A/N: Remember to Read and Review. I accept constructive criticism but please no flames. I do not own TMNT. I used some lyrics from a Superchick song called "Me Against the World."
Me Against The World
Angel spat out the blood which was quickly forming within her mouth as she glared at the bullies' backs as they ran away to their homes where nobody likes the new girl with pink hair. Where nobody trusts the new girl. Where anyone could care less about a girl named Angel who had moved here no less than a month ago.
Angel remained sprawled on the ground for a few moments to lick her wounds before leaning on a wall heavily for support as she stood up on shaky legs. The just-turned-fifteen year old sighed as she grabbed her black and white checkered messenger bag and slung it over her left shoulder and then her left hand quickly shot out to grasp at her right side.
'Don't know why I try anymore. I don't do anything to deserve the lashings get from these people. My stupid vow to not to fight has put me in more trouble than it's worth.' Angel took slow staggering steps out of the alley that she was ambushed in on her way home from school. 'I wanna go back to New York, to the guys. That's the only place I can call home and feel like I belong unlike here in freakin' Florida. The guys down here say that I don't belong but if I don't find my old ways again then I'm gonna get seriously fucked up or worse.'
The rosette took a deep breath of sea-filled air before determination filled her eyes. It looks like this girl's going up against the world from now on. And even though no one understands, she's gonna make a one girl stand.
How could anyone understand when all she can give them are half-truths? When she can't even tell anyone how she had to leave her crush? A crush that she was planning on admitting to soon but now she can't. One, the rosette lost his number. Two, long-distance relationships never work. Three, how could her Gramma, let alone her brother who was older than her by six years, approve of her crush if they couldn't even know about him?
For how could anyone approve of a relationship between a teenage mutant ninja turtle who weilds nunchakus as a weapon who is also about 2 1/2 maybe three years older than her and an average, ordinary teenage girl who was trying to change herself to be better for him? How could anyone really approve of a relationship between Angel and Mikey?
