Ginger snaps down on a new friend. Part 2

Scissors, paper, rock….

How Anyriyth copes after her little "run in" with ginger…

Note: I don't on Ginger snaps, although I wish I did ….

Anyriyth murmured slightly as consciousness swept over her in a wave of confusion… and pain. Her brow's furrowed as she sat up looking at her arm. There was dry blood and a faint mark, as though someone had bit her there, long ago. She flexed her hand and forearm… It was fine. Anyriyth couldn't believe it. She had heard the bone crunch, just last night…

Last night…. Ginger. Blood. Pain…

Memories swirled into her mind along with thoughts and confusion. She felt dry blood caked on the left side of her face. She reached up and gingerly brushed the wound with her index finger, no pain just soft, skin…

Anyriyth got up looking around her. She glanced upon the musty surface of a dusted mirror… nothing familiar… An open window caught her attention. She crept over to it and looked out into the darkness. Anyriyth smiled, climbing onto the windowsill and crawling out, feeling the soft spring of well watered grass beneath her, bare feet. She ran all the way home avoiding the streetlights wherever possible. Crawling through her window and into her unmade bed she fell asleep unnaturally quickly. Too lazy to pull the sheets over herself or change…

The next few day's were a blur … It felt like she was occupying the bode of a different person…She was more outgoing, she took more chances, she even swore openly at the math teacher in class. Yet, she felt right, as though this was the "her" she had kept caged up all her life and now she freed it. Set it loose to reek havoc amongst the pathetic civilians of "Bailey Downs".

She had to admit, her life home was a complete hole. She'd seen ginger too… going off and doing crazy things … her and her sister were spending a lot of time with the drug dealer… and his ex girlfriend had "mysteriously" gone missing yet Anyriyth gave no thought to it. Not her problem. She picked at her black nail polish as the history teacher droned on out the front about something that happened so long ago only old people bothered to remember it.

Anyriyth suddenly acted on random impulses and strongly threw a pair off scissors at the blackboard. They stuck there, wobbling metallically. The class fell silent looking around to see whom had done it. Anyriyth looked around too, just to play along yet she was bewildered herself that she had done it.

"If whomsoever did that does not own up the entire class will stay in! after school" trilled the old History teacher Mr.Jepherson. The whole class groaned simultaneously.

"So whoever it was better own up quickly!"

Anyriyth stood up without a thought or regret.

"It was me sir" she said casually. "I did it" The class began to talk amongst themselves all of a sudden, replacing the silence with an ascending drone. The teacher shook his head smiling softly. "Sit down Anyriyth, Your not taking the blame for what someone else has done.-"

"-But It was her sir I saw her do it!" said Liam Carter, whom Anyriyth new for a fact, hadn't because at the time he was putting glue balls in the ends of Kate Adler's hair. Everyone agreed. No one wanted to stay after school, they had better things to do, for example hanging. The Teacher's brows furrowed, so Anyriyth walked up to the blackboard, feeling the press of all eyes upon her and yanked them out walked back … then pelted them forward once again… landing in exactly the same place as last time…

Everyone was silent as Anyriyth smirked placidly the room filled with the distant sound of metallic thruuuuuuummmmmm.

As soon as the sound stopped Mr Jefferson seemed to wake up. "D-.. Detention" he spluttered… NOW".

"Yes sir " she mumbled saluting and gathering about her things before standing up and wandering out the door. She ran straight into a tall jacket.

She stopped.

She looked up,… and stared coldly. "Oh … sorry…" She mumbled absently.
The cold green eyes stared at her deeply He was silent for awhile but just as she thought he would reply he mumbled.

"Its fine…" and ambled off. Anyriyth blinked, then continued off to the detention room thinking about things that have never occurred to her before… Like how his vein looked under the skin of his pale throat…
