"It's my first day at my new school, Collège Françoise Dupont, and I can NOT be late." I think to myself as I head to class. "Let's see, I'm in Miss Bustier's class… Ah! Here it is." I knocked on the door. "Oh. Class, we have a new student today, come on in Kateri." I heard the teacher, must be Miss Bustier, say from the other side of the door. "Good morning Kateri, why don't you introduce yourself to the class?" The teacher said. "Um… Hi. I'm Kateri Rose. I used to live in the United States, I just moved to Paris for my dad's job. I'm a bit shy, but I'm really a huge nerd at heart." I shyly say, standing in front of the class. "Welcome Kateri, there's an empty bench in the back, why don't you sit there?" The teacher told me. I replied with a quiet thank you and went to my seat. In front of me was a boy with red hair sitting alone, who appeared to be drawing something and a girl with dark brown hair. The lesson started, and ended a bit early, so I got a chance to see what the class was like. A girl with dark… blue? hair approached me, along with a brunette. "Hi, my name is Marinette, and this is my friend Alya. As the class representative, I just wanted to welcome you to our class! I hope you'll be able to make some great friends soon!" The girl with pigtails, Marinette, said. "Yeah, and if you have trouble with anyone, don't hesitate to tell us, Mari here has stood up to all the class bullies this year." The other girl, probably Alya, added. "Thanks, it's nice to feel welcome. Since you both have been here for awhile, do you have any advice about the other students?" I asked. The last thing I wanted was to accidentally offend someone or get in the wrong crowd. "Well, the class bully is Chloe, the blond in the front. Try to steer clear of her, and her "friend" Sabrina, the girl next to her. Anytime something doesn't go her way, she runs for her "daddy," the mayor of Paris. Nino and Adrien, they guys who sit in front of us, are nice, but Mari here has a crush on Adrien, so don't try to get involved with him…" "Alya!" "... and I'm dating Nino." Alya told me. Now I knew to stay away from the blond in the front, and I don't plan on dating anyone anytime soon, or ever. "Since you call yourself a nerd, Max is the smartest guy in class, he's sitting next to Kim, the biggest guy in class. They are really good friends, but Kim has a tendency to make stupid dares. Alix, the pink haired girl, is his most common target, but they get along well. Lila, the girl in front of you has a tendency to tell a lot of lies. Nathaniel, the redhead, is really artistic. Mylene and Ivan.." She points them out "are dating. Rose and Juleka, the pixie cut blond and the dark haired girl, are best friends and super nice, though Rose is much more outgoing than Juleka." Marinette continued. Maybe I should go talk to Max, sounds like we might get along. I wonder if he is into Magic the Gathering, like my friend Maria from my old home and I. Rose and Juleka sound nice, maybe I'll try to talk to them. Or maybe I'll just chicken out. "Thanks you two, hopefully I'll be seeing more of you both soon." "Bye! Good luck with your new classes!" They say as they return to their seats. Not long after, Max, the other nerd, approaches me. "So, you mentioned that you consider yourself a nerd? Tell me, what is 11 times 58?" he asks me. "Um, 638, why?" I answer, a bit confused. "No reason, just seeing if your previous allegation was true. There was about a 23.4% chance you were lying to make yourself appear better." Max replied. "Ok, cool calculations by the way. Could you teach me to do that?" I respond. So this guy can do insanely precise calculations in his head? Cool. "I suppose I could." he replies. "Hey, by the way, do you play Magic the Gathering? I used to play it with my friend Maria, but I had to move away. I haven't had an opponent for weeks." I ask. "I do play actually. I use a combination of green and black mana, what do you use?" He answers. " I tend towards blue, green, and white mana in some combination. We should battle sometime." I respond. "We should. See you around." Max says as he returns to his seat. At this time, the bell rings, signalling the end of class. I start to go to my next class, when suddenly, there's this loud scream coming from outside. I look out the window and see… A monster of some sort? "CHLOE!" It shouts. I start running for somewhere safe, wondering just what on earth is going on right now?
