《New World》Chapter 01- The Beginning
Advertisement
The school bell rang for the second time indicating the start of the second period. A single lone boy with bleached hair walked in through the school gates and enteted the school building at a leisurely pace. He ascended the staircase and went towards his classroom. Class had already started. He could hear his homeroom teacher talking about the basics of C++ programming.
'Another day to endure .' He sighed dejectedly as he pushed open the door and entered the classroom.
The whole classroom went silent upon his entry. The clamor of the first period died down as all eyes were focused on him.
"Uwaah.. he really came to class."
"And here, I was finally expecting a peaceful day in class. Damn."
"David really should take a hike and go die in a ditch somewhere"
The boy in question, David , merely sighed and looked at his homeroom teacher Miss Webb. The young teacher only sighed and signalled for the class to quieten down and told him to take his seat. David sighed and walked towards the corner of the class to occupy his seat. He didn't escape the piercing glares his classmates sent towards him.
'Why do I have to tolerate this shit. Stupid faggots.' He thought to himself.
David didn't have a single friend in his class. He would be an example of a person who woild fit the description of a social outcast and a loner. The problem had all started after a certain issue made him bleach his hair voluntarily. At first his classmates merely stared at him and didn't pay him much attention but a few days later, he got himself falsely recognized as a delinquent when he punched the living daylights out of a classmate who was trying to hit on his little sister who was just 2 years below him. Naturally David got angry. Infact, Anybody would get angry. The faculty did not want any explanations and did not ask for any either. They simply gave him a 2 week suspension from school while the other party had it off easy as he was the grandson of the school director.
'This sucks. Everything here is so boring. Isnt there a better place we could be?' This was the only thought circulating in his mind during the enire class.
He was now a 3rd year about to graduate and still nothing had changed. His sister had ended up joining his same school ignoring all his protests.
His sister Alice however was in a different league from him. Always surrounded by her friends and was the very symbol of a rose colored high school life. When in comparison, he stood out like a pebble in the sand. His sister had beautifully lustrous blonde hair and electric blue eyes and was an idol in their school.

David had his fair share of good looks and used to have lustrous black hair which he had now bleached over with a dull yellow shade. His electric blue eyes was the omly thing that he shared with his sister.
The school bell rang thrice snapping him back to reality. 3 periods had gone by and he had not even known. Nobody even bothered waking him up when periods ended.
'Serously?' He thought. He thought of protesting but soon gave ip the thought.
"Hey you! David!" The math teacher Satoru called out with a disgusted look on his face. David had been making his way towards the cafeteria when he had been called out.
David responded with a blank expression.
He had been summoned by Miss Webb for some counselling or so smirked the fat math teacher.
He lethargically made his way towards the counselling room. In fact one could even say that he was looking forward to it. Miss Webb was one of the few people who knew his true personality and had often expressed her worry on how he was being treated by others and tried to intervene on many occasions but he simply dismissed the thought. He opened the office door and was greeted by the worried face of his homeroom teacher.
"David, please. I cant stand by much longer on seeing you being treated like this. I will explain it to th—"she started but David cut her off saying " Do you really think it would bring about a change in their attitudes?". Dissapointment and frustration showed in his eyes and the young homeroom teacher immediately knew that she had taken the wrong approach on the matter.
Dabid sighed in exasperation while making his way towards the cafeteria.
'Well. That sucked. Majorly.' He thought, cursing himself for storming out of the room.
He bought a drink carton and stood by the vending machine slowly sipping his drink. A group of students were approaching in his directoon. He looked closely and realized it was Alice and her friends. A warm feeling filled his heart as she and her group neared him. Their eyes met but she dismissed him with a shake of her head. David's heart sank but he did not show it. The girls took their drinks and left throwing disgusted looks at him except for Alice who didnt show him any response. He sighed dejectedly and walked towards the classroom.
Halfway through the class he got bored of his classmates' dirty looks and ditched for the rest of the day.
He enthusiastically made his way home. His Heaven. His only utopia in his stupid world.
