The snowy landscape passed by slowly as the black mercedes drove down the long winding road. Many trees were covered with snow, the cold wind blowing against the stiff leaves, the snow plopping to the ground below. The driver of the mercedes turned on the heater and looked into the rear view mirror at the teenager sitting in the back seat. He smiled gently and brought his gaze back to the road ahead. "I have a feeling that you will like this new school." He told the teenager. The man had grey hair with a wrinkled face and fading brown eyes. He seemed to be a chauffuer of some sorts, his hands at the ten and two o'clock positions on the steering wheel.
The car drove by smoothly towards a school that was situated on top of a hill. Seemingly a private school, but we would soon find out. The mercedes drove up the hill steadily and pulled up out the front of the school gates, the man getting out and walking to the rear door, opening it and allowing the teenager to step out. He then moved around to the boot of the car and opened it, taking out a suitcase and a carry bag, watching the teenager get out.
She stretched out and yawned. The plane ride was bad enough, but then a damned three hour car ride to this school. She hoped it was a good one to be in a car for that long. And boy was it cold! The girl opened her eyes, revealing emerald green gems against a slightly tanned complexion. Magenta roots stemmed out of her scalp, stopping and then growing into silver hair. She had her hair placed in a loose poytail, stray strands bobbing over the sides of her face and down the sides of her neck. On her face, she had slight freckles from her sun adorned skin, which gave it that extra tan.
She wore a dark green blazer with a red neck tie against a plain white button up shirt. A grey skirt with long, knee high white socks and black leather shoes. Oh how dorkish she felt. Her emerald green eyes scanned the front of the school as the elderly man, who had driven her here, guided her to the front office. People watched as she walked by, mostly boys gawking at her. She shrugged them off and followed her chauffuer to the front office, keeping a fair distance behind him.
She entered the school building and followed, just followed. She knew that this was a dormitory school where some students stayed, and that is exactly what she came here to do. No where else to stay, so why not stay at your school, right? She stopped abruptly when she bumped into the back of her chauffuer. She mumbled an appology and followed him into the front office, a secretary looking up from behind her semi-oval glasses. "May I help you?" She asked in a snoody voice.
The girl stepped forward and sat down, looking around as her chauffuer explained to the secretary that the girl was an exchange student. "I see." Said the secretary. "Well, let me just fish out your timetable and we'll get a student in here to show you around." He nodded and stood, looking down at the girl and then bowing, walking out of the office, leaving the girl's bags next to her chair.
A burly man then stepped through the door, looking at his secretary and then at the new arrival. "Ah, you must be the exchange student, correct?" The girl nodded. "No need to be nervous around me." He then chuckled. "I am Mr. Strovlaski, but please, just call me Mr. S." She nodded again. "And what be your name?"
The girl stood up and shook Mr. S's out-streteched hand. "My name is Sabrina Wilson, sir." Her hand was roughly shaken, causing her brain to rattle in her skull. He released her hand and chuckled.
"Nice to meet you, Sabrina. I'll get a student to show you around. You'll be sharing a dormitory with her. So please, pick up your luggage and I shall take you to your new dormitory." Sabrina nodded, taking her timetable from the secretary and following Mr. S, after picking up her bags, and following him up a flight of stairs and down a hallway. "Ah, here we go. Room number twenty-five on the left." He knocked on the door and entered. "Miss. Valkov, you have a new room-mate."
The girl in the room turned, Sabrina seeing her face. Snow white skin with ice blue eyes, which made them stand out a great deal. She had deep brown hair that was tied up into a tight ponytail and two, long brown bangs coming over her face. She wore the same uniform, except without the green blazer. She smiled and turned fully, bowing to Sabrina. "Hi there, nice to meet you," she said. Sabrina could tell she was Russian, due to the slight accent. "My name is Tara." She stood up straight and out-streteched her hand. "What's your name?"
Sabrina smiled also, holding out her hand and took Tara's. "Sabrina is my name." The two girls then looked back as Mr. S smiled and hummed to himself.
He then realised what he was doing and chuckled. "Well, now that you two are aquainted, I'll leave you, Miss. Valkov, to show Sabrina around." He inclined his head in a bow. "Good day, ladies." He then turned and left the room.
