Hey, Danielle here \(^0^)/
This is going to be a Fanfiction based around the story Pandora Hearts by Jun Mochizuki. Italics is for what the character is thinking and regular font like this is what's going on in the story. Anyway, I hope you like it! It's the first one of many that I'll be writing so please RRR! Thanks :D
OH by the way when Alice is introducing herself I was thinking of putting it in italics because I guess in a way she's thinking but in a way she's not…you know? It seems OOC at first but trust me the real Alice will show up soon mwah ha ha. Ok enough jokes, enjoy now for reals.
~Chapter One: Emerald Eyes~
Alice's POV
Another first day, in another new school, great. How many more times does she expect me to go through with this?
I sigh quite loudly getting stares from everyone on the bus. I ignore them and continue looking out to the window.
Hey there. My name's Alice Baskerville and as you can see I'm not in a very good mood right now. Want to know why? Well, apparently my Mom feels it very necessary to move every freaking year for the past 4 years all because of some dumb thing that happened in my family. All I can remember is that my Dad, Jack as my Mother now calls him, did something terrible. I don't exactly recall what happened because well…just because. For some reason I can't remember anything that happened on that fateful day. I can only remember fragments, pieces of the story that I can't quite put together yet. Hopefully one day I can put all the pieces together and understand why Mom hates him so much, but for now all I have to worry about is this dumb new school I'm going to.
Where am I going anyway? Did I even get on the right bus?
Looking around hastily I calm down and realize that I did get on the right bus and pull out the school's brochure from my bag. On the front in very big letters read:
Pandora: A school for the wealthy and the elite, where only the best of the best can go!
Pandora, huh? Wonder if I'll make any new friends here…not that it really matters anyway. By the end of the year I'll be moving again so what's the point?
I furrow my brows together frowning at what I just thought.
I should be optimistic! Maybe Mom won't make me move again next year. Maybe, just maybe she'll be satisfied.
As I look away from the window, I realize that the bus has stopped and everyone was already out of the bus and the driver was looking at me.
"Well are ya gonna get off or what kid? I got places to be!" the man yells. "Don't make me say it again. I said get off!"
This guy is not helping with me trying to be optimistic at all. Someone oughta teach him some manners.
Standing up I brush off my skirt and just as I was about to get off I say "Was gonna get off anyway. With driving skills as bad as the ones that you have, I can't bear to stay on this bus any longer." The look on his face was priceless. Smirking I hop off and start walking towards the school.
As I walk towards the school one thing that I notice is that it. Is. HUGE. Even bigger than my love for meat; if that was even possible. Suddenly I remember from the brochure that it said Pandora has 4 buildings in total. It includes a Gym, Cafeteria, Auditorium, and last but not least is the actual school itself. Along with that are smaller buildings that are probably used for clubs and fields with small ponds in them connected to a river.
Looks like Mom wasn't kidding when she said that the school was huge.
I stopped for a second to look at them. The school was designed after the old gothic style from the 1600's. Large spires pointed towards the sky, with gargoyles littered on the sides of the buildings and of course stained glass windows instead of regular glass to add the finishing touch. Each building followed the same design with a different pattern of stained glass for each. After admiring the buildings, I continued to walk forward again. I turn my head to the left and realize that I see the bus driver form earlier talking to some guy in a suit.
Sensing something bad was coming I walked a little faster, and tried to keep up with the crowd that surrounded me. I glance and realize that he's pointing at me.
Shoot. Crap, crap, crap.
"Hey you! The girl with the braids in her hair! Come here please." The man next to the driver said.
Curse genetics for making me short and having short legs to go along with it.
Grumbling I make my way over to them. The man was very tall and had a seaweed kind of looking hair. He had a western hat on his head and as I approached the two I noticed he had golden eyes. He looked pretty young so I'd be surprised if he said he was a Teacher and not a student.
"Yes, sir?" I ask as sweetly as I can.
I swear if it's about earlier I'm gonna—
"This man told me that you said something rude to him. I want you to apologize immediately." He said in a stern voice.
And it is. This guy is gonna regret asking me to apologize. I'm Alice Baskerville! No one bosses me around.
