Ch.1
I don't know how someone could be so cruel to another human being. Destroy someone and not even care. Make them afraid to breath or even blink wrong. But that is exactly what that monster did to her. The bastard hurt the love of my life and I'm not going to sit around and watch him end it. Cause that's not who I am. I protect the ones I love.

"Oh my gosh you guys have to come see this." Cat practically yells, running up to the group and bumping into Jade and Beck.
"Gosh, Cat watch out." Jade says with menace in her voice, "You nearly knocked me down."
"Sorry Jade, I was just really excited." Cat says looking down. She hates when Jade was mean to her.
"So, what do you want us to see Cat?" Tori questions. Placing her hand on Cat's shoulder to cheer her up. While glaring at Jade.
"Yeah, what is sooo important that you had to hit me?" Jade asks ignoring Tori's stare.
"Just follow me and you'll find out" Cat states before running off towards the Black Box theater.
"Okay, I guess we're going that way." Says Tori looking between her friends before following the red-head to the theater. As the group got closer they could hear someone playing a piano and doing a pretty good job too. When everyone was in front of the doors leading into the theater. Cat put her forefinger up to lips telling everyone to be quiet. She then opened the door as quietly as possible and made her way inside. When everyone was inside she points to the stage where the music was coming from. Up on the stage sitting at a piano was a girl about their age, with black hair with red streaks that went down past her shoulders, and what looked like a tattoo in the shape of a crescent moon on her left wrist. She was playing the most beautiful song the group had ever heard. As the group moved closer to get a better view the song ended, much to everyone's regret. Tori and Cat were the first to start clapping, soon joined by Beck, André, and Robby, even Jade started clapping. Upon hearing applause. The girl turns around blushing and giving the group a better look at the new student. She is wearing a dark blue shirt with a black vest over it, black skinny jeans and converse that had blood splatter print.
"Sorry, I thought I was alone." the girl says bashfully, not looking up and keeping her gaze towards the floor. "It was such a gorgeous piano I couldn't resist playing it." the girl continues, finally looking up at the group if front of her, giving the group a view at her hazel-green eyes.
"That was amazing where did you learn to play like that?" André exclaims still clapping and in awe-struck by the girl on the stage.
"Ya, I've never heard anything so pretty before." Cat chimes in not wanting to be left out.
"Thanks, my mom played once for me when I was little and I always thought it was the most beautiful thing I ever heard, so when I got old enough I taught myself how to play." the girl says still blushing, but glad someone likes her song.
"I've never heard that song before. What's it called?" Andre asks. Never taking he's eyes off of the girl.
"It doesn't have a name yet." the girl says tentatively, but talking a little more loudly.
"Does it have any lyrics?" Tori asks walking towards the end of the stage.
"Yeah it does. But they're not finished yet." the girl says standing up and walking to the edge of the stage where Tori was standing. Looking over the people in front of her cautiously.
"By the way I'm Tori and these are my friends." Tori says pointing to the group standing behind her.
"Yeah, I'm not your friend." Jade says making everyone look at her. Tori just rolls her eyes and looks back at the girl who was trying not to smile at what Jade said.
"Hi, I'm Cat." Cat says as she joins Tori at the end of the stage. Bouncing up and down as she goes with not a care in the world and the worlds biggest smile on her face.
"I'm Caleigh. Caleigh Connors." the girl says shyly, jumping off the stage so she was eye level with everyone. Down on the ground the group could see she's just a little taller than Cat but not as tall as Tori or Jade and has a small scar over her left eye brow. She also looked a little tense, but they just chalked that up to being the new girl, at a new school, talking to strange people.
"Nice to meet you Caleigh." says Tori holding out her hand to shake Caleigh's and noticing the girl flinch. Caleigh realizing what Tori was doing, took her hand and shook it. Hoping Tori didn't notice her odd reaction to the gesture. Tori did notice and thought it was odd that the girl flinch, but ignored it. "That's Andre, Robby, Beck, and Jade." Tori continues, releasing Caleigh's hand and pointing to the respective parties while naming them.
"Nice to meet you all." Caleigh says politely. Relieved Tori didn't comment on her strange behavior and scolding herself for flinching at the friendly gesture.
"Back at ya." Andre, Beck, and Robby says at the same time, looking at each other with questioning looks, trying to understand the girls strange demeanor.
"Whatever. I'm hungry lets get lunch." Jade huffs rolling her eye's, bored and a little curious of the new girl. She turns on her heels leaving the group behind and heading to the Asphalt Cafe outside, without another word.
"Sorry about her." Beck says embarrassed by his ex-girlfriend's attitude ."You get use to it." he states before walking out of the Black Box to find Jade and to scold her for not being nicer to Caleigh.
"Any ways. Do you want to come eat lunch with us?" Tori asks looking at Caleigh, hoping to make up for Jade's bad attitude.
"I don't know." Caleigh says timidly. Thinking back on all her odd behavior.
"Please come eat with us. It will be fun." Cat chimes in. Walking over to Caleigh with a puppy dog look on her face. Caleigh thinks a moment. Looking between the four people, still in the theater, in front of her.
"Okay, sure." Caleigh says picking up her backpack and giving Cat a half-smile.
"YAY!" Cat yells, running over to Caleigh and enveloping her in a big hug.
"Um...Little Red...I don't think she can breathe." Andre states walking over to pull Cat off of Caleigh.
"Thanks." Caleigh says laughing, while trying to get oxygen back in her lungs.
"Sorry." Cat says grabbing Caleigh's hand and dragging her outside to lunch. Andre, Robby, and Tori laugh as they run down the halls after Cat and Caleigh.
