4.) School Attack
"Hey, Melody, what class do you have next?" Harry asks.
I check my schedule. "Looks like I have French with Mrs. Motte."
"Awesome!" Harry fist pumps. "We have the next class together then."
I give a nervous smile. "Cool."
"I'll see you again in Lit," MJ says. "Peter has Spanish next, so he'll be heading in the same direction as you. He and Ned can take you to Lit class as that's what they have for third."
"Yeah, everyone but me," Harry pouts.
"We all have lunch together," MJ says.
"Who's Ned?" I ask.
"Another of our friends," MJ says. "He has physics first."
Peter chuckles. "Do you know all our schedules by heart or something?"
"Of course I do, don't ask such a dumb question," MJ scoffs. "I have a great memory."
The bell rings for next class.
Harry swings his arm over her shoulder. "We know, babe." He releases her and swings his other arm over my shoulders. "Let's head to class, shall we?" He leads us out the room.
Peter follows behind us with a chuckle. We all walk together to the far back of the school where all the foreign language classes are located.
"I'll see you guys next class," Peter waves off, heading to the classroom further down.
Harry leads me into French class and introduces me to Madame Motte.
"Ah, you must be the new student, Mademoiselle Melody. A beautiful name," she smiles with her heavy but understandable accent. "It's nice to meet you."
"Likewise," I respond.
"We sit in alphabetical order so everyone will have to move down from where you'll fit in," Madam Motte tells me.
"Harry, what's your last name again?" I ask.
"Osborn," he chuckles. "Sorry, we won't be near each other."
"Actually, she'll be right beside you," Mrs. Motte says, looking at the role of students. "She'll be taking Alyssa's seat behind Miranda."
Everyone from Alyssa stands up and moves back for me to sit.
I sheepishly walk over to my new seat. "Uh, hi."
"Bonjour," Miranda replies.
"B-Bonjour..." I mumble.
"Well, this is cool," Harry grins. "You any good at French?"
"Yeah, I was in French 2 at my last school, but it didn't transfer to here correctly. I don't mind though. It's fun to relearn French."
"Good," Harry says with a wink. "You can help me through it."
French class quickly ends, and Peter appears with his friend Ned.
"Melody, this is Ned," Peter introduces.
"Hi," Ned waves.
"Hi," I respond.
We head our separate ways from Harry and enter Literature class. MJ is there waiting for us. I make my way up to the teacher and introduce myself.
"I saw your grades from your previous school," Ms. Wulf smiles. "You're quiet a brilliant mind. I see this is your favorite subject?"
"I love to write music, so it's good to know," I agree.
"Well, it looks like you've already made good friends with Peter and Ned, so you can take the seat nearest them."
"Thank you," I say with a light bow before scurrying off to the closest seat.
"Told ya we had class again," MJ smiles.
I end up sitting two rows away from Peter, one from Ned, and sat between MJ and a girl I don't yet know. Through class I eventually learn that the other girl beside me is Cindy Moon. She typically keeps to herself but is incredibly smart. After that is lunch which everybody seems to have this period.
Peter, Ned, MJ, and Harry bring me to a table they've taken up. There I meet Michelle and Gwen who's waiting for them. I noticed Flash, the dude from the store the other day, is also in this lunch period, but he sits a few tables away. My brother finds me and brings along a friend who's name is Miles. Everyone leaves to get food in the lunch line. My brother and I stay as we brought our own lunches.
"So, no accidents yet?" I ask.
"None so far," he replies. "I believe I'm starting to get a handle on these powers."
"I have chorus next, so I'm hoping I don't accidentally do something," I admit.
"You haven't yet," he tells me. "I think you'll be fine."
The rest of the day comes and goes until it's finally the last class of the day. Government. I take this class with Peter, Ned, and MJ.
"This class is so boring..." Ned complains.
About halfway into class, a loud crashing rip sound resounds throughout the school. Multiple screams ring outside the classroom and after a few moments the door to our room is kicked down. What enters is something from monster movies. A giant green scaled monster with a long snout walks into the room, scanning the room as if looking for a certain individual. Most everyone in the room screams and rushes out the door as the lizard man moves further in the room. The creature's eyes land on Peter and it grins. I'm so shocked by this beast, I become frozen, staring at it with interest. Everyone, but Peter and I, seem to have left.
"M... Melody! Run!" Peter shouts, shoving us towards the door while the creature chases us behind. He races us out the room, tugging me behind him.
I watch the creature tear up the halls, coming after us. I blink a few times before shaking my head and coming to. "What is that?!"
"I-I don't know!"
"Why is it after you?!"
We duck from getting swiped at.
"Split up!"
"What?! Are you insane?! Don't you know what happens to people when they split up in scary movies?!" I shout at him.
"No time!" he shoves me down a passing hallway and keeps running as the creature goes after him.
My eyes widen before gasping. "What the fuck!" I look around me to the empty halls as I hear crashing continuing down the hallway. "Dylan!" I rush outside to find him huddled with a group of other students.
"Mels!" he calls out, finding me.
"Did you see the monster?!" I huff.
"No, did you?" he questions.
"It was chasing Peter! Looked like a giant lizard!"
"We should go in and help," Dylan says determined.
"Dylan, we aren't superheroes!"
"Neither is Peter!"
"Dylan, we should leave this to the authorities."
"What good is having these powers of ours if we don't put them to good use!?" he angrily shouts at me.
"If something like this happens again," I begin. "We can. Not this time. If you want to be a hero we'll need costumes."
Dylan's eyes shine. "Are we really going to do this?!"
"We'll see."
