Chapter 2:

"The last class of the day." Sora said to Riku as he walked down the hall. "What do you have?"

Riku looked at his schedule. "Oh, right. I have drawing class. I just came back from Japanese. Ms. Kisaragi is one hyper teacher, but I'd hit that."

Sora rolled his eyes and looked at his own schedule. Gym class. "Mr. Highwind…"

"Dude, you have gym? We both have useless classes last period. We can cut together sometime."

"Whatever, Riku." Sora smirked and turned for the gym. "I'll see you after class."

Sora entered the gym, and it was pretty big for a school gym as well. He walked over to the middle where plenty of kids were sitting down, and he spotted both girls and boys. So it's co-ed. He sat down and took his bookbag off, resting it onto the floor. Someone then tapped his shoulder. He turned, and saw Kairi starring back at him.

"I didn't know you had gym. Jeez, you should tell me!" she said. Sora turned to his friend.

"I didn't think it would be co-ed so I didn't bother. What do you think we're going to be doing in here?"

"Im not sure. Probably just random sports." She said. Sora then changed the subject.

"Hey…have you seen this girl…"

Kairi was afraid he would ask about Rinoa. She would be horrified if he actually liked her back. What girl, Sora? With black hair, a blue dress and an attitude?

"She had blonde hair, a white dress and was really nice. Have you seen her around? Maybe in any classes?" Sora questioned. Kairi let out a sigh of relief and wondered who her cinnamon-haired friend was talking about.

"Nope, no one like that." She said after thinking about it for a moment. Sora looked dissapointed. "Why…who is she?"

"No one special. Not exactly…erm. I met her at the library. She was pretty cool." Sora said, not sure how to explain. "It doesn't matter."

Suddenly, Sora's bookbag was pushed a few feet away swiftly and something hit against his knees. Kairi let out a shout and Sora fell back, and when we got up and opened his eyes he saw Selphie who slid between them out of no where.

"Hiya!" she said to them. "You guys have this class too?"

"Hey Selphie!" Kairi said happily. "Yeah, we do."

Selphie clapped and layed on her back, but then a coarse voice let out a yell from across the gym.

"You!" the man shouted roughly. "What the hell was that, you don't think I see that shit you just pulled?"

Selphie was still smiling, to Kairi's surprise.

"I'm not pulling any shit, sir. In fact I'm not even in the bathroom." Selphie said. Kairi gasped and Sora started to laugh behind her.

"Don't talk back to me little girl. I do some pretty freaky god damn shit to people who don't listen to me." The man said and finally stopped walking to them. "I'm Mr.Highwind, and you better god damn remember it."

Sora wondered if gym would be too harsh for him this year. Mr.Highwind didn't look like the type that went softly on people. He didn't sound like the type, either.

"In this class, I don't take bullshit. We're going to be working out, doin' push ups and that shit in the beginning. Then we're gonna' be playing sports the rest of the period. If you didn't notice, I curse like god damn hell too. So if you have a problem with that, get out."

Selphie raised her hand, and Sora wondered if she was crazy. Damn this girl's got guts.

"Mr. Highwind, does the principal know you curse? I don't think she'd allow all that." She said, smirking. Mr. Highwind glared at her.

"The principal is a bigger bitch than anyone in the school, so she doesn't really care." He said. "Watch out for her."

After about half an hour, the bell rang for the next class or dismissal, depending on the schedule. Sora and Kairi ran outside and waited for Riku to come out. Kairi was also looking around for Selphie, who went another direction for some reason.

"Are you sure she gets out this period?" Sora asked.

"Positive. She told me to wait for her." Kairi said still looking around. She spotted someone she actually didn't want to see instead. Shit.

"Hey Kairi, got through your first day of school okey-dokey?" Rinoa asked, looking at Sora the whole time. Kairi glared at her.

"I'm a big girl now, yeah." She said. "What's gotten into you?"

Rinoa said nothing and continued to look at Sora, then back at Kairi. She smiled at Kairi, and walked passed her. She was still looking until Kairi caught a sudden glimpse of a skull out of nowhere. She jumped back and looked away. What the hell was that..?

'There's Riku!" Sora said, pointing to his friend. Riku walked up to them and noticed Kairi's expression.

"What's wrong? You look out of it." He asked. Kairi shook her head.

"I'm fine, just feel a bit odd." She said. Sora laughed.

"It was probably because of Mr.Highwind." he said. Riku glanced at Selphie who was running towards them.

"You have him too? That guy's awesome." He said. Sora rolled his eyes.

