"And now the time is here,
Baby you don't have to live your life in fear
And the sky is clear, is clear of fear
Of fear
Don't wanna live in fear and loathing
I wanna feel like I am floating
Instead of constantly exploding
In fear and loathing.
And when the time comes along
And the lights run out,
I know where I will belong
When they blow me out."
Marina&The Diamonds
Hey!
He punched her.
Hey!
Kicked her.
Hey!
And brought her down.
It's 8 AM
She slowly ascends the stairs that lay before her: the pain that waited for her; her burden. Each step felt heavier: maybe do to her rain-soaked clothes, or because of the dread the seeped into her being. The last step, it took all her sanity to keep her feet rooted to keep from running. It was her job to bear on the sentencing of the guilty. She should have run a long time ago: but it was all stuck.
Felling suffocated, she inhaled a sharp breath: calming her beating heart. She lurched deep down inside of her, grasping what bit of courage she had left; reaching for the door.

This Hell I'm in
As she roamed the halls, she walked past the counselors office, beyond help. They couldn't help her; they wouldn't want to. No one did. She was the alien, and she knew it. The stares, whispers, and the silence; how saddening. She was truly alone: not even the slightest of talk was given by her old friends: she called them.
"You're with them now!" She couldn't believe the site that lay unfolding in front of her. those she had once called "friends" were en-loping her whispering, casting her dirty looks: it broke her heart. The people she'd played with and told secrets too, all in one place. Pitting against her.
Falling to her knees, she buried her pain soaked eyes along with the shame into her palms. She had put her trust into the wrong people; given everything. It took her everything she knew to trust them; all for nothing.
Seems I've crossed the line again
Coming to a halt: her eyes rested upon her locker. Full of anticipation and angst, regardless she opened the locker. empty. A sigh escaped her mouth full of the feelings that had welled up inside her. Why would they give her anything, the expressions they gave her told it all. Nothing. That's all she was to them. Nothing.
For being nothing more than who I am
Every crime of her school had been placed on her, not by the law, but by the laws of the schools students. No, she wasn't being punished because of who she was: she was being punished by the students for what her school did.
The incident was between the two schools: all she knew was that when the students handled disputes, the law would always get involved. So the principles decided to join the schools on Challenge day: it was an all out war with the games that would be set up. Her stomach lurched at the thought of the Challenge day arrival; call in sick. To avoid the hatred of everyone: maybe they'd be more consumed their anger against one another.
So break my bones
She stepped out of he girls room clad in her p.e shorts and white T-shirt, and proceeded to put her bag containing her wet and muddy clothes. She turned to leave but Only to come face to face with him. Her heart found safety within her throat in his presence : she soon realized how her breathing became scarce. Her heat began raging ruthlessly against her chest; thoughts frantic.
Oh no!
And throw your stones
She stayed quiet looking him in his eyes. "What's wrong with you: can't speak?" he raised a questioning brow with the biggest of mirth on his face. He smelt every ounce of fear he aroused from her being: she was sure of it, because he stepped closer backing her into the lockers: her eyes hadn't blinked yet. She realized how her tongue became rough inside her mouth: her heart resting in her stomach. His smile couldn't possibly grow more sadistic: and she couldn't pray for help any harder.
H-her safe façade cracked as her eyes began to sting. He leaned in closer peering down at her.
We all know that life ain't fair
"Leave me alone!" she said unsteadily attempting to push him away with her shaky hands. His Smirked morphed into a toothy grin; as he grabbed hold of her hands he pinned them on either sides of her. "Well the only way that'll ever happen is if you beat me: and we both know that ain't gonna happen."
The fear inside of her grew and transpired into anger. Why?
Why couldn't she be strong; how had she let herself become so defenseless. There was no one to blame, it had all become her fault: she played her role perfectly; mouse. And yet the only person she could be upset with is; herself. Angry at herself for being so weak for so long: and not fighting for what she knew she deserved. Equality.
But there is more of us
Her gaze towards him grew darker as her blue bangs covered her eyes. "I said..leave..me..alone." The words came out slow and steady, momentarily surprising the figure before her. "I already told you it ain't gonna happen unless you wanna taste defeat."
She lifted her head to meet his gaze, and she let her attention linger on the scar running down his face. "I will not lose to you any more." he released his grip on her with a laugh that echoed through her being.
"Well if it's a fight you want then it's a fight you'll get."
We're everywhere
Behind him she saw two figures step forward. Help?. Her thought suddenly faded when she saw the distinguished green and orange hair. How foolish was she to think anyone would help her. And that added fuel to her fire.
Loke stared at her with so much hatred in his eyes: scary. "Why are you even wasting your breath on her." his hard gaze only held the look of such blood lust, rage, and loathing: all for her. Being brave, she glance at Freed only to see such distaste and bitterness in his eyes: and she was certain a good amount of hate too. "Such vermin shall not be allowed to roam freely within our domain." he said eyes still locked with her. "Get lost." came his annoyed reply. Loke stared slightly at Laxus, and began to walk away with Freed , but stopped before he turned the hall and gazed over his shoulder eyes locked with her. "Just clean up the trash; cause I promise to do it if you don't, and I do promise to clean up." and with that they left without a second glance.
Laxus stepped back and gestured her first with a smile. "let's take this outside then, shall we."
We don't have to take this
No!
Back against the wall
Today, she came in weak,
We don't have to take this
And she determined to leave stronger.
We can end it all
If not dead, then free.
All you'll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
And the effects meant nothing, until someone was dead.
Push them to the dirt till the words don't hurt
Can you hear me?
No one's gonna cry on the very day you die
You're a bully
Think it through, you can't undo
The park had become their battle field mere feet apart. From the wired fence, to the soggy ground beneath them.
Whenever I see black and blue
I feel the past, I share the bruise
Every now and then she'd watch him, not crying out but lashing. Silently soaking in his tattered emotions.
With everyone who's come and gone
Could he really be damaged as he seems?
My head is clear, my voice is strong,
The cold rain bit at her skin as the dark clouds roared cracking the skies with white fury. The rain and mud clinging to the various spaces on their clothes.
Nothing
Neither of them made any movements, just stares. His grey eyes locked with her deep blues, a smirk playing at his lips. "You know it's not too late for you give up." tightening her fist: she raised her head as she spoke, "I'm sorry," his arms folded with his grin growing wider, "I have no intentions of losing to you."
Now I'm right here to right the wrong
The hard gaze he had been full of spite, anger, and pain..
We don't have to take this, back against the wall
We don't have to take this, we can end it all!
The pressure that welled up inside her lashed out, as a piercing scream.
All you'll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don't hurt
Can you hear me?
No one's gonna cry on the very day you die
You're a bully
(Solo)
It's 8 AM, the Hell I'm in!
Your voice is strong, now right the wrong!
All you'll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Without warning, they charged at one another.
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
The distance between them became shorter and shorter
Push them to the dirt till the words don't hurt
Can you hear me?
Suddenly her arms fell limp to her sides.
No one's gonna cry on the very day you die
He, was hugging her. He embraced her tightly to her utter shock. His stiff body was tensing rigidly, as he spoke. "I'm sorry." something warm trickled down her checks as he embraced her tighter, "I'm sorry Juvia."
You're a bully
All you'll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely

Can you hear me?
No one's gonna cry on the very day you die
You're a bully
We don't have to take this, back against the wall
We don't have to take this, we can end it all
We don't have to take this, back against the wall
We don't have to take this, we can end it all
We don't have to take this, back against the wall
We don't have to take this, we can end it all
We don't have to take this, back against the wall
We don't have to take this, we can end it all
