(The Next Day…)

Date: Tuesday 18th June 2013

Time: 8:15am

Margaret dropped off Carrie at school, kissing her goodbye till later, as Carrie made her way into school. Despite sleeping on the subjects from last night, Carrie was still very scared and nervous, about learning the truth of her true origin. Carrie was also worried about if anyone was going to question her, about her unnatural and unique abilities, especially now, after learning that was some kind of Krypton, but Carrie was most worried about still, was what David, Sue, & Tommy would think, if she ever questioned or found out for herself about Carrie being a alien krypton from another world…

As Carrie got through the main doors, she found Sue waiting for her…

"Hi Carrie." Sue said kindly to her crush, new best friend prom.

"Oh H-Hi Sue…" Carrie replied in her causal shy tone, as she & Sue walked down the hall, to their lockers, only to find them vandalised with the words: 'Carrie White Eat Shit!'

"I don't even need to guess whose idea that was…" Sue sighed in a growl.

"Oh look everyone, it's the stars of the 1 Girl 1 Cup sequel: 1 Girl 100 Tampons: Period!" Chris called out, pointing out to Carrie, causing everyone else to laugh out loud.

"Get lost Chris, you and your friends who make better stars in reboot of: Everybody Hates Chris!" Sue called back, causing some students to go 'Oooohhhh!' at an angry Chris and her friends.

"Say that again!" Chris growled sternly, as she stomped right up to Sue, only for Carrie to get in the way, trying to defend her.

"Leave us alone Chris, Is it even worth fighting? All you'll do is get yourself and your friends in trouble as you always do." Carrie said, trying to defuse the situation.

"Zip it Freak, No one said you could open your gob!" Chris hushed Carrie, only for Carrie to pull her locker door off its lock and hinges, as she slammed it into Chris's face, causing everyone to gasp, as Chris fell to the floor, while leaving Chris's face print in Carrie's locker door.

As Tina, Nicki & Lizzy and some of the other Mortimer Snerds tended to Chris, Carrie and Sue quickly went off to the library, as they had been excused from Gym Class by Miss Desjardin and Principal Morton due to the tampon incident with Chris yesterday…

(Later in the Library…)

Sue was amazed and shocked, she'd never seen Carrie ever react like that to any of the bullying from any of the Snerds before, but she'd never seen Carrie, or anyone she knew be able to rip a metal locker door open like that…

"Carrie…" Sue said in shock and amazement as she caught up with Carrie.

"I'm sorry Sue, you shouldn't have seen that, I shouldn't have done that…" Carrie replied in a quick pacing tone.

"Carrie, Carrie, calm down, it's ok." Sue said, as she quickly pulled Carrie behind a full book shelf, to not draw any other unwanted attention, and then calm Carrie down. "Carrie, How on earth did you do that?!"

"Me retaliating to Chris? I don't know, I- I was trying to calm down the situation… But also protect you…" Carrie said calmly, but trying to cover up actions that she knew Sue had just witnessed.

"Not Just that Carrie, You literally just ripped your locker door right off its lock and hinges, and slammed it into Chris's face, how in the world did you do that? Even someone like Tommy could do that." Sue asked in concern.

"What can't I do?" Tommy said as he appeared behind Sue.

"Oh hi Tommy, didn't see you there…" Sue apologised, as she and Carrie turned to him.

"Hi Sue, Hi Carrie, Sorry if I startled you guys there." Tommy apologised back.

"It's ok, it's fine." Carrie and Sue replied, showing all was ok.

"Glad to hear, what were you girls saying about me?" Tommy asked in teasing concern.

"Carrie just reacted to Chris's bullying in an unbelievable way…" Sue replied in her still amazed tone.

"Oh Yeah? How?" Tommy asked in concern & curiosity.

"I- I slammed my locker door into her face…" Carrie replied nervously.

"As well as ripping it right off its lock and hinges." Sue added.

"What?! How?" Tommy asked in amazement, as he and Sue looked at Carrie with curiosity, making her more nervous.

"It's ok Carrie, you can tell us, we won't tell anyone else, we promise." Sue said in reassurance, as Carrie took a deep breath…

"Well… I've only just learnt last night, the reason why you guys and nearly everyone else have seen me being able to… do things that most people can't do, is because… Well… You all know that my parents adopted me, but never told anyone, not even me, about where I really came from… until now…" Carrie replied nervously.

"Ok? W-where do you really come from Carrie?" Tommy asked in concern and curiosity.

"Well… I don't exactly know where it is, or what it's called… But as it turns out, my real home & family, are nowhere near or from Chamberlain… In fact they are nowhere from either on or near this… this planet, maybe not even this part of the universe for all I can think…" Carrie replied nervously still, leaving Sue and Tommy in surprise…

"So… what you're saying Carrie is… is that you're some kind of… But you look so human…" Sue tried to say, but was stuttering in surprise…

"Yeah…" Carrie replied still in nervous tone. "I really wasn't sure how I would ever tell anyone, especially people like you guys…Especially you Sue…"

"Why, Carrie?" Sue asked her crush in worry and concern.

"Because I thought that… If David knew what I really am… you'd think I was a freak, and wouldn't want to go to prom with me anymore…" Carrie replied nervously again…

"David asked Carrie to Prom, right?" Tommy asked in surprise.

"Aww Carrie, don't be silly, I don't care whatever you are David still want you as his prom date." Sue smiled in awe, before embracing Carrie as tight as she could.

"We understand Carrie, It must be hard for you keeping your true self secret…" Tommy said to calm Carrie.

"How are you guys believing me? I thought you'd both think I was talking all sorts of crazy misbelief…" Carrie said in surprise but still nervously worried…

"Well… we'll be honest Carrie, we've noticed you being able to extraordinary & unimaginable things over time… we thought we were just seeing things, but after yesterday, that confirmed it for me, I mean, you zooming through the pool as if it was empty, you being able to hit the volleyball before it landed or got hit by someone else, you throwing the ball in Chris's face that fast & hard… and I'm pretty sure, Chris's phone exploding… That must have been you…" Sue said, with a slight giggle.

"You destroyed Chris's phone? Oh that's cool Carrie." Tommy said in amazement and humour.

"She was recording everyone throwing tampons at me, trying to make us do something rude… so I just looked at, it then glowed with heat, before finally exploding into sparks…" Carrie said with nervous giggle.

"Well there you go then." Tommy said with reassurance, as he, Sue & Carrie all give slight giggles.
