Lockheart High Chapter 3 "Crush"

Chapter 3 Part 1 Crush

Study hall wasn't like anything Yuki expected. As she entered she was greeted by a paper airplane to the forehead. Every student was either standing next to or sitting on their desk talking or shouting with someone else. It was pretty clear that clicks has already begun to develop. She pushed her way down an isle and past a group of boys that wore their pants down so low that their underpants were exposed. She had the unfortunate pleasure of over hearing their rapping about smacking some bitches, rolling in dough and getting dirty with some dope. Yuki shook her head in annoyance and made her way to the first available seat near the back of the room. "Keep your eyes to your mother fucking self bitch, or I'ma slap you so hard your face will fall off!" Yuki's head turned to the direction of the voice in fear that she was the one who had been addressed so harshly. She saw the dark skinned girl from the bus. She had her left arm in a sling and a rather large bandage wrapped around her head. She was standing over the desk of a punkish looking girl with rainbow dyed hair. Her feet were propped up on her desk and she was chewing on a pencil. She didn't seem to even take notice of the large girl who shadowed her. The girl became even more annoyed and pushed a random chair down and kicked it across the room with a loud clatter. The classroom became quiet as everyone's attention was now on her. She took another step to the punk girl and got right in her face. She spat when she talked. "Bitch you deaf!" It was a statement rather then a question. The punk girl rolled her eyes in retort. "Watch this, watch this, bitch is gonna bleed!" One of the boys in the group started to get a little jumpy and blurted out to his friends a little to loudly while elbowing them in the chest. Suddenly the dark girl grabbed the punk girl by the vest and yanked her out of her chair. She was dangled a good few inches above the floor. The punk girl withdrew the pencil from her mouth. It was clear that she stood at least 2 feet taller then the punk girl and everyone knew this would end with rainbow hair on the floor and a puddle of bodily fluid. Yuki clenched her first as she watched the dark girl pull back her fist in slow motion and launch it forward right into the other girls face. The punk girl was sent flying across the room, over a desk and collided with the farthest wall in the room with a crack. She was motionless for far too long. No one dared to breathe until at last she lifted her head. There was blood gushing from her broken nose and she already had a swollen purple lip. Wait weren't her lips already purple? Yuki couldn't recall. The class began to laugh and shout rude remakes at the small girl. Yuki wanted to go help her but stopped, because the girl had pulled herself up and staggered to a desk to help support herself. She glared at the dark girl, smiled and made a small laugh. "Is that all you got?" The dark girl began to shake furiously then charged at the punk girl like a wild elephant. Yuki froze in terror but the punk girl was faster then the other and she lifted the pencil, jabbed it forward and jumped out of the way causing the large girl to slide into the wall and bounce off to the floor. The kids started to cheer them on. "Beat her ass Quinita!" "Rip out her hair Rainbow!" Surely they called her rainbow because of her hair. Quinita, a bit stunned, picked herself up and turned around. The pencil protruded from her neck. There was now a blood rage in her eyes as she charged at the punk again. She grabbed a hand pull of colorful hair and punched down on Rainbow, fist after first. Rainbow threw her arms up to block the blows but still suffered some severe impacts. Slowly Quinita started to tire out and her punches lessoned. Rainbow took the upper hand and dropped down to the floor, crawled between her legs and was on her back like a lightning fast spider monkey. Rainbow took ahold of her braids and yanked her head back and to the side. Quinta screamed out in horrific pain and fell to a knee. Rainbow then wrapped both legs and arms around the others neck and squeezed with every fiber in her little body until both of their faces became blue and Quinita became limp. Rainbow let go and dropped back down to the floor as Quinta's body thumped forward face first into a chair then onto the floor, tranquilized. The pencil snapped. Rainbow stood her ground, panting heavily and eyeing the students around her, daring someone else to take the next shot at her. No one moved or said a word. There was a ear shattering loud slap sound from the doorway. Every student instinctively turned to see who it was. With ridding crop in hand and her dress as ever tight as always, Mistress Valit strolled into the room and stomped purposefully across the floor to stand before the bloody scene.