"Why should I? This so called man right here yelled at me to get off the bus. Last time I recalled," and I paused to look at the driver. He looked kind of panicky now. I squinted and continued "you're getting paid to drive me so you better watch it." I spat.
Did he just tremble? Wow, what a baby.
"You cannot talk to your elders like that. Apologize!" the man said again.
"And what if I don't?" I questioned.
No way in hell is this guy gonna make me say I'm sorry.
"I'll, I'll suspend you…you baka usagi!" he yelled.
What the? Did he just call me a stupid rabbit?!
"What did you just say seaweed head?!" I yelled back.
"I called you a stupid rabbit! And what even gave you the right to call me a seaweed head?!"
"When you called me a stupid rabbit!" I retorted.
"Well for your information my name is Professor Nightray so you better treat me with respect!"
So he is a teacher. Still doesn't change the fact that he called me a stupid rabbit.
"Still a seaweed head. Can I go to class now?" I was getting really tired of talking to him and I wanted to just get this day over with.
"Not until you apologize to him!" He started to point at the bus driver but he wasn't there. Not only that but several students were looking at us as well.
"Wha—where did he?"
"Nice going seaweed head. You scared him off." I said with a smug look on my face.
"Argh you baka usagi!" he roared.
"Seaweed head. Seaweed head." I sang. This is actually fun, ridiculing him.
Just as I was about to continue with the next verse of my song, a new voice interrupted.
"Hey, stop it you two! Let's not make a scene here. Gil you should know better than to yell at a student like that." The guy said. He looked around to be my age. I looked at him with a skeptical look on his face.
Who does this guy think he is interrupting a conversation like that?!
"And just who do you think you are?" I barked putting my hands on my hips.
"Ah sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Oz Vessalius; nice to meet you!" Oz replied offering his hand to me. I huffed and just ignored him.
"Oz, what are you doing? You should be getting to class!" Gil, or Professor Nightray as I should call him, said to him.
"Well, I just wanted to say Hi to this pretty lady that you were just talking to." he said as he flashed a dazzling smile my way. I blushed a little, but that still doesn't change the fact that he rudely interrupted me.
"Besides, that was quite a conversation you two were having." he chuckled.
Frowning once again, I regained my composure and turned to face him.
"Well I think my job is done here. I'm going to leave now." I stated and just as I was about to walk away I felt someone grab my hand. As I whirled around to face whoever grabbed my hand I noticed that it was just Oz. Now that I got a closer look at him, I saw as to what he looked really looked like. Blonde messy hair covered his eyes. He turned them up to look at me and when he did I realized they were a beautiful shade of emerald.
"Wait, I never got your name! And it also seems like we're in the same grade so I was wondering if you'd like to go to class together?" he asked flashing that ridiculous smile of his again, his eyes twinkling.
"Just how did you know we're in the same grade?" I was starting to get creeped out by this guy. Not only was he so happy but he also smiled way too much; for a normal person at least.
"Well we're wearing the same kind of uniform. Silver class, I believe?" He said as he pointed at my tie and blazer. I looked down and realized that he was right. Oz was wearing the 3rd year's uniform which was a white blazer with silver trim lining the outside. Along with that he also had on a pair of black slacks and dress shoes and to compliment it was a white dress shirt tucked in with a silver necktie to tie it off. I too was also wearing the blazer, tie and shirt but instead of slacks I wore a black skirt, black knee high socks and white Maryjane shoes. I harrumphed.
Guess he was right, but anyone could have noticed that.
"Ya ok well, I don't need your help so bye." I walked off again and this time he didn't stop me.
Finally, I thought that that conversation would never end.
I entered through the front doors and saw the sign that lead to the office. I walked in and asked for my schedule. The lady at the desk handed me my schedule without even bothering to look at me.
Gee the people here sure are welcoming.
Glancing at my schedule I saw that I was already late for home room which was on the 2nd floor. Not only that but I also had Professor Nightray as my Home Room teacher as well.
What a time to be alive. I thought to myself sarcastically.
A/N
Well that was the first chapter! I hope you liked it. I wasn't so sure how to end it but I hope it makes sense. Anyway what happens to Oz? Will Alice ever see him again? And how will Gil react as to seeing Alice again? Read the next chapter to find out! Also please don't forget to RRR. Well, until the next A/N. Bye! :D
