That next morning...
Granum's POV

Rielle and I walked to our first class, Advanced Deathology, where we sat in the back. Luckily, the teacher, Ms. Vanderscythe, was really fast with notes so we typed as fast as she could speak. "Wow, I never knew she could speak so fast." Rielle said, as we walked out of class. Luckily, Rielle was doing a seek and destroy course and I was doing something called The Leadership Course (Hades' Choice). It was only a matter of time while we were walking, I bumped into somebody and knocked her books down. "Oh, sorry." I apologetically said, while helping her pick them up. "I'm Grannum, this is my girlfriend, Rielle. What's yours?"
She got a marker and a whiteboard and wrote:
"Margo. Sorry, I can't talk."
"Pleasure to meet you, Margo." Rielle said.
"Thanks."
"So where you headed?"
"My roommate kicked me out earlier today so I got no place to stay."
"How about you stay with us? We'd love to have another person live with us."

A few moments later...
"That's the last box."
"Thanks, Grannum." She wrote on her whiteboard.
"So why don't you talk?"

Margo's Story
It started when my mom left. I was beaten both in school and home. I went to Underworld High and it was miserable there. I was called "freak", " whore", etc. I stopped talking because of this one and incident; I woke up to my dad and two other guys raping me. I was in so much pain, it went on for two weeks. I got accepted to the Academy to get revenge.

Rielle's POV
I walked up to the dorm while listening to Hope by We Came As Romans,

Sometimes I feel so wronged
Like I've been held down
I feel my heart, like a rock, it's sinking
These days can get so dark
Like an eclipse in the sky
But I can rise above I can find the light

I can run, I can change all the answers
Or what I hope they'd be

I won't stop, I won't let my own questions
Fade away in my dreams

Don't fade away

We won't fall to our knees
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer
Are you in? Are you out?
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer

We all fall, crawl out of the fear you're in
Don't give up
We won't fall to our knees
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer whoa whoa
So give me an answer now whoa whoa
Give me an answer

Stand up, you have a voice to be heard
You're worth more than words
Don't let your fire burn out
Your flame won't be lit again when your candles burnt at both ends
And there's nothing left

You can change
You can become selfless
You're not set in stone

You will wade through mistakes that we all make
But just hold on

Don't fade away (hold on)

We won't fall to our knees
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer
Are you in? Are you out?
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer

We all fall, crawl out of the fear you're in
Don't give up
We won't fall to our knees
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer

We are the one true hope (whoa)
So are you with me (whoa)
Or will you fall to your knees? (whoa)

We are the one true hope (whoa)
So are you with me (whoa)
Or will you fall to your knees? (whoa)

We are the one true hope
We are the one true hope

We won't fall to our knees
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer
Are you in? Are you out?
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer

We all fall, crawl out of the fear you're in
Don't give up
We won't fall to our knees
We are the one true hope
So give me an answer whoa whoa
Give me an answer now whoa whoa
Give me an answer

As I walked to the door, I heard a voice. "Red?" I knew he'd find me. Rain.
