Chess Club [5PM FHT]

Ami was very very nervously waiting for those who signed up to come into the appropriate classroom. She has gotten some soda and juice as well as chips and cookies. Her computer is set up and she has some handouts. There are also several chess boards up.

When everyone shows up, she starts speaking.

"Welcome everyone. This is Chess Club. You do not need to know how to play to join." She nodded to Aziraphale. "Our adviser doesn't. Yet." She grinned.

"Today is really just to get to know each other and such, but i do have several chess programs on the lap-top for people to look at and some handouts explaining the history of chess." She gestured to the handouts.

"Um, that is all from me..."

Billy examined one of the chess boards.

"Hey" Ami said in greeting. "Want a handout?"

Naomi Wildman

"Yeah." Billy said. "That sounds good. How long have you been playing?"

"Since i was about 3, so almost a dozen years" Ami replied, handing him a handout. "My Grandfather taught me and i would play with him and his friends."

"Did you win?" he asked, skimming the hand out.

"Sometimes." Ami said modestly. "Most times." she admitted, blushing. "They humoured me, knowing i had no one else to interact with."

"Now see aren't you glad you came here?" Billy smiled.

"Yes, actually."

"So, how's this work?"

"Well, there are two sides. Black and white, there are pieces. They all move differently. You move your pieces, your opponent moves theirs." She picked up a king and twisted it in her hands. "The goal is to take your opponent's king. In the process you take all the other pieces too."

Princess Irulan Corrino

"You make it sound simple. I always heard it was supposed to be really complicated."

"It is complicated to be good at it. It is very simple to learn how to play."

"Okay," Billy said, looking at her. "Teach me."

"Very well." Ami replied with a slight bow. Picking each piece up in turn, she explained the rules (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess#Rules) of the game. how each piece moved, who did what when and how the end-conditions were met.

Aziraphale was a little nervous about advising for something he really didn't know much about, but he was quite willing to give it a try.

Hopefully no one would ask him any questions about chess, not until he'd had a chance to do some reading, but he was there to help as best he could.
