A/N: Uhh, this is the first chapter of our book thing, which we caled "May" because we couldn't think of any other title that was good enough. Enjoy...?

Summary: May is a 7 year old girl with a carefree attitude. After running away from the orphanage she used to call home, May finds herself in the city of Oxford about to attend 2nd grade. May's unique personality is noticed almost instantly. With a classroom full of different characters, May makes friends with four children in particular. The first is Monica, a bored and serious girl. Mimi, an innocent and sweet girl. Joe, an annoyed and smart young boy, and Phouthorn, a shy and sensitive little boy May loves to tease frequently. Managing to live in Monica's closet secretly while on the run from the orphanage, May looks for a place in which she can call home.

Chapter One: May

A little girl around the age of 7 ran through the dark streets of London, running from the bullies that would bully her everyday of her miserable little life. Her name was May, and she had straight black hair that went to her mid-back, and brown eyes. She thought it was stupid to be named after a month, especially if you got teased about it. I mean, why May? Why not June or December even? She personally thought that May was a stupid name and a stupid month. June was a way more prettier name and month. May was an orphan, and she lived in a shabby orphanage- until she ran away from that hell hole. Her parents had dumped her when she was about a year old- the orphanage lady had told her so- and said that her parents had left the name 'May' withher in the basket.

May had been bullied even when she was in the orphanage. Every single day, themean bullies would come to her when she was in town with the mean lady, and they had taunted her. But of course, the mean lady never did anything to stop them, all she did was tell them to go away, and she'd turn around.She had no friends at the orphanage because of her strong vocabulary which she picked up from the older kids. Her only friend was the small kitty named Snow. Of course, she didn't mind the name Snow as much as she minded the name May. But nomatter how hard she argued with the higher-ups, she could never get her name changed into something nicer, more fitting. Because they had this stupid rule about names, and all that stupid stuff.

So now here she was, in the alley, running from those over-grown, stupid, big fat smelly shit-heads that were chasing her. All she did was kick one of them in the shin and call them pigs. No harm done, right? Geez, and even after an hour or so of running, they still hadn't given up on her. May cursed some more, and climbed up a giant fence. Once she was at the top, she looked for any signs of those nincompoops. Just as soon as she thought that they had stopped following her, she saw 2 of the 6 boys still running. They were panting, and running at a very, very slow pace. May frowned, and started to tease them. "You big fat losers! You can't do anything right can you?! You're so over weight that you can't run for an hour without sitting down and eating food! That's all you care about, isn't it? Food this, food that! When you jump in the air, you stay up for five minutes until you fall back down. You have your own gravitational field, don't you? Loser! Go find someone your own size to pick on! Literally!"

Satisfied with her rant, May ran off to her little hide-away. It was a small basement in an abandoned building that she found few days back when she first ran away. It had a sofa, and a bookshelf for her belongings- not that she had many. She plopped down on the bed, and sighed. She looked around once more before drifting off to sleep. The next morning, May woke up to sound of traffic. She got out of her bed- which was none the less too cozy- and heard her stomach grumble. "I'm hungry." May said to herself. She looked around, and saw pink stuff on the walls "Ooh! Pink stuff on walls!" Excited, May ran off and tore a piece out of insulation, which she thought was cotton candy. She happily took a bite, before making a face of disgust, and spitting it back out.

"Ewww! Note to self: pink stuff on walls, not cotton candy." Seeing as she had nothing left to do, she reached into her bag and pulled out the registration sheet of the school that she supposed to go to in three days. Unfortunately for her, the school was in Oxford, and she didn't have any money for the train. But she thought that she could fit in a suitcase, so she packed the rest of her belongings and headed for the train station.

At the train station, she sought out a train that was headed for Oxford. Lucky for her, she found a suitcase in front of the train that she was supposed to go on. She opened the suitcase, and dumped all its contents into the trashcan. She made sure that no one was looking, before she climbed in the suitcase and closed it… somehow.

Minutes later, she felt someone lift up the suitcase. "When did this thing get so heavy?" she heard the man say. Just then she heard another voice, which she assumed was the train conductor.

"I'll take that for you sir." said the train conductor. She felt the suitcase being carried to someplace, and then she was thrown somewhere, and the suitcase landed with a thump.

"Oww." exclaimed May.

'Who said that?" the train conductor said.

"Uhh, meow?" meowed May.

"Oh, it's just a cat. What was I thinking? I thought it was a little girl! Bad Bambi!" The train conductor started to talk to himself more, and left the compartment in which May was in.

"What an idiot! What kind of name is Bambi? Isn't that the name of a deer?" May said to no one in particular. The train conductor came back in.

"Who said that?" he said again.

"Uhh, woof, woof?" said May again.

"Oh a dog! I think I'm crazy. I really should be retiring soon." said the train conductor. The train conductor left once more, and a few minutes later, the train started to move. May got out of the suitcase, and looked out the tiny window.

"Bye, bye you stupid poopy orphanage! Hello Oxford!" May said, and thus began her journey to Oxford.

A/N: Okay, this was the first chapter, yes, it sucks, we know. But we had fun writing it, and as you can see, it has no plot what so ever. But please give us a review on how we did. Thank you
