"Hey freak! Get your fat, ugly self up before I make you bleed" Alex looked up Not again she thought "O-OK" "I am NOT finished with you, you mutie pig!"

Yes, Alexandra was a mutant, and you could see it when you looked at her, too. She was ghostly white with ravens black hair with natural navy blue high lights. Her eyes were navy blue, no whites and no pupils. She was only 5'5 and was slim but she believed everything any one said, about her being fat, ugly, a freak, anything.

"Y'know what I hate about you most?" said the girl to Alex as she walked up to her "That no matter what we say, me, your foster parents, the guys in class, you don't run away crying. Why do you think we say those things? We want to see you suffer, to break, but you don't show any emotion! WHY DON'T YOU? TELL ME!"

Alex looked up at her. " I-I uh I d-don't-"

"Stop. Just stop."

"Wha-"

"Run." Alex gave a confused look "She said run" said one of the girls behind her. "Why? What's going on?" The girl in front of Alex started to giggle and by the time she was laughing the girls behind her started to laugh.

"I'd run fast if I were you because-" she got really close to Alex's ear and whispered "the boys are looking for you, lets just say if you make it home lock your door. And remember they're under my orders." Alex's eyes got wide. Any and all boys would do anything for that girl anything. She remembers how in 9th grade a girl disappeared from school after accidentally running into her at lunch.

After remembering that Alex took off without another word. She could hear all the girls laughing behind her. Her foster parents house was thirty minutes away from the school if she ran, and the thought of that made her want to throw up.

She was only three blocks away when she heard car wheels screech on the pavement a few blocks behind. She started running faster but realized she wouldn't make it home. She stopped and turned around and stood there. She knew there was no hope, no reason to run when she knew they would catch her. They would run her over if they had to and she would not let them have the satisfaction of chasing her down.

The car drove up to her and stopped by her, there were two boys in the front, both jocks. One was Valentine Cope and the other was Ricky Durland. Val was nice to her, never said one mean work and never hurt her, and by the look on his face he was not going to enjoy this.

On the other hand Ricky looked at her and smiled. He was one of the people who tortured her everyday of her life.

"Get in the car sweetheart we're going for a drive."

"Where are we going" Alex says, trying to make it seem she's not scared.

"Somewhere quiet" and after that he chuckles.

After riding in the car, for about five minutes, Ricky falls asleep saying he needs to nap so he can have all the energy he needs. After she's sure Ricky's asleep Alex whispers to Valentine "Please help me. Or at least tell me what's going to happen." She says. Valentine looks up in the mirror and starts to speak.

"I cant help you, Charlise made too many threats, I'm sorry. Her plan was to take you about an hour away from home and just drop you off but she told us to do whatever else we wanted to do. I don't know what Ricky's going to do but I wont do anything, I promise."

Alex started to cry and then started to giggle, all the way to a laugh. The laugh was loud and I woke up Ricky, he turned around and looked at her "What are you laughing, ugly" he said and it made her laugh even harder.

"Don't" breath

"Make me" breath

"Laugh" she laughed but slowed down to a stop.

"Let me ask again, what is so funny to you. We're literally about to leave you stranded and beat the snot out of you, and you laugh?"

"I'm sorry, I was just laughing at what Valentine just said."

"What did he say?"

"He just told me the funniest lie-" she starts to giggle "- that he wont hurt me, isn't that rich? I mean at least you tell the truth about how your going to hurt me. But emotional and mental pain hurts so much worse, wouldn't you think I'm used to the physical abuse already?" She said matter-of-factly " I mean I have my foster parents, you guys, Charlise and her 'followers' and myself. I don't think you're trying enough-" The car suddenly stopped and the fear sank in her.

"Time to get out, freak" said Valentine, Alex guessed she pissed him off. She got out the car and saw they were in an alley, it was dirty and smelled bad but she wouldn't have guessed differently. She brought her book bag and walked straight, going further in the alley. She stopped and turned around. The two boys stood in front of her, only around three feet away, and did nothing.

"Well?" was all Alex could say, a tear dropped down when she said it.

"I don't know what to do." said Ricky.

"I do" said Valentine and with that he threw a punch right to Alex's face. When it made contact she fell and her head hit the ground. However Alex still propped her self on and elbow and laughed "I knew you would brake…" she said. Valentine then started to kick her, Alex didn't really feel the punch or her head against the concrete but she felt this, it hurt way more then she was used to and she cried out in pain.

"Val, what are you doing, Stop! You're going to kill her!" the kicking ceased for a moment.

"No I wont, she's a mutant, they don't die that easy, NOW HELP!" and with that the kicking started again. She heard Ricky walk away but that didn't help at the moment. He kicked her ribs and legs and now her head.

Before she blacked out she heard some shouting and the kicking stopped. She heard a motorcycle rev, tires screeching, yelling, and then she was being lifted up and heard someone say "Hold on, kid, we'll get you help soon."