"Vat is going ons in here?" Valit snapped the crop into the air in the direction of the girls and more then half the class jumped into action and took their seats. She bent down and used the end of the crop to move a lose braid from Quinita to clearly see her face. There was drool dripping from the corner or her plump lips and a sudden loud snort of a snore made Valit fault in surprise and disgust. Valit grunted and pulled the walkie from her her breast to her lips and spoke in a foreign language that could only be Russian. She walked back over to the blackboard and behind her desk as two white garbed officers entered the room and hurriedly whisked Quinita away. As soon as they left, Valit slammed her crop down hard on the desk. "Sit! Be silent and do yous homevorks!" The last remaining students sat including Yuki and Rainbow who made no attempt to wipe the blood from her nose. Time ticked by as painfully slow as possible. Yuki became quit bored of her English vocabulary and decided to glance over at the other girl. As she watched she noticed that Rainbow indulged herself gleefully in her 'Romeo and Juliet' book. A smile spread across her lips and she almost let herself laugh out loud. As much as she tried her best to hide it, it didnt go unnoticed. Yuki wanted to smile in return but before she knew it and quicker the the wind, Valit stood next to her desk and the crop smashed the book and the concealed comic inside it onto the desk. Rainbow slumped down in her seat. This small strange Rainbow dyed girl just seemed to be filled with non-stop surprises. Yuki found her to be somewhat appealing but wasnt given any time to think on it because Valit's voice cut into the air like daggers. "Little girl! Who doez you fink you iz that can just play in mi classroom and not work like the rest of the students?" Rainbow didn't answer, she didn't even raise her head to acknowledge the question. "Vere did you git thiz?" Valit separated the two books from one another shook the comic in Rainbow's face then smashed it into her still bloody nose. Rainbow still didn't respond. Infuriated, Valit placed her crop under her arm and began to tear page by page from the book, crumple them into balls and drop them on her head. As each one bounced off her head and into the desk Yuki could see the anger building up with redness on her cheeks until she was about to snap. Overwhelmed by guilt of not helping her before, Yuki stood up violently from her desk and blurted out the words before she even knew what she had done. "I gave it to her!" Both looked at her in shock. Valit glared, her lips became seriously pursed together. She looked back at Rainbow and whipped the book across the room so hard it hit a boy in the head and ricocheted into a corner near the door. Valit raised a long bony finger from her spider like arm and pointed it first at one girl then the other. "Yous! Yous two vill stay. The rest of you, git out now." Hesitantly the students began to pack up their books and supplies and fled the room as quickly as possible. The last boy, the one the comic had hit, tripped on a chair and stumbled as he did a slow motion running fall but recovered well enough to escape the room with his life. The three were left alone in the silent room. A lone paper plane fell from the lamp above as the lights began to flicker. Yuki's eyes followed the plane and before it hit the floor Valit was gone. Both girls were unsure of what just happened and they glanced at each other. Rainbow began to shrug her shoulders as a wishing sound could be heard. Before either girl could blink there was some sort of white stringy and very sticky thread on their wrists and ankles. It yanked them from their seats and under the desks causing them to topple over. Yuki grabbed for a nearby chair, it scratched along the floor like nails on a chalk board and hurt her ears until she was forced to let go. They were pulled to the front of the class room and strung up like puppets above the teacher's desk. The lights flickered again and the next moment Valit appeared right in front of Yuki. She yelped and tried to escape her blood curdling stare but was firmly held in place by the white vines. Valit gripped her ankles like vices and pulled her close to her own face. Valit's mouth opened wide, her jawbones cracked and popped as it began to expand in a inhumanly way. Yuki's body was uncontrollably trembling. She tried to scream but could not find her voice. A long blacked tongue rolled out of Valit's mouth and down to lick its way up Yuki's knee to the hem of her skirt. Her black eyes darted to Rainbow who quickly forced her eyes closed and turned her head away. This seemed to annoy Valit because she released her grip and made her way over to her. She roughly took ahold of Rainbow's jaw and forced her to look down and into her eyes. As her eyes were forced open and made their connection with Valit's dark and cold eye sockets Rainbow became completely expressionless and void. "Vell now my leetle Rainbow Brite. How about I bring back zat pretty leetle smile that ve saw before when you disrespected my presence." Rainbow made no attempt. "Very vell then. Let's do thiz."

