Well, just a new fanfic series that I am starting. I know this is quite a cliche here at but oh well, I guess I just couldn't help it! Also, the first parts of this story was done quite sometime ago, so forgive me if it's weakminded or something. Main couple is XianghuaxKilik, along with some surprises.
Also, to my readers of Warriors: Deep Chaos; it is on hiatus. Sorry bout that. But please enjoy this new fic!
Xianghua was riding a black sedan, her father driving for her. She looked out the car window and sighed. Today was the first day of school. For the fourth time, she had transferred to another school. It was always happening ever since she was grade one. Now, she was a second-year student.
"We're here!" her father told her. She got out, dragging her pale purple shoulderbag behind her. She thanked her dad and said 'Bye!' to him before facing the school courtyard. There were a lot of students, but she would have to make friends later. She had to find her dorm room first. She quickly went into the building.
She discovered they had an elevator, because the school was a very rich one. The principal, Nightmare, had lots of money, but they didn't know where he got it from.
She quickly got into the steel elevator and looked at the number buttons. The first, second and third floor were the classrooms, laboratory and restaurant, while the fourth were the dorms. The principal's office, the faculty room and the stage room were on the fifth. The fifth was the rooftop.
Xianghua pressed the 5 button and the elevator started to move upward.
When the elevator reached the third floor, it suddenly stopped. In walked a young man, about one year older than her, with brown hair and a V-shaped scar on the left side of his face. He wore a white shirt with black rims, and baggy-ish black pants with black and white sneakers. A single chain was connected from his belt to his left back pants pocket.
Xianghua, on the other hand, wore a pastel pink ruffled miniskirt and a light blue and white blouse, with blue sandals with white flowers on them, and a white string belt.
There was a pause before the boy looked at her and smiled. "You must be a new student, huh?" he said.
Xianghua nodded. "Y-yes. I am Chai Xianghua." she told him, apparently flustered.
"Hello there. My name's Kilik." Kilik replied, smiling at her brightly.
Soon, the elevator arrived at the fifth floor and both got off.
"Where are you off to?" Kilik asked her, looking at her.
"To the principal's office. I have to ask him for my schedule and dorm number." she replied, slinging her bag on her right shoulder.
"Well, I'm going to pay for something. See you here after your meeting with Mr. Nightmare." he said, before walking off towards the faculty room.
Xianghua waved at him before walking to the principal's office, her heart beating loudly. Nightmare was known to be scary and cruel, but her father told her he was... an okay man.
She knocked on his door. "Come in!" she heard a gruff, rough voice answer her knock. She turned the ice-cold knob before entering.
She gazed at the monstrosity befor her. There sat Nightmare, in front of a desk. He wore a full suit of armor, and a helmet that hid most of his face, but left out only his eyes, which were bright yellowish-red.
"Hello... Chai Xianghua. Good morning." he said finally after taking a long look at a sheet of paper with data on it as Xianghua took a seat in front of his desk.
"G-good morning, sir." she replied, trying to force a smile. She was scared at him. What was her father thinking? That he was an 'okay' man? She wasn't even sure that he was a human being. She shrugged this off as Nightmare leaned sideways and grabbed a piece of paper firmly from one of his drawers.
"Here is your schedule and dorm number. Do you have any questions?" he asked, giving her the paper. She smiled brightly this time and shook her head. He was kind of nice, even though he looked like a monster.
"Good then. You may go." he uttered as she left.
"Xianghua!" Kilik called to her as he ran towards the spot in front of the elevator, where they had split ways after they had met. He stopped and panted.
Xianghua looked at him and smiled softly. "Hello, Kilik."
He smiled back.
"Can I look at your schedule?" he asked politely. She gave it to him.
Kilik scanned it briefly before smiling, his eyes widened. He handed it back to her, exclaiming, "We have the same classes! Awesome!"
She smiled back. "That's nice."
"Oh, I'll go and show you around now." he replied, lightly touching her shoulder.
First, he led her to the Girls' Dorm. He waited patiently inside while she entered.
Xianghua looked for her bed number. On the paper, it said she was on Bed Number 3. She found her bed. She unpacked her things into the drawer next to the bed, and her clothes into a chest on the other side. On top of the drawer was a lamp. The clothe that protected it was canvas, paintable. She wondered why it was like that. After she packed, she went outside to join Kilik.
First, Kilik led her to the Courtyard. He led her to a group of young people, aged just like her and Kilik.
"Hey guys! This is Xianghua, a new student." he announced, motioning to her. Xianghua waved nervously at them.
"This is Maxi." Kilik said, pointing to a guy with tan skin and black elvis hair. He was about the same age as Kilik, maybe a little bit older. He smirked and waved at her. "Hey, cutie-pie. Better call heaven, 'cause they may be missing an angel." Maxi said, winking at her.
Kilik shifted his feet beside Xianghua uncomfortably. Suddenly, a young girl, about the same age as Xianghua, with short blond hair and a headband sighed. "Don't worry about him. He's like that." she said, exasperated. "I am Cassandra Alexandra, by the way." she added.
Kilik nodded at her gratefully. Then he motioned to a red-haided boy next to Maxi. He had spiky hair and he looked rough. "This is Yun Seong." then he motioned to the girl sitting beside her. She was the same age as Maxi. "And this is his sister, Seong Mi-na." Kilik added.
