THE STOLEN SAPPHIRE

CHAPTER 1: 'AT LEAST IT CAN'T GET ANY WORSE'

'Let's give a simple introduction', "Hi, my name is Emily !%&*$, My age is 15, I live a normal life with a normal family, current hobbies, well I got none but if you want I could enjoy and participate in doing your casual activities". 'Maybe this is too formal, should I just make up some hobbies, no, That would lead me to lie but who cares right?'

I said this to myself knowing I was going to screw up. My first day of school, wow, now that I think about it this sounds cringy and kind of annoying. I have to give an introduction which I don't want to do, make new friends which I don't want to, and participate in different curriculum activities which I don't want to. Whatever I thought in my mind I just wanted to forget it.

The time is 7:30, my class starts at 8:00 sharp, my sister gets ready at 7:35 to 37, and my mother has almost packed my lunch, leaving 21 mins left till I make it early. Wow, 21 mins!, I guess I really am good at time management.

'Hey Emily, do you know if my shoes are polished or not?'.

You have got to be kidding me, 'How would I supposed to know if your shoes are polished or not, it's your responsibility', is what I said to a 10-year-old girl who is, unfortunately, my sister. Why did I ask to have her, well whatever the reason is she is a pain in my butt and a complete maniac who is nothing but spoiled for her pleasure. 

'Hey watch your tone! I am your sister', she said straight into my face, God I hate her but what can I do, I have to face the devil head to head.

'Listen you brat, don't lecture me to watch my tone, You should watch your tone and reflect upon your actions because if I WERE TO FIND OUT THAT I WAS LATE ON MY FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, LITERALLY I WILL KILL YOU INFRONT OF EVERY ON_', 

Now you all might be wondering, did I say this to a 10-year-old girl?, no I am not that bad, to begin with, what you just read was my mind, what I did was leave the room, left my house, and went to school alone. 

Why should I waste my time arguing with someone who doesn't understand the meaning of the word late?

******

Finally, I made it on time, or should I say exactly 21 minutes early.

I saw many students like me, well what I mean is that I think they must also be new to this school. Looking at them makes me one of them as an equal, Why you ask? We all were wearing the same grey jumpsuit which was separately handed to us by the school management.

'Okay Emily just breath, you got this, this is a new chapter for you', Is what I said but didn't imply it. Just as I took my first step, entering the school grounds, I felt that something different was going to happen. Why did I feel this?

Anyway, I entered the school with a bright smile, knowing I was going to screw up.

Observation 1: Students are gathered in a group to discuss their fields, girls who violated the dress code often gossip about boys of higher age.

Observation 2: Boys stare at girls for no reason, can't tell if they like them or just want to kill her.

Observation 3: This school is divided into three different sections, Bio-Medical, Pre-Engineer, and, Commerce; Until now there has been no sign of a teacher or a principal.  

So far I have only made three observations, quite less than what I was expecting but judging from my perspective, they all have a normal life. (Something that I wanted).

DING DING x 2

It was the bell, and just as it stopped a large screen appeared from the stage. There red, blue, and purple screen lights were shown to represent each field. Loud sounds started to pierce my ears and a huge school logo was shown on the screen. Two seniors were standing in the center of the stage, one girl and one boy.

"Good morning everyone!", said the girl loud and clear, "Welcome freshmen to your new session at 'Newstock High', a school dedicated to its students to enhance learning and show their skills by their abilities, I your senior Sharin Killian will be your host for today".

"And I Alvin Killan, also your senior am also your host for today".

Okay, gotta admit it, this was a total waste of time, Where the hell is the principal?

"Now that you know all the details I would now like to call 'Principle Veronica' on the stage". (Finally).

my eyes went straight on to a tall slender woman, who I guess was in her forties. Her appearance was as dazzling as a diamond, her reddish hair, thick and straight was tied into a bun. I just wished those ocean-blue eyes were looking at me. 

'Wait what the hell am I thinking?'

"Thank you all for waiting patiently, I hope your stay will be productive and that you will bring glory to this school. You all will be provided with quintessence education which will later help you in your Luminous years".

She ended her speech with a Vivid quote, "Students please remember one thing, 'Your life is nothing without power, if you wish to seek it then fight for it', That is all".   

Her words were interesting, There are many kinds of possibilities in this world, who knows, maybe things might start to get more fu-, what I mean was furious.

DING DING x 2

The bell rang again, well now was the time to actually work it up. I just need to remember the lines and everything will be okay. Yes, that's right, everything will be okay.

Now I just need to find my class, mm. I can't believe I didn't think this through. Why did things start to get bad?

'It's fine Emily, you just need to ask someone and they might come to help you'. And nobody seems to be interested in me, Well, at least it can't get any worse.
