Chapter 6

There was a red truck driving at hight speed. It couldn't stop. It swerved and hit the boy with green eyes. The boy fell to the floor, and slept an eternal dream in a pool of blood

In most cases, fast healing was like cherry on top of the cake. In this case, it just screwed everything up.

" Let go of me!" I snapped and yanked my arm away from Aiden's grasp. I hid my eyes from his hard gaze and stepped away from him.

Oh god..Why did i just do that? Silently, I cursed, still trying to remember what had happened back there. There was an urge in my body that pulled me to my actions- and I couldn't control it. I had just saved Aiden, and i didn't know why.

" How did you do that?" His troubled voice caught my attention. I fisted my hands in my pocket and fought to find an excuse.

" Do what?" I asked innocently.

" You were at the other side of the road, how did you-" I cut him off.

" I wasn't, I was right next to you. Don't you remember?" I was lying.

" But I saw-" This time, it wasn't me who cut him off. We heard the loud engine of the truck shut off. A door slammed shut and a frightened, awkward, and nervous voice rang out, drawing both our attentions.

" Oh gosh! Oh dear! Deary! Are ya'll all right! Oh dang it! This is even worse than when Cousin Betsy ate the last peice of pie!" The voice came from a man who came out of the large truck. In denim overals, he had quite a large built. A belly like santa clause and a face as round and red as apples. His southern accent was strong, almost exaggerated. He looked from me to Aiden to his truck. Fear and guilt was painted all over his face.

" Oh dear! I hope ya'll are alright! My driving is terrible! Aunt Petunia has always said so! I was trying to get to the farm- you know what they say the early bird gets the worm!" I faked a smile while I fought the temptation of ripping his head off. . He was talking so much I felt like my head was going to explode. I cleared my throat and stepped back from Aiden, feeling deep and cold chills brush across my skin as his eyes looked at me once more. I turned to the southern man, but before I could open my mouth to speak, Aiden had beaten me to it.

" Oh no, we're fine.." He glanced at me. " I think."

A worried expression drew on both their faces and Aiden's lips tugged at an uneasy smile. The man began to fidget with his fingers.

" We're fine. Nothing is wrong here. " I turned to glare at Aiden. " Absolutely nothing."

" Oh please! Call me Billy! And hey why don't I give ya'll a ride to school! It'll be my apolog-"

"NO!" Aiden and I both said at once.

Billy's bright smile began to fade, and Aiden spoke up.

" I mean, we're fine- really. The school is only a couple blocks away- and remember, you have to get the farm." He said.

" Oh don't be silly! There will be other days in the good ol' farm! Come on, come on! In ya go!" He pushed at both of us, shoving us into the back of his heated truck. Aiden was in first and i came last. Billy kept mumbling things about the chickens not worry about him as he closed the car door.

The back of his truck was stuffy, messy and most of all- hot. I could feel wetness begin to caress the small of my back, iritating me so much. I kicked at the Subway wrappers on the carpet and moved towards the door, avoiding Aiden and his drawing gaze. Neither of us spoke, silence drew among us like a straight line. The humidity of the truck didn't bother me, The only thing bothering me here- was Aiden.

" Keira, I know what i saw." He said, his voice sounding demanding for once. But that demanding voice, I realized, was touched with the slightest spark of shyness. I moved my body just a bit, and twitched when my foot landed on a half eaten tuna sandwich on the floor. I kicked the sandwich to the side, and moved to look at him, catching the unsureness in his eyes and tension of his lips.

This time, I didn't hesitate.

" You saw nothing. You will forget this ever happened, I was right beside you when the truck came, I pushed you away. " I hissed and watched as his expression begin to change, his face loosening up and his eyes almost darkening. His pulpils were opening up, reading to swallow up all the lies I was carving into him. I was toying with his mind, erasing images and replacing them with lies. I could feel my control over him, taking away the things that shouldn't matter, the things that he shouldn't remember.

His mind was under my string now, he can't escape.

It only took a second for his mind to be replaced. I took my control off of him and sat back on my seat, pretending like nothing had happened.

" You were right beside me." Aiden whispered, breaking from his trance.

" Yes." I agreed.

" I'm sorry, it must have been my imagination." He said.

When Billy finally stepped into the driver seat and turned on the engine, I laughed slightly, forgetting i ever tried to save Aiden's life. When the truck began to move, I whispered.

" You have quite an imagination, Aiden."

" Keira...I'm sorry there's no last name here." The teacher- Mr. Davis- was tapping his pen on the attendance sheet while searching the room for me.

" I am here, and you don't need to know my last name" Mr. Davis looked straight at me and smiled- which was a first. Every class, the teachers asked me the same question, wondering why my last name wasn't registered. I would have thought it was pretty easy to understand. I never registered my last name. Why? Because it wasn't it wasn't necessary. It never was, and will never be.

