• All I ever wanted was to make them smile, to be proud and happy it was my life long goal, but I was born a disaster..... I would always move every year new place, new house, new school.... But it was all the same still, the same heartless, cold people who spat in my direction. Their first glace at me and the would mark me as a freak, they wouldn't even have to see my face to do that..... 'Stay away from her' Mothers would whisper to their children as I passes by, 'Get out you FREAK!', 'Go back where you came from you MONSTER!'. These are things I normally hear in my everyday life..... What was the point of living if I had to face the same cycle over and OVER?'HELLOOOOOO!!!!!!" I stood emotionless in front a girl who jumped out of nowhere and greeted me in a overly exited way......... What is wrong with her no human has ever spoken to me besides-
    "Sorry if I scared you I was just to exited cuz your a new student and you looks so different from the other people her and-"
    "I believe startled is the more preferable term...." I said cutting her off knowing she would continue to babble until I spoke.
    "Oh yeah.......YOU THINK IMA FREAK DON'T YOU?!" The girl said over dramatically, looking like she was about to cry.
    "Yes," I said bluntly with a smile on my face, the girl started tearing, "But it's okay, being a 'freak' is being different and someone very special told me that being 'different' is just another way of being unique," I said kindly. She stopped tearing, what a cute girl she actually had a heart instead of those people who have cold water running through their veins instead of blood...... I stated walking away.
    "WAIT!" She shouted as she grabbed the sleeve of my uniform, "I- I'm Haruko, can we be friends!?"
    "Heh.....Sure," I said, she beamed with excitement, "I'm Alyss," I said as I held my hand out waiting for her to shake hands with me to conceal our friendship.
    "YAY!!!!" She squealed and hugged me tight instead of shaking hands...... Oh boy.......Haruko...... It's going to be like taking care of an energetic puppy........
    The first day of school passed by, even though I made my first REAL friend that is not related to me..... I still didn't feel content without Creed around, it was like an empty hole in my heart....... Well at least with Haruko, I could help Creed with his studies of humans....... Well that's another thing we have in common we never really had a really had a friend besides each other.......
    "Hey I want to come over to your house tomorrow!" Haruko said as we got our things from our lockers, preparing to go back home.
    "Well, I have to ask first....." I replied.
    "Oh so your parents have rules and are strict about 'em?" I cringed when she had said 'parents'....
    "I don't have any......."
    "WHAT?" Haruko said, I didn't reply, "Then who do you have to ask if you live alone?" Haruko said halfway changing the subject, not wanting to go in too deeply to my not-having-parents-thing......
    "My older brother,"
    "Oh, what's his name?"
    "Creed.... If you want to meet him he's picking me up," I said as we began to walk out once the bell rang.
    "Oh okie!" She said cheerfully, exited to meet someone close to me. He was parked in front of the school catching every girls eyes, since he was wearing his sunglasses making him look mysterious.....
    "Creed, I want you to meet Haruko," I said as I pointed at Haruko who was deeply gazing at him. She stood on her tippy toes and took off his sunglasses.
    "Haru-?"
    "OHMIGOSH!!!!" She shouted catching everybody's attention and cut me off as well. She looked back and forth from me to Creed, "You guys look exactly a like!!!"
    "Well were twins...." He said.
    "And don't shout so loud, you nearly broke my eardrums....." I said holding my head, my ears still ringing from her scream..... "Well I got to go..." I said as Creed started the engine of the Motorcycle and tossed me a helmet, I hopped on. "See ya tomorrow Haru,"
    "YAY I HAVE A NICKNAME!!! BYE ALYSS!!!" Haruko shouted as we zoomed away.
    "So you made an acquaintance?" Creed asked as we passed by the cars, stuck in traffic.
    "Well I wouldn't call her an 'acquaintance'...." I said, "More of a....... Friend"
    "Oh...... So she's 'different' from the others?" He asked in a tone of suspicion, "Or is it what she wants you to think?" He said more angrily.
    "Creed!" I snapped, "Not every human is cold and heartless as YOU think or as you see, one of the other reasons why I couldn't make any 'acquaintances' was YOU!"
    "I'm sorry," He said a little softer, driving slower as we got closer to our 'house', " I just don't want you to get hurt....." He trailed off as he parked the bike.
    "Well instead of her calling me a freak like the other heartless humans, she expected me to call HER a freak instead," I chuckled as I hopped of the bike, "She's a very interesting person, I wish to know her more as well as how she lives....."
    "Well I'm glad for you,"
    "Creed why don't you come to school with us?" I asked. Even though I made my first real friend, I still felt empty without Creed... There was a long silence.
    "I'll think about it..." He finally answered as he got off the bike.
    "Oh, okay," I said, "Well ummm...... Haruko want's to come over is that okay?" I said changing the subject as we walked to the doorstep.
    "No the house is a mess, as a mess I mean all the 'equipment' is scattered all over the place...." He answered, "Just go shopping..." He said unlocking the door.
    "But we don't have a ride," I pointed out.
    "Fine I'll attach that extra seat on the side of the bike and I'll just drop you off at the mall...."
    "Ok," I agreed as I followed him into the 'basement', which was really the main laboratory since he hand another one in the attic. But the basement lab was for tech experiments and the attic lab was for other experiments. I sat down on the steel bed where I was usually 'updated' on and watched Creed work on one of his new weapons.
    "Creed can you come with us?" I said breaking the silence.
    "To where?" Creed said as he connected the two wires to correctly function the weapon, "Oh you mean shopping... No I'll be busy tommorow"
    "Awwww, please?" I begged. When I'm around Creed I always act like a cute little girl since that's really who I am, outsiders, including Haruko, see me as a mysterious, laid-back person...
    ".......No..." Creed said, having second thoughts. Creed was actually an over protective, easily jealous brother, and his jealously made him kinda cute too...
    "Well..." I said, "I guess it'll just have to be only me and Haruko only alone without supervision in the big city.." I said overexaggerating. I saw Creed freeze for a moment.
    "Fine." He said giving in, "When?"
    "Tommorow,thanks Creed," I said kissing him on the cheek, and started to leave the room I turned around before I stepped out. I saw him with his hand on the cheek I kissed him on, I bet he was blushing. I giggled to myself, and headed to bed.
    "NYA!" I shouted, waking up to my built in alrm clock, installed in my data. I headed to the bathroom to fix myself. In a few minutes I was all ready.
    "Are you ready Alyss?" Creed shouted from across the hall.
    "Yeah!" I replyed
