            “Nick, why are you here?” I asked while I hugged him, hard.

            “Oww, not so hard. I’ll tell you if you let me go.” He said.

            “Fine, but let’s talk about it on the way upstairs.” I looked at both of them, and they shook their heads yes. I grabbed Nicks’ arm as we headed up the stairs.

            “Skii, do you remember, when we were at your house practicing? It was when you were 9 and I was 15?”

            “Yeah but what does that have to do with you being here?” I asked as we got to the top of the stairs, and into this grand looking hallway. “Wow” I said under my breath.

            “All of it has to do with me being here. We made a promise back then that I would move to where ever you move to in the future.”

            “But it was when I was 9. Hey Lilie which lockers’ mine?”

            She smiled and said “Well your locker number is 357, so it should be this one.” She walked down the hall by a sign that says library. “Yeah it’s this one.” She turned the locker knob a few time and then the locker opened like a door. “Come on the locker won’t bite.” Motioning us over by her.

            I slowly walked over there, while pulling Nick along. When we got there and looked in everything was black. Lilie laughed at the look on my face and reached in the locker and flipped a switch. I was shocked because the locker had lights, but what shocked me more was the fact that the locker was actually a room. The room was black, red, and blue; that had strobe lights on the ceiling that changed colors. The room was also furnished with a TV and a chair and couch.

            “Wow, is this really a locker? And if it is, why is it my locker?” I asked as I walked in.

            “It’s your locker because, you are special.” Said Lilie.

            “How am I special exactly? And won’t the kids that don’t have lockers up here think it’s weird to see someone coming out of a locker, when they go to the library to turn back a book?” I asked as I sat down on the couch.

            Nick followed me and sat by me on the couch, while Lilie shut the locker door.

            Lilie sat in the chair and said, “There’s a library down stairs for the people down stairs. This library up here is stocked way differently than theirs. And I don’t know how you’re special exactly, but that is where you and I go to the library for class.”

            “Oh; wait; what are you talking about? Why would we have class in the library?”

            “Calm down Skii, I will be there to. Every time, and every day.” Nick said reassuringly.

            “That doesn’t answer my question. Lilie?” I looked over at her questionably.

            “Well it’s different than your usual class. This class tests’ you on what you know and what you can do.”

            “What kind of class is that?” I asked.

            “You’ll just have to see, when the hour comes.” She nonchalantly said.
