The Badass Bitch

I stand my ground, ready for battle. "We just want you, Alíce." He says, moving closer. I throw a knife at his knee, causing him to fall to his knees. "No. I am not yours." I growl, yanking my knife out of his knee. He groans painfully, swearing wildly "Shoot him." he instructs painfully, pointing at James. I run to him, pushing him out of the way. I stop the bullet, it helplessly falling to the ground. More bullets followed, making me lose count. I sigh and stand in front of my group, putting my hands up. I make a black force field, saving them from the bullets. I am starting to lose strength. I groan wearily, pushing more force. "Alice! Stop it, your hurting yourself." James cried. I am almost out of power. I drop my hands, falling to the ground. You are probably confused, as though I just passed out. This is our story.

I woke up with a start. I sigh and sit up, throwing the covers off. I had to go to that industry that they call 'school'. It has been centuries since I have been to school. I am most educated, though. I stand up, walk to the bathroom, and take a quick shower. I come out with a towel around my body and a towel in my hand, drying my hair. I quickly dry off and walk to my closet, opening it. My closet is a walk-in closet. It has many accessories such as; two- pieces, leather pants, black jeans, and sweaters. I do not wear dresses. Only if I have to, and that is rare. I put on black jeans and a black sweater that says 'VICIOUS' in gold. I put my black boots with heels on, making my favorite clacking noise. I brush my hair-which is to the middle of my neck.- and place a black rose on the side and grab my phone and keys, applying lip gloss to my lips. As I walk out, I swiftly grab my leather jacket off of my office chair. I rub down the stairs, slipping my jacket on. I grab my coffee cup from the kitchen table. I walk quickly to the couch, snatching my bookbag off of it. I walk outside , hit with the smell of strawberries. I smile slightly, jumping in my Volvo. It is a black color, my favorite. I drive off, ready for everything.

I arrive at the school, parking my car next to a red Volvo, Yasmin's. Yasmin has been my best friend for centuries. We both turned at midnight, the time of the wolves. Which makes me a hybrid. I slowly get out of my car, checking my surroundings. "Alíce! Over here." I heard yasmin say, quietly. I turn my head to her car, which she is in with Peta. Peta was her lover when she was human. Apparently, when she died and became a vampire, he wanted to be with her. I smile and walk over to her, hugging her. "Hey, for eternity?" I say. "In maturity." she replies. "We are family in life and death." we finished in usion. It was a phrase we made up when we were little. It meant that "No matter what I will always be by your side." I have missed her, terribly. "What is this industry?" I ask as we walk in the 'double doors', as they call them. She laughed and showed me where the office was. "Dinner on me?" I invited.

"Yes,please" we laughed, hugging each other. I quietly opened the office door, unsure what to do. "Come in." she assured as she ruffled her papers. I came in and sat in the nearest chair to the door. "Wait one minute" she said, looking at papers. I took a book out of my bookbag, reading quietly. My book was a supernatural one. It was about vampires.A boy walked in, sitting next to me. I read on to a description about a man named James Stark, who wore bright clothes. I read more and then looked at the boy. "Dear god.." I mumbled, surprised. This boy was the man in the description! "Hey, I'm James Stark." he greeted, smiling brightly at me. I nodded and played with my hair. My rose fell and he caught it, holding it out while looking intensely at me. I gently took it, our hands brushing. I glance at him, catching him glance at me. He looked away, blushing. I laughed, leaning closer to him. "First, you become my friend." I teased.
