Chapter 1: A sweet scent in the air, while stuck in a dark car.
I am tired of everyone looking at me like I was crazy. Don't they feel guilty or something? None of this was my fault in the first place. That's why I can't trust anyone any longer! They just stab me in the back and try to hurt me. To think that it all started out with an insult…
I was in the locker room after gym class and I was very irritated, because what happened was my friends weren't helping at all. I was getting very annoyed since they were just standing in the corner doing nothing. When I confronted both of them, Yuffie was starting to hiss at me saying that she didn't want to be hit by the ball. That made me angrier and it really surprised to me that she was acting this way to me. She was always a loud mouth but she never dared to talk to me like that!
"If you don't work then you won't get a good grade! It's your loss!" I snapped back at her.
"Shut up, you idiot!" Yuffie replied rudely.
Selphie just stood there staring. That was it. This was going on for too long. Yuffie has been insulting me more and more lately since she transferred schools. She's been hogging Selphie, and now Selphie, my best friend, doesn't even defend me! I've been her friend for 2 years, and she doesn't even bother to defend me when Yuffie gives me looks and calls me names.
It's not that I was spazing about the fact that Yuffie called me an idiot. I would've just laughed in her face. But Selphie wasn't doing anything about it, and that made me realize that she may have not ever been my friend. So I said the words that became fateful to me.
"I HATE YOU, SELPHIE MARONE!" I yelled at her and ran away. Not bothering to look back I could almost feel tears in my violet eyes.
Since then, Yuffie has been telling everyone that I was the bad guy, making everyone turn against me. Which just resulted me in doing something that I should've done much sooner. I called Yuffie out. She was drinking some soda out of a can as she glanced at me and smiled evilly.
"You should just shut it, and mind your own business, because in the end…no matter how many people you turn against me, you'll end up looking like a fool when someone will finally slap you across the face. And that someone would be me." I glared her up and down and slapped her with all my might.
She stumbled and almost let her soda fall to the ground when she called me the B, and splashed her soda over my head. I was drenched in this sticky substance! "You have no family, you're basically a foster, everyone knows that you're crazy and it wouldn't shock anyone if you ended up as some junkie. Your parents left you for a great reason."Yuffie laughed. She would regret ever meeting me.
I ran towards her and tackled her to the ground while my hair flew crazily over my face and she just looked me in the eyes in horror, she was wishing she'd never known my name. I started beating her with my fists and kicking her while she screamed 'HELP' and 'LET ME GO'! I was really going to hit her until she said she was sorry. That would make my day. That is, until someone popped my bubble.
"Hey! Get off of her!" A boy grabbed my arms and tried to yank me off of Yuffie.
"You're such a weak PUNK!" I yelled at her while she was starting to cry. I managed to kick her once more and, oh the joy, I spit in her face! Then, my job was done.
Now that you've learned all about that, it would explain why I was in the principal's office. I should've thought about this one little detail. Yuffie's mother was the principal. And her dad was a judge. This mistake would bring me to court, and send me to juvi!
"So you understand that what you've done…" The judge struggled, "… to my sweet little daughter…is un-acceptable?!" He started to shout. He calmed down and stared down at me. "You're known to get into fights. You've jumped a teacher 3 times in an hour. You set the school's mascot on fire! Kairi Dawntor, I will not send you to juvenile hall." He sighed.
I had a confused look on my face, what?! Did he take his meds? Even I know that I should go there! "Huh?!" I look up at him from the ground.
He smiled down at me, the same smile that Yuffie held when I turned around to stare at her.
"You, Kairi Dawntor, are being sent to a mansion where you will be living with 5 more children that are going to learn what you can and cannot do on earth."
"WHAT?! Can't you just send me to an orphanage, or juvi? I'd much rather go there than…wait, Is there food?" I tilt my head.
"You will have to fend for yourselves." He retorted.
"NO! I can't live without food! Do you want me to starve? I already way 102 pounds and I'm 5'3, I'm underweight! I'm a skeleton!" I yell as 2 police officers pull me back and toss me into a car.
It was pitch black in there and I couldn't tell how small or large it was, where ever I was.
"Hello?" I call out into the darkness.
"Someone's here! Hello! My name is Sora, , I've been so alone in here! I've been waiting for someone to come here forever!"
"How long have you been in here?" I asked shocked.
"12 minutes that seemed like days!" He said back to me over dramatic. How great. I'm stuck in here for god knows how long and I'm stuck here with HIM!
"Can a normal person sleep in here?" A boy's voice yawned. Light flashed in the car and I saw that the yawning boy held up a flashlight. He flashed me in the eyes with it. He had spiky blond hair and he looked very tired.
He flashed it around until the light hit what I believe was Sora; he had chocolaty brown spiky hair. They looked rather similar!
Then the car started with a rocky start and the flashlight fell over and stopped at a blond girls face. He eyes fluttered open and she looked frightened. Her eyes searched the blond boys and he slid over to her and took her in his arms. He rocked her back and forth. She was mumbling and she held on to him tightly.
The spiky blond looked at Sora and I who were staring, trying to comprehend what was going on. The boy glared at us and hissed, "You got a problem with us?! Mind your own business!" He turned around with the girl and continued to cradle her.
Sora and I couldn't see anything anymore because the flashlight was quickly turned off. I sighed and lay down on my back. Maybe, I can sleep through the whole entire road to this mansion.
It was much harder to do this though. The car kept rumbling and driving on rocky roads. What in the world was happening out there? Would mom and dad be proud of me? I laugh at my own sick joke. Of course they wouldn't, they didn't care about me, and they just left me outside to die. They probably have a new child and aren't even thinking about me. I hope they feel bad about themselves.
The car stopped and everyone else in the car froze as the trunk was opened and we were tossed out, abruptly after that, the car left us and almost ran over us. "Lovely, they abandoned us?" I say to myself. The light was burning my eyes, why the hell was the car so dark? Did they think we'd remember the way back? That drive was about 3 hours long anyways!
I look at everyone there; didn't the judge say that there would be 5 more? With me, 6? Where are the other 2 kids? Not that I cared because that would mean more room for me.
I look towards the mansion. It looked dusty and un-used. It was rather creepy looking, and it seemed kind of weird. Something was wrong with it. There was a presence in the place already. Probably the other 2 kids waiting for us. As long no one messed with me, I was fine.
"What're you doing? Staring at it won't get you in it! Let's move it!" Sora said confidently as id nothing was wrong with the place. He stomped inside of it and disappeared up the stairs, we followed him at a much slower pace. He popped up again and called out to us, "Hey, I found 2 more people!"
The rest of us 3 traced him up the stairs and found 2 more kids. One girl with short black hair, and a boy with long silver hair.
I looked at everyone around me. A smiling boy with brown hair, a blond boy hugging a blond terrified girl, a silver haired boy leaning against the window looking like he wanted to kill us all, a girl with black hair who sat in a chair and kept to herself. And of course, me, looking at everyone wondering…how will all of this ever work?
