They were known as the most prestigious and famed throughout the country; aspiring teenagers with hopes to become something more than what they were now. They each had a purpose and a place, a statement, a reason to be known, a personality, claim-to-fame, a title. There were eleven of them. They had all come from different parts of the country with different reasons, and different dreams. Thrown together, in a whirl of colors and enforcements, they had been forced to be together, to know each other; and ultimately work together...it was destiny.
The place was a large school, located a train ride away from the capital. Outside the large iron gates was a plaque, no doubt with the inscriptions of the school's philosophy engraved upon it. "Mikoto School," it read, "Stick to the rules." Despite the name there were a number of fights and gangs that plagued the school. Most were interlinked with each other though the principle liked to brag that he was in charge of the best establishment in the nation.
The principle's son attended the school and naturally, was treated better than the rest. Hated by most, and feared by even more as the leader of one of the most prominent gangs that ruled the school. There were a few rival gangs and zero ally gangs. Nevertheless, the principle's son held the most esteem in the neighborhood.
However, there were ten, no, eleven students of the school who had formed their own...counter gang if you would call it. Eleven students, who were sick of it, sick of everything they had been put through. These eleven students knew each other, not as best friends, not even as allies, but maybe as people who could coexist together in the same reality and not destroy one another.
People felt bad for you if you attended Mikoto High School, not because it had a bad education system or because it was in a bad area, but simply because of the gang wars within. But no one looked down on the school. To those not directly associated with it they didn't care much, it was just another school in the world. That's why no one thought any different when the boy who lived down the street, the one they didn't know so well, decided to travel almost halfway across the county to attend that school.
When asked why he simply replied, "Because I can." And so they watched him walk away and leave his home. But he was an orphan. His parents had died soon after he was born, leaving him alone. The people of the town had felt bad for him but at the same time burdened with a child they didn't want. He had grown to be a huge trouble, getting into fights with the local boys, smart mouthed and having a bad attitude. That's why no one was sad when they saw him leave; sixteen years of torture could only bring them to feel that way.
But it wasn't the boy's fault. Still he set out on his own to attend Mikoto School, to become something better and to find someone to call a friend. Little did he know the troubles he would encounter, the people he would meet or the experiences he would live through. But then again, this was destiny.
A/N: well, that was the prologue, it'll get more interesting later... please review!
