This is Carrie's story there will only be a few chapters and then it will continue with Yumi's story, and then back here again. so if you want to know how she met the gang I would read taming the fire.

Chapter 1

I had woke up that day unaware, it was the day that set everything in motion. I pulled my long blonde hair into a high pony tail with a ribbon, and rushed down the stairs, fully intending to skip breakfast with my parents and younger brothers.

"Don't leave without telling dad bye!" My dad, a famous retired American wrestler called. He latched on to me, putting me in a choke hold. He was tall and completely buff with blonde hair to his shoulders, and a short beard.

"Dad I've gotta go!" I wiggled trying to breathe.

"I won't." He tightened his grip. "You've become so cold toward me since you started high school, you won't even fight with me anymore."

"Can it old man!" I growled elbowing him in the gut. He let go and I took the opportunity to flip him.

I ran to the door flinging it open.

"Dear Carrie's so mean!" My dad whined to my mother. "My own daughter hates me."

I hesitated before turning back around. "Aw dad I don't hate ya, I'll see ya when I get home."

"Carrie you be safe!" My mom called.

"Yeah mom." I gave her a grin and waved bye to all of them.

I looked like my father, tall with blue eyes and blonde hair. Nothing like my mother who was petite. The only thing I had from her was my face.

I do admit that I have a short temper and if I didn't like you( and that was most people) I let you know. I also tend to be a bit violent when I'm angry, which is a habit I should fix but with a dad like mine who wouldn't be.

I ran until I spotted the house I was headed to. An extremely pretty, short girl with long pink hair in a braid came rushing out.

"Yumi!" I tackled her.

"Ugh Carrie you're chocking me!" She laughed.

Yumi Tsukasa was my best friend, in fact probably my only friend. Her parents were the owners of some large company and were away most of the time. Something I didn't like but she just waved it off.

She was the sweetest girl I had ever met, treating everyone she met fairly. She liked everybody and unlike me never lost her temper. I loved being her closest friend, she was everything I wanted to be.

At the school gates the stupid fans of the pretty boy were going crazy again.

She giggled. "Looks like one of them has photos."

"Ugh what a nuisance! I growled. Is that Sochi bastard really so great!?"

"Oh come on Carrie don't say it like that, they're not doing any harm besides he could be nice guy we don't know that." She soothed trying to calm me down. "And his name is Suichi."

Suichi Minamono flawless in grades, looks and personality. He had a lot of admirers in both men and women. How could he not? His delicate features were quite pleasing to the eye with his fiery red hair and green eyes, compared to the normal brown coloring it was exotic to the Japanese. It didn't really have any special effect on me but it still stung to know that there was no way I could compete. He was just too pretty.

"Fine whatever." I huffed, taking one last look at the squealing girls, I would have liked nothing more than to give em a piece of my mind but Yumi made me see reason, before the bell rang forcing us to go our separate ways.

From what I remember she had been fine that morning when we walked to school together and during lunch. It was after that she started acting weird.

That day we hadn't walked home together. If I had known beforehand about what was going to happen. I would have dragged her home myself. But I didn't at the time, so I was completely clueless.
