Donna was in the halls of Berry High when she saw that everyone has glowing red eyes. They started coming towards, "Come to me Donna" Caleb said in a creepy tone.
"Come on Donna," Emma said in a creepy tone.
"Do you wanna play Donna?" Michael asked in a creepy tone.
"This is getting weird," Donna whispered
Everyone walked up to her while asking in a monotone to play with a black creature with red eye came out of nowhere and punched her.
Suddenly, Donna wakes up in her room, alive and well, "I am Groot(Are you alright Donna?)" he asked.
"Not really" Donna answered, "First Ali disappears and now a crazy nightmare about some creature named, "Mr. Red"."
Donna changes into her regular clothes, grabs breakfast, and takes off. On her way out, she saw a friendly man with blonde hair and a beard, "Heya neighbor." he greeted.
"Your Cid right?" Donna asked.
"Yeah," Cid answered, "I live down the street and I'm taking my girl Hilda for a walkie."
A blur of black and white fur crashes out of the bushes, looking around excitedly. She bounds over to Donna and her tail waving like a flag, "Hi girl!" Donna greeted, "Aren't you a cutie?"
Hilda flops on her back, wriggling happily as she rubs her belly, "I am Groot(I wanna ride her.)" Groot whispered.
"Groot, calm down," Donna whispered.
Cid found a stone on the ground and wondered if it was Donna's. She looked at it and saw a strange stone on it. It was heavy in her hand. She moves her thumb along the crack that runs through the center of the rune. Cid thought it was a paperweight or something. Brushing away some of the dirt from the stone, she froze as a familiar smell wafts into her nose . . . cold dart and a hint of blood.
She stops herself, glancing nervously at Cid. He whistles and Hilda follows him. Once they're out of the picture, Donna gave the stone to Groot and told him to hold onto it.
A few minutes later, she hears a car approaching behind. Stepping to the side, she glances up, locking eyes with a driver of a black vintage Camaro. About a few inches away, it stopped. In it was a blonde cute boy, he opens the window, "Can I help you?" Donna asked.
"Not really" the guy answered, "Hey your one of the cheerleaders at Berry High. Good homecoming cheer."
Donna steps to the side, the car pulls away and rides off. Shrugging, she continues her walk to school where she meets up with Emma, Caleb, Payton, Michael, Aiden, and Sydney. As she was passing by, she bumps into an African American goth girl, she was Michael's friend, "Ava" "Yo Av," Michael greeted, "This is my new babe, "Donna"
Donna helped Ava pick up her things and she saw a Dusk book. "Did you hear that Baylor Lautner got pardoned?" asked Donna,
"Yeah," Ava answered as she laughed, "After his whole crazy man-baby clown charade. It was hysterical."
Suddenly, a heavy-set girl looking nervous walks by with books in her arms. "Hi there Lily." Aiden greeted, "She's my bandmate."
"Your the girl who plays the flute in the school band," Donna recalled,
"That's me." Lily answered nervously, "There's um, something I wanted to talk to you about Ava."
"Spill it," Ava replied.
"I got some really weird texts last night. Did you?" Lily asked.
Donna replied that she has been having dreams of a monster. Lily trails off, looking over her shoulder. Donna turns to see a pretty girl chatting with Maria, Mia, an Asian girl, and another cute cheerleader. "OMG," she said, "I've been ghosting this guy for like, 2 weeks and he just asked me out for coffee again."
"Oh boy," Ava groaned "Just when you think high school might not be the sucking chest wound you remember."
"Hi, Britney." Donna said, "Remember me?"
"Yeah," Britney answered, "Your the girl who stole Mia's attention."
The group stops in their tracks and gave an appraising look, except for the cute cheerleader, "Great sweater Lily" Britney complimented sarcastically, "I didn't know Baby Barn had a quadruple XL section."
"I just wanna say hello." Lily shyly greeted.
"And I want a red Ferrari for my Bday, but I'll settle for not listening to you whiny twerps." Britney said, "You're looking at 2 more members of the No Solo Society."
"No Solo Society?" Lily asked,
"They're people who hold a grudge against me." Donna explained, "Lily, just act like Britney isn't there."
Lily gave a big smile. "Lil," Emma said, "I'm super jealous of your awesome sweater. That fox is freakin' adorable."
"Excuse me," Britney growled, "but nobody asked you for one Hawking?"
They continue to ignore her, focusing on the conversation with Lily. Donna told her that she might take Lily shopping at the local thrift store sometime and she would like it, Lily needed to save some money for her Halloween costume.
"Oh yeah? Well" Mia growled, "Shut up!"
"SSSSSSHHHHHH" Ava whispered, "Witty comebacks aren't your strong suit, Track and Field Barbie."
"Cross Country!" Mia shouted.
