Next chapter: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/343244575/ Alien - Chapter 1 "Anthony" ___________________________________________ Heya! I'm Anthony, and I go to a special school made for us hybrids. Let's just say I wasn't the most popular coming in that first day. It's kind of hard to fit in when you don't know any English and you were kind of just dumped on Earth. I should probably start there... Let's go back to the first day of school, shall we? ___________________________________________ "You're Avalo, right?" Principle Wood asks, looking at my record on the school computer. "Y-yes..." I mutter., looking down at my worn out sneakers my parents got me. "It says here you transferred from the planet Ru, you're 15, and you want to be called Anthony.. Correct?" "I would like that." I agreed, hoping I'm using my English correctly. "Right, there will be another building called an Apartment. It is where you will be staying with another person called your roommate. He will be helping you with learning the ropes of the school. Alright?" He asked me. "Oh, yes. Is he here?" I asked, secretly not knowing what 'learning the ropes' meant. "He will be at the dorm waiting for you. What you can do is go to the dorm and look for the door that has the number 304 on it, and slide the card in the slot." The principle explained. I nodded and walked off after he said I could leave. There was a huge crowd of kids in the hallways, skipping off to class, or eating in what I learned later would be the cafeteria. I realized there were quite a few people staring at me. Maybe they heard I transferred. Or it was because of my antennae. Eventually, I made it to the dorms and opened the door. There was a boy who looked a year older than me sitting in a chair by the door looking at his phone. He looked up at me and his eyes widened. "Anthony right? The principle told me about you. The name's C.J. I'm your roommate" He said, standing up. He had a devil like tail, horns, and red-brown messy hair. His eyes were a bright red, and one was covered with an eye patch. It seemed to be hiding some sort of strange scar. Overwhelmed by the fact that he was at least a head taller than me, I stutter "Oh.. Y-yes, I am Anthony. Where is this... 'dorm'?" "I'll show you." he said blankly, and punched the up arrow on the elevator. I started looking at the elevator with great interest, curious why the arrow made the door open. C.J. pulled me inside and pushed a button that would take us to the 3rd floor. The back of the elevator seemed to be a giant window, so we could see us going up. That ride finally made me realize what people mean when they say 'scared of heights', because that was a long way down. I walk inside, finding it relativity empty, besides two bed frames and mattresses, two desks with chairs and a computer, a dresser, a closet, and some beanbag chairs. Our bags were already moved in. As we started unpacking, I ask "So.. What are these class schedules for?" "It's the order of your classes. Each class has a different room that you need to go to." C.J. says, putting his room key on the dresser. "Okay.. Do you have any sort of advice for school in general?" I ask, wanting to make the most of this. "Hm..." C.J. thought, "Just... Don't get caught up in the drama." "Drama?" I ask "You'll see." he replies.
