It was a beautiful day on the campus of George Washington Carver Preparatory Academy. The sun shone down on the enormous beige building with its elegant doorways leading into the old renovated mansion. The windows were decorated with flower pots filled with red roses. The whole building had an old feel to it. Every bush, tree, and shrub was snipped to perfection by the team of gardeners who arrived at the school every day. The inside was furnished with expensive furniture thanks to the money from the pricey tuition. All the desks were a normal size and had a little place to store your books. Hallways were lined with posters and anti-bullying posters. But they didn't make much of a difference.

To put it nicely, the social ladder is pretty much every man for themselves. At the top sat the jocks and cheerleaders. They pretty much got away with whatever they wanted. They could harass or hurt us as much as they wanted. I'm lucky I'm a girl so the worst that has ever happened to me was a couple nasty tweets. But I do feel bad for the rest of the misfits around here.

Amanda Potter, head of the cheerleaders. She can boss around any boy in the school with a swish of her blond straight hair. She's pretty normal height for 15. Amanda is like the general of the cheerleaders. They can't do much without her. But that's mostly because they're all idiots. Even though she's more of a dictator, at least she is better than some of the others on the team. Like Cindy. I can bet that she is the meanest, dirtiest, and sluttiest person in the entire school. All she's good for is hooking up with the captain of the basketball team, Brant.

So Amanda is pretty much the only decent one but only because of her best friend, Ian Dander. Ian is ... well... let's put it this way special. He's kind of a diva. Don't get me wrong, Ian's awesome. I love the way that he can express himself and doesn't care what anyone else thinks. Although, I'm not saying that other people don't care either. Ian has his fair share of bullies. Whether they call him "a queer" in the halls or push him in the cafeteria. I admire how he doesn't let that get to him. I wish I could be that way too. He definitely has a unique fashion sense. His short brown hair always has countless amount of hair products that I could never name. He has bright blue eyes that resemble the sky. Let me tell you what, the kid can accessorize like no other. Whether it's scarves, bracelets, or snazzy hats I always get a kick out of his new outfit every day.

Ian has another close friend that I know of. Her name is Molly Gerfunkel. Molly is the head of the drama club. She's pretty over dramatic as you can tell. She's kinda like Rachel Berry from GLEE but nerdier. She has glasses like Harry Potter and curly hair similar to Hermoine's in the first movie. But wow! Molly sings like an angel. She always gets the lead in the school musical. When she gets onstage and swings her hair while singing her solo song, every boy thinks they've found love. At least until they remember how much they hate her. It's really not fair though.

Oh I forgot to introduce someone. ME! My name is Jay Kape. I don't really participate like normal people. I don't join any clubs, play sports, or have friends. I'm not new here or anything. I just don't like other people here as you can guess. I have long black hair that falls low onto my back. I dyed sections of it red and decided to keep it that way. My ear has multiple piercings but I'm debating a belly button ring. The only accessory I EVER wear is my headphones.

I only have one class with Molly, Ian, and Amanda. And that is where our story begins...
