Capítulo II- Lo Imposible

     Patience was always in a good mood in the morning. Compared to the mass of students who had barely woken up, wore bags underneath their eyes, and pupils shrinking from fatigue, Patience's face was bright, lifted, and her pupils dilated alert to her environment. The early bird struck out in the crowd of students with a natural smile on her face. She had been a morning person since day one and her dad, Dante, didn't know how she could wake up with so much energy. Maybe it was because she had school first thing in the morning and she had to be awake to intake the information before it passed from one ear to another. 

     Patience stepped off her late bus, weaving through the crowd of students. She had already been late to class twice this week. It wasn't entirely her fault. The school traffic of parents and buses entering the small parking lot crammed everyone together. When her dad would drop her off, she'd be dropped off by the school's field. Her fast walking could get her by her first period faster than a car.

     The first bell was five minutes away. She was lucky to have her dad prepare her breakfast. Dante would rather have her be late than let her go to school without a meal. He would wake up early and get ready for work. Then, he would always make her breakfast as she got ready for school. It was the same routine since day one, kindergarten.

     Patience passed through the football players who wore their jerseys. A similar blue shirt was tucked into her skirt for the pep rally later on that day. Her locker was right next to the stairs in front of Principal Perry's office. From the beginning of her freshman year, this current year, she had never failed to greet her with a good morning. At first, Perry replied because parents were in the halls, but after that, she would mumble something under her breath following the name "Perky Patience."

     Patience removed her backpack and picked out the books she took home. The hardcover book bumped the back of her locker and her pens and pencils rattled in the case. She picked out her algebra books, journal, and case, placing them in her backpack. She checked the time across the hall to make sure she had enough time to make it to class. As she did so, Leo appeared across her vision. She waved at him, "Hi, Leo!"

     He turned to her and smiled upon seeing her. "Oh, hey, Patience. Look who I brought," he pointed at Adam, Bree, and Chase at the center of the hall.

     She paced to him with her eyes wide. She had to take another look behind to make sure she wasn't seeing their doppelgangers. "Leo! you can't bring them to school. Mr. Davenport-"

     "Mr. Davenport doesn't know they're here. He's at a conference." 

     "They aren't supposed to leave the lab. Mr. Davenport clearly stated that they can't leave because if they were discovered, they would be taken away. They can't be here! You have to take them back."
