On the wall mounted clocks of Brenton High the time read 6:52. The students who took an early class were arriving alone or in small groups and were moving to their designated classrooms. Those with companions discussed what they had done and eaten over the Thanksgiving break.
The rest of the students and school faculty would arrive for the normal school schedule which began at 8 o'clock sharp.
The begginning would be annouced by a loud bell.

Mark hadn't had time for his morning cigarette. He peevishly unlocked the chain to the school's pick-up circle to allow the steadily growing line of buses room to filter into. He sighed in unison with the release of auto driven steam and watched the students pile out in small droves. There were less then normal; it was probable that many of them were still on their vacation clocks.
He thought about closing the gates at the back of the last buss, but as the December morning chill crept up the back of his poncho, he decided against it. He knew the cold had toughened up the old metal gears in the gate and watching their unfavorably secure stance, he decided any driver who wanted to be stuck behind a wall of buses was welcome as far as we was concerned. Instead he got back on his little bicycle and road to immerse himself within the crowd of potential trouble makers.

Rushing across the street Ky, who began to wonder if she wasn’t running late, removed her sandals so she could walk even faster. Cutting across the lawn she squeaked lightly, not realizing the morning dew was still clinging to the blades of grass. The bottoms of her jeans were moist, her feet freezing from the sudden change in temperature.
Ky cut across another lawn, this time her feet were numb from the cold and it didn’t bother her. Coming to the sidewalk she dropped her sandals and slipped them on, her left foot giving her problems. Grumbling she dropped her bag and hopped on one foot to get the brown shoe of annoyance on. Once she completed her goal she dashed across the street, the cursed loudly as she ran back to get her bag.
The school was just up ahead but Ky’s bubbly attitude had turned dark as she grumbled some more.

Damien yawned as he turned around the corner in his white GTR. The turbo charged engine humming as he paced the car down towards the campus. Seeing a figure in the distance to the die darting across yards he smirked with amusement.
Stopping at the intersection that the girl so blind fully had raced to and from forgetting her bag. Giving off a slight chuckle he rolled down his window and called out towards the girl. "would you like a ride" he smiled kindly to her.

Ky crossed her arms over her chest, the zipper of her jacket grinding into her skin. Her nose twitched as she glanced down and realized that her skin was flawless.
As usual.
A voice broke her from the stupor she was in and her head flipped up, blonde strands racing across her face and tickling her nose. Blinking a few times she glanced around her, noticing no one else she glanced back at the boy in the car.
"Uh, sure." She smiled warmly at him, her feet inching towards the car.

Damien reached over the seat pulling the door handle and pushing it open. After pulling his hand away he ran it through his blond hair pushing it from his eyes. he waited for her to reach his car and start to take her seat "My names Damien Kavoid... you are?" he asked kindly as he moved the car into gear, not pressing the gas yet.

Ky dropped her bag on the floor of his car and sat down in the seat. A relaxing feeling entered her bones as she rested in the seat and closed his door. Pulling her seat belt over her shoulder she smiled.
"My name is Klarissa Bast." She tugged at the strap lightly before looking at Damien again. "But you can call me Ky!" Her hands fell into her lap shyly as she glanced out the window, then a thought hit her and she giggled lightly.
I wonder how much of my tantrum he saw...

Terry spent the whole buss ride staring at the back of the seat in front of him. All the time though he probably never saw the cracking polyester or heard the lewd comments of his brother sitting next to him. Sure he was exhausted, but deeper thing bubbled inside him. He thought, 'nuts I should be dead; I should have died last night... No, I should have been at church last night. Freaking, it was Thanksgiving Mass! What the hell was I doing...'
Agonized in his own mind, he didn't notice when the buss stopped at school. It took his brother to actually bump him before he really saw anything at all. Feeling stupid, he got up, grabbed his bag, and rushed down the aisle after the other students. The whole while his strange pendant bumped along against his chest. The chain stood to him now as a reminder, but it was not the only souvenir he took from last night's adventure. Apparently he'd caught a cold while dieing in the street.

