The teacher put me, Remy, Jane and Brenda on Mary's desk in the potions class.
"Sorry about this, Mr Ovals," the other teacher said. "These girls messed with some potions. Just ignore them for now."
The teacher walked out and Mr Ovals straightened his sleeves. "Mrs. Neemy isn't here right now. She disappeared after lunch started. So I'm filling in for her until she gets back."
"How did you shrink so small?" Bob said from a desk next to Mary. He stared at me Remy and Jane.
"We drank the wrong potion, and then teacher shrunk us some more," I said.
"So today, we're making this... green blue potion," Mr. Ovals said, pointing at a picture on the board.
"Sir, are you sure you know what you're doing?" Bob said.
"Of course" Mr Ovals said. "Now... Just watch me."
Mr. Ovals put a few ingredients in his pot and stirred it, but then a weird smoke came from out of the pot.
The smoke filled the whole classroom. "That smells nice," Mary said.
I started to feel my body shifting again after inhaling the smoke. I was shrinking again!
"That's not good," Mr. Ovals said, getting smaller behind his desk. "Everyone, stay calm and go to the exit!"
Remy, Jane and Brenda started shrinking, but I was still the smallest.
A little while later, Bob and Mary and everyone else in the class started shrinking as well.
When I was a bit smaller under Jane's ankle, I saw someone moving on the ground. It was Mrs. Neemy!
"Guys, Mrs. Neemy is down there!" I shouted. Nobody heard me though. Mary and Brenda had already run out of the classroom with everyone else except me, Jane and Remy.
"We're so tiny! We can't stop shrinking!" Remy cried with her head on her knees.
