Heart Knight
It always happened like this, Sam was picked last for a team, and worst part? She was the extra! Sam was always the downer kid in P.E., she mostly exceled in English. After P.E. was over, Sam sulked to her next class, which was math, her worst subject, numbers trully confused her.
After that, she walked to lunch with her friend Vicky.
"Can you believe it?" Vicky yelped in happiness.
"What?" Sam was now sitting at the table, looking depressed.
"They're redoing Sailor Moon!" Sam looked at Vicky with interest.
"Truthfully?"
"Yeah!"
For the rest of the time, they giggled and joked around until the bell rang.
"See you after school!" Vicky waved, going off the opposite direction. Sam walked off to Study skills.
What everyone could see was that Sam was physically disabled, her left side being in braces, a lazy eye made up onto her left eye.
But that day, Sam was hardly into it, after getting picked on by her friend's 'best friend' the day before, anything seemed to be bad.
She stepped into History and sat in her desk, Logan strode in after her, the jerk that picked on her. But, she wasn't going to let him get her down.
"Idiot" He scoffed, walking by her desk.
"Stupid jerk" Sam whispered.
"Don't let him get to you" A girl came in after him.
"Thanks" Sam smiled.
"No problem" She smiled and walked away, her black hair waving behind her.
After school, Sam was walking home with Vicky.
"Seriously, I don't know what that guy's problem is!" Vicky said, refering to Logan.
"It's because he's a BIG basketball star and an airhead, I'm surprised his big balloon of a head didn't make him fly off the earth!" They started laughing.
"Who has a big balloon for a head?" Vicky and Sam stood dead in their tracks.
"Did you hear something?" Sam asked.
"Nope!" They started to kick up speed, but of course, the boy ran ahead of them.
"Hey Matt" Sam said.
"Were you following us again? You perv!" Vicky shouted.
Sailllllooooorrrr, Sailor Venus! Sailor Mercury! Sailor Mars! Sailor Jupiter! Sam took out her phone and looked at it.
"What the-?" The strange number blinked on her screen. "Hello?" She picked it up. But there was nobody there. "Weird..."
"Who was it?" Vicky asked.
"There was nobody there" She shrugged and put the phone back in her pocket.
Kiana looked down at the trio as they walked away.
"The one with the red hair seems nice" She smirked, thinking of the girl who was on the right of the dirty blonde, braced girl. "It's sad to pick on the disabled" She shook her head. "Well" She held out her manicured hands and shot a dark ball right for the red-head. As she watched the girl fall to her knees, she smiled.
"This is going to be easy" She cackled and vanished from sight.
Sam looked at her friend in concern.
"Are you alright?" She asked her. Vicky nodded.
"Yes, I just tripped" She got up and they started to walk again.
"You haven't walked with us for awhile" Sam said turning to Matt, "What made you change your mind?" Matt looked at her.
"I don't have chores to get to today" He smiled. "I'm all yours" He hugged both of the girls.
After hanging out with her friends that day, Sam took a really long shower, she didn't have any homework to do.
"What do you think?" She asked the cat on the bed, she was making a card for Vicky's birthday since she didn't have money to get her anything. The cat meowed and she smiled.
Her cat was pure red, even though it wasn't the normal cat color, she liked her anyway. She even had a pink mark on her forehead that looked like like a heart in between two squiggly lines.
"Thanks" Sam pet the cat, who purred, she stood from her desk and looked at her room. "I need to paint my room" She sighed. "But no use complaining about it now" She got into bed.
"Goodnight Ai" (By the way, it's pronounced I) And Sam fell asleep.
The next morning, Sam went to school, still pretty depressed, her dirty blonde hair swept across her left shoulder and her buttonless jeans kept falling. But Sam knew trying to get pants that buttoned was impossible, she couldn't manuveur them if she tried. Instead she sulked into the gates and went to her locker, which was all the way to the back.
"That's weird, Vicky is usually here by now" Sam looked around, trying to find her red-headed friend.
"Hey Sam!" Sam spun on her heel to face Matt, he was coming over to her with a performing rifle in his hand.
"Oh, hey Matt, have you seen Vicky?" Sam saw the smile fade from his face.
"I thought she was with you" He said.
"I just got here" They shrugged and walked off, Sam holding onto his hand in a sisterly way.
"What, you two are going out now?" Sam rolled her eyes and faced Logan, his blonde hair more pure then Sam's.
"No, we are brother and sister" Sam said, putting her hands on her hips. "Why can't you get that through your brain?" Sam looked at Matt, who shrugged.
Sam had enough of that guy, but she wasn't going to show him weakness. She walked away madly, Matt closely behind.
"Sam, are you okay?" Matt stopped in front of her, she was crying. "Why are you letting him in?" Matt wrapped her in a hug and she cried into his shoulder.
During P.E. that day, Sam was shunned from the activities, the whole time, she actually hid in the corner and watched everyone else play. She dilebratley didn't watch Logan's game.
But during lunch, Sam came to realize that Vicky was not at school that day. Matt walked over and sat with her though.
