Chapter 2

Meeting the Shadow

I sat there just around the corner, building up my courage to face the girl I had been created for. Literally! When I had gone up to the front desk saying I was a new student, they had told me to find a girl named Shadow Moon and tell her that I was told she could give me a tour. Right as the secretary said her name my heart skipped a beat. I was finally going to meet her! In fact, she was going to be one of the first people I was going to meet! Now i see her right in front of me putting her stuff in her locker. I know I probably look a little crazy standing here staring at her, but I don't think she has noticed me yet. I might as well talk to her before she does…

"Hi, umm Shadow right?" I ask as coolly as I can.

"Umm yes, do you need anything?" Shadow asks as she turns to me.

"Yes actually, I was told you could give me a tour, I'm new here…"

"Sure! What's your name? I would tell you mine, but I guess you already know it."

"I'm SuperNova, but I'd like it if you just call me Nova… SuperNova sounds a little weird."

"Sure. Cool name!" She said as we started walking down the halls. As we went she named a few places, and after we went around the whole school she asked me where my first class was so she could bring me to it…

"Oh, we have the same first class! That's good, now I will be able to help you find your second one. Well we better get going!" and we started walking to History together.

Well that didn't go to bad. I thought as we were walking, I just wonder what she will think when she finds out we have all the same classes… Or that, well I don't even wanna think about that right now…

"Oh Shadow, you finally decided to show up! And who have you brought with you?" the teacher asks as we walk in.

"Sorry we're late Mrs. Lamson, I had to show this new kid Nova around. I have a note for the both of us." Shadow explains as she hands the piece of paper she had been holding to the teacher.

"Oh yes, I was told to be expecting a new student today… I was told you are a special one, is it Nova?" Mrs. Lamson asks me.

"Umm, yes Nova…" I said awkwardly as I notice a group of girls staring at me. What can I say, I was built with looks.

"What kind of special?" Shadow asks curiously.

"Aren't we interrupting the class?" I ask dodgily.

"Oh yes. We were just talking abou- Oh ya! I need to give you a seat…" Mrs. Lamson says, "The note tell me you are required to sit by Shadow Moon, so I'll have you sit on the seat to the right of her, and to the left of the the girl with the star birthmark on her neck, her name is Star."

"Wait why is he required to sit by me?" Shadow asks suspiciously.

"I told you, he's special, just like you. Now go sit down Nova." Mrs. Lamson orders.
