I will gladly take in reviews, I won't take in the 'Please update' one. Don't want to be mean. I will take the 'I don't like this story or something.' It's your opinion and I will accepted that, just put it in nicely, I'm human like you and if you don't like it, that's okay.

….
It was a nice chilly day in the small town known as River Rook. The sky look almost grayish-blue due to the snow storm that is supposedly rolling in. Christmas was just around the corner and some kids were already on their Christmas break, but one school in particular doesn't let out till the 24 of December. The school is River Rook private school. Up on the third floor was a small class room of fifth graders watching a film. One student however wasn't watching the movie; instead she was reading a Steph King book. The girl heterochromia eyes slowly read the book; she was so deep within the book that she didn't hear the bell go off signaling that the school day was over and it the start of Christmas break.
"Miss Rose." A female voice said making the girl look up from her book, facing her teacher.
"Yes." Koko said with a monotone voice.
"Schools over dear, it's time to head home."
"Oh." Koko blink realizing that she was the only student in the class and everyone else is either in the halls getting their things or waiting for their friends. "Sorry about that, I must have been lost in the book to realize." She got up from her seat packing her stuff as her teacher just gave a small laugh.
"Its fine, Koko." The teacher leaned on the desk next to Koko's "Though I don't want to trouble you or anything, but have made any friends since the new school year started?"
"No I haven't." Koko said slipping her bag on her shoulders, walking over to the door "I just don't see the point on having friends. All they ever going to do are betraying you and leave you behind. And they'll get in the way of my studies." Koko then left the room not looking back at her teacher who had a concern look on her face.
"That girl…she really needs a friend."
††††††††††
"Hey sis! Wait up!" Koko stop in mid walk standing only a couple of feet from the gate. Turning around she saw her younger eight year old brother, running up to her. The boy was black hair just like Koko and orange eyes. Her brother, Max, is only two years younger than her.
"Max?" Koko said as her little brother stop in front of her panting, "What are you doing here? I thought you were heading to your friend's house for a while."
"I am." Max said looking up at his big sister with a smile on his, "I just wanted to catch you before you leave." Koko's eyes grew soft a small smile forming on her face.
"That so? Well thank you for coming to see me." She said giving her brother a hug, who hugged her back. "I'll see you later, Max." Koko patted his head then headed out of the gate. Max waved to her as she left, then ran back over to his friends.
While walking home from school, the wind began to pick up a bit causing Koko to shiver pulling her scarf up a bit. "I hate the cold." She mutters but then let out an 'ooff' when she bumped into someone.
"Oh, sorry about that young lady. I wasn't paying attention." An elder man said. Koko fixed her hair looking over at the man then over to his yard seeing some of his stuff out.
"Are you having a sale?" she said ignoring the man apologizes to her.
"Yes, I am." The man said, "Since Christmas is tomorrow and I need to get rid of somethings, I decided to do a small garage sale for today."
"How clever of you." Koko mutter under her breath, "Though I doubt anyone is likely to come." She bluntly said making the man to chuckle nervously.
"Yes, I suppose you are right, but you may never know." The man rubbed his beard deep in thought. "I know!" he snapped his fingers making Koko to look at him weirdly. "Tell me, young lady. Do you like playing video games?"
Koko blinked at him and again trying to process what he said, "Yes." She not one to deny that she is a gamer; even if she the top student in her school. The man smiled at her, taking something out of his pocket.
"Here, I want you to have this. As an apologize form me bumping into you." He put something in her hand. Koko looked down seeing an old game with writings written in marker 'Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask'. She raised an eye brow 'A Zelda game? I never played one of this. I wonder if I still have the DS for it.' She thought to herself putting the game in her skirt pocket.
"Thanks, I suppose." Koko said looking the other way and began to head into the woods, taking a short cut to her house.
"Goodbye then." The man said, well that's what it sounded like to her.

A soft breeze flew through an open window. A figure wearing a white hoodie stain with blood sat on top of a sleeping figure, sound asleep not realizing the danger the person is in. The man took out a sharp kitchen knife that was coated in blood, raising the knife in the air. The man was about to strike down till he felt something long and sharp placed on his neck. The blade was already drawing blood from the pressure that was being put on.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." Ben said in a dark voice glaring at the man. The man turns his head giving Ben a good view of his face. Black hair that went down to his shoulders, pale white skin. And if Ben was a normal person he would have freak out a bit from the man's face. The man had a smile carved on his face and his eyelids were missing, on a closer look Ben realized that he must have burned them off. "Who are you?" Ben growled.
The man slowly got off the bed, standing his ground. Ben did lower his sword keeping it pointed at the man. "I said, 'Who are you'?" Ben said again getting annoyed that the man hasn't answer his question and had try to kill his friend.
The man let out a low dark chuckle "The name's Jeff, elf boy." Ben's eye twitches at the nickname that wav giving to him.
"Well then 'Jeff', what were you trying to do to Koko?" Ben asked.
Jeff smile began to grow, if that's even possible, "I just wanted to help your friend to go to sleep!" Jeff charged at Ben in a fast speed, almost catching him off guard. Not having time to block it with his sword, Ben lean to the right to avoid the oncoming knife. Sadly, Jeff has quicker than Ben had expected and moved a little too late the knife had cut though his arm. Instead of blood only pixel where seen on the cut. Jeff looked at it in shock as the wound closed up.
"You shouldn't have done that." Ben growled quickly turning around swinging his sword down at Jeff who quickly blocks it with his knife.
"What the hell are you?!" Jeff demand trying to keep the sword away from him.
"I'm just a virus you can't get rid of." Ben flung Jeff's knife out of his handle quickly striking down at the man, who yelp in pain landing on his back. Ben made a move to strike down at Jeff's heart, but Jeff quickly rolled out of the way grabbing his knife.
"This isn't over elf boy." Jeff growled jumping out the window. Ben breathe heavily looking at the window, his body was tense. Movement made him snap his head towards the noise, only to see Koko shifting in her sleep her face facing him. Ben let out a shaky sigh putting his sword away, walking over to the window closing it shut and locking it.
He walked over to Koko's bed sitting on the edge looking down at her. He began to wonder why she hasn't woken up from the noise, but then realize that this girl has been up for five days straight so of course that this noise would be hard to wake a person up. He sighed looking at the mess in the room.
"Just when did the hunter….start protecting their prey?"

Deep in the forest, Koko sat on a rock listening to the river flow. Her right leg was pulled up to her chest, her right arm on the rock supporting her body. In her left hand was the game that was giving to her. Soft wind blew through the woods, and then soon followed by low ringing sounds in Koko's head.
"This world we live in…is nothing…but a …shitty game." Koko
