Hot Head; A Warren Peace Love Story

Chapter 1

Rose

My alarm clock blared, stirring me from my slumber. I forcefully hit snooze, sighing I got up and began to dress for my first day at Sky high.

I picked a simple black t-shirt with some skinny jeans. I slipped on my converse and walked to my bathroom, flipping on the light I put my hair in a loose bun on top of my head, pulling out a few pieces to add volume.

I clipped on my necklace; a wolf head snarling with my birthstone in its jaws. I lightly applied makeup then left my bathroom and headed downstairs. My mother was already awake.

"Hey ma" I said smiling and sitting down at the table.

"Good morning sweetheart" she said cheerfully. She then turned to me and set down a plate full of bacon and eggs. I smiled up at her and dug in. Finishing my food in record time as always. I quickly slipped on my jacket and grabbed my bag.

"Bye mom. See you after school." I said kissing her on the cheek and practically running to the door to ensure I wasn't going to be late.

"It's your first day! Don't hurt anybody!" She yelled after me. I smiled and waved my hand and shut the door. I saw a few other kids at the bus stop already. They seemed to be talking so I kept my distance.

"Hey, are you a freshman like us?" A boy with brown hair asked me.

"Yeah." I replied.
"Are you going to sky high?" The redhead chimed in beside him.
"Yes, who are you guys?" I asked skeptically.
"I'm Will Stronghold and this is my best friend, Layla" he smiled.
"Ah. Stronghold" I smiled "I'm Rose Wolfsbane." Their eyes lit up, "You're the daughter of the wolf man!?" They exclaimed.
"Yeah, I -" before I could finish my sentence the bus pulled up. I nicely let them get on first, the bus driver made a big deal about Will being a stronghold. I sat down in an empty seat and stared out the window.

After the flying bus took dropped us off at the school I quickly found Will and Layla. I nodded at them then looked forward. Then, this force seemed to pull us all together and these two chumps decided they were going to pick on Ethan, the smallest and most nerdy of the freshman group. I growled and intervened their little game with Ethan.

"Back off" I said, "it's our first day." My eyes changed color to their menacing yellow and my teeth grew. I bared my canines at them and they obliged.

This rather preppy girl showed up as they walked off, her name is Gwen, she said she was with some student thing? I drowned her out to calm myself down then I nodded back at Ethan and took my place back by Will and Layla.

"That was bold, what you did." Layla whispered to me.
"Yeah I suppose it was. I just hate bullies." I smiled. Then our group began to walk so we followed. We were led to this gymnasium. The headmaster gave a speech to us then left as a floating orb of light?  Now here comes the hard part, our placement tests.

"I am Coach Boomer. Do not complain about your placements, is that clear?" He said rudely. A chorus of small 'Yes sirs' sounded. "Am I clear?!" He yelled obviously using his power. "YES SIR!" We all yelled back. "Let's begin!"

First up was Larry, who turned into a huge rock man; Hero.
Second was not called upon, Zach who apparently glowed; Sidekick.
Third was Ethan who was called upon, he just turns into a puddle of his own self; Sidekick
Then there was a boy with six arms; Hero. A girl who turns into a huge bouncy ball; Sidekick. This boy spits acid, gross but cool; Hero.
A boy who can morph into different humans; Hero. A girl who shapeshifted into a guinea pig, haha I can beat that; Sidekick.

"You flower child. Let's go" he pointed at Layla. "I don't believe in using my powers unless the situation demands it" she replied. They began to argue, finally he just yelled "SIDEKICK"

Then he looked to me, "you." He pointed "up here." I sighed and walked up there. "Name?" He demanded. "Rose Wolfsbane." He cocked his head at my name and scribbled it down.

"What are your powers?" "I uh- don't think it would be wise for me-" "Silence! I will not have another student disobey me!" He yelled fully interrupting my statement. "Fine, I guess you're  the ones at risk not me." I backed up slightly then fully shifted into my one of two forms; a lion.

I let out a huge roar and bared my teeth at him. "Hero!" I shifted back and dusted myself off, "I can also control the elements." He nodded and I stepped off the stage. Then the bell rang, lunch!

I sat down at an empty table, I began to eat but a voice interrupted me. "This table is taken." A voice growled. "I don't think you own the whole damn table." I snapped back. A hand latched onto my shoulder and I was pulled out of my seat. I grabbed the arm of the person, my fingernails growing and my eyes changing colors. I lifted my lips to show off my sharpened canines, they were always like that but got bigger when I was pissed.

"Pick your battles wisely. I am not one to tussle with." I spat out at him. His gaze remained hard but his eyes had forsaken him and showed his fear. I smiled and took a deep breath. I let go of his arm and fixed his jacket and patted his chest.

"Ask nicer next time baby cakes." I smirked and grabbed my tray and went to sit down with Layla and their friends.

Warren

I watched that girl strut to Stronghold's table. She's actually kind of cute to be honest. I wonder what her powers are. I sat down and stared daggers into Strongholds back, hoping that she would yet again turn around so I could see her face. Damn, I need to know her.
