1 New beginnings

Zari sat patiently, waiting for her ride, fully aware of the four bodyguards standing around her. She had no idea why it was that important. It's not like anyone wanted to hurt her; I mean, she was only 15.  She cracked her neck, unwrapped a piece of gum, and placed it in her mouth, getting a dirty look from one of the bodyguards.  Zari hated her family; they were all rich, stuck-up narcissists who only cared about themselves and their kin.  Because of her family, she could never go out in public or sleepover at her friend's house without something happening. In fact, she was surprised cameras had not shown up here yet.  Zari was surrounded by bags full of what she will need at boarding school,  clothes, books, toiletries, and other essentials. Her dad had arranged for her to have a separate building all to herself with "Pristine" security even though she really wanted to be on dorm with all the other girls, be normal for once.  She had been going to the school just down the street all her life, it was only for upper-class kids, and they never talked to her, always called her names, and ignored her.  She was excited for a new start; maybe she could actually make some friends. Ever since Zari was little, she was taught never to help others unless it benefited her, but she didn't believe that. She hated that she had all the money she could ever need when so many people were starving.  She had finally convinced her parents to let her apply to Springfield Mountain Academy, a small boarding school in the Rocky Mountains of  Colorado.  She heard the limo roll up, and she hopped up, grabbing her backpack and a suitcase from next to her. Her dad wanted her to bring more, but she wanted to make things simple. She never was a girl to show off or dress up, most people would say she was a tomboy always wanting to be outside and running around. Her family disapproved of her playfulness and wanted her to become a businesswoman to take over the DUPONT family business.  Zari slid into her seat watching the driver pack her bags into the back, the car was filled with snacks and drinks, anything she wanted they knew all her favorite things.  She glanced out the window taking in a deep breath ready to begin her journey.
