Welcome to the planet… Welcome to existence… Everyone's here… "Arrg why must school start so early?" Jodi mumbled as she swatted at her alarm clock eventually knocking it off the dresser. Jodi sat up in here bed trying to remember exactly were she was again. "Oh yea I'm at that dern prep school. JOY!"

"Good morning sleepy head!" Brenda said as she walked out of the bathroom decked out in her preppy wardrobe. "I thought you would never get up! I'm Brenda by the way."

Jodi gave a barely audible "Hi" as she got up and grabbed her shower stuff and headed for the bathroom.

"Someone's not a morning person." Brenda mumbled to herself.

"I HEARD THAT!" Jodi shouted from the bathroom.

As Jodi took a quick shower she thought about what today would hold for her. "Hmm… I wonder if there are any cute guys her... doubt it?" Jodi walked out of the bathroom in a towel and noticed Brenda not there anymore. "Must have gone to breakfast." Jodi turned on her Fall Out Boy c.d. and started singing along with the words 'Am I more than you bargained for yet? I've been dieing to tell you anything you want to hear…' while she changed into some regular old jeans with a rip in them on the right knee and a red t-shirt that just said "FREAK" in black letters. She went over to the mirror and brushed her hair wondering what to do with it. "Hmm… maybe I should just leave it down. Yea I will just leave it down." Jodi walked out of her dorm and headed down to the cafeteria.

When she entered she saw many different types of kids. "There are the jocks, cheerleaders, nerds, geeks, and the 'normal' kids. Great I wonder were I fit on with all of them." Jodi grabbed herself an apple and walked by a table with a bunch of guys and two girls. "Great more jocks. I wonder where the volleyball team is."

Ducks P.O.V.

"I wonder who that is?" Charlie said just above a whisper.

"She looks like a loner type person to me." Guy added.

"I wonder if she plays any sports?" Connie said.

"She looks really familiar to me but I just can't seem to place it…" Julie said more to herself than the others.

"Maybe you knew her in a past life?" Kenny whispered.

All the while one thought was running in a certain male Duck's mind, "I have to meet her!"

Jodi's P.O.V.

She walked to her first class just in time. It was the only classroom left after she had already opened almost all of the classes except that one. She refused to ask for help like all of these mindless girls do. She refused to seem helpless. Jodi walked into the classroom trying not to be noticed. "Good it worked."

"Now students this is a new year so we will go around the room and please state your name. We will start on this side of the room." Mrs. Cordes stated.

It had almost gone all the way around the room when it got to Jodi. "Hi I'm Jodi." "Short, sweet, and to the point. Good! At least you didn't have to give a full on introduction."

Jodi made it through all her morning classes. They seemed easy enough. The teachers were nice. Jodi decided to eat outside since she had yet to meet a single person. She found a tree and ate her sandwich alone listening to her portable c.d. player. "You only hold me up like this, because you don't know who I really am…" Jodi sang along in her head as the song played. Suddenly she noticed someone sit down next to her. She looked up and saw a handsome boy with chin length black hair. She took her headphones off her ears and said, "Hello."

"Hi." The mysterious boy said.

"I'm Jodi and it seems to me I don't know you, so…."

"Oh, I'm Fulton. You looked lonely and my friends where bugging me so I thought why not come and meet a new face."

"Well it is nice to meet someone, Fulton."

"So Jodi, are you on a scholarship or what?"

"I am playing volleyball here. How about you?"

"I am on a hockey scholarship. Do you play?"

"Do I play? Hell yes I play. Well, I used to. It is a long story. I haven't played in forever though. I wonder if I still know how to skate?" She asked the last statement more to herself than to Fulton.

"Well our first hockey practice is today, you should stop by. I could introduce you to the team and then maybe we could eat in the caf after practice."

"Ok, but I have to come after volleyball, that last until 4:30. But after that I will be there."

"Great." Just then the bell rang.

"Well I'll see you later, Fulton."

"Not if I see you first Jodi."

At the end of the day Jodi walked back to her room to retrieve her volleyball gear and get ready for her first practice as an Eden Hall Warrior volleyball player. "I bet they are all good. They will probably show me up." When Jodi was finally changed she started having second thoughts about playing here and joining a new team. She just couldn't bring herself to move a muscle. "Snap out of it Jodi. You can do this. Just go out there and show them what you got." Finally after a little self-encouragement Jodi walked out of the locker room and into the gym. She saw a bunch of girls all standing around talking. She decided to join them. Turns out Jodi was the tallest on her team. The practice was good; all the girls seemed like great players.

Jodi then remembered Fulton, and made a mad dash for the hockey rink.
