Chapter One
Attention, Students!
Zoey was startled when she first heard the news.
"Chase!" she screamed as soon as she saw the bulletin board. Not even a full second later, Chase appeared at Zoey's side.
"What up, Zo?" he asked, trying to look casual, as though he hadn't just been pulled from his homework. He peered at the bulletin that Zoey was pointing to, and shuddered.
ATTENTION STUDENTS!

PEOPLE AUCTION!

ALL FUNDING WILL GO TOWARDS SUSHI ROX.
TO VOLUNTEER, CONTACT DEAN RIVERS.
"What is it?" Zoey demanded. "Does PCA do this every year? It's wrong, Chase!"
Chase opened his mouth to explain. However, just then, Logan approached and caught sight of the sign. "Sweet!" he yelled. "Hey, Chase, how cool will this be with girls here? We can get them to do whatever we want!" He met Zoey's eyes and winked. To Chase, he observed, "Your girlfriend looks ticked." Then he walked away.
"She's not my girlfriend!" Chase yelled, a moment later than perhaps he should have. "So, Zoey, are you gonna sign up?"
Zoey raised an eyebrow. "Yes, Chase, I'm going to sign up so that Logan can buy me and treat me like his slave for a week. Sometimes I wonder about you." She paced in front of the sign. "We need to do something to get back at Logan, though."
"What?" demanded Chase.
Zoey sighed. "If Logan's going to bid on girls and then treat them like that, we need to do something. Get an insider who doesn't mind being mistreated for the sake of justice. Someone like..."
"Someone like you, Zo," Chase said quickly. "You can handle Logan. You're the only one who can. If he gets out of line, you can report him, but otherwise, we need to have a plan."
Zoey stared. "A plan?" she asked, baffled. She as the unofficial leader of PCA's girls knew all about plans, but this seemed strange, coming from her best friend. "Chase, are you feeling okay?" she asked. But at the same time, she was considering this "plan" idea.
Chase sighed. "If he gets out of hand, you're gonna need to do something, though."
Zoey knew what he meant. They weren't in eighth grade anymore. They were in eleventh, and as time had gone by, Logan had become more unpredictable. To someone Logan had full control over, there was no knowing what he could do. Zoey took a deep breath, and Chase looked at her curiously.
"Do you think you can do it?" he asked her gently.
"Yes," said Zoey in a strong voice. "I can do it. Now, get Lola, Michael, and Nicole, and meet me in Sushi Rox in five minutes. We need to get a plan."
Chase nodded. His throat was dry. "Yeah. A plan."
