Okay, so here I might be overplaying the whole 'kerr' thing, but seriously, I don't care, just go with it okay? Also, this chapter is split into two and I'm not too sure about the other half of it, it needs a bit oh ahh… 'surgery' because it's just a bit… 'too much' I think… so yeah… here… chapter 3A…

Disclaimer: nothing is mine… except OC's…. *sigh*

~chapter 3~

Charlotte slipped into her class seat, placing her bag on the empty seat next to her. She tucked her chair in and turned to her bag, unzipping it to get her pencil case out, other kids were in the class around her too, sitting on desks talking and laughing, whilst she sat in the middle of the room, organised and neat, waiting for her teacher. she preferred to keep out of the other kids way, some people would call her a 'goody two shoes' or something along those lines, she just preferred to do good in school, study hard and eventually she'd 'win'. She'd get a good job and be happy.

The handle on the door turned and lightning quick, every other kid in the class was in their seats, smiling up at Mrs Hooper, their psychology teacher. But Mrs Hooper didn't walk in first. A pretty girl walked in, Mrs Hooper behind her.

She had long blonde hair, it reached her waist, and there were big streaks of brown and blue running through them. She had a black fedora hat placed stylishly on the side of her head. Her high cheekbones and deep blue eyes made sure that you couldn't draw your eyes from her. Her eyes were aqua blue, and were lined in eyeliner and smoky black eye shadow. She had on a plain purple tee and wore a black leather jacket over the top, her sleeves were rolled down and she was holding them down, her jeans were skinny, dark blue and her shoes. She had on army boots, and well worn, the laces were frayed, and the paint had chipped off in some places, but they looked loved and well worn. Very well worn.

Charlotte looked around, each boy in the class' eyes were practically bugging out of their heads at her. She is very pretty charlotte thought luckily for her…

"Umm, class this is… uhh sorry I've forgotten your name!" Mrs Hooper laughed at herself she is lovely but she can be a bit socially awkward charlotte noticed.

The new girl just smiled "Alexis Kerr" she stated confidently. Someone in the class squeaked whilst others gasped near silently. Charlotte smiled. Okay, good with the confidence but…her second name, since the joker started using his second name as 'Kerr' to use as a fake name, any one with the same name were labelled for life as untrustworthy. But the fact that she had a British accent saved her. Hardly anyone from England even knew that the joker was anything more than a playing card. So she couldn't have anything to do with him.

"Oh... okay, this is Alexis Kerr everybody, say hi" Mrs Hooper's request was met with a chorus of hi's and whistles from the boy's. Charlotte raised her hand and said hi, like the good child she was. Alexis smiled back, met her eyes and raised her hand back to charlotte. Charlotte waved back. oh crap, why did I do that, now it's awkward! Alexis didn't shy away from her for breaking common courtesy though. She just smiled as if she was laughing and waved her hand back.

Someone however did notice, and thought it agreeable to punish charlotte for both breaking common courtesy and for taking Alexis' attention off him. This person was Matthew Nigma, and he was sitting behind charlotte. He punished charlotte by taking a hold of her head and pushing it forward so she nearly slammed her face into her desk, breaking her nose and ruining her books in one blow.

The entire class burst out laughing, apart from Charlotte, Mrs Hooper and Alexis who just stood there glaring at Matt.

"MATT GET OUT!" Mrs Hooper may be quiet and timid, but she liked to remind the students that she does count when she got angry or upset. The class stopped laughing and so did matt, he sighed and scraped his chair back, slinging his bag over his shoulder as he walked past, hitting his back pack into the back of charlottes head. She smirked. Definitely on purpose and Hooper noticed that too.

"Right, you and me need a word outside I think" Mrs Hooper growled at the offending youth in-front of her. Pointing to the door.

Nigma walked to Alexis to get to the door, he gave her his signature smile, the type that made every girl collapse to their knees before him in a 'take me I'm yours' kind of way. Poor girl, she doesn't stand a chance she thought, expecting Alexis' smirk to falter. Apparently so did matt, because when she just flicked her eyebrow up in a way that said 'yea, and what?' he dropped his smile "touché" he mumbled as he walked past, followed by a very angry Mrs Hooper.

Hooper paused as she opened the door beside Alexis who was still standing in front of the class, holding her jacket sleeves down over her hands. "Sorry Alexis but I need to sort him out, take a seat any where" she cheeped, smiling at Alexis, before disappearing outside the door.

As soon as the door closed the class erupted into bursts of "ohmygosh you're from England!" and "do you know the joker" and then "you know how hot you are?" accompanied by whistles and winking eyes.

Alexis hadn't even taken a step.

When she had finally taken in her surroundings (scary kids, savage, most probably cannibals…) and calmed down her heart rate (large groups of people she didn't know sent her into a panic attack) she strode confidently over to the one desk she had her eye on since she was greeted into this hell hole.

:D you CAN press the review button y'know.. It won't bite… I trained it! Also how old do you think Crane is?
