"Quiet down, class." Rosalina tapped the desk with her wand. "We have a new student in today!"

The class grew silent.

"I would like you all to meet our new transfer student, Olly!" She signaled for him to come over.

"H-hey guys..." He waved awkwardly.

"Would you like to tell us a bit about yourself?"

"I just transferred her-r-re and my name's O-O-Olly..." He looked at Rosalina. "Is it alright if I sit down?"

"Oh, of course!" She smiled. "There's an empty seat right next to Tobias there. He's the one wearing purple boots."

Olly walked over to Tobias and sat down. "H-hi..."

He looked at Olly and smiled. "Whateva."

Olly looked around. He was sent to the Principal's' office because he loved giving new students tours of the school. He was...completely lost. He returned to his locker for the fifth time when he finally gave up.

Tobias slammed Olly's locker shut. "O-o-oh look! It's stutter boi."

Is my stutter really that obvious? I'm going to get laughed at by the entire school, just like last time! Why do people always pick on me for that...?...

"Hey, back off Tape."

Tobias sighed. "Whateva." He walked away, locking some kid into their locker on his way past.

"You okay, new kid?"

Olly looked up from the corner he was sitting in. There was an oddly tall male with grey hair and emerald green eyes. He seemed to be one of the older students-or even a teacher-because he was sporting a mustache and a goatee. He had a scar on his left eye and right cheek. He was holding out his hand, waiting for Olly to grab it so he could help him up.

Olly accepted his hand. "Thanks."

"What's his problem? Why'd he call you 'stutter boy'?"

"Well, I stutter when I get nervous. And just my luck, I stuttered in class this morning. It's normally my o's or r's." Olly realized he could ask this person for directions. "Do you know where the Principal's office is?"

"You're standing right next to it." He pointed a thumb at the door in between them.

Olly looked at it. "Oh...I wonder how I overlooked it..."

"Well, have a good day." He waved and walked off.
