Riley POV

I was with Wednesday on my way to fencing class, and Mrs. Weems phoned my family to ask which option would suit me best.

As we entered the room, several students looked at us. Well, more Wednesday, because she was the only one dressed in black. Looking around the room, I met Enid's gaze and she waved at me. This girl makes me feel things I've never felt before.

Suddenly, a student who had been fighting fell to the ground.

-Coach! Coach, she made me fall.

-It was a free kick, Rowan.

-You should be practicing instead of whining," said the girl who beat her.

- "Sir, I need a real opponent. Who else wants to take me on?

-Me." I said.

The girl turned to me and wednesday

-Oh, you're the new psychopaths, are you?

- "And you, the self-proclaimed queen bee? said Wednesday

-Interesting fact: If you pull a bee's stinger out of a bee, it dies. I say with a smile

The girl looks at us like we're from another planet.

-Rowan doesn't need you to defend him. He's bad, he's lazy.

-I don't care about his life, you want to fight or not. I say.

The dark-skinned girl stood up and I did the same, Wednesday and Rowan stood aside.

-En garde," said the entarineur.

Wednesday and Rowan looked at us, me and Bianca put on our masks, and we took up our positions. Bianca attacked first, but I scored the first point.

-A touch for Riley.

In the second round Bianca scored, everyone had stopped training to watch us.

-The score is tied.

Me and Bianca take off our masks

-The first point was beginner's luck. Let's call it a day. Me and Bianca leave the fencing piste and I look back at Wednesday, who subtly nods at me. I turn back to the coach

-For the victory point I'd like to invoke a millitary challenge. No mask, no fly. The one who draws blood wins.

Everyone looked at me in shock as Wednesday smiled slightly. Bianca approached me

-It's your decision, Bianca," said the trainer.

- "Let's see if you and your gothic friend can do the smart thing. said Bianca, swinging her mask.

I didn't even bother to set up, I just went straight for Bianca, we weren't even fighting by the rules anymore.

But finally Bianca wounded me on the forehead, and everyone was stunned.

-We'll see if you'll ever be a psychopath again. She said with a smile

--------------

I was in the infirmary, the nurse was putting a bandage on me, Rowan was there too with a nurse who was doing I-don't-know-what to him, Wednesday was just sitting on a chair next to me. We'd become very close, even though we'd only known each other a day.

-Riley and Wednesday, right?" said Rowan.

Me and Wednesday stood up

-Rowan. he introduced himself

-I understand you." he continued.

- "I guarantee you I don't. I say

-My mother promised that I'd finally feel like I belong. He sighed, "I never thought I'd be the margiinal in a school for misfits.
