Author's Corner: Hey, people! I don't know if you like my story or not, but I really don't care if you don't like it! MUAHAHAHA! Sorry about that….lol. Well, here is the second chapter. I am SOOOOO sorry for not updating sooner! Sorry!

Chapter 2

"Rose? Please take your hood off." said Mrs. Hertz, back to her normal grouchiness.

Rose went up to the teacher and whispered something into her ear. When the teacher pulled her face back up, she had on a sympathetic look on her face.

"Well, you may be excused from taking off your hood, then."

All the students were confused. Why didn't she take off her hood? Better yet, why didn't she want to? It was only the beginning of the school year, September fifth, and it was very hot out, so why would she keep a hood on? Those where the questions running through the four Lyoko children's' heads.

"Will Rose Levine please report to my office?" said Mr. Delmas through the loud speaker. There were shouts of "Oh's!" and "On her first day, too!" All the young girl did was get up and started walking out the door. The lyoko kids could already sense a troubling vibe coming off her.

"Well, I think I'm going to make friends with her." Whispered Aelita.

"Are you crazy!" Jeremy basically screamed at her, as he was a little scared of the new girl.

"No, I'm just being polite!" Aelita said and turned away from him. 'Gawsh, what did I do?' thought Jeremy. The new girl re-entered and went up to the teacher and said, "The principal just said I have my three end-of-the-day classes in 10th grade (A/N they are all in 9th grade, minus Yumi)." she said in a barely audible whisper, but, thankful for them, they were close to the teacher's desk.

"Okay, dear, now please have your seat." Miss. Hertz went on droning about the ecosystem, whilst Odd and Ulrich feel asleep.

"Aelita, I'm sorry, I'll go up with you to meet her." said Jeremy, desperate for a sense of forgiveness.

"Really?" said Aelita, her face brightening up.

"Sure, we'll go at lunch" he said, a little unsure of himself. Aelita almost shouted out in joy. She couldn't wait to have a new friend! The bell rang, the teacher gave all the students their homework, and the new girl was the first one out.

"Come on, Jeremy! You said you'd come with me!" she said in an over-exasperated voice.

"Ok! I'm coming!" Then Yumi made her way over to them.

"Hey guys, did you meet the new girl yet? I didn't." she said in a sad tone. Ulrich went and slipped his arms around his girlfriend's waist from behind her.

"Hey." he said simply, smiling at her as she smiled back.

"Yeah, we met her, and she's really punkish. She was wearing almost all black!" Odd yelled.

"YES!" yelled Yumi. Everyone stared at her.

"What, I finally get to meet a true punk!" Everyone just chuckled and started walking to the lunch room. When they got there, it seemed as though the only two people talking were Sissy and Rose.

"….look, just because you're the principle's daughter doesn't mean you're cool!" they heard Rose say as they walked in.

"Yes it does! I'm way cooler than you, you have no friends!"

"Well, of course I have no friends, I've only been here for 5 hours, you've been here for years and years and you only have two!" she said and everyone burst out laughing. With that, Rose walked out of the lunch room.

"HAHA, she's good!" said Odd. With that they sat down to eat lunch and Jeremy said "We'll meet her later..."

I'm soooo sorry I didn't update sooner! I feel so guilty! And thanks to all who reviewed, if you review every chapter, I might just mention you! You guys Rock!
