From Victorian To Modern [Black Butler]

The Actual Chapter 2

Lux's P.O.V

I swiftly walk through the hallways of the school, hoping to seem invisible to everyone. Unfortunately, someone shoves me into the wall. I fall from the impact.

"Look, it's 'Little Miss Freak'." The girl who shoved me into the wall says. 'Great, just what I wanna deal with'. "All by yourself, huh?"

I can't get around school without one of my friends if I don't wanna get hassled. Just 'cause my eye color is pink. We decided it would be best if I were to be around Taika at the very least since everyone in the school is intimidated by her. No one would dare tease her, or even look at her wrong. Just one glare from her would send shivers down someone's spine.

Before I met Taika, everyone would pick on me for my eye color. When Taika started hanging around me, well she sent the first kid that she saw tease me to the hospital. For 5 months. No one dared mess with me while she was around, but since old habits stick I occasionally get picked on. Generally, I stand up but I've been sorta depressed.

But Taika was called into the office for reasons that won't be mentioned. I'll just say someone tried to pick on me while she was around.

The bell rings. "Aww, looks as if the freak is late for class." She opens a locker next to her by slamming it with her fist, hard. I get up to run, but a nearby jock grabs me and shoves me in the locker. The locker closes, sealing me inside.

'Looks like another assignment I'll have to make up.' "Hey, is anyone out there? Hello?" I hear footsteps approach the locker. I could of course use magic to get out, but that would cause another wave of problems for us.

"Lux?" 'Nina?' "Hang on, I'm gonna get a teacher."

"Okay." This is the second time this month, and it's only the second week of September. I sigh.

I hear locks turn and the locker opens to reveal Nina and my physics teacher, Mrs. Clarkson. I'm supposed to be in her class right now. "Lux, are you okay? Who put you in here?"

"I'm fine. I don't know the people's names though." I step out of the locker. "Thank you." I say to both of them.

"Come on, we'll go report this after class. It's the last class of the day. Will you be able to make it?" Mrs. Clarkson is a really nice teacher. She's got that mother-personality, I think you'd call it that. I nod. Nina walks off to her class, which is in the opposite direction, and I follow Mrs. Clarkson.

We make it to the classroom and Mrs. Clarkson walks to the board while I walk over to my seat. Every student in the class is looking at me. I can hear murmurs throughout the class.

"Why's she late?"

"Hasn't this happened before?"

"Teacher's pet."

"Spoiled brat."

I just sit in silence as Mrs. Clarkson goes over the lesson. I wasn't normally bothered like this, where people would talk bad about me or shove me in lockers. My cheery personality has been gone ever since I've left Sebastian. A lot of people loved my cheery personality. Now I'm just a target. Prey.

Taika's P.O.V

"Come on, I only sent him to the hospital. It's not like I killed him." I argue with the principle.

"It's bad enough that you sent him to the hospital! You'll end up in court now." Mrs. Sanders informs me.

"And I can argue that I was defending someone. It's gonna look bad for him if they know that I was beating him up 'cause he wouldn't leave a girl alone." The girl I'm referring to is Lux. I don't know why, but everyone seems to have something against her now. Before, it was either everyone adored her like a younger sister or ignored her.
