Anya's Pov: A Narrative Fiction

Anya's Pov.

"And this is the library," the principle droned. I kept standing on my tip toes and then went back to standing flat on my feet. "Books can be checked out for 3 weeks before becoming overdue. You are welcome to come here during lunch and after classes." he continued. I spotted this girl with black hair and bright blue ends. Wicked! I thought, I had always wanted bright blue hair but my mom wouldn't allow me. She liked my golden hair, I have no idea why. I walked over to the girl. "Hello! My is Anya," I began excited, "Who are you?" I asked. I noticed a girl who was standing next to the girl with sick hair turn around. The girl had very pale skin, and cool, mint green eyes. I wonder if she's a vampire? If she is, I so want her turn

me! I thought. "I'm Robin! Daughter of the Cheshire cat" The girl with blue hair smiled mischievously, a spark of childishness in her mysterious blue eyes. "Who's your parent" "oh! That's what I forgot to mention, my mom is Rapunzel, although I don't live with her. They are my next door neighbors-ish." I replied a smile on my face and my bouncing returning. She stared at me confused. The girl next to her looked up for a moment. "Do you not know the story of Rapunzel?!" I asked slightly offended, "Well in the story Rapunzel's mom craves a plant called Rapunzel. Her father steals the herb from the 'witch next door. One day he gets caught and he explains his story. The 'witch' tells him its fine as long as she gets the baby. Then boom, I'm taken away from my parents." Her face relaxed. "Yeah, I guess your story starts a lot earlier than everyone else here," she said "It must suck not really knowing you're family" "It's better than being locked up in a tower," I shrugged. "This is my friend Sabrina" she changed the subject and indicated to the pale girl with raven hair. Sabrina smiled a little at me. "Ahem." the principle cleared his throat. "Is there something you would like to share with the group, girls?" he asked his eyes narrowed. "uh... No?" I quickly waved goodbye and walked away. Well this year should be fun! Already started out great.

Sabrina's POV.

The girl, Anya, waved and mixed into the group. Robin looked at me and rolled her eyes. "You're so quiet, Bri, you should try socializing sometime" she teased. "Miss Cat, I heard about your talkative ways. I'm going to have to keep an eye on you. Now will you please shut up and listen?!" The principle snapped at her. I smirked at her. There's a reason I don't talk I thought. I don't want to get in trouble. Robin stuck her tongue out at me. The group gravitated out of the library and back into the hallway. "And that concludes our Freshman tour. When I call your name, please come and get your dorm room assignment, and go there. Your things should be in the room already." The Principle said. He started to call names, and people started to gradually disappear. "Rayne Trident" He called. A familiar girl with red hair and slightly scaly legs stepped forward. A whisper echoed across the group. "She's so beautiful" "She's my Idol" I rolled my eyes. Of course. Every high school has got to have their popular girl. She stood off to the side for a moment. "Evan Prince" A boy with dark hair and stunning blue eyes walked towards the principle. He took his slip of paper and walked towards the red head, Rayne, and took her hand. They walked away from the group. "Anya Sprout" Anya took her paper and skipped off. "Jay Green" A boy with green eyes and golden brown hair pushed through the crowd to get his paper. "Keilah Hook" A boy with dark hair stepped forward, a proud look on his face. He also triggered a whisper "He's so dreamy" "Wow he's a bad ass" I sighed. No high school is complete without a bad boy either. "Remus Smee" another boy followed. "Robin Cat." the principle called. "Oh, that's my queue" Robin winked. Her image started to fade, leaving only her smile, that too disappearing eventually. She reappeared at the front. I had always been a little jealous of the power she inherited from her dad. "Sabrina Witch." My head shot up. People stared at me. Another whisper erupted. But this time it wasn't flattering. "Oh my gosh she's so pale!" "Is that a vampire?" "I hear her mom is a demon" I hung my head again and walked towards the front. There's the last essential part of a high school. The loser. Sometimes I wish I could escape from all this, and not have to follow in my mom's evil footsteps. She's Maleficent. Yeah. The evil fairy that tried to kill a princess because she was discriminated. It's stupid. I took my paper and walked away. I unfolded it looking at it, almost afraid to know. 'Robin Cat' I let out a breath of relief, and walked to find my dorm.

