Title: Chapter 1: The Entrance
We were all writing our essays when the new girl walked in, accompanied by the principal. Everyone looked up at the noise of the door opening and saw the two of them walk into the classroom.

''Yes...''
''Well, she should be in high school with that brain of hers, but fourth grade was the highest her parents could put her.''
