Ara Haan was a shy, timid girl.

Ava Haan was a charismatic, confident girl.

Two opposites, one living a hellish life and the other, a heavenly life.

Now, what if they were twins?

"Kya!" The girl flinched as she was pushed to the walls of her very own classroom. The chair she was sitting on just recently fell to the ground, her pencil rolling off the table. She was Ara Haan.

"I thought we warned you not to come back to school again? " The beautiful girl with coal-colored hair narrowed her eyes, a wicked smile forming. Her face was so close Ara could practically smell the girl's heavy makeup. It was Yomi Lee, the most popular girl in the grade, popular enough that the upperclassmen guys would run to the lower building just to see her face. Popular enough that everyone else would ignore what they see.

Self-study time was almost over, and Ara mentally sighed at the fact that the Evil Trio (she was pretty proud to say she thought of this name herself) returned from their hour-long trip to the restroom earlier than she would have wanted them to.

"S-sorry." She whispered quietly, looking down at the wooden floor.

"Speak up, bitch!" A brunette, Nari, slapped her hard on the cheek. The noisy classroom went silent for a moment, all eyes fixed on Ara cupping her cheek gently, and then the eyes slowly averted and the room was just as loud as before.

It's like this every day, anyways. It... stings...

She could already feel the tears well up in her eyes.

"Aww, is the little girl crying again?" A blonde girl giggled. Her name was Hani, probably the most sadistic one of the three.

Ara felt her tears fall when her flower hairpin was snatched from her hair, into Yomi's hands.

"Give it back!" She yelled, defensively.

I can't lose that. Anything but that...Please...

The three girls giggled.

"Give it back!" She yelled again, this time reaching out for it, only to be pulled back by both Nari and Hani.

Yomi chuckled. "Don't think you can-" She was interrupted by a voice yelling, "The teacher's coming!"

"Ah, fuck, whatever." She threw the hairpin at the open window next to Ara, and the ebony haired girl managed to catch it, though just barely.

Thank goodness. She thought, clutching the pin close to her chest.

"Ara? What are you doing there? Class is starting." The teacher, who seemed to have come in right after Yomi made it to her own, looked at her quizzically. Ara gave her a slight smile.

"Sorry, I'll get back to my seat now." The teacher gave a short nod, taking a quick glance at the fallen chair and then focusing her attention on the class.

She rushed to her chair and quickly took a seat, opening her textbook to the page they were instructed to turn to, then fastened the pin on her hair. And soon enough, the teacher's lecture was drowned away, as she was lost in her own thoughts.

Why does Yomi hate me so much? We even used to be... friends... Did I do something wrong? Where did I make a mistake? All this school taught me is to not trust anyone. They'll just stab you in the back anyways.

"Ava~" A certain green-haired elf ran up to the surprised brownish-ebony haired girl, leaping on top of her. Or at least tried to.

"..." The angel quickly pulled her in closer to him, her face buried in his chest.

"T-thanks, Ain." Ava turned bright red, and he patted her hair gently as she looked up.

"Be careful next time." He smiled brightly.

"Grr, Ain." Rena growled, pushing herself up from the concrete floor. "You interrupted me from getting my Devi."

"She's not yours, she's mine, Ms. Elf." He responded firmly, adding in a mean glare.

A purple haired girl standing not so far away looked at Ava, who was still bright red and completely out of it, then the two bickering members. She sighed.

"Damn, they've been dating for about a month and she's still like that?" She suddenly felt a warm arm wrapped around her shoulder. When she looked up, she jumped, pushed, and screeched as loud as she could.

"E-E-E-Elsword! D-Don't go scaring people like that!" Aisha exclaimed loudly at Elsword, now on the ground, which gained the attention of the three who she was looking at previously.

"Elsword! Aisha!" Rena waved her arms, completely forgetting all about Ain.

"Where are the others?" Elsword asked as he got up, looking around the open campus.

"We're here." A monotone voice said, and both Elsword and Aisha turned around.

The five of them saw the significantly larger group trotting to them, except for the short, white haired girl who was speeding towards them at quite a rapid speed.

"Ava!" The Timoria exclaimed, raising her arms as if she was expecting a hug.

"No." Ain said coldly, more pissed off. Once again, she was pulled towards him.

