"Class! Today we have a new student. Come on in." Everyone in the classroom looked to the front as the door slid open with a bang. A girl with a short black scene hair stepped in. She wore the school's male uniform. No one said a word as the girl stopped next to the teacher and turned to face the students. Her eyes were two different colors, the left one was a pale blue and the right a light brown.

"Everyone, this is Vesperia." The teacher smiled as the new student bowed to them.

"You can sit in front of Kyra, she's by the window."

The sound of a chair sliding across the tile floor echoed within the room. Vesperia shot her gaze to the red headed girl with ruby red eyes and pale-ish skin. She wore a big bright smile on her face. 'I hate her already.' Vesperia mentally groaned as she went to sit down. The class dragged on while she looked out the window bored. 'What should I make for dinner tonight?' The lunch bell rang surprising Vesperia out of her thoughts. Slowly she stood from her seat grabbing her stuff. As she walked out of the classroom with her bag over her shoulder, the red head followed her out.

"Hey!" She called out only to get ignored by the dark haired girl. Kyra pouted and sped up only stopping the student by standing in front of her. "I'm Kyra. Be my friend." She smiled brightly. Vesperia frowned at her and begun to walk around the shorter girl.

"No." Was her reply and headed down stairs. The red head huffed before following the girl once again. The darker haired girl turned back catching Kyra and scowled. 'Fuck! Why is this girl following me?'

"You're my friend now you can't just leave me!" the red head yelled grabbing Vesperia's hand.

"I'm not your friend! Leave me alone!" With a growl Vesperia pulled her hand out of the girl's grip and took off running. As she rounded the corner she crashed into something hard.

"Ow, fuck that hurt! What the fuck was that? Did I just run into a wall?" Vesperia grumbled holding her head with her hand. A deep chuckle sounded from above her and she shook her noggin to rid it of the pain.

"Thank you. Next time watch where you're going you stupid bitch." A gruff voice spoke and her eyes shot up meeting a muscled chest under a white button down shirt, it had the school's logo on it. It looked as if it would rip from the seams at any moment. Vesperia's eyebrow twitch at being called stupid.

"Who the fuck do you think you are calling me stupid!? It's not my fault people won't leave me the fuck alone." She hissed, meeting the person's amber eyes. Her mind went blank and her body froze. 'What beautiful eyes.' The man before her had vibrant red spiky hair with a pair of goggles sitting at his hairline. Before she could move away he slammed her against the wall, pinning her to the brick. Vesperia grunted at the impact as her ears picked up a faint laughing between the audible gasps from the students watching. He glared at the girl as she scowled at his hands on her shoulders.

"How dare you fucking talk to me like that?!" He growled "Don't you know who I am?"

"No and personally I don't care. Now, I'd appreciate it if you'd let me the fuck go." Vesperia snarled at him.

"I'm Eustass 'Captain' Kidd." Kidd spat tightening his grip on her arm. The girl hissed glaring at him even more.

"I don't know who the fuck that is and I don't give a fuck! Now let me go before I feel like hitting you and breaking something." The other redhead stepped up behind Kidd and kicked his knees dropping him to the floor.

"Leave my friend alone." She growled grabbing the dark haired girl by the wrist.

"Come on let's go." The two girls begun to run, leaving Kidd behind simmering in anger. Vesperia looked at the shorter girl as she dragged her away. She was confused and somewhat pissed.

"Okay enough!" She yelled yanking her hand away yet again. 'Damn this chick is annoying.' The two stood panting in a hallway. "What part of leave me alone don't you understand." Vesperia hissed glaring sharply at the girl. Kyra laughed and shrugged her shoulders.

"Stay away from Kidd. He's dangerous and strong."

"Oh? He's strong?" Vesperia raised her brow. Kyra shook her head at the girl and met her gaze.

"Don't." She said going to grab her wrist. "Come with me." The dark haired girl shook her head and stepped back away from the girl.

"No, I'm going to go find a place to be alone. Don't fucking follow me. Just leave me the fuck alone." With that Vesperia spun on her heel and walked away. She didn't see the girl frown and turn away with her head down. 'Why can't she just let me be? I don't want friends.' The black haired girl thought as she walked up the stairs leading to the roof. 'I'm skipping the rest of my classes. I really don't want to deal with her right now much less the other students.' Vesperia climbed up the ladder leading to above the door on the roof. She sighed and laid down on the concrete quickly falling asleep.

Kidd kicked open the door to the top area with his lunch in hand. His crew walked out behind him. The group ate their food before talking. One of the members stood and looked around the roof. He wore a mask over his face and his long blonde hair was spiked a bit here and there.

"It feels different." He spoke looking to the area above the door. The others grew quiet and watched as he walked to the ladder. Once up, he chuckled at the sight of the sleeping dark haired girl from before. "Hey Kidd you're gonna wanna see this." Kidd stood from his spot as the masked guy moved from the ladder. The red haired man climbed up and his eyes widened at the sleeping girl. He smirked and moved closer to her. Vesperia suddenly woke up with a start as she shot into a sitting position. Their heads collided and the girl fell back against ground holding her head again.

"Fuck! What is with me and running into walls?" She growled "That felt like fucking metal." She opened her eyes only to jump back. 'Shit why is he here!? I thought I'd be alone yet this ass decided to show up and ruin it.' All Vesperia wanted was to be alone.

"You know if wanted to hang out with me you could have just said so." Vesperia looked up at the man speaking only to see the cockiest smirk she had ever seen. The girl opened her mouth to retort but soon closed it remembering what the other girl said.

"Yes, I just couldn't help but want to see you're oh so handsome face." She said voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Oh really?" Kidd asked confused.

"Yeah, just let me get down from here." Vesperia rolled off the edge and landed on Killer feet first.

"Uhf!"

"Thanks for breaking my fall masked girlie man!" The girl rushed to the door and threw it open taking two steps at a time. Vesperia left the main gates and headed for a nearby park.

_POV Change (Kyra)_

Ruby eyes watched as the black haired girl left the school. 'I wonder why she left so early. She also skipped class.' Kyra frowned before finishing up with the notes for the last class. She wasn't able to befriend the new girl but if Vesperia didn't have the notes for the classes she missed then she'd fail. 'I don't want her to fail because of me.' The last bell rang as the kids rushed out of the classroom.

_POV Change (Vesperia)_

The sun began to set as Vesperia walked through the park to her house. She hoped her dad would be late so she had time to make dinner before he got home from work. However, her heart sank upon seeing his car in the driveway of the two story house. Taking a deep breath she opened the front door and stepped in.

"I'm home." She mumbled walking passed the living room where her dad sat drinking what looked like his fourth beer. He didn't even acknowledge her as she made her way up to the cold room that is her own. Not bothering to change this turned out to be the worst day so far but there's still a chance it'll get better. At least she hoped so. Vesperia crawled under the covers on her mattress and fell fast asleep. Sometime during the night her dad walked into the room. Her eyes shot open and the girl quickly sat up from her bed as his hand closed in on her.
