chap1- a long day

"Grr... why in the name of God Almighty does school have to start so EARLY?!!!?!?" a grumpy emerald-eyed girl said as her alarm clock once again woke her from her deep slumber. Hitomi Kansaki, a 15 year old sophomore at Fanalia high, still after all these years, never got up on time.

"Hitomiiii!!!! Hurry up honey-face, you don't to be late for school-again. Oh and by the way, wake up your brother!" Hitomi's mother said in a singsong voice that could make her just want to kill something, or someone. Reluctantly, Hitomi slumped out of her warm, fleece blanket and got into the shower. After a quick shower, Hitomi got dressed in her usual attire: back jeans, red top, black and red gloves that had holes for her fingers and went up to her elbow, and black boots with red laces. She had red and black dice earrings and red and black rocker bracelets.

"perfect." she said as she looked at herself in the mirror.

"HITOMI!!! ARE YOU UP YET?!?!?!?" Her mother's screech came again.

"Ugh... one day I'm just gonna shoot myself, and end my misery..." Hitomi grumbled as she made her way to the bathroom. When she came out, she had a jug of ice, cold water. She quietly walked into her brother's room and then...dumped it on him.

"What the heck?!!!?!?!?" Marmarou, her little brother screamed as he became soaked in water." what the heck is wrong with you woman?! Trying to make me catch a c-cold!!!?!?!?!? He stuttered. "

No. it's time for YOU to move YOUR BUTT and get out of here." hitomi said casually.

"Grr... you know... you could have woken me up a little more nicely..."

"Could have, should have, would have, but didn't." Hitomi said coolly.

"Hump!" Marmarou pouted as he started to get dressed.

"Good morning sweetie! How was your night? Sleep well? Did you wake up your brother? You do know that he has to leave the house in 10 minutes, otherwise he'll miss the bus and- Hitomi's mother was cut off by Hitomi raising her hand to silence her mother.

"Yes, I had a good night, yes I slept well, and yes I did wake up Marms, and yes I know he's gonna be late." Hitomi answered.

"thanks, hon. here's your lunch, and your breakfast bagel to go" her mom said smiling.

"thanks, ma'" hitomi couldn't help it. Even though her mother was one of the most annoying, barbi-like people, she did have some of the traits of a caring, thoughtful, considerate-

"Honey, must u wear that, that, outfit? It's hideous! Always black and red, black and red...sigh what will i do with you?" her mom's voice interrupted her thoughts.

'Okay, strike that. NOT CONSIDERATE' hitomi thought. With that, she grabbed her food, book bag, and keys and headed to her car: a sliver jaguar convertible. Despite the fact that she was only 15 yrs, she drove anyway, she doesn't care. 'Oh boy, it's gonna be a long day' Hitomi thought as she sped to Fanalia High.

"What on Gaea is taking mom sooooo long????!?!??!" a pink haired girl said tapping her foot impatiently. Her cerulean eyes flashed around the room they were in and back to her older brother.

"Patience is a virtue, Merle" a husky, deep, masculine voice said.

"Yeah, yeah, blah, blah, blah. I know you are just as ticked off as i, Van." Merle retorted, her cat-like eyes flashing once again at the door, the exit, the way to... freedom.

"Come on Merle, don't look at that door as if it's your only hope for survival." Van said laughing, his red eyes shinning with humor and love for his little sister. "It may be my only hope- look! Mom's comin'." sure enough two people emerged from the second door, one male and one female.

"Well, Merle, Van. All i can say is welcome to Fanalia High!" the male one said. "We look forward to having you both attending here."

"Thank you sir" Van and Merle said together.

"No need for the 'sir' business. It's just Principal Dornkirk" he said with a huge smile on his face.

"Well, I'll see you both later on then you two. Merle, you have soccer practice correct? Very well then, van? Do you mind if you take the bus today?" the female said.

"Sure thing, mom." Van replied.

"You have done a wonderful job raising these two kids Varie." Dornkirk complimented.

"Thank you Dornkirk. Well, see you all later." With that Varie left her two children.

"Well, you two should get going now, here are your schedules, don't loose them. Van, you're a sophomore, correct? Ok. And Merle you're a freshman? Ok, well off you go." with that both teens left that office to start a new day at this place.

" FINALLY!!! I thought we were never gonna get out!!"Merle said stretching. Van just sighed and headed off to his homeroom. 'It's gonna be a long day' van thought.

Well, what do you think? Love it? Hate it? Please read and review!!
