Outcast Niel's POV I walk silently down the hallways, my black sneakers padding quietly on the floor. Holding my books, I hide my wand in between them and my chest. I can't let anyone see the feathers in the crystal ball. I get mocked, even sneered at, for my other form being a swan. The voices ring out in my head. "Girl." "Swan Boy." "You're a disgrace." "Get out of here! It's the male toilet! Go to the female one!" A strong hand pushes me out of the toilet. I bang against the wall, sliding down. Why was my form chosen to be a swan? They said it matched me best... I'm discovered. The bullies pull me back by my black hoodie. I struggle to break free, but one of them strikes me across the face. I collapse against the lockers, blood dripping out of the left corner of my mouth. It's not over. The bullies won't let it go so easily. They kick at my limp form, taunting me. Students and teachers walk by as if nothing's wrong. They never bother with me. Finally, the bullies go away. I'm left at the lockers, until someone comes to open his locker. I'm lying against it. He just kicks me aside without a word. My body flops limply to the ground, unable to move. I don't want to live anymore. Not in this cruel world. --- Short, I know.

Niel's POV ~Flashback~ "There's a fox, a leopard and a swan left. At least for now." A tall lady with raven-black hair, pale porcelain skin and blood-red lips says. She's the Animalix Chooser, Evron. Also the head of the school. I skim through the lists. Fox Witty, sly, cunning Leopard Agile in mind and body, a killer, sleek Swan Silent, hidden strength, protective I pray, Let it be the leopard. I changed schools to be rid of my earlier Swan Animalix. Let my life change. Evron clears her throat. Oops, I've been zoning out. I have a bad feeling she's going to say "Swan". "Your Animalix is a swan." She says, confirming my worst dreams. She casts a spell over me with her phoenix-feather wand and creates an onyx wand with a crystal ball on top, with swan feathers in it. I look down and there's a swan, with a feather drawn around it, on my right hand. I wince. Great, now everyone will know my Animalix is a swan. I've seen many of the symbols, most were cryptic and hard to decipher; take a paw print for a cat Animalix, for example. Or a blade of grass for a horse. Mine was so obvious. Just perfect. Evron sends me out the door. "Take care of your wand," she smiles. I roll my eyes after I turn away. Shuffling away, I somehow reach my dormitory. Take care of my wand? In her dreams. I throw the wand against the wall, and it smashes. Instantly, my right hand feels like it's ablaze. I clench my fist. If this is what I have to go through in order to lose my swan Animalix, I'd rather bear all the pain. Evron's in my room in an instant; I have no idea how she's so fast. Oh right, she's an Enchantress. I'm such a fool for thinking she wouldn't know. She pins me on my bed, gripping my throat. Her hand feels cold, like it's going to freeze me. In the next second, it's burning hot. "I said take care of your wand and your Animalix. One more time this happens and I'm going to torture you worse than this." She growls and then disappears. I lie on my bed. The wand's whole again, lying on my bedside table. I'm lucky I don't have a roommate. I have one of the single dorms. ~End of flashback~ I look into my dinner. It's a bowl of soup noodles, meant to be steaming. But it's ice-cold. I don't have the appetite to eat. Not when the swan symbol is staring straight up at me as I pick up the stainless steel fork. The bullies amble into the dinner hall. They stride right past me; I think the danger is over. But it's not. The leader, Key, pushes my head right into the bowl of noodles. He holds it there for an everlasting moment, before smirking and letting go. I throw my head back and take a deep breath of air. The whole dinner hall has erupted into laughter. I throw on my hood and run out of the hall. I rush into the bathroom, thinking it's safe. Bad choice. As I'm washing my face, Key and his lackeys come in. Two of them pull me back by my arms while Key lifts my face, holding my chin. "Time to get a taste of humiliation." He strikes me across the face over and over again. They pull me into a toilet stall, taking off my clothes by force. Key takes out a roll of black duct tape. He throws it to another one of his lackeys, and he tapes me down to the toilet seat. He tapes a piece over my mouth too. They snap photos. "This will be the talk of all social networks," Key smirks and leaves, slamming the stall door shut. Not long after, I hear the toilet door close. It's nearly bedtime for the student body. No one will discover me. I sigh. No, that isn't possible. The bullies taped me too tightly. I'll be stuck here until morning. (Credits for the toilet part: A Wattpad story ;P)
