Chapter 3
POV: 3rd person
As the bell rang Kyla and Luna got up to head to their second period class, history. As the girls climbed the stairs to the third floor they wondered why the school had long curtains covering the windows. It would of made sense if it was winter and the school was trying to keep the school warm but it was the end of summer and the temperature was abnormally high today. Another thought that crossed the girls' minds were still,
" Why do we have history the whole year did we do badly on our history exams last year"? As Luna and Kyla reached the third floor they saw their friend Lucy. Lucy smiled and quickened her pace to catch up to them, just as the bell rung the trio entered the classroom. No one but the teacher was there yet, Lucy craned her head out to door and saw that more students were headed to the room but were walking slowly not caring that they would be late. Lucy then stuck her head back into the classroom and proceeded to sit next to her two friends.

The room is very cold I noticed, "Well i'm gonna freeze to death", I thought to myself.
I saw on the board the teacher had wrote his name, "Mr. Lincoln". He was tall and had short blonde hair and blue eyes. He was sitting at his desk, he looked like he was having trouble with his phone.
" Sir do you need help," one of the students who had walked in asked.
" What's your name," the teacher asked.
"Nicholas, um who are you Mr...", Nicholas said;
I noticed though he sounded terrified when he spoke and I wondered why.
" My name is Mr. Lincoln", the teacher said,
while giving Nicholas the death glare. It was like he knew that Nicholas was the slackie of the school. Nicholas sat in his seat immediately looking scared. The room was dark all the windows were covered in curtains. Eventually everyone was seated talking to their friends. Mr. Lincoln cleared his throat loudly, I looked up at him meeting his eyes. I quickly looked away, trying to sit up straighter.
" Alright students first off we will be having assigned seating", Mr. Lincoln said.
With that he started calling our names and pointing at different desks. I sat right next to his desk with Nicholas right behind me. I heard Nicholas snicker at me.
"He knows your a snitch", he said quietly.
I had never told on anyone in my life before so why he thought I was snitch, I didn't know the only time I could recall telling on someone was in the third grade but he wasn't in my class back then. I looked at my Luna and Kyla who were conveniently sitting next to me. Luna was drawing as usual while Kyla was taking her notebook out. I looked around as some boys on the football team walked in.
" Alright for those who have arrived late you will be receiving detention", Mr. Lincoln said gravely.
"But dude it's the first day and we got practice…", the quarterback of the football team whined.
I rolled my eyes at him. For a football player he acts like a baby. As the late arrivers sat down, I watched as Mr. Lincoln moved them to different spots and handed out their detentions. Then there was attendence and then he went over the syllabus. "The usual boring stuff" , I thought to myself as he went over the list. When class was finally over I felt so relieved. After that the day was pretty normal same annoying math teacher and then there was Spanish. Spanish was a fun class the teacher had a good sense of humor though she could be mean at times. I was excited for the next day of school….
Until I remembered our Dean was Henry Parish, The Horseman of War. I realized he was here for a reason. And that my friends and I would have to find out why.
