Scribbling noises could be heard, an avalanche of notebooks falling unto the table.

While the man in the middle of the class started going on about some math problems almost nobody could ever comprehend, Maya tore a page out of her notebook.

She converged the thin layer of the paper into a fully armored plane. Fully set on destroying this world structure, she named the weapon of mass destruction.

" Fly, Destroyer!"

The newborn " Destroyer" flew to land in the hair of a personn placed in the first row.

The noise she made while launching the object was enough to grab the attention of everyone there.

The girl angrily tore the plane into million pieces, in cold blood. Downplaying her handiwork. 

" Destoyer! How could you do this! He was so young! Is this the horrors of war?'

Eiel was baffled at how much of this girl he couldn't understand. Why was she so happy? Why was she so outgoing? 

Trying to understand the inner workings of her brain proved unfruitful.

" Sakurasagi, I'm trying to teach ,so quiet down."

The teacher raised concern. Maya raised her arm to form a salute. As if this was a running joke routine.

"Yes,teach!"

She proceeded to start scribbling after this call out. Drawing on the paper of the  notebook.

As Eiel continued to observe her actions, he could denote she was particularly gifted in arts.

Intrigued, he continued to observe her endeavors. 

She had no intention to stand still ever and so, just continued to play out her little scenarios in the classroom. Pushing the piece of art she made aside.

In some way, Eiel admired her tenacity. While he accepted he had to endure the pain of eating a cake comprised only of formulas, she just didn't care.

Contrary to him, she never tried to hide it. Wich he admired.

" I hate mathematics..."

Silently complained Eiel as everyone left out the classroom, saved by the angels ringing the bell.

As he exited,an arm wrapped around him, offering a familiar sensation. He immediately pushed it back.

" Ah sorry, Ei Ei. I forgot this makes you uncomfortable."

Maya said,quite confused. Her shiny smile replaced with an expression of utter doubt.

" By the way, what was the deal with that plane?"

She assumed a firm stance, lowered her head and wiped invisible tears.

" Destroyer,you will be remembered..."

" I really can't follow you,Maya."

She tilted her head, impatient to hear what he meant by this.

" Why are you so hyper?"

She paused for some time before looking straight into his eyes.

" What does "hyper' means?"

" Let's just say you're overly excited."

" I'm just trying to live my life to the fullest. You know what they say? When life gives you chocolate, eat the whole box."

She was met with silence.

" Maya...That's not the expression..."

" I mean, if someone gave me a whole box of chocolate. I would eat it all."

He felt like she winked as she uttered her viewpoint of the made up proverb she spouted.

" Maya...It's a proverb..."

" What do you mean, wouldn't you eat a box of chocolate too?"

Her weird leaps of logic managed to stutter him. Leaving the man stuck in place.

" You know what, whatever."

As he cut this discussion short, Maya couldn't help but fidgeting.

" Ei Ei, do you..."

He raised an eyebrow,  already concerned about her potential question.

" Like..."

" Why are you talking so slowly?" 

Unable to say the rest of her sentence, she ran away. Leaving Eiel speechless.

Giving her back to him, she avoided showing the colour that carefully placed itself on her skin.

" Is she actually shy?"

He immediately revoked this supposition.

" No, that can't be right."

In his little world, it was rather impossible for someone to create a shell to hide some insecurities about themselves. Ironically, he was the same. Never ever taking account they were made of the same mindset. 

" I should get going or I'm gonna be late." 

The day progressed rather fast. Finally freed from the horrible idea of studying numbers and science, he felt relaxed. 

Altough, he had forgot one thing. Club activities were obligatory. 

He felt like this was a master plan from this school, in order the prevention of a so called " Go home" club.

" ( What a pain. I don't wanna join a club.)" 

Trying to go on the opposite direction of the place where all the clubrooms were placed, he felt as if an invisible force was dragging him.

The grip had a familiar sensation to it. Observing what crazed individual had taken an hold of him, he recognized Maya.

"( Of course.)"

Not confrontative in the slightest, he gently told her to remove her hand. Asking himself in the process why she was so clingy.

" Maya, you should really get rid of this habit of grabbing me." 

Flustered, she finally released her firm grip. 

" Sorry. I did it again." 

Her expression of sorrow was quickly replaced with a wide smile. 

" Maybe it's embarrassing because you like it. Hihi."

She laughed with her hand in front of her mouth, her smug aura increasing.

She striked a full blown hit as he deviated his sight from her, red casting on his cheeks. 

Being a master of his craft at avoiding situation like this, he pointed out to the massive sign in front of the door .

" Maya, where are we?" 

" It's a the room of a club. So, in the place with all the clubrooms ."

He started malaxing his temples, unsure of what kind of activity this kind of club indulged in. 

" Who approved this crap?" 

" Come on, don't you think it sounds funny?" 

He facepalmed at Maya childlike wonder for a club that clearly was no good.

" I don't mind if you wanna join it but that's it for me. I'm going home." 

" I don't really wanna join them."

As usual, Maya logic was left out of the window. 

" Why did you bring me here, Maya?" 

" I wanted to show you this sign, don't you think it's kinda riddiculous ?" 

She laughed under her breath.

On the sign on the door, they could read: 

" REJECTION CLUB"

A shady character doing a peace sign was placed at the bottom of the writing, sticking it's tongue out.

" What the hell do people do in a rejection club ?" 

The door of the room opened to reveal a tall woman wearing a lab coat. He recognized her as one of the teacher that was on the podium during the speech he showed up late in.

The woman, seeming freshly awake, responded to his question.

" Isn't it obvious, a rejection club gather around everything related to rejection. For instance, let's say you were rejected by you school of choice, you declare war on them. Someone rejects your offer for dating? You punch them until they accept.  Your parents rejected you at birth? "

She striked her fist into her palm.

" Well simple. You show the little bitches a piece of you."

The woman expressed with anger.

" ( Who let this personn become a teacher?")

Maya and Eiel couldn't help but ask themselves.