"Hey Selphie, come on." Kairi said to her friend. "Where'd you go?"

"I had to talk to a teacher after class about something. Mr. Highwind was right, I saw the principal and she's a real bitch." Selphie said. "She doesn't look too friendly, but shes really pretty."

"Who, Ms. Larxene?" Riku asked. "She already yelled at this kid in my drawing class for having his cell phone visible. She needs to get laid."

"I'm sure you'd help her with that problem, right Riku?" Kairi said. They all shared a laugh, and Sora glanced back at the school for a moment.

What was that he saw though? A girl with a white dress and blonde hair, still by the front doors and walking towards the right. Sora saw it as oppurtunity and quickly turned around.

"I'll be right back!" he shouted to his friend. They all looked at eachother in confusion as they watched Sora run back to the school and over to the right. Sora has gotten to the front doors and then saw the girl turning the corner. He followed her once again, and when he turned the corner she was gone. "What the hell?"

He walked all the way to the end and still, she was no where to be found. There was that willow tree by the window in that secret room though, and a patch of white, lavendar and pale-blue flowers around the tree. He looked around the next corner, and still no blonde-haired girl. Sora shrugged and ran all the way back, down the stairs and towards his friends. When he met up with them they all asked what he was doing.

"I just thought I saw someone, that's all." He said. Riku shrugged.

"Whatever, lets go home. I don't like staying by the school for too long when I don't have to be there." Riku said. The four walked back home together, talking, as Sora wondered where that girl went.

A week later, the kids started getting used to the new school. The teachers, the students, they even memorized most of their classes and where to go. Sora didn't mind school too much and the rumors he once heard of seemed to escape his mind. He never did find that girl again, but today was going to be different. Right now Sora was in Greek class, annoyed that the teacher just gave out a pop quiz.

"You've learned the Alphabet so far, so your pop quiz is for you to list all the letters." Mr. Kinneas said. "Good luck."

Sora pouted and looked down at his paper. Let's see…

Oh god..what was after Zeta again?

Sora thought about the next letter…he remembered it was something familiar that was an English letter as well. Suddenly, the door burst open and a tall woman with blonde hair and a pretty face stomped in. Her face, although cute, was twisted into an angry look and she was grabbing a boy by the neck, dragging him inside.

"I found this young man running around the halls." She shouted. "He has your class, Mr. Kinneas."

"Well thanks for bringing him." Mr. Kinneas eyed the boy angrily. "So are you Wakka? You're the only one absent on my attendance list."

"Call his house." The woman said angrily. Sora figured it was Ms. Larxene. "One more time and I'll suspend your ass." With that, she left and slammed the door shut.

Wow, what a bitch. Sora thought. Mr. Kinneas pointed to an empty seat next to Sora and told Wakka to sit down. Wakka walked over and did just that, obviously quite embarressed. He tried to smile and turned to Sora.

"You've been cutting for a week?" Sora asked. Wakka nodded and grinned.

"I guess it's time for me to stop, ya?" he said. Mr. Kinneas glared at them.

"We're taking a quiz. Both of you be quiet, and Sora five points off."

What the hell? Sora thought and mentally glared at the teacher. He continued to take the quiz and skipped the letter he wasn't sure of.

Kairi was in lunch, sitting at a table with Selphie and a girl they just met named Yuna. She put mustard on her sandwich and took a bite out of it as Selphie continued to ramble on about her math teacher.

"Who does he think he is, anyway? Do we need to find "x"? What does "x" mean to us, in our lives? He just yelled at me for asking too many question! Excuse me, but you're supposed to help me!" Selphie whined. Yuna laughed at her.

"I think you just like to complain." She said to her. "Who is this teacher?"

"Mr. Axel. What a name, huh?" Selphie remarked. Kairi giggled and opened her milk carton.

"Well I auditioned for the play today." She said. "In my opinion, Rinoa would fit the part better than me."

"Why do you say that?" Yuna asked.

"I think she's a better actress for Princess Sakura. She fits the role better, you know?" Kairi said. "Plus, if I get the part…Rinoa wouldn't be too nice to me. She isnt now and I cant imagine…"

"Don't be scared of that witch, Kairi." Selphie said. "She cant do anything to you."

"…And plus, she likes Sora." Kairi continued.

"Oh, so you do too?" Selphie asked, and laughed. Kairi put her milk down.

"I never said that! She just thinks I do and…she's jealous that I hang out with him. Does she really think he'll like someone like her though? What a joke."

