Angelina was on her way to the first day at school. She looked around as she walked up to the school. There was only boys dalliance. "Grace?" she said silently leaning over to him "why is there only guys around here?" "This is an only boys school. Your the only girl to step foot on this campus, oh and you're going to be in all of our classes except one. So if anyone causes you trouble just call us up. Ok." Grace smiled and lead the way for Angelina. Angelina followed Grace and Hunter to there first class it was outside in the on a grass field. Angelina looked around to see the different obstacle courses. The teacher his eyes fixed on Angelina as she walked past. The teacher followed her with his soul piercing eyes as if she was a thug about to start a fight in the schoolyard. He walked over carefully like a buck in the light. He was a big man with greasy hair that was gray and slicked from the rain. He was taller than Hunter by a lot, almost two heads. His eyes were black like a savage bear. "So you're the head knights kid?" he studied her "it's nice to meet you, Angelina. I will not go easy on you during this class just because you are a girl". He gave a sideways smiled and walked away to the main house. As Angelina looked up to feel the rain on her face five shirtless boys walked up laughing "so we finally get a chick in this school. What are you a pickup call, or maybe they have to babysit you for a while" the leader of the group laughed looking back at his followers for comfort. Just then Hunter stepped right between Angelina and Luke. Hunter pushed Luke back "watch it, Luke. You're starting to get out of your place". "What I was just joking around, Hunter" Luke stepped forward and smirked cocking his head forward. Luke was a tall boy as tall as Hunter with light brown hair that was all wet from the rain, he had dark brown eyes and white teeth."Hey, now boys. If we fight the master will make us live in the woods for a week" Grace was riding on a black and white stallion. Angelina backed away slowly hoping they wouldn't notice her escape from this war zone. Just then all the boys looked at her "hey where are you going girl" Hunter grabbed Angelina's hand and held her there. "I told you not to run. I am responsible for you" Hunter tightened his grip on Angelina's wrist. Angelina struggled to be let free. Hunter threw Angelina down on the muddy floor "stay there, this does not concern you".Luke jumped up on the stone wall, perching as if a crow would. Luke laughed "man aren't you a little rough with her Hunter". Hunter moved closer to Luke closing his fist " that's none of your business Luke. I can do whatever I want to her." Angelina stood up quickly reacting to the harsh full words coming from Hunter "I'm not a toy you can just throw around". Angelina took off running to the main house. " I told her if she ran away I would kill her. Stupid girl" Hunter ran after Angelina. Luke motioned for his group to follow the chase. Angelina ran passed the whistling boy and crowded halls. She ran up the stairs to the roof and locked the door with a stone wall plate. Angelina passed back and forth in front of the door. "This is not what I wanted. I just want my father to come back". Hunter started to bang on the door trying to move the heavy block "you are dead you stupid girl". Angelina ran to the edge on the roof and looked down then to a tree next to the building. "Well, it isn't that high" she backed up and ran and took a leap. Hunter and Luke both busted through the door and watched as she flew off the roof. Hunter ran for her reaching out for her shirt barely missing. Angelina fell into the tree before hitting the ground. She laid there in pain gasping for air. Grace popped his head over her "are you, ok miss. You fell over 30 feet. I'm surprised you didn't break your bones. But Hunter is going to be pretty mad at you for running". Grace helped her up as soon as the headmaster came. Grace bowed for respect as the headmaster approached. "Take her to my office now" he said with a raspy voice. The headmaster turned and walked away with no other word.

Angelina was sitting in the headmaster's office waiting to get lectured." You know you could have died if you would've landed on your head. And if that tree wasn't there you would've broken your bones. Why did you jump?". "Cause I was running from Luke, his group and Hunter". Angelina held her breath. "Why were you running from them?" The headmaster walked around Angelina. "Because Hunter grabbed my wrist, then he threw me on the grass as he insulted me to Luke" Angelina shifted in the chair. "I see" the headmaster walked to his desk sitting down in a rickety position "if you do anything like that again over a little fight I will severely punish you for your actions and just because you are the head knights child doesn't mean you can act the way you did just now. Now get out of my office and don't come back". The headmaster stood up walking over to the door and pushed her out. Waiting for her in the lobby was Grace smiling and Hunter looking frustrated. Hunter got up and pinned her against the wall and put his face right next to her. Angelina's heart was pounding, her palms started to sweat. "You could've gotten hurt and do you know what your father would have done to me" Hunter looked straight into her eyes and punched the wall crunching up his face. Hunter opened his eyes taking a step closer to Angelina "don't do anything like that again or I will break every bone in your body so you can't move and I don't care if your father kills me. Got it". "Y-yes sir" Angelina stuttered. Hunter walked off in a forceful hurry. "Don't mind him. He's just worried about your safety. He's a really nice guy but he's not good with girls. So give him a chance" Grace smiled and walked after Hunter "you might want to hurry before we are late". Angelina hurried after Grace "I'm coming"

