Continuation from where the last chapter left off from…

Mr. Bat had one of the other students who I didn't know the name of yet go grab him a beer while the rest of us just continued to chat.

"So Ashley I've never seen you around the district before," Zeo questioned. "Where're you from horned girl"?

"I'm from a small foggy island in the middle of the Grand Line". I said. "My father and I live there until he made me come here to learn".

"Oi who is your father Ash"? Daruma asked.

I smirked, "Baka didn't you hear what my last name was? Well either way I'm the daughter a Lord Shichibukai Gecko Moria".

"Intriguing family Ashlethen". Hordy grunted. "Really now I must ask why you're really down here".

I leaned towards Hordy and whispered into his ear, "None of your fucking business". Then I leaned back in my seat glared at him for asking that same question again since I already said the damn answer. All he did was just shrugged off the curse, lean back in own seat, and pulled his hat over his head.

When the student got back with the beer Mr. Bat called me up to the front of the classroom in a slurred voice.

"Who are you since I've never seen you before in my life"? He asked.

"Ashlethen Moria is my name". I said leaving my middle names out of this.

"Well Ashley it's an honor to have a child of a Warlord here". Mr. Bat said with slur. "Although don't be expecting an special treatment".

Really I only glared at the half drunk teacher before me since I obviously knew that stupid fucking fact. He then pointed for me to return to my seat and I cursed underneath my breath as I sat back down.

"Now you may all be thinking I'm not going to be teaching anything because I'm drunk right now". Mr. Bat said. "Wrong! Listen get to work on reading the first chapter in your textbooks that are right next to the door"!

I slowly raised my hand and it caught his eye.

"Yes you Ashes what is it"? He asked.

"Um yeah I have no clue about where you guys are with the whole history thing so..." I said.

The teacher smirked and pointed to the only girl in the class. He then shouted, "You, Teary, help this new student out"!

The girl moved her desk beside my own on my left. She had black long hair, dark blue eyes, and sharp teeth like myself.

"Well like Mr. Bat said I'm Teary, Teary Nightingale". She said. "I'm a Vandellia Cirrhosa Fishman, and you are Ashley but what are you"?

I smirked, "I'm Great White Shark Fishman".

Hordy turned my head back to face him again and I saw his blood red eyes had lit up. "Really Ashlethen well so am I. Funny isn't it"? I heard what he said but when he released my chin from his grip I was still a bit lost in his eyes.

Teary tapped me on the shoulder a few times before I finally returned to my senses. When I looked back at the girl she was only smirking at something else and looked at me before I could see what caught her interest.

"So do you know anything about our past history"? She questioned.

"Only some parts here and there". I sighed a bit embarrassed.

"No problem just start with page one in the book and you'll understand". Teary grinned.

She went back to her own reading and I opened a dusty looking book to the page that she told me to turn to and I found nothing but a picture. The picture had enormous fish swimming around in a huge circle with a small number of Fishmen and Merfolk looking at them.

"Sea Kings outlining where the island should be built". I whispered.

As I continued to read I found that the beast were summoned by the ocean to help our kind out in their time of need. That time of need was when our kind vanished into the ocean to escape the human's wrath from the surface above. We were being hunted like animal for the human's infatuation for eye candy. The beauty of mermaids and strong appearance of mermen were especially caught by the human's eyes. When it came to the Fishmen though the humans still saw us as eye candy but they mostly just saw us as animals in a crude hunting game of theirs. Our ancestors were caged, killed, beaten, and driven into the sea by these humans.

"Alright class get the hell out of here and come back tomorrow"! Mr. Bat yelled.

Teary helped me with my things as I was getting through the last sentences of the first chapter.

"Dammit I don't know what to feel right now"! I raged. "Anger, sorrow, or murderous are my three top choices so far"!

"Don't let the humans get to you Ash," Teary tried to calm me. "If you allow that to happen then your rage will get the better of you. Like those boys over there".

She pointed to the five guys I was talking to earlier and sighed before she continued.

"Those boys go around the district trying to find humans to kill". She explained. "I don't know why though but those creatures must've done something traumatizing in order for those guys to be obsessed with their death. Zeo is the only one you can have a logical conversation with though".

Teary looked back over to the boys and found Zeo leaning up against the wall with his hand dug inside his pockets. He was wearing no shirt and his small number of abs were showing.

"Holy hell you like him". I smirked.

"Yeah well shut up about it and I'll help you to your dorm". Teary hissed.

"Awesome I get a dorm room". I thought. "This school may look like shit but at least it has its ups. Its people especially". My eyes trailed back to the five guys as I walked out the door following behind Teary.

The girl showed me to the room right next to hers saying it was empty and free to use. There weren't a lot of rooms on the hallway either and I didn't think that this one side was just for girls either, but hell what did I care I was an it.

As I opened the door up I saw the room was clean and had its own bathroom inside of it. "Sweet a waterbed". I smirked looking upon the swishing bed.

After setting my stuff down I turned back to Teary who was about to head out the door.

"Oi I have a quick question"! I said.

"Shoot".

"How come most people don't come here"? I questioned.

She sighed, "Most people only come here to become nobles, traveling merchants, and well that's pretty much it to it. Oh and our next class starts in about an hour so don't be late Ash". With the wave of her hand she closed my door and I jumped onto the waterbed in order to relieve a bit of strain from my back.

"Dammit I can't take those hard wooden seats". I groaned. "They're killing my spinal cord. It's a good thing I only have classes three days out of the whole week".

I stretched out on the bed and let almost everyone of my bones pop. So maybe this new lifestyle wouldn't completely suck. Well really I just hoped that it wouldn't suck at all. At least I found something to get me to stay here, new friends.

Till the next chapter my readers! You may review now!
