This chapter.
You all will hate me after this.
I don't care if you're the nicest person in the world, I just know you will all hate me and despise and loathe and hate with a fury Kimberlie and the twins so much. I guarantee it.
There is a song in here. It's called Now You Know by Hillary Duff.

Chapter Twenty-One
.:Satanic Bullies And Those Escaping Tears:.
"Who we gonna beat?" Coach Scorpio yelled through the microphone, muttering under his breath his signature "We Are~!"
Right now, the Fairy High Pep Rally was in high spirits, with everyone shouting and teenagers throwing around plastic beach balls and random acts of doing the wave throughout the entire event. It was inside the auditorium, which had more than enough space to hold the rowdy group of seniors and the stage was lit up like a lightbulb, while the seats was left in the dark. As for seating arrangements, the football team was in the front row and the cheerleaders were performing their cheers about crushing their rivals, which were-
"The Sabers!" the crowd shouted, grinning and similar determined faces reflected in the crowd. Scorpio grinned once more, "And when we gonna beat them?"
"Friday!" yelled the crowd in response, one of them being Natsu. Behind the football team was the co-captain of the team; Igneel, who was on his cell phone and hungrily listening to the other person's voice. The red-haired man grinned a toothy grin and hung up. He tapped Natsu shoulder, "Good news. I just got off the phone with Toma E. Fiore. You play well on Friday, and your future is set at USC football."
Natsu looked over his shoulder and gave his dad a blank stare, "That's great, Dad."
"And who's gonna lead us to victory?" Scorpio yelled.
"Natsu!" the crowd responded.
"I can't hear you!"
"Kill the Sabers!"
"Natsu!"
Scorpio screamed in joy when the crowd went wild. As the cheerleaders finished their cheers on the stage, Scorpio clapped his hands together, "The cheerleaders have put together a skit to help get us in the spirit."
The crowd had screamed loud once they saw the cheerleaders set up on the stage, wearing their red, black and gold uniforms proudly. Kimberlie walked to the left side of the stage, from the viewpoint of the crowd, and held a white binder in her arms. When she reached the other side of the stage, she cleared her throat, "Thank you."
She opened up the binder and read, ''Once upon a time, there was a big, strong Fighting Fairy."
The crimson curtains were ruffled before Karen, dressed in Fairy High's standard football uniform, had twirled her way on the stage. In the crowd, the majority of the football team were laughing.
Kimberlie continued, "He had a beautiful girlfriend, and his dad owned the biggest meadow in all the land. But he still wasn't happy."
On the sides of the stage, some of the cheerleaders had made giant flash cards that had words like, "Awww~!" or "Everyone Laughs". The card that was held up was the "Sad Awww~!" The audience had done just that.
"If only he can find a princess, then she could kiss him, turn him into a human, and they would run away together. One night, after the scintillating fairy ditches his super-hot, senior-poll-most-popular girlfriend, he meets his princess." Kimberlie said, watching as Angel, dressed in a way-too-poofy white dress, was carried onto the stage and waving to the crowd, which were laughing at the comical sight.
"Your highness." Karen said in a deep voice, bowing down to her sister. Angel grinned, lifting her dress and bowed as well, flashing her behind to the mob in their seats. The guys grinned mischievously.
Kimberlie smiled a sickening sweet grin to the crowd, "Alas, it turned out that our fairy not only had a secret identity, but also had a secret e-mail relationship with a pen pal named Princeton Girl."
Towards the back of the auditorium sat Lucy and Jellal, who watched the play from afar. Noticing the similarities and signs, Lucy's face paled and she fidgeted in her seat, already uncomfortable and knowing that no one else had the name "Princeton Girl" as their email address. "This isn't good." Jellal muttered, sitting right next to her.
The cheerleaders on the stage had split the stage into two; one for Karen and the other for Angel. Handing a cell phone to Karen, Minerva walked to the other side of the stage, giving the other cell phone to Angel.
Karen spoke and pretended to text on the phone, "Dear Princeton Girl, I can't wait till we finally get to meet. You're the only one who understands the real me. The man who doesn't want to play USC football. But who wants to be at Princeton, with you."
Natsu noticed the situation turn right around for him. He slouched in his seat and his hands started to sweat of perspiration. Nervousness poured out of the pinkette's pores. Igneel saw his son's distress and tapped on his shoulder, "What are they talking about?"
Natsu jumped and looked to his dad. "Nothing." he muttered and turned around in his seat.
"Dear Nomad, I want you to know who I am, but I'm scared! I'm scared that you'll reject me. And I've never had a real kiss before." Angel screeched, cupping her hands and whispering the last sentence to the array of students, which went crazy with laughs.
