Ok, hello fellow readers! Rayestar is here to enchant you with this story! So, before I begin, I just want to say that I will not thoroughly explain the background information of each and every character (simply because there is 6 OCs … too much) so if you want to learn more about them, go the following link here: gallery/45842416. So, enjoy "You're Never Alone" …
You know those moments when you feel that you are utterly alone and that there is no one who can help you get out of your dilemma? Well, that would be the cases of 6 girls who seem to struggle in their lives, only having each other for support. They aren't always together, however, and when they are alone they have no one to help them, to confirm them that everything would be alright. Yup, just the 6 of them …
They are all seniors attending high school in Miami, Florida and face the world alone together, now suffering through the most treacherous torture: English Class.
Gwendolyn was dozing off in her seat, golden eyes struggling to stay open and short brown hair falling in her face as her head tilts back and forward begging for rest. Her friend, Daria, seemed to be struggling with her red eyes and purple ponytail as well. Alexia kept her head up, blue eyes at the teacher and long, waist length orange hair loose, as well as Teralyn, who was also taking notes, light lavender eyes glancing back and forth from the teacher to her notebook through her glasses and dark red waist length hair in a braid that slightly swung in movement. Eden held her head in her hand, looking at the teacher with dark brown eyes and playing with her short blonde hair every once in a while. Bellatrix wasn't even paying attention and was too busy focusing her light blue eyes drawing her favorite couple from Soul Eater, Maka Albarn and Soul Eater, (even though she wasn't anywhere near as good at drawing as Eden), her 2 braided ponytails sometimes getting in her face when she titled her head down for a better glance of her work .
The group of six waited for the bell to ring, signifying that its lunch time. Tick tock tick tock tick tock … RRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGG GGGGGGGGG! "FINALLY, LUNCH TIME! LET'S GO!" Bellatrix yelled as she ran for the lunch line, as usual. The other 5 followed suit and they all got their lunch and sat at a table, chit chatting and eating. "So, who is excited about tonight?! I love when we have a slumber party over the weekend!" said Bellatrix, who chowed down on her burger. "Yeah, and we finally get to watch Wreck-it Ralph. I've been wanting to see that movie." Eden replied, drinking her white milk … she hated chocolate. "Yeah, I want to see the racing scenes. They seem awesome!" said Alexia, who has a special connection to racing. Daria added "I just want to get away from the house and avoid being scolded for losing last week's basketball game … again. *sigh*". Teralyn simply listened with Gwendolyn, both quietly eating their food. Though they didn't speak, the others knew they were excited too.
Suddenly, Teralyn's head was met with a meatball and everyone turned around to see Serenity, most popular bitch in the school, along with her stereotypical pose, who follow her like if she's a goddess that blessed them with extra privileges. The group laughed at them a Teralyn tried her best to wipe off any tomato sauce that remained, while Gwendolyn and Daria got up and walked over. Daria started off by saying "Hey, I think you owe Tera an apology!" arms crossed over her white and purple track shirt. "You're right. I'm sorry … sorry that such disgusting, moronic creatures like you guys even exist, especially with the same rights as us special people. You guys shouldn't be able to do what we do … maybe I should be president to fix that one day." She replied with a smirk on her face, black curly hair shimmering in the sunlight. "Well, how about we see just how special you really are!" Gwendolyn said, pulling up her short sleeves on her black T-shirt. Serenity cowered away, one of her followers, whom was a big guy, saying "You want a fight, cause I'll give you a fight." Not afraid of him towering over her, she said "Bring it on, chubby!" she said as they were about to brawl. Daria got between the 2 fighters, grabbing Gwendolyn's arm "don't Gwen. It's not worth it and we don't want you missing the sleep over tonight just because of detention. Gwen huffed, but loosened her tense state, walking away from the bitchy group back to their friends, who were either consoling a sad Teralyn or still helping look for any tomato sauce.
"Don't worry about them Tera. They're just a bunch of jack-asses." Gwen said, her choice of vocabulary in her occasional times of speech being funny enough to make Teralyn feel better. Daria joined in by saying "Yeah, besides we should be excited about tonight! I love when it's just the six of us." "It's always been just the six of us." Eden replied, throwing out her food out as the others followed. The bell rang, ending lunch and showing that they need to separate to their classes. Sadly, they only had English class together, the only class they have with the most boring teacher ever!
After the other classes finished, it was time to go home. Each girl separated, but agreed to meet at Teralyn's house. Alexia arrived home to find her mother working on the computer. "hey mom, I'm home. I'll be getting ready to sleep over." Her mom replies "There are no boys coming, right? You know how many times I've told you about men being little sleeze-balls who only use you and then ditch you when they no longer want you!" "I know mom and no, it's just me, Tera, Gwen, Dee, Bella, and Ed." Alexia replied in a dull voice, heading for her room.
Bellatrix burst through the door and did a twirl, her black skirt flowing with such grace, as she yelled "HELLO I'M HOME!" no one replied, indicating that she was alone … again. Bellatrix sighed and went to the kitchen to find a note that said "hello honey, your mother and I are working late, but you go head over to your friend's house and enjoy that sleep over" on the fridge. Bellatrix then went to her room to pack, trudging along the way in the big, empty house.
