"No..." I muttered as I stood in front of a plastic container , "Why...." I took the box and stared at the singular cookie left inside.
"Damn it.. It's expired..." I gripped tightly onto the container, and raised it above the garbage can.
I closed my eyes and let go, a loud clang was heard.
"Nevermind that ! What time is it?" I yelled to myself, ignoring the part of me that wanted to reach into the trash and eat that cookie anyway.
I glanced at neon red clock with a broken leg.
" 6:44...what am I suppose to do again...?" tapping on my chin, I looked around my room.
In the corner of my eye, I saw my new red and black backpack, I stopped and considered, what was I forgetting?
"school...SCHOOL! " I rushed towards my closet and scrambled around my room cursing.
Dressing, 1 minute, showering, 4 minutes, stuffing food in my mouth and putting on my shoes, 1 minute.
I grabbed my backpack and rushed out. Swallowing the food in my mouth, I grabbed my bike and paddled towards my new school.
************
"Oh..so school starts at 7:30 here....meh, who knew? " I said, collecting my schedule and locker number.
My first class was Math, so I dumped all the text books in my locker except those that I needed.
Mr.Marco... Math teacher, alright! I ran across the hallways, my eyes scanning the labels of the classrooms.
I stopped in front of a green door labeled Math, creating a loud screech.
Ignoring the smoke on my shoes, I slammed open the door.
A teacher with dark green hair turned to look at me, as did everyone else in the room.
"Ah ! You must be the new student! " He said with a welcoming smile.
I did a small bow, " Sorry for interrupting the class but... Am I late ? "
The teacher shook his head , " No no, we were just about to start, I am Mr.Marco and please, come in and introduce yourself to the class. "
I did as told, " Uhh... Hi, my name is Millie, I uhh... Like food. "
The class fell silent, no one moved a muscle, Millie turned back to the teacher, " I'm done. "
The teacher nodded and pointed at the window seat at the very corner of the class.
Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.
The students stared at me as I walked towards my seat.
Do I look that bad? Or is it just my features? Black hair , long hair, with a red tip...and different color eyes ,yeah that must be it.
Pitch black on my left eye and crimson red on my right, very normal...totally.
I sat down and took out my books, the teacher started talking and the others stopped staring.
"Alright class, if you haven't known, we will be taking a test today, Millie , you can skip the test if you want, since you haven't been studying with us for the past few weeks." Mr. Marco said.
I shaked my head, " It's ok Mr. Marco, I'll take the test." I said, confidently.
Mr. Marco nodded and started passing out the papers.
I glanced at the dude on my right, he was asleep. Without thinking, I poked the dude's head, it did nothing.
I poked the his stomach, nope, the arm, nope, the shoulder, nope.
I cleared my throat, " Wake up, you're late for school."
"Five more minutes mom..." He groaned.
"Or else no breakfast. "
He gasped and jumped from his seat, he fell on the floor with a loud thud and groaned.
" Ow ! My shoulder." He yelled in pain.
"Uhhh... Sorry ? " I said, not knowing what to say.
The whole class laughed and some boys started pounded on their desks.
He stood up, and rubbed his shoulder , " Whoever said that is evil... No breakfast... What kind of threat is tha---- "
The boy immediately stopped talking, he stared at me like I'm evil , well..i do look evil, that's true.
He sat down, his eyes on me.
"Uhh..." is all he said.
"Look, I'm not evil alright ? " I said, crossing my arms.
He nodded, " My name is Sean....What's yours?" And finally in a hundred years, he smiled.
"My name is Millie. " I said, stretching out my hand for him to shake.
He looked quite shocked for a second, " Well..uhh..i don't think it's a good idea for you to shake my hand..."
I tilted my head and stared at him, looking puzzled.
"o..kay..." I said, taking my hand back.
Sean had blackish blue hair and dark blue eyes.
He looked a little down and taken back until he looked at the test paper in front of him , "Oh hell no."
"You may start now ! " the teacher announced.
**************
"Alright ! Time's up! " Mr.Marco said, his eyes now off his watch.
Some students groaned and slammed their heads on their table.
Is it that hard ? I mean, I had time to double check it 8 times so....
"Pass the papers to the front please. "
I stood up and gave the teacher my test paper.
"I will give you 10 minutes of free time while I mark the worksheets. "
I went back to my chair and sat back until the girl sitting in front of me turned around.
"Hey, you're the newbie right ? " She asked.
" I don't appreciate you calling me that but yeah. " I said.
She rolled her eyes, " What's your quirk? "
I stopped and stared at her , " I prefer not..."
She stood up and walked to me, " What's your quick, just tell me already. "
" It's rather personal..."
She groaned, " Just tell me already, I don't have all day. "
I looked around and saw everyone staring at me.
"What if I tell you I'm a cripple? " I said, looking up.
Sean's head suddenly turned towards me.
"Pffft, just spill it. " She crossed her arms and frowned.
"Then let me ask you, what's your definition of cripples ? " I asked.
"Cripples are ones with no quirks, they're useless and a waste of space. " She said with a smirk, and glared at Sean.
I shaked my head, " Then you have no right to ask for my quirk, if that's what you think about cripples, then you have no right to know my quirk. "
She growled, looking down at me like I'm trash, girl, if you think you're taller than me than you're wrong, you can't just look down at me just because I'm sitting on a chair and is shorter than you at the moment.
I stood up, looking down at her, I was 3 inches taller than her, the difference was pretty big, I can't help it but laugh.
It's not that I'm tall, it's just that the girl is too short.
" Just shut it and go away..." I said, my voice low and dangerous.
She backed up, her eyes showing signs of fear, fear...a very familiar scent.
