~First Attempt at writing a story, cut me slack as a Improve it, real chapter probably going to be posted somewhere in a few days if I get to it, during my writing I will try and hopefully make it funny for the reader or at least put in random info, with *, so in the review it be nice if you told me if you liked them or not, seeing I rather not do something people don't care about or dislike.~

"Destiny: the set-in-stone story of human life from birth to death. People have many theories about Destiny, which vary deeply. In the common theories, it is always the same and unavoidable like the sun engulfing the landscape as dawn breaks the darkness of the common example of a theory about Destiny is that it is changing from every action done by its owner and then adjusts to be correct in the end. Though there are of course also the odd-ball theories of Destiny as one certain being, and that Destiny is in fact alive. . . "

A loud ring resounded through the building of the school: the bell, which ended the session of class. The teacher of the class underlined their homework as she said in an old voice that sounded like nails being scratched on a chalkboard until your ears bleed*, "Don't forget, class, read the rest about chapter fourteen, section three. Your report on one of the three topics in the chapter is also due tomorrow ." This was Miss Lopa, the literature teacher of Falcon High School. The Juniors of the class began to shuffle out slowly to their lockers and, surely, their next class. The last Junior left in the room began to walk out ,taking a while to make sure his books were all stacked onto each other carefully, so that they didn't feel weird when he would start carrying them with his right hand leaning and them on his side as he walked, as he usually liked to do. He was still thinking about the few lines he had just read in the assigned section because he planned on Destiny being his one page report for tomorrow. Though, the last few words were absurd: that a thing like 'Destiny' could possibly be alive. His feet began to carry him to his locker and he slowly swirled the little lock to the appropriate numbers as he daydreamed, hardly realizing what he was doing.

Math class had started now, where people either fell asleep or in love with the subject as they were taught by their fifty-seven year old teacher, Mr. Wilson. A Junior was sitting in the back row to the right corner staring out the window. The teacher had begun explaining the math problem on the board to the : a problem that the daydreamer already knew, as usual. He yawned quietly to himself as his eyes squinted shut because his mouth was so far open. Then it happened, the Junior saw something that shouldn't have been seen. A girl with white flowing hair to her knees, that was wearing summer clothing, which were tan shorts and a short sleeved shirt with messy patterns drawn on it, she looked around seven years old, at most, and her pupils were centered directly at weirdest thing was that the wind was strong outside today and it didn't even seem to touch her perfectly made, flawless body. This was Destiny...? Then the trance ended as words that came from a soft sweet voice next to him interrupted his train of thought, "Kane! Come on, snap out of it! The bell rang already and you promised you would give me the small cake you made for me." The Junior, Kane Kuroda completely stunned from something as simple as a girl that he had only just noticed, could only nod and answer back in a slightly zoned out voice, "Oh... uh... Yah, sure Alice, you go to our normal spot with everyone and I'll be right there." The girl, Alice, began to head off with a nod. Her dark brownish hair fell down to her shoulders and seemed as if it were barely taken care of, but also looked as if it were naturally that way. Her hazel eyes made people naturally want to agree with her. Kane looked back quickly as soon as she left, but saw no traces of the girl, not even a dent in the grass where she had stood in it.

The sound of the bell rang throughout the building as the lunch room was filled with countless people sitting, eating, and conversing. Everyone was situated at their normal spots other than a group of five people who sat at the third table on the left as soon as you walk ed into the room. The five were at a private place to celebrate for a seemingly special person. The flat tiled roof, where they were all sitting, had a small cement railing of a wall around the sides to help assure no one fell off, hopefully. Access was easy, but eating on the roof became difficult for the select few who needed tables for the eating of their people sat in an odd shape that somewhat resembled a circle Each one had a lunch in front of them, but Alice**, who was also part of the group. Kane sighed lightly as he opened his dark green boxed lunch slowly, putting the top under the base of the box, and took out a cake. It was the one Alice must have been talking about. He set it down in front of everyone with the white lettering over the chocolate frostingspelling, "Happy Birthday Alice". Kane picked up a serving knife that lay close to the delicious, moist-looking cake as Kane's best friend, Yaiba, spoke in a joking way, "Now see, Kari, Alex should be doing things like this for you, seeing as you two are going out and you and Kane supposedly aren't-..." He began to shut up quickly as two pairs of eyes looked at him with fierce stares that seemed to be burning into his face, obviously coming from Alice and Kane. They both acted like a couple, but were not in fact one as Yaiba jokingly had had made the mistake of mentioning. The tension was broken easily and the conversing of the close friends began again as they ate the cake prepared by Kane. Silence soon dominated the roof-top as the sharp ringing of the bell began to call back its little learners back into the hive as if they were bees.

