The Quiet Girl (my short story)
She had been wandering the halways for a couple of years now, hardly anyone ever noticed her, she was so quiet...Or was it because she was so strange? She allways carried around a sketchbook and a couple of notebooks that she allowed no one to see, but every now and then someone would catch a glimpse of a fantastic creatures drawn there. Sometimes one would bump into her in the hallway and three steps later realize she smelled like wildflowers, to say the least, she was odd but she seemed happy enuf, to begin with. At the beggining of the school year she bounced happily along singing softly under her breath as she went. But as the year wore on she gradually lost the bounce in her step and grew quiet and withdrawn into her thoughts. Those who had class with her said she fidgeted more. Or at least, this would probably be the introduction this tale would have,from someone else's perspective as they tell my tail as if it were a ghost story. But anyway, I had become slowly more and more depressed and restless. I really wanted a boyfriend and I saw everyone around me in love and happy. (not really but it seemed that way) I had a boy I liked, but he didn't notice me and I was too shy to speak to him. Finally one day coming back from lunch I broke down. "I hate this life," I mumbled to myself, "I can't take this anymore. I-" and then I let loose an earthshattering, Heartrending, shreik, but not just a regular scream, this scream became a howl. My teeth became fangs as soon as I opened my mouth and the rest of the transformation occured. My nails became wicked, daggerly claws and I grew a snow white tail (yuki shiroi shippo XD)and animal ears on the top of my head like a cat's. My legs became strange, a dog's rear legs and as I opened my eyes from the scream they became scarlet slits. the ENTIRE student body turned to see the display so I did what anyone else would do in this situation; I ran and jumped out a window leaving only my shoes behind. Our school has this strange idea that a garden in the middle of the middle of the buildings will beautify the premises so it was that I landed amid roses and honeysuckle (it was almost summer) on my feet and then my right hand for balance. "Oh my God!" I said breathlessly while simultaneously wondering why I jumped out the window and how I'd survived. Above me I heard astonished crys and whispers but to my right I saw Phillip sitting on a stone bench. (Phillip is the boy I like) He glanced up with his tear-stained face revealing he to suffered my affliction. His gilded eyes softened and time stopped (or at least so it seemed) "I see I'm not alone Kibo." said sweet Phillip who obviously knew my name as his ebony tail flipped a bit. "Let's go." he said. So we bounded off and life resumed without us.

The End
