We are back with another chapter, this time joined by Blue Bird. Sorry for any grammar mistakes, I just woke up and decided to do this before I have anything to do. I will hopefully post at least two chapters a day, maybe one if I get busy.
Enjoy!
Chapter Three - Blue Bird (Jay)
Jay sighed under her breath. What Yellow said really hurt, and she understood that she apologized and meant it, but Jay couldn't get the memory out of her head.
The knife aimed at Pearl, but intercepted by Blue Bird, letting it hit her instead…
She shuddered. The thought replayed over again like a movie, not disappearing. She tried not to think about it as she reached her dorm and unlocked it with her key. Inside was a girl with an outstanding hairstyle. The hairstyle was almost like her eldest sister's, but it made almost a star shape. The dorm was all neat and lovely, as if the person already there knew of her arrival.
The girl, who looked older than her, turned her head, as she was sitting on a light blue couch. The girl had green eyes that dazzled and looked as if they glowed in the sunlight. She waved shyly and Blue Bird copied. This was the worst part, not knowing who you'll be roommates with.
"Greetings," the older greeted, snapping Blue Bird back to reality. "I am Nephrite, but you can also call me Centi." Blue Bird's response in turn was a nod of her head. Nephrite smiled.
"I am Blue Bird," she said in her quiet voice. She went over and sat down next to her roommate. She looked like she was wearing a jumpsuit. Maybe she went skydiving, Blue Bird thought.
"You look exhausted from the travel here." Nephrite noticed. Blue Bird replied with a shake of her head no. 'Okay, Just do whatever you want."
"I am going to walk around, get used to the area." She said before getting up and leaving. She closed and locked the door behind her.
Blue Bird wandered around, passing abandoned buildings with graffiti on them, tall, away buildings and dark alleyways, for quite some when she heard it; the shrill noise came from an alleyway. She had to investigate. She tried not to get sick at the mismatched smells that tumbled through her lungs and looked around. She heard the noise again, and lightly stepped towards it. In the dimmed sunlight, she could finally make out a form. Blue Bird realized that it was a puppy, a beagle, but that is not why she gasped and took a step back.
The beagle had only one eye.
Foreshadowing, ain't it? In the next chapter, we might find out who did the graffiti on the abandoned buildings and houses. I thought it would be cool if Blue and Nephrite were roommates because I always thought the latter would be quiet as a human. We will also learn, in upcoming chapters, Blue Bird's full story on what happened.
Hope you enjoyed!
