~Rurik's POV

I had been walking around the school for a while now.

My new 'friends' were showing me around. The many buildings this school had all looked the same, and it was a bit confusing.

I would eventually get used to it tho. And it's not like I was paying much attention to them. The weird girl just didn't get ot of my head. She just felt so out of place in here. I liked that.

I hadn't seen her since that locker encounter, and I couldn't help but wonder who she was.

The students that saw us would never make direct eye contact with me. Probably they were too scared to talk with someone that beat up their 'most strong bullies'!

Weaklings.

We were passing through B, not one person would get in my way...

I have to admit, I was feeling rather powerful.

However, that feeling soon faded, as I sensed a pair of eyes staring right at my back...

I looked around. I didn't know who was staring, but it wouldn't continue for much longer.

I scanned the faces around me, looking for the kid that couldn't keep their eyes to themself, until they landed on a small skeleton in front of an open locker, holding an old leather book, and dressed in black clothes.

The girl from before!

We locked gazes for a moment before she broke contact, turning to the open locker, that was probably hers, and hiding her face behind the metal door and the red scarf.

I couldn't help but smirk at her reaction. She probably didn't forget what happened earlier. Well, I didn't forget it either.

Especially those fearful stares of the kids around us. They were really out of place.

And once again, I found myself wondering who the girl was, as I stared at her, the smirk still plastered on my face.

The funny moment didn't last long tho, since my 'group' was already leaving the building, shoving everyone in front of them to the ground, and calling my name, or my 'nickname', since Rurik is not my actual name, is just a code name so no one knows my real nomination, Pallete.

Fell!Pallete. (007 vibes anyone?)

You see, my parents got themselves a lot of enemies, and if any of those enemies wanted to get close to them, I am obviously the first choice. And since my name is very... original, let's say, it's easy to find my it anywhere. If I use a different name, it gets much harder to get information about me. Pratical and logical, right?

Logical or not, that's what they were calling me now. I snapped back from my transe of stares, that I didn't even noticed I was trapped in, and took a quick run to catch up with them. I was definitely gonna ask one of them about this girl now. Not too directly tho, or they might get the wrong idea.

I approached one of the human jocks. He had dirty blond hair and light blue eyes. From what they told me, he had been royalty in this schol since his first year. If she was anything important to know about, I think he could give me answers. His name was... Jack? Jake? Jim..? Uhh... I don't know, they all looked the same.

I tapped his shoulder, and he turned to face me. I was suposed to find some sort of way to mention her without seeming to interested, but then I remembered how much I didn't give a fuck, so I just shot the question instead.

"Hey, do you know anything about a weird skeleton girl in this school? "

Seriously, what's up with this girl and this school. He just froze up in the spot like I had mentioned one of the most deadly sins. She looks like a random, lonely emo kid! What's the big deal?

"So?" I insisted, impatient for an answer.

"Look dude, I get you might wanna get laid with one of your kind since you're a skeleton as well and all, but seriosly, she is not good news. You're better off with any human girl. Some monsters girls here are not bad either. As long as it's not her. I swear."

I brushed the slight bragging and arrogance of his tone aside, and continued talking like I hadn't noticed it. I needed my answers first.

And if just by that direct question he already assumed who I was referring to, which I presume is my misterious girl, than I might be closer to getting some real answers than I thought!

"So there is something about her. Mind telling me why I shouldn't get on with her?"

I mean, that was not what I was planning. At all! I can find much better by myself if I want to. But since he brought it up.

I made sure to use a more threatning tone, and approach him a bit more, just to intimidate him a little.

He gulped, and looked at the ground, answering.

"Well, there's only one female skeleton in this school. She studies here since I remember. I really don't know her name tho. Everyone around here calls her 'The Witch of Fellyas Highschool'. It's nickname we gave her. And, there are rumours, as the name says, that she is a witch! So, you don't want to get near her."

"A witch?" I snorted, amused. These guys were afraid of a girl because some idiots started saying she was a witch?!? That's just ridiculous! What kind of idiots does this school have?

"I'm not kidding! I know this may sound ridiculous, but even the teachers think that! She always wears long black vests, or whatever those things are, and a weird hood covering her face. She carries an old leather book around, wich I think is a spells book or something. But you can't read it, she doesn't let you. She never makes any friends and she almost never speaks." He explained.