Once he was gone, the two girls looked to each other and giggled. Tara then scratched her arm. "So, what do you have today?" Sabrina shrugged and handed her timetable to Tara; who studied it and nodded. "You're in class with me. We have Art. Can't wait to get there. I'm pretty good with the pencil to paper. How about you?"
Sabrina blushed a little and nodded. "Yeah, I like to draw as well. It passes the time and I usually just let my imagination run wild." Tara chuckled and nodded. "But uhmm, should I get unpacked first?"
Tara shook her head. "Nahh, don't worry about it. I'll help you unpack when our classes are finished." She then led Sabrina out of the dorm and shut the door, locking it. "I like your hair, by the way." Sabrina ran her hand on the surface of her hair. "Has it got a background to it, or did you dye it?"
Sabrina giggled a little. "Well, it was originally silver, 'cos of the clan I come from. But I got touched by my bit beast, Dramon, and it then turned magenta, but staying silver."
Tara smiled. "That is totally awesome!" She then fingered her long bangs at the front of her hair. "I've got my brother's hair." Tara giggled and guided Sabrina to the art wing. "My brother is one year my senior, so is his best friend, Kai Hiwatari." Tara blushed slightly as she said his name.
Sabrina noticed this and tilted her head to the side. "Who is Kai Hiwatari?" Tara stopped when Sabrina bumped into the back of someone, falling on her backside with an "Oompf." Tara knelt down next to Sabrina. "Ow, hey sorry about that, mate." Sabrina stood up and was confronted with a young man, about a year older than herself. He had two toned hair, slate at the front and silky, deep blue at the back. Four blue triangles were painted on his pale face which made his crimson eyes stand out.
Tara chuckled nervously. "Hey Kai. Uhmm, sorry about her. She's new."
A young man with flaming red hair pushed past Kai and glared down at Tara. "What are you doing bothering us? Go along to class." He had the same ice blue eyes as Tara with the same two long bangs coming out from the front of his hair, except they were red like his hair, with snow white skin. Both he and Kai wore the dark green blazers, a red neck tie and with button up shirts with the grey pants with the black leather shoes. He and Kai walked past Sabrina and Tara, leaving the two girls to glance after them.
Sabrina turned to Tara. "Who were they? Do you know those guys?" Tara stared for a couple of minutes more before she snapped out of her daze and stood up, looking at Sabrina and nodding.
"Yeah, the guy you bumped into, that was Kai. And the red head was my annoying older brother, Tala." Tara then pouted. "He's such a meanie to me." She poked her tongue out at the two, now, distant figures of Kai and Tala. "Well, let's get along to class." Tara beamed and pulled Sabrina along again, the emerald green eyed girl following without complaint.
For now, Kai and Tala were at the back of her mind, the thought of how hard her classes would be were at the forefronts of her mind. She shuddered at the amount of work that would surely pile up, but for now, she kept beside Tara and the two made their way into their art class, sitting at the back and nestling quite comfortably, having their names marked off and the teacher taking nearly twenty minutes to add Sabrina to the roll and into the art system. "Well, Miss. Wilson, what do you like to draw?"
Sabrina blushed and looked down, twiddling her thumbs slightly. "Well, I like to draw dragons and fantasy things." The class stared at Sabrina, which made her feel slightly uneasy.
The art teacher raised her eyebrows and scratched her bagging chin. "Where abouts have you emerged from, Sabrina?" Sabrina seemed taken aback slightly. Tara dropped her jaw at the art teacher's question.
"Well, I'm uhmm Australian, miss." Sabrina gulped again as some wolf whistles were sent her way from the male members of the class.
Tara glared at them. "Shut your traps. She's not your playdoll." She then turned to the art teacher and raised an eyebrow. "You can scoot back to the front of the class now, miss."
Sabrina sighed heavilly and smiled at Tara. "Hey, thanks for that. I don't know what I'd do without you here." She then giggled.
Tara waved her hand and chuckled. "No problem at all, Sabrina. What are friends for?" And at that moment, Sabrina and Tara smiled to each other and turned to the front of the class, preparing for the lesson to come.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Art seemed to fly by for Sabrina and Tara, the two friends exiting the class and walking down the hall. Sabrina was eyeing Tara the whole time. "So, Tara..." Tara looked to Sabrina. "Do you like this Kai guy?"