Yuna and Selphie exchanged a look and nodded. They figured Kairi liked him anyway, and she noticed this. Kairi got up from her seat.

"I'm going to the bathroom." She said, and walked away. Ok, maybe I do, so what? I can tell Selphie another time. Yuna shouldn't know. Kairi entered the girl's bathroom and looked around. It was empty. She walked over to one of the stalls and opened them, and she checked if it was clean. When she was satisfied, she closed the stall door and locked it. Before she can do anything else though, there was a knock on her stall. Then another.

"Um, taken." She said. I didn't hear anyone enter…

The knocking continued and this time it was a bit louder. Kairi was startled by this and knocked back. "I said t-a-k-e-n. Underst-" Her sentence was cut off by a hard bang against the stall that made her jump back. Kairi wondered who the hell could be doing this and she unlocked the door and pushed it open. No one.

"H-hello?" she asked and slowly walked out. She looked to the left, and to the right. Even though she was frightened, she figured it was someone playing a prank and they ran out. Kairi quickly spun around and there was a face right in front of her, starring into her eyes. She screamed and fell back onto the sinks.

"Boo." Rinoa said. She laughed out loud as Kairi caught her breathe and glared at the girl.

"What's the matter with you?" she asked, clearly pissed off. Rinoa didn't answer her question and walked to a sink next to Kairi. She turned on the faucet and started to wash her hands. Kairi looked at the girl, and noticed she was wearing a big grin on her face. Creepy..

"I asked you a question." Kairi said. Rinoa turned her head slowly and Kairi saw something horrific. Her eyes were rolled all the way up, and the girl was still grinning. Strands of her black hair stuck all over her face, sweat keeping it there. Kairi had a disturbed feeling and couldn't be in the bathroom any longer. She turned and quickly ran out, and continued to run all the way back to the table. Selphie and Yuna noticed their redhead friend collapse onto the seat out of breathe.

"You looked like you were in pain. Constipated or something? Yuna go ask that lunch lady, Quina, for some laxatives." Selphie joked. Kairi ignored her friend's comment.

"Rinoa was in there…she looked…I don't know I cant explain it. Her eyes were rolled up into her head, it was so creepy. I felt very uncomfortable in there…" Kairi said. Yuna raised an eyebrow.

"Rolled up into her head? Are you sure she wasn't trying to scare you?" she asked. Kairi shrugged.

"She tried to the first time she kept banging on my stall. And then she did that…but it looked…" Kairi thought about what to say. "Whatever…"

The bell rung, and the girls got up from their table and off to their next class. Kairi looked back at the bathroom, and she saw Rinoa walk out. She also noticed Rinoa wearing spiked bracelets which she hadnt noticed before. That girl hates those things…what's she doing with them? Kairi made nothing of it and left the cafeteria.

Sora was walking towards his next class as well, until he was spotted something out of the corner of his eye. It was her, the girl in the white dress and blonde hair. She was walking down the hall and she suddenly turned around to stare at Sora, and turned the corner. Sora pushed through some of the kids and turned the corner as well, but there was only one room at the end of this hall. He ran up to the door and opened it, but stopped when he heard some people talking.

"So is he in jail now?" a man asked. The other person in the room took a while to respond, but Sora heard coffee being poured into a cup.

"Definitely. It's a shame though…he only did it out of love." A woman said. She sipped her coffee. "What was her name again?" The nice one."

Sora suddenly stumbled and the door swung open, startling the two teachers inside the room. Sora looked up quickly his hair ruffling when he did so. He grinned.

"Uh, hi." He said. "I'm sorry about that."

"Shouldn't you be in class?" the woman asked. "Go on, now."

"Maybe he has a free period now, Ms. Trepe." The man said. He turned to Sora to see if that was it. Sora got up and dusted off his bookbag.

"Did a girl with blonde hair walk in here?" he asked. The two of them looked bewildered and shook their heads.

"No, no one walked in here." Ms. Trepe said, a questionable look on her face. Sora nodded and left the room quickly, leaving the two adults confused. Sora ran to his next class, which was History. I wonder what those two were talking about, and where did that girl go?

Sora walked into his next class and sat down next to Selphie, like usual. He opened his notebook and took out a pen. The teacher didn't mind Sora being late, he came only a few seconds after the bell rang anyway. He concentrated to what was on the board but then he heard Selphie whispering to him. He tried to ignore her, but he couldn't and she would only get louder and the teacher would yell at both of them.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"You should make a move on Kairi today." She said. "I think she likes you, and she's not feeling too good either. She's vulnerable!"

