I wanted to change the subject. "So what's your favorite spell?" It was a cheesy idea...

"U-uh..." I stutter. "I d-don't r-really have o-one..." I'm kinda frightened by this girl, pretty despite her scars, who killed someone...

I began to feel a weird energy. I turned to the girl. Thick waves of fear and betrayal was coming off of her. She didn't trust me enough. I had no clue why... unless I revealed something that would have blown my cover. I really wanted to be her friend. i hadn't had one since Jared died. No one ever seemed to warm up to me. I can't blame them for these ugly scars...

i turned from the shaken girl. I can't live like this... people always doubting my goodness... if i had any. It was hard to live in a world when your father was expecting only evil and darkness from you. I hated it... but i trusted my father dearly. I yearned to see the light but my eyes would always be deceived by darkness...

I walk in to the dorms and see a new girl. "Hey, I'm Devin, what's your name?" I say politely.

"Kyler..."

"Awesome! How may years have you been here? I don't recognize you, obviously, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you your name," I say, trowing my head back and laughing.

"I'm a... new I guess. This is my first day..." I said turning toward Elwyse, who was still in a fit of shock and fear

I turn my head to where Kyler is looking and see Elwyse, betraying no emotion. I gasp. "Elwyse, what's wrong?!" I say in shock. When ever she has no emotion, something is wrong. And when she betrays no emotion, that means she's not going to tell me what's wrong. I might as well try.
