Viva has been gone for a few minutes now, leaving Miss Famous Singer and I alone in the Nurse's Office. Neither one of us want to speak, so in the silence, I explored my surroundings as this is my first time being in this room. Who would have thought I would be here on the first day of high school though.

The nurse's office is a plain white room with the standard blueish green cabinets and counters, sitting at the very right corner, holding all sorts of tools and medicine. There is a bare desk at the entrance In the opposite direction of the cabinets that is cluttered with different kinds of papers and supplies. The room smells of mint and a tad bit of sweat. The nurse is absent, so I am only left with Miss Famous Singer in this quiet and blank room.

She is starting to doze off, out of I am guessing a mixture of boredom and exhaustion. I watch her slowly drift to sleep and I just lay there in bed, left with only my thoughts. I think back on what I can remember of the crash while in this peace and quiet.

Earlier when I came out of the bathroom I had seen the car heading towards someone and without thinking I just ran into the figure. I heard Viva scream so out of pure assumption I thought the figure was Viva, so I ran full speed ahead thinking I could save her from the full force of the car. Little did I know I would trip over my shoe laces, which somehow got untied. As well that I would wake up to find that the person I tried saving was not Viva, but Miss Famous Singer.

If I knew it was her I wouldn't have even tried to save her, but seeing her sleeping face now is making me think that saving her maybe was not such a bad idea. I guess I don't dislike her as much as I thought I did and maybe in the future we could get along. Which I didn't think was possible until about an hour ago.

I turned in the uncomfortable excuse for a bed and was again reminded of the soft shirt Viva gave me.

After Viva had left, I went to the bathroom in the nurse's office and changed into the ketchup free T-shirt that Viva gave me. It was a plain white athletic shirt with Collège Françoise Dupon written on it that you could get for ten dollars on the school website. I threw away my previous t-shirt, which was luckily not my favorite and grabbed my jean jacket which was on the floor when I woke up.

The noisy girl lying in the bed next to me began to snore loudly.

Not much of a princess in her sleep, is she.

I grabbed both ends of my pillow and shoved the pillow onto my head, trying to cover my ears from the noise. And with no avail, the snoring continued.

My thoughts go back and forth between waking her up and leaving her be.

I don't have to choose in the end because the lights go out.

I sit up in the bed for a few seconds to see if they would come back on, but nothing happens, so I got out of the cott and went to investigate.

I thought again about leaving or waking Miss Famous Singer in the nurse's office, but thinking about how annoyed she might be made me think against it, as I didn't think I would be away for too long.

I slid out the door, leaving the snoring girl behind and tiptoed down the hallway to explore.

I felt like I was in a horror movie where one of the supporting characters goes off and then gets attacked by the enemy.

It was completely silent and a few of the lights flickered on and off, not having enough power to stay at full force, but not willing to give up yet. I am walking sneakily down the hallway when the speakers begin to screech and after a second of confusion they turn on and start to commence, repeating the words "Stay in your classrooms and wait calmly for Cat Noir and Ladybug" over and over for a few seconds about 3 times. My ears were ringing from the loud screeching speakers when they went dead.

Cat Noir and Ladybug?

Over the loudness of the crying sirens I try to remember who these people are. I knew them from somewhere, but I couldn't identify where from or who they were.

The school gets darker as window blinds close and the school shuts down. I speed up my pace, putting my thoughts behind me and continue to my destination, my classroom. I was about a hallway away from my classroom and when I got there maybe I could get some information about what is going on. I round the corner to my class, entering out of breath as I was running most of the way, in a rush.

I cringe as a mound of students about pounce on me, but they all pause in their tracks, realizing that it's just me. Every student stands in a defence stance with books, chairs, or any sharp object that they could get their hands on.

"I almost slashed the hell out of you!" Viva exclaims in a whisper as she swings her scissors around for more emphasis. "Good thing that we didn't block the door quite yet, otherwise someone might have gotten stuck out there." Snickers Lea as people grab desks and start stacking them against the door. "Yeah." Some others murmur through the class.

