*~A New Life, Means New Friends~*

Chapter 1: A new begining

I hate it when you finally accomplish something, but you swore to never tell a soul,.. When you're hopelessly stuck in a treacherous circle of events, where not all the events are nice to remember. When you're stuck in a situation you got yourself into, but can't really get out without breaking a promise of sorts,..well. Welcome to my life.
I'm Angla, and this is my story,..not all of since I'm not dead,.. But majority of it,..is only the parts I can remember.

So i have just moved to a new town called Selkirk,...and I already hate it,..I know nobody, and my old "friends" dont want a single thing to do with me,.. So I was stuck, alone in my bed room. My mom knocked on the door and poked her head in "Angie? Wanna come for a walk with me, your little siblings, and da-"
"No. I'm fine, you can go,.." I muttered, cutting her off mid-sentance. My mother nodded a bit and left, shutting my door. I sighed softly and stared at the photos of my old friends and I. Well,..at my second house.. I touched a picture of me and a young boy falling into a big pool, I smiled. We used to be...such good friends,..then I moved,..and moved again,.. I sighed and put the pictures away. "You'll make friends easily!" My moms voice echoes in the back of my head. "Yeah, sure,..ok.." I mutter. "Doesnt she see that I'm a social invert, I don't like big crowds and I don't like humans in general..!! I punched my bed, not wanting to damage my new room. I shivered, then looked up. "Tomorrow I start,.." I sighed and laid down, going to sleep.

I woke up to the annoying whine of my alarm. I smacked it until it shut off, then rolled over. "Maybe she'll forget,.." I think to myself just as my mother steps in my room. "Wakey wakey!! Time for your frist day of school!!" She smiled, and I groaned.
"I don't wanna go," I pleaded, but my mother shook her head. "You're going. Now, up, up, up!" She said then left. I got up and hoisted myself off my bed. I got dressed into my clothes, nothing fashy, but nothing to bleak.

I slid my pocket knife into my pocket. My mother says theres no need and if the school found out I would be expelled. But I didn't care, it calmed me down oddly enough, then I grabbed my biege messenger bag and slung it over my shoulder with a sigh. "You look nice today," my mother smiled, standing behind me. I turned to face her with a fake smile. "Thanks! Well, I'm gonna go, ok? Bue mom, love you!" I said then walked out of the house. I put my headphones on and blasted my music. I didn't care if people could hear.
I got to the school and walked through the doors straight to the office. Almost no one was in the school,..it was quiet. I got my schedule, lock, locker number, and my homeroom teachers name and class number, and walked away to my new locker. It was grey and dulled, but it'd do. I dumped all the useless stuff I'd forget about till the last day of school and slammed my locker shut with a sigh. "Hello." I jumped, dropping my lock. There was a boy standing behind where my locker door was, he picked up my lock and handed it to me. "I'm sorry!!.." He blurted. I scanned him up and down slowly, and took a step back, sliding my hand into my pocket. Resting my hand on the smooth metal of my pocket knife seemed to almost immediately calm me down. "Are you new here? I've never seen your face around here before," he said, eyeballing me. I nodded. "Yeah. Just moved here not even a week ago." I said, a but coldly. "Oh, welcome to Selkirk and I'm Ashton," he grinned. I nodded. He wore simple clothes.

"Thanks,..I'm Angla" he smiled and stuck out his hand. I shook his hand. "I have 4 friends you might like! I'll show you to them when they get here, alright?" He smiled warmly at me, and I sighed softly. "Sure, whatever,.." I said then waved and walked off after locking my locker. I quickly turned the corner and pressed myself up against the wall. I sighed softly. "He obviously only wants to pick on you..." I muttered to myself. The bell rang and I ran to my class. I walked in and I saw him,..Ashton..sitting in the class. Great. I walked in and sat in the very very back corner. The teacher stood at the front and rambled on and on about something. Then he called my up to the front, I regretfully went up and stood beside the teacher. I was taller then him.. "Class this is our newest student, Angla Utlise." He said and the class gave me dirty looks, some smiles, and a wave from no one but..Ashton. I rushed to my seat and sat there, in silence. Ashton came with 4 other people and sat around me in 'L' shape. "This is her!" He smiled. "I met her in the halls mot that long ago!" There was two girls and two new boys. The first girl smiled at me and waved, she seemed very bubbly. She wore tomboys clothes with a few feminine touches.

The other girl seemed a bit shyer, her outfit consisted of mainly black.

The other boys were very different. One was a shorter boy with blonde hair and had a noticeably a lot of Zelda stuff.

The last new person was a boy who seemed to be drawing. His closes were a bit casual, but still had the twist of today's style, but he also wore,..odly enough a gasmask.

They all greeted me with a hello and told me their names. The girl with the batman pants, her name was Izzy. The other girl's name was Jillian. The blonde boy's name was Benjeman. I didnt catch the gasmask boy's name,..he spoke very quietly., but I think his name was James or some other

Time passed and we made small talk,.. They all seemed to take a bit of intrest in me, though I don't know why. The bell rang and we all stood, and left the class. Just then a very tall boy shoved Ashton over and laughed at him. Then punched James and smacked Benjeman. "Hey! Fuck off!" I called, throwing my books onto the floor. I dont know why,..but I was standing up for them,.. "Oh..is this the new girl?..~" he purred, cornering me. He was very tall, I had to crane my neck all the way up to see his face. "Tch. If I am?! Got a problem with that?" I spat coldly at him. He grabbed my face roughly and forced me to look at him. "Listen here, bitch. I run these halls. Hell, i run this fucking school!! I'll let you off this time...but next time you stand up to me,..you'll regret it.." He growled then kneed me in the stomach, causing me to double over and almost barf. I dropped to my knees, glaring daggers at his head. "Bastard.." I breathed as he trotted away. "Why did you stand up for us?...are you ok?!" Ashton said, helping me up. "Are you ok?! Your bleeding.." I said. Why did I suddenly care about these people!? I don't know them!! James walked over, grinning. "You're a brave thing! You stood up to Zalgo,..that's rare..do you have a death sentence?" He joked. I giggled softly. The girls came out of the room. "Oh my god! What happened!?" Izzy asked, helping up Ben, who was silent, but looked pissed. I sighed, "Zalgo." I muttered. Jillian stared at me. "We should've warned you.." She said, sympathetically.
"Its ok!" I smirked. "I'll kick his ass! I promise!"
