Sacrifice Helle

Chapter 2

As expected, Asamis adorable looks made all the teachers love her, and my best option was to shut up, then people would forget that I was even there, but at the same time I would get my hands on the benefits given to Asami. All the teachers love her - they will have an "overbearing" mind when it comes to me too. We were separated and went to each our classroom in whole different parts of the building. Asami got a guide though, they found me old enough to find my may on my own. I opened up the door and found my whole class staring at me. Lessons hadn’t started yet, so people were everywhere in the classroom. I looked for an empty chair and found one by the window, in the back. People moved out of the way as I walked through the room and sat down. Then the teacher came in and everyone rushed to their seats. "Hey, you, new girl, your in my seat!"

I looked up to see a boy with messed up short hair staring down at me. "..this is your seat..?" "Yeah, so get out if it!" Everyone was watching us, and I desperately looked around in the room to find another free place, but there was none, and the boy had no intention of letting me sit where I sat. Not wanting any trouble, I got my stuff and rose up. "Oh, shit girl, you got the longest hair ever!", the boy remarked. I didn’t answer, but moved to the side to let him sit. And then I just stood in the back of the classroom until the teacher finally saw me. "Who are you?", he asked. "Im Helle Kuromi, I’m new here and I’m supposed to be in this class..." "Ah, yes, you are the new one, yes... Hmm, it doesn’t seem like there are any chairs left, Kim, Anna, go find a desk and a chair for her!" The boy who had recently kicked you out of his seat rose up and walked out of the classroom, followed by a girl with brown shoulder long hair. Then the teacher started his lecture without waiting for Kim and Anna to return.

They had eventually gotten back though, and the lesson had been okay. They were working on a high level, but so had my old school, and the teacher were pleased to see my knowledge. However, in between classes I felt uncomfortable. Everyone was looking at me, but as soon as I looked back, they quickly turned their heads. Then came our long lunch break. We had a cafeteria where everyone went to eat, and I started scouting for Asami, but couldnt see her anywhere, the room, which would have made a nice ballroom, was filled with what seemed like thousands of people. I walked around the room, unsure of where to sit down, I didnt want to get thrown out again, it was to embarrassing. I putt my hands in my pocket and noticed a little piece of paper that I had forgotten all about.

I picked it up. The poem, I had forgotten all about it, hadn’t even read it properly yet. I opened the folded piece of paper and started reading. " Time is come, Again we shall see, Our advent is near, Our blessing it shall be, Leave the stars and come to earth, Finding it, our advent, Our fathers blessing and praise to us." I raised one eyebrow. What a weird poem. Suddenly someone snapped it out of my hands, I flipped around and saw that it was that boy again, Kim. He was holding the poem up in the air, shouting, "What’s this, eh? You write poems? Hope you dont mind me reading it!" And so he started reading, no, rather shouting it out so everyone should hear. "Its not mine, you ass, give it back to me!" "Well, if its not yours, why should I give it back?" "I didnt write it, I found it, now shut up and give it back to me!" "No! I think I'll keep it!" He putt it in his back pocket and started to walk away, yet again everyone was staring at us, and I was looking stupid again. "..you shitty little piece of..." I started, Kim turned around but didnt get time to react as I threw my fist in his face, making him fall back on the floor. "YOU CRAZY WOMAN!?", he shouted, and I was about to kick him while he was down, but someone held me back.

I tried to throw the person off, but he was to strong for me, and he had a perfect grip around my arms. Soon I focused and saw that a group of boys were surrounding Kim, facing me, ready to attack me. I calmed down. They were to many for me to take down anyway, violence wouldn’t do no good. I simply had to many weaknesses, winning this match was a stupid idea. The only thing I hoped for was that they would leave now, and that whoever was holding me was on MY side and not theirs. I stared at the gang in front of me, they had eyed me up and down, but now their attention had turned to the person behind me. That mysterious someone had by the way eased the grip around my arms, but I still felt that he wouldn’t let me go. Kim had gotten himself up from the floor and eyed the person behind me, then he nonchalantly said, "Come on, lets go, she’s not worth it." Then he turned away and the rest of the gang started walking away, but a couple of them turned back and shouted "We'll see you later, red hair! Don't think you'll get away with this!"

I sighted with relief, they had left for now. I turned around to face my companion and faced a couple of ice blue eyes staring right back into mine. I jumped back a little. "Not a good idea." The guy said. ".. what..?" He was slightly taller than me, about 180-185 cm, and had the most gorgeous black hair, pretty long too. His voice was dark and he looked like he was about 20, which I though was odd, because at 18 most people graduated from school. Maybe he had flunked. "Not a good idea to piss of a gang of that size, and to punch their 'leader' as well... Theyll torment you forever for that one..." he replied with a smirk, like if something was funny, but I didnt get it. Then he just walked away, without saying anything else and disappeared in the crowd. Everyone else had gone back to their normal business, eating their lunches and then I heard someone calling my name. "Helle!" It was Asami, sitting with some girls from her class. I walked over, and was unsure if sitting with 9-10 year olds would give me a bad reputation, but in the time being, I didnt have anywhere else to sit, and I had already gotten myself into far worse trouble.