He set his bag down in the living room and ficked through the channels. His family was a poor one since his mother had passed away after giving birth to Alice. His father was a drunk and wasted his life away after his mother's death. The daily food could be bought as a result of pawning off his mom's gold.

Alice always recieved the short end of the straw as she had been the object of his Dad's wrath ever since his Mom passed away. The house was dirty but it held a lot of memories for the siblings as it reminded them of the times David had raised Alice on his own whis fending off his Dad's drunken fits aimed at her.
He heard the doors open and saw Alice come in. On seeing him, Alice flew towards him with tears in her eyes and suddenly tackled him to the floor asking him the same question throughout.
"Why do you want me to ignore you at school??!"
It was the same every single day after school after she had enrolled. David stood up and pacified her. Alice in reality was as close to David as they could get. He could tell that it broke her heart to have her ignore him and diss him off when at school. David simply sighed and asked with a smile
"What do you want for dinner?"
Soon Alice got herself freshened up and helped lay out the table and started eating with David while biting into his food with a cute smile. It was a common practise in their family. The food would be laid out for three, but they would never eat together with their Dad. He would often come home late after drinking. It had been 13 years since his mother had passed away and their Dad still hadn't gotten over his loss.
After a while , they had seated themselves at the couch to watch some movies. Alice as usual was sitting on his lap which she claimed as her 'special seat' . David found it strange that she would say the same thing everytime but David as usual paid no mind and found himself playing with her hair allowing a slight smile to touch his lips. Suddenly their leisure time was interuppted by a violent knock on their front door. He told Alice to stay put and went to get the door.
There were 3 people standing outside the door. It was raining cats and dogs outside. The 2 people standing on either side of the small pudgy man seemed like bodyguards.
" Is Mr. Walker in?" The pudgy man asked in a suspicious tone.
"No. He isnt" came the immediate reply.
"I see. So is this his house? Are you David Walker?"
"Yes . Im David can I help you?"
"Good. Good. We're taking the house. You see, your father borrowed a teensy amount of money from us and has been on the run and we want it back. Get to work boys!" said the small man snapping his fingers.
David's heart sank in despair as he watched tge two brutes enter the house. A scream pierced the air as his little sister came running towards him frightened.
"Oho! This one seems good." The pudgy man exclaimed on seeing her. The two brutes were demolishing his house and he could do nothing but watch in despair as it all happened.
But the next words the midget said, jarred him back to his senses.
" This one looks like it could earn a little in a brothel" the loan shark said looking at Alice. Alice shuddered and clung to her brother when she felt his vile gaze on her body.
" That was the last fucking straw" shouted David and in front of the two brutes punched their employer in the jaw with such force that caused his eyeballs to roll around in their sockets. The pudgy midget could only look at him dumbfounded while the brat who was standing in front of jim spat curses on his face and started off running with his sister.
"AFTER THEMM!!!" the pig screamed.
David and alice had no difficulty evading their pursuers as they ducked between buildings and thickets. When they were sure that they had lost the duo chasing them, David sighed and walked to the nearby park hand in hand with a weeping Alice. He silently cursed his stupid father who was the cause of all this mess. He quietly hugged his sister who could do nothing more that cry into her brother's arms
Suddenly a voice interuppted them.
"Having some trouble sweet children? "
A mysterious man clothed in a pinstriped tuxedo showed himself in front of them.
David was immediately on his guard and pushed Alice behind him. The frightened expression on their faces might have explained a lot about their current situation. The man noticed their fear and hate for the world and smiling widely, he said,
" Allow me ro grant your wish little children".
He held out his hand. Shadows merged to form the shape of a katana.
David just looked at him dumbfounded as he was pierced in the heart. He dropped limply and could hear Alice screaming and that too was silenced with the sound of a body dropping to the ground.
"Well try your best, sweet children." murmured the man as he melted into the shadows.
David woke up to the sound of his sister shaking him awake. He opened his eyes to see an unfamiliar scenery .
He nearly pissed his pants when a screaming winged beast flew overhead.
He looked at his crying sister and then at the vast plains and shouted
"WHERE THE FUCKING HELL ARE WE?????!!!"
