CHAPTER 4

Blaize had finished packing her bag when Sean knocked on the door. She opened it and looked at him solemnly.

"I'm ready."

"Unpack ye're things, ye can stay with us. We don' like people like that any more than you do, we just have slightly better ways of handling them."

Blaize allowed her lips to curve slightly. "Thanks."

Sean smiled and left her to unpack again.

* * * *

It took a couple of weeks for Blaize to settle in properly at the Academy, but soon she was feeling at home.

She woke up one morning with the feeling that something was different.not wrong, just different. She quickly dressed herself and made her way down the stairs to grab some breakfast. On the way down she noticed that some of the closed doors were now partially open.

Accustomed to seeing only Sean and Emma, Blaize was shocked when she pushed the door to the dining room open and saw the table filled with teenagers. Sean was standing to one side talking to a girl with long blond hair, when he noticed Blaize he walked over to her with a huge smile plastered onto his face.

"Blaize, darlin', we thought you'd slept in." He reached out for her arm. "Come on in, these are the other students that live here."

Blaize followed him into the room as conversations were stopped and everyone looked at her.

Sean pretended not to notice the tension that suddenly filled the room and ploughed straight on.

"This is Blaize, she's a new student." He looked around at the students sat around the table. "Well, I guess introductions are in order."

He looked at Blaize and felt a pang of sympathy for the young girl she had only just started to get used to living in the school.

"Blaize, these are the rest of the students that live here.this is Jubilee," he indicated to a dark-haired girl sitting nearest the door. He then pointed to each of the students in turn. "And these are Paige, Kurt, Arley, Everett, Angelo, Leech, Artie Maddock, Penance and Jonathon."

Blaize looked around the room and quickly realized the situation. Most of the students were looking at her, their feelings perfectly clear.

Suddenly a blond stood up, Sean had introduced her as Paige.

"On behalf of everyone here ah want to welcome you tah our school," her smile was warm with friendship. "I hope you'll be happy with us.

Blaize lifted the corners of her mouth into what she hoped was a sort-of friendly smile and hoped that her life wasn't about to become too complicated.

The End.

Author's Note - I know I hinted that Blaize's secret would be revealed but.well the story finished before I realized and umm.I do kinda have a sequel in the works but it's taking a tad longer than expected. Mainly because I'm currently working on Life isn't always roses, and that's taking up a lot of my time.

Anyhoo, thanks in advance for reviews I'm sure that at least one person will review.I hope someone will.*breaks down in small sobbing fit*.please someone review my story?!?
