After exorcises, we play protect the pins. All the balls are in the middle, and the gym is separated into two sections. There is four pins for each team. since we are the new kid, we can pick which team we want. we all go to the right side of the gym. The whistle blows half the people run for the ball.
This isn't going to end well, we might expose ourselves as exorcists. There are no Akuma, but you never know who's on which side.' I think.
I linger in the back then slowly make my way to the front. Someone throws a ball at me, but I catch it, making them go out. I don't know what to do with the ball so I throw it at someone on the opposite team. I don't throw it too hard thank goodness. I hit them and they're out. I see a ball coming at me from the right. Unfortunately, adrenaline and instinct take over, I do a back-flip to avoid it. I land on my hands and I push my self back up like a ninja. Shit.
"HOLY CRAP!" someone yells.
"WHOA!" exclaims another.
"ARE YOU A FREAKING NINJA?!" screams another.
I fall back to the back of the room by Morgan.
"What was that?! We're not supposed to do things like that! We could be exposed!" whispers Morgan.
"It was only an instinct!" I whisper back.
"Well your 'instinct' could get us killed!" whispers Devyn.
Jenifer is in her own land while she bounces up and down.
"Don't worry, there are no Akuma." I say.
I stay in the back for the rest of the time, and this goes on for the rest of the hour. After the bell rings, the teacher calls me over.
"How did you do that?" she asks.
"I used to be in Gymnastics." I lie.
"Would you like to be a part of the gymnastics team here?" she asks.
"No thanks. I don't really do it anymore. It was just an instinct.
I head out of the gym, and there are people already asking me questions. Rumors spread like the flu.
"Do you wear contax?" someone asks.
"No. My eyes are naturally like this." I reply with my voice neutral.
"Are you a ninja?!" asks another.
"Do I look like one?" I ask rudely.
"Is that a tattoo?" another asks.
"No." I say.
"CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH?!" someone yells.
"Nope." I say.
The person who asked for my autograph, is now crying. I just smirk.
"Are those crosses on your hands? Are you emo?" another asks.
"No." I reply neutrally.
I am starting to get annoyed. And the noise just gets louder and louder.
"SHUT UP!" I yell, "Jeez my ears hurt."
Then I just pull up my hood and walk off. I take out Talwin, for no reason, and put her on my shoulder. Then my friends follow me. Devyn and I head for ELA. Devyn and I are last to get in. There are two Akuma in this class.
'Joy' I think.
"Oh, new students! What are your names?" she asks.
I let Devyn introduce herself and me again.
"OK please take a seat." she says.
We are being lectured on poems. I don't get poems, so I tune her out and look out the window. I see a raven start pecking at the window, looking straight at me. I look at it, and it gets madder. It then breaks the glass with one strong peck, and flies right toward my face.
"ACK!" I yell, as it attacks my face.
It particularly attacks my right, red-eye. I grab its and throw it out the window. That's when I notice a white spot on it's head, I can't tell what it was. That... thing scared the living daylights out of me. Devyn looks at me wide-eyed. The other half of the room is watching the bird fly out. The two Akuma are looking at me evilly.
"Are you OK?" the teacher asks.
"Y-yeah, I-I'm fine." I say, a little shaken up at what just happened.
"You need to go to the nurse." she says.
That's when I feel something go into my right eye. I put my hand on my eye then look at my hand. Blood. The raven has clawed me above the right eye. I then make my way, half blinded, to the nurse. When I walk in she is busy looking in a drawer.
"What is it, stomachache, headache?" she asks, without looking up.
Seems like she gets those two things a lot.
"A raven attack," I say, "I can't see in my right eye."
he looks up ad sees the blood running over my eye. This makes it hard to see if she is an Akuma.
"Oh!" she says. trying to wipe the blood off my face.
Soon all the blood has been wiped away, and it is no longer bleeding.
"Do you know what caused it to attack?" she asked.
"No all I remember was a raven was at the windowsill. I looked at it, then it broke the glass and attacked me." I reply.
"You probably wont be able to see out of your eye for a little." she says.
I open my eye and I can see perfectly, but it stings. At least I know she's not an Akuma. I close my eye when it begins stinging to much. When She was startled to see that it was a red color, and not the color of my left eye.
"Thank you. I'll be off now." I say.
"Wait, is your right eye supposed to be red?" she asks, as she puts on a large bandage that covers my whole eye.
"Yea, it has always been like that." I say and walk out.
After school ends, I go to my room, only to get tackled by a worried Jenifer and Morgan.
"WHAT HAPPENED?! WAS IT AN AKUMA?!" they ask, really worried.
"No, I'm fine. It was a stupid raven. It burst through the window and attacked me after I looked at it." I say.
"That was no ordinary raven then. Those window are bullet proof, and they are three inches thick." says Morgan.
"Now that I remember, there was a white thing on it's head. I don't know what it was though."
"I think we've been exposed." says Devyn.
Then it dawns on me.
"Lulubel." I say.
