Chapter One: School for Sunshine

Kat wakes up from her sleeping bag and yawns. Home, sweet home, she thought.

.

She sits up and looks at her surroundings. There was a small crate to her left that served as her bed side table. It was crowded with small trinkets, a frame with a photo of her parents and magazines. On her other side there was three crates that held her school books and food. Beside that was a large bag for laundry. Small space, but this tent was home, sweet home to her.

She grabs her school outfit and shoves it on quickly. She grabs a wash cloth and a bar of soap and rushes to a small stream by her tent and washes up. She looks at her watch and see that she' s going to be late as usual. Shit, she thought, late again.

She grabs her book bag and hops into her shoes as she runs for her first day of her junior year.

AT MERRIDAI HIGH SCHOOL…..

"Oh Mitsuo!"

Mitsuo Kiro-Aizawa turns his head and looks at the group of girls surrounding him. He sighs. Damn girls, he thought.

A young blonde walks up to him and pulls a gift from behind her back. She starts to shake.

"U-um here Mitsuo," she said. She hands him the gift. She looks at him hopefully. "I got this for you."

Mitsuo looks at the gift. Might as well take it, but this girl might stalk him too, just like the last time. He shudders at the thought of the last girl who stalked him. She stood outside his house every night and watched him from the tree he had outside his window.

It was bad enough there was a fan club about him.

He takes the gift from the girl and puts on his best smile. "Thank you….um,"

"Mamimi," the blonde girl says.

"Mamimi," he finishes. He shakes the gift as if he wonders what it is, but already knows what it is: chocolate and a love letter. It's always the same. He opens it and acts surprised. "Chocolate and….what is this?" he picks up the letter.

Mamimi and her girls stood in anticipation, waiting for him to open the letter. Suddenly the bells rings and they all slouch in disappointment.

"Oh, I guess I'll have to read this later," Mitsuo says. the girls all turn with hungry looks in their eyes as they go to sit in their seats. Mituso closes his eyes and sighs with relief. Free at last, well for now, he thought.

A red headed girl runs into the room. Her hair was a skew and her clothes were raggedy and was torn at the collar. Ah, he thought, a new girl. Hott too.

"Ah! This must be Ms. Shiraishi," said the instructor Mr. Taki. He was an old, bald man who had a thing for teenage girls. Maybe that's why he is a high school teacher, Mitsuo thought.

The girl bowed her head and looked at her class. "Hello, my name is Katsura Shiraishi." She smiled a bright smile that made her face even more beautiful than before.

Mr. Taki was just as sunk in as the rest of the boys, but he got out of the trance fast. "Yes!" he coughed. "Your seat will be..." he pointed to the seat next to Mitsuo. "There."

Kat walked over to her seat and sat down. She didn't see them, but Mitsuo's fan club was looking at her with killer jealously in their eyes. Mitsuo laughed at them and went back to staring at her. Gorgeous, he thought, nice rack too. He laughed to himself. This is going to be fun.

Mr, Taki went on with his lecture about the school's new rules and how its right to follow the rules. Kat tried to listen but she kept drifting asleep. She gave up of listening and put her book up on her desk to look like she was reading it and fell asleep. She dreamt of her parents and the crash and her bloody revenge as she stood on a hill with fire in her eyes…..

"Hey, Katsura," a deep voice said to her, waking her from her dream. She looked up and saw an handsome face of the boy sitting next to her in class. She must of slept through class. She looked at the boy. His hair is like raven feathers she thought, but she suddenly realized she was staring and quickly sat up in her seat.

"Yes," she said to him.

He smiled at her. "It's…time for lunch." he reached out for her hand when suddenly a shadow past over them. They looked up and there was a boy there. He's HUGE, Kat thought.Mitsuo grinned with maliciousness. "Hmm, Toriyama. What do you want?"

The boy called Toriyama grabbed the front of Mitsuo's shirt and lifted him off his feet. "Back off you perv," he said. " I know what your up to."

Mitsuo laughed. "Oh? An what exactly am I up to?"

"You are trying to seduce Ms. Shiraishi."

"How can you tell? I mean you sit all the way in the back of the class…"

"Excuse me," Kat said.

The two boys stopped arguing and turned to look at her. "Yes," they said to her in unison.

"Um, can I go to the bathroom now?" she asked.

Both boys blushed profusely and let her walk past them. Boys, she thought, this is going to be fun. She laughed to herself as she walked down the hallway.

"This is all your fault Toriyama," Mitsuo whispered angrily.

"Shouldn't have been trying to mess with her," Toriyama whispered back.

Mitsuo shoved Toriyama. "What are you? A virgin protector now?"

"No," Toriyama. "She is different this time. I must protect her." he turned fromMitsuo and walked away."Even from you Mitsuo."he whispered.

Mitsuo smirked. I'll get her, he thought, I will take her from him. My little trophy. Toriyama won't know what's coming to him until it is too late.
