Introduction

Do you believe in vampires? Well, I don't. My names Helena and I'm sixteen years old. Now, you maybe asking yourself why I don't believe in vampires. I'll tell you. Vampires are a joke…and anyone who believes them is a stupid jerk. I don't mean to be rude really. I just like to say what's on my mind.

Normally, I wouldn't be saying such things. It just gets me mad when people ask me, " Do you believe in werewolf's? Ghosts? Vampires?" Now, I would just tell them to fuck off or something, but…I would just smile and say, "I need to see it to believe it." And they usually leave me alone or they keep asking me. Although, I was wrong. Vampires do exist. We just keep doubting them.

I'm about to tell you a depressing chapter in my life. I thought I would never tell anyone about this…but I need to get it out there. Out to the world. So that everyone can know. I hope you're ready, because I'm not.

Chapter One

It was the beginning of a new year in high school. New teachers and new freshmen! See back when I was a freshman, I had not gotten a penny thrown at me. Never. How'd I do it? People thought I was a senior. Boy, were they wrong. Anyhow, my school has changed a bit. Instead of wearing whatever it's now uniforms. Why? Let's just say the people who graduated from here did something really bad. I mean really bad.

I sat in my desk waiting for people to come in and start the day. My friends Daisy, Crystal, and Selene came in laughing like idiots. Selene stopped to look at me and hit Daisy and Crystal on the head. All three looked at me and laughed. I looked at them with careless eyes and a plain face.

"Helena, you look so different without your usual blackness." Daisy giggled.

"Yeah. With that uniform you look really cute!" Selene said as she sat on my desk.

"Yep. It shows how skinny you are." Crystal smiled.

I gave out a low sigh and said, "I've wear clothes that showed me off."

I looked down at my uniform then at my hands. I hate these uniforms. I'll tell you why. For girls, you have to wear black skirts that are almost to the knee. Black dress boots, black knee high socks, and a white shirt with a red bow. Then they give you a black jacket to match everything. On the right side of that jacket there is a pocket. For some reason they tell us not to put anything in there. For the boys it's the same but black pants and a red tie. While I'm explaining this Selene is hitting my back but I pretend that I don't feel her.

"Well?" Selene asked.

"Well, what?" I asked her back which she hates.

"What schedule do you have?"

"Oh, Day Class."

"Yay! We're all together!" She hugged everyone but mostly fell on me.

That's something new about this school. We have something called Day Class and Night Class. I don't know why really. Everyone I know is in Day Class. The bell had ringed and my classmates ran to their seats. The Teacher, Mr. Jimenez called out names and once he called out my name I knew something was wrong.

"Helena, I need to see you after school today." He said looking at his computer.

Everyone in the room pointed at me and said I was in trouble. I gave everyone my look, which read, "Fuck off you little fuckers". They all stopped and looked back at Mr. Jimenez. He said nothing at first but smiled at me. I looked away not wanting to smile back. The bell rung and everyone picked up their books and left. I hung outside in the hallways writing words on my notebook and not caring about life. But that didn't last for long. Daisy, Crystal, and Selene found me and pushed me into Physics. I hate this class. It's boring as hell and I know how to do everything. Normally, what I would do is chew gum or write on the tables.

As I walked to the back row, I was stopped by Zero. I took a step back and almost fell over a chair until he caught me. He looked at me with his blue-green eyes. Zero is one of the most popular boy in the school. Guys want to be him. Girls think they can change him, mostly want to date him.

"Well, hello, Helena." He said looking through me and pulling up to a standing position. I just pushed him out of my way and took my seat. Crystal wrapped her arms around my neck as Selene slapped my shoulders.

"Helena! You talked to Zero!" Crystal blushed while looking at the back of his head.

"Why don't you two go out?" Selene asked while writing on her hand.

"No way! Helena and Zero do NOT go together!" Crystal shouted then covered her mouth while everyone looked at her.

Crystal has a huge crush on Zero ever since she moved here. Once she saw him it was, as she would put it, love at first sight. He has white hair really and pale skin. I can see why she likes him so much. Zero turned slowly and looked at Crystal who sank behind me. The teacher, Mr. Lind, came in and made a loud sound with his notebook. Everyone jumped and sat in their seats.

"Ok. Listen here. When I call out your name say 'here'." He said eyeing everyone.

I sat waiting and writing gothic symbols on my notebook.

"Ms. Cross."

Selene coughed and tried to get my attention. I looked at her out of the corner of my eye.

"Ms. Helena Cross." He repeated

"Here." I said.

"Is something wrong with your hearing, Ms. Cross?" asked Mr. Lind. He was trying to be smart.

"No, It's your voice sir."

"Then maybe you should get a hearing check."

"Well, maybe you need to speak English." I said smiling.

Everyone burst into laughter. People fell out of their chairs; some just didn't get what I said. His name was Mr. Englind, but he told us to call him Lind. Funny no? I'm not being mean, ok? I just hate it when he calls on me to repeat everything he says. Sometimes I tell him, 'huh?' or just say what's on my mind.

"Ms. Cross…" he said, "let's not start the day off this way. Okay?"

"Sure," I said in a low voice, "You stupid bitch…"

Crystal, Selene, and Daisy giggled. They tried their best not to laugh and I could tell.

"What was that?" He asked looking at me.

"I said I have a bad itch."

"Oh." Mr. Lind said and carried on.

I saw Zero's shoulders shake. I knew he was laughing. I could careless though. Hours passed by fasted and the class was over. I got up and ran into the hallways. There I was stopped by Zero and The Headmaster.

(A.n.): Please review this and I'll post Chapter Two. Did I mention that I hate Flamers?