Ava gives Mia a long ponderous look, then arches up to a pluck of her golden hair. She told her that she's been working on this new curse she found where if she feels a burning sensation in her eyes, that's normal. Waggling her fingers, Ava stalks away down the hallway, "Later guys." Ava waved.
"See ya." Donna shouted."
"EWWWWWWWWW!" the Asian girl growled, "Mia! What's going to happen to your eyes?"
"No worries Jocelyn," Mia replied, "That weirdo just reads too many Dusk books. With any luck, she'll flunk out."
Donna and Emma looked at each other and shook their heads. "You better leave them alone Mia," Donna shouted.
"Zip it Solo!" Mia replied,
"What are you going to do," Donna asked, "Stuff me in my locker and make me miss assembly in the gym?"
Maria, Mia, Jocelyn, and Britney looked at each other and did what she said. Everyone was horrified by what they did, "See ya around Solo." Maria said and they walked off laughing.
The cute cheerleader looked worried. Everyone helped Donna out of her locker when the cute cheerleader came in and saved her neck, "Thanks" Donna said.
"No prob," the cute cheerleader replied, "I'm Stacy."
"I know," Donna replied, "Your mom's the mayor."
"That's right." Stacy replied, "Since Zoe and Caleb broke up, maybe I can swing.
Later they arrived with the other cheerleaders, "Your late." Stephanie said.
"I know," Donna replied, "No Solo Society trouble."
Meanwhile, Michael, Aiden, and Caleb met a grungy kid, "He was Ezra's friend, "Noah" "Hey dudes." Noah greeted.
"How have you been doing Nohs?" Aiden asked.
"So what's been up with you?" Caleb asked.
"Skateboarding and baking," Noah answered,
On stage, a handsome guy nerd with tan skin and glasses comes up, he was student body president, "Lucas Thomas" "Hello Berry High" he shouted as the students roar in response.
The bleachers rumble and shake as the crowd pounds their feet on the wood. "When did Lucas get so popular?" asked Caleb.
"Shortly after hitting 6 feet and discovering hair gel, shortly before getting elected student body president," Noah explained.
Lucas waves to the cheering crowd flashing a smile. "I know everyone's a little salty since it has been 8 weeks since we all started school." Lucas announced, "But trust me, this is going to be a year you'll never forget and on that note, let's kick it off with the cheerleaders. Tigers, growl out your names."
"Mia" she shouted.
"Britney" she shouted.
"Sydney" she shouted.
"Payton" she shouted.
"Donna" she shouted.
"Emma" she shouted.
"Stephanie" she shouted.
"Joe" shouted the boy cheerleader.
"Kyle" shouted the fish-eyed boy cheerleader.
One by one, the cheerleaders tumble across the gym. Stacy draws thunderous cheers as she pulls off an effortless round off into a backflip, while Donna did the same thing.
"Go, team!" Noah shouted.
Stacy suddenly did a round-off and slip. She was okay though, "I must've tripped." Stacy worriedly said, "I'm a klutz
"Seriously," Donna asked"If that's what a klutz looks like, then sign me up for klutz lessons.
"Thanks, Donna," Stacy replied, "You're a sweetheart.
"I try," Donna replied.
"Ha Ha!" shouted Jocelyn, "Did you see that Cody?" She was like WHAM! AAAAAAAAHHHHH!"
A boy with light brown hair and a plaid red hoodie giggled at her, "Please tell me the school news nerd got that on camera." he smiled.
Blushing, Stacy and Donna rejoin the squad. Stephanie rolls forward with a smile. "Check this out!" she shouted.
She rolled around, did some cheering, and Donna did another roundoff with a little help from Stephanie. Everyone but Cody, Britney, and Maria cheered. Lucas grins from the podium as the cheerleaders return to their seats.
"Now without further ado," Lucas announced "Principal Hastings."
Principal Hasting came up onstage, "Thank you Lucas." she said, "As your all aware. Our very own Alison DiLaurentis has disappeared and recently there have been some strange signing that says, "Redfield" all over town and in a few seconds, they disappear in a snap.
Suddenly the lights flicker. Principal Hasting's voice calls out over the speakers, drowning out the nervous chatter. "Remain calm dearies," Principal Hasting announced, "We don't want anyone to get hurt."
A burst of static cuts her off and the music stutters. With a loud bang, the gym doors are blown open by a frigid gust of wind. The lights flicker back on and Caleb, Aiden, and Michael nearly jump out of their seats as Noah suddenly grabs their hands. "Do you hear that?" he asked.
"Hear what?" Michael asked.
"SSSSSSSSHHHHHHH!" Noah replied as he covered Michael's mouth.
"Everyone, plays, together." said a voice.
Meanwhile, Donna hears something that snatches her breath from her body and leaves her cold. She looks around, picking out faces of the new friends she encountered. She can sense it in the force. Lucas Lily, Noah, Lily, and Ava were coping. She decided to invite them over to The Golden Griddle after school. She told Groot to send out letters to them.
