---Narrator's POV---

The principal walked into the classroom with an unfamiliar face as the teacher was saying, "So E equals MC-" She stopped short, then said "Well, hello Mr. Delmas!"

"Sorry to interrupt," He said, "but we have a new student that will be boarding with us." A girl with brown eyes and hair stepped forward with a suitcase and backpack. Mr. Delmas said, "Go on, introduce yourself."

She looked up and said, "My name is Katie Shay and I moved here from Nice. My father works in a hotel here."

The anonymous teacher said, "Yes, well, why don't you get yourself settled, hm? Lunch is at noontime."

Mr. Delmas nodded and said, "Great! Now, how about one of you show her where her room is?"

A bunch of people raised their hands and shouted, "Oh! Me! Pick me, sir!"

"Ummm, let's see... how about you, Sissi?" He said, pointing to a girl in pink. "Her room is number 213"

"Well, sure, daddy!" She responded. Sissi got up as walked out into the hall. "Follow me, Katie!"

---Katie's POV---

Walking down the hallway in another building, we stopped in front of a door that had "213" engraved on it. "Well, here we are!" Sissi said to me. "You better just put your stuff down on your bed. Lunch is pretty soon."

I glanced at my watch. It was 11:14. "But lunch is at twelve..."

"Oh, that teacher always makes mistakes about time," she said, "It's really at 11:30, and if you get there quick, you'll get all the good stuff!"

"Alright," I said. "Thank you, Sissi!"

She smiled and said, "Hey, don't mention it."


Well, it's 11:30. The lunch ladies are still preparing food.

"Um..." I said shyly. "Excuse me?"

A lunch lady with a mole on her upper lip turned around and scolded me. "What are you doing here?! Lunch isn't for another half-hour!"

I gazed at my feet and whispered, "Sorry..." I turned and walked out the door, looking back at it as it closed. "Why would Sissi say that?" I thought as I ran back to room 213. As I staggered up the stairs to her door, I heard movement in there. I didn't like the sound of it, but I just listened quietly. "Alright," said a familiar voice. "Now what's in her backpack?" Another voice said, "Textbooks, notebooks... Hello, what's this?"

"Oh no!" I thought. "What do they have? Who are they?"

"That's just a geeky PDA, Herb," came the first voice. "Get a life!" There was more fumbling around. I heard one of them say, "What's with her fashion sense? Where's the pink?" I couldn't take it anymore. These people were ransacking my room! I burst into the room to find...

...none other than Sissi and an acne-ridden kid, Herb. "What the hell are you doing here?!" I yelled.

"Uhh, this isn't what it looks like!" Sissi said defendingly.

"Y-yeah," Herb stuttered.

"Oh, this is exactly what it looks like! NOW GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" I screamed.

"Fine, fine! We're going!" Herb said.

I stepped aside to let them pass, but stopped Herb. "Listen here, Zit-boy," I said threateningly. "If I ever find out you or Sissi go throuogh another room..." I
raised a fist at him. "You'll find out what your stomach looks like. Get it?"

He gulped in fear, saying, "Got it."

"Good." Before I shoved him away, I slipped my hand into his backpack pocket and pulled out the PDA. As they stumbled down the stairs, I closed my door, flipped on the lights, and surveyed my room. The suitcase was wide-open and messy, my backpack was on the floor, and there was a sack sitting next to the bed filled with clothes. I sighed and began to pick things up and put them away in the closet and on the desk.


Okay that's a little better...

Here's a preview of the next chapter~

It's like it had eyes. It had been searching for me when I ran out of that room.

My body was in agony and I felt like throwing up. Just when I thought I was about to snap in two, the purple thing lifted off of me and flew down the hall, away from me. My heart was racing and I felt dizzy when I tried to get up. I put my hand to my head and crouched down. I was still shaking all over.

"What happened?" I said aloud. I slowed my breathing to try to calm down. Just talking hurt and I think I was about to faint. I curled into a ball and that's when I heard it.

A scream.

Then footsteps.

Then a low growl.
