Luna

Chapter 1

It was another school day and nothing new has happened yet. I still woke up at the same time, showered and changed into my laid out clothes, and then went into the kitchen to have breakfast with my family before Dad would drop me off at the hellhole.

As he parked his truck outside of school, I was lost in my thoughts. Did I really have to go and spend another miserable six hours of not doing anything because of exams? Did I really have to suffer all the social abuse over and over again? Heck, I bet that the bullies have enough aswell since they can't come up with good excuses to torment my life.

"Hey, are you okay?" Dad asked as he stared at me in worry. "You know that you don't have to go in. Your Mum can call the school and tell them that you are sick."

"That's a great idea Dad," I said as I smiled at the thought, "but you know that is not possible. The school's cameras and some of the teachers have already seen your car."

Dad laughed as he pulled my head to his chest and kissed the top of it. "I love you, Luna. Your Mum loves you. Don't let others take advantage of you because you are different and prettier than them."

"Thanks Dad," I said as I hugged him and kissed his cheek. "I'll see you after school." With that I unbuckled my seatbelt and got out of the truck before Dad drove away to work. Uh, is it weird to say that I already miss him and Mum? Because I do.

Sighing, I turned around and started walking to my school's entrance. Nightingale High School. The place that I've been attending for eleven years old, and now at fifteen, I'm still attending the place that not only cause me to have nightmares at the beginning, but also the place that always brought me down to the point where I couldn't even leave the house or fall asleep without crying.

As I entered the school's main hallway, I could already see the football teams picking on the smart ones, while the cheerleaders sticked with the blonde expensive Barbie's. Unfortunately, this was my stereotypical school with jocks, cheerleaders, plastic Barbie's, nerds, and the outcasts. I was one of them, the outcasts. The ones that didn't belong in any group.

"Hey look who it is," I heard the Barbie Queen say as I walked towards my locker, which ironically was right next to them. "Hey, I'm talking to you bitch!"

I knew from a long term experience that not giving someone attention when they wanted it would get them angry and bring their egos down, so being the nice girl I was, I got my books, slammed my locker as they came closer to me, turned around and walked to my class ignoring all the name calling and rude words spoken about me.

Until I heard it.

"Gosh, no wonder her parents are such losers. I mean come on! They couldn't even find a decent place to live, and naming their child Luna...How pathetic is that?"

I heard it all. All the words, all the laughter, and all the screams and screeches after I turned around and lunged myself at her, hitting her left and right while everyone else gathered around us, either to encourage, film, or laugh. But it wasn't until after everyone heard the principle's voice, that made this bitch underneath me punch me before she screamed at the pain in her hand.

I glared at her so hard that everyone else coward back. I was about to lounge myself at her again when I felt it. It was like a thousand knives stabbing my body over and over again. I stared to feel my body heat up like crazy, and before I knew it, I was running out of the school and into the forest nearby. The deeper I ran into it, the more intense the pain and heat got.

I finally stopped right in the middle of the forest. Being surrounded by large trees, fog and heavy air gave me the opportunity to quickly disregard all my clothes to cool down my body after I checked if anybody was nearby. I sat down on my disregarded clothes and waited for my body to cool down, only it didn't. The heat intensified and soon I felt it, my bones cracking.
