"Dad"the little girl called, she was under a table as she watched her dad been shot on the leg.
the man who seem to be her father turned with widened eyes shocked to see his daughter under a table. "What the hell is she doing here"he ask him self.
He turned to focus on his opponent so as not to make him suspicious in any way.
The little girl eyes wandered about around the place,she squinted her eyes looking at the place that was suppose to be a center of celebration and was now a sea of dead bodies.
she was about stepping out from her hiding spot when she was dragged so rough making her yelp in pain
"leave me"she struggled but the man went into deaf ears.
"Bastard I said leave me "she yelled, the next second the man tired to her and said:
"shut up little brat"the man in a black attire commanded in a husky voice intimidating the little girl of five years but what did the little girl did shocked him
"Are u deaf or stupid I said leave me you infected venom"
the man was dumb stuck how could this little kid insult like tho she is talking to her mates.
The man instantly yanked the little girl by the throat,she clutched the mans hand wiggling her little legs on the air
"HOW DARE YOU"the man thundered the little girl was already grasping for air she was slowly losing consciousness.The man was still hardening his grip on the little girls neck.
For some reason he was about losening his grip on the girl when he was knocked out.Blood dripped from his fore head down to his neck, he had let the girl go and she landed on the ground with a loud thud. The man slowly turned to see a woman in a wedding dress and was holding a hammer he to fell with a loud thud and he died instantly.
"LAURA ,LAURA,LAURA "a little boy had ran over to his friend the was lying unconscious as he shakes her vigorously
"Harry we need to take her to the hopital" the woman in a wedding dress said she new how much the little girl lying in the floor meant to her little nephew,she knew he loved her but to her that was ridiculous that type was not love at all perhaps just young lust at the wrong age.
She lifted the little girl from u the floor and went to a safer plac,But no were was safe any more.
They were under attack by people they don't even know,this mysterious people have been attacking them for the past six months now the have tried all possible ways to fine out any slight information about them but know nothing.
LATER...
After a long battle a stretcher was willed to the operating theartre. when the door shut the red light came on making every one know it is a restricted area for time being.
THE hospital has gone crazy finding out that the president was coming and even when they saw his lifeless body covered in blood they went wild.
At the operating room outside were few number of people out side some where pacing,some looking aloof and depressed while the ladies cried.
The doctor came out only to behold worried faces "He is alright" the doctor told them all they need to know before he left.
HOURS LATER....
two couple were on a heated discussion.
"lurana please don't decline this its for the safety of our children, please agree and understand that what I am doing is goog"the man said, the woman's throat became dry she was worried about what her husband want to say and has been speaking in riddles
"Honey what do you mean?"she asked and the man claps hands together with his wife
"seperate our children"he said and the woman went dumb stuck
"Hon..."
"SHUT UP"the woman interrupted she began breathing heavily.
"But honey...." the man tried calling
"I SAID SHUT UP"The woman interrupted and fainted
16 YEARS LATER...
The sun shone brightly and the early breeze was strong,the grass shrudderd and the leaves swayed left and right according to the
winds command.
Inside a room was a comfortable brown skin girl sleeping soundly,Her hair was scattered and she laid in a rough manner.
A woman in her early forties came in with a laundry basket,she sighs seeing her child in that postion at an early our
"Sylvia,Sylvia,Sylvia wake up sleepy head"the woman tapped the brown girl but she only turned,the woman sighed again and opened the curtains.The girl shook her head to avoid the disturbance of the rays
"SYLVIA,SYLVIA wake up."she called again.
"Ooooh, mom allow me to sleep a little longer."the girl wined and her frowned.
"young missdo you have any Idea what the time says?."the asked
"What ever 6:00am now let me sleep"the girl still wined.
"Do you know what today is?"

"OH MY GOSH,SYLVIA get up. Do you want to be late for ...".
OH MY GOD"she gasp,removing her blanket off her body
" I am gonna be late for school"she hurriedly got up and ran to the bathroom, she stepped in but looked at her mother who was sitting down on her bed, giving her that "did you do it for me" and she gave a nod.
Minutes later Sylvia hopped on on leg while wearing her shoe on the other leg.she ran back to her room putting all necessary books she needed,she ran out.
She descend down stairs to see her little brother carl eating
"Morning big sis"he greeted with an adorable face
"Morning" she greeted back.
Carl isn't the brown skin girl(Sylvia's) brother, not adoptive nor biological miss lurana found him near the house when he was a little baby.
"shit I'm late"sylvia cursed as she ran into the kitchen carring few toast bread into a small lunch flask,she dashed out
"don't forget to pick carl."miss lurana reminded
"Oh yeah " she ran back to the house picking up a key that was lying on a small book shelf
"okay by mom, bye little bro"she bade her white mother and brother.
'"Bye sis,Bye" carl and miss lurana bade her as well.
"Shit this is bad,this is bad,I'm gonna be late and on my first day at Empire high this is a curse. "she was pacing as she hurriedly
entered a cab.
