How Megan Saw It. Through the eyes, of a MAHS girl. DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own this. I do own Megan, and a few other minor characters that are of no importance! Enjoy!

Chapter 2, The Day that Changed Everything.

When the big canary yellow bus pulled up to Mica Area High School, the students filed off, sleep still strung in there eyes. The students split off into their own groups. Heads turned, names were shouted, and the rumors had already started. Megan was just starting tenth grade. A strange feeling swept through her. A feeling that this year was going to be different. A feeling that she couldn't get rid of. It was like bad song that was stuck in your head. She tried to shake it off, and walked towards the welcoming building.

As she stepped into her home room, she took an empty seat, and stared off into space. She couldn't wait until Saturday, when the Loyal Order of the Stone Bone School took place with Archie. She was caught up in her day- dream, when a soft, sing-song, voice filled the air around her.

"When I call your name, please raise your hand, and call out 'here!' so I can put a name to a face" said the teacher, and she started rattling off names. Most of the names, Megan had heard before. But then there was the most unusual name Megan had ever heard, " Stargirl Caraway?" 'Stargirl?' Megan thought, 'what kind of name is Stargirl?'

"Here!" called a girl who, truthfully, lived up to her name. She had made a small home out of her desk, with a flower and curtains. She wore a long, flowing pioneer dress, that looked like it was from a western movie.

Megan was shocked at the appearance of this girl. 'She won't survive long,' thought Megan, 'soon, she will snap into one of us. Same clothes, same voice, same interests. Buh bye miss. Different girl!' she knew that this was not a very nice think to be thinking, but she also knew that it was true. VERY true.

After role call, Stargirl raised her hand.

"Um, excuse me? I was wondering.Would anyone like a cookie? My mother made them. They are very good." A swarm of students were soon collecting around her little home. Megan slowly rose from her hard, plastic chair, and walked over to the swarm of students. She took a cookie, and looked at it. It was a little school. The kind that you draw when you are in the third grade. With the bell. Megan looked at it, and bit right into it. It was quite good.like the store bought sugar cookies. She shrugged, and consumed the rest of it.

*****

As Megan stepped out into the hall, there was only one thing that you could hear. But it was only in whispers, like no one wanted to be heard, and yet everyone was.

"Did you see her?"

"See who?"

"HA! You'll know!"

"Stargirl? What kind of name is that?"

"That's it! Stargirl Caraway! She said it in home room!"

Whispers were shooting from person to person, like sparks in the wintertime. Megan's eyes scanned the crowd, looking for her friends. When she located them, she noticed that they were all talking to someone.but she couldn't tell who. She made her way towards them, and said her hi's. Them her attention was switched to the girl they were talking to. Megans jaw dropped. It was Stargirl. She had a worried look upon her face. They had been warning her. Warning her to stay away from Hillari Kimball, and the rest of the cheerleaders. Warning her to keep a safe distance from the jocks, and the Hot Seat people. Stargirl looked like she wouldn't care, but she was still worried.

Worried enough to keep her distance.for a while.
