It was the time of the year when the sun shone the brightest. A girl in her grey and white uniform lay on the grassy area of the big premises surrounded by tall fences enjoying the sun.
She laid there enjoying the sunlight caressing her delicate skin. Her life has always been full of darkness.
How she wished she could kidnap a bit of this brightness into her life to give it a little brightness. That way she would have to suffer less.
How awesome that would have been!
"So beautiful!" The girl lying on the grass said.
She shielded her eyes with her right hand only allowing a bit of the ray to pass through the spaces in between her fingers.
She doesn't only have a lovely voice but also the most unforgettable face in the entire kingdom-if not in the entire world.
But what is the use of these two things when it always gets her into trouble?
Because of the noises drawing closer, the girl with a pair of lovely purple eyes could no longer enjoy the beauty of the sun in peace.
She sits up and turns her face to peer at the side the noise comes from. She saw about four angry girls stomping towards her. Even from afar, she could recognise the four girls.
She and her best friend call them The Four Witches Of Twilight Academy. "I guess my peaceful moments are over now," The girl muttered.
"You sneaky thief! How dare you steal from me," the girl with shiny yet slightly curled black hair said. She was popularly called the Queen by the blind students who knew nothing other than fawning over a rich brat like her.
Yes, she is beautiful and always wears designer dresses, shoes, handbags and other accessories. But this expensive thing can not hide her nasty temper and prideful character. She thinks she owns the world because her father is the richest person in the kingdom.
Nobody in the school does not know Tiffany Noel and her lousy group. They were the most popular girl group not only in school but also in the kingdom.
"Today you must produce all that you have stolen from us all these years," Doris, the girl with blonde hair said. She charged forward and jerked to her feet Joanna, the most unfortunate girl in the Academy.
Joanna tried to free herself from the girl's firm grip but Doris just won't let go.
"Let go of me," Joanna continued struggling. She was about to free herself when Nora, the youngest girl in the group, pushed her down.
The prideful look on their faces seeing her nurse her bruised hands, made Joanna feel like pulling their hairs out but she held herself back.
She knew very well that nothing good will come out of trying to fight back. She will only end up suffering more not only from the cruel girls' hands but also from the hands of their male admirers.
Her stepmother and stepsister will not spare her from ruining the family's name if she caused a ruckus.
She is a werewolf but a werewolf born without powers. Tiffany and Sophie are vampires while Nora and Doris are werewolves.
The girls even without their powers have outnumbered her not to mention if they decide to use their powers.
She will not only be beaten blue-black but she will end up suffering from bone damage.
Even though she was always wronged by them she could only swallow the injustice.
She knows people think she is a coward for not fighting back but she would rather be a coward and be alive than try to play a hero and get herself killed by the ruthless girls.
"That is the most suitable place where a thief like you belong~,"
"I never stole your things so why are you treating me this way?" Joanna asked, struggling to stand up only to be violently pushed backwards by Tiffany, the leader of the group.
Her butts and her entire body hurts but she didn't say it or show any expression of pain. She has always been good at enduring pains.
"Who said you could talk with that annoying voice of yours without being permitted to?" Tiffany said glaring at Joanna. She used her hard black leather shoe to step on Joanna's right fingers.
Joanna screamed in anguish but the girls didn't care about her pain. Their expression showed they enjoyed seeing her in pain.
"Hey group of witches, will you let go of my friend or do you want me to show you what happens to mean witches like you?" They all heard a cold girl's voice coming from their back.
They didn't need to turn around to know who it was.
In the Academy, only one person would dare to stand up to them for a lowly girl like Joanna. This girl was none other than Audrey Lopez, the girl popularly known as a tomboy.
Audrey wasn't a tomboy but only enjoys wearing male clothes but the four witches gave her the title of a tomboy and that is why everyone refers to her as such.
"Here comes the tomboy!" Nora said. The girls paid no attention to Audrey. They turned back to continue what they were doing.
Before Tiffany could slap Joanna as she wanted, Audrey appeared in front of her and pushed the girl away.
Tiffany moved about five steps backwards due to the vampire strength Audrey applied to her hands.
"I said no one is allowed to touch her," Audrey shouted, her voice carrying a hint of threat. What she did made the four girls angrier.
"How dare you hit Tiff because of that low life girl….,"
"And that lowlife girl is my best friend so you better watch not only your actions but your words because I don't know where I would hit you at," said Audrey fiercely. She helped Joanna up from the warm ground.
"You might get unlucky to get hit on your face. Who knows what your face will look like if it suffers a punch from me."
Audrey helped Joanna to dust her clothes. She paid no attention to the girls whom he was sure were grim with anger.
Sophie subconsciously touched her face after Audrey spoke. She didn't even want to think about what will become of her flawless face if Audrey peradventure hits her as she said.
"How dare you defend a thief like her? Don't you know that harbouring a thief will make you a suspect?" Doris asked, moving closer to where Audrey stood shielding her friend.
Audrey shot the girl who talked a murderous glance. "Did you say Anna stole from you?" Audrey asked like she didn't hear her words.
She has been Joanna's friend for over ten years so she knows what Joanna can do and what she will never do.
"Anna has principles, there is no way she would steal. Also if she really stole from you why didn't you guys report her to the teachers or principal?"
Nora charged forward like she was the most powerful among the girls. "What principles does the daughter of a thief who almost got beaten to death have? Her mother was a thief and so is she, or what do you expect?" Nora asked with pride. Audrey clenched her fist hearing the girl bring Joanna's mother into the picture.
"I wonder why the villagers didn't beat her pregnant mother to death. If they had done that then we wouldn't have to put up with a girl like her everyday~,"
"Sophie, didn't your mother run away with another man from home when you were barely five years old?" Audrey, who couldn't handle their insolence asked to the further annoyance of the girls whose fangs and eyes had transformed.
"Does that mean you will do the same thing to your child and husband when you grow older?" Audrey completes her sentence despite how hard Joanna tries to stop her from annoying the four demons further.
"And Tiffany, isn't it a known fact that your father often beat your mother when she was alive? Rumours had it that your father beats your mother to death, will you end up…,"
"Shut the hell up, tomboy!" Tiffany's angry voice filled the air. Joanna took two steps backwards when she saw the transformed girls' murderous glances.
She knew that a great disaster awaits her.
