New Team Members

"What should we do, Stacie?" Bradford asked, he was getting more nervous by the minute.

Ghostwriter: Don't be afraid, Anastasia and Bradford, write to me.

"I guess we will have to write to it." Anastasia said, grabbing a pencil and her sketchpad.

"Be careful, Stacie." Bradford warned.

Anastasia wrote: Hi, who are you?

Ghostwriter: My friends call me Ghostwriter.

"Whoa!" Bradford exclaimed.

Back at Hurston that afternoon, the science class were all at their work stations.

Elizabeth was holding a dropper of chemical over a beaker and was about to had a drop to the solution in it, when Calvin Junior nudged her arm.

"Calvin," Elizabeth growled. "what do you think you're doing? If I put too much of this chemical in my solution, it becomes an acid strong enough to eat through the top of the work bench!"

"How about you and me..." Calvin started.

"No," Elizabeth said, not letting him finish, "for the last time, I will not go out with you!"

"Listen," Calvin Junior snapped smugly. "do you realize what a service I'm doing for you? You would be lucky to be my girlfriend."

"'Lucky' is not what I would call it." Elizabeth muttered.

"How dare you..." Calvin Junior started.

"Leave her alone Calvin!" another voice snapped warningly.

It was then that Calvin Junior realized that AJ was standing right behind him.

AJ cracked his knuckles menacingly.

"This isn't over!" Calvin Junior growled before slinking back to his work station.

It was at that very moment, the teacher came out of the storage room with a couple more beakers, "Is there a problem here?" he asked.

"Not anymore." AJ said, going back to his station.

"Thank you." Elizabeth mouthed.

From his work station, AJ saw a message on the chalkboard from Ghostwriter.

Ghostwriter: Alexander James Fernandez-Baker, advocate of justice.

"Whoa!" AJ exclaimed.

After school let out that afternoon, AJ, Anastasia, and Bradford came home to find their mom and dad with suitcases in their hands.

"Suitcases?" Bradford asked.

"Are we taking a family vacation?" AJ wondered.

"Mom and I," Rob answered his three children. "will be conducting book signings in Paris France."
