"That makes... Mack, Errol, Mike, Teako, Lulu, and pita, out! Mr. Okono announced.

"Wait, what about me and Knite-su?" Bayo asked.

"Well.. there are only three winners, Yua, Kia, and James, and Mike and Teako took eachother down,  so did Lulu and Pita. So that means we need one more student to go." He explained.

"So it's a face-off." Knite-su said.

"Yes, but tomorrow, class is over."

Like Mr. Okono predicted the bell rang, the day was over, and the we all scattered out of the woods.

Many students died today Errol, Mack, Mike, Teako, Lulu, and Pita. Their bodies were carried off to wherever. As I saw, there weren't any graveyards around the school. So they must be recycled, or something, since they are experiments, created out of a lab with abilities, usually two, and normal human emotion. Though there hasn't been any new creations coming in, maybe it's a budget cut or no one wants to take up all their time and energy to make a new soul. Besides, there already were enough students at Bosko High.

I was too tired to go to my tree; I just wanted to sleep in my warm, comfortable bed for the rest of the night.  I began walking out of the woods, everyone passing me, even James and Knite-su. I had learned a lesson from Knite-su today, I had gotten to close to him, and I got hurt. Now it seems James wants to come into my life all of a sudden, I won't let him. I won't let anybody ever again. I would just do what I was created for, killing.

As I entered the doors to the school halls, which had waves of students relaxing now that it was a Friday. Walking down the halls, I couldn't  help but hear through my fine-tuned cat ears. Many people talk about a dance, several girls seems excited, bouncing up and down. As the boys bragged about whom they would take. Down the hall a few boys caught sight of her.

One nudged the other and whispered, "Hey, I dare you to ask her out."

Her, As in Kia, I pulled up my hood hoping no one would bother me about this stupid, pointless dance.

Though, what else would she do this weekend, Train? No, I didn't want to, fighting Knite-su off was enough. Maybe I could just see what happens, just this once. What's the harm in that?

I turned when I felt a tap on my shoulder, it was the boy who was dared to ask her to the dance.

"You heard about the dance this Saturday?" He asked, his voice shaking, a failed attempt at confidence.

"Mhm." Kia nodded lazily, "what time?"

"At 7:00pm." He said, twiddling his fingers.

"So, uh, you wanna go with-"

Kia turned her back to him before he could finish, and strolled off down the hall.

"Wait, are you gonna go with me?" He yelled to her.

Without turning to him she replied, "I'm going, just not with you."

I could hear his friends laughing at him. To be rejected by me, would be harsh on your reputation. Some people may think I want attention, though, I sends glares at people before they can attempt to even say hi, so no. I was not desperate for any friends, boyfriends, or anything unnecessary that people may say I want.

I opened the door to my dorm, and locked it behind myself. Sitting on my bed, I put my diamond on top of the small table next to the bed. Across the room was my mirror, I saw myself in it from across the room. Noticing my hair was a mess and had dirt in it from brawling with Knite-su and my black and white shirt and white shorts were also stained.
