(The girl's dressing room)

I put my art books into my locker, I take out my gym clothes and I head to the girl's changing room, so I can change. After changing into my gym clothes, I head to the gym and we're warming up before Mr. Darrell arrives. There's a crowd of people and I go over to see what's going on. I push my way to the middle of the crowd. I see Yzsa is signing someone's book, and they're taking pictures of him.

"Yzsa, why don't you have one of the girls be in the photo with you?" One of the kids say. Yzsa smiles, he spots me and pulls me next to him.

"Smile, you're getting your photo taken." One of the kids that had a camera said. I look clueless and cameras are clicking.

"Tell us Yzsa, is this your girlfriend?" One of the camera kids asked.

"Uh, no." He answers, then our teacher arrives and has no idea what's going on.

"What's going on?" Our teacher asks, and the cameras are lowering. No one answers and the gym is quiet.

"Put your cameras away so we can start." Mr. Darrell says, a little frustrated that no one answered his question. The cameras are put away and Mr. Darrell has us run laps around the whole gym. Yzsa is running fast, but not teleporting. Everyone is behind him including me. I feel like I am going to run out of breath but I keep on running. Mr. Darrell has us do other exercises and then class is dismissed. I change back into my uniform. Yzsa follows me to my locker. I'm surprised there isn't a crowd following him.

"Hey Yzsa," I said, as I get my backpack out.

"Hi," He said back, watching me pack up my books.

"Um, Ryuichi is going over by your house tonight, so he can tell you about the contest." He announced.

"Oh, okay." I reply back.

"See you around." He said and was gone. I head home and start getting ready to go to work. I read the first chapter of Titanic and then I look at my watch. It's time for me to head to work, I head out, locking my house. As I am walking on the sidewalk I hear a car coming up from behind me and I look behind me, it's Ryuichi.

"Need a lift?" He asks me. I smile and I go around the car to the passenger seat.

"Thanks for taking me to work." I thank him.

"No problem." He answers.

"So, I heard that there's a contest that Hatesth and Yzsa told me about." I said. "Can you tell me what the contest is about and why I'm in it?" I ask.

"I can't, the contest has too many details for me to tell you and we don't have enough time." He explains to me.

"It's the reason why I'm going to tell you tonight, when you get off work." He says. We soon arrive to my work. He goes to the back of the restaurant and drops me off. I wave my hand goodbye to him and I head inside. As soon as I get inside I'm busy. We have a lot people coming in the restaurant and we get a little behind. Makenzie, a few other waiters and I are everywhere ordering from table to table. Soon things start to slow down and we're able to have a little break.

Around five pm we got busy but not too busy.

It soon became eight and it was quiet, only a few people were eating.

Two hours later.....

We're wrapping up things here, I'm putting the dishes away, Makenzie, and another waiter named Hara are wiping the tables. Mr. Henson already locked the front doors and exit doors. The other waiters already went home since there wasn't much to wrap up.