It was second class and Hunter was in the back corner staring out the window. Grace was talking to a group of guys. The teacher walked in and everyone ran to there seats and became quiet. "Good morning young knights. We have a new knight to the group. Her name is Angelina" the teacher pointed to the seat next to a boy with a book in front of his face "you may sit next to him Angelina". Angelina walked to the back of the class to her desk. As she walked every eye was on her. She sat down and grabbed her books from her desk. And she looked over at the boy next to her, he was taking a nap. "What are you looking at Gorky" he sat up and put the book down, pushing his hair back glancing at Angelina. He was handsome with fine skin and cheekbones. He had brown hair that was put to the side, light grey eyes. "Hey, you miss Gorky what are you looking​ at?". The boy shifted in his chair. "First that isn't my name, second you were sleeping in class which you shouldn't". Angelina turned and started to write down what the teacher was saying about hunting. "You look dumb. Are you dumb?". The bot leaned against his arm. "No I'm not dumb" Angelina continued to take notes." Then why are you taking notes about killing animals? It's very simple even you can do it" he put the book back up can lay back down and started to fall asleep again. "Jerk" Angelina whispered. It was lunchtime at the new school. Grace came to pick her up after the class had ended with Hunter. "Time to eat". Hunter motioned towards the lunch hall. As they walked to the lunch hall the tension between them was unrealistic. Angelina shook her head forgetting about the miserable walk. She then focused on who that rude boy was in her class. As soon as they got to lunch hall Hunter ran to the line and got food for everyone. "Let's sit here" Grace made room for her to sit down but Luke took it. So she had to sit next to Hunter and Luke's wired Friend. "So girly how was your first day of knight school". Luke said as he shoved a piece of turkey leg into his mouth. "It was good. Just not the day I was planning" Angelina said with a piece of bread in her mouth. Just then a red curly haired boy with freckles came and Luke's wired friend moved to the next table out of respect. "Hey guys" he sat down and stared at Angelina with amazement as if he had never seen a girl before. "H-hi" he said gasping for air "I'm Jake but people call me Strawberry". "Hi, I'm Angelina you can call you Angie if you want" Angelina smiled and went back to eating. "Yo, strawberry do you have a new knife to trade for a throwing knife" Luke pulled out his throwing knife and put it on the table. "No sorry I don't get any until next week"Strawberry frowned. All the boys started to groan "really we have to wait a week" Hunter said with a mouth full of mash potatoes. "Yep sorry. My old man is being kinda stricter than last week" Strawberry played with his food on the plate. "That sucks I wanted to practice close combat today" Grace said playing with his chicken breast. "So Angie what do you want to learn here?" Strawberry looked at her and took a drink of milk. "I don't know yet maybe archery or horseback" Angelina looked down at her mixed food. "Lame" Luke said giving her a bored look "you got to learn how to gut an animal or close combat the important stuff. Not horseback or archery". He laughed at her as the whole table joined in on it. Angelina stood up " excuse me I must leave". Angelina threw her plate away then walking out of the lunch hall. "Look what you did Luke. She's mad now" Strawberry said sadly. Angelina walked through the halls and classrooms until she found a large garden with beautiful flowers blue, red, pink, orange, purple every single color you could think of it had it. She walked into the gates of green and to a fountain where she saw the jerk from class. "Hey Gorky are you following me now" he stood up and walked toward her stopping inches away smiling. "I'm not following you. You jerk. I just happen to walk in here and you were in here" she yelled at him. "And since you're in my class I guess you can know my name" he smiled "its Jacob Zuma". After that Jacob walked away and out of the garden. "And stop following me, Gorky" Jacob gave Angelina a side wave as he walked away.

The school day ended leaving Angelina exhausted. "We have Hunter, Grace, Luke, Strawberry, and Jacob. That's a lot of people to remember in one day" Angelina stretched and started to walk home. "Where are you going miss" Grace was jogging close behind her so was Hunter. "I'm going home Grace and I'm going to sleep". "Lazy woman. No your not going to sleep you have homework and practice to do" Hunter started to nag her. "Now that you are going to school you must be a student and do homework on plants and animals and practice combat skills. No excuses". "Fine. I will do whatever just stop talking" she ran off towards home as Hunter and Grace followed.