The note read
"Hey Shiloh, Have a wonderful day back to school! Well I left this to remind you that I won't be home 'til late tonight. A few of the nurses are going out tonight, so I left you dinner in the fridge. Just heat the plate for 5.30 minutes. Sorry we can't hang out >.< Love Mom"
After the teenage boy in fashionly faded jeans and a heavy olive jacket finished reading the note on the refridgerator door he opened it to see what was for dinner. Eww peas... Shiloh made a mental note to pick up something to eat on his way home from soccer practice.
A small beeping sounded from Shiloh's wrist and he instinctively looked down at his watch. It was time to go. Walking over to the couch he grabbed his black back pack, threw up his hood and then walked outside into the brisk December morning.
Then he made the mistake of getting into his car.

Mark itched to smoke. His bare hands were cold and wet against the metal handle bars and now he hunched low over the bicycle because while he was off even the seat collected icy dew for the crotch of his pants to collect. It was barley seven yet and the early classes were probably just now meeting. Of course it was the first day back so kids would talk and run late in the halls and they're teachers would all let it slide. Then of course there were the poor suckers who had to be here for early classes when they didn't have any; all because there was only one buss that they were scheduled to catch. It'd be a long hour until eight when all the kids would be in class and the cig could warm his hands and his insides.
He watched them all going to class and he felt what they did. Bits of how they were effected him self on the inside. He knew which ones were worried or excited with out even looking, but he pushed that out. Instead he focused on their persons, their phones and there cars. He could see some punk pull 'round the corner with the GTR he probably got as some early Christmas present. Every one had something new and fashionable and at first he just snorted at it all, but then he got to thinking, 'Could I have ever had stuff like that as a kid.' Which of course lead to 'Would my son have...' but Mark pushes that out too, and his watering eyes freeze back over under the hood of his poncho.

Taylor Hayashi turned the key to his class room and stepped inside. He took a deep breath of warm air as he escaped the frigid cold outside. The cold is coming early this year. As the 25 year old teacher pulled off his coat he looked up at the clock on the far side of the room.
It read 7:34.
Mr. Hayashi walked over to his desk and reached into his messenger bag. When he withdrew his hand he held a stack of graded papers the students had written with the topic: "Motives". That one on Revenge was quite good, the teacher thought as he remembered reading the essays over the break. A smaller peice of paper fell from the larger papers and onto the floor as he set them down on the desk. Pushing his black hair out his eyes as he bent over, Taylor picked up the small photograph. It was a picture of him with his favorite two girls in the whole world.
He smiled.

Damien waited till she was safely seated in the car before pressing the gas. The car slowly began its momentum as it began to roll down the early morning streets. Shifting the car from 1st to 2nd just by hear, he smiled. This was his baby, his joy from the everyday life he had. Turning his head towards Ky he asked "So what year or yeah? Sophomore, junior?" he asked kindly as they turned onto the main road that Brenton high was off of.

"Senior actually." Ky smiled at Damien as they turned towards Brenton High. Her eyes roamed the car itself, taking in every detail. She smiled at Damien, flipping some strands of hair over her shoulder.
"Which year are you?" Her teeth showed slightly through her lips. Her feet were slowly starting to hear up and the goosebumps along her arms were starting to go down. She rolled the sleeves of her jacket back down her arms, and cocked her head as she noticed it was just a little too big for her. Shrugging slightly she returned her attention to the boy who had offered her a ride.

"Oh, sorry, the main reason that people walk to school is usually cause they are two young to drive or just don't have there license yet, sorry to assume" He was a little embarrassed but decided to try and look past it for now. "yeah I'm a senior as well." he glanced at her briefly as they pulled into the line of cars waiting to get into the parking lot. "let me ask you? Did you really need to ask what year I was after hearing my name?" he laughed lightly "I mean I'm not trying to sound air headed, it's just really rare to meet someone who doesn't know who I am once they hear my name." As the cars before him sat still, his engine humming smoothly in neutral he turned to her "really, if thats true thats awesome then" he gave one last smile to her before turning back to the road as the cars began to move again.

