*Casually sits down sipping tea* Why hello there. Long time no see eh?

I'M SO SORRY I HAVN'T UPDATED IN LIKE A MONTH! PLEASE FORGIVE ME!

I honestly feel so bad right now guys. Spare me of harsh words, cuz tomorrow I have 3 ½ hours of freaking algebra! I mean why can't I just go to the library or something?

Enough about my sad algebra story!

Bmg20- thank you for the positive feedback! Glad you like it

Killjarkidranger- (did I spell that right?) Yay! Thanks!

Hetaliafan98- You are indeed correct. That was a Justice League reference!

Thanks for sticking with me through my severe Writer's Block.

You're all going to hate me more, but this chapter is really short and a bit of a filler chapter. *takes cover from angered people* I swear, the next chapter will be much longer and have more events!

I decided against eating in the refectory today. Instead I made the decision to look around the grounds of the school.

I wandered around outside, admiring the gardens and cherry trees in bloom. A cool breeze went by, causing my skin to chill.

I eventually found myself in an enormous rose maze. I wandered around in the maze for a while, getting a small feeling of magic from the tall rose bushes.

I wasn't sure how long I had been wandering around in the roses, but it felt like quite some time. I pulled my phone from my bag, checking the time. I still had at least 40 minutes left till next period, and I still needed to eat my lunch.

I spotted a small white gazebo covered in ivy down the path. I sat on the small bench in the gazebo, taking my bento from my bag. I opened the lid off, picking up my chopsticks. Amaya had my chefs make me onigiri this morning along with Haupia, a traditional Hawaiian pudding my mom would sometimes make for us.

I guess I can't complain, but I do prefer the way mom cooked Haupia.

I finished eating in little time, and I decided to enjoy the fresh air just a little longer. I pulled out my MP3 and popped on my Jack Skellington headphones that Nani got for me.

My favorite song was playing; High School Never Ends, by Bowling for soup.

Whenever Nani heard this song, she would sing along in agony with how absolutely true it was. All the world does care about is who looks the best and who's with who. Sad, isn't it?

Anyways, as the song continued I took out my sketchbook and pens. Looking at my surroundings, I started drawing a girl in a puffy blue dress walking through a bizarre world of roses.

Ah, looks like my childhood got the best of me. Alice was one of my many favorite characters from when I was a kid. I loved reading through the books, and watching the movies. Oh the nostalgia.

I pulled out my phone again. Still 30 minutes to kill, and my hand was starting to get tight from gripping the pens. Packing up my bento and sketch book, and left the gazebo, going back down the path I was walking on before.

I wounded up at a dead end.

Great. Now I really feel like Alice.

I turned down another path a few feet back, going further into the rose maze. It seemed I was getting closer to the center rather than the exit.

I went to turn around and go back but I found myself at a dead end. I looked around trying to find some sort of path out. None except the one I was currently on. Maybe I could look over the walls. But there was no such luck.

The walls of the shrubbery were at least 7 feet.

And I was hopelessly lost.

Oh well. At least the blooming roses were beautiful.

I was more used to plumerias and hibiscuses, due to the fact that my dad owned a ton of tropical flower gardens worldwide.

I wonder what a rose lei would look like. Hmm….

My thoughts were interrupted by girl-ish giggling form the other side of the rose wall. Either the end of the maze was getting near, or there were other people in the maze as well as myself.

I quickened my pace, a sudden bit of hope finding me.

Well, I found an exit.

But I also found something else.

Dun Dun DUUUUHHHHNNNN! Ah please don't kill me for the cliff hanger.

Or the slow update.

Or the shortness of this chapter.

Or the fact that this chapter was a bit of a filler.

Anyways, I again apologize for the extremely slooooooooooooow update. Bad writer's block.

Please review, as I promise that if you do it will take a much shorter time for me to update!

Biiiiiieeeeeyyyeeeeeeeeeeee!

(anyone get that reference?)