"What is going on?" I query in all this confusion.

Everyone just looks at each other, no one seeming to know themselves what is going on.

"Who's Cat Noir and Ladybug?" Someone out of the crowd shouts. The whole class goes off into a tiny flurry of whispers, but is then shushed by Lea who climbs to the top of a table.

"We all need to stay calm right now, Mrs.Duval has left everything to us and she said to stay quiet, so we are going to do as she instructed and smash the shit out of anyone who steps through that door!" She shoves her finger at the door. "Now, who is with me!" She yells out, raising the momentum.

The class goes off in a fury, sounding like a loud party. Lea freaks out and starts putting her finger to her mouth, shushing people to lower their voices.

Lea has always been good at getting an audience attention and keeping it. It is something she will always be wonderful at, especially with her spunky attitude and calming atmosphere. She has also always been good at tuning out her nerves, doing well during a stressful situation.

"We need to be quiet."

The room goes silent and I swear you can hear the door give a tiny screech.

Sam weaves through the many people over to me, holding my things in his right hand and a dictionary in the other. He transfers my bag over.

"Your bag is so light, I don't understand how you can have so little, especially on the first day of school. My bag is full of crap that I probably won't even use for school." Sam comments.

I hold my bag in my hands and watch as it deflates from lack of support.

That's strange, I swear I put four journals in my bag for each subject and eight folders for each of my classes.

I zip my bag open to find that all my stuff is gone except for a black box with bloody red shiny designs all over the top. It's the size of any average jewelry holder for something like a bracelet. I grab hold of the box and crack the lid, inside lies a ring that is covered in the color silver. It looks simple, nothing cool about it, just a ring made of sterling with four claws on top that hold nothing but a plating of silver that is the same color as everything else on the ring.

I reach to put the ring on my finger when the door slams agape, causing the desks that were piled up on the door to fling outwards. Several of my classmates clash with the desks and all hit the ground with a thud. I don't watch what happens afterwards as almost everyone still standing flicks their heads to the door to see the cause of this destruction.

A girl stands on the other side of the door and

she has a wicked grin plastered on her face. The girl steps through the door as if she owns the place and moves her hands behind her back to grab something that I can't see.

"You know I was going make a more quiet entrance, but I got so excited when I heard you guys being so loud. I simply just had to make a dramatic entrance as I am going to kill you." She says casually as she grabs what she was looking for and reveals a gun.

We all get prepared to throw our self defense objects at the girl and she gets in a stance, about to shoot, but something thrashes her backwards.

A few shots go off in the confusion, but hits nothing but a wall. The girl collides with the railing that circles the second and third floor hallways and she groans in pain. She dropped the gun a couple feet away from herself, at the door, after the bullets left the gun.

A long thin black string unravels from the girls body and in a swish of red, another girl in a red suit with black polka dots, appears from the sky, swinging onto the hallways floor. She looks like a ladybug with brown hair and milky chocolate eyes and she stands in a confident stance, unfazed by any of this.

Wait, ladybug.

"Ladybug!" Viva calls out from the clump that we have made in the classroom.

The ladybug girl responds with a smile, but pauses when the villainous chick comes back to her senses and attacks again.

The girl lunges and I watch as she transforms into another entity, a wolf.

I am now rushing to the door as I watch the wolf reel back to give a huge chomp on Ladybug's right leg.

The whole world is spinning and I don't know why I am moving, I didn't command my legs or any of my body parts to move. The wolf charges and...

Authors Notes:

So, I haven't written in a long time and this was something that just didn't work out because of time and school. I might never continue this series, but I hope that from what people can see, that they can still enjoy it. I will be posting my last chapter besides this one the same day. Both of these pieces of work were never edited because my editor got busy with her things as well. Since I already had them written I thought it would be good to just post them. So, more than likely this story will never continue even though I had good hopes. Anyways, thank you to anyone that has read this.
