"You have ruined this family Katsuko! I don't know what to do with you! I thought this would help but no! You burnt the building down! How could you? Honestly, you have shamed this family!"
My mother choked this through tears that seemed to go on for an eternity. We were in the limo driving back from the re-education centre. A nice name for a child's jail basically. But I'm not a child, at 17 I know a trick or two, being one of the best at almost every martial art I had learned.
It had only been a few but mix and match with moves did get you some place. They thought I wasn't tough enough for a real jail. I may be small, look like a typical girl. Small petit figure, nice sized boobs a pretty face with soft golden hair. But no! God no if I could look more like a boy I would. I had cut my hair into short spikes but it always grew back!
"Look I have only one idea of what will fix this. I'm going to send you to Ouran High School. I can't deal with you anymore. Okay I know you act tough but I know you have the grades. The only reason you have been is expelled is for-"She stumbles on her words as she tried to threaten me.
"-chemical burns and broken limbs. But at Ouran they won't take your crap! You have good grades you can't deny it. Okay?" She shouted this at me. It didn't faze me; I was used to hollow threats from her. As we stopped at a big pink (EUGH) school. My mum thrust a paper bag in my hand, inside was a yellow dress and white tights. I chucked it in the back seat.
"Fine, I knew this might happen." She thrust another bag in my hand it had long black slacks a white shirt lilac blazer and black tie. That was more like it. But wait this meant I was joining today.
"Wait how can I join today with all the paper work and stuff?" I asked.
My mum smirked at me "While you were at the centre I had all of the papers filed. They know about your history but were extremely kind taking you onboard. Now get out change into that and I will see you at seven O'clock for dinner," I got out with a school bag she had thrown at me and the uniform. Then she drove off, see what I have to put up with?
I crept behind a tree and threw off my skinny jeans and vest and tugged on the boy's uniform. I made a few adjustments of my own though, I pulled out my flick knife and cut the arms of the blazer off and made the shirt shorter stopping just above my belly button (Ha I'm not a clone) I shoved the shoes that were at the bottom of the bag on and made my way to the entrance of the school. Girls stared at me and whispered to each other and some even erupted in little giggles. Luckily I had my flick knife in my back pocket so I was ready for anything that came my way.
I grabbed a timetable out of the bag and saw my first lesson Gym.
"HA!" I called out; I made my way to the gym earning weird stares and sniggers. A few guys whistled but I ignored them. I hate the way guys treat girls like objects! It's disrespectful. We are there equals. But they can't see it!
The gym was huge and split up by a huge curtain on one side there were girls playing a wide range of things. None of which I enjoyed, they were all girly things like volley ball and tennis. I sighed and made my way to the gym Instructor, he as busy blowing his whistle at the girls playing tennis. I tapped on his shoulder mid blow and he swung round.
"Oh you must be the new girl. Katsuko?" He asked, I nodded. "Well, Um" He shifted getting a bit uneasy. "I know about your history so well I decided all of this may be to tame for your temper. So I have put you into boys Gym." I stared at him my mouth just hanging open; I must have looked like a fish. He just smiled at me he pointed the way to the girls changing rooms and where the boys have gym. He gave me the gym kit and pushed me in the direction of the changing rooms.
Well great my first day back and I'm already being singled out. I jogged up the stairs to the changing rooms and looked at the kit, a white top with black shorts. Oh great so they have a pervert designing the uniforms now do they? I slipped the top on but it was shorter than I imagined, it barely passed over my breasts, it hung about the same length as my school shirt. I put the shorts on which reviled a fair amount of thigh. Oh well fantastic starting gym in the boys class and I looked like a skank! I grabbed some trainers and rammed them onto my feet with pure rage.
I slowed my pace as I came to the stairs and walked behind the other side of the giant curtain. I saw all the boys on mats doing martial arts. I turned to escape when I heard a shouting voice.
"No I don't think you're going anywhere missy!" I spun round to see the source of the voice while I plasters and evil smirk on my face. Then I saw the voice's source. A huge bald man, he seemed to be the sensei.
"Free style martial arts. Katsuko pick a partner. Tatsuya is good partner, he has the skill level of a girl." I was fuming with rage I turned to see the boys fighting and a few grouped together chatting. One was a short boy blonde and he looked really young. Yikes is he old enough to go here. Beside the young boy was a giant, he was seriously tall, he had black hair and he looked extremely tough.
I tapped the sensei and pointed to the huge guy. The sensei chuckled I gave him a death glare; trust me the phrase if looks could kill! He stopped laughing and motioned for the big guy to come here.
"Mori this is Katsuko. She's new here; she wishes to have you as her fighting partner for today." He nodded then made a sound which sounded like "Ah" I smirked as 'Mori' lead me to a mat.
"I won't go soft on you if you won't" I told him he chuckled and nodded. We bowed and then he made a lung for my arm, I ducked and kicked him in the stomach he made a kind of "bleugh" sound. I rolled from under his stance and looked him in the eye. The whole class had gone quiet I slipped under 'Mori' and turned to see the whole class staring at us.
I felt a whoosh of air as Mori made another lunge for me, I rolled under his legs and grappled his back, and he felt around for my arm, found it and flipped me over using my sharp reflexes I landed on my legs. I had no chance of doing it to this huge guy so I pushed him back making him stumble, I lunged onto the floor and put my leg slightly away from where he was stumbling this made him fall to the floor with a huge thump. I heard girls squeal and a few came round the curtain. To see a small blonde girl standing by a guy (just defeated) on the floor. I picked up something that looked like an elastic band and tied my hair up with it and I walked over to the sensei.
He was nodding in approval. "Now will you tell me what the joke was?" I asked him, he shook his head and I exited the Gym. I ran up the stairs and changed into mu uniform. I needed peace. I searched the school for awhile then I heard the bell ring. Break, I sighed nowhere would be peaceful. I crept up some more steps onto a music floor. Hoping to find a violin.
Ok yes shock horror I play violin, it helps me calm down. I may be grade 8 but it is not a talent of mine. I can't play that well, it just helps me unwind. I scavenged around music room one and two and found nothing. I walked up to the huge double doors of music room three and sighed pulling the heavy doors open and gasping. A huge white light surrounded me then rose petals flew in my face.
"What the fudge?" I mumbled, that's not exactly what I said but you get the idea. I blinked through the light and heard some voiced call out. "Welcome princess" I held back a laugh which was dying to get out. I saw seven, wait I looked harder, six guys and a girl dressed like a boy. Then I realised It as Haruhi, we were friends a few years ago but then I broke her arm (tough Chinese burn) and she disowned me. She seemed to remember me. Then a blonde dewy eyed tall dude called out.
"Daughter is there something you aren't telling me?"He whined this and sprang on Haruhi. I chuckled how she could get mixed up with these guys. Well to be honest how did she get caught up with me? Then I took in my surroundings. There was a cold looking guy with glasses staring coldly at me. There were two ginger twins who were fox like with golden eyes. Then I saw Mori, I falterd feeling slightly guilty for burning him so bad in front of the guys. On his shoulders was the little young blonde guy. He stared at me in a cold manor as did the little boy.
"Did I miss something" I called out to the boys, Then the twins rushed to my side and tried to drag me over to a couch. As soon as they latched onto my elbows I mustered up all my strength and elbowed them. They whined and backed off.
"Okay what was the deal with that?" I called out to them. "We need to speak to you. Is it true that you defeated Mori in martial arts?" I Chuckled hard, word gets around quickly, and with these cute guys maybe life here wouldn't be so bad.
