Tara faced the boy in front of her. The boy, Eric just glared and smiled. He was always making fun of her and Tara could handle that, but this time he had gone to far. Tara looked down at her destroyed art project. She had worked hours and hours on it and Eric had snatched it out of her hands and thrown it onto the ground. And he did not even seem to care, that her hard work had gone to waist.

Eric smirked and started to laugh. Tara charged at him, her fists flying. She hit him in the jaw and kneaded him in the groan. Eric cried out and bent over. Tara stood back and let him suffer. At the moment she really did not care what became of her. Eric got up and grabbed her. He flung her into one of the desks, Tara hitting her head on the corner of one. Tara let out a scream, as she felt sticky blood fall from her head. She would need stitches. But at the moment Tara did not care about that. She ran once more at Eric and grabbed his arm. She pulled it back and she felt it crack.

Eric yelled out, and at that same moment a teacher ran up to them. It was Mr. Kaht. He looked angry. But at the moment he had to take care of these two students. He knew that Tara would ultimately be expelled for starting the fight, and that eric would be suspended, but that did not matter at the moment. He ran to the phone and dialed 911. at the same time Tara passed out.

Tara woke up. Her head hurt and she felt groggy. She reached up and put a hand to where she had been hurt. She felt the stitches and was grateful that she had not been awake for the surgery. She heard something crying beside her. Tara looked over and saw her mother, crying. "What is wrong?" she asked her. Her mother stopped crying for a moment and said, "well for one you were expelled. And you were hurt." Then she broke down into tears again.

Tara felt bad and apologized, "I am sorry mom, I was really angry. I did not mean to get expelled, or to get into a fight. I guess I was just not thinking." She said. Her mother looked up. "That does not excuse it!" she said. "But that is not the only reason why I am upset." Tara sat her self up a wave of dizziness came over her. "What is it?" she asked her.

"Well, one of my fathers old friends just called me. He needs my help because he is very sick and needs someone to take care of him. So I told him I would. So we are moving." Her mother said. Tara was astonished. "Moving!" she said. "Where?"

Her mom sighed. "Ireland" she said. "Ireland?" Tara repeated. "Why Ireland?" she asked. One again her mother sighed. "Well I used to live for a bit in Ireland." She said. Tara stopped. "Were you born there too?" she asked. Her mother nodded. Tara was furious. "Why did you never tell me this?! Why did you lie to me and tell me that you had been born in Nashville Tennessee?" she screamed.

A nurse popped her head into the door. "Please be quite." She said. Tara fell back on the bed, hot with rage.
