"Do you need anything else Zack" said Zhao's mom.
"No thanks Mrs Ming" I said.Our school is in what remain of a country that was called Turkey a long time ago, now called,
Sakin. That means calm in Turkish.Almost every school of what remains of the world is there because in Sakin things are calmer and better.
That's why we travel to school by TraSub, it only takes like two minutes to takes us to Sakin, and to our school.I live in a city that was once New York,
now it's Nuwe Lewe, that means new life in African.
Enoménos was created here, in Nuwe Lewe, that's why many people came here searching for a new beginning, a new life.
Just as Zhao's family. They're from a country named China, the name hasn't changed, because it's the only country that still has their beliefs and culture intact, so the name stayed.After the TranSub almost kill me and my friends, we went to Zhao's house, because it is the closest one, and because we couldn't get anywhere else, I mean our school is very, very far to go walking.
So we told Zhao's mother that the TranSub wasn't working very well today, and we were going to take another capsule in an hour or so."What are you thinking?" said Maddy interrupting my thoughts.
"In a lot of things, Maddy.
I just can't believe we almost die today" I told her.
I took her hand and gave a hug, a big hug.
She kissed me slowly, and then Luke came to the room interrupting our kiss.
"Zhao's mother said that we have to go, the next capsules are going to..." Luke stopped suddenly when he saw us kissing.
"Oh, I interrupt something" said Luke
"Of course you do, you always do" said Maddy starting to get a little angry.
"Sorry, I will go, but we only have five minutes" said Luke already going out of the room."Zack" Maddy said looking at me with that beautiful blue eyes, but something was wrong, it was her look, she has a sad look, like the ones people have when they're about to cry.
"Hey, everything is going to be fine" I said with a low voice.
"You know it will not, Zack" Maddy said now crying.
"That incident that happened with the capsules wasn't an accident, you know Enoménos will not let something like that happen" said Maddy still crying.
"We should ask them why the capsules exploded" I said trying to give an idea.
"Yeah, maybe, but we should go to school first, and then we will see" she said.
I know why Maddy doesn't like very much the idea of talk to Enoménos about the accident, it's because she would have to see her parents, because her parents are in charge of things like this.
Finally we got out of Zhao's house."I'm afraid" said Cody.
We were already in our capsules,waiting for the TranSub to start.
"There's nothing to worry about Cody"
said Maddy.
And with that last sentence the transfer process began.
You are probably asking what do you feel while you are separated in billions of particles.
Well you don't feel anything, because it's like you're sleeping.
In seconds we were reform again."Come on, we will be later than we already are" Maddy said already running.
Finally we were entering to the school. Finding a good excuse of why we are so late isn't easy.
"See ya" said Cody. "I have tttto go to my class"
No one answered.
We were a little busy trying to avoid all the teachers who passed in front of us.After running in the halls for 10 minutes. We finally arrived to our classroom. I saw our schedule and realized that we were in maths, my maths teacher hates me.
Last year I broke her chip, by throwing an eraser that landed on her head.
It was very funny, but Mrs Smith didn't think that, she doesn't had the money to pay for the reparation, so she is crazier now than she already was."So look at that, its Zack and his friends" said Mrs Smith sarcastically.
"Sorry, Mrs Smith we are a little late " said Maddy with a low voice.
"If you can say that three hours and forty five minutes with ten seconds is a little late..., yes you are late" she said.
There was a big silence after Mrs Smith comment, but she was touching her head, like if something was making her uncomfortable, but then she finally said:
"Very well, now.... Ahhhhh, stop it!"Mrs Smith screamed.She grabbed a pencil that was in her desk and she tried to stab me on the stomach. I twisted her hand , so that the flying pencil that once was for me, she received it.
"Ouch" she said painfully with a strange robotic voice.
"We have to get out of here" said Maddy.
Mrs Smith raised her bloody hand and said:
"You will never going to get away from me... from us.
Good luck. We will see each other soon" she said with a really creepy smile.
Suddenly her eyes started to glow, she said something really strange I couldn't understand and then she just passed out.
Maddy took my hand and started running, my others friends were already out of the classroom.
