The lightning illuminated the dark night sky. She stared in disbelief in what was going on. She gaped at the beautiful, agonizing smile, of her best friend, and love, as he toppled over, blood spurting from his mouth. "ZIM!"

ONE WEEK AGO

Of course, I had to end up moving here, enrolling in a school that couldn't even spell school properly. I sighed, and quickly tied my hip-length hair in a tight ponytail, and rushed out the door. As I turned a corner, I smacked head first into a boy with...green skin and no ears. The boy fell backwards, landing on his bottom. I did, as well. He muttered something along the lines of 'earth filth' under his breath and walked off. He was walking the direction of the school, so I curiously followed a good 7 feet behind him. He must have heard me, because he turned around and yelled "WHAT?" Naturally, I had no reply, which must have ticked him off even more, because he gave me a disgusted look and ran off. I wandered around the school, and just as I walked in, I noticed him sitting there, front row seat first to the left. He raises an almost nonexistent eyebrow at me, looking a little bit irked, and I sighed in reply. The next one to catch my eye was-well, that doesn't matter, because the 60-something looking lady walked up to me scowling. I flinched, out of pure instinct. The lady parted her dry lips to speak. "Class, this is the new...useless extension of this class. Child," She turned her glower towards me again. "If you have something to say, say it now, because, after his moment is over, I don't want to hear another word from you." I looked at the class, nervous. They culd probably tell, because all of them tried to look distracted. This was going to be a long day... But, I was saved by the bell, as people say, because right when I was about to try to say something the bell went off. The lady, who was apparently called 'Mrs. Bitters', sat at her desk, and did something that looked life she was filing papers. "Go, now." We left in what was definitely not a the 'single file' manner, and I happened to trip, and, yet again, back into that boy with the green skin , causing us both to tumble backwards. He let out a tiny gasp, and I turned red of embarrassment. He got up and looked at me, and walked away. I stared, wondering what was so different about that greed-skinned child...
