Cherub: Heart of ice
Chapter one: School
Heads up: I do not own the idea of cherub, nor many of those characters in it. Only the new characters are my own.
A cold wind whipped around Chylo, harsh and chilling, ripping through the outer layer of her coat, and past her jumper. Past the last line of defence, and into her skin, chilling her to the very bone. Rain fell from the sky, plastering her cropped black hair to her forehead, as she waited for the school bus. The bus of humiliation and doom, on which everyday something terrifying and horrible always happened. So far Chylo had avoided such ridicule. Coming from the rough end of town had its advantages.
Eventually after her coat was near the end of its teether, and had begun to let through the dampness, the sound of the buses loud, spluttering engine came from around the cornor. Abadoning her post against a moss covered wall, worn with time she moved to the edge of the street, and waited, as it ripped around the cornor, coming to a screeching halt a few meters down from her. Sighing she moved down towards it.
Soaking wet, dripping water behide her she climbed up the metal stairs of the bus, carefully as not to slip. Her hand gripped the rail, until she reached the top. Nodding as way as greeting to the driver she took her usual seat at the front of the bus. The safest place, that she had secured through cruelty and selfish acts.
The warmth seeped through her coat, as she sat there, amusing herself with the puddles of dirty water the bus speed through, soaking unlucky passerbys. Through she felt sorry for one of the one children they had passed, it would proberly have made no difference to how wet they could be. During in her musing the bus came to its usual screechy halt outside the grey bricked building that was her school.
Trailing with the rest of them she made her way grumpily into the building and to her form room, upon which she discovered her form were up to their usual tricks. It seemed the impossing nature of Mr. Darley was absence for the day, and thus the substitute would have a terrible time. She almost felt sorry for them. Taking her seat, she relaxed against the plastic of the chair, and shoved her feet in the table. Of course she was going to join in. Everybody needed a bit of time to have fun, and this was hers.
The day past with little events, Kevin egged the heads car, and got dragged away to the office, Catty graffited the girls loos, and Edge got into a fight, but that was the course of a normal day. All that was left was the last lesson of the day. Physical education. Never a good lesson to be in, turning from a soft game into a brutal fight at any time, during any activity.
Chylo's eyes glittered with the anticipation of PE. It was among her favourite lessons, much for its unprediciveness, much like that of her Gemini nature. Her kit lay over her, blue joggers, and a plain t-shirt, damp from the morning rain. Her hair finally having dried out was tied behide her head, for once following the rules. Yet it was more for her own protection, it was normally her that caused the fights in PE.
Ok sorry to stop here, but they'll be more to come so please keep reading and tell me what you think.