Valit placed her gloved hands first on her ankles then slowly moved them up to her knees to where her stockings ended mid thigh. Rainbow didn't flinch. Valit continued up her thighs and under her skirt where she took ahold of her panties and ripped them completely off in one quick swipe. Rainbow raised her head and looked blankly at the woman. Valit smiled and began to move her hands under the skirt where Yuki could not see. Rainbow began to squirm uncomfortably from her touch but the web like vines held her firmly in place and pulled her feet apart. Rainbow gasped and Yuki could hear her begin to pant. Valit withdrew her hands and brought them together in front of her. She looked them both over carefully before she began to pluck each finger from the glove on her left hand and then finally slid it completely off. The glove dropped to the floor as both girls looked upon the horror that hid beneath it. Valit held up her nightmarishly gnarled hand and examined it in the still flickering lights. Long veiny fingers with barely any muscle or skin made it look skeleton. The back of her hand and palm appeared severely burned and grafted back together. Some terribly I'll fate had been wroth upon this woman's hand and turned her into the fiendish monster she had become. Yuki could barely stand to keep her eyes open but she feared for the rainbow girl and its all she could do and not abandon her in this dire need of company. She fought against the ropes as best as she could to free herself but to no avail. Valit brought her bone fingers to her mouth and inserted them to moisten the tips. When she withdrew them a spittle trail attached to them stretched from her lips and followed her movement, then they began to extend and grow into extended claw like talons. As her eyes widened, Yuki felt vomit burn her esophagus. Valit brought her hand down beneath the girl's skirt and as her fingers were inserted within, Rainbow blinked herself free from her trance and began to scream out. "Nooooo!" "YES!" Valit spat back at her as she began to plunge herself deeper and faster between the girls soft tissues. Yuki could see her body begin to shake violently. Her eyes locked closed as if to dismiss the nightmare that embraced her entire being. ("Stop it, your hurting her!") Yuki tried to speak but still could not get the woman's attention but her attempt did not go unnoticed. Valit's face became dark. Her cheeks began to sink into her jaw. Her hair came lose from its updo, darkened, and fizzled out around her like tentacles. Her black eyes protruded and multiplied. Was it just the lights and stress of the situation that was making her hallucinate or was she really transforming? Rainbow fought as much as she could but the sensation over took her convulsing body as she erupted with a tremendous scream and liquid spilled down Valit's mutated arm and dripped from her elbow into a puddle beneath her. As Valit withdrew her hand there was a wet pop sound and Rainbow's head went limp on her chest. As she hung there depleted and humiliated, Yuki could see her chest rising and falling at great speed until it stopped entirely. A single tear dripped down her face. The lights came back to normal as Valit bent down to pick up her discarded glove and slipped her gooey shrinking hand back into it. When she stood back up she seemed to be her blonde prudent self again. She reached up to make sure every hair was locked prominently in place then she eyed Yuki hungrily. Yuki tensed in fear that she would be next and scrunched her eyes closed to brace herself. She inhaled deeply and waited but the only thing she could hear was the beating heart pounding from within her chest. Suddenly both girls were released and their limbs collided with he wooden slats below them. Rainbow landed on her knees, lingered for a moment then her head plunged forward. Yuki scrambled to catch her before more damage was dealt. Once the girl's head was securely on her lap, Yuki dared for Valit to strike with her crop but when she glanced around the room she realized they were alone. Rainbow's flesh was cold to the touch. Yuki placed her ear to her chest but heard nothing. She began to sob hysterically over her dead classmate. Nothing in her life has even come close to preparing her for death even though at times she wished herself dead. Suddenly Rainbow's neck snapped back into place and she inhaled deeply as her lungs filled with air. She continued to gasp for some time before opening her eyes, she glanced up at Yuki and smiled. Great confusion over took Yuki as the lock on the door clicked itself open and the door swung slightly ajar allowing them freedom into the deserted corridors.

When Yuki pushed the door open to her dorm she saw Alice asleep in her bed. She quietly hauled Rainbow's semi conscious body into the room, dropped their backpacks and lead her over to her own bed. Rainbow fell onto it and stared at he ceiling. "I... I'm going to go to the cafeteria and get some food for us. Will you be alright while I'm gone?" Rainbow didn't reply, she just rolled over to face the wall and pulled a pillow into her arms to cradle. Yuki had the sudden urge to slide into bed with her and wrap her arms around the disturbed girl but the aching rumble in her stomach reminded her of her hunger so she turned and headed out gently shutting the door behind her. She sprinted down the corridor and down two flights of stairs to the south wing to the cafeteria. By this time there was hardly anyone there and the few that were had already long since finished eating lunch. There wasn't much left to pick from in the way of food either. Everything was already eaten or put away. She grabbed a red food tray, placed it on the conveyor belt and slid it down to grab two plastic wrappers containing napkins and sporks, a few muffins, two fruit cups, a box of juice and milk and the last remaining ham sandwich. There was a small group of students sitting at a table behind her. A girl noticed her and pointed. Soon the others glanced over towards her and started to whisper amongst themselves. Yuki was actually used to this type of behaviour from her old school. Rumors were easy to spread when your small minded and nieve. She approached the cashier and pressed her thumb to the scanner to pay. It beeped once and the cashier pushed a few buttons on the register. Yuki placed her tray on the return rack and stuffed everything she could into her shirt then darted back to her dorm. Alice's bed was empty when she returned. She made her way over to the sleeping girl, knelt down and emptied the food contents onto the mattress. Rainbow rolled over and looked at her with swollen puffy eyes. She had obviously been crying while Yuki was out. "Are you hungry or just thirsty?" Rainbow nodded and held out her hand. Yuki opened the juice and placed it in her hand then opened the sandwich and handed her a half. Rainbow ate and drank everything she was giving then nestled herself back down on the bed with a deep sigh which invited her back to sleep. Yuki sat between the beds on the floor cross-legged and nibbled her half of the sandwich. As she watched the girl sleep she fought the greedy urge to pet her silky colored hair and explore it. Bright pink bangs that gradually turned into red then orange and yellow just above her slightly pointed ears then green beneath then blue and purple as it spread out across her neck. She looked like a living painting. The girl had slightly pudgy cheeks and soft supple looking lips. Then she noticed that the girls teeth rested on her bottom lip slightly protruding and looked almost like tiny fangs. Yuki felt the tingle deep within her and it sent shivers that created goosebumps. She enjoyed the feelings that she experienced being near the mysterious Rainbow girl. As she finished her food, she rested her head on the edge of the bed and began to nod off into her dreams.
