Chapter 2

Masicido woke up really early the next morning. She beat the sun to being up and she had her uniform on her bag packed and brought tape to keep her papers in her binders. She even had time to unpack old boxes that were stashed into the basement. She was new in town but she had already adjusted to her lifestyle. She only needed friends to call it home. Sure she met Kiba and Hana but to her they were acquaintances. Yesterday she didn't see anyone at the bus stop, she only heard laughing. Today she wanted to try to make a friend. When she got to her high school bus stop, she saw the Inuzuka siblings, and one other kid was there. Masicido went over to talk to her but as soon as she turned over to her, she scowled angrily at her. Masicido said "hi" and got a scowl in return. That officially told her that she was unfriendly. Instead she talked to Kiba and Hana again. They laughed at the random jokes that they said to pastime- no matter how bad.

The bus came way too soon. Kiba sat with someone else leaving Masicido to sit with Hana.

"Hi Hana" Masicido said

"………."Hana said.

"Um……Okay" Masicido replied.

Neither of them said anything until they got to school. Masicido was surprised to see that Kiba was in al of her classes. She was not a klutz as much as she was one yesterday. She was blushing a lot though. She wasn't blushing at Kiba though, she was blushing at the teachers that she had made herself a fool of. She was not even late for a single class. She was trying to talk to other people but by eighth period, she only talked to three other people, most unfriendly but a blond girl named Ana Smith, was fairly friendly. She was not in any of her classes, except gym. Their conversation ended up like this:

"So you are Masicido Orakai, I'm Ino Yamanaka" Ino said.

"Um yeah hi…….but how did you-." Masicido was stopped short by Ino.

"I overheard the Inuzukas talking about you." Ino said.

She nodded quickly. Ino wasn't planning on giving her any time to talk. Masicido did not enjoy talking to Ino but she thought that may be a nice person one you got to know her. And she knew that it was impolite to walk away from a conversation.

"So do you like art?" Ino asked.

For once she didn't mind talking. "Well yeah, I guess." She continued, "But Mr. Hayes is a little strict."

This made Ino a scowl. Masicido didn't understand why Ana got frustrated. Ino loved art. She didn't like it when people disliked her favorite teacher.

Masicido shrugged off Ino and headed toward the locker room at the end of class. When she got home her microwave broke. She was on her way to the store when she saw Kiba and Hana were playing in their front yard. Kiba ran over to her. "Hi Kiba" She said.

"Hi Masicido, What's up?" Kiba asked.

"I am just picking up a new microwave. Mine broke and I am not too good with the oven." Masicido explained.

"You're not going to be able to carry that all of the way home." Kiba said.

"I guess not." Masicido replied.

"If you want I can help you get it home." Kiba offered.

"Yeah, that would be great." She said. She wondered how they would get it back to her house.

Kiba ran inside and back outside with a woman and a bike. "Hi you must be Masicido. Kiba told me all about you." The woman said. She looked like Hana with her spiky bangs and messy ponytail. The only difference was that she was more tired and calm. She was holding a white dog and a full grown wolf husky walked beside her.

"Hi and I am. You must be Mrs.Inuzuka." Masicido said.

"Yes but call me Tsume like everyone else." Tsume said to Masicido. She then turned to Kiba and they talked for a bit before Tsume left.
