Thank you for the reviews! I was amazed that I got that many in one day. Once again, I own nothing.


Shane's POV

The only good thing about Tuesdays is the electives class. Shane chose karate to stay in shape and be able to kick ass. Plus, he thought proudly, I already know it.

He stood in defense against guy after guy, girl after girl, all of his techniques he took from games effective against each one. Until, he was tried against a small girl named Claire Danvers. What? I'm going to kill this girl! He thought surprised.

She had her hair in a Japanese style bun on the top of her head and cool blue eyes surrounded by long black thick eyelashes. Her frame was sort of small, probably up to his shoulder. But my god, her curves. She had small breasts yes, but her waist, hips, and face made up for it.

To other guys, she may be the hottest piece of tail they saw, but being the idiot he is, he prefers girls like Monica Morrell. God only knows why.

"Bow," the instructor said. Claire bowed, and Shane followed in pursuit. They got in their stances and the instructor said, "Begin."

Claire closed her eyes and let out her breath slowly and then inhaled. Shane didn't wait for her to open her eyes. He swung his leg, aiming for her weak spot behind her knees. Claire opened her eyes, and swung her right leg, knocking his leg away and pushing him off balance. He staggered a little, surprised that she could deflect his kick easily. Normally girls will be holding their foot swearing like a sailor and give up. She swung her hand and used the heel of her hand to hit his Adams apple.

His hands went up to his neck and he started coughing. Claire hit his weak spot and he fell. He stared up at her.

All she did was knock him off balance and hit his Adams apple! How did he react like that? Normally he would be able to work his way through that. No, something was wrong. Something unnatural.

"Forgive me," she said in a soft voice, "I should not have acted like that." Then, she just left.

People helped him up but he was confused to talk to them. Eve said she met a girl named Claire… No, it can't be her. Eve doesn't befriend people like her. Then again, who does Eve befriend? Exactly. Besides, he doesn't even know her name. Probably something weird like Dawn or Aqua. Something definitely white.

When he got dressed he saw his phone glow, showing he had a new message. 1 NEW MESSAGE FROM EVE

He rolled his eyes and opened it. Probably a update of the Common Grounds Gossip. "Hey dumbass, come to the coffee place to meet Claire. She won't be here long so HURRY YOUR ASS UP!" Mental face palm moment. He walked outside and was greeted by the hot blazing sun. Walking, he noticed the campus was oddly empty and quiet. He shook his head and figured Monica was giving a strip tease or something sluttish.

He opened the door and saw Eve sitting with some chick and saw him and grinned and waved over. He yawned and sat down and snatched her coffee. "Hey, that's… mine…" said a familiar voice. He looked up and spit the coffee in shock. The same chick who beat him in karate class! What the hell?

Eve looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Nice." Turning to the girl he figured was Claire, she said, "Don't worry; I'll buy you a new one later." Claire smiled a small sweet smile. "Thanks."

Shane stared at her. "You're Claire?" he asked. She nodded and fiddled with a large crystal necklace. "Sorry about earlier. I don't usually do that…" she said softly. She seems… kind of cute. He looked at her closely. "Um, so, you play pretty good. On Mortal Kombat." She looked up and met his eyes.

That made him mad. "Don't make fun of me." He said simply. She looked alarmed. "What? No no no no! I'm not- it's just that- oh I give up." She sighed and stood up. "Hey, Claire, where are you going?" Eve asked. Claire looked at her and gave her a small smile. "I feel awkward. I'm going to go." And she just left. Shane blinked.

Eve glared at him. "Oh thanks Shane, such a womanizer." Venom dripped off of her words. Shane instantly felt guilty.

"Sorry Eve."

He felt something… when Claire looks at him, but he can't figure it out. NOT LOVE. GOD NO!

"Whatever." She stood up. "I'm going back to work. Next time, be nice to Claire. She may know how to fight, but she gets scared easily. You, she definitely fears now."


Claire's POV

Claire walked briskly through the grass to the woods where she likes to study. She tugged down the uniform skirt as the wind picked up. Girls have to wear short black skirts, a black blouse with a red tie and black leggings that only go up to the thighs. Very much like how she likes to not dress like.

She climbed her favorite tree and sat down on the high branch. It was cool up here, and had a little sun, a little shade. Perfect for her. She took out her Physics book and began studying.

Claire Danvers was an odd girl, with a dark history…

That was the reason she was here.

Something "popped" up and now she was transferred here, to Morganville Academy.

But why?

Well...


Pssh, I won't tell. Part of it is next, and the rest later. Claire should get with Shane right? But how? Leave a review or message me telling me what you think should happen.

With deep respect,