"What? How do you know?" Sora asked. Selphie grinned.

"I knew you'd be interested. It was very noticable the way she spoke about you today, and you like her, don't you?"

Sora couldn't say he didn't.

"Alright then." He said. Selphie didn't turn around though.

"Oh, and there was a girl with blonde hair looking at you through the door-window thing. I didn't think you'd care though…but she left now."

Sora froze. That girl came back after him? Was she still out there? He turned to Selphie.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" he said, a bit roughly. Selphie looked surprised.

"You know who I'm talking about?" she asked. Sora raised his hand immedietly and asked for permission to go to the bathroom. He got up when the teacher acquiesced to his request and left the room, Selphie's eyes following him as he left. "Why does he care so much?"

Sora walked out of class and looked around. God, am I acting desperate. He walked down the hall and into a larger hall which was also empty. Around here was the library, so Sora figured she might be there. He walked towards the library's double doors but then he heard someone behind him.

"We meet again." The girl said, smiling. Sora smiled as well. There she is.

"Hey…wow I've been looking for you. Well like…I've seen you around and…" Sora didn't really know what to say, and he didn't want to sound like a stalker.

"You have to listen to me." She said. "Don't let your friend Kairi get the lead role in the play."

Sora raised his eyebrow and saw this as a very odd request. He thought maybe she wanted to take that part from her. "Why?"

"Just trust me on this. If you let her get that role, it'll lead to danger." She said. "Tell her not to take it."

"But she really wants this part." He said. "What does this have to do with anything?"

"I beg you, please." She said. Her blue eyes looked at him, begging him to do this for her. Sora stepped back a bit.

"I guess..I'll try. But I want an explanation." Sora said. The girl turned and started to walk away.

"Well you see…its best not to tell you." She said. She turned and blushed, then glanced at Sora, closing her eyes, and looked away. Sora found this act very hypnotic. What a pretty girl…

"Why not…" he asked, walking towards her. She suddenly ran into the stairwell, not looking back. Sora ran after her, but once he got to the stairwell she dissapeared. Again. Sora cursed under his breathe and made his way back to class. Why does she do that?

Afterschool, the four of them walked home together just like everyday. Sora was right by Kairi and they started to talk about random things together. Riku and Selphie avoided talking to them on purpose, and only spoke to eachother. Selphie's house came up and Riku was about to say goodbye to her.

"It's Friday and I'm sleeping over Kairi's." she said. "My mom knows."

"Oh, excuse me. Well I'm sleeping over Sora's, arent I?" Riku said, smirking. Sora looked at his friend.

"Oh…yeah. I guess if you want to." He said. Selphie giggled.

"He seems so excited." She said sarcastically. Riku glared at her and Sora laughed.

"I mean of course your going to sleep over, buddy." Sora said. Kairi and Selphie laughed together. Riku then noticed they got to their homes. He ran towards his house.

"I'll go get my stuff." He shouted back at them. Selphie turned and yelled.

"Don't forget the "toys"." She said, trying hard not to laugh. Sora made a disgusted face and Kairi laughed. He put his arm around her.

"Let me walk you home." He said. Kairi blushed and nodded. Selphie walked closely behind them, eavesdropping as well.

"So Kairi, maybe you and me should uh…" Sora didn't know how to say it but Kairi read his mind.

"Be together?" she said, coming closer. Sora gulped and nodded.

"Yeah…" he said. Kairi nodded, saying yes. Sora let out a sigh of relief and stopped in front of her house. "And also…I hear you're trying out for the lead in the play."

"Yup, for the play Ms. Gainsborough wrote." She said happily.

"Well…maybe you shouldn't take the lead." He said. Kairi's facial expression changed dramatically.

"Why…?" she said. "Don't you think…"

"Well…maybe its too much work or like…someone else really wants that role." He said, hoping he didn't sound like an idiot. Selphie immedietly ran behind Kairi and made a "shut up!" motion. Sora ignored her.

"Someone else? You mean like Rinoa?" Kairi asked, getting more furious with him.

"No not exactly…I mean just. Maybe it's a bad idea."

"Who put you up to this? Or maybe you just think I cant act!"

"I think you can act!" he said. "Just, this girl told me if you star in the play it'll be dangerous."

Kairi looked at him and lowered her eyebrows. "Dangerous? You have to be kidding me."

"It's true!"

"Who is this girl Sora? Rinoa?" she shouted. Sora shouted back.

