It was the beginning of Marionettes third yeadr at her school and she was not thrilled. It would be another year of harassment if she was unlucky or another year of being shunned if she was.

She had tried to plead with her father many times to move schools but he was adamant she remain here, since it was the only school without any male teachers at all that was close to home.

She groaned as she pulled on her socks and slipped on her shoes, she didn't know how she would make it another year but, she would.

" Nette, I'm heading down to the shop I left your lunch on the bench!" Her father meant well, but he hadn't quite recovered from her mother's death, or more who caused it.

As she examined her self in the mirror she sighed, the uniform was stiff and reminded her of bad school girl pornos which just made her sick.

If her dad wanted men to avoid her, making Marrionette look like a paedophiles wet dream was definitely the way to go.

Her lunch was exactly where he said it was, sitting on the bench in a brown paper bag. Maybe she would skip today, wouldn't be the first or last time. Except she had promised to be better, to do better. Gods she hated morals.

The walk to school wasn't very long but, she liked to take her time going down streets she shouldn't and dragging her feet. There was a large intersection where she had to cross a busy road which was her favourite.

She'd decided halfway through her first she if a car hit her here she wouldn't have to go to school and it would hurt less too. As she got closer she noticed an old man walking up to it, he didn't seem to notice the truck turning and wasn't going to stop.

"Oh no you don't old man, that trucks for me." She grabbed the old man and pulled him back into her barely avoiding the truck. "Are you ok?"

He looked up at her and smiled widely. What a creep, doesn't he realised he nearly died?

"Thank you so much, miss." He then hugged her and moved on not a care in the world. What the hell.

Shaking it off Marionette went on to school, heart and feet getting heavier the closer she got.

By lunch time she was ready to burn the place down with her inside. She was staring numbly at her hair in the mirror where a large clump of gum was squished into it.

It had taken her years to get her hair to this length and now she was going to have to cut it, her father was gonna be psyched. Shaking her head she went digging through her bag for a pair of scissors, all she found was a sharpener.

"Shit."

As she was about to give up her hand bumped an unfamiliar object. It was a black box with an odd symbol on it, inside it was a pair of earrings wich reminded her of a lady beetle.

"How did they get in here?"

Was someone trying to set her up again? Surely not, after all if it doesn't work the first 10 times it won't the 11th, right?

Marionettes eats weren't even pierced it would be redundant her stealing earrings. Although the girls at this school aren't the brightest.

She put the box in the bag and decided to deal with it later. She wasn't sticking around she needed to go home and cut her hair.

"Miss Dupen-cheng!?" She heard her principle shout as she was halfway out of the school hall.

"Shit" Marionette spun to face the sour faced lady who was glaring down at her from the second floor balcony.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Marionette showed the condition of her hair to the strict woman who ran the school for assholes and debutantes.

"To get my hair cut, since your students don't seem to even get a slap on the wrist anymore for their actions."

The woman's nostrils flared but, she didn't say anything so Marionette took that as her sign to dip. She would be 18 soon and her father wouldn't have any control over her and she would be outta here permanently.
