At the welcome ceremony, both of the new students, The Readers, had questioned the headmaster in front of everyone. Alwyn rested his chin on his hand in amusement while the two Deans were startled by The Readers' absurd questions.

"But what if we've been dropped in the wrong school?" Sophie stood up on the Evil side.

Another girl from the Good side had also stood up. She was a pretty brunette, obviously an Ever, "Or there's been a mistake and we need to go home immediately?"

The two deans were quiet as the Headmaster answered, "There are no mistakes in the School for Good and Evil, so..." He turned around, away from all the students. "Have a nice semester."

The next morning consisted of the daily classes. The first class Alwyn had was Advanced Spell Casting. Now, he was in a different class, Uglification.

"Uglify!" Professor Bilous Manley slowly walked around the room. "Why do we need to be ugly?"

Hort was leaning on the desk as his head rested on his hand, staring across at Sophie with a dreamy sigh.

"Hort! Wake up!" Professor Bilous Manley shouted at him, startling the boy.

Hort quickly sat up straight as he spoke fast. "Oh, because it makes children cry."

"Wrong." Professor walked past his desk. "That's merely a bonus." He walked up to Sophie's desk, splashing liquid into her pot. "Why be revolting and repugnant?"

"My question exactly." Sophie wasn't afraid to speak up to the Professor.

From the corner of Alwyn's eye, he saw that the Professor stopped beside him. So, Alwyn casually spoke out loud with no care, "It's a mask. Everyone's eyes will be on the star-" His eyes glanced at the new blonde, Sophie. "Not on an unappealing lowlife. Then when they least expect it-"

"Bam!" Professor shouted as his hand hit the desk. "Ugliness is freedom!" He continued walking as he shouted in the classroom. He coughed and spit as his tooth came out, hitting Hort's head and then landing into Sophie's pot.

"My tooth just fell out." Professor held the pot of water amongst other liquids. "It's disgusting. And I don't care. And that is power!"

Alwyn glanced behind him to see Hort daydreaming into Sophie's eyes again. He took his eyes off his friend and looked over at the blonde, seeing how dreadful she was in class, "Cheer up, ballerina. You're not the only pretty face here. We all have ugliness within. Each and every one of us."