"Wah!" Lu fell over, and if it wasn't for Ciel who had to quickly use a skill to her aid as fast as he could, she would have fallen over.

"Ain, you meanie!" The small girl pouted, and Ciel chuckled nervously. "Sorry there, Ara."

"D-Don't worry about it." It would have been much easier to take her seriously if she wasn't blushing bright red.

"It's pretty interesting to see the Hell Queen like this, don't you think? You're amazing, Ain!" Chung let out a laugh, with Eve right by her side.

"She is very different from the Ava we see in battles against those demons." She agreed.

"I think she may be overheating." Raven stated, watching as the girl's face first turned as red as an apple, making its way to becoming the color of Elsword's hair. Finally, she ended up fainting into Ain's arms when his hand touched her forehead.

"Aah! Ain! What did you do?!" Aisha scolded him loudly, earning looks from others walking around the campus.

"Well... I was wondering if she got a fever or not." He stated, a slight puzzled expression on his face.

"Oh, Ain. Genius in battles but completely clueless to romance." Elsword sighed out loud.

"Kukuku, like you're the one to talk." Lu replied.

"No worries, no worries. That's what makes them so cute after all~ Let's get her to the infirmary." Rena giggled, pushing the gang to the nearest entrance of the building.

This was Velder Private Academy, a school for those peculiar beings possessing powers used to get rid of demons. A school the outside world doesn't know about. It was the students' job to protect the continent of Elrios, fighting off demons that may lurk around, especially in dungeons.

And they were the El Gang, the most popular group on campus for having both a diverse background, their strength. And of course, despite being the strongest, they were kind enough to accept any quest their schoolmates needed help with, with no discrimination (Though as they advanced to their third jobs, rumors spread that half of them were much more frightening than before).

"Ain, would you like me to take over?" Raven asked him.

"No. She isn't heavy." He replied, his grip tighter.

"Liar, you just don't want someone else touching Ava, am I right?" Elsword smirked. A cold glare from the Bluhen was all that was needed for that smile to immediately disappear.

Ara quietly walked back to her house, her dirty and dripping wet backpack hanging from one shoulder.

"My homework got wet... again..." She quietly mumbled to herself.

"Oi. Ara." A hand was placed at her shoulder.

She froze and tensed up at the sound of the voice. Who was it? It couldn't have been the trio, it was too deep.

I-is it...

She turned around slowly, the fear in her eyes clearly visible.

"What are you getting so scared of?" Ara caught a glimpse of the familiar lilac hair, and almost let out a breath of relief.

"N-Nothing, Add." She smiled slightly, shifting her body so she could face him.

"Did you think it was [them]?" He asked slowly.

And she couldn't say no.

"That's understandable. It's only been a few weeks since [that] happened. Why's your backpack wet? Was it those shit clowns again?"

Again, she didn't deny.

"Haa, when are they going to learn?" He scratched his already messy hair furiously.

"It's... ok..."

"No, it's not. I'll have to pay those bitches a visit. With my newest invention, of course." With a small smirk, he cracked his knuckles.

Add Kim was a genius. As the prodigy of math and science, he always ranked as the top #1 on the leader-board, with no losses. He was also one of the most popular guys in the school, too. Despite his good grades, his good looks and cold attitude gave him the title of the "Cold Prince".

"Please don't worry about it." She continued walking towards her home.

"Well, if you say so." He jogged up a bit, trying to catch up with her fast walking. "Do you need me to take you home or anything? We wouldn't want [that] happening again."

"No, I believe I will be fine by myself."

"Well, if you really think so. Come to me if you need help or anything." The white-haired male walked the other way, and Ara silently watched as he made a turn.

She sighed.

Why was he being so kind? He's the only one that talks to me. Maybe he'll be like Yomi and the others afterwards. And leave me behind.

Hey guys! I didn't like the previous version of this story, so I sort of changed up a lot of stuff! The old one will be deleted and it will be replaced with this one. Also, who do you think should we shipped with Ava (Devi)? It will be Ain for sure, but I can't choose between Herrscher and Bluhen :C For now, I'll keep it at Bluhen, and depending on which one gets more votes, I'll either leave or change it accordingly! Thank you for reading!
