When Her Mask Falls

Chapter One - First day (part one)

Falling in the darkness ... I didn't know where I was going to fall into ... all I know is that I'm falling ... and I shouldn't worry ... I then fell in a pool of turquoise water ... bubbles swirling around me ... and somehow ... I'm breathing ... my ripped clothes turned into a white dress ... I felt like there was someone else with me ... I looked to my left ... there was no one ... I looked to my right ... and there was a tall, tanned man with black hair and dark brown eyes ... he was staring at me ... so I stared back ... and we stared at each other for about 5 seconds ... until he swam up to me ... I felt something on my feet ... I look down ... and my legs are tied up ... the man uses one of his hands to forcefully put both of my hands above me ... he uses his other hand to take something out of his pocket ... a pocket knife ... I tried to kick him, but since my feet are tied up ... I couldn't ... he started to stab me ... I tried to wiggle free from him ... but he keeps holding my hands tighter ... the water started to turn red ... I closed my eyes ... and stop breathing

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE- I wake up, annoyed by my alarm have wakened me, but grateful that they waken me from my nightmare. It's still beeping, so I turn it off.

"What a pain in the neck" I mumbled as I sat up.

I stretch, jump off my bed, and start heading to the bathroom, grabbing a towel along the way. I open the door and go in. I take off my P.J's and go inside the shower.

°•°•°•° mini time skip °•°•°•°

I get out of the shower feeling refreshed and awake. I grab my towel and wrap it around, then I head over to the sink and brush my teeth. Once I've finished I get out and go to my closet to get my clothes that I'm going to wear for today. I pick out a white tank top, a pale purple sweatshirt, black leggings, black knee-high boots, and put them on, trying to ignore the big scar that's on my stomach. I go to my dresser, pick up my hairbrush, and start brushing my very long hair. I put my hair up in a ponytail and put the brush down to open a drawer. I take out an eyepatch and put it one to cover my right eye, I let my bangs fall over my face and cover the eyepatch.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I start brushing my hair and thinking if Mimi will get up, when I hear a knock on the door.

"Destiny! You ready?" Said Mimi.

"Well look who's up early," I said with a smirk. There was a bit of silence, probably because she had rolled her eyes.

" I'm about to, just wait in the couch for me."

I put down the brush and I tie some pink bows on my Neko ears. I go to my closet and to take out my book-bag when...

"Mimi! Where is my book-bag?!" I yelled loud enough for only her to hear and not the neighbors.

"I don't know!" She yelled back. I sigh, I go to my nightstand and grab my charged phone, putting it on my back pocket. I stand in front of my mirror. I'm wearing high waist denim pants, off-the-shoulder pink knitted shirt, and white sneakers. I open my door and close it once I get out, then headed to the couch where Mimi is waiting for me.

"mmmmmMmmmmmmmMmmmmm took you long enough." She said with a slight smirk. I roll my eyes.

"Ok, now where is my bag?" I ask, raising an eyebrow. She is still smirking as she gets up and points to my book-bag she was hiding behind her back. I grab it and open it, making sure it has everything.

"I hate you," I mumbled.

"Awww, I hate me too! And I know you don't." She said. I just let out a small chuckle.

"I'm going to get our lunches, wait here or outside," I tell her. I go to the kitchen to grab our lunches as she grabs the house keys and goes outside.

°•°•°•° smol time skip °•°•°•°

"Soooooooooo." Starts Mimi to make small talk. I raise an eyebrow and she blows a small raspberry.

"What do you think the teachers will be?"

"Make out lives living hell like all teachers do because they're all sadists and loves to torture us," I answered. She had a 'confused but also trying to hold in a laugh' look.

We continue to try and make small talk as we walk to school

Mimi's P.O.V

"My. Damn. Leg. Hurt. Like. Heeeeell." I said as I bend my knees.

"We don't live that far away. How can you be tired already?" Asks Destiny.

"I must be unfit then. I'll admit (?) that I've been binge-watching horror movies a bit too much."

"Well, you can run with me in the morning." She offers

"Like hell, I would! You wake up extremely damn early." I said. She shrugs her shoulders and walks through the school's gate. I stay where I am and look up at a sign: RedWood Private Academy

I can't believe they let me and Destiny here. I mean, we did try our best in the exams in eighth grade, but still. And without parents signing anything.

"Hey Mimi! Hurry up! I found a good spot for us to sit!" Yells Destiny. I get out of my thoughts and rush to her. She'd chosen a bench near the fountain.

3rd Person P.O.V

Mimi and Destiny starts to talk about how they hope they'll have the same classes. Since both of them don't know anyone here because they're anti-social Freshman and Mimi want to rest her legs, they stay there, watching as more students come and waiting for the bell to ring. But ...... they didn't notice someone who's staring at them from a distance.
