Chapter 1. Cross Academy


A girl named Sasha Green ran as fast as she could from that place. She had been living there for ten years and it brought nothing but pain. Sasha ran through bushes and trees to try and hide better. The plastic bag she was carrying flew back and froth, knocking against the wind.

She was starting to run out of breath and was getting really tired. Sasha stopped running and leaned against a tree to catch her breath. She didn't know where she was but anywhere was better then back

"There." Sasha was so tired; she laid on the ground, used her bag as a pillow and went to sleep.

~~~~~.~

Soon later two boys came walking by. One was a tall red head with a boredish look on his face and the other was a shorter blond boy looked had a smile on his face and his blue eyes twinkled as if he were a little kid waiting for a prank to he set off. Suddenly, one of them saw something in the bushes. He saw it was a sleeping girl.

"Hey, Hanabusa, come look at this." The tall, red headed boy called to the other. The blond boy looked over before walking over to him.

"What is it, Akatsuki?" The one known as Hanabusa asked, looking down.

"There is a girl sleeping over here." He answered, pointing. Hanabusa saw the girl and stepped through the bushes to kneel beside her. "Hanabusa." Akatsuki said warning tone. Hanabusa grinned up at the taller boy.

"Don't worry, Akatsuki, I just want to take a look." He said before he looked at the face of the sleeping girl. "I don't think she's a Day Class student. I haven't seen her before." He told Akatsuki as the red head walked over. Hanabusa stood and looked at Akatsuki.

"What should we do?" Hanabusa asked the other boy. Akatsuki rubbed his head, sighed and picked her up. The sleeping girl groaned a little, but didn't wake.

"Grab her bag and lets go; we'll take her to the Headmaster." He responded. The blond boy nodded as he bent down to pick up the bag. They then set out for Cross Academy.

As the two boys headed back to the school, Hanabusa looked through the girl's stuff. There was a teddy bear, a child's fairy tale book, some clothes and money. Hanabusa opened the cover of the book and saw writing on it. 'To Sasha, Love mom and dad.' He read before heclosed the book and looked at the girl, who was riding on Akatsuki's back.

'So this must be Sasha.' Hanabusa thought to himself. When they got to the school, they remembered something.

"Wasn't the Headmaster so post to help Yuki and Zero with patrol tonight?" Akatsuki asked. Hanabusa thought for a moment before he nodded his head up and down. Akatsuki sighed before he handed the girl to the shorter boy.

"I'm going to look for the Headmaster. You wait here and watch her; and don't do anything to her." He said as he walked off. Hanabusa sighed and laid the girl on the ground, and waited. Only a few minutes went by and he was getting very bored. He soon knelt beside the girl and started shaking her to try to wake her.

"Hey, wake up." he said in a gentle toned voice, shaking the girl a little harder.

~~~~~.~

Sasha started to wake up to the feeling of being shaked and thought she heard a boy's voice. Although that could have just been from the dream she was having. Yet, a moment later the voice came again.

"Akatsuki, she's waking up." Sasha propped herself up using her arms and looked around. Even thought it took a few minutes for her eyes to adjust in the dark, she instantly saw she was no longer sleeping by the tree she fell asleep by.

"Uh, where I'm I?" She asked out loud to herself. She did not know about the boy beside her.

"This is Cross Academy." They same voice replied again. Sasha turned her head to see a blond hair, blue eyed boy beside her. Sasha saw he was smiling at her in a charming, almost flirting way. She then heard foot steps and turned to see two others walking towards them. One was a boy and the other was a man with long pale brown hair in a ponytail.

"This is her, Kain?" The man asked and the boy nodded his head. The boy beside Sasha stood up and then held down a hand. Sasha felt uncertain for a minute but slowly took the hand and he helped her up. He then gave her the plastic bag.

"Thanks." She mumbled, taking the bag and hugging it to her chest. She then looked at the man how seemed a little confused and to frown slightly.

"Well, I want to talk with you, but we should first go inside. Aido, Kain, you two come with us." The older man said, waving a gesturing hand before he started to walk away.

'Who said I was going anywhere?' Sasha thought as she eyed the man. Never the less, she followed the man inside the school and to the office. The two boys followed close behind them.

"Well Ms...."

"Sasha Green." Sasha answered for him. The man smiled softly as he sat behind the desk and Sasha took a set opposite of him. Aido and Kain just stood.

"Well Ms. Green, as I've been told, you were found sleeping in the bushes not too far from this school. Could you tell my why." Sasha crossed her arms and kind of glared and the man, who was obviously the Headmaster.

"I don't have to tell you anything. I'm not a student here and I didn't come here on my own free will." She snapped as she glanced at the two boys as she said the last thing. The Headmaster seemed to be a little shocked by the way Sasha talked to him, but then smiled warmly.

"Of course you didn't. My I have a look in your bag?" The man asked, holding out his hand. At first Sasha didn't want him looking in the bag, but ended up giving it to him. The Headmaster smiled softly before he looked through the stuff before putting the bag on the desk. He was frowning at Sasha.

"Where were you running away from?" He asked a minute later. All three people in the room looked at Sasha, but she refused to answer. Instead she whispered,

"I'm never going back there. I can never go back." She whispered as small tears rolled down her cheeks. When the man saw this, he tensed slightly, thinking he caused her to cry.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you cry." He said and waved his arms anime style. Sasha sat up straight and rubbed her eyes. She didn't know she had been crying.

"I'm fine." She said with a little snappish audited in her voice. Sasha felt she was being stared at and turn to the two boys. As she did, Aido quickly looked away, looking slightly uncomfortable. The Headmaster sighed.

"Sasha, where were you planning to go?" He asked and Sasha shrugged.

"Anywhere is fine; as long as it is far away from that place." Sasha said in a soft, quiet toned voice. The man said nothing for a bit before he smiled again. Aido and Kain still say nothing and just stand there.

"Then how about staying here, that is until we figure out where you came from." The man offered and Sasha just looked down.

"I have no interest in school." She said quietly. The headmaster still smiled.

"That doesn't mean you can't stay here." He replied, still smiling. Sasha looked back up and sighed deeply, feeling her heart hurt a little bit.

'He wouldn't be so nice if he found out the truth about me.' she thought to herself. Yet she needed a place to stay, so she nodded an OK. The Headmaster seemed a little two happy and Aido smiled to himself. He had another girl to flirt with.

The Headmaster, followed by Aido and Kain, took Sasha to the dorm she would be staying in. When Sasha saw her room, she covered her mouth and tried her hardest not to cry. The room was beautiful. It reminded her of her room when she was three years old. Almost everything was different shades of blue and it was a single bed. The headmaster seemed glade with her reaction and gave her the room key. The headmaster was now gone and before the two boys could leave as well, Sasha stopped them.

"Thank you, Aido and Kain. If you hadn't of found me, they could have." She said and before ether Kain or Aido could asked who she meant by they she shut her door. Sasha leaned on the door, sighed and looked around the room again. She hadn't had her own room since she was five years old. She sighed once again. 'Anywhere is better then back there.' She thought as she climbed into the soft bed and feel into a nice deep sleep.
