Like poisoned knives
With no mercy….."

Came the sound of the small alarm clock as a smooth pale hand suddenly clamped down roughly, resulting in the tiny machine being turned off.
My eyes were heavy as I opened them, I yawned shivering from the cold morning air throwing my legs over the side. I glanced to see my alarm clock set to silent, still showing 6:00 in big red numbers. Giving another yawn I headed towards the bathroom.
Hi, I'm Allen Walker, yeah I know, weird name for a girl. But that's what my foster father named me and I'm going to stick with it. I never actually cared that my name is Allen, I know is a guy's name but I never had a problem with it.
I'm a 16 year old Junior in high school, and tomorrow is my first day at Black Order Academy so I have to get ready to go to the dorms today.
Walking into the shower, I quickly freshened up . When I was done I walked into my closet, and grabbed my clothes, got dressed and looked over all my stuff. I had about six boxes full of all the things I would be needing for school, clothes, books, toiletries, pictures, and anything else I'd need to decorate my new dorm room.
As I looked into one of the boxes I saw a picture of me and Mana, memories flooding back into my mind.
When I was born, my parents were repulsed at my strange arm and my snow white hair, so they sent me to an orphanage. I grew up there for almost 4 years, it was difficult for me to get adopted due to my unusual appearance, but then Mana came along, he saw past my features and adopted me. I loved him dearly.
But then, when I was about 11, me and Mana were walking across the street to the grocery store, a drunk driver ran a red light, Mana was able to push me out of the way, but in doing so Mana was killed
So then I was sent back to the orphanage, but then Master came along, and adopted me. Apparently he was good friends with Mana, and pitied me, thinking that a little street rat should be 'taken care of'.
But apparently he was womanizer, alcoholic, and had a problem with debts, and because of those debts I had to learn how to cheat and gamble in order to live.
Anyway, after my quick lapse down memory lane I placed the picture back in the box and closed it, taking them all down to Master's car. I gave a quick look into the mirror to see if everything was alright, I was wearing a long sleeved white shirt with a baggy gray t-shirt over it, and a pair of torn up black jeans, tucked into a pair of gray boots. I wore a white glove over my left hand and a small black ribbon was around my neck.
I stared into my reflection closely looking over the rather large scar that ran down my left eye. I got it when I was about 6 when some priest tried to "exorcise" me. All that psycho did was cover me with holy water and cut my eye, leaving a huge old scar with a pentacle at the top.
When I was done observing myself, I grabbed my small black backpack, and headed out to Master's car, he said that I was allowed to use it, for the day and he'd come by and pick it up tomorrow. He was probably just happy that he could have the house to himself, and be able to have any woman he wanted over, or travel the world with woman, bleeding them dry. Even though he still did that anyway when I was living here...
…
I entered the main hall of the beautiful castle entrance, white marble sparkled in each and every area. a grand mahogany desk was to my right, whereas a giant mahogany glass unit stood to my left, littered with trophies and awards of all different kinds.
Slowly walking in the direction of the desk, a woman with long blond hair in a rather painful looking tight bun, swiveled in her chair, turning to me with a bored expression on her face, red lipstick applied a little to heavily.
"Can I help you?" she asked rather rudely.
I looked at her for a second and shook my head, "Uh yeah I'm Allen walker, I'm suppose to come here to get my dorm assignment," apparently I'm suppose to be rooming with Road Kamelot, My best friend since childhood, she pulled some strings and asked her dad, after all he is the principal.
Lowering her horned glasses the woman nodded, before tuning back to her computer, typing away and printing out a small piece of paper. "Here you are, this is your schedule, and your room number should be labeled at the top." she handed me the paper with another quick nod and turned back to her computer once again.
When I was sure that she wouldn't be saying anything else to me I grabbed my things and headed to my new room, the room I would be using for the rest of the year.
I made my way to room 420 on the fourth floor I slowly placed the key inside the keyhole and gave it a twist; I heard a soft 'click' and opened the door. It was a fairly big room, with a bunk bed two night tables, two desks along with two dressers and fairly large bathroom.
I grabbed my boxes, claiming the bottom bunk for myself, realizing that now would probably be a good idea to start unpacking my things. After unpacking the important stuff, I started unpacking my clothes; I folded most of the pants and hung the shirts and sweaters. I have to admit it I'm a bit of a neat freak, I like everything to be in order.
I began placing books on the shelf above one of the desks, and then I picked up my back pack, placing it on the desk and opened it. Two pair of golden wings came out of it and a little golden ball came out "You sleep well Timcampy?" I asked, he just lazily flapped his wings and landed on my pillow "I guess not" Tim is a golem, Master Cross gave me on my 13th birthday, and Tim is like my other best friend so I took him with me.
When I was done I laid on the bed and looked at the bottom of the top bunk, strange even being in this new room for just a couple minutes, I already felt at home, but then again I think anything could feel like home when you live in that disaster area Master called a house. Opening my eyes I glanced at the clock next to me as it read 3:00, huh, looks like I must have dozed off.
Suddenly I heard a click and the door opened "Ally you here?" Came Road's voice walking into the room her eyes landed on me and she quickly ran to over hopping on my bed giving me a crushing hug. "Ally I'm so glad to see you!"
I rolled my eyes at her; she's one of the better people here, and most interesting. She's got deep sapphire blue hair, and its really spiky like naturally spiky. She has a couple piercings up her ears and gold eyes, I mean it too, they are like liquid gold.
Amazingly she has the voice of an angel; seriously this girl is an opera singer. A freaking soprano opera singer, she's even won a bunch of competitions to boot! I think she holds the title for 'Best in Country: Under 20'. Yeah she's that good and the music teacher takes full advantage of that every time there's a soprano solo in a song.
"Road... it's good to see you too, but... I need to... breathe." I gasped out, I could tell she was happy because the hug she was giving me wasn't letting me breathe.
She released me from her death hug only to forcefully pull me off my bed. "Sorry, I'm just so glad you're here, this is going to be so great!" She grinned, looking back at me with her bright cat like eyes.
Yeah great, I bet when people see my arm though it won't be so great, But I guess a long as road is here it won't be so bad.
"Hey, Ally? Are you okay, you're staring off into space," Road stated with a sharp frown as she tugged on one of the loose locks covering my eye. I chuckled and pushed away her hand.
"I'm fine, I'm just thinking about how this school is going to be."
"Yeah, I bet, but I think you'll have a good time." her smile was sincere and yet I could still see a hint a mischief hidden behind her pools of golden brown, she called eyes. "Oh I know, do you want to-"
"If you girl's dare pull a giant prank on your first day of school, I am not going to cover your asses," said another voice from the doorway, where a tall brunette man stood, a top hat slanted upon his head.
"Tyki, whatever do you mean?" Road questioned fluttering her eyes to make her look innocent.
"What I mean is last time you two did one of your pranks, you, Allen, and Devit ended up in a tree, upside down mind you, and Jasdero got stuck in a ditch right underneath!"
"Yeah but the toilets in all the washrooms were over-flowing for a week!" I exclaimed happily falling back on my bed clutching my stomach.
"I still don't understand how you managed that, But you do have to admit that watching the entire thing was pretty fun though, right Tyki." Road added in with a giggle and a clap falling on my bed with me.
And this ladies and gentlemen is how my first year at Black order Academy began.
