Chapter 1. The First Day
Hi. My name is Lily. I'm 13 years old and well, this is the story of me and my little brother Nate who is currently 10 years old. The story of how me and my brother know the Dino power rangers.
It all started when...
"Nate, wait up". My little brother was running away from Reefside middle school, where our foster dad dropped us off a minute ago. The High school is around the corner and well... Doug, our foster dad, was a little lazy to drive me there directly. I was starting the 9th grade and Nate was starting the 6th grade. He suddenly stopped...
"Why do we have to start school now?"
I don't want answer. Truthfully I'm wondering the same thing. We both have never gone to "school" before. We have always been homeschooled by our parents. They are both archeologists who travel the world to find dinosaur bones and remains. We used to travel with them but they decided that we deserved a normal childhood. Not one that included taking apart electronics and fixing anything that is controlled with a button. So my dad told us the wonderful news when Doug came to pick me and my brother up from the airport at Reefside. Where we watched our parents leave to an exotic place.
"We just have to enjoy it."
"With Doug?"
We found out right after our parents left that Doug was not the man we first met. He says that we are "good for nothing" and other stuff that I shouldn't mention. He told us that we are on our own and we can't ask for anything. As long as we are out of his hair, we're good.
"Yes even with Doug. Now don't worry about it. Let's walk back to school so I can register you."
Registration took a lot longer than expected. The lady at the front desk didn't believe me when I told her that my brother was starting the 6th grade. I gave her the paper with all the information and test scores. She finally gave him a schedule and told Nate where to go and with one last hug he was off.
I checked my watch and realize how late I am...
8:30... Shoot! I'm 15 minutes late! I started running to my first day of school ever.
I know… A slow start but I wanted to establish Lily and Nate before I introduced the other protagonists. Next chapter, L and N meet Tommy!