SYLVIA point of view.....
Hey world sorry for not giving a proper introduction.My name is Sylvia Lurana, a brown girl but not just any brown skin girl, I am a brown girl with blue eyes.
Having a white mother and a white brother with me being the only black people often critize me for that,And I actually don't know were I inherited that from.
I lost my dad on the day I was giving birth to so.. things are pretty hard for us. I usually ask my mom about dad but not any more cause if I bring the matter up she gets angry, depressed and sad so I quit.
Due to the rich economic society I grew up in I have been builled severally and that because of my color and poor status,but I later found out that being silent all the time is not the best thing,I had to stand up for myself and also be independent at a young age of 16.
I can be a bit annoying and troublesome at times but I am a very loving and interesting person to be with,I can also be a bit of pysco
sometimes but I have promised not be one
Oh yeah this is my first day at Empire High, The biggest and largest high school in the states it is the best and most equipped school which is filled with student of noble birth, rich status,popular social media network rate,well known young celebrities and the lowest is a student from an average family with average wealth.
I luckily manage to win a scholarship and here I am late on my first day,Are my under a curse or something.
........
"Miss we are here"the driver announced
"Oh.."Sylvia was bit surprised,she got down from the cab and paid the man.
About to thank him he zoomed off leaving a now speechless sylvia
"WoW manners man a frown settled on her face she turned and what she saw made her jaw dropped "WoW ,so this is the school I got a scholarship into"she said still in awe.she haven't seen the school but have heard things about it and what she imagined is it even close to what she was seeing now,this was beyond her expectations.
She was still prasing the luxurious school forgetting the there was something she had hurried for.
"fuck what is wrong with me"she ran inside and what she saw was like paradise or far beyond,the locker way was empty but that only made the place more attractive.She didn't have enough time to admire the environment and needed to head to class seems like lectures has begun.
The school have showed and given her everything she needed to know and own. She remembered that her class was Grade 11Art and after passing through many classrooms she finally arrived at the Grade 11Art finally.
She sighed audibly before twisting the door knob open
All eyes fell on the brown girl and for the first time since Grade 5 she felt intimidated
"Is it because of there sharp and direct gaze or is it me felling intimidated?"she asked herself
"You must be tho New student, We have been waiting for you." she said with a bright smile that looked familiar she gestured her to come to the front and give an introduction about herself.
"My name is Sylvia lurana I am...." she was interrupted
"that name doesn't ring a bell" a red haired girl said
"Wait, wait aren't you that girl that works in that awful restaurant CHUKY CRIPS?" A girl in a Blonde hair asked
"well yeah..."she was interrupted again
"Yeah I remember you, you are the girl that got stuck in a trash can"she said and the whole class erupted with laughter
"But oh my God how did a poor person like you get in here or did you mistake here for that shabby school down the streets"A boy said and everyone bursted into another round of laughter.
Sylvia blood was boiling already she was mad that she could explode
"SHUT UP "Sylvia thundered and everyone immediately stopped laughing.
"yes I do work at that resturant,yes I got stuck in a trash can but that was an accident and so what at least I did deny it in fact am proud of it and that's my business not yours so get that"Everyone was dumbstuck,did this girl actually shut them up this is suppose to be written in the history of Empire High.
Sylvia walked over to boy who said those last words,she grabbed his neck tie and dragged him to face her in the eye,Everyone was so shocked to the core that some even covered their mouth with their hands,some lost their tongue.
"For your fucking information I didn't make a mistake coming here okay"she said as she pushed the boy and he fell on his sit.
Pissed syliva walked over to an empty sit and sat down it took a while before everyone could revive from what just happened even the teacher who for some reason expected this.
BELL RINGS
Finally the bell was ring and the teacher stopped whatever she was doing
"I guess we will be stopping here for today,please make sure to do more research on this topic. I shall take my leave"she said and carried her bag hastenly like some embarrassment is about to befall her and it did.
"Do you intend to die here like a moron." a voice said and the class laughed except sylvia and the teacher who hurried out of the class
Sylvia discovered that it was the same Blondie she sassed up earlier
"I don't see what so funny about what that bitch said"Sylvia said trying to start a conversation with the boy next to her.Ale st she could fr associate right.
But to her surprise he didn't answer but sylvia really mind she just watch the dude pack his books into his unzipped bag, zipped the bag then turned to her and said.
"that is Harper,Harper Cross and she is not a bitch"
"Hmm really tell me more about this Harper Cross?" she asked drammatically, he looked at his wrist watch then heavier a sigh
"You only have three minutes out of my precious time,So listen cause I ain't gonna repeat my self" he warned and Sylvia rolled her eyes
"What ever just go on"
"WoW" the guy was amused at her sassy behavior.
"Harper and Harry Cross are the two most respected people in the school, the are the minsters children,The minster owns 65% contribution of the school and...
