Chapter One
Inari, Zefaria, Iona and Kirra were walking into school chatting away,
“Hey Zeffy cute outfit where did you get it?” Asked Kirra,
“This I customized the top I bought with Inari.”
“Hey Iona did we have any homework for today I can’t remember and I left my HW diary in science.” Kirra asked desperately
“Don’t worry we don’t at least not that I know of anyway.” Replied Iona calmly.
The girls came to the front of there school
“See you two later!” Called Inari and Zefaria
“See you,” Iona and Kirra called back the two sets of girls went their different directions still chatting while they walked. Everything was going well for the four girls but for another girl life was not going the way she wanted.
Three blocks away a girl by the name of Tempesina was running around her house looking for her stuff “MUM where are my shoes!” Tempesina called,
“How am I supposed to know didn’t you have a bath last night just after we got here?” Tempesina thought back to the night before the night she had moved here to this bring city the place she knew nothing about or anyone in it. The night before Sina (her nickname) and her mother had moved to a new town they had left all there friends and family and of course the main reason their memories. Sina ran up the stairs to the bathroom sure enough there were her shoes she quickly slipped them on, “Bye mum see you at twenty past three.” Sina ran out the door forgetting her bag then she got into the elevator and remembered her bag she ran though the door before it shut and there by the door was her mother holding her bag, “Forgetting something dear?”
“Oops,” Sina grabbed her bag and ran for the elevator waving to her mum then she fell over into the elevator the doors shut and she pressed the button for the ground floor. Sina checked her watch it was ten to nine “It would have been faster and easier to jump. Sina sighed as it reached the ground floor she quickly pulled out a pair of roller blades and skated off to school.
Sina could see her new school, “Only two minutes left I’m not going to make it I need to go faster.” Sina skated as fast as she could she just heard the bell as she entered the gates the place was empty she began wondering if this was really the school she was meant to be in.
As Sina got indoors she looked around “I’m sure I can find my class,” Sina looked around again, “or maybe not.” Just then the principal came down the stairs, “May I help you Miss…?”
“I’m Tempesina Gretana, I just moved here and I seem to be a little lost.”
“Come with me Miss Gretana you should be in class room thirty six your class is 5S.” The principal said as she lead Sina up the stairs and down the corridor She knocked on the door and the Teacher inside opened the door, “Yes what can I do for you Miss Stevenson?”
“ This is Miss Tempesina Gretana she is new and has been put into this class Mr. Smith.”
“Ok I’ll get her acquainted with her new class mates and test her on how much she knows,”
“Also she will need someone to show her the ropes and help her along I’m sure you can find someone.”
“Certainly.” Mr. Smith took Sina into his class “Alright class this is Tempesina she just moved in here and I need someone to help her along show her where to go an the like so is anyone going to volunteer or do I have to volunteer someone myself?” He said slyly. At first no one raised his or her hands and Tempesina looked slightly scared ‘Great no one even wants to show me around why did we have to move here?’ she thought to herself Just then Iona raised her hand “What do you think your doing Iona?” Kirra whispered at Iona putting up her hand, “We can’t just let her fall into the hands of someone to either bully her or make a bully out of her remember Sam? Besides it might be fun,” She whispered back smiling sweetly at Sina, “I’ll do it Sir,”
“Good then it’s settled you shall look after Sina until she knows her way round. Tempesina go take a seat behind Iona please.” Sina sighed with relief ‘I’m not hated good.’ Sina took the seat behind Iona and Kirra “I swear your kind heart is going to get us in trouble one of these days,”
“What I’m getting a good vibe from her you know that must mean something.”
“I guess.” Kirra sighed looking back at Sina, ‘I just hope your right.’
At lunch Sina had been taking a good note in her head were everything was.
“Hey Iona, Hey Terra,” Sina saw two girls one with middle length brown hair the other had long red hair,
“Hey Inari, Hey Zefaria,” Kirra and Iona called back, “Iona who’s that behind you?”
“Her,” Kirra answered pointing to Sina, “That’s Iona’s new friend Tempesina,”
“Hey don’t be like that Kirra Guys this is Sina she just moved here and I volunteered to look after her so Sina tell us about yourself.” Iona said,
“Ok as you know I’m Tempesina also known as Sina by my old friends I just moved here last night leaving all my old friends and family behind me and my mum live in an apartment three blocks away I love to roller blade and that’s about it,” While Sina spoke she took a box out of her bag “Cookies anyone?”
“Sure, By the way I’m Zefaria but my friends call me Zeffy.” Zefaria smiled as she took a cookie from the box, “This is Inari but we call her Inari and I’m guessing you already know Kirra and Iona,” Sina nodded and smiled ‘I have friends,’ she turned to look at Kirra and Iona fighting, ‘At least I hope I do.’
“Iona what do we have after lunch?”
“We have history with Mr. O’Connor.” Iona answered, ‘Just great I hate history.’ Sina thought.
“Which is where?”
“Don’t worry you’ll know your way around in no time.”
The bell rang for class and the four friends including Sina waved goodbye, “Inari what do you think of Sina I like her she seems really nice I just feel sorry for that she’s in the same class as Terra,” Inari giggled in agreement.
Sina followed Iona to their history class Kirra never turned round once but Iona on the other hand made sure that Sina didn’t get lost Sina felt a sense of understanding and kindness from Iona but from Kirra she felt nothing. When the girls reached their class the entered the room and Iona went up with Sina to get her a chair, “Excuse me Mr. O’Connor this is Tempesina Gretana she just moved here she needs a seat.”
