Chapter 5



The demolition boys





The main hall was silent but that silence was then broken by a group of boys of about 15.



The boys were all dressed in black jeans with boots and belts all identical, their leader a boy of 17, his hair a flaming red, his eyes a ice blue, he was the sort of boy who commanded attention, the others walking several steps behind him.



He was wearing a white jacket that covered his mouth

“I sure hope Kai gets back soon it's fracking boring without him here” he said



“I know what you mean Tala,” said one of the other boys walking forwards and putting his hand on Tala's shoulder



His name was Spencer; this action drew glares from two of the other boys, Tala noticing this pushed Spencer's hand off.



“Get off will you,” said Tala.



...Huh what's going on?...... she wondered



“Becky, Becky” Max was trying to get her attention she ignored him she was watching the boys who didn't seem to have noticed her, they split into pairs and Ian and Spencer seemed to be having a heated discussion.



“What do you think you were doing Spencer?”



“What do you care what I was doing, Ian” he retorted



“You were practically drooling on him for fracks sake”



“Yea so what at least he cares”



“He doesn't care he's using you” Ian turned his back to hide a tear that threatened to fall



“How do you know that, can you prove it?” demanded Spencer



“I just do” Ian ran off down the corridor



“Baby” muttered Spencer turning away and walking off in the opposite direction



“What's up with those two?” asked Bryan who clearly wasn't paying attention



“Becky, Becky” again Max tried to get her attention



“Here let me try,” said Tyson going up behind her and yanking on her hair



“Ouch, that bloody hurt, what was that for?” she quickly turned on Tyson



“It wasn't my fault, blame Max” she turned to look at Max who looked at Kenny who in turn looked at Tyson, then without warning she launched her blade at Tyson



“WHITE DRIGGER GET HIM”



She shouted then there was a flash of white light and an almighty

“OWW” from Tyson when the light vanished Tyson was sporting a red face and 3 very clear scratch marks



“What the hell was that for,” complained Tyson holding his hands to his cheek



“Don't pull my hair again, or you'll get worse next time” she said raising her blade again



“Ok ok I wont” whimpered Tyson cower on the floor, she growled slightly making Tyson cower even more



“Good see that you don't” she said glaring at him, she lowered her blade; but didn't put it away; Tyson's eyes were still fixed on it.



A certain redhead watched her ……her performance, with the power she holds, her inner-strength, stronger than me, maybe even stronger than kai, she is one to watch…



Rebecca felt his eyes on her; she spun around on her heel and found herself face to face with him, her pupils silted and her fangs lengthened, but she didn't move and neither did he.



They stood there for what seemed an eternity gazes never faltering once, both sides held their breath wary of the tension between the two, then Tala dropped his head, he looked back at his team with shame in his eyes then he looked back at Rebecca again she smiled eyes normal and fangs small and hidden



“Hi I'm Rebecca, I'm new here”



“My name's Tala and this is my team, well they were here, this is Bryan and the other two were Ian and Spencer”



“Nice to meet you, well I'd better get going bye” she said



“Bye then” said Tala their eyes met again ice blue into sapphire and with a nod he led his team away



She laughed softly to herself before turning to Tyson



“Well, that was one way of meeting them… Tyson”

He started backing away



“Its ok I won't hurt you” she looked at the scratches on his cheek running her thumb across the 3 cuts



“Sorry for these, but you know you did pull my hair”



“Only cause you weren't listening”



Becky turned her body so she was looking at the double doors that Tala and Bryan had left by



“I was listening, it just wasn't to you guys” she said eyes fixed on the slightly swinging doors



“Well catch me up, I'm gonna go get some food” shouted Tyson as he ran down the hall and through another pair of doors



“Becky?” asked Max



“Yea Maxi” she responded



“Try and stay away from them,” he said



She turned to face him “why?”



“It's just that… they're the kids you don't want to piss off or you could end up getting hurt”



“And your point is Max?” she asked him



“Doesn't that faze you?” he cocked his head confused



She shook her head “no, why.. Should it?”



“Well yea they like rule the school, and believe me you do not want to get on their bad sides”



She sighed “and what would the point of that be, I'm not gonna lie down and die just cause some kids tell me to, after all everyone should have the right to have fun” she said fingering the locket around her neck



Max glanced after Tyson and walked off waving to a blond boy who passed them



“Hey Enrique” he called



“Hey Max” the other boy waved before leaving through the main doors and heading out onto the grounds



Becky put her blade in her jeans pocket and headed out towards where she had last seen the blond boy Enrique



She walked over to a tree she had noticed from her room and quickly climbed it ……where are all the other kids?…… she asked herself, she looked out and spotted a running track and a trio of boys running laps and a girl watching them



The girl left as Becky dropped from the tree and walked over to them



“Hi, new?” asked one of the boys with brown and messy hair



She nodded “Rebecca ling, and you are?”



“Michael” he said



“This is Eddy,” he said pinching the basketball from the tallest of the 3



“And Steve” he said nodding towards the boy with the football helmet on who nodded at Becky and then grabbed the ball from the side of the track and ran to the other side of the field.



“Don't mind him” said Michael tossing his baseball up in the air, he went for the ball but Becky was faster



“Too slow, mate” she said tossing it up in the air



Her phone beeped “what the?” she tossed the ball to him and opened it, then a smile appeared on her face



“What?” asked Michael looking confused

She grinned, “gotta go” then she walked off, and climbed the stairs to her room, she unlocked it and headed for the shower turning on her CD player as she went then she washed her hair which took a while and then put it in a lose pony-tail held with a black ribbon, she turned the CD player off and climbed into her soft warm bed.



The clock on her table glowed a luminous green and illuminated her silver blade on the side it showed the numbers 00:49.
