It's a peaceful day in the North Side of Starlight City. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, there isn't even a cloud in the sky. Most would only expect to see such a beautiful day in something like a painting, never in reality. As people make their way throughout the city they all silently agree that there's no way anybody could be having a bad day-

"NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

As the pained voice rings out for all in the north side to hear, the birds fly away in fear, clouds start to cover the sky, and everyone in the streets begins to wonder who it was that screamed out in pure defeat.

The answer?

A local freshman at Starlight High by the name of Selina Gulvonac.

"Please delay midterm week by like a month! PLEASE!!!!" Selina prays in Amnestor's classroom.

"Sorry but, I don't exactly get to decide when these things are scheduled," Aken Amnestor remarks as he sips his coffee.

Elsewhere in the classroom, X Locke, Sammy Becken, Marcus Veridan, & Randy Buzz are all looking at everybody else in confusion.

"Guys it's just a few tests," Marcus says trying to calm everybody down, "Its not gonna be that hard."

"Not that hard?" Alex groans, "Easy for you to say bub with your perfect math skills and perfect grades."

"Well my grades aren't perfect but-"

"JUST TAKE THE COMPLIMENT, BUB!"

"YEAH YOU DESERVE IT!" Elizabeth angrily agrees.

"Uh, okay," Marcus responds.

"I don't see what the huge hubbub is about," Sammy says as she sits atop a desk, "It's just grades, they're not anything to fret over."

"Maybe your family doesn't care about them but ours do!" Ronnie rebuttals as he is skimming through a 500 page textbook.

"I mean what happens if you guys do badly? It's not like the club would get closed down or anything," Randy laughs.

Though as Randy laughs, he sees X Locke fall silent on that matter.

"Wait, it will?!" Randy yells in shock.

"Sheesh you don't have to shout, I'm right next to you," X groans as he rubs his ear, "And yes. Before I joined the student council, Evan Dixon made a rule where all clubs had to have their average GPA be above 3.0 in order to still function. The rule is being applied starting right after midterms."

"3.0? That doesn't sound too bad to fulfill," Marcus says, "Right guys?"

He gets no response from the others.

"Currently, your GPA scores are," X Locke begins to say as he looks at a clipboard, "4.0 for Marcus Veridan."

Everyone glares at Marcus as he tries to say, "Well- It isn't exactly anything too impressive."

"THAT'S THE HIGHEST GPA YOU CAN GET!" Selina yells.

"Randy's GPA is 3.5," X remarks.

"Wait, I'm smarter than all of y'all?" Randy questions as he grins, "Looks like The Buzzing Brawler wins this match up!"

"Sammy has a 2.75 GPA," X remarks.

"I could do more if I studied but I don't so," Sammy shrugs.

"Alex has a 2.6 GPA, Elizabeth has a 2.5 GPA," X Locke remarks.

"Wait, I'm better than Lizzy?!" Alex questions as he looks at Elizabeth.

"Ugh, how the hell is he better than me?" Elizabeth groans.
