I'm a little crazy. Okay I am completely nuts but who can blame me? I mean living in a boarding school I don't have parents to scold me here. Just awesome friends, cute boys and ignorant teachers. Guess that means I'm set.

"YAAAAHHHOOOO!!!!" I scream running down the halls with a bunch of mini American flags, a wagon full of of fireworks, and more than my fair share of crazy ambition.

"Lets go Hothead we gotta party to start!!" I yell at my friend who simply stares after me. She's mad about something with her face red but she has anger problems and I still don't care. I laughed giddily as I raced through the halls freaking people out. My gang of nutty friends soon saw me and sprinter after.

"Yo lady switch to decaf!" A random guy I bonked in the head yelled. I never was much a fan of decaf. I saw the doors leading to brilliant sunshine screaming "Come on Z I'm waiting for you to go come outside and blow up whatever you can!" I take the invitation and smack into the doors. Like literally smack into them and almost trip into my wagon but Stone has my back. Stone is crazy strong but a complete blonde in more ways than one. That's why he's my friend.

Not ready to lose my triumphant race to victory (or setting off fireworks illegally) I turn that stupid knob and fly out into the suns rays leaving everyone else to run into those godforsaken doors just like I did. They do. But they at last prevail toward my destination. We all head to the field looking and sounding like vikings ready for battle.

"Does anyone have a match, or a torch, or a lighter, or a lighted cigarette, or something to light these bad boys on fire?" I ask the crowd of lunatics who had apparently decided to join me. I watched as people searched throught their pockets, and purses looking for my request.

"Dar ya go!" Yelled a hillbilly from the front and threw a purple lighter into the mud near my feet. Well he obviously goes to my school. I scoop up the lighter and rush to the wagon. The firework flies out of the package like magic. Okay it was just me. Stone, Terra, and Haley come over to help unload bundles of my evil plan.

By the time they're all set up everyone is practically drooling. I do a little dance of happiness before setting off the first. It nearly blows me back and rips my ears off. Should have thought of ear protection.

All of a sudden I see a flock of teachers stampeding toward us. There's so stupid not even caring to investigate what I was up to earlier. A teacher that was all to familiar hauled me up angrily and dragged me toward the building.

I had just enough sense to fight back. I tore away from his arms and darted back to my precious fireworks. Taking the lighter I set all of the ones that were set up on fire and they shot into the sky and exploded like a finale. I barely saw them start to rain down in sparks before everything went from color to dead black.

"Can you hear me Zyphira?" I heard a voice then saw a light shining directly into my eye. My eye is being held open and I swat at whatever is there. I turned over and fell off whatever I was on.

"Ow! Whaz goin on? Dow!!!" I slurred. I rolled on the tiled floor. Someone took my arms.

"Z calm down. How are you feeling?" A female voice flowed through one ear and out the other.

"Whazha wan? Done toush me! Goway!" I yelled rubbing the back of my head. Why do I hurt? Where am I?

"What's that Z? Here honey lets get you back on the cot. Can you stand?" The lady tried to help me up but I wanted to stay on the floor. Finally I remembered I had my eyes closed. I opened them. Wow! Hey I know this place! And I know these people! And I know what happened!

"Hi!" I peeped. The woman is Ms. Harty. Notice it is Ms not Mrs. Nobody wants to marry and who can blame those guys? I sure wouldn't want to marry her!
