Chapter 1
Only a few more weeks until graduation! Everyone could hardly wait! Cammy and Roy had already graduated of coarse, but they still worked at the school to make up the years they had missed as 'assistant teachers'. Roy helped Barrett with his weapons class, and Cammy helped Aaron and Aria's mother Manna with her cooking class.
Every guy was excited to be old enough to travel the world, not stuck home any longer. And every girl couldn't wait to get married! Almost everyone was paired up. Orland and Aria, Aaron and Leann, Roy and Cammy, and Leonel… well... he didn't have anyone. Sera and Serena had decided to become nuns and never marry once Orland and Aria started going out. Plus, the two girls felt they could never separate.
Our story starts one bright spring day, right after the winter break. It was Spring 2nd, and everyone was talking about the Prom on the 1st of Summer. This was also Cammy and Roy's Prom, since they had to make up their school years. It was 1:00pm, and everyone moved about the room, just back from their lunch break. And Barrett was trying to take control of his class.
"Everyone please!" Barrett yelled. "Take your seats and let class begin!" Everyone continued talking, ignoring their teacher. Well everyone but Leonel and Leann, who were quietly sitting in their seats. Barrett hit his ruler on his desk, everyone jumped and stopped talking. "Thank you. Now please, take your seats." he said calmly. Everyone murmured and sat down in his or her seat. "Now, I have an important announcement to make." the teacher said. "You're finally gonna get rid of your emo haircut?" Sera exclaimed. The class laughed.
Trying to stay calm, Barrett took a deep breath and said, "No. We are getting a new student." Everyone smiled and began to whisper to each other. Serena raised her hand. "Yes?" Barrett asked. "What kind of an idiot would move when school is almost over?" she said. Everyone laughed in agreement and Barrett said, "She lives with her grandmother, and she moves a lot. She has been to every country in the world, actually. She knows many different languages. She just got here today, but she's helping her grandmother unpack, so she won't be here until tomorrow."
"How is she gonna make up her work then?" Leann asked. "She had her old school give her the schoolwork from the days she would miss, up to today. She's already turned it in to Kyle, and he has separated it out for Manna and me to grade." Barrett explained. "She won't be here until tomorrow morning, so until then." He turned to the chalkboard and began to write down the lesson. "Turn to page 355 in your books and let's begin." Everyone groaned, but did what the teacher asked.
"What do you think she'll be like?" Aria said to her brother Aaron as they walked out of the school with Orland and Leann. "I don't know. But I bet she's really smart. So she'll probably be a quiet bookworm. Nails painted, glasses, makeup, a real girly girl." "Hey!" Leann said. "You don't have glasses though." Aaron said, putting his arm over her shoulder. "Plus, she won't be near as pretty as you are." "What do you think Orland?" Aria asked. "What do I care? She'll probably be just another worthless human like Leonel." he scoffed. Aria glared at him and he said, "You, your brother, and Roy are the only human's I like." the elf boy said.
"Well. We'll just have to wait until tomorrow to see." Aria said. "Bye Orland! By Leann!" the twins chimed. "Bye!" Orland and Leann said as they turned the corner. "Hey kids!" Manna said as she came out of the school. "Hey mom." they both groaned. They hated that she still called them 'kids'. She gave them two folded up papers and said, "Get these chores done once you get home. Got it?" "Yes mam." they both said in union. She kissed them both on the head, and went back inside.
"Thank goodness she still has papers to grade." Aaron said to his sister as they walked home. "Yeah. Or else she'd be holding our hands as we walked home." Aria agreed. Aaron smiled and said, "Race ya!" Aria threw her backpack on her back and said, "Last one there has to weed the yard!" "Ready?… Set?…. GO!" Aaron yelled. Both twins took off on their way home. They didn't even notice the young girl standing by their barn. The lonely girl sighed and walked on. "So much for making friends early." she mumbled as she kicked a pebble.
Leonel sat on the steps of the school and waited for his father. He was supposed to help him work on his project today. He had no friends, so he didn't care. Leonel looked up and watched the clouds. "That one looks like a rabbit." a girl said from behind. He tilted his head slightly and said, "Hey your right!" "And the one next to it looks like a fish!" he said, pointing towards the white fluffy cloud fish. They laughed and the girl pointed to one and said, "Look at that weird one!"
Leonel laughed and said, "That looks like Orland!" The girl tilted her head and said, "Who's Orland?" "This jerk elf that used to beat me up when we were kids." he said as he stared at the clouds. "He doesn't now?" she asked as she looked at the cloud elf. Leonel laughed and said, "I didn't say that." They both laughed. Then they heard an old woman yelling something in foreign tongue. Leonel guessed it was German, but the girl seemed to understand it. "I uh…. I have to go…" she said. "It was nice meeting you!"
"Nice meeting you too!" he turned to look at her, but she was gone. "Whoever you are… Hm… I didn't even catch her name…" "Who's name?" someone said from behind. Leonel turned around and saw his father standing in the door. "Uh… Some girl." He answered. Barrett smiled and said, "Well, you'll see her tomorrow. Now let's go home and get some work done before your mother gets home." "Okay!" Leonel said. As they walked to their house, Leonel wondered who that strange girl had been… Was she the 'new girl'? Or… someone else.
Author's Note:
I know everyone hates me… But this story kept me up until 5 in the morning, and some of last night too. I deleted the other story, because it really didn't seem to be going anywhere… So… there. The next chapter may be a little confusing (in one part) so I'm gonna write the seating chart in this chapter, and the next chapter.
Till then!
