The next day was Monday and it was going to be Terri's first day going to Perry Hall Middle. She wanted to make a god first impression on everybody, so she took out some magazines that she found in the corner of her room in her nightstand.

Her room was completely bare and white. She promised herself that after school she would re-furnish her room and make it bigger.

She looked through the first magazine until she found an outfit that she liked. It was a pink shirt with a black skirt and knee-high boots. "Nah."

She kept looking and saw another outfit she liked. It had a green shirt and blue jeans. "Hmmm… I like it… but not for the first day at a new school."

She kept looking until she found a black shirt overtop of a light pink one. It was tight, but not too tight. The pants were blue jeans that were kind of loose on her. "This is what I'm wearing." She then popped on 3 black bracelets, a butterfly necklace and matching earrings, a thick golden ring, and some dark eyeliner and she was good to go.

She walked downstairs and saw her dad in what he would wear back at home. "Dad… we're not underground anymore! You can't walk around like that." She stomped her foot and Jareth realized that she was very ticked off at him.

"Is this better?" He said changing himself from the white poets shirt, tight black breeches, knee high boots, and gloves into a loose black sweater and blue jeans.

"Much." She said grabbing a peach off the table.

"Where are you going?" He asked confused.

"To school. I have to go to a regular school now dad." She said grabbing her book bag from beside the couch.

"That's rite. Well have fun and if you need anything at all… use your magic. I can re-order time later."

"Okay. Bye daddy." She said kissing him on the cheek and running out the door.

When she got outside, she saw Toby talking to some man wearing something that looked like a jet-pack that a tube coming out from it. He had many cans of bug spray such as wasp and mosquito killer, bug be gone, freeze-away, stainless steel magic, and Pam fastened on a belt around his waist. Terri just sat and watched what they were doing.

"Okay now Toby. This is the rite way to kill a spider. You whack it with a newspaper," he smacked whatever was on the floor, "and suck the disembodied parts into your vacume."

"I'll remember that Jim." Toby said picking up his book-bag.

"Yeah, I'll remember it to when I need someone to kill a spider for me." Terri said from her post, leaning against the wall outside her door. Toby looked over surprised and she laughed.

"Yeah, Toby here is going to be one heck of an exterminator on day." Jim said smacking him on the back.

"Thank you Jim, but I have to go to school now."

"School? Who needs it? I dropped out in the second grade and I'm fine." Sun-dancer said from his doorway. He was, as always, smoking something. Terri just stood there staring.

"Well we have to go now! Bye guys! Come on Terri." Toby said taking her hand and pulling her past Sun-dancer.

They passed Mark in the stairway putting on some lip gloss but couldn't stop to talk or they would be late.

They ran out of the complex to see Tim and Tom talking about something. They noticed that Terri and Toby were in a rush and Tim knew that if they didn't hurry they would be late.

"Hey, you guys want a ride to school?" Tim asked them, being the nice guy he is.

"Oh that would be great. We're going to be late if we don't hurry."

"Get in!" Tim said and Toby made his way to the car, jumping over a large puddle. Tom noticed the puddle and as Terri was about to hop over it, he picked her up.

"Allow me." He said carrying her over to the car.

The ride to school was nothing but law talk from Tim talking on his cell phone.

When they got to school, Tim yelled to them, "Toby! You watch out for her! We guys have to protect the girls from Distinctive Manor."

"Will do Tim! Thank you for the ride."

"Don't mention it!" Tim then rolled up the window and drove off.

"Sorry, the guys at the place are protective of girls. When I was growing up I remember whenever Sarah would have a date, they would play a game of 20 questions before he ever got to the door."

"It's okay. I'm used to it."

"Okay. Come on I'll take you to the office to get you your schedule and take you to your first class." They went to the office and got Terri's schedule for her. She read down her schedule.

"Science- room 210, 8:30-9:20

Social Studies- room 256 9:20-10:10

Math- room 212- 10:10-11:00

Reading- room 218- 11:00-11:50

Lunch- cafeteria- 11:50-12:40

English- room 260- 12:40- 1:30

Gym/Art/Free Period- Gym/room 222/…- 1:30-2:20"

"That's the same schedule I have!" Toby said a little too excited.

"Were in all the same classes?"

"Yeah!"

"This is going to be a lot of fun."

They still had about 15 minutes before first period, so Toby decided to introduce Terri to his friends and their girlfriends.

"Hey guys."

"Hey Toby!" Lance said coming up and pounding fists with Toby. "Who's the chick?"

"This is Terri. She just moved two doors down from me. Terri this is Lance, Josh and Aaron." Lance had blonde hair like Toby and about the same length and size as he was too, Josh had very short brown hair and was pretty tall, Aaron had long brown hair and brown eyes, and he was pretty tall as well.

"And these are the girls, Jenna, Kim, and Ally." Jenna had red hair and green eyes. Kim had straight blonde hair and hazel eyes. Ally had dirty blonde hair with platinum blonde highlights. All the girls were about Terri's size and were all wearing similar clothes, jewelry and make-up.

Toby, Aaron, Lance, and Josh all started talking about different things, as did the girls. They were anxious to get to know the newcomer. After talking for about 10 minutes, all the girls liked Terri. And Terri liked them. Terri showed them her schedule and had at least 3 classes with each of them.

Soon the bell rang and they all left to get to their first period. Toby took Terri to hers as well.

Sarah was still worried about the whole 'Jareth moving in thing' and was rushing around to get all of her stuff together for a model shoot. They really did work her to the bone during the fall season. They said that she was one out of 3 that looked like a model in sweaters and jeans and ponytails.

She had all of her stuff and was running to her car. She tried to start up her pretty little Porsche, but it wouldn't work. She tried about 5 more times before someone tapped on the window. It was Jareth. "What do you want?"

"Would you like me to drive you to work?"

"You have a car?"

"How else am I supposed to get around up here?" He looked at her and she looked confused. "How about a ride?"

"Sure."