Tara blushed madly and shook her head. "What?! Me?! No way!" She squeeled. Sabrina raised her eyebrows in surprise. Tara sighed. "Okay, maybe I like him a little. But I can't get anywhere near him with my annoying brother getting in the way!" She clamped her eyes shut and flailed her arms. "Gosh I hate him when he gets in my way."
Sabrina giggled and continued her pace with Tara. "I don't know, your brother seems kind of cute."
Tara blew a raspberry. "Yeah right! I don't know what anyone could possibly see in him."
Sabrina shurgged. "Maybe. But then again, you have to ask what you see in this Kai. He could be a total jerk for all you know." Sabrina shrugged again. "We have lot's of good looking jerks back home in Australia. And I mean lot's. They straighten their hair and put too much aftershave on so that the girls will be attratced to their scent."
Tara nodded. "Gosh, that sounds different than what we do here in Russia. Guys aren't too hung up over their looks or anything. Probably because it's too cold for any of that stuff."
Sabrina chuckled and looked around the hall they walked down. Light green walls with polished wooden floorboards to walk on, doors at the sides of the halls that led into classrooms, different wings or to the outside areas. Banners hung from the ceiling against the walls that had a blue and gold logo with a gold 'W' in the design. Sabrina turned to Tara. "What does the 'W' stand for?"
Tara chuckled. "It stands for wanker." Sabrina stared at her new Russian friend, taking her seriously for a minute. "No, no I'm joking. It stands for 'Witney Prep School'."
"Oooooh." Sabrina then giggled and they continued on. "So where are we going, Tara?" Sabrina asked as Tara pulled her along.
Tara sighed in agrivatin, but not towards Sabrina. "Have to go and see my annoying brother. He wants me to sit with him every Wednesday at recess and lunch. Don't know why though." Tara led Sabrina into the cafeteria and took her over to a table. "Just stay here and wait for me. I'll go and get us some food." Sabrina nodded and watched as Tara took off to the line.
Sabrina twiddled her thumbs and waited for Tara to come back. She felt completely open at this new and strange place. So many new faces she had never encountered before. "Hey." She heard a voice from behind. She jumped and looked back to see Kai standing behind her and walk around to the other side of the table and set his food tray down, sitting in the plastic chair and staring at her. "You're the new kid, correct?" Sabrina could only nod. So this was Kai? He seemed pretty handsome and all, and this was the guy Tara was admiring? "I'm Kai. Kai Hiwatari." Kai held out his hand.
Sabrina took it and shook his hand. "Hi there, Kai. My name is Sabrina Wilson."
"Wilson, ey? Where abouts do you come from?" Kai asked, carving into his salad.
"Oh, I uhmm, come from Australia." Sabrina watched as Kai seemed to almost choke on his lettuce leaf. "Oh, I'm sorry... Are you okay?"
Kai nodded and took a swing from his bottle of water, the bottle becoming half empty. That seemed so amazing! "That's a fair distance, other side of the world."
"Don't scare the poor girl away, Kai." Came another voice. Sabrina looked up and saw Tala, Tara's older brother. He sat down next to Kai and set his tray down, munching on his breadroll and smiling at Sabrina. "Hey, I'm Tala Valkov." He told Sabrina, holding out his hand.
Sabrina giggled and took his hand and shook it. "Hello Tala. My name is Sabrina Wilson." Tala nodded and opened his milk, drinking it swiftly and looked up as his sister came back and set a tray down for Sabrina and a tray down for herself. "Thanks Tara."
Tara smiled and sat down next to Sabrina and looked up at her brother and Kai, blushing a little. "H-hey Kai." She stammered.
Kai looked up and acknowledged Tara. He nodded at her. "Hey Tara. So are you and Sabrina sharing a dorm together?" Tara nodded and smiled. "That's good. At least you can show her around without all the boring lectures."
Tala then chuckled. "Yeah, and then have a big as conversation about how much you love boys." Tala then began to make kissey noises.
Tara growled at her brother and turned her head away. "What would you know?! Everytime I go near a boy, you tell them to stay away from me or else you'll kill them." Tara rolled her eyes and turned to Sabrina, moving in close to her and whispering, "and I can't even ask Kai on a date because Tala get's in my way everytime."
Sabrina nodded. "I see your problem." The two girls then watched as Kai and Tala sat there, talking away as best friends would. The rest their school work and keeping their necks on their shoulders.
