Kristopher took note of the rude student's nonchalant greeting towards Lily. Maybe too daring for a Guardian to acknowledge his Protoge, but until now Kris hadn't noticed Lily approach another student in class, not to mention a male. It would be less suspicious stalking the same gender anyways...

As the bell rang for lunch, Kris took his time getting up, stretching his taut limbs like he was taught to in his karate class. Today's 2 tests had taken their toll, though he confidently assumed he did well on them, "enough to keep Mom off my back." More importantly, he was waiting for the rude student to make his move, as Lily left the classroom beforehand.

Trailing him several paces away, Kris followed the rude student into the cafeteria. In a bold move, Kris lined up right behind him, to reduce time between getting lunch and continuing to follow him wherever. Absentmindedly, Kris flicked through his Neuro Linker's programs, checking the list of students already in VR (all students were required to sign in with real names on the school network), and through his backdoor any Duel Avatars; so far none.
