Under the gleaming morning sun students could be seen walking into school, their bags hanged by their side as they walked in groups chatting amongst themselves happily.
Whack!
The sound of someone being hit repeatedly sounded just at the entrance the school piequing the attention of the passing students as they paused to watch gossiping amongst themselves.
"Hey who's getting beaten so early in the morning?" A student whispered not wanting to be heard by the group of people trashing the person on the floor.
"Who else? It's Eden" Another student replied with a shrug as he stared at the silver haired boy on the floor who was curled up into a ball, for a moment he paused without an expression on his face before he suddenly burst into laughter.
"Fucking pussy can't even stand up for himself, haha"
"Yeah he can't even handle some child's play"
"Weird bastard thinks he's human like the rest of us, dream on!"
"Haha, I hope they beat him to death"
With the first person speaking up every other person followed suit mocking and insulting the poor young man on the floor further fueling the bullies to attack him more violently.
They all had twisted smiles on their faces as they revelled in pleasure seeing the pathetic state Eden was in, but the young man on the floor didn't seem that distorted as he grit his teeth in anger enduring the pain.
After a while they had beat him to their satisfaction and had left so had the on lookers leaving Eden on the ground, he weakily raised his body almost stumbling as he stood.
'Another fucked up morning...' He thought to himself as he bent to pick his belongings before entering the school building, walking through the hallways with his now haggard look he could hear gossiping as he received stares of contempt.
Although Eden knew it didn't really matter if he looked haggard or not they would still treat him the same, after all it wasn't because of the bullying they kept away from him.
Anyone new at the school would be surprised and ask, "Why does he get so beat up everyday? And why do everybody keep away from him?"
Well the matter was a disturbing one, a year ago Eden and his family had been at a hotel staying there for an holiday break when his family was attacked leaving only Eden who was found out with a knife and the blood of his family stained on his hands and the weapon.
He was arrested and after investigation was found not guilty and released but people taunted him, calling him a murder and treating him as though he wasn't human.
He had grown accustomed to it and his heart had turned solid rock already, accepting the bullying but it got worse and worse as time went by.
As Eden had entered the classroom he was met by the mocking stares of his class mates that seemed to penetrate his soul he ignored them and made his way into the class limping slightly.
"Mr Eden, why are you coming to class by this time and why do you look so rough and tattered?!" Ms. Ross questioned her voice calm with a smile stuck on her face, Eden knew the smile was fake and that she hated him to the core but she had just asked after him because it was her 'Job.'
"I got ran over by a car and fell into dirt" Eden said as he turned to look at her with dead eyes but she had no change in expression.
"I'll have no choice but to grade you low if you keep coming late and looking tattered everytime" She said as though she really cared for his well being but he knew the truth, she didn't care about shit no one did.
But it annoyed him and he couldn't hold back anymore.
"You know the reason why I'm like this yet you're talking crap as if you don't! Go to hell Ross you fucking slut!" Eden yelled with blood shot red eyes that stared at Ms.Ross with fury catching making her and the whole class stunned.
"Did he just retrot at Ms.Ross?"
"He yelled at our homeroom teacher?!"
"This bastard he yelled at Ms.Ross, how dare he!"
The students were in shock as they whispered amongst themselves, in al their years of being in the same class as Eden even before the incident he was never rude and was always nice after the incident be became timid so this really came as a shock to them.
"You! How dare you tell at me you bastard murderer!" When Eden heard this his eyes opened wide but soon turned to normal he hadn't expected that for her at all at least she was his homeroom teacher if not anything.
"Get out of my class!"
With that command Eden tightened his fist and turned around leaving the class and heading up to the rooftop, he dropped his bag on the floor and walked over to the fence and climbed it.
He was tired and wanted to end it all, he wasn't the killer but the world called him one even calling him a heartless monster. Looking at the view below he knew if he just took a step he could end it all but suddenly a question popped into his head.
Why? Why am I the one that needs to die? I didn't do anything yet they blamed me cursed me and wished for me to die!
Why me and not them? It should be them!
Ding!

Looking at the holographic screen that suddenly popped up Eden was stunned but he and felt this to be sureal but he chose either way.

Suddenly the earth began shaking as though an earthquake had started but it was a large scaled one stumbling Eden off the fence.