"No! Damnit, it was just some girl that I met in the school and she said if you star in the play it'll be dangerous, that's all."

"Don't you think she just wants the part for herself?" she asked. "Sora whats on your mind?"

Sora starred ahead, past Selphie who also had an angry look on her face. He didn't really know what to say. He didn't know why he was saying this in the first place. Why believe some girl he met just recently? He doesn't even know her name! And yet, there was something trustworthy about her, and he didn't know what it was. Maybe he was just a sucker for beauty.

"Nothing." He said.

"You look like you're deep in thought, tell me whats going on." She said. "Do I not act motivated for the part?"

"No, you're definitely motivated. It's just nothing, really." He said. "Forget about anything I said."

"Unfortunetly it's hard to do that." She brushed past him and opened her door, and Selphie walked in looking at Sora with a confused look.

"You guys just started going out and you had your first fight?" she said. Kairi slammed the door right after that. Sora sighed and turned around. What did I do…

Sora walked back towards his house, and Riku was waiting outside. He was leaning against the door and he noticed Sora was upset.

"Whats wrong with you?" he asked. Sora shook his head.

"Kairi and I just started going out…" he said. Riku tilted his head.

"And you're upset?" he asked, trying not to laugh.

"It's not that, smart one. We just got into a big argument about something. I told her not to go for the lead in the play."

"Why is that?" his friend asked. Riku moved out of the way and Sora opened the door, walking inside. Riku followed and closed the door.

"I'll explain upstairs." Sora said. Riku shrugged.

At night, Kairi and Selphie stayed up watching movies in the living room. Kairi's parents went out to a friend's house for dinner and werent going to come back until two or so. The two girls didn't really speak much about Sora or the fight after that, they just focused on other things. During the movie, the phone rang and Kairi got up. Selphie munched on the popcorn and listened to the conversation.

"Hello?" Kairi said.

"Hey, Kairi." A familiar voice said. "It's Rinoa."

Kairi wanted to hang up the phone and slam it repeatedly against the wall. She tried her best not to do so.

"…Hi."

"What's wrong? Are you not having fun with your little friend?" she asked. Kairi paused the movie and Selphie sat up, very curious about who was on the phone.

"How did you know…?"

Suddenly there was a loud tap against the window. It sounded like a rock being pelted at the glass. The girls jumped and Kairi threw the phone. Selphie examined the window and noticed a small crack.

"She threw a rock!" Kairi shouted. Selphie looked at her friend.

"Who?" Selphie asked.

"Rinoa! She's here!"

Selphie looked very pissed off. No snotty, stuck up girl was going to scare them. What the hell was that spoiled brat going to do? She walked over to the door and unlocked it, and then she turned the doorknob.

"Selphie, no!" Kairi said, running towards her friend. Selphie was about to yell outside, but the door wouldn't open. Selphie shook it.

"What's wrong with this stupid door?" she said, annoyed. Kairi was a bit relieved, and then not so much when she realised the door should be opening. It was unlocked.

"….There's no way…" she said and ran to one of the windows. She tried to open it but it wouldn't budge. "What's happening?"

The girls then heard footsteps upstairs. Kairi's hairs raised and she got goosebumps. Her heart beat quickened and she started to sweat. What was Rinoa trying to do? She stepped closer to the stairs and looked up, Selphie right behind her.

"Do you think she got inside? But how?" Selphie asked. Kairi didn't want to believe she was upstairs. The two of them slowly walked upstairs and when they finally got to the top, there was nothing in the hallway.

"What about your room?" Selphie whispered.

"Let's see then…" Kairi said, nervously. She pushed the door open and what she saw scared the hell out of both of them.

A girl stood there in the moonlight. They werent sure if it was Rinoa, but it did resemble her. Only this girl's face looked like it was peeling and her black hair flew in the wind that was coming from the open window. Her eyes rolled up into her head and her mouth, like a gaping black hole, was hanging open and a pale tounge was hanging out. Kairi slammed the door shut and both girls screamed as loud as they could. They ran down the stairs almost stumbling over eachother and Selphie grabbed a butcher knife from the kitchen. Kairi grabbed the phone and they both locked themselves in the downstairs bathroom.

"What the hell was that…" Selphie said, a tear running down her cheek. Kairi frantically dialed the first people that came to mind. They were together and nearby, Sora and Riku.

I'm adding horror into it. Hope it's a good addition. The plot shall slowly start to thicken. I really want reviews in order for me to continue, or else I'll just stop…so you know what to do!
