The Veil of Light

Chapter One: Some place new

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I looked around at my new school and picked up all the details in a glance. There were trees surrounded by lazing students. The building complex was HUGE, and centered around a plaza where it seemed the older kids were congregated. All the students in the plaza were looking at the people outside their courtyard with hostility as if we had barged in on a private dinner party just by existing.

"This seems like a very friendly place. Don't you think?" I muttered sarcastically to my newly made friend' "I can't wait to get to know everyone and then we can become great bosom friends." I continued in a falsely cheerful voice.

"Tell me Kelly are you always this cheerful or is it just because you're adapting to a new place?" Jacky, my new friend asked, clearly amused with my observation of Jacksonville High School, my own personal hell!

I suppose I should I should have been grateful that I had found a neighbor my own age that understood my own unique sense of humor. I realize now I should have been thankful for lots of thing, but you can't change the past.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

When I got home from school that day I went into my room and buried myself in my favorite series "The Realm of the Gods". I had already read it a million times, but you know good books, they never get old

I finished the last book in a matter of minutes, because I had almost finished it to begin with. I then started on Tamora Pierces newest book "Trickster's Choice". I was very excited about this new book.

I was engrossed in this story of a young heroin that became enslaved by pirates, sold to a kind highborn family and charged with their safety by a trickster god. Aly daughter of George Cooper and the Lioness was put through many trials in order to win a wager with a god.

I was just about to finish the book with a heart to heart conversation with her father who had found his now free daughter in the Copper Isle, when I happened to look at the clock. It read 2:00 am. "That can't be right." I whispered. "I'm not at all tired."

"It's a good thing I don't have school tomorrow", I said to myself. "Cause I wouldn't be able to stay awake in class!" I whispered as I turned of the light and went to sleep.
