I'd say it all started when my friend Aurora grabbed my shoulders and told me, "we have to run. Forget everything and anything you think you knew about the Greek gods. I already told your mom. Trust me. I'll explain later."

Was I on board with my crazy psycho friend?

Hell yeah!

Well maybe I should explain first.

Okay see, so it was a bright sunny afternoon right? Mid April, spring break was only a couple weeks away. Everyone was excited to sit at home and eat while binge watching netflix. I was ever so innocently eating my cardboard school pizza for lunch. All of a sudden the principal pulled me out because of my "wrong doing". But I ACTUALLY didn't DO anything this time. There was a new spray paint design added to the collection in the teacher parking lot, but it wasn't me. Check the tapes. Call my lawyer. I didn't do it, I swear.

She pulled me into her small cramped office that was surprisingly blank. Her desk consist of only a few things, a picture of her and her family, stationary, tissues, and her work computer. She tapped on her laptop before leaving the room to receive her papers from the printer. As soon as she turned the corner I stood up and jiggled the 3rd drawer from the bottom on the left of her desk. Cha-ching! It opened with a small click. The drawer was broken so if you jiggled it enough the lock would eventually wear out and unlock itself. Didn't make much sense to me, but do I look like a physics major to you? Anyways, I looked into the holiest drawers of all drawers from heaven, the candy drawer. I popped a couple Hershey kisses into my mouth before she walked back in. Her cheap ass perfume filled the air like the plague. I gave her my sweet innocent smile (note the word innocent). She tapped the papers on her desk to align them. Her pastel pink button up top was loose to her body and she wear black work pants. Her flats covered her hideous feet and her nails were colored green. Her blonde hair was pinned up to look like Betsy Ross sowing the American flag and wore lip stick that matched her shirt.

"So I bet you are wondering why I called you all here today?" She said laying her papers down and admiring how perfect they looked. I looked around the room, "Yes... all of us are wondering why. Especially Joann over there. Can't hold in her shit she is so excited." She gave me a warning glance before continuing, "I hope you know you didn't do anything wrong... For once," she mumbled. I sat up straight and dusted off my blue jeans as if I was getting award. I was ready for my speech. I would like to thank the academy, and side walks from keeping me off the streets. Also to mom and dad *wipe tear and walk to center stage* for giving birth to this work of art. Thank you Jesus, for making all my homies who helped me here today. She continued, not letting me do so anyways, "We have found that you are actually something else, yet quiet special and still... slightly problematic." I gave her a confused look. She stood up and walked over to close the door. On her way back she grabbed the other chair and tried to hit me over the head.

"I THOUGHT YOU SAID I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG FOR ONCE!" I put my arms up to protect me and caught the chair, "this ain't cool my dude." I pushed the chair off of me and to my side when Aurora ran in. She grabbed my arm and ran out of the school. She jumped into a van and yelled for us to go, "my mom told me not to go into sketchy vans." As I buckled up I saw the driver. He was covered head to toe in eyes, "WOAH!" I yelled. The driver turned some of his eyes towards me. Aurora grabbed my shoulders, "We have to run. Forget everything and anything you think you knew about the Greek gods. I already told your mom. Trust me. I'll explain later." I stood there in shock looking from her left eye to her right, which eye do I look at?

"Uh... Umm.. eye eye captain."