Keilah POV
I walked away from the group of students. I don't anyone will want to be on my bad side. I smirked to myself and looked at my slip. 'Remus Smee'. I raised an eyebrow. I thought that wasn't going to happen, but it did. "Remus!" I called over my shoulder. "coming!" I heard behind me and scurrying feet. We had climbed at least 5 flights of stairs when we reached our dorm. '63Z'. I checked the room number on the door. This is correct. I opened the door quickly banging it into the wall. I stepped outside of the reach of the door and heard an ow from behind me. I spun quickly and saw a door in Smee's face. I erupted in laughter. Now I really wish I had a video camera with me. Remus glared at me and carefully shut the door holding his nose. I rolled my eyes and walked over to my side of the room. "Crap!" I heard him yell," My nose is bleeding." "No shit, Sherlock." I replied. Why wouldn't his nose be bleeding?! I unpacked a few of a pants and shirts and that kinda a stuff and then flopped down on my bed. "Hey! Smee?" "yes?" I heard him say, hesitatingly. "can you get me a coke?" "uh... Sure." I heard him walk out. Does he not have an opinion for himself. I thought of this plenty of times and then I realized, if he did, the story wouldn't really work out as well, and I can make him get me things. So, I like him not having an opinion. It had been about 10 minutes and Smee was still not back. "how long does it take!" I mumbled. Right after I said that the door opened and Smee stood I. The doorway with a coke in his left hand and a displeased expression on his face. Smee closed the door and walked over to me grumbling about how Lunch ladies are bitches. He handed me my coke and I waited till Smee plopped down on his bed. I opened my mouth to speak. Smee's back was to me so I was slightly surprised when he said, "Don't you dare." I shut up right after that. I didn't want to lose my friend\butler.

Rayne's POV

I looked at my slip.

Anya Sprout. Who's that? I wondered. "Hey Rayne," Evan caught up to me and grabbed my hand I smiled "Hey babe" I said. "Who are you with?" "Some guy named Jay" he answered, looking at his slip. "Never met him." "It'll be fun to meet new people" I said. He nodded in agreement. "So are you trying out for swim team tomorrow?" he asked, already knowing the answer. "Do fish live in the sea?" I asked as an answer to the question. "I barely even need to try out though. I know I'm getting in." My mom is The little mermaid. Yeah. That’s why I have scales on my legs. This has made me the fastest swimmer ever to attended a fairytale school. That, along with my singing voice and good looks have really contributed to my popularity. We walked up the many flights of stairs. "Well this is my floor" Said Evan. "Room 48D" he kissed me on the cheek and walked away. I continued up the stairs. I don't know why my room was up so high. Top floor. I didn't always feel comfortable in the air. But oh well, I'll deal. I opened the door and walked in. My roommate was already sitting on her bed. "Hello! She started, "my name is Anya. My mother is Rapunzel. That is why our dorm is so high. I have to live in a tower right now. Technically I am already breaking the rules but, who cares." She finished with a huge breath. Apparently she had said that in one go. I mentally face palmed. I have to spend the year with a hyperactive weirdo. Great. "I'm Rayne… Daughter of the little mermaid…"

"cool. Have any hobbies?" the hyperactive weirdo asked. "Um… Swimming and music…" I moved slowly towards my bed, trying to keep my distance. I wasn't all that interested in my new roommate. I was actually hoping she would leave me be, or I would get some terrible grades. That would not be a good first year of learning how to fulfill my destiny. "cool!" she smiled," well I can notice you trying to get some distance so. I'll leave you alone for now." the weirdo turned around and started unpacking. I did the same. I folded everything neatly and organized my area. We each got a desk to do work at. I set it up neatly and decorated it with pictures of my family, who I wouldn’t see till December, and then only for two weeks. I sighed and continued unpacking