"You look down, what's wrong?" He asked her, she sighed.
"Vicky's not here" She indicated the table they were sitting at.
"Okay, maybe she got sick or something..." Matt shrugged it off without any further explanations.
"I just have a very bad feeling about it Matt"
"Why are you two always hanging out together when you're not going out?" Logan sneered.
"Why are you dumb?" Matt asked.
For awhile it kept going on, until an explosion erupted through the school yard.
"What was that?" Everyone ducked and covered, but as Sam looked around, it seemed like time had stopped.
"Time... stopped?" She didn't realize that there was a mark on her forehead that glowed.
"Sam..." She looked around trying to find the voice, but she didn't look down.
"Down here" Sam looked down and her eyes widened, it was her cat Ai.
"Ai?" She bent down and reached out with her right hand. The cat rubbed against it and purred.
"Sam, you must listen to me, thanks to the princess's powers time was stopped" Sam blinked confusingly.
"Princess? Ai, you can talk!" But the cat bit her hand. "Ouch! what was that for?"
"Sam, I'll answer your questions later, right now you must take this!" The mark on the cat's forehead glew and a heart shapred brooch appeared in Sam's right hand.
"How is this possible? I mean, my physical-" Sam started to go on about her weakness, but the cat stopped her.
"Sam, you don't have to worry about that when you transform, now, hear the words in your heart!" Sam blinked in confusion, but didn't argue she stood up and closed her eyes. The words flowed naturally.
"Love Heart...KNIGHT!" Sam was surrounded by pink light, her street clothes turning into a pink, knee lemngth kimono, split at the skirt so she can move. Her braces dissolved and on her arms, sleeves, unattatched to the kimono, appeared the started at her elbow. Red gloves with holes at the fingers were now visible on her hands. Red knee-length boots that tie complimented her kimono. And then, the hair, Sam brushed a her right hand through her mid-back length hair, after she did that, it turned into the color red and grew, it was now knee length and kept into two heart shaped buns on the top (Think of Sailor moon's hairstyle). And instead of a tiara like Sailor moon, a marking creased on her forehead.
"Woah!" Sam looked at herself, she was overwhelmed at the moment.
But then time started again. An explosion hit right in front of her, making her lose her balance.
"Get a grip Hreart!"
"Heart?" She looked at Ai.
Then everyone started chanting her name as "Heart"
Heart stood up, and another explosion hit by her left. She fell again.
"What can I do?" Sam asked. "I can't see it!"
"Light Vibrations!"
A blast of light swept through the schoolyard, and the invisble thing became visible.
"Vicky?" Heart stood once more as a boy in a white prince uniform (Think of endymion) stood before her.
"It's time to die!" He yelled, pointing a staff at Vicky. But the staff turned into a sword, he started to charge.
"WAIT!" Heart tackled him before he could attack.
"What?" He tried to push her off his legs.
"You can't! She's a human!" But the boy finally pushed her off.
"You don't understand, she'll never be brought back" He grabbed his sword. "You are a pathetic knight"
"Why you!" Heart felt the power surge through her, she put a hand on her brooch, just as a wand came out.
"What?" He looked at her.
"Watch the power of Love!" Heart held the wand high into the air.
"Love... Melody!" A melody started to play from the wand, and hit Vicky but it didn't destroy her, instead, a monster popped out.
"No way, you were able to get the monster out..." The boy looked at her in surprise.
"Be careful who you mess with" Heart told him. "Now you can fight that thing!" The boy nodded and summoned his powers.
"Light decleration!" He slashed the monster in half.
"Wow" Heart stood there in awe.
"Those two saved us!" Everyone started to cheer.
Heart ran away, being chased by grateful new fans. But she finally got away from them and detransformed.
"Okay, now to go to class" And Sam walked away, leaving the fight behind... And her cat.
The next day, Vicky was asking Sam about the fight, and how she only remembered waking up on the cement.
"And then I heard that there was this new hero called Heart..." Vicky said.
"You mean the Heart Knight?" Sam rose an eyebrow. "Oh yeah! She's really cool!" Sam said, pretending to be amazed.
Truth be told I didn't know what I was doing... I could've done a better job... She sighed for a second. But then ran into someone.
"Ouch!" the boy yelled. Sam rolled her eyes.
"Your such a baby!" Sam said getting up.
"At least I don't look like one!" He sneered back.
"Isn't guys supposed to be nice to girls?" Sam asked.
"Whatever!" He rolled his eyes.
"Well, you better start being nice with a new herione roaming around, you don't her to get you confused with a monster do you?" Vicky was now sounding satisfied over her remark.
"Heart can't take me down if she tried!"
"We'll see about that!" Sam growled to herself, grabbing her brooch. But then, she decided against it and put it away. "As if Heart would waste time on YOU" She said before walking off.
That night Sam was sitting on her bed and looked at Ai.
"Are you going to explain things now?" She asked.
"Yes..." Ai the cat cleared her throat.
TBC...
