Description Ariana’s whole body tensed as the teacher tread down the school hallway. The sunset gave off a stunning glow as it filtered into the school but the warmth didn’t make the young child feel any better. She knew Mio, her mother, was waiting outside the school entrance, ready to pick her up from her weekly counseling. Ariana was not ready to go. No. She was much to enraged, hurt, and disgusted by this horrible person strutting down the hallway as if he owned the place.

The horrid man named Mr. Tomi has harassed Ariana’s teacher, yet again. Time after time Ariana saw this constant abuse the man would show. Yet Miss Kamiya would never defend herself – she just accepted it. He would harass her and call her horrible names, call her an awful teacher and numerous other things. It made Ariana upset. Very, very upset. And she saw him take something from Miss Kamiya’s desk when she wasn’t looking. Ariana sought to find out what that was.

With a small and quiet gait she followed him into the stairwell leading down to the first floor. He didn’t see her, nor could he hear her as he was mumbling and chuckling to himself. Ariana crept up behind him and listened to his mumblings. He seemed clearly engrossed in whatever he was reading – the book he stole. Ariana’s blood ran cold when she realized whose book it was.

“So the mute child’s father is deceased. How tragic.” He muttered, hissing under his breath mockingly. “Traumatic childhood. Suffered emotional abuse.” His eyes scanned over every word with such spite. “No wonder she’s screwed up.”

Ariana balled her hands into fists and felt a surge of hatred swoop through her. How dare this horrid man make fun of her like that! He has no right to look at her personal records – it’s wrong. Even being young, the small girl knew that. Every word, every single thing he said made her sick. She hated him so much. He was so cruel and awful, and he made fun of her and Miss Kamiya on a daily basis. But he’s well loved by the school administration so they could never fire him…

“And they thought Kamiya could help this girl? She suffers from two disorders, her family life was horrible growing up, and she has intense fear and is skittish around men. Yeah. She’s a keeper.” He chuckled darkly, flipping to another page. “She sounds like a huge burden. She has an older sister and her mother. Heh. I bet they wish she’d never been born.”

Ariana’s body began to tremor and she a pulse of pure hate rip through her. No! NO! They’re not like him… They love me! I’m not a burden. I-I’m not a mistake!!

Her eyes got glazed over with memory of the same words spoken before. I wish you had never been born… You’re a pain. You’re a nuisance.. Why can’t you just go away?

It was as if her body was controlled by someone other than her. She felt the weight of the world on her shoulders, yet felt lifeless at the same time. She needed to do something. If she couldn’t get this man fired then she would do something else. He needed to never work at this school ever again. Then he could never hurt any more students or teachers. She didn’t hesitate when she reached out, and with her tiny hands, pushed the unsuspecting man down the stairs.

A wave of fear swept over his face which was soon replaced with horror as he realized what was happening. It was like slow motion as he fell. Ariana didn’t even blink as she watched him attempt to grasp onto the railing, nor when he managed to catch hold of it. His feet swept out from under him, he hit the hard stairs and then tumbled down at a fast pace before hitting the floor and being knocked unconscious. She couldn’t even process what happened only that she felt like she had protected herself and Miss Kamiya by doing this. Her mind was numb and listless and the sentence "You’re a monster!” kept repeating like a broken record.

Scene from my story, Ring a Bell. It's towards the later part of arc 1. It's kinda spoilerish but not so much because I didn't put a lot of detail into it. I'll put more into it once I write the actual chapter. ~ u ~ If you have any questions, just ask.

I also gave Ariana one hair color when she's younger, as apposed to her split hair, since it makes more sense for her to have that when she's older and can dye the right half. So when she turns 14 she does her split dye. So basically her arc 2 and arc 3, aka normal appearance, are the ones that have it.)

This was a fun speedpaint~ <3 I really enjoyed it. I love drawing scenes from my stories. I haven't drawn any serious scenes so it was quite refreshing to do this. I feel my serious and emotional art turns out lovely~~! I threw a livestream so some of my friends could watch and they had fun.

Here's the sketch before it was colored~ I like my sketches. ; u; You can see some things I changed! [link]

I love the story so muchIt has so much detail and emotion and it's just so powerful. I practically felt Ariana's rage in my own body and it was just so beautifully written. The comic is amazing too. I think it's got quite a bit of detail even though you did it rather quickly. I really love the last two panels. The emotions behind her expression and that line....it's chilling. I really like this. ;w; And of course, I adore precious Ariana too.~

Wow, the story is what sells it! I love this art style. I really like her expression in the last panel. It shows how numb she feels, but then the story explains what was happening in her mind before and.. ahh emotions!

Ohmygoodness! ;///; Eee. Thank you so much, honey! I'm happy you think that. I actually wrote it really quickly because I'm going to focus on adding more detail later, when I actually get to the scene.

Thank you so much! ; u; I really like speedpainting. This actually turned out really well without line art.

I'm glad you could feel the emotional aspect of this! That's what I was looking for in both the art and the writing~ After all, this is a pretty emotional story!
