Liana pov

**********

School starts today. I was feeling sacred and happy at the same time. This place was so modern! I wish my home would be like this. Not like those kind of medival ones. It bores me to death.

" Liana. We've arrived." I gulped. Gran smiled at me. "No need to worry. You'll be alright." Rinata squeezed my hand. I smiled at her and hoisted the bag onto my shoulders.

First day at school was really terrible. All of them will whisper and point as though I am a ghost or something. As I walked, I gave each of them to smile. It was what Mrs Beth always taught me. Smile. Hold your head high. Stand straight. Do not dawdle. Most of them rolled their eyes. One of them pointed at me and laughed. When I almost reached my destination, a group of girls standing opposite me laughed. I could hear what they were talking about.

"Look at her! She looks so pale!" "Like a ghost!" "What shampoo did she use for her hair? It stinks!" One girl with a doll face snickered so I suspect she was the leader in their group. Suddenly they walked towards me. Doll-face smirked. "What an old fashioned girl! You must be that new thing right?" A few of her friends laughed. "I have a name you know. Its-" Doll-face held up a hand. "Old lady! Everyone please call her...Old Lady!"

Everyone nearby bursts out laughing. "My name is Liana." "Whatever, Oldie. With a face like this," She pointed at my face. "You can't get a boyfriend!"

I gritted my teeth. "That does not have anything to do with you." I tried to walk away but doll-face held me back. "You bitch! How dare you avoid me! Girls, she needs some good spanking!" I gasped when they pulled my hair and punched me in the stomach. Suddenly the whole school went silent. I could only hear my own cries and their screaming.

I was so pissed off that I almost hit doll-face in the face. "Asshole. Stop squirming. " I managed to roll my eyes. The pain was so intense that I could hardly gasp. Suddenly I could feel strength running through my veins. I growled and hit doll- face on the nose. She screamed and held her hand over her face. Blood began dripping from her hand to the floor.

I turned and punched another girl in the face. Another on the stomach. I gasped. Oh god. What had I done? Three bruised person lay on the floor, spitting curses at me. How did I have so much power? Does that has something to do with my late grandfather? I could see my hands glowing pink. I frowned and looked closer. There were tiny spirals of ice twirling on my palm. What the heck?

"What was all this?" The headmistress, Mrs Dutch growled. I quickly covered my palm. " I-I truly am sorry but those gi-" Doll-face stood up and pointed at me. "She did it! She punched us. She wants a fight." Mrs Dutch glared at me. "New girl! I want to remind you about your status in this school. You are a new girl and Teresa's parents were very rich. You have no right to beat her up. She did nothing to deserve this." I shook my head. "Mrs Dutch. Teresa started the fight. She called me names and almost punched me to death!" "Nonsense! She was the best girl in the school. You have no right to say this. Come and see me after school." I frowned. "Why?" "You are in detention."

After detention, I waited for gran outside. Most of the girls gave me dark looks. I don't know why because they were there too. Two boys walked past me and snickered. " Hey! Bloody killer. So glad you knock her down! We hate her selfishness. But otherwise she was okay."

I bit my tongue. "Whatever." Suddenly I could hear a car honking. "Liana! Over here." I got into the car. Gran smiled at me. "So, how was your new school?"

I sighed. "Terrible." I told gran about everything that happen at school. "Oh dear. That Teresa...was the daughter of Mr Mark. He was the richest man in the world but of course your father was the richest. Anyway she was the type that always think she was the best in the world."

I shrugged. "Selfish girl." Gran nodded and parked her car next to a tree. Then I realised that we had already reached home. The pegasus was still lingering in my mind.

Rinata waved her hands in front of me which disrupts my thoughts. "How was your new school? Fun?" I shook my head. "No. Ask gran."

I went to my room, bathe and got dressed. I sat on my bed. There were bruises on my arms. I sighed. Miss Popular was that bitch Teresa. I'm sure she'll repeat what she had done to me today tomorrow. I extended my hands. Weird. Tiny swirls of ice on my palm? Shall I tell gran?

I think I should. Suddenly I could hear a voice in my head. 'My maiden, please help me.' I frowned. What the heck was that?

Help who? I looked around and shook my head. I am senile. I took my bags and started to arrange my books for tomorrow. I could hear Gran calling me down for lunch. Gran filled my cup with tea. "I hope you won't get detention again. Its not good to have lots of fighting cases." I pouted. "That was so not my fault! Bitchy woman did that first." "Oh, be quiet. I don't want to hear bad words coming out from your mouth."

I nodded. "Fine. Do this place have any archery lessons? I want to get my hands on them." Gran frowned. "For what purpose? I know you want to protect yourself against enemies but Rinata can do it. Just leave it to her." "Yeah your highness. I will protect you!"

"But...I want to learn." Gran took a deep breath. "Didn't you learn when you were at the palace?" I bit my lip. "Dad does not want me to do archery. He wants me to be good in sword fighting."

Gran nodded. "Alright! I know there's s friend of mine that teaches people archery. I'll go talk to her after sending you to school." I smiled. "Thank you gran." I wrapped my arms her tightly. Rinata sighed. "That was sweet."

After lunch, we went to the mall to catch a movie. It was called, 'Black rose' It was an eerie but beautiful tale. Then I bought gran some new clothes. "That was not necessary." Gran said. She bought me some books to read. Said it would built up my knowledge.

Rinata bought a dress. "It looks good on me." I nodded. "Yeah. Fits you perfectly." We both giggled.

Finally we had dinner there. The food was amazing! Way better than the ones at my palace. Gran sighed. "Looking at you makes me feel guilty. I should have taken care of you after you were born. Then you need not worry about not knowing anything about this world." I stroked her head.

" Its alright gran. I love you." She beamed at me and patted me on the head. "Such a sweet child."