Anya's POV

I could tell Rayne didn't really like me. I really hope that the hurt didn't show on my face. I decided that I would try and leave her alone as much as possible. I quickly unpacked not really caring where anything went. I looked out the window. There was no water underneath it! I had asked for water to be beneath the window! Now I have to take the stairs. I took my hair and braids into like 9 braids and then braided them together. Then I braided those into one braid. So really, the point is I had long hair. I ran quickly down the stairs. I felt like looking through the books. While I was running down the steps, I ran into someone. We ended up in a big pile of limbs at the bottom of the stairs. "I'm so sorry," I said. I looked around us, no one was there. I looked at our position. He ended up on top of me. I looked at his face and remembered him as Jay. He quickly got up blushing. "I'm sorry." he muttered. "no, its all my fault." I responded quietly. I looked up at him. That was when I felt my cheeks get red. "I got-gotta go." I stammered running in the direction in the library.

Sabrina's POV

I walked up the stairs In silence, avoiding eye contact with anyone I passed.

My room wasn't that far up. Only 21E. Second floor. I opened the door. Robin had already tarted setting up. All of her stuff was blue and purple. "Hey Bri! Great luck we have, huh? She piped enthusiastically. I smiled. "Yeah. I sat down on the bed and started setting up. I set up some art supplies on the desk. I really liked to draw. "Do you think there's an art club Robin?" I asked anxiously. "Yeah, probably. I mean it's HIGH SCHOOL. What club isn't there" She had a point I shrugged and continued. 'I wonder if anyone is going to actually talk to me this year' I thought. If I had the chance to escape my destiny, I would definitely do it. I'm tired of people thinking I'm a monster because my mom was. I wish they would give me a chance. My face didn't help my reputation. I'm a white as a sheet, and my eyes look like poison. I'm a walking

disaster.

Keilah's POV
I decided to rake a walk around school. As soon as I walked out I heard girls following me whispering and giggling. Why do girls giggle? Anyways really I was walking around and being stalked. Nothing new. At one point one of the girls actually tried to talk to me. This is new. I thought. Although what she talked to me about wasn't knew. "so what do you think of a blah-blah type of shoe?" she had asked me. "here's 50 bucks. You can have it if you leave me alone." she immediately took it and started squealing with her girlfriends. They all were probably going out to go get shoes anyway. I rounded a corner and saw something I thought I would not have seen. I hid behind a pillar and watched the drama unfold. Some guy had landed on top of a girl, with really long hair? Anyways no drama happened. No slapping, making out, e.t.c. Just blushing and running away. Boring! I could've used black mail. I turned around all casual like. I gave the guy a knowing smirk, he seemed to blush even harder. This is getting better, I thought.

Rayne POV

After a while, Anya left. Thank GOD. I pulled out my phone and dialed Evan's number "Hello?" he answered slowly. "Hey, we should explore a little. Meet at the bottom of the stairs in 5?" I asked. "Sure" He hung up. I stood up, and walked down the stairs. It takes at least 5 to do this. 'My legs are going to fall off by the end of the year if I have to keep walking these stairs' I thought as my legs started to cramp. As I reached the last step, my ankle twisted, and I fell down. "Shit!" I muttered. Suddenly I felt arms catch me. "Watch your step, fins" I looked up to see a guy with dark hair, " Keilah?" I asked recognizing him. We were friends a long time ago. He smirked. "Yeah, it's me. Surprised you recognize me." he said jokingly. Stood up awkwardly. "Oww" I collapsed on my ankle. "I recommend not standing on that ankle." Keilah rolled his eyes. At that moment, Evan came down the stairs. He saw me on the ground. "Rayne you okay?" He asked. He helped me up, supporting me. His face hardened when he saw Keilah. They'd never liked each other. "Keilah.. What a… pleasant surprise…" "Same to you. Oh and you might want to take better care of your girlfriend. She just tripped and fell. She could have damaged her pretty face." Evan glared at him. "We should go." He helped me walk away from the stairs. "Bye love birds!" Keilah yelled after us.

