I awoke to see fuzzy shapes around me. The shapes became clear and my friends were around me with shocked faces.
"Are you okay?" Tegan asked shakily.
"I'm fine, what happened?" I replied, with a slight smile.
"It was Evan's fault," Ethan started, "when you turned away he picked up a rock and threw it at the back of your head. He's in the principal's office right…." His voice drifted off as I turned to see Doctor Smith staring at me. He walked up to our group, "Kayla… Could you come with me to my office, your friends need to get to class."
"Yes, sir" I sighed, "I'll talk to you guys later. You'd better do what Doctor Smith says." I added with a cheeky grin.
Doctor Smith walked towards his office, winding up the stairs of B Block. As I followed in silence, I touch the back of my head to feel the giant lump that had erected from the blow. I brought my hand back in front to examine any signs of blood. No blood, I thought, a hit like that should have produced blood. I touched where I was hit again, but this time there was no lump. We entered the office, no other teachers were present.
"Should there be someone with the rest of the Biology class, Doctor Smith?" I quizzed him.
"Well… I waited half an hour and no one turned up. I, of course, looked down the list and saw that you were in the class. So I came looking for you and found you sitting on the ground with your friends around you. So what happened? I saw the lump on your head and the blood. Please call me the Doctor." The Doctor explained with guilty-looking eyes.
I stared at the floor and told him what had happened. After I had finished, the Doctor turned me around and examined where the lump was.
"It's completely healed!" he exclaimed, "That's not right, what are you?" he quizzed. He pulled out of his pocket a long, silver tube with a green light on the end. The Doctor pointed it at me and pressed the button on it.
"What am I?" I asked him angrily. "No offence, but I'm a human and you certainly don't act like one. So what are you?"
"Okay so you're a human and I'm a human, so that will be all. Off to your next class." He replied back with slight anger.
As I looked at my timetable, I bumped it to Evan again.
"I'm sorry for throwing that rock at your head." He quietly responded to me.
"Don't worry about it," I replied, "Hey, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." He replied in a slight robotic voice and then he turned away and staggered off to his next class.
I stared at him as he walked off in the same movement that Mr Wicks did this morning. Something is definitely fishy here at the moment, I thought. Maybe something coming that might change the way we live now. I shrugged off the thought and walked off to my next class, not noticing that most of the teachers were acting quite strange as I walked by.
