Ayame Tifaben has been taunted all her school life. In elementary, they continuously called her ugly. She then always played with her grandpa's dogs, and picked up a few things of them. Then they made fun of the way she sometimes growled and how, when she was angry, showed her canines. In middle school,some kids from her elementary school went there and still called her ugly. Some other kids grew to call her ugly and taunted her for falling in love with an obese kid. She felt discouraged about doing school work, so she failed 6th grade. All summer her family yelled at her and made her do work they made up so she couldn't enjoy her summer. The next year, nothing was better, but she passed. In high school, some kids found out her last name and used 'Fartbean' as an greeting. She tried not to talk to anyone and passed. The only friend she had in high school was Kalen Ivanov and her friends. When they graduated,they became roommates. Now,at age 21 she has to flee from a dying planet and reopen old wounds.

"Kalen." I whisper to my slumbering friend. She rolled over with her pillow that was shaped like the Firefox logo,held tight to her chest.

I shook her lightly,"Time to eat,or else you'd rather cook yourself?" at this, she jumped up and dressed. "Don't scare me like that!" said Kalen as she hurriedly dressed. "It was the only way I could wake you up so fast."

I laugh as she hurries to the cafeteria. I love to cook,Kalen on the other hand,can't.

As I walk to the kitchen which is right beside the cafeteria,I hear many familiar vocies. I ignore them until one certain Kazuharu,the one who stated the whole 'Fartbean' naming jumps infront of me."Hey Fartbean",he greets me with great entusiasum,"where you goin'?"

I just step aside and try walking past him,but he puts his hand infront of me. He's a rich boy who always gets his way,so me denying to talk to him got him kinda pissed off."I said,where ya goin'?" he asked with a menicing look in his eyes,his friends as I rememeber crowding around. "I don't have to tell you everything you disgusting bastard. Now move your dirty arm,I don't know where its been." I say as I try to duck out of the crowd,he pushes me against the wall.
