Misty's POV-

We walked down my driveway, and onto the gravel road that lead to the main road.

"How come you never take the bus, Nuri?" I asked.

"Because I don't want to," Nuri responded.

"Well.... Specific," I growled. He turned away from me and continued walking. I stared after him. What's his deal? I ran after him.

We followed the main road till we came into town. It was a fairly big town, despite it's name, Trokhy Town (Little Town). Most of the buildings were 4-5 stories and the houses were 1-2 stories. It was a colorful town. Most of the work buildings were gray or brown, but the houses were almost every color on the color wheel. The school was the widest building. Teaching all the kids, over 300, in the town.

We walked down the hill toward the town. I love to just stand on the top of the hill and stare down at the town, you can see the whole town from the hill top. I looked at the clock on my phone. 6:40! Oh, crap. It'll still take me and Nuri about a half hour to get to the school and class starts at 7:00!...

I pulled on the handle on the back of Nuri's bag, "time to run." He looked down at his wrist watch, and his eyes widened. "Race ya to school!" I shouted behind me as I bolted ahead of him. He chased after me.

We ran through the maze of buildings. 6:50 I don't think we're gonna make it...

Nuri and I were about to run across a street when a hand wrapped around the handle on my backpack, and one around the hood of Nuri's his coat.

"Wha-!?" I heard Nuri yelp in surprise as a car sped in front of where we would have been running across.

I turned around. "L-Loki?"

"You two are idiots."

I turned around to look at our savior, Loki Arjan. He was about 5ft 9inches, about half a foot taller than Nuri and I. He always wears a baseball cap, (even in school and the teachers allow it) and a black hoodie. He has black hair and golden eyes. "Watch where you run, you two."

Nuri let out a sigh, "thanks, Loki."

"No problem. We're gonna be late, though, if we don't hurry." Loki walked along the crosswalk. Nuri and I glanced at each other, glad to not be pancakes, and followed Loki.

I turned and saw a shady man watching us from an alley way. He was wearing a long, tan coat, and a black hat. That was all I could see, there were shadows covering his face. It made me feel uneasy... Nuri and Loki stopped and waited for me. I glanced at the man, then shrugged off the uneasiness, and walked after both the boys.

~At School~

The long halls were crowded as usual.

"I would have preferred to be late. There would have been less people..." Nuri complained.

"Don't be such a baby," I joked, walking to locker 164 (Nuri's and my locker, we share). I grabbed out my math book. The bell rang.

I think I'll spare you the boring details of school. If you really want to know the classes we have, I'll tell you.

~After School~

"Well... Another extremely boring day at school." Nuri burst out the front school doors with Loki trailing him."Ahhh... Yes. Freedom."

"Drama queen," I followed Loki out.
