Chapter 2: Homeroom, English, and Chemistry
~~~~~~~~~~Homeroom room 146.9~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When we entered homeroom, we were greeted with many pairs of eyes on us. Our teacher's name is Ms. Goody. She seemed nice. She was short with short blonde hair and wearing a pink dress with floral designs on it. She greeted us with handshakes. She told us to sit down in any open seats. We sat in the back where 3 open chairs were. All eyes were following us while we were walking back. I could see that Fang was mapping out escape routes and Iggy look scared. I nudged his shoulder and he looked at me. It look like he was scared because this was a bigger school than the one we went to with Anne. I wonder how everyone else is doing.
We have our story planned out if any on asked us. We were all adopted by Dr. Martinez besides me, I was living with my dad. My name would be Alexandra Martinez, Alex for short. Fang's name is Nick (NOT Fnick). Iggy's name is Jeff. Nudge's name is Monique( Moe for short). Gazzy's name is Robert (we can spell it now [Bob for short]). And Angel's name is Ariel. After 6 minutes in HR (the longest 6 minutes EVER) we went to English.

Max POV
In English, again we were greeted with all eyes on us. Our teacher's name is Ms. Coffey. She looked nice but with the bell rang, a kid walked in as it was ringing and she yelled at him….LOUD. "I can see we have 3 new students with us today," she said staring right at us. "Can you tell us your name and 2 facts about yourself." she pointed at me first. I stood where my seat is, opened my mouth, then she cleared her throat and pointed to the front of the room. I went up to the front and talked. "My name is M-Alexandra Martinez. But call me Alex. I have a little sister in 7th grade, Ella Martinez, and have 4 adopted siblings." Ms. Coffey wrote it down and it was Fang's turn. "My name is Nick Martinez. I'm adopted and have 6 adopted siblings." Short, simple and to the point. That's Fang. Iggy slowly went up. He then said, "My name is Jeff Martinez. I'm adopted with 6 siblings and I am also blind. I use M-Alex and F-Nick to help me around new places." Fang and I had to hold in our laughter from the return of Fnick and he start of M-Alex. Ms. Coffey wrote that down along with Fang's. Weird.
Fang POV
Oh no, it's the return of Fnick and the start of Malex. I can now annoy Max about that. I saw Max trying to hold in her laughter and being successful. I'm doing the same. Iggy is also holding in his very well for everyone looking at him and not noticing.
Iggy POV
I had to bite my lip to make sure I won't start laughing. I bet Fang and Max are too.
Angel POV
Reading Max, Fang and Iggy's mind was a good idea because…. It's the return of Fnick! I can't wait for Nudge and Gazzy to find out. I also heard something about Fang and Max I don't think I should repeat from other students….

Max POV
English was weird.
"English was weird," all 3 of us said at the same time when we got out. Ha, that's funny. We looked at each other and started laughing, but not to loud. We are now off to chem. Iggy is happy about it because he "over heard" people saying that they have to make a stink bomb in class today. Fang and I are a little worried. When we got to class, we got the same greeting, all eyes on us. Joy. Please not the sarcasm there. Only a few people weren't looking because they were in other classes with us. The teacher's name is Mr. Desantis. Turns out, they misprinted our schedules, every other day we go to chem. and…. Dun, dun, dun, BIOLOGY! Guess what today is. If you guessed biology, your wrong. It's chem. Thank goodness. The funny thing about today, we were learning about birds. Well, actually, they were taking a pre-quiz about birds so we had to take them too. It was easy. This is some of the questions that were on it;
Q: Do birds have hollow or thick bones?
A) yes
B)no
Q: Do birds have extra lungs?
A)yes
B)no
Most of the questions were yes or no. We were the first ones finished. The teacher graded them and handed them back that day.
"These grades were horrible! You guys are lucky that these quizzes don't count. Only 3 people got 100%. And they are new students! I can't believe…." I zoned out the rest. But I saw Fang and Iggy smile about that we got 100s. Again, all eyes turned at us. I mostly saw envy in their eyes.
"What are you looking at?" I asked. They all look at me surprised and turned away. That was the first time I spoke in class all day. Besides "introducing" myself. I think the hardest part of the quiz was remembering to write Alexandra Martinez, not Max Ride. I think Iggy had more trouble reading it. But, good thing it was on while paper, so he could see the outlines of the words.
Fang POV
Name….. Fan- I had to erase my name and write Nick Martinez. After that, I finished the quiz before anyone else, well probably not before Max. She put her pen down, then 5 seconds later, I finished. I saw Iggy struggling a little because he can't see. Luckily, the paper was white.
Iggy POV
Ahhhhhhhhhh! I CAN'T READ THIS STUPID QUIZ! The teacher then handed out the quiz, and thank God, it was white. Even though I knew Max, Fang and I were going to get good grades because, well, ya know, 2% bird and all. Anyway, when Max and Fang finished, I had 2 questions left. They were easy. I turned and wrote my name on the line. Name: Jeff Martine- I stopped because I just realized I was writing in green ink. I then finished the -z. Wait, how did I know how to spell Martinez? I knew spelled it before. I didn't even think of it, I just wrote it and I knew I had spelled it right. I can't wait to test it out more to see if it is a new power.
