Just Another Year

Sophomore year, beginning of another trip to high school; to Kikyo, school was a penitentiary. And instead of being a typical schoolgirl, she was a prisoner number 36291 sentenced to 9 months of hard labor. But for some reason, she decided to stay there the maximum time available. She spent her dreary mornings in her most loathed class, PE, her lunchtimes practicing for band, and after school time in tech theater. Since she's too afraid to try out for the plays, she thought the least she could do was do the behind the scenes work.

During this time, Kikyo was tired as a black slave worker everyday. Every day she would come home and drop on the couch like a dead body for a leisurely nap. After a while, she started to get used to it, though she loathed it, but got used to it. And yet, she still ended up being bored every day, wasting her technology driven life on the computer, talking to her friends about nothing.

"God, I hate this place! We are so sheltered! What happened to all those jungle-wild parties, where everyone gets pregnant, or drunk, or the cops bust it? I bet I could move somewhere else and get in trouble for getting caught in a party like that! I feel so deprived!" Kikyo complained frequently as she stomped her foot. "Here I am, wasting my insignificant life on this god forsaken computer, no life whatsoever. There's not even drama going on through this life of mine, and all I do is complain about it! " Kikyo rolled her eyes at herself as she pathetically whimpered to herself as she always does, scowling like a cat that just got sprayed with water.

Little did Kikyo know, what drama that lies ahead in the not-so-distant future. For at first it just seems as some innocent fun, but then when she's apart of it all of a sudden she wants to back out.. But the influence of the spectacle had Kikyo drawn to it like Sleeping Beauty to the spinning wheel.
