"Oh Ann, and please try not to get into any fights." Scott said to me as we got out of the car with the rest of our friends. None of them trusted me that I could go through school with out fighting.
"What ever Scotty. I won't fight unless it is life or death for someone."
"Good girl." Scott said. I just acted like I always did when someone did that. No I didn't kill them; I just punched him. "Ouch."
"Don't call me that."
"Ann your too defensive." Kitty said helping Jean pick up Scott.
"So what it's the way I got through my old school and I intend on keeping
my personality."
"What ever." She sighed. They dropped me off in the office in their attempt to get to class. I got my classes, all of them easy. I was a freshman. I'm
a year younger then the rest of my class. I guess age will be just a number. I went to my first class and Kurt was in it. Of course the teacher puts us together. Kurt was having trouble with finding the verbs so I helped him out and showed him a trick. I finished first out of the whole class. As I said English I is easy. My classes were:
English I
Spanish I
Algebra I
Cooking I
Lunch
Study Hall
Gym
Chem. I
American History
I passed all of them that semester back home. May I say being at a blue ribbon school was hard on the back. Four classes a day. That sounds great but when you break it down, 90 minuets in the class room with a ½ hour for lunch. Here lunch is a period. Reminds me of Crossroads.
Later that day I was on my way to Study Hall with Scott. We passed a fight in the hall.
"That's Todd getting beaten up. The guys doing it, that's the football team. Ann just do not mess with them!"
"Hold my bag." I said handing him my blue East Pack Back Pack. I ran in front of Duncan and blocked his punch.
"Who are you?" The oaf said.
"Ann Startz, and your name is what? Mr. Big ass hole that will beat up the people that are quote 'un-cool?'" I said. I was standing up to the star football player. By the looks of the crowd, no one has done that yet.
"Duncan. Do you know what you just did?"
"I have a feeling your going to tell me any way."
"You messed with the wrong people." A good amount of the football team was behind him.
"What are you going to do about it?"
"No one can mock us. We are the best foot ball team in the country." One of them said.
"My old school beat you for the past ten years running. I was at the last game. It was home coming. I lost the crown to a preppy cheerleader. I remember it well. The score was 6 Bayview 36 Vikings."
"So your from West Brunswick?"
"Yeah and what are you going to do about it?" I could see Scott's face. He was about to burst. "Meet me on the base ball field after school. There we'll decide who is the better team." After they left I turned to Todd and helped him up. "You okay?"
"You didn't have to help me. I could handle it myself."
"It looked like you were getting the crap beaten out of you."
"I didn't need your help."
"Listen," I was now holding him up to the lockers "If you can't even take a bunch of football players on, how are you going to take on the X men?" I said while dropping him. I walked back to Scott. "Okay lets go."
"Ann how did you know he's one of the Brother hood?"
"I just did. He was thinking that he would never be better then Lance and win the respect of his team. For some reason he hates us. Not because were good and their bad but something else. I couldn't see it in his eyes. But there has to be something." We walked into the classroom for Study hall. I told the teacher I was new. She put me between Duncan and this guy Lance with Scott, Jean and Evan behind me. I just started to write to my old friends. I told them that it's only my first day here and I have a show down. Told them that in the next letter I would say who won. It was going to be awesome.
I just wish Nina, Susan, Cathy, Ronnie and Jeff were here to cheer me on. I would have to do with out them. I had to throw something at Evan to keep him awake. He got pissed when I had Jean go into his mind. But it was funny.
