Footprints

Strange things usually happen uncommonly. Once can be a fling, the second a coincidence, the third...not so much. But for all of it to happen to a group of kids? That is very suspicious indeed. (I am an amateur writer and English is my second language. So, I am very sorry if you encounter any errors in my novel...Happy reading)

Chapter 6

The sky was dark, with clouds hiding the sun and sounds coming out of the sky.

Buildings made of bricks and stone surround a beautiful church that was made in the 15th century. There was a tower on each side and a rusty bell on the top of the church between the towers.There were trees surrounding the area. There were guards patrolling the place, with guns on their hands or waist.

The gates were opened and vehicles starts coming in. It was a good thing that the school was huge, preferably the park, for every student has their own car. Black limousines were the norm for every person in the school. Teenagers starts coming out of their cars, already in their uniforms.

There were two identical old alfa romeo spider cars - one red while the other is silver - that came in. Two teenagers came out of the car at the same time. The girl is wearing a black skirt that was about 3 inches before reaching her knees, a white long sleeve with a black jacket outlined in red and black loafer with white socks. While the boy is wearing a black blazer outlined in red with white long sleeve shirt underneath, black trousers, Oxford shoes and a red neck tie. He was wearing a black stud earring on his left ear, complimenting his eyes.

They walked to a group of teenagers, who are in a way, the only odd ones in the school. They were contrary to what everyone usually wears, which resulted getting them in a lot of detentions, which in the end didn't continue as it was useless to punish students who you can't reprimand or expell.

"Finally...." A guy with a built bigger than the other guys in the group heavily said with a sigh in the end. "....the devil's spawns have come." He was wearing the same uniform as the guys, but his shirt wasn't tucked in and his tie was loose.

"You're late." Prima shortly says. She was wearing a round red glasses. And her hair was tied in a ponytail.

"Got to pay someone a visit." Taylor shrugs.

"It would be great if you'd visit a *someone* for me too." Prima says while smiling with her eyes twinkling.

Everyone looks at Prima.

"What?" asks Prima.

"You're different." Mike reveals, taking his eyes out of his manga.

"What'd you mean?" Prima confusingly asks.

"For someone who has 3 degrees, you sure are quite dense sometimes when it comes to yourself." Ted says with his mouth upturned and his eyes glinting.

"You kinda used to be a little bit meek." Tarot says.

"I did?"

"Yeah" everyone says at the same time.

They then proceeded to talk about other subjects, with Mike sometimes talking to them and making them laugh, and sometimes reading back to his manga.

"Where's Lotus and Hadrian by the way?" Taylor asks, looking at her wrist.

Ted laughs loudly, which made everyone look at him confused. He then points his finger at Taylor and Tarot's back. What they saw was shocking and predictable at the same time.

A girl was wearing the longest black skirt they had ever seen, which almost touch the ground and a dark blue sweater with blue sneakers coming out of a pink convertible.

"Oh My God...What are you wearing?" Taylor asks in disbelief with her left hand hugging her stomach and her left hand on her mouth, trying to stop laughing, which didn't work.

"Well, as you can see, the worst case scenario happened." Lotus says, annoyed by everyone laughing at her.

"Honey...I'm...so...sorry." Taylor says while laughing between words.

"Ted, you can laugh...or you'll suffocate to death." Ted leaned onto a rail while punching on it.

"You should change your clothes." Prima says.

"I got them in my bags."

"Why didn't you wear them? Our dorms were on the way."

"That's the problem...My mom called the *devil* and was given the permission for me to wear rags." The *devil* was their headmistress who always give them the stink eye and made every opportunity to get them into detention.

Once there wasn't much talking, everyone in the group noticed the others looking at them.

Everyone's eyes were onto them. They were whispering.

"What are they doing here?"

"I thought they were expelled or suspended, at least."

"What would you expect, they're rich."

Although majority of the students are children of CEO's, inventors, scientist and almost all white collar workers. They weren't as rich as their group.

"Don't mind them, they're just jealous we've got everything." Tarot tells them.

"Not everything..." Mike whispers, but everyone in the group heard it.

"Where's Hadrian?" Lotus asked, making the gloomy atmosphere disappear.

"I don't think we'll see him for a while." Mike offers, not leaving his sight out of his manga.

"Is it bad?" Taylor asks.

"Worst." It was short, but they knew what it meant.

DING! DING! DING! DING!

The bell from the church rang, signalling them the start of the morning mass.