" So who does the other 45% go" she interrupted. The boy signed
" The president son he is also a student here but he is out of the states"
"hmph go on".
"The.minster as you is a well respected and disciplined man, He is strict and handles most of the affairs of the school but not in a stable way.
In this school there are top notch student's you must respect. there are named the "CROSS" and yes it is named by Harry cross, this group consist of five popular known students,
Number one is 'LIAM' the son of the second wealthiest business tycoon in the country, I wanna believe you have heard of the willfred family,if you haven't thats your business and he is Harry's cousin not to talk of best buddy.
"okay this guy better watch his tongue when talking with me "sylvia said inwardly.
Number two is Dylan the son of the Governor the Dylan family actually owns the largest Internet shares company in the states.
Number three is Abel the son of the richest Mafia boss in the underworld but I know you won't know him.
Number four is LOGAN HILLS the president son and heir to their family buisnes
Number five is their leader HARRY CROSS .
The Cross family owns the biggest largest and number one paying company in term of imporr and export exchanges, the largest Entertainment industry and many other.
These people are no people to mess with, they hate things like being secretly photographed,stalked at, Gossiping about them and many other which I don't have time to tell you. But if they catch you doing any of those things you are dead."
"HAHAHAHAHAHA" Sylvia laughed "Are you afraid of them?" she asked
seems like you still don't have a clear view of who this people are. And better go apologize to Harper before you get expelled" he said with all seriousness.
BEEP!,BEEP!!,BEEP!!!.
Good your time is up, I have more important things to do than sit here talking to you all day, I am on a diet you know..." the guy said hanging his bag on his right shoulder. he had a smirk which made Sylvia smile and said
"But I never asked you that nor do I care if you are in a diet or not" the guy smirk faded he intended to sas this girl but ended up being sassed up he bowed his head embarrassed and hurried that someone might have heard that.
Sylvia smiled whole heartedly
(Gosh this girl knows how to give a person their size)
"But will I be able to keep it cool, not cause troubleand try not to be that psycho that I promised not to be..."
"well I can if this so called Cross don't enter my territory any one that does will receive hard punches from me" she tried cracked her knuckles but couldn't
"Okay enough I have a locker to find"she packed her books into her bag and zipped it then headed out
HALL WAY
"OH MY GOD THE CROSS ARE HERE" A girl shouted. Before a second could pass by all the student dashed to one direction
"HARRY'I am madly in love with you" A girl in a

This guys where driving the entire Empire High crazy. the Hallway was getting crowded each second. The girls were screaming each loud like fire works, some where complimenting them,Taking pictures, some of the boys had envious looks, some boys had that 'I wish I was them'.
Every step this boys took the mob will split in two making way for them to pass.
MEANWHILE
Sylvia decide to have a quick meal before heading to the locker way, she began thinking about her locker number while eating.
she unzipped her bag and searched for her phone but found nothing but her books
"what the fuck, omg this can't be happening
I must have left it under my locker desk" without thinking twice she ran out of the cafeteria.
"l hope my phone isn't missing, I hope my phone isn't missing,i hope my phone isn't missing." she recited running to the class
HALLWAY
The cross were still making the hallway go crazy, the photo shoot still went on, Dylan and Abel were the ones enjoying it but Harry and liam kept a straight face
"Gosh I got a pic of Dylan and Abel smirking
Ahahahahahahahaha" a girl and her friends jumped happily.
Everyone who saw this stars made way but out of the blue came a brown girl with blue eyes.
The cross was surprised but the person who was beyond surprise was harry.
he didnt know why but found this brown girl with blue eyes familiar.
Harry was brought back to reality when he heard gasps.
"Sorry" sylvia apologized after hitting Harry's shoulder,some thing no one ever dares.
Immediately he dragged Sylvia to his front and a frown settled on her face as they both stared at each other.
"Hey rude what's your problem man? why did grab me like that?" she asked withdrawing her hurt wrist from Harry's grip. But harry remained in unfazed
" Are you blind,didn't you see us me here" harry said but sylvie eye rolled and hissed making every one dumb stuck.
" look, if it's that I remember vividly that I apologized for hitting g you and if that's not enough to your satisfaction that's your problem" she said and was about to walked pass them but Dylan blocked her way.
" I guess you are that new transfer student the sassy brown girl with blue eyes" he said sacarstically
"Is Mr greg blind to allow a commons into the school" Abel said
"I wonder how her house will look like I.mean look at her cloths all faded" Dylan spotted out
"she is as useless as she is poor" harry said.
And the whole place was filled with laughter
Liam who was watch the girl the whole time smiled, he already knew the confidence the girl has to face people like them since when she talked back at harry no one has ever done that.
Pissed sylvia was damn tired of this so called Cross they turned her into a laughing stock, she was damn tried of their attitude,she may be poor but that doesn't give any one no matter their status step on her or treat her like shit.
But what she did made everyone go blank including Liam.
