Welcome back, everyone. Enjoy and review.

8:21 AM

Uncertain of what to do, Basil simply went back home. Once back home, he was even more at a loss of what to do. Read? Watch a film? Play a game? What was he to do? What an excellent question.

Sitting in his living room, he thought of what he knew. In the past couple of days, that Lee Ping guy had been expelled, the principal Barrage had gone missing and been replaced by the superintendent Blompkins, Lee Ping's expulsion had been lifted and now Blompkins was making clogs mandatory footwear.

What was going on? None of this made any sense!

Standing up, Basil looked around his living room. He looked at various pictures, various works of art, all of them so abstract and wondering if the reason nothing was making sense was because either he or the world had gone mad.

What was it to be sane? What was it to be insane? Basil wasn't sure and he knew not what was going on. Was any of this real? Was he real? Was he just a dream someone was having? He felt so disconnected from everything that was going on.

Could he have possibly imagined what was really going on? It was unlikely. Could he have guessed there was a scheme to brainwash the students and that Lee Ping had been framed because he could not be brainwashed?

When would things be back to normal? How was Basil to know? His school's mascot was a creature called a tazelwurm, normal was pretty much off the table the day he started high school, the day everyone who went to A. Nigma High started going to high school.
