Troubled Times

Chapter 1: Kyra

   I walked down the small hallway of my school with my best friend Lainee. She had short bobbing brown hair and a bright face, making everyone feel happy on their saddest days.

   Now if you want to know what happened after the scenario, here you go. It's been a year since I went into the book, and my family and I had moved to a new city since Zach also returned. With a new city comes a new school, where I met Lainee and we've been best friends ever since. I've also been going outside more and actually socializing with people.

"Taaaayloooor," Lainee whined, pushing her hand up and down in front of my face. "Are you on this planet?!"

"No, I'm an alien from outer space," I drawled, making antennae with my fingers. "I've come for your milk!" Lainee gasped in terror before cuddling her book bag.

"Not my precious milk!" She wailed. "I got it for two ninety-nine!" The bell rang from above us and we turned to each other. "See you at lunch."

   "Same," I responded, walking to my first classroom.

*~*

I ran into the classroom, hoping not to be late. I sighed in relief when the bell rang not long after I arrived. I took my seat, noticing my classmate, Charlie, was missing from his seat. Must be sick, I thought to myself as Mr. Ashe started the lesson.

"Good Morning class! Today we will be learning to use ne-" Mr. Ashe was cut off as the door flung open and a student stood there, heaving. She had short auburn-ish hair and a slight tip to the nose. Her eyes almost glowed amber, and she was taking deep breaths.

   "I'm so sorry sir!" She heaved, sitting up straighter. "I'm new, and had troubles finding my way around!" She handed Mr. Ashe a slip of paper, and stood silently.

   "Alright," He finally said, nodding. He pointed to Charlie's desk and replied," you can sit there for today, the student is just sick." The girl made her way next to me and gave me a smile. I faintly smiled, an airy feeling between us. She gave me a weird feeling, as if she wasn't from around here.

   I know what you all are going to say, she isn't from around here. I mean it like, I don't know, another planet or something?

"Well class, you can welcome our new student Kyra," Mr. Ashe explained before going back to his speech.

*~*

I walked into the bustling cafeteria, gripping my lunch bag tighter to not lose it. Lainee was standing, waving her hands to me at our table. I grinned, walking over to the blue table. I sat next to Lainee, pushing my simple orange bag on the table.

I felt a deep heat in my back, and I turned to see what it was. The new girl, Kyra I believe, was staring at me, analyzing my moves. I smiled at her and waved, but she quickly turned back around.

"So weird," I whispered, turning back too.

"What Tay?" Lainee asked.

"It's just the new girl, Kyra I think," I replied. "She was staring at me weirdly."

"I can have a talk with her." Lainee gave me her look, don't mess with me.

"Nah, it's fine," I told her, taking a bite out of my sandwich. "She's new, maybe I can meet her."

"Alright, but if she tries anything.."

"I get you," I finished for her. Lainee gave me a thumbs up and I smiled back. The bell rang ahead of us, leaving time for class. "Well, see you later I guess."

"Same here," Lainee said, standing up and walking right out of there. I stood up too, but a hand pushed me back down.

   "Meet me after school at your locker, I need to talk," a voice whispered. I whipped my head around to see Kyra holding my shoulder tightly. I nodded lightly, and she let go. "Don't be late." I sat there for a second, before realizing I was going to be late, jumping out of my seat.

   "Gah!" I yelped in anger. "Kyra's going to make me late!" The late bell rang, and I huffed in anger. Whatever she wants with me better be worth it.