Bump, bump, bump was all that was basically heard other than some heavy breathing from the half of class that was playing volley ball on the dirt court set out for them. Alice was off in her own little world dreaming of fantasies with Destiny having determined that Kane and her belong together because of what Yaiba said to her earlier, but it was only a fantasy. Alice's trance of such a dream was broken for the short moment as the ball came at her and her body reacted in a quick "bump", making the ball fly back into the air and keeping it going easily. To the practiced players, it seemed as if the ball floated in the air like a cloud. The other half of the class only heard the loud pitter patter of shoes hitting the ground as they ran around an oval track to appease their thirty-seven year old Gym Teacher, Miss Quinn, or they would be punished no doubt. The track runners were split into three packs:the Slackers, who were the ones being lapped easily by the top pack and some of the middle pack, the Averagers, who ran at a mediocre pace,, and, finally, the Athletic people, who ran swiftly across the track to finish the ten laps with amazing speed, passing many in their wake. Kane was part of the runners today and, like his normal self, was in the average group where he could slack and day dream lightly as he ran his ten laps. He was thinking about the strange Math Class scenario with a reasonable explanation of who the girl was and where she went. He was having problems with it, of course, but all of these thought processes stopped as he saw, on his sixth lap, a girl with white flowing hair in the middle of the road.

Two feet pounded against the ground with all their might, trying to force the body to move faster in its stride as the body pushed towards the road to this strange girl. This body belonged to no other than Kane as his slacking barrier disappeared and confusion blinded his thoughts, as he made his decision to run after her. Eyes drew towards what was happening as people became utterly confused from seeing the runner reach the road. A girl, the one who had Kane had seen, was gently smiling as a dark blue truck sped down the road as if it couldn't see her. Kane could though and so could the rest of the class. Her body turned to nothingness; a white and tan smoke that swirled around Kane from him trying to push her out of the way of the truck. Then,everything slowed down as Kane felt his body slow and the world around him turned silent. The truck was gone and his body was falling towards the ground as he now saw a new threat. A horse had replaced the truck; its white , glistening bodyrushing towards him, leaving hoofed scorch-marks burning in the ground. Also, the fat, old European looking man had disappeared and a rider had taken his place. He was holding the reins of the horse and had a flowing black cloak around his whole body, covering the rider with its color like an abyss. In his right hand, he held a long high in the air in what seemed to be more and more like a bony, skeletal hand as the rider became closer. Then, Kane and the mysterious figure met as he was mid-way through his fall to the ground and the world turned to nothingness.... nothing, but Death.

The rush of the real world was much less fantastical. The possibility of him surviving was hardly plausible as people stared in a confused state. Then, the volley ball hit the ground with a light and chaosbroke out. People began to move all about, not sure of what they should do. Yet they wanted to see it, even if it was disgusting, just to be able to say that they had been there and seen the death of an A-student of the school. The truck driver was completely confused, saying he had seen no girl there, but the Teacher's Assistant was still arguing with the man as Alice stood there, finally feeling warm, overflowing tears pour from her eyes. She covered her face as she cried. Her nose turned red and the tears wouldn't stop as Miss Quinn came over to Alice to say in a voice filled with sorrow for her that held only a somber tone , "Alice, I think you… should head home now, I'll go to the office and explain everything, so don't worry." Alice was running before her teacher had even finished, towards her locker inside the school. She hurried before students' bodies filled the halls by the command of the bell to be sent into the endless traffic of everyday school.

The bell rang lightly throughout the school halls and classrooms as people shuffled into the hallways, mostly unaware of the death that had occurred a moment ago. Alice was running back to her home with her bag over her shoulder, containing no materials other than a half-eaten cake in the box made by Kane. Her eyes still brought forth tears which ran down her beautiful face that had now turned red with all of the sadness inside her. The legs carrying her became jelly as she saw her home in sight, right next to Kane's small home, which sat there vacantly. The door of her house flung open as she rushed in, making the door hit the wall and close. Her parents were out tonight and she had plans to watch movies with Kane for her birthday, but... he was no more. She was running out of tears, as the tear ducts began to finally dry out . Her bedroom door was opened towards her and swiftly darkness of her room engulfed her and she was on her soft bed crying to herself in the darkness as she stared at where a black bear sat on her wardrobe. She had gotten it from Kane. It sat facing her and she smiled lightly thinking of how she had gotten it in from him last year for her birthday. The card still sat by her alarm clock and the words stood out to her even in this darkness as she passed out. "Happy Birthday Alice."
