*bring!* the bell for the school day sounded. Grade 8 was over for an entire week during march break, and I was completely relieved. I'm not the most popular kid in "oof!" I exclaimed as I was rammed into the garbage can in the hall. I heard a sneering laugh, and knew only one person could be responsible. "Shan...." I muttered under my breath. I looked up to see a pretty tanned girl with brownish hair standing in front of me. "Maybe you should look where your going." she said mockingly. I got up, brushed myself off, and then started with her "you know Shan, if you spent more time being nice to people and less time making my life hell, maybe you would actually have friends." I said. She glared at me "well maybe if you spent less time playing your stupid games and more time-" she was cut off by an energetic male voice and a karate chop between us

"Kamikazi!" the voice rang out. I looked in the direction of the chop and saw a somewhat scruffy looking tall boy with brown hair and brown eyes. "Len!" I exclaimed. Despite the fact that he is one of the smartest kids in the class, Len is constantly referred to as the "Dumbass" of the group of friends I am in (me being the "Annoying/weird one"). "are you two argueing again?" he asked us with his hands on his hips. At this Shan stuck up her nose and walked off, while Len and I stood in the hall. "Youy shouldn't her get to you, Erynn." he said to me. I sighed "thats easy for you to say. My god that girl is such a beeeeyatch." I put emphasis on pronouncing the swear word differently, at which point Len rolled his eyes. "Cmon. I bet your bus is here now." he said. with that, we walked outside.


when I got home I saw an odd sight in my room. My D-tector toy was sitting on my bed. "Huh?" I said. As I stepped through the premise, I was overwhelmed by an odd aura. "Whoa!" I exclaimed, stepping back. I slowly walked towards the blue and yellow D-tector, but as I stepped in front of it something odd happened. It floated up to eye level with me. I was to stunned to do anything, just stare at the floating toy. It started to glow, and I gained the strength to reach for it. Apower unlike any other washed over me as I grabbed it, and a flash of light eveloped me. There bwas a feeling of soaring, and then I blacked ot.
