"Attention students!" The speaker boomed. All eyes were up on the black speaker as they listen to their principal announce some news everyone has been dying to hear.

-

"Exam is coming up in a few weeks. And we've decided to cancel the school day for this week. You guys can review at home." Principal Damocles announced.

Mr. Damocles is a stout man with amber eyes. He has large, bushy black eyebrows, gray sideburns and beard, and a light gray mustache. He is bald on the top of his head.

He wears a brown dress jacket with a chest pocket and and pockets on either side of the waist over a creamy-white dress shirt, a light chestnut brown necktie worn on his collar, dark brown, almost dark greyish-brown dress pants, and light greyish-brown loafers with a whit strips above the tips of his toes.

All of the students were cheering, happy that they don't have to go to school for a whole week, but they were also very curious as to why they have to study at home.

"Aspiring Bands, Musical Teams, and Artists all around the Globe were given a chance to compete and be recognized by all in a form of competition. A Band competition." Principal Damocles started.

"One of the competitions will be held here, in Paris. And they've decided to hold the competition here, at Collège Françoise Dupont."

He then motions Luka and Kitty Section to come up to him at the stage.
"And Kitty Section will represent France and bring honour to our school!"

Everybody cheered for Kitty Section. This will be their biggest competition yet. Everybody was excited. "The entrance is tomorrow, you guys have to be up around 7 am sharp." Principal Damocles said. He then looks at Luka with a subtle smile on his face.

Luka is a tall, slender, attractive teenage boy of fair skin. He has a Roman nose, pale pink lips, light aqua blue eyes, and medium-length black hair that has dyed teal blue tips.

His attire includes a white shirt with a black Jagged Stone imprint and black jeans ripped at the knee. He also wears a brown leather bracelet, yellow and orange wristbands, and his fingernails are painted black.

He has a sky blue jacket with a navy blue hoodie underneath, as well as black high top converse with multi-colored splotches. He wears a black ring with silver outlining on his left pointer finger and black gauges in his ears.

Mister Damocles takes Lukas hand and firmly shakes it profusely. "Good luck for tomorrow, Kitty Section." He says. Luka could only chuckle and nod at him.

-

Kitty Section went to school the next day, 7 am sharp just like Principal Damocles said. Luka held their band information and handed it to the woman infront of the desk.

The woman signs their band information and gave them a pass. Everybody was amazed at how they fixed up the court. It was tidy and clean and they have this "Welcome." banner up top.

"I'm nervous." Rose squeaked, her voice a bit quivery and shaky.

Rose Lavillant is a student in Miss Bustier's class at Collège Françoise Dupont. She is a slightly tanned fair-skinned slender teenage girl of medium height with a honey blonde pixie cut hair with bangs that slightly cover her eyes to the right and a tiny cowlick on top, round periwinkle eyes, eyeliner and pink lipstick.

She wears a shirt with light pink sleeves and top front, pink and white stripes on the front, a pink back that has a pale golden wing design, and a string tied around her waist.

She also has a pink mini skirt with two white edges at the bottom of the cloth, white leggings, two pink bracelets around her right wrist, and pink dress shoes.

Luka puts a hand on her shoulder for reassurance. He gives her a subtle smile and pats her shoulder.

"You guys will do great, just breathe." Luka said.

"He's right." Juleka nodded.

Juleka Couffaine is a student in Miss Bustier's class at Collège Françoise Dupont. She is also the younger sister of Luka Couffaine.
Juleka is a slender teenage girl of pale skin who stands at a medium height.

She has copper eyes and tailbone-length black hair, with dyed violet tips at the end and bangs covering the left side of her face.

She wears a pale lavender lipstick and her fingernails are painted gray with black nail art of intricate patterns on each one with different designs on each hand.

Juleka wears a black shirt with a mandarin collar and sea green lined collar and side pockets, and black mesh short sleeves. She also wears purple pants with holes above the knees and black high top sneakers with white soles.

On her hands, she has black fingerless lace gloves that have a diamond pattern design and end halfway up the forearm. She sometimes wears a glove on her right hand with a small mirror or makeup compact attached to it.

"This is gonna be so cool!" Ivan cheers.

Ivan Bruel is another student in Miss Bustier's class at Collège Françoise Dupont. He is large and bulky with gray eyes. His hair is short and black, except for a tuft of long, dyed blond hair above his forehead.

He wears a black t-shirt with a white design of two crossing bones printed on the chest. He also wears black slacks with large belt loops and large pockets, along with white socks and khaki-colored work boots.

"True true. Nothing will stop us from having a good t-"

Luka stopped on his tracks as he hears this faint noise that caught his attention. It was kind of like screaming and arguing. He then identifies a female voice.

Someone was in trouble!

He ran to where the voices were. He was surprised to see this guy bullying this girl. She was in a corner, with the guy towering above her. Luka didn't want to intervene, but it looked really serious.

But then he stopped. It was like he was glued in his place. He didn't need to intervene yet.

"Where are your band mates, shorty? Did they ditch you?" The bully asked.

The girl shoved him away and flipped her finger at the guy. A part of him wanted to laugh at the girls antics but then thought that it'd be rude.

"Go screw other people Jake I'm not in the mood to do this with you." Luka heard her say, and then she walked off.

But the bully wasn't done with her yet.
