Chapter 2- The school

Mads woke me up in my bed and said good-bye. She was leaving for lacrosse which she had at 6:00. She want out the back door and left. "You want to watch T.V.?" I asked Kristy. She looked at me like I was crazy, "UM YEAH!" We watched forever until my parents woke. My mother pulled me aside to talk to me.

" Marina, you can go but-"

"YESSSSSSS!" I said very loud.

"Young lady, do not cut me off, as I was saying you will need to protect yourself at all times and you have my permission to swim in water. You are right, your 15 and it's time to let go." mother said while walking back and forth.

"Ok, thanks, bye!" I rushed off to call Mads and tell Kristy.

1 more hour later (+ another ten minutes screaming with Kristy.)

Mads was finally done with lacrosse we called her from my phone.

¨Hey, what's up?¨

¨Nothing except that my mother let me go to Superhero High!¨

¨Kay cool, oh I forgot, I got a letter to Superhero High, too!¨

Then I thought about Kristy, who is now on her phone. What about Kristy? I thought. ¨Um Kristy, did you get a letter,too.¨ She shook her head. ¨I…. Have to go. Um thanks for inviting me. Bye¨ She left when her dad picked her up. I hung up on Grace and thought alone.

12:00 (Lunch)

I went over to my neighbor's house to go eat lunch. She is more like a grandmother to me. Took care of me when my parents were called for meeting when I was 5. She took care of me when I was very sick and my parents didn't know how to take care of me.

¨Grandmother Willow, are you here?¨ I said as I walked into the house. ¨Yes child, I'm here. ¨ She was sitting in the rocking chair. Her pony, Sugarfoot, was there next to her. Before you say, WHAT IS A PONY DOING IN THE HOUSE! The pony was housebroken. She was a faithful companion of Grandmother Willow. "Oh Grandmother, I don't know what to do, I am going to a new school and don't know if is going to be ok. I talked to Arthur and he didn't give me to much luck. Oh Grandmother, what am I going to do?" I said while sobbing in Sugarfoot's mane. (It smells like pink sugar.) "Darling, be honest. Your future will all depend on you." she said. She fell asleep in her chair. I stood up ready to walk home. But then slipped on something. I was a old picture. From 14 years ago. It a young boy on Sugarfoot. He looked like me. "That is your brother. Wooh, he was a ball of energy, he did have the power of….of….." she fell asleep again. I smiled and left.

I started packing for my school. But then thought of Kristy. So I texted her.

Marina: Hey so are we ALL going to Superhero High?

Mads: … sure

Kristy: U guys will never believe this. I got in!?

Marina: OMG

Mads: Congrats

Marina: Sry GTG, bye

I wanted to make a list of what to pack, so I did.

10 tees

10 pants

My bed sheets

Pillows

Stuff animals

My watercolor blue backpack

Books

Notebooks

Pencil box

Computer, mouse & charger

Pictures of my family and friends

String lights

Purse

My light blue PJs

Gold shell necklace

Gold shell Necklace case

I was given a gold shell necklace from Arthur. I guess he has been saving it for when it grew up, but he never did. So i got it for my 14th birthday. A long with a velvet shell case to go along. I father promise to drive me to school on the first day. I can't wait.

1 day before the first day of school

I woke up to the sound of a loud barking noise down stairs. I tried to go back to sleep but I couldn't. So of course, I went downstairs to find out what it is. (After 4 flights of stair and a lot tripping in the dark.) I finally found a grey and white baby husky with icy blue eyes in a blue box. With a note that said, "Hello, I'm now your new pet. Please feed, care, and play with me. Take me to your school, too!" I went straight to my mother's room and thanked her. Then quickly texted my friends.

Marina: So guess what?

Mads: WHAT. I AM WORKING ON MY GOD DANG PROJECT

Kristy: What?

Marina: I got a husky! ?

Mads: Cool

Kristy: OMG, congrats

Mads: Are you taking it to school

Marina: yup!

Kristy: Puppy time!

Mads: wut's its name?!

Kristy: Yeah!

Marina: dunno

I shut off my phone to play with the husky. I was trying to figure a name for the puppy. "Hmmm, what about, Arctic?" Arctic jumped and wagged his tail. I laughed. "Well. Arctic it is."

Afternoon

After all the packing and shopping I was ready to go. I fold the clothes and neatly put all my things away in my suitcase. 3 suitcases to be correct and put it all by the door for the next early morning. I was reading my letter again saying that I was enrolled then on the back (when I flipped it over.) was a map or the dorms. I was excited. Probably didn't know that I'm a neat freak! At the bottom was a saying that I wouldn't be sharing a room with Mads or Kristy. Someone named Hayile. I hope that means that the person is neat, too.

Next morning (around 6:00 am)

"WOOF!" A furry creature howled while I was half asleep. "Oh be quiet, Artic. I'll get up in a couple minutes to get ready. Now calm down." I said groaning. Arctic won while pulling my blanket and my hand off the bed. I changed into a white off the shoulders tee that tied at the bottom. Added my light blue jeans ripped at the bottom. Finally braided my light blonde hair with blue tip into a braid. Wrapped the braids around my head so it looked like a wreath. I went to the back yard to take Arctic out. While he was doing his business, I pulled some vines and white flower to put in my hair. (I mean gotta look great on the first day!) My father FINALLY woke up and drank his coffee. After this and that we were ready to go. My mother kissed me good-bye and me and my dad headed off to Superhero High. Can't wait!
