# Back from the dead

We are young, we are strong, we will rise
'Cause I'm back, back,back from the dead tonight

The alarm clock beeping started suddenly, waking up the girl from her sleep. She felt so tired, 'cause she had struggled a lot before managing to fall asleep the night before. And she knew why, though. She would never admit it, but she was nervous. For many reasons. It was weird to be at home again with her parents. And they were weird too. Their new way of acting was so kind and well-disposed that quite gave her a shock. It was so true that sorrow changed people. Beside that, even thinking about high school worried her. What did she have to expect from that? She knew that it wouldn't have been easy. Not easy at all.

-flashback-

Her parents and her sit at the table, ready to have dinner.

"It's nice to have you here again, darling" begins her father." How are things going at Academy?"

" I'm happy to be here with you too " says he playing with her food. "Everything's ok there. Upstairs have been very sympathetic and they have also helped me filling in transfer papers and so on. My squad reacted badly at the news, but they will understand"

Her mother looks at her tragedy has left heavy signs on her. She looks grown old all in a sudden. "Oh, honey. You didn't have to do all this. I'm so sorry that you had to leave all that "

"Don't worry about that, mom. Ok? I'll be fine. I'll attend an high school here and I'll also give you a hand with the shop. I don't want to leave you alone"

They eat in silence for some moments, until her father talks again.

"Which high school are you thinking to attend? There's one only 30 minutes far away from here and it has good study plans and great prospectives for attending college. I think its name is Everton High School "

"No, dad. It's a private school, the rent would be too much expensive. I've forwarded an admission request to Liberty High School and it has been accepted. It's the nearest here, I'll graduate there "

Her mother opens wide her eyes. "Good Heavens! Why the Liberty? After all that happened..."

"They will all stare at you, sweetheart. They'll talk about you and they will never leave you alone" insists her father giving her a worried look.

She sighs, understanding her parents' concerns. But the decision has already been made. "Mom, dad, I know that. I know that it won't be easy at all. But I'll be alright.I can make it"

'Nothing can upset you' said the girl to herself raising from the bed. Once in the bathroom, she had a shower and got dressed quickly, avoiding to look at the mirror. She didn't manage to stand her reflection, not from That day. She rejected those thoughts from her mind, she couldn't allow herself to be weak in that moment. After having breakfast, she kissed her mother and went to school, trying not to get lost on her first day. Stopping for a while on the sidewalk, she looked for her headphones in her bag, but she didn't find them. With a snort, she started turning upside down her books, when a red car stopped beside her.

" You okay?" said a male voice.

" Oh, yes. Just looking for my headphones " she raised her head, noticing a young boy with a black leather jacket. His expression suddenly changed, as if he had just seen a ghost, when their eyes met.

" It can't be... Hannah? "

Her eyes became wide open when she heard that name. It still pained a lot hearing it. Like thousands knives to the heart.

" No, I'm not. I'm Lena " she said looking at him.

" Oh... I-I'm sorry. You really look like a person that- " murmured him, but she interrupted him.

" I know that. I'm... her sister "
