Chapter Seven – Darkness and LightThe following day started more or less the same as the one before, with the exception of Odd sleeping in, which cost Ulrich a lot of free time. "Odd you idiot! Because of you we are gonna miss class!" "It wasn't my fault!" "I don't know, you stayed up all night listening to that music of your!" "Erm... you got me there..." He laughed.
They jumped the stairs and Ulrich checked his watch, "Odd, we have ten seconds!" Odd tripped over and Ulrich continued running, "It's every man for himself!" He made it into the classroom, "Hurry Odd! You have three... two... one..." Odd skidded into the classroom. "TIME!" The bell then rung and Odd did a little victory dance. "I beat the clock, oh yeah!" "Mr Della Robbia! Please take your seat!" The class went into unstoppable laughter.
Odd took his seat with the others, "I didn't mean for that to happen." He whispered, he should've not bothered as his friends were still giggling. "Typical..."
"Class we have another student joining us today." A girl with blonde hair and white clothes walked into the classroom, "My name is Awai. I hope I get to be friends with all of you." She did a little bow and took a seat at the front of the classroom.
After class the four took a spot beside the shed and began chatting, "Hey I just realised something about the two new kids, Yami means Darkness and Awai means light..." The others stared at Yumi blankly, she sighed and rolled her eyes, "It is Japanese. I think it has something to do with Xana-" "But how can that be? Xana is destroyed remember?" Aelita cut in.
"That's true but still it seems too much to be a coincidence..." Odd said, Ulrich began to speak, "Well I say whatever happens we stay away from Yami, he seems a little strange..." Ulrich stared over at him, he was sitting in a secluded corner of the grounds under a tree fiddling with a video camera, "See what I mean?"
"Leave him alone Ulrich, he's a typical loner. Still the sort of person you wouldn't want to meet in a dark street though." Sissy walked over to them and began to try to flirt with Ulrich, "So Ulrich, you decided that you want to go out on a date with me yet?" Ulrich laughed, "What's so funny?" Sissy questioned, "You! You are completely pathetic trying to flirt with me." "Well no more than Aelita over there, she's always trying to act weak to get more boys around her!" At this Odd walked forwards, "Leave Aelita out of this. She didn't do any-" Aelita stepped forwards and motioned for Odd to stop.
"Sissy, why do you seem to pick on me?" Sissy grinned, "So you can speak, well to answer your question, I play mind games, you keep me entertained." Aelita frowned, "Well I'd like you to stop." "Really? Is that the case now? Well who's gonna make me?" "If you don't leave me alone I will." "What? How? You are just a loser like the others and that other no-show Jeremie. I don't see how you can." At this Aelita began to feel more anger, "I'm no loser, neither are the others." Sissy grinned, she knew Aelita was ticked and she thought it'd be funny to continue...
Then she had an idea, she decided to hit her where it hurt, "Where is that no-show Jeremie anyway? What a slacker, disappearing like this to skip school for three days." Herb and Nick behind her giggled, "He's probably afraid to come to school because he's a loser!" She started to laugh really hard. Aelita was trying to hold her anger but was struggling. "What are you gonna do now? You gonna cry?"
Sissy grinned evily, "I always knew Jeremie was a wimp but I didn't know you were too!" That was the final straw, Aelita landed a punch on Sissys cheek and sent her flying by a meter. Then she broke down in tears and ran off to cry somewhere. Sissy ran off to her dads office to tell on Aelita, Herb and Nick made a quick exit off the scene and the others ran after Aelita.
When Aelita came to a halt beside a tree she sat by it and cried into her knees. The others stood beside it waiting for her to calm down. "Oh that Sissy! She thinks she's soooo pretty and smart when she's just a... a... a bully!" She cried for a few more minutes then the bell went. "Calm down Aelita, so you lost your cool. Big deal. Sissy drives us crazy but she really gave you a hard time."
During the next class Sissy came in late and handed a note to Miss Hertz, "Aelita, you're wanted in the principals office." Aelita slowly got up and walked there dragging her feet along. When she arrived there she knocked on the door then entered. The principal asked her to take a seat.
"Aelita, I have been informed that at recess you attacked Sissy." "But... that's not true sir... I..." "The evidence is on Sissy's face, a swollen up bruise. That proves it." "Sir, you don't know my side of the story, I was talking to my friends and-" "Decided to attack my daughter." Aelita began to cry again, "What? No! I didn't she annoyed me and-" "You lashed out for no reason. I'm sorry Aelita but you will be suspended and that's final!"
Another knock was on the door and Yami entered, "Young man, you don't have an appointment. Return to class now." "Wait. I have something you might want to see." He took a video tape out of his pocket and interted it into a Tv in the corner. After switching it on the tape played...

Yami smiled, "I think that just about clears thing up."
"Aelita, I... I... I should've listened to you. I'm sorry for not listening to you first. Sissy provoked you and it probably pushed you to your limits with Jeremie as he is and all. I can understand why you reacted how you did and I guess if I was in your position I would've too. I'm really sorry." Aelita wiped off a tear and smiled lightly, "It's ok. Sissy's insults got to me and I lost it." "I'll see that daughter of mine gets what she deserves!" He turned around, "Thank you Yami-" He stopped, Yami was gone...