“Ok she can sit umm there,” He pointed to a seat near a boy with messy red hair, “Miss Gretana please take your seat and we’ll begin,” Sina took her seat near the boy he barley looked up she looked over at Iona who was talking to Terra, Iona looked worried. ‘What’s so bad about this boy that is making Iona nervous?’ Sina thought. In front of the boy and Sina were two other boys who kept turning around and whispering to each other and every now and then they looked at her, Iona looked around at her every now and then still looking worried. When the bell rang Iona went strait over to Sina just as the two boys in front of her were about to speak with her, “Come on Sina lets go we have maths next and our teacher isn’t happy if we’re late so come quickly lets go,” Sina turned to look at the boy she had been sitting beside and then looked back at Iona and nodded the three girls went to their next class, “Umm Sina did by any chance those three boys speak to you?” Iona asked Sina just shook her head, “Good those three are Kurt he has black hair he was sitting in front of you the one next to him with blonde hair is their leader Timothy and the one you sit beside is called Sam he came last week and when our teacher asked who wants to show him around like he did for you I tried to put my hand up but thanks to Kirra there I didn’t Mr. Smith set him with Timothy and now he’s a bully so stay away from him when you can and whatever you do don’t speak to them. Ah here we are room three math,” The girls entered the classroom and again Iona went up with Sina to get her seat. “ Excuse me Mrs. Steen, this is Tempesina Gretana she just moved here and she…”
“I know I know she needs a seat she can sit next to the other new kid.” Iona groaned to her self then whispered to Sina, “Remember don’t speak to him.” Sina nodded and took her seat Timothy whispered to Kurt and Sam before she took her seat, “That Iona probably warned her about us so Sam you have to be nice and well you know what to do” Sam nodded, Timothy and Kurt turned around ‘Ever since I moved here these guys have been really nice but I somehow don’t think this is a good idea I mean I know what it’s like to be new its hard enough as it is without being bullied’ Sam thought to himself as Sina took her seat. Sina stared at the board ‘I don’t understand a thing going on on that board.’ Then Sam saw her distressed face and thought this is a perfect opportunity to try. “Do you need any help?” Sam asked politely Sina turned around ‘I know I shouldn’t but he seems so nice’ “Yeah I can’t make heads or tails of this work.”
“I’ll help you see you do…” Sam began explaining how to do the maths problems. Iona looked round at Sina, “Kirra this is not good.” Iona whispered,
“What’s not good?” Kirra replied,
“That,” Iona pointed over to Sina and Sam,
“So who really cares what happens you were getting rid of her as soon as she learned her way around anyway weren’t you?”
“I don’t know I kind of like having her around and I think Inari and Zeffy do to.”
“Any way what are we going to do we can’t stop him from going near her she sits next to him in four classes already besides he’s only helping her do maths what is that going to lead to?”
“I guess you’re right at least I hope you are.”
When the end bell rang Sina packed up her stuff and on her way over to Iona Sam gave her a smile ‘I really can’t see how a guy like him ended up with friends like them’ Sina walked over to Iona who looked slightly mad, “Your mad aren’t you?”
“No I’m not mad I’m just worried please for your own good don’t hang out with him please.” Iona looked honestly worried Kirra on the other hand looked like she couldn’t care. The three girls met up with Zefaria and Inari at the main entrance when they got to the bottom step Sina sat down, “What ya doing Sina?” Zefaria asked, Sina pulled out her roller blades “Putting on my roller blades I’ll see you guys tomorrow” She said as she got up and skated out the school gates Kirra saw Sam meet Sina at the gates on his bike and by the look on Iona’s face she had seen it to, “I tried to warn her really I did.” Iona said quietly “You tried to warn who from what?” Inari asked Kirra spoke for Iona who was kind of down in the dumps from what had just happened, “In four classes Sam sits next to Sina and Sina was having a slight problem in maths and Sam helped her with it, this is after Iona warned her not to talk to the three of them.”
“Well for all we know Sina may just turn Sam around.” Zefaria said,
“ Maybe,”
Sina was at the gate when she saw Sam he asked her to wait so she did “What do you want I already said thanks my friends told me I shouldn’t speak to you so can you leave me alone please?” Sina tried to get away but Sam grabbed her hand “I want to speak with you.”
“Well I don’t want to speak to you she said pulling her arm free and pulling Sam off his bike “Now leave me alone.” Sina skated as fast as she could before he got his bearings back.
Back at the top off the stairs Iona saw Sam grab Sina’s hand “Guys look at this quick.” The rest of the gang turned to look at Sina and Sam just in time to see Sina pull sam of his bike, “Did you see that?” Iona said shocked as she began running down the stairs, the gang grabbed their bikes from the bike shed and took off towards Sina “Wait Sina hold up,” Yelled Inari Sina stopped and turned on her heels to face the four girls “What do you want?” Sina asked,
“We just saw what Sam did we were wondering if you were hurt?”
“I’m fine I was only following someone’s advice anyway I need to get home if it’s ok with the four of you.”
“Oops sorry can we join you?” Inari asked Kirra smiled “Only if you can catch me.” With that Sina Skated away then turned around “Hurry up if your coming.” Then Sina bumped into someone “Oops sorry there,” Then she saw that it was Sam, “Oh its you on second thoughts I take that sorry back.”
“Sina wait a minute I just want to …” Sam stopped he saw that there was no point continuing so he moved out of her way and she skated on with her friends close behind her Zefaria stopped, “Guys I’ll catch up with you in a minute.” Zefaria turned to Sam, “So what do you want?”
“Huh me?” Sam asked surprised
“Yes you, you said you want to tell Sina something but I’m sure you’ve seen she won’t listen but I’ll give her a message.” Sam nodded and told Zefaria what to tell Sina and he left ‘I hope I’ve done the right thing.’ He thought as he got back on his bike. Zefaria got on her bike and rode to catch up to the rest of the gang who were waiting for her outside Sina’s flat.
