Heaven Save Us

Chapter 4:

They walked up the stairs to a hall that was lined with red lockers. "I talked to the principal, and he said that we could all go into one homebase for today." Siri said with a smile on her face. "Well, Mrs. Brouse is really fun I've met her before and she's really fun! So, I think we should go there!" Kanna said to everyone else. Sotaru shook her head, "I don't think so! You guys aren't coming to my homebase." Sotaru said while opening her locker. "Ok, we'll take a vote! Besides, the guys get to vote so they might take your side!" Siri said looking over at the guys. "No, because I always loose!" Sotaru said while slamming her locker shut. 'Then again, I don' t think I really have a say in it.' Sotaru thought to herself. "Well, we're doing it anyways! Now, all in favor of going to Sotaru's homebase, raise your hand..." Siri, Kanna, and Thorn raised their hand. Inuyasha and Hiei raised their hands just to make Sotaru angry, and it worked like a charm. Legato didn't care so he didn't even bother, Kenshin didn't raise his hand because of the menacing look Sotaru was giving him. "We'll see you later!" Kanna smiled in triumph. Thorn, Siri, and Kanna started to walk away, "We're going to get a drink!" Thorn yelled back. Sotaru started to walk away, when... "Hey?" Kenshin spoke up. "Yeah." Sotaru stopped and turned around to look at Kenshin. "Can you show us where our lockers are?" Kenshin asked. Sotaru sighed annoyed, "Fine!" Sotaru walked over to them, "Let me see your schedules." They all handed Sotaru their schedules, "Inuyasha, you're here..." Sotaru pointed to the locker before hers, "Legato, you're here..." Sotaru pointed to the locker after hers, "Kenshin, you're here..." Sotaru pointed to the locker one over from Legato's, "And finally, Hiei , you're here!" Sotaru pointed one away from Kenshin's, "Do you need me to open them, for you too?" Sotaru asked sarcastically walking away. Although she didn't hear, but she was answered back with a "Hn." a "..." and a confused Kenshin! "Well, actually I do! -.-" Inuyasha replied bluntly. Soon after Sotaru left Thorn, Siri, and Kanna arrived. And what do you know Thorn's locker was next to Legato's, Siri's was next to Kenshin's, and Kanna's was next to Hiei's. "Where did Sotaru go?" Thorn asked curiously. "I think that she went to her homebase." Legato said with no emotion in his voice. "Oh, I can't wait to annoy her!^^" Thorn said while going off into her own little world. Siri just shook her head, while heavily sighing. "Let's go, or we'll be late!" Kanna said while walking toward Sotaru's homebase. Everyone followed close behind. When they got to the hombase they found Sotaru playing bop-it. "High score one hundred fifty three!" "Yes, I finally beat you! Now I'm champion again!" Sotaru said while doing a victory dance. "Sotaru, did you have sugar this morning?-.-" Kanna asked. Sotaru smiled, "Yeah! Why?" "Never mind. -_-" Kanna said while smiling, "This is going to be a long day!-.-" Everyone just stared at the not so anti-social girl. The other kids in the room looked at the newcomers strangely, "Who are they?" asked a boy. "They're just new people, no one important!" Sotaru jokingly. Inuyasha growled, and was about to reply, when the bell rang. "First, period everyone! Hit the bricks!" Mrs. Brouse called to everyone before they left. "So, where do I go now?" Legato asked looking at his schedule. "He's speaks it's a miracle!" Sotaru said sarcastically, "Now, we just have to get that one to speak." Sotaru finished pointing to Hiei. Hiei scowled, "Hn." While Legato read his schedule Thorn was reading it over his shoulder, "Yay, we have the same first period class!" Thorn said jumping up and down. "Oh, great! -_-" Legato said sighing. "Well, I'm stuck with Sotaru!" Inuyasha said annoyed. "I'm with Siri! ^_^" Kenshin said politely and cheerfully. "And I'm with, Hiei!" Kanna said while smiling. Hiei looked like he wasn't really paying attention. "Hey, Hiei! Did you hear that? You're with Kanna!" Inuyasha teased. "Hn." answered Hiei. "Well, we better get to class!" Kanna said while grabbing Hiei's arm and running off to their class. "Well, our class is this way!" Siri said while pointing the opposite way, and looking at Kenshin. They then left. Sotaru started to walk away, "Ya, comin' ?" Sotaru asked annoyed. "Yeah, unfortunately." Inuyasha replied walking toward Sotaru. "We should go!" Thorn said as she started to walk away. Legato followed close behind. As soon as they turned a corner, they seen a rather large group of cheer leaders. "LOOK, IT'S LEGATO!" they yelled at the same time. "Uh, I think you should run!" Thorn said to Legato as the cheer leaders charged. Legato ran as if his life depended on it, and by the way the cheer leaders were running it did! Legato found Thorn standing by an elevator, "I've got an idea. You hide over here, and let me do the rest!" Thorn said to Legato. Legato looked at Thorn funny, but listened to what she said anyways. Soon the group of girls arrived, "Where'd he go?" One of them asked. "In there..." Thorn said pointing to the actual spot he was. "I'm just kidding he went into the elevator! Hurry, you don't want to miss him!" Thorn said while pushing and shoving people into the elevator. "Hey, he's not in here!" The lead girl said to Thorn. "Sorry, my bad, but it's to late!" Just then the elevator doors closed and the elevator went downward. Legato came out of his hiding place, "I thought that you really were gonna tell them where I was!" "Well, number one; I did tell them where you were and number two; your problem is that you think! Follow mine and Sotaru's philosophy and never think! Although, she'll never admit to it!" Thorn said smiling. Legato didn't notice until now how beautiful Thorn was, wait what was he thinking he just meant her this morning. But, there was something different about her, besides the fact that she was weird or in her words gifted! He shrugged it off and started to walk to class, when he realized he didn't know where he was going, "We should go to class!" Legato said to Thorn trying to avoid eye contact. "Yeah, I guess you're right!" Thorn replied walking away, Legato following close behind. The next couple of periods went by very fast. It was now lunch. Every eleventh grader in the building was in the lunch room or line. Except for Thorn, Sotaru, Kanna, Siri, and the newcomers. "Hey Kanna!" Sotaru whispered. "Yeah." she answered back. "Has Hiei said anything yet?" Sotaru asked. "Uh, no, why?" "Just wondering! There's got to be some way to make him talk, it's just bugging me!" Sotaru replied back. "The weirdest things bug you, Sotaru!" Siri interjected. "It's not my fault! Now, time to think of a way to make him talk!" Sotaru said while going off into her own little world...
