Chapter 1: Trouble at School

It has been sixteen years since Defiant and now Will and Matt have gotten married and have been so for eleven years. Everyone got married at practically the same time except for Irma who got married one year later then everyone else. Matt is now a cop and gets paid more for work thanks to his special ability. Ironically, Matt's boss is actually from Meridian. So everything worked out for him. Will doesn't bother to work for the reason that she has a daughter. Irma got married to the person she never thought she would ever like, Martin Tubbs. Irma works at a water park and Martin is a scientist. Taranee married Nigel. Taranee is the principle at a high school and Nigel is in a band with Eric. Cornelia got married to Caleb. Cornelia and Caleb live in Meridian and so Cornelia learned to fight with a sword and now they both work to protect Meridian. Hay Lin got married to Eric. Hay Lin works as a fashion designer.

Will woke up that morning and got Mist ready for school. "Come on Mist, it's time for school." Will said as she got some lunch money for her daughter. 'One, two, three, and four.' Will said to herself as she waited for her daughter to get there. "Come on Mist, go get in the car ok." Mist nodded and ran to the car. Matt came into the room and kissed Will goodbye. "Matt, remember tonight!" Will yelled to her husband.

"I know; I'm on it." Then Matt got into the car and sped off to work.

Will gave a small chuckle and then got to the car. They got to the school five minutes later and they waved by to each other. Mist walked into the school with a smile as usual both her and her mother knowing that it is a fake smile but hoping that the day goes well. Mist walked over to her friends Shea, Megan, and Kyle. The four friends just talked before the day of torture began for Mist. Then the bell rang and the four friends went off to there first classes.

Mist went to history first and as usual did very well. She actually does well in all her classes except for math. Now it's not because she is bad in math, she is actually very good at it but her rival Shelia always makes things hard for her. Lunch was never that fun either and for that reason but this term especially considering how Shelia is everywhere and her friends are in their classes. Anyway, back to her history class. She has a test today in every class and so she is happy to know that her worst subject is the first to go. "I hate those tests so much." Mist said to herself happy to be going to her next class.

"Economics, something easy for me." She hurried off to her next class with Kyle. She enjoyed Economics but not just because it's easy but because of a certain boy that goes to that class with her. "Hey Kyle, ready for the test today?"

"Yeah, of course I didn't study as usual." He said in a cocky way.

"Of course you didn't. You don't ever study for anything Kyle. You and your photographic memory." The two laughed as they went to class. Mist couldn't help but star at Kyle as he rushed through the test like it was nothing. She laughed to herself and smiled in his direction. She quickly turned her head when Kyle looked her way. 'I hope I wasn't blushing.' Mist said as she finished her test right before the bell rang. She hurried to turn in the test. When she got outside, she waited for Kyle like she does everyday. Kyle finally made it outside and stood next to Mist. "So Kyle, you think you could skip class to come to lunch with me today?" Kyle shook his head and they separated with a good luck from Kyle.

Mist walked into the cafeteria and didn't see Shelia anywhere. 'Maybe she is sick today.' Then a voice came from behind her that Mist knows all to well. 'All well.' She thought to herself. "What do you want Shelia? I really have no need to talk to you today or even see you today."

Shelia put her hand on her shoulder which was quickly brushed off. "You want some pudding Mist? I made it just for you."

"Well then; in that case, no way. For all I know it has dog crap in it or something like that. I don't trust you Shelia, so thanks but no thanks." Mist started to walk away when Shelia grabbed Mist and turned her around and stuffed the pudding in her face. Mist pushed her away and she dropped the pudding. "What is your deal, what did I ever do to you?"

"What, didn't your mother ever teach you manners Mist? You should be nicer." Shelia said mocking her.

"Yeah she did but she didn't teach me to be stupid." Mist started to walk away.

"Like your mother knows anything about being smart Mist. She got married at fifteen just so she could" But before she could finish her sentence, Mist cut in.

"At least my parents were married before they had me married unlike yours who had you before hand." Both girls stared each other down for what seemed like forever.

"Your mother isn't even worth anything Mist. She didn't even really want you. She just wanted to have you for the" Before she could finish, Mist punched her right in the face.

"I have had with you and your little comments Shelia. I tried to be nice to you when we were younger but you know what, I gave up trying to be friends with you." Mist still had her fist in the air while Shelia is on the ground.

"Mist Olsen, I can't believe you hit another student although I am not surprised at the same time seeing who it was you hit. Either way, both of you to the principles office." The teacher said shocked and at the same time proud of what she did.

"Why do I have to go? She is the one that punched me." Shelia said complaining.

"Because you are the cause of all of Mists problems; now move it missy." The teacher rubbed the bridge of his nose and walked off.

The two made it to the principles office and opened the door. "Mist? What are you doing here?" Then the principle looked beyond Mist and sighed. "Oh that's why. Ok what happened?"

"She hit me in the face." Shelia said smiling but acted angry.

"Why Mist, you are the good one here. You have never been in trouble before." The principle said worried about her.

"She just won't leave me alone, she keeps insulting my family. Ok I insulted hers today to which I feel bad about and I also feel bad that I hit her as well. Even though she does deserve it." Then Mist turned to Shelia. "I'm sorry Shelia, I should never of hit you or made fun of your family."

"Mist, you go back to your room." Mist then got up and walked away and out the door. "Shelia, you wait here and I am going to call Mists mother." She picked up the phone and dialed the number. A few seconds later and Will picked up the Phone. "Hello Mrs. Olsen."

"Taranee, oh no. What happened today?" Will asked worried.

"Your daughter finally snapped and hit Shelia." Taranee heard a sigh on the other side of the phone. "Will, I don't want you to punish mist or at least not to harshly. Just talk to her. By the way, could you come pick her up from school; I think she will be safer there. She needs a break from Shelia and school altogether." Taranee said trying to help Mist be at her best and not do something to drastic.

"It is my fault partly; I haven't told her yet and now it seems like a good time to. Thanks Taranee, bye."

They said their goodbyes and then Taranee turned to Shelia. "As for you young lady, if I ever see you here again because of some relation to you being mean in some way to Mist, you Will be suspended from school for two weeks. As for a punishment for right now, you can go and help clean the graffiti off of the walls outside."

"What, she hits me and I get punished for it." Shelia said angrily.

"Next time don't try to get her into trouble then Shelia. I know that that is why you do the things you do." Taranee told her.

"You just play favorites. She is your friend's daughters and you stand up for her." Shelia said angrily.

"I don't play favorites Shelia, she just doesn't do anything wrong and if she does do something wrong, you provoke it now leave. You can start cleaning the walls after school today and if I hear another word about this, then I will suspend you right now." Shelia left and Taranee sat back in her chair and rubbed the bridge of her nose.

Shelia stormed off out the door. "Mist will pay for everything she has done to me, I can promise that much." Then she walked back to her classroom.