"I'm sorry, but I've never heard of you." Ky smiled sheepishly. "Are you famous?" She felt slightly embarrassed, her cheeks were starting to burn and she looked out the wind shield.
Her hands played with themselves as she sat there. "And here I thought I was caught up with all the current events." She smiled to herself, a light giggled escaping her lips. She looked up at Damien for a moment, but still didn't get a spark of recognition. "Should I be afraid of random screaming girls jumping you when we get out of the car?" She smiled, holding in laughter as her eyes twinkled lively.

he laughed at her final comment as his car slipped into the back road that lead to the teachers lot. " normally that could be possible but thats why I park back here" Slowly pulling into an open space by a tree and listening to the car hum for a few seconds before pulling the keys from the ignition.
"I've been the schools quarterback for the football team, pitcher in baseball, center in basketball and even played and helped promote the roller hockey club. hehe" he smiled as he opened his car door putting his left leg out onto the ground "Not to seem to brag but just in case your more of the book kids here then the sport type, i'm in the top 5 highest GPA students at this campus."
He climbed out from his, reaching into the back he grabbed two binders before closing his door, waiting for his passenger.

Ky smiled as she opened the car door. Grabbing her bag she stretched her legs before standing up. "You seem to be a very active guy. Don't tell me you're a super hero in your spare time right?" She giggled to herself. Closing the door she checked her apperance in the window, wrapping the jacket around her body tighter before looking up.
"If you have any spare time." She glanced at the school, realizing that this would be her first time here. "Thanks for the ride Damien. I really appreciate it!" She smiled at him again, her book bag weighing on her shoulder.

Damien laughed in his mind to her super hero comment Kinda he raised the keys and locked the door as they stepped away and moved closer to the campus. "The ride wasn't a problem, it was on my way" he held his two binders under his left arm loosely. Running his hand through his hair to move it from his brow "are you... new hear, I mean your a senior yet I dont think I have ever seen you the last 3 years..."

"and then when you get Illidan to 60% there a fourth phase and it's a..." Shiloh tuned out the full detailed hour long fight against the 25 man raid boss in WoW. 24 years old and that game still takes the life out of people. Shiloh had chosen the wrong route to school, so he and his friend Tom were stuck in stop and go traffic. They were going to be 20 minutes late....at least 20 minutes....
Shiloh...
"What?" Shiloh turned to Tom who was still deep into full on nerd talk. "What? A circle of healing priest?" Tom said to his obviously confused friend. "It's a priest that...." "Nevermind" Shiloh said and tuned Tom out again. He could have sworn he heard someone say his name. A girl's voice? Ugh I'm going insane. Shiloh looked at the dashboard clock.
He sighed. 7:52

"Uh, yeah." She walked alongside him. Her feet moving forwards reluctantly. "I mean I've lived here for awhile, but this is my first time at the High School." Ky grabbed the strap of her bag and moved it back closer to her neck. There were six books resting on her shoulder, she didn't know if she'd need them or not, but they were good reads.
"I'm originally from Egypt." She looked down at her pale hands. "Not that it shows." Ky smiled up at him.

"Egypt huh? he remarked as he looked to her pale skin "yeah I would of imagined your skin to be darker. How did you wind up in the states? if you dont mind me asking" His feet began to move in pace with hers.
He checked his cell phone real fast to check the time. Then turning back to her with a soft smile.

"My parents died while excavating a temple in the desert." She glanced at the buildings around her, wondering how her classes were going to turn out. "So our butler moved me here to the states. He home schooled me for the last few years, but I figured for my last semester I should try public school."
Her shoulders shrugged gracefully as she grinned up at him. Her sandals smacked against the bottoms of her feet and filled the silent walk way they treaded upon.

"oh... sorry" Damien found himself lost in words. he didn't know or have even a clue what to say to that. i mean sure, this wasn't the first time where death was mentioned, i mean death was all around him.But to talk to someone to just get to know them and leading to that was a little... different.
"My mom died when she was giving birth to me, I dont even have a single photo of her..." he paused for a second "My dad has raised me sense... well I should say my Father's sitters have raised me sense."
Thinking now back to his sports and high grades "Bread to perfection is how he describes me to his clients... wow, I feel like a trophy with him, nothing more. Not a son, just bragging rights."

