A Thousand Miles
By: -*@*- Me! -*@*-
A Unique Kind of Girl in a Normal but Strange Life (Quite long, huh?)
It was morning, 7:48 a.m. A woman was making a delicious Tuna Melt Sandwich.
"Come down, Sylvia, breakfast is ready," the woman called upstairs just before some loud footsteps.
"I'm here, auntie, I'm here," a girl replied. She had beautiful black hair unlike the people in her neighborhood. She was Japanese living in America. But she had no trouble fitting. She had bunch of friends and friendly neighbors. She ran out of her room with her large backpack. One of her shoelaces was untied.
"You should have woken up early this time. Your breakfast is getting co-" but she was cut of when Sylvia took it and quickly placed it in her mouth. She hopped down on one leg to tie her shoelaces. She quickly ran out the door.
"See you around 7! I have to go somewhere with Emily, maybe her house though!" she shouted from outside. Her auntie stood smiling after her. After a few seconds she realized something.
"Sylvia, wait! You forgot your lunch..." she sighed. She couldn't bring it to her school since her car was off too a repair shop. Then someone came.
"Well, hello Miss Williams. Young Sylvia in school already?" her next neighbor came and asked.
"Ah, yes but she had forgotten her lunch again. And I can't give it to her today since I don't have my car with me right now," she said. The man looked thoughtful.
"Hmm..." he said while holding his chin. "Maybe I should give her birthday gift earlier, in this case. Here come with me." He said pointing to his house.
!#%^%&$^#*^%(%&#%&^&#%&@^$*$#
"MS.WILLIAMS," screamed one of the few people that Sylvia did NOT want to meet. Sylvia gulped and waited for what was to come. "Please give me a good excuse for WHY YOU WERE LATE FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES?"
"Wha-" she made a noise. The teacher whom she hates most (and vise- versa) was really trying pierce her poor ears. 'Yeah right... The name Ma'am Hushmaine suits her great' she thought sarcastically. She looked up at her watch and saw that it was 8:13. 'It's only thirteen minutes! Okay, that's close to fifteen but even that is being so sensitive.' "Ma'am, er..."
"What?" she barked. Everyone else in the class were looking at her. Most of them had pity in their eyes for they knew what was coming.
"Ma'am... I, er... overslept," Sylvia said the last word quickly. At the back, a girl sighed.
"I don't believe that was a suitable excuse. Be ready for your detention at the end of the class," Ma'am Hushmaine said perfectly emphasizing the word detention.
"B-but," she stuttered. She knew what detentions meant, thanks to that careless teacher in front of her face. But the girl at the back gave her a you-deserved-it look and she had only one choice. "Yes, Ma'am Hushmaine..."
"Good, and now where were we? Ahhhh, yes! The amazing history of the foundation of America..." and the teacher started talking to herself. Sylvia walked up to the back of the classroom, ignoring the smug faces on four of the girls in the class and sat beside the girl.
"Hi, Emily," she whispered. Emily was a girl with brownish-black hair that was usually tied up either loose or in a high ponytail. In fact, she had some interest on this one boy who sat dangerously close to her everyday. Of course, only Sylvia and her other three friends knew that.
"Why do have to oversleep?" Emily asked in a dangerous tone. Sylvia sat down and whispered.
"Tell you at bre-" but Sylvia was cut off realizing something. She held her face in horror. She scribbled her problem in a piece of paper just in case the four annoying girls found out.
~~~~The Note~~~~
S: AHHHHH! I left my lunch at home! And auntie doesn't have her car today!!!!
E: What do you mean? Don't you have any food in that big backpack of yours?
S: Well, auntie always cooks the meal hot before I go! And this week, she especially bought oden!
E: Gosh you are too into it! Anyway, don't forget to come to our house today!
S: Sure! Be there!
-End-
Sylvia sighed and drifted into sleep. Social Studies (History) was her least favorite subject. And unlike most people, she was great at Math! She never got lower than two mistakes. She also loved Science. She had some talent in sports (especially Archery) and almost all the other subjects. Her only problem was this BORING class, or was it just because of the teacher?
"Sylvia, wake up," a voice called waking her up back to her senses. "Get up, she is going give you your detention now."
"Oh, how great..." Sylvia said before she gave a sigh to Emily and went to talk to Ma'am Hushy.
"Get out of there, you WIMPY WOLF!" someone angrily shouted kicking the door. But it didn't move. 'Why did I allow him to come in the first place?' he thought as he shook his head in disbelief. Then, after a few minutes of kicking, someone came stepping on the head of the one who was kicking. He jumped of holding a piece of paper.
"Ha! I got it first, dog-turd, and I'm going to find her first and make her remember all the precious moments we had together," 'wimpy-wolf' said as he ran away from the so-called 'dog-turd'.
"SHUT UP! IF YOU HADN'T BLOCKED THE ONLY ENTRANCE WITH YOUR WOLFISH FRIENDS, I COULD'VE GOTTEN IT FIRST," 'dog-turd' shouted avoiding the watchful eyes of the humans and the 'flying demons' as they escaped from the building. He felt his veins popping. 'Wimpy-wolf' was quick and if in wasn't for a cat demon stopping him, he would've escaped from the 'dog- turd'. Then, 'dog-turd' smashed onto him and tried to grab the piece of paper. But before his hand reached the paper, someone riding the cat youkai quickly snatched it away.
"So none of you two will fight...again," said a little demon kid as he scanned the paper. Ever since she disappeared, he was able to control the 'dog-turd' and the 'wimpy-wolf' easily. Maybe it was because she was so fond of the cute little kid that her memory still remained in their heads. Still grumbling, they both stood up and listened to the kid. When he was done, both of them memorized the details in their heads and shot each other a glare before going of in different directions.
A race was about to begin...
That's all for the first Chapter! Please Review and vote who do you think will win the race, 'dog-turd' or 'wimpy-wolf'! The story depends on you and some of my opinions too!
