Tragedy. A horrible event that causes someone misery. We confuse this with the word drama, which is actually defined as a theatrical performance that contain either or both comedy and tragedy. But here in high school, we define drama as our lives.

Between who dumped who. And who kissed who. And whom cheated or wronged whom. Well, that's all we seem to care about. In my small town of Granum, Alberta (which is in Canada), your business gets spread around like the wild fire that started on Mr. Swan's farm right before the summer started. It was caused by a drought, some boredom, and lack of inspiration. The fire grew and the news got around fast. Time will only tell what has been damaged. If only we had known sooner, we may have been able to stop it.

Who's this we? Well that would be me and the big news himself, Demetri Volturi. But I'll get to him later. This story starts on the day that Mr. Swan's farm went up into flames...
