Chapter 1

"Smile!" the cameraman said while adjusting the camera to make it point straight at me. Yes, like you guessed, today is picture day. The most wonderful day in spring, where months later people will be receiving their yearbooks to write mustaches and horns on the people who didn't quite deserve to be left alone. And I happened to be one of those people.

"Hey, Korra! What kind of facial hair do you want this year?" It was 3 days before school was over, and a kid in my class just had to pick on me today. The boy flipped to Mr. Candells page and pointed the black Sharpie at my picture. "Last year I gave you sideburns, so this year I'll give you a long, wispy beard. My treat." The kids around him snickered like the assholes they were.

"Back off, dude. What did she ever do to you? You guys are really immature for 15 year-olds." I heard a rough voice right behind me, its breath softly grazing my ear. I dared not to look, since I felt as if this dude could grab me by the throat and kill me with one blow. But I stared in amazement at the gang of my classmates because they looked like hell was about to come loose. Suddenly, I knew this guy behind me was not the type to mess with.

"Shit."

"Damn."

"Crap"

With that, the gang sped away in a speed so fast, I thought they would pass their houses and go all the way to the other side of the United States.

That's when I turned around.
