The School

Tyler was wondering why he was sent to this school. He didn't even know the name. But he didn't have a choice. He usually did have some say. He decides to enter the building.

A tall young man asks clearly "Are you Tyler?"

Tyler begins to get nervous and said "Err…well…"

The young man gritted his teeth and said "I demand an answer! Are you or are you not Mister Tyler?"

Tyler could only nod as a strong teenager only a year older than him stood aside the young man.

The young man said "I am William, a sixth year perfect. Refer to me as Mister William. I see that you are wearing red. This should be useful. Come, we must go forth to the main office."

Tyler followed William through the hallways to the main office. On the way, he saw 2 girls wearing chestnut zip up jackets and white turtlenecks look at him and whisper quietly among themselves.

William opened Tyler's clenched palm and gently placed a slip of paper in it.

William explained "This is your timetable. It will show what lessons you have and on what day and at what time. Here is your room key. You'll be staying in 291B. You're in Jocasta so your form is J92. Your form uniforms should be in the closet. Have a good day."

Tyler hid the key and timetable in his pockets as he jogged up the stairs, thinking "291B… 291B… 291B… ah, here it is!"

Tyler took out his room key and quickly opened the door. He looked both ways before closing it. The room seemed to be a bit small for its size. He saw that there was a bed with plain bed sheets and covers.

He sighed and opened the closet. There were four articles of clothing. He checked his timetable and saw that he had Prep. He decided to put on his primary uniform. He changed out of his red tracksuit and put on a red blazer and white dress shirt with long red trousers.

He jogged downstairs to the dining hall. He saw three teenagers his age sitting there at a table. He decided to sit with them after he ordered his food.

He soon learned their names: Duncan, Courtney and Bridgette. He tries to eat the food only to spit it out a minute later.

Tyler said "What is this stuff? It tastes like impaled skunk mixed with cat vomit and smells like rotting, dead fish!"

Duncan laughed and said "Yeah, that's what I said."

Courtney pointed to William walking around and said "Be careful. You have- no must eat the school dinner."

Tyler shrugged and asked "Why?"

Courtney pointed to William and another boy then said "That's why."

William shouted "So Mister Golden, why do you happen to have a Feldino bean cake hidden in the bottom of your blazer pocket?"

Mister Golden blushed deeply and said "Umm… well, you see, sir…."


Cliffhanger! Yes!
