'Nother Day

Spiked boots hit against the ground as she walked down the paths through the garden. A soft breeze blew through, making her black hair that was streaked with purple dye. She fingered the chains that were attached to her pants she wore, her gaze flickering to look at a few people who were chatting away. Annoying people. Sometimes she wished they could all just go away, let her live in peace for a long time. Of course, she would get lonely in that time and she knew that, especially if her brother left too. She wouldn't be able to cope if he left.

She rolled her eyes in annoyance at her own thoughts. She won't ever get peace and quiet, not for a long time. She made her way towards a bench where she plopped down, crossing her legs. She pulled her bag around in front of her and pulled out a bar of chocolate, and a journal & pen.

Breaking a piece of chocolate off and eating it, she took up her pen and starting writing on the paper, working more on her story she was working on to ease the boredom of being here. If only their mother was still alive and father not a psychotic freak, then she and her brother wouldn't have to be here, and their mother would have never let their powers be known by others and they could live a normal life, but that can never be expected now, and she accepted that, she had too.

Hallow glanced up from her writing, looking at a batch of flowers, the bright colors annoyed her almost, so she looked away, raising a hand, pressing two fingers to her forehead.

She sighed and moved her fingers away from her forehead and run a finger along the lined paper she had been writing on before her gaze was drawn to a boy who had odd colored hair and red eyes it appeared. She tilted her head to the side a moment, her black and purple hair fell over her shoulders. Her dark eyes studied the boy a moment, as she took a piece of her own chocolate and plopping it in her mouth. She almost smirked when she saw he also appeared to like chocolate. Had to be a simple coincident though.

She continued to watch him from the bench she sat cross-legged on, before she returned to her writing, but then deciding against that, she turned the page and started sketching a face, similar to the boy she had previously been looking at, though, it wasn't the best of sketchings, she wasn't exactly good at drawing, only for things she had little interest in.

Getting a little bored with this, she wondered where her brother was, and almost got a little worried with that thought. So taking another piece of her chocolate, she stuffed everything in her bag again and stood, holding the bag in one hand, just as someone ran into her, making her drop her bag, which caused her to curse savagely, then caught herself, realizing the nasty things she had just nearly yelled. Frowning, she bent over, picking up the pens that had toppled out of her bag and the few chocolate bars.

She Picked up a few of her pens, and tossed them back into her bag, and grabbed the chocolate, putting it back too. She glanced up when the boy spoke and handed her the pen. She let a half smile flicker across her face, and she stood up, and took it. "Thanks." She said, slipping it into her bag quickly, then tossing the strap of her bag over her shoulder.

"People can be such asses sometimes"

"That they can. Which is half the reason is why I avoid them. The other is because I just hate most people." She said, shrugging carelessly. She watched the boy in silence a moment before pulling strand of hair behind her ear.

"I'm Hallow, or Halloween, which'eve." She said.

She noticed the distant look in his eyes, and the tones of his voice that held little care. She actually liked it. She had always liked boys almost like him. She supposed the depressed seeming always got to her, of course, not enough to make her go all sweet like and googoo eyes at him, just enough to make her like him somewhat.

"Nice yo meet you too, Mikael." She said. She shook her head then when he asked if she was new. "No, not really. Me and my brother came here a few months ago. I never thought I'd like this place, but it works well for a home."

Which it had. It was so much better then the time they had to live with their father, who had been so cruel to them, it scared her to even think of her father.

"How are you liking the school so far?" Hallow asked.

She considered what he spoke of and then sat down on the bench again, believing that she might be here a while, unless he offered to take a short walk, but if he did she hope it wouldn't be far, she needed to stay near her brother, even if she wasn't sure where he was at. "You get disappointed a lot, I suppose?" She said, more or less as a statement.

A blind student? She had never really met someone who was blind before, but she knew if she did she would never be surprised. Finding out that her father was a psycho basically took any surprise from her.

"We my have to change that then. I've spent most of my time at the school, I haven't seen much of the land outside." She shrugged. Stayed silent a moment even after he stopped speaking. "I started it because me and my brother needed a place to stay, and mainly because my brother has some problems controlling his powers." She said, running a hand through her hair.