Ky's eyes drooped sadly, her hand reaching out to touch his arm in comfort. "I'm sorry Damien, that is a worser fate than mine." She removed her hand and continued walking down the path. She moved the tote bag from her left shoulder over to her right, moving her long hair out of the way.
"I don't suppose you know where I can pick up my schedule do you?" She wanted to change the subject, some memories were best kept locked inside.

His mind had blanked out as his eyes stared ahead. For him time seemed to keep still, endless. He shook his head as he came back into focus "what, oh yeah sorry. Schedule, the counselors office I would half to assume. Come on I'll show you the way." he smiled to her as he began walking taking the first step into the lead.

It was bound to happen on the first day back from break; five minutes until the beggining and only 12 out of 33 students had arrived.
"Hello Mr. Hayashi," A bubbly blonde walked into the class room.
13 isn't much better... Taylor looked up from his desk, "Hi Ashley. On time! I can't say I'm not surprised. Where is Damion?"Ashley always is hanging on that boy's arm. "Oh come on Mr. Hayashi!" Ashley squeeled, "Where's the faith?! And I haven't seen Damion yet, but I will!" she laughed as she walked over to her desk.
Taylor shook his head with his lips in a smile. He looked back down to his desk. A new student in first period? There was a small slip of paper with a pale girl's face on it. Ooh, an Egyptian.

"Ah," She followed after Damien, completely enthralled with everything going on around her. The campus seemed to pick up a little as they got closer to the heart, she was expecting boys and girls to come running out of no where and jumping Damien.
But her smile stayed in place as they continued on. She was glad no one was bothering them, yet, she wasn't sure how great she would be in a social setting. But like her father always said. There's no time like the present. Another giggle escaped her lips as her feet stepped on the ground at the same time as Damien, her friend.

He tried to keep it as desecrate as possible but if she happen to notice. Damien was doing the best he could not avoid the larger groups of people. Walking tightly along the open halls, going behind planters and taking paths that had plenty of tree or bush covers. He knew being back on campus from the break would attract people.
Finally making it to the counselors office. Looking around he noticed a very familiar group of girls that loved to make themselves noticed. Quickly he spun into the office grabbing ky's hand and pulling her in before the group had a chance to see them.
"here we are" he smiled looking up to the clock, class was gonna start soon.

Ky wasn't expecting the twirl and nearly crashed into Damien as he pulled her into the office. Regaining her balance she smiled up at him. Maybe no one was jumping him because he was trying to be descrete. She straightened out her clothes before stepping towards the counter.
"Hi, my name is Klarissa Bast. I'm here to pick up my schedule." She smiled widely at the woman. "It's my first day!" The woman behind the counter didn't seem to impressed with her and popped her gum as she fished through the papers on her desk. Ky peeked over to see her name tag, Joanie.
"Here you go." Joanie set a piece of paper on the counter and resumed her gum popping, staring at the computer screen.
"Thank you Joanie. I hope you have a nice day." Ky smiled sweetly before turning away, missing the nonchalant wave from the receptionist.
"She seemed nice." She giggled as she walked back up to Damien. Peeking out the door she looked both ways before glancing back at him. "Is it safe to move or are your fan girls hanging around here still?"

Terry numbly followed his brothers to the cafeteria. His nose was red, wet and gross to touch, but he tried getting his thoughts away from the night before. He put his focus on his own running nose and tried to hide it behind the hood of his sweat shirt. His brothers were confused as him following them, bu they didn't care. He just sat apart from there group and tried to control the flux of sniffles that flowed from behind his collar.
It took him a while before he realized he didn't need his collar as a tissue. He got up and headed for the napkin dispensers, and it was about then when he looked at his phone. It was well passed seven thirty and he was way late for his first class. "Shit, I like Mr. Hayashi too..."
((Blah, sorry my posts might be a little erratic, I'm kind of distracted and I'm sharing a pc for tongiht... XD))
