"This is my friend Andrea Wilson. She mostly goes by Andy.  She's a bit nervous with it being her first day here and all that." Brenda says to the teacher. I look over to Brenda and as she looks over to me, seeing the nervousness on my face, she chuckles.

Class continues, then it ends. I walk over to Brenda. "You didn't have to do that for me." I tell her.

"Yes. I did." She says still packing up her stuff.

"I can't believe that I can't even say my name without completely becoming nervous."

"It's nerve racking. I know. "

"What am I gonna do now? I have the next class without you." I ask.

"Just say your name. You can do that simple thing. After the next class is 3rd, 4th, and home room, then lunch. I will see you in 4th, home room, and lunch. After that we will have 2 classes again together. " Brenda explains to me.

We both leave the class and shows me to science. I stink at science so this should end well. I walk into my room.

As I adjust my glasses, I sit down. I twirl my hair around my finger as I wait for class to start. The teacher walks in. He seems nice and before class starts he asks my name.

"I'm Andrea Wilson. I just moved here and I'm new to the school." I say to the teacher. I surprisingly got my name out of my mouth.

"Welcome. I will have you sitting in the chair in the back. We usually work in partners but today you can work with my student teacher, Kendra." He tells me as I'm guided to my seat.

'Ring!'
The bell rings and everyone sits down. I get the common look as people notice that I'm new. The student teacher walks in to class and sits down next to me.

"Hello, you must be the new kid, Andrea, right?" Kendra asks in a friendly manner.

"Yeah. I just moved here from New York." I tell her.

"Wow, New York huh. Well my name is Kendra, and I'm the student teacher. We just started working on a unit over... " i never got to hear her finish the sentence. I hear screaming from a distance. Nobody else can hear it so it's probably my hearing. I ask Kendra if I can use the bathroom. She says yes and I walk out of the room.

I go to the bathroom. I make sure that nobody else is in the bathroom while I am. I try to communicate with jake. He responds.

"Jake, I hear screaming outside and I think it's a shooter. Can I check it out?"

"During class? "

"I'm in the bathroom."

"How far is the gunman?"

"Umm I don't know let me check." I hear it. He just entered the school. "Agh!!" Someone screams.

"He's here. Jake I gotta go!" I turn into my supergirl outfit and rush through the window out to the front. I enter the school. The gunman is in the office holding a gun up to the office secretary. I rush in and punch the guy down. I unload his gun. No bullets now. I pick him up from the collar and rush him out the door. I don't open the door. I rush through. Then I go outside.

"Welcome to the life of prison." I call the cops and tell them that a man did  a shooting at the school and I caught him and everything was fine. I set him down in front of the prison. Cops run out and arrest him since he still has his gun.

I fly away. I hope they don't question this. The school calls the police anyway and says that a girl in a superman outfit saved them. It's supergirl! Just leave it at that. It kinda angered me. I'll be a copy of superman to most people.

I go through the bathroom window again. Nobody sees me or is in there. Once the lockdown is over, I run out. To my class in my regular school clothes.  I enter science. Everyone looks at me. Some with tears in their eyes. Others filled with shock. My teacher and student teacher run over to me.

"Andrea are you okay? Oh my gosh we were so worried. What happened? Did you see?" Not only were they asking but a couple of kids were as well.

I kinda stood there in shock by all the attention.

"I..was in the bathroom. And heard noises. So I stood on the toilet. Waiting and praying that it would be all over."

Everyone was still standing there waiting for more explanation.

"Um.. Th, th, That's, thats  it." I kinda stutter.

The teachers hug me. Then I walk over to my seat next to Kendra. Class soon ends.

I walk to find my next class. So many papers. I'm looking through my papers and bam. I ran straight into a guy. All my papers drop. The guy doesn't have the decency to look up at me to ask if I'm fine.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!"  I shout at the kid. He picks up the papers he can see, then runs to class. I check to find my schedule. It's nowhere. I lost it. Shoot. Remember, Andrea, remember! I walk to the office and tell them my name. They say it's pre-algebra. I walk to the room and enter.

More attention guided to me. I give a pass to the teacher. She asks my name.
"Andrea Wilson. I'm new here."  I tell her.

"Sit in the back row next to Callum." The teacher points out to a boy with brown hair and a couple freckles. I look over to the boy. I see his face. I recognize the face. It's the guy who ran into me in the hall. He sees my face. I can tell what he's thinking. I sit down next to him.

I've had one question on my mind the whole time since class started.
"Let me see your papers."
"Wha.."
"Now." I respond.
He hands me his binder. I look through his stuff and grab my papers that I find. "There's my schedule!" I whisper to myself.
I gave him back the binder.

"Why were you so angry today? Is today your first day?" He asks me. With a British accent it sounds like.

"I've got anger issues and it's tough for me to handle in stressful situations." That was all that I would tell the kid.

"That's cool. W, Well not cool, but unique. Not that you are special or anything, I mean you seem nice I don't mean that you aren't special. I, I'm not good at talking." He says in a stuttered whisper.  "I've had a crazy day. I saw who saved the office secretary."

"You, you did? Who?" I ask now nervous. Shoot he knows my identity.

"A girl. Dressed like superman. Yet that's not it. There's background information to the outfit. It's supergirl." He says.

I notice that he kinda smiles after saying the name, supergirl. It's cute. He blushes a bit as well. I can't help but listen to his British accent. The freckles on his face are very noticeable. I then hear my name and get back into concentrating to class.

"Andrea, you have a call slip." The teacher says to me. I walk up to her.
It says to go to the office.

Immediately.
