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

*~ True Colours ~*

Kai sloughed lazily in his chair, not caring what the teacher had to say, he gazed, absently out of the glass window, trying to discern familiar shapes amongst the grey clouds that covered the sky as far as the eye could see. It was a warm, almost humid day, and the atmosphere in the room was a very slow, tired one. A Monday morning, the day no one paid attention, it was almost like a warm-up day to prepare students for the coming week, the teachers knew this and so generally didn't bother to teach very much on Mondays.

A sharp rap from the other side of the door silenced the professor. He looked at the wooden door as if it were a rude child who had just offended an elder. Before he could issue the 'enter' command, it was opened, and the Head Mistress breezed in.

Unlike most Head Teachers, she was young, pretty, and a very down to earth lady. She sympathized well with the students, and seemed to understand them, but she was also strict. One of those adults who children just seem to like.

With her was a girl, she was quite tall, and slim, she had a body many of the other girls in the class dreamed of, but for all her bodily assets, she appeared quite ugly.

She wasn't hunched, and her head was not bowed, but the way she moved gave the impression that she wanted to remain unnoticed, she had bronze hair which was raked up into an uneven, and messy bun, and it looked a little tangled, she wore no make-up, perhaps she would have been more attractive if she did, but her eyes were strange.

They were a pale, slate grey, they were dull and seemed unfocussed, and she never seemed to look directly at anything. It was as if her eyes were dead, and she didn't blink very often. Perhaps she was on drugs, perhaps she always looked like this.

Kai sneered at her as her eyes passed in his direction, but she didn't seem to notice, even though her dull eyes gazed directly into his, he didn't feel she had even looked at him, so little was the attention she paid.

Kai growled, he didn't like this new girl, and he glanced at his friend, Tala who sat beside him, he was clearly thinking the same thing.

When the Head had entered, the room had hushed for a second, but, the students had quickly lost interest and started talking again, the different convocations merging to create one low babble of noise.

Soon, after speaking to the Professor, the Head Mistress left, leaving the girl behind.

"Class, this is...I'm sorry, your name is?" he asked her.

"Hael Kinyonova ," she said, "I'm from Russia."

It was true, she spoke with a heavy accent. Kai looked at Tala again, and they silently decided that they should bully her, it was tradition after all, the new kid was always picked on, and this one looked like a looser anyway, so all the better. Besides, Kai, for some reason, had taken an instant dislike of her the moment he saw her. Something about her just seemed odd to him.

"Right, yes, Hael, go take a seat and we will continue with the lesson." He said. The talk instantly started again. Kai watched the girl as she walked to an empty seat in front of him, and sat down. He narrowed his eyes at the back of her head, Tala nudged him.

"Kai, you go first !" he hissed in a whisper. His friend nodded, he wondered how quickly this girl got angry. He screwed up a ball of paper and flicked it at her, it bounced off her ear, Kai smirked, expecting her to turn around and glare at him. He was disappointed, she merely sighed, and her shoulders slumped, here eyes gazing absently ahead, listening to the droning voice at the front.

Kai growled, he always expected some kind of reaction from his victims, he found it strangely irritating when nothing happened, growling, he screwed up more balls of paper, and used a ruler to flick them at her. This continued for about a minute more. Kai decided he would do one more, and if she didn't react he would begin kicking the back of her chair.

He bent the ruler back and catapulted it forwards, just before it hit her, she ducked her head, the ball zoomed to the front, and struck the professor on the cheek.

"Kai Hiwitari!" He roared, seeing the teen holding the ruler, "Get out! Detention!" Kai scowled and glared at the girl as he stalked past her, she didn't even glance at him.

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

Hael sighed, and walked quietly though the corridors, avoiding the few scuffles the boys were having, and swerving around groups of cheerleaders. She remembered the directions the Head had given her to hr locker, when she reached it, she swiftly turned the combination lock until it clicked open.

She placed her books inside, and closed it.

She turned as she heard someone come to the locker beside hers.

"Hi, I'm Emily, you new here?" Asked the short girl with glasses, looking up at the taller girl as she pulled some books out of her locker.

Yes, I'm Hael, this is my first day here, so I don't know too many people." She said.

"Hm, your from Russia, right?" asked Emily.

"Yeah, heh, is my accent really that bad ?" Chuckled Hael.

"You shouldn't be ashamed, I love the Russian accent, are you fluent in the language?" Asked Emily.

Before Hael could reply, Kai was standing behind her, grabbing her shoulders and spinning her around so she faced him.

"Bitch!" He hissed. Even when her grey eyes were staring right into is dark red ones, it still seemed as if she was looking right through him.

Se calmly removed is hands.

"Why, because you were flicking bits of paper at me?" She said. Emily bit her lip in anxiety, didn't Hael know that Kai Hiwitari was not one to be messed with?

"No, because you got me a detention !" Yelled Kai, Tala stood beside him, glaring at Hael.

"No," She said, still perfectly calmly, her vacant eyes neither narrowing or widening, just staring, "You got yourself a detention."

Kai couldn't think of too much to say in response, so he merely said.

"I'm going to make the rest of your life a living Hell!" He spat. She quietly turned away from him.

"It already is." She murmured, before walking away with Emily.

Kai just stood and watched her go. Something about the sad, resigned way in which she had said it seemed to drag his heart down with the quiet passion with which she had spoken. He growled, and the cruellest prank he could think of started seeping into his mind.

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

Hael sat with Mariah, Ray, Max and Emily. She had been introduced, and become a welcome member of their group.

She sighed, she really wished that she hadn't made an enemy out of Kai, Emily had told her about his vicious nature and how he loved bullying people, and now that Hael had stood up to him, he wouldn't rest till her spirit was crushed beneath the sole of his shoe.

Another school, another spiteful person, it was always the same. In the end, she knew her mother would insist on her moving schools again, and then the process would begin somewhere else.

She wondered why bullies were drawn to her, maybe it was a sixth sense that they had, and they were able to tell she had an abnormality, maybe it was just because she was ugly, either way, they always picked on her.

Wild-Roze: Ooookay, I know its not much of a plot so far, but trust me it will get better. Heh, and what is Kai thinking of doing to her ? HAH! Wait and find out, please R&R. x x x