Keilah POV
I hate Evan, I thought. I swear once they started dating she didn't even really know me anymore. I guess that is a good thing. I am captain hook. I sighed. Why did I always have to be a dick? I asked myself. Wait! Something interesting happened in my life! Then I slumped on the ground. Ya but nothing else will be as interesting. Why does life have to be so hard? Especially since Peter Pan's son, Liam? Had the dorm next to me. He was always shouting profanities at us. Does Rayne like me, as a friend? Does she hate me? Is she glad she left? Regret it? Why should I care? I was evil. All I was going to do was reproduce, get in a fight with Liam and then like die or something. Okay sorry if I am wrong. I don't listen to the stories very much. I stood back up and headed to where I could get a snack or something. I went to ask for something and the lunch lady made WWIII out of it. So I just backed away. Ahhhh, there is the coward within. Anyways Smee was right, Lunch ladies are bitches.

Jay's POV

I sat on a bench in the courtyard. I heard yelling coming from inside.'im glad came in.. Wouldn't want to be a part if that.' the voices stopped and a couple came out. One was limping. I sighed. I really hate awkward moments. I wonder who that girl was. She had really nice hair. I felt my phone buzz in my pocket. "Yo" I answered. "Hey dude. Hows day one going?" It was Remus. We'd been friends since elementary school "Umm.." I answered not wanting to mention the situation I was just in. "Fine.." I said slowly. He could tell I was hiding something. "Yeah I know, it sucks. Keilah's being a dick as usual. God I just wanna tear his head off sometimes. But hey, It's my destiny to do what he says" he said, annoyed. I nodded, though he couldn't see me. "That's how he is. Im glad he doesn't really know who i am" I could tell Remus was rolling his eyes. "Man, you're so lucky" I changed the subject. "Do we have classes today?" "I don't know. What day is it?" I mentally face palmed " Man Im dumb. Sunday" I sighed. "Well I should finish getting organized. Hope life improves" "See ya" I hung up. My mind flicked back to that girl again. 'I hope I see her again' I thought.

Anya's POV
I walked quickly, almost running, through the hallways. I also felt my cheeks going red at the thought of which happened. Then I stopped suddenly. What if my 'mom' found out! She would be very disappointed! Maybe she won't find out? I thought meekly to myself. I started my journey again at a slower pace. I thought about what I thought might interest me in the library. I arrived to find it closed. Really?! I thought to myself. I retraced my steps my mind wandering. Who was he? I wonder if he is in my grade? Oh no. This is making it worse! I might slip up and tell 'mother'. I found a tiny garden and sat. The garden had many colors of roses and was beautiful. I started humming a tune I didn't know the name to. Is he thinking of me? Banish those thoughts Anya! I yelled mentally. "And now I'm mental. Great" I sighed. Nothing good will come of this. I didn't want to have anyone grow close to me. Why? You ask. Because once I do, they either impregnate me or something else, and my 'mom' finds out. Throwing them out of the tower and into the thorns. Speaking of thorns, I looked up. There was my room at the very top. If you were thrown out you would land in the thorns. "great," I muttered rolling my eyes. Over-protective mothers. I sighed and continued thinking. Of course, in a way that will get me thrown out and to live I the wilderness.

Sabrina's POV

I exited the room, a hoodie pulled over my face hiding me. I walked downstairs. There was a boy sitting at the bottom of the staircase, staring into space. I remembered him as "the bad boy". I tried to walk past unnoticed. No such luck. "Hello, Vampy." Great. I already had an "affectionate nickname" from him. I adjusted my hood and tried to ignore him. Something hit me. No, literally, something hit me between my shoulder blades. I noticed a crumpled wad of paper on the floor. "Im Keillah" he sneered from behind me. I tried to keep going. "Ah, so you're not the social type. I hate those people." I stopped and turned to look at him, my sharp gaze meeting his. "Look 'Keillah'," I emphasized the name sarcastically. "I dint know what kind of selfish prince raised you up to be this bully, but you can't just push people around like its nothing. They care. And yeah, u should be used to this, but come I it still bothers a person even after years if being made fun of." I glared at him. His eyes widened a little and his jaw tightened. "My dad was no prince," he spat, "He was the best pirate this world has ever seen." "Well then stop being a dick to people and go find some gold to bathe in!" I shot back. I didn't have to tolerate this guy. "How about you go and drink some blood," he mumbled. He clearly wasn't used to being stood up to. I sighed, feeling a little guilty of how low he seemed to sink after that comment. "Have a nice day" I murmured, and promptly walked away from him.