Daria entered her house after running the long distance from school to her house. She was panting lightly, but not to an extreme. She tried to sneak by her parents to her room, but she wasn't so lucky. They blocked her path from her room, staring at her with blue and green eyes … not her eyes. Yes, she lived with step-parents who always push her beyond her limits. Her mother was the first to speak "honey, before you pack to waste time with your friends, why don't you practice a few rounds of basketball so that the losing streak doesn't continue?" and before Daria can reject, they pushed her outside. She grumbled under her breath and shot a few rounds until they let her in to pack.
Gwendolyn slowly walks on her way to her home-the orphanage. On her way, she bumps into someone and falls. She looks up to see it was the big guy from earlier who challenged her. He glanced at her and immediately stared at her, cracking his knuckles "You ready to finish what we started, or are you too scared to fight me?" once he said the word "scared", Gwendolyn snapped and punched him in the face, knocking him off his feet. "I. am .Not! SCARED! FEEL MY WRATH ASSHOLE!" and the 2 fought, sending endless amounts of punches, kicks, and pain to the other until Gwendolyn pinned her arms on the floor by the big guy. He looked down with an evil smirk, but that was wiped off his face when Gwen made the final blow, kneeing him there hard! He fell off her and held himself there as she got up, glanced down in ager, and continued home to pack with a bruise on her cheek.
Eden walked into her house, telling her mom that she was home. Eden went ahead and packed, but had extra time before she had to leave, so she began to work on her sculpture made of metal, trying to do something with the elements. Her mother walked in, but scoffed at what her daughter was doing. "Eden, you should try to do something more productive in your spare time instead of wasting time on metal trash." But Eden replied "well, dad would've been ok with it. H e taught me how to do this after all." "well, I wish he hadn't because I notice that your grades have been dropping. You are at a C average now and you shouldn't waste time on this!" "well, I like to do this! It's my talent!" "well, it's a pretty useless talent. Maybe you should find another. I'll be in my room, but yell when you leave." And with that her mother left, leaving a depressed Eden to continue her work.
Teralyn was busy setting up everything for the grand sleep over. "sleeping bags … check. Popcorn and endless supply of junk food … check. Wreck-it Ralph … check. Well, that seems to be it." And Teralyn flew on the couch, deciding to play some Tomb Raider before her friends came. She lived alone since her parents died when she was young and she started living by herself, working to pay rent and getting help financially from her neighbor, Oscar. Teralyn sighed as she thought about how earlier on her way home she had seen families pass by, kids hugging their daddies and kissing their mommies. She wishes she had someone to share that kind of affection with. It sounded nice. Until then, she would settle with her besties.
It was 6:00 p.m. Time for the sleep over! All the girls arrived at Teralyn's house, coming in to find a mountain of junk for them to last the weekend, 6 sleeping bags, and a flat screen t.v paused on Tomb Raider. "Sorry guys, I was playing while waiting. Lara Croft is just so bad ass." Tera said as the 5 settled down. They all were about to chat when Alexia stated "Gwen, where did you get that bruise?" and everyone turned to Gwen to see the purple bruise. "I bumped into that jerk from earlier and we fought. I may have a bruise on my cheek, but he has one on his kiwis for sure." She replied with a devious smirk. They all laughed and then got to watching the movie. "finally, we get to watch Wreck-it Ralph!" was Bellatrix's comment before it started.
By the time it was over, they were all cheering, Bellatrix crying tears of joy. "That was so *sniff* BEAUTIFUL!" and they laughed at her child-like behavior. "Man, that turbo was pretty crazy and creepy when a cyborg *shudder* but he is a pretty good racer" said Alexia. Bellatrix added "True, but oh my god that Felix guy was so ADORABLE! And him and sergeant Calhoun are PERFECT together!" and they all made their own comments. While they gorged in food and continued speaking, they failed to notice that the television was on a glitch screen and by the time they did notice, it was too late.
"WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?!" yelled Eden as they all stared at the glitch scene turn into a blue swirling vortex. Oh and the worst part is that once it appeared, it started sucking everything in, like a vacuum, so the girls struggled to hold on. Bellatrix had almost fallen in, if Gwendolyn had not grabbed her first. "DON'T LET GO GWEN!" she yelled as Gwen stared at her, confirming her with it. Alexia and Daria hid in the other corner of the room opposite to Gwendolyn and Bellatrix and Eden and Teralyn held onto the couch, holding onto each other. "WHAT'S GOING ON?" Daria yelled as the force only got stronger. "I DON'T KNOW!" Eden yelled back. It continued to get stronger until Bellatrix felt herself slip out of Gwen's grip and she fell in. "BELLA! NO!" Gwendolyn yelled, only for her to slip as well and fall in. " GWEN, BELLA!" Daria yelled as she had tried to reach out for them, but failed and ended up getting sucked in herself. "DEE!" the remaining 3 yelled and the force only got stronger until the remaining 3 soon slipped and fell themselves. 6 screams were the last things that were heard before the vortex closed, only leaving the mess behind.
YAY, CHAPTER 1 DONE! MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!
