Dear Diary,
From the moment he stepped into my grade 6 class I knew he was different. It wasn't just his bright red hair, wicked grin he always seemed to have, there was something off about him. Of course my suspicions were confirmed later that same day when he not only tried to correct the teacher on historical facts; he insisted that she was completely wrong! He refused to back down on it and called Mrs. Saunders something that I don't think I should repeat. The only one who could finally calm him down was this other weird new kid. She looked allot like him so you think they would be siblings but they act completely differently! The girl, Mitsu I think it was, was really quiet, cheerful and polite. The boy on the other hand, Ryuu, was her total opposite, he was loud violent and arrogant. He only seems to care about himself and doesn't really get along with anyone but Mitsu. They're definitely a weird pair... Both of them never seem to study for anything, but still manage to get the best grades in our class! I really wonder how they do that, it can't be normal. Ryuu's really good at sports too, he's really fast, strong and clever. In fact, don't tell anyone i think this ok diary? He's also kinda cute... I've always wondered what he thinks of me. And not just me, everyone else too! It's not that uncommon for him to just be looking out the window in class, completely absorbed in his thoughts... I can't help but worry though, this one time when these bigger kids were picking on Mitsu he got really mad, and i mean REALLY mad. He tries to beat them up, and did a pretty good job of it too, that guy is like a demon when you get him mad, even though by the end of it he ended up with a black eye. He got in big trouble for it and refused to apologize to them, even when he was in the office, so they called in his parents. Now this is the really weird part. The person that came only looked about 14! I think she might have had to leave school to come to our school! There was also no way that she was related to them, I mean she had green hair! I was in the office delivering the attendance for my class so I hear the whole conversation!
"So
you understand why your ummm... son is in trouble?"
"I'm not
their parent, I'm more like their guardian"
"Well ok, but do
you understand why he's in trouble?"
"I think I got it; there
were some kids picking on his sister so he beat them up and now he's
in trouble for defending her, right?
"Well actually it's not
really- The school does not allow violence under any
circumstance."
"Ok, ok. So what does he have to do now?"
"Well
we were thinking that since he has been know to get into allot of
fights we were considering, well expulsion."
There was total
silence for a couple seconds.
"Your gonna expel him? For
defending his sister?"
"Well this isn't his first offence
so-"
Another bit of silence, this time it lasted a while so I
peaked through the blinds of the room the were talking in. It was
really creepy. It looked kind of like Ryuu's mo-guardian's eyes were
glowing! She was looking
right into the office lady's eyes. Neither of them blinked.
"What
were you saying about Ryuu's punishment?"
"We decided that we
will let him off since he was protecting someone else."
"Now
that's what I wanted to hear."
At that point I freaked a bit and ran back to class, I haven't told anybody about that yet. I don't think I will either. Ryuu is defiantly a strange person, but that lady that takes care of him; she's just creepy!