I just kept looking at him, even more amused. From everything that he told 'till now, she just looks more and more like a  loner emo kid. Like I thought.

I think he noticed that I wasn't really taking him seriously, 'cause he just kept going telling me things about her.

They were mostly rumors, and stories of how she barely reacted when anyone bullied her. Kinda like what happened with me. I only got a minimal reaction out of her when I forced her to look at me. Her posture changed much more to defensive.

But then, in the middle of all that nonsense, he started telling a story that was actually interesting.

"I know this may sound hard to believe, but trust me, I know what I'm talking about. I even saw her beating up two guys once! It was a few years ago, but I remember it well! Two of my friends messed with her a lot at the time, it was during my somophore year.
It was the last day of school, and there weren't many people in the halls anymore. She was cleaning her locker, I think, when they approached her and snatched that leather book she always has with her. I think they even tried to burn it.

Then, out of nothing, she completely lost it. In the end, they both went to hospital. I remember that hallway was a bloody mess. I really don't know how she was able to continue at school "

My eyes widened. A bloody mess?!?

This guy has to be stretching the story way too far to make her look like a psycho in front of me.

It's impossible that a simple, lonely highschooler is able to do that... Right?

"This is not made up, I swear. I was there, I saw it. She may look innocent, but believe me, she's not!"

This was extremely difficult to believe, and yet, the guy looked terrified, much more terrified than when he was telling the other rumors, seconds ago.

Maybe there was a bit of truth in this one...

Well, this had been interesting. But he was still very rude to me, and I didn't forget that tone earlier that he let slip by.

"So the best thing you can do is stay away from that girl, and look for someone else so--"

I grabbed his right shoulder, and punched him in the stomach, the others around us instantly backed away, probably didn't want to get caught in the middle of the fight.

If this can even be called a fight, I mean. He bent down immeadiately, holding his stomach, not looking at me as he choked out.

"D-dude, what the hel-ll?!?"

I smirked. This guy is pathetic!

"That is for being racist about monsters,"

I punched him in the guts again. He leaned against the wall, trying to keep himself from falling.

"That is for telling me lies and false rumours,"

And the cherry on top of the cake...!

"This one is for telling what to do."

I punched him one last time, and he finally fell to the ground, hugging himself, pratically crying.

Damn, this guy truly was pathetic!

"Next time, don't tell who I should, or not, go after, got it?"

He didn't even bother to answer. Wich is good, 'cause if he tried to speak, I would probably punch him again, or kick him maybe, that would've been fun too.

I crouched next to him, and lifted his head by his hair, just to see his face.

My smirk grew wider.

His face was priceless. Terrified and extremely confused, just like I like it. And a single line of red blood running down his chin. 

"Tch!" I finally let go of his hair, making him hit the hard floor again, and taking a last glance at the body lying on the ground, I got up and walked away from it. Everyone around us was staring either at me or him, shocked and terrified expressions on their faces...

Great.

Seems like these people have finally started to understand who came to their school this year. Not another cocky jock, or ridiculous bully.

 No, I'm nothing like that... And I'll make sure that no one in this school dares to compare me to one. 

With my signature smirk plastered on my face, I left the rest of the students that were following me 'till now, and alone, I headed to my next class, PE.

Well, this is gonna be an interesting period...

~~~~~~~~~~~

HALELUIA!!! ITS FINISHED!! IM NOT DEAD!(even tho i made that A/N....) WHATEVER!

I hope you all had a good Christmas and beggining of the year!!! I did! I guess...

Once again Im sorry it took me so much time to update, school is really a bitch, it kept from updating.

Fun fact, Im currently writing this at school... I didnt have History 'cause my teacher accidently locked her husband at home. She had to go back home to free him. Sooo... Yeah!

We can all thank Ms. Céu!

Hope you all like this chapter, it took a lot of effort to make. Also, I know the music doesn't have much to do with the chapter, but they have the same title, so, I put that one.

Im not so confident about the last part tho... I'd really apreciate feedback, if you can.

I think that's all

Ok, bye :p