Lucy's heart sunk deep within her and her eyes started to water, "I can't believe they're reading my e-mails." Jellal looked at her and softly muttered, "Let's go."
Kimberlie maliciously grinned and looked into the mass of seniors, looking for a certain blonde and pink-haired teen. Once she spotted the horrified looks from both parties, Kimberlie beamed with repugnant smugness, "But our princess had a secret too. She wasn't royalty at all, but a geek, a loser, a servant girl." Kimberlie smirked even further when she saw Lucy slide in her seat, her complexion as pale as white, fluffy clouds.
Igneel held Natsu's shoulder in a firm grasp and leaned towards his son's ear, "Any ideas about this?" Natsu looked forward, giving a hard glare to his ex.
With one last and final testimony, Kimberlie stared into Lucy's eyes with a hateful declaration. The cheerleader smirked, All's fair in love and war.
She spoke again, silencing the seniors.
"And who, may you ask, is this imposter? Give it up for the pretend princess, diner girl, Lucy Heartfilia!"
The stage light went black, covering the entire room in complete darkness. Then, a lone spotlight held on one place in the entire room; where Lucy sat with a mortified look and everyone staring her way.
The entire room was silenced until they were filled with accusations, like-
"Ohhhhh!" the guys screamed, laughing at the poor Heartfilia.
"That blonde bitch?!" a couple of Natsu's fangirls yelled out.
"She's such a whore!"
"No one wants you!"
"Go die!"
Lucy sat in her seat, frozen. Her limbs wouldn't move, her voice wouldn't speak up and her shoulders shook. Her brown orbs were wide open, staring at her feet and the irises in her eyes were darkening. She jumped once someone touched her shoulder and looked to that direction.
Jellal was shaking her, worried beyond no belief for his childhood friend. He was yelling something at her, but the blonde couldn't hear him from the screams the crowd was emitting. Lucy blinked, slowly ripping away from her dazed reverie. She looked up, seeing many angered and laughing faces looking at her, chanting the same line over and over.
"Diner girl!"
"Diner girl!"
"Diner girl!"
"Diner girl!"
Something triggered inside the blonde; something that broke the dam that she had held in for eight years and counting. She started to cry silent tears, holding her hands to her mouth and watching all the faces cave near her.
Lucy stood up shakily, feeling Jellal's arms help her up from her seat. Glancing towards the stage, she saw her sisters chant over and over "Diner Girl" while pointing their pointer fingers at her and smiling. Looking away from the twins, Lucy saw Kimberlie smirk and cross her arms, cocking out her hip to the side.
Not wanting to stare in the satanic eyes of Kimberlie Adams, Lucy looked downwards.
Big mistake.
Immediately when she looked downwards, she caught the eyes she had never wanted to see in her current state; Natsu Dragneel.
The pinkette had always wanted to know who his princess was from the minute he started talking to her at the dance. But not like this, he thought, resisting the urge to get up and hug the blonde that was crestfallen. His eyes widened and Natsu's' pupils dilated tenfold once he saw Lucy look to him with silver tears that cascaded down her pink cheeks.
Mortified and despondent, Lucy couldn't take the pleading and helpless look from Natsu. She closed her eyes and ran.
Ran away from the laughs.
In these eyes, more than words, more than
Anything that I've spoken
Ran away from the looks.
Ran away from Kimberlie.
As the skies, turn to gray my heart's
Just about to crack open
Ran away from her devil twin sisters.
Ran away from the catcalls, mocking laughs and suffocating glares.
So the story goes
There's something you should know
Before I walk away and I blow the ending
And most importantly, Natsu.
I never wanna be without you
Oh no, here I go now you know
What I feel about you
There's no runnin'
Running to the nearest exit, Lucy threw her arms against the double doors and pushed her way through the drowning noise, ignoring Jellal when he yelled out a loud, "Come on!"
I must have been wrong to doubt you
Oh no there I go, no control
Natsu watched Lucy run away farther from him. Neglecting Gajeel's laughs, Gray's grinning smile and his father's cry, Natsu turned in his seat and glared a murderous glare to his ex, who stood proud and tall at her work. Kimberlie blinked innocently at Natsu and mouthed out six words to him.
"All's fair in love and war."
And I'm fallin'
So now you know
All of you are totally hating me with a passion right now, aren't you? Yeah I thought so.
I'm afraid to ask, but please review? *gives a shaky smile* I'd love to know what you truly think of Kimberlie and the twins.
This should be good.
Ja, ne?
