On the next month, Max and Lily send me to a school for the first time since I already had controlled my power because it is time for me to learn and get new friends but I was so afraid actually. I was in the middle midterm school because everyone in the school had already far away study than me and I was the only one who left behind.

I was wearing a simple baby blue dress with ribbon on my chest and a lace all around my skirt. When I entered into the classroom, every student in here were all staring at me especially at my arms that being wrapped by like a corpse especially they wondered why I wrapped my arms like that and its black?

Some look curious and some look odd when they looking at me because of my hair and my arms. Every child here was all had a normal hair colour like brown and blonde but my hair was beyond of that. It's was grey and no one had ever had a grey hair except for the older of course. But the older had a light grey instead even when they saw my hair, they also look at me that I was a very peculiar child to them.

So far the school seem normal and the students here were all ignoring me and whispering about me but when lunch was started, all the students went to the café to get some foods. I went to the café alone and once I had my foods in my tray, I try to find a place to eat but so it seems that every time I went to one of the students table, they will chase me away from their table.

Clearly that I'm not invited to enjoy with them. After a while, I finally found an empty table and sit there but a girl with blonde hair pull out the chair that I was about to seat and fell on the ground. The girl laughs along with her friends. I think I heard her name is Chloe.

"This is our seat. You go away from us and we won't bother you anymore." She said with a laughter and sit there with her friends who are still laugh.

I take my foods with me and headed out from the café. I don't know where do I want to seat but I just decide to sit under the tree that nearby. At least it was nice sitting here because I can enjoy the nature more while enjoying my lunch.

I looked at my locket and open it. There was a picture of my family, all four of us. The locket was the only thing that I have to remember about my family and I can feel a tears flow on my soft cheeks. While wiping my tears on my cheek, a young little boy about my age came to me. He was walking limp because he's using a crutches to help him walk properly

"Can I sit here with you?" Before I can even answer his question, he already put down his crutches on the tree trunk and sitting beside me with his foods.

While munching his apple, he looked at me with a smile on his face. His body look small and fragile even though he was in the same age as me and he had a very disheveled hazelnut hair with olive green eyes but when I looked at his leg, it was wrapped in a cast. His green eyes look at me and know what was I was staring at.

"Last week I was in an accident and hurt my knee. The doctor said that after they open the cast, I might limp for the rest of my life. Well it was suck that I can't running like I used before but at least I still have my leg though. So where are you from anyway because I never see you around here before? Beside this town was hardly to have a new people around here."

"I'm from London."

"Wait isn't there was a war before?"

"Yes I know and I don't want to talk about it."

Everyone know that in London, there was a war before and many soldier had died. Children and woman had already moved out from the city even before the war hitting the city but somehow me and my family didnt have a time to run away from the chaos.

Silent accompany the both of us and it's a little awkward too but somehow he doesn't look mad and offended by my outburst instead he just gave me a sympathy smile on his face.

'Oi Ollie, what ya doing there, mate?" I heard another voice, another boy with his friends came near to where we were sitting.

"He is sitting with that peculiar girl." Said one of his friends.

"They make a cute and odd couple together. So perfect." Another boy said with a chuckled and a smug grin on his face.

"An odd girl with a pathetic limb boy. It's a perfect match, yeah mate?" Said the first boy. They were all laughing and messing around with the boy called Ollie, they even pour the juice on his head and eat his lunch. He is now in soaking wet because of the juice and they just laughing at him.

"Stop it David!"

He said but the boy name David just ignore him and make fun about his leg. After the three boys left him just like that, Ollie just stand there and grabbed his crutches and left her alone.

I feel so bad to him because three boys against one boy. They bullying him just because he was disabled of walking and she decide to follow him instead.

He went to the pump water to clean himself and one of his crutches fell on the ground. I quickly grabbed it for him and that makes him startled when he saw me. I gave him a small smile for him and gave him my handkerchief. He felt so ashamed and doesn't know what to talk about.

"You should wipe your face with this."

He looked at her and took the handkerchief from her hand with a smile.

"Thank you. By the way, I didnt know your name before."

"It's Luna Blackwoods but I live with the Lehmanns family."

"The Lehmanns family? I though they don't have any child of their own."

"I was adopted obviously."

"Oh sorry. I didn't know that. It's a dumb question."

"Don't be." I give him a smile and he do the same too.

"The Lehmann. I know them. Max Lehmann was my father's friend."

"Well that's good."

"Hey maybe I can come over to your house sometimes. We can play."

"But what about your leg?"

"Don't worry about it. I loved coming to their house because they have a beautiful meadow and I loved playing there even though sometimes my mother wouldn't allow me to come there anymore because of my condition."

"I would love that."

The bell started to ringing to tell that class would be started soon and before both of them were apart for another class, she called him.

"Oi, I didnt know your name yet."

"Ollie Steiner. See you after school." He said and went to his class and so as her too.
