I walked through the halls of True Cross Academy with my fellow co-workers and I was nervous since I had never been to high school before. I looked at my friend Eric and he had his arms crossed with his eyes closed while he walked. I looked at his blonde and brunette hair and I smiled before I looked ahead of me. William walked ahead of us and held the door open for us as we entered the empty office. I looked at the mahogany desk and saw a white dog that kind of looked like a terrier. I looked at William as he entered the room after Grell and all of my friends arched their eyebrows. I looked back at the dog and then it turned into a purple mist before a man appeared.
"Hello," the purple haired man said.
I thought he looked like a clown and I crossed my arms.
"You're the principal," I asked.
"You look like a clown," Eric said emotionlessly.
"Eric," Alan scolded.
I rolled my eyes and I looked at the principal in the eyes with my two toned green eyes.
"You must be the new students from England," the purple haired man said.
William walked up to him and held his hand out to shake the purple haired man's hand.
"My name is William T. Spears," William announced.
I leaned against the door and started to look at my nails.
"I am Mephisto Pheles but you may just call me Mephisto," the purple haired man said while shaking William's hand.
"Mr. Pheles, these are my friends, the one that called you a clown was Eric Slingby," William started.
"What's up," Eric said sounding like the tough kid that he was and it still gave me the creeps.
"The one next to Eric is Alan Humphries," William continued.
"Hello," Alan greeted.
"The red head is Grell Sutcliff," William said emotionlessly.
"Oh Will," Grell flirted.
"Ugh," I muttered.
"The blonde is Ronald Knox," William said.
"Hiya," Ronald smiled.
"Then finally the one that is leaning against the door is Marrissa Scott," William ended.
I looked at the purple haired man before I sighed and crossed my arms.
"Sorry, Marrissa doesn't really want to be here and also she is more of the rebel in the group," William apologized.
"No need to apologize, it is just how she was born," the purple haired man spoke.
"When do classes start and where are our dorms," I asked emotionlessly.
"Here is everything you need so go ahead and use the keys on any door and you'll be in Cram school," the purple haired man explained.
I walked up to the purple haired man first and grabbed the map and the key that he gave me. I walked to the door and put the key in. I unlocked the door and opened the door to find a hall with red and green walls. I closed the door behind me and I started walking towards my first class. I combed my hand through my red hair and looked at a strand of my green highlights. I always wondered why I was born with red and green hair but I didn't really care. I walked into a room and took off my glasses to put my contacts in and I sat down all the way in the back of the room. I waited for everyone and I closed my eyes as I put my head on the desk. I heard the door open but I was too lazy to lift my head up to see who it was. I heard footsteps coming towards me and I kept my eyes closed.
"If you come any closer I'll bite your head off," I growled.
"Really, why would you do that," I heard a deep voice that I knew wasn't one of my friends.
"Because I like personal space and you are currently in it," I groaned.
"How do you know where I am if you won't even look at me," the man said.
I growled and lifted my head up. I glared at him and I barred my teeth.
"Get. Out. Of. My. Space," I hissed.
William came in and he walked over to me.
"Marrissa," he scolded.
I glared at him and stood up.
"Fine, let me give the seat to the oh powerful William," I said sarcastically.
Eric came in and saw that William looked like he was going to explode. He jogged over to us and held my arms so I didn't try to punch him.
"Why did we have to leave," I hissed as I struggled in Eric's arms.
William crossed his arms and sighed before he left the room. Eric let go of me and I clenched my fists.
"You better get used to it here because we're not leaving anytime soon," Eric whispered before he walked away towards Alan, Ronald, and Grell.
I looked at the guy that was talking to me earlier and I saw he had brunette hair with a yellow stripe in the middle. I cocked my hip and glared holes into him.
"Why did you have to disturb me," I asked.
"Because first off you're sitting in my seat," he said.
"Ha! Just because of that," I laughed.
I shook my head and moved out of the way.
"All yours you're royal highness," I said sarcastically before I walked over to the corner of the classroom and sat at the desk with spiders in it. I smirked and held a spider in my hand. I looked at the spider and watched it walk around my hand. I was in a kind of trance as I smiled at it and then Grell came up to me. Grell squealed and I looked at him.
"It's just a spider," I said before I set it back in the cubby hole of my desk.
Grell looked at me and crossed his arms as he huffed.
"You shouldn't scare a lady like that," he huffed.
"What lady are you talking about," I asked.
Grell glared at me before walking away and I saw his long red hair flow behind him. I leaned back in my seat and I sighed.
"Why did I have to have this life," I asked.
I closed my eyes and then I heard the door open again. My eyes flashed open and I sat up straight as I looked at who came in. I could see two boys walk in and I could smell that they were half demon. I saw the navy haired boy's tail and I stared at it before I watched him. The boy sat in the front and Eric looked at me. I looked at him and I nodded.
"A demon," he mouthed out.
I nodded and shrugged.
"I'll talk about it later," I whispered.
Eric nodded and I nodded.
"Would you like to say something," the brunette in the front asked.
"Yeah," I said.
"Would you mind telling us," he asked.
"Why is there a kid teaching a class about Exorcism," I asked.
The brunette sighed and the navy haired boy turned around and stared at me. I put my feet on top of the desk since I was wearing the guy's school uniform and I had my arms crossed.
"Why do you have the guy's school uniform on," the brunette asked.
"Because I hate skirts and I'm not some girl that needs to wear dresses like the gender confused dumbass over there," I sighed.
Grell huffed and crossed his arms.
"Don't say that about a lady," he huffed.
I rolled my eyes and sighed.
"Who are you if I may ask," the brunette said and I knew I was getting on his bad side.
"The name is Marrissa," I said.
"What is your last name," he asked.
"Scott, Marrissa Scott," I said.
The brunette gave a single nod and I glared at him.
"Why is he here," I asked while pointing to the navy haired boy.
"He is here to learn the same thing you are," he said.
"Well that's hypocritical," I sighed.
"Marrissa," William scolded.
I rolled my eyes and I looked at my nails. The brunette began to teach the class and I knew that the nay haired boy was staring at me. When classes ended I was the first one out of the room and I walked towards the cafeteria. I grabbed some sushi and I walked outside. I smiled at the sky and took a deep breath as I sat down next to a fountain. I grabbed the chopsticks and pulled them apart before I began to eat. I got my journal out of my backpack and pulled my hair up into a ponytail after I set it down on the stone fountain side. I laid on my belly and continued to eat while I began writing on the first page.
Dear Journal,
This is probably one of the lamest things I have ever done but Grell said that if everyone did this then we could write down everything that we thought during the day while we were living in Japan. Even though I agreed it was because everyone else had their hand up and I had to do this whether I liked it or not. Well first day of Cram School was pretty surprising, you could say…it was surprising to actually have a demon in the same classroom with me and I honestly thought I was going to die if I didn't get out of the room. The smell was familiar but I couldn't quite put my finger on it so I just called him a demon though I know he is a lot more than that. I also met a guy that looked and kind of reminded me of Eric, he was cute but he probably wasn't my type since I am into tough, smart, and not like Grell kind of guys. I also love the desk I'm sitting at since it has spiders in it and every one of my friends know that I love spiders though Grell thinks that they are monsters. But anyway I think this is going to be an interesting 4 years so let's just hope I can survive it.