" Very Well Keira, and welcome back." He smiled at me again and I looked away to avoid it. This wasn't natural for me.

" Okay, Gillion Lennox?"

" Here." The voice came from a girl with shoulder length blond hair and a petite build.

" Ash...Obama?" Mr. Davis' voice began to twist with confusion and humour.

" Heh Heh, yea that's right, that's my last name- I meen it's not Red- OW!" The boy- Ash- stopped his rambling the moment a brunette beside him smacked him on the arm.

" Mary-Lynnette Carter"

" Uh..uh..present."

Mr. Davis was continuing with his attendance as I rested my head against the table. This was a short class, but it didn't matter, sleep was still sleep. This time, I was hoping I wouldn't see my brother again.

And I didn't.

************************9

( Aiden POV)

" You pupils are in your 11th year, i shouldn't have to treat you all like children." said Ms. StalForce, my homeroom teacher. I had arrived to homeroom a little later than everyone else but explained to Ms. Stalforce of what happened earlier. Ms. Stalforce didn't quite believe that I almost got hit by a car, but she still marked me down as being late.

" I have utterly no tolerance for goofing off, free speech when ever you feel like or any misbehaviour." Ms. Stalforce spat every word out harshly, as if they were meant to attack each and everyone of us. I could see that the whole class didn't dare to say a word- or even move a muscle. But beside me, I was surprised to see that the shyest girl in my homeroom raised her hand to speak.

" M-Ms. Stalforce, i was just wondering..-" The girl hadn't meant to stop half way through her sentence, but Ms. Stalforce shot her a glare the moment she began talking. The girl quickly tore her eyes away from Ms. Stalforce,

" And for those who choose to speak freely, can speak to me after class in detention." The entire class shifted uncomfortably in their seats as Ms. Stalforce began to talk about discipline again.

This class, which was supposed to be the shortest of the day, seemed like it would never end. Every time some girls tried to whisper to one another or flirt with some guys, the teacher would catch them. It was kinda creepy how it happened. When the bell finally rang, I felt my heart begin to beat again. I couldn't wait to leave the class.

" Wait! Aiden, I need you to stay behind." Ms. Stalforce hissed form across the room. I had been halfway out the door when she called me out. I froze in place and allowed he other students to go. Some of them looked at me with smirking smiles and others just told me good luck. When the last of the class left the room, Ms. Stalforce turned to look at me.

" Aiden." She simply said.

" Yes?"

" Today is your first day here, isn't it?" It was a simple question.

" Uh..yes. I jus-" Ms. Stalforce unexpectedly cut me off.

" Have you met anyone new so far..? Someone... dark?" Her question was so odd. No, i haven't met anyone dark. I didn't even understand what she meant by that. Someone evil? Was she talking about complexion? Some with dark hair?

" Uh..i don't think so..?"

" Aiden, be careful." Her voice turned timid.

" What? Be careful of w-" she cut me off again.

" You don't understand how serious this is. Stay away from her, and them. You may not understand what I'm talking about now, but soon. Soon you will." Ms. Stalforce was walking towards me with her hands swinging as she talked. Her words were confusing. I didn't understand who and what she was talking about.

" I know you don't understand now, Aiden. But just trust me, and stay away from her." It was then that Ms. Stalforce pushed me out of her class and shut the door. I hadn't realized it, but the hall was empty. Weather the bell had rung or not, i was completely clueless. I quickly pulled my schedule out of my pockets and scanned for my next class. It was science 11.

I realized that I was already late enough, I decided to worry about what Ms. Stalforce said to me later. I sprinted quietly to my next class, which just so happened to be in the Mini School. The mini school was a school within the school. The Mini was for really smart kids who excelled in their academics. There, they have more opportunities. You could said it was AP classes crammed into a little house. When i got there, i realized that everything in the Mini was, well, mini. The lockers were little, and so was the gym. I found my class in no time.

When I arrived at the door, everyone in the class turned their attention to me. The teacher had stopped talking, and the class fell silent. It was awkward what had just happened, but the teacher's voice shattered it.

" Hello." The teacher was a woman, and she was extremely pretty.

" Sorry, I, um. Got a bit lost." I apologized under my breath.

" It's fine, we get alot of late students on the first day of class- Isn't that right Jez?" She playfully raised her voice to a girl in the back row. " If i'm not mistaken, you must be Aiden."

" Yea." Taking one quick glance around the classroom, I realized that there was only one seat left.

" Alright, We're just about to start. Why don't you sit there..next to James." She gestured to a boy in the third row. I made my way to my seat and was immediately greeted by James.

" Nice, man, you arrived 2 seconds before i did."

" The Mini's pretty trippy." I said. " Hi, I'm Aiden"

He stuck his hand out for a handshake, and as i took his hand, he said.

" James, James Rasmussen."

So that's it. I hope you enjoyed and it and please Review!