"I'd prefer to be called something else rather than 'his sister'." Seong Mi-na mumbled.
Kilik pointed to a young girl, again the same age as Xianghua, seated next to Cassandra. She looked like a Filipino, and her hair was tied in two neat bundles that hung loosely behind her. "Hello there. I am Talim." she simply smiled at Xianghua and continued reading her book.
And finally. he pointed to a girl with red, drill-styled pigtail hair sitting beside Talim. She was apparently the youngest, a year younger than Xianghua. She looked depressed, and had pale skin. She wore a neutral experssion, if not frowning. "And this is Amy." Kilik said simply. Amy kept her eyes down and made a sound.
"That's pretty much it." Kilik finally said.
After she met her new acquaintances, Xianghua introduced herself. After the group dispersed as the bell rang, she followed Kilik, Yun Seong, Talim and Cassandra to class. The first subject was Mathematics.
Xianghua stopped at the door and looked around, a little nervous. Cassandra sensed this and put a hand on her shoulder. "You can come sit with me and and Talim." she offered, smiling at her. Xianghua looked towards Kilik.
"Oh, don't mind him. He's hanging out with Yun Seong. You'll get him after class." Cassandra winked, making Xianghua blush. She wasn't sure she felt that way for Kilik, but he seemed like an okay guy.
Xianghua meekly followed Cassandra and Talim. Cassandra gestured to a seat between hers and Talim's. Xianghua looked at her gratefully, then sat down. She looked around the class. There were a lot of students she didn't know yet, but she felt she was comfortable where she was hanging out.
Before she could think of anything else, the door barged open. In walked an odd-looking man. He was quite old, but fit. But what was odd, was that he had a huge white owl head for a head, and a white owl's lower body for a lower body. His yellow eyes aimed through the students. Xianghua felt as if he were looking into their very souls.
"Good morning, class! Nice to see you again!" he boomed. He had a deep voice that made Xianghua almost flinch. But it looked like most of the students were used to it.
"Good morning, Mr. Olcadan! I't's nice to see you today!" the class chimed.
"Nice to see you too, class! Now, I understand we have a new student? May she please come up here and introduce herself?" Olcadan asked, pointing to the front of the class.
Xianghua stood up and walked, shyly, towards the front. She looked at Olcadan and he nodded towards her.
"My name is Chai Xianghua, and I am 16 years old. I-I was born in China, and I came here to Japan to study. Please take care of me." she said.
"What a hottie!" a guy rang out. Some girls rolled their eyes and fiddled with strands of their hair.
Olcadan finally let her sit back on her seat. She quickly walked to her seat and sat down. Talim and Cassandra gave her smiles.
"Now, for our first lesson..."
After Math, Xianghua and her two new friends walked out of the class.
"So, what do you think so far?" Cassandra asked. "About what?" Xianghua enquired.
"About our class, silly!" Cassandra replied, chuckling. Talim looked up from her book and immediatley grew red. Xianghua, seeing this, looked at the direction she was staring at.
A gruff-looking man was walking down the hall. He had a rough shave, and a glare.
"Oh, that is Mr. Mitsurugi. He's our teacher in Gym, Ways of the Sword, and our Vice Principal. Talim has a crush on him." Cassandra laughed lightly. Talim looked at her with an angry look. "D-do not!" she replied, holding her books to her chest more tightly.
"Whatever, Talim. It's quite transparent that you do. Poor Yun..." Cassandra said slyly. "What do you mean?" Talim replied, suspicious. "Oh nothing!" Cassandra said. Xianghua giggled as Talim started punching the blond girl on the arm lightly.
"Hey, girls!" somebody suddenly said.
The three turned around to find a guy with spiky brown hair and tattoos visible through his white shirt. Behind him was a guy whose hair was up in a ponytail, and a shy looking guy whose hair was also up in a ponytail. They sure do dress weird, Xianghua thought.
"How 'bout we take you to the Candy shop? I'll let you lick a lollipop!" the spiky-haired guy said. He held up Xianghua's chin, making her look at his eyes. Cassandra slapped his hand, and he let go.
"Gan Ning, where the hell did you get that corny pick-up line? Leave us alone!" Cassandra said defiantly.
The shy-looking guy put a hand on his shoulder. "Gan Ning, I think we should go already." he said meekly.
"Shut it, Jiang Wei. I ain't going anywhere without one of these girls." Gan Ning replied harshly. Jiang Wei cowered back next to the other guy with a ponytail. The other guy with a ponytail moved in on Cassandra. "Hey, sweetcheeks!" he remarked. He put a hand on Cassandra's waist. This made the girl very angry.
She grabbed his hand and flipped him over, slamming him on the ground. She put his arm behind his head. "Want more of that, Ling Tong?" she asked gruffly. Ling Tong quickly stood up and ran away, shouting curses, with Gan Ning in tow. Jiang Wei quickly bowed in apology and ran after his peers.
"Who were they?" Xianghua questioned. Talim scoffed. "The worst cockroaches in the planet." she remarked. Cassandra sneered.
"That's too much of a praise for them, don't you think?" she asked. Xianghua sighed. Looks like life couldn't be so perfect after all.
