Chapter 7

Michael's P.O.V.

I hear the bell ring when I head to the restroom. "Why would Lane do this? She was so nice this morning." I said.

Door opens and closes

"Hello? Whos there?" said a boy. The boy walks up "Who are you?" I said. "My name is Steve. I saw you talking to John and Henry. Then I saw you come in here, and I thought I'd introduce myself to you." said Steve. "Hi Steve, I'm Michael." I said. 2 minutes later I finished cleaning off my face and head. "So tell me about yourself." said Steve. "I just moved here with my parents from Boston." I said. "Ok." said Steve. "Well, who slammed your head in your food was it John, Henry, George, Amy, or Jane?" said Steve. "It was Lane." I said. "Lane would never do anything like that." said Steve. "What's the deal with them?" I asked. "I'll tell you later I don't want to be late for class." said Steve. "What class?" I asked. "Mr. Parks." said Steve. "I have him too." I said. "Sweet. Come on." said Steve.

------In Mr. Parks classroom------

Steve and I walk into the classroom. "Mr. Parks this is Michael. Its his first day." said Steve. "Nice to meet you Michael I'm Mr. Parks." said Mr. Parks. "Hi." I said. "You can sit next to Steve in the back." said Mr. Parks. We go sit in the back of the class. "Now, can you tell me what's the deal with John, Henry, and Lane. And who are George, Amy, and Jane." I said. "Ok. John, and Henry met in kindergarten. The 2 of them created the Vipers, and have been picking on kids, and beating them up ever since. Then one day John and Henry decided that they needed more people to help them pick on kids." said Steve. "Ok. What about Amy, Jane, and George?" I asked. "Amy, and Jane are best friends. They met each other in 1st grade. Together the both of them liked to be mean to people and beat up whoever talked about, or bumped into them. John, and Henry saw them in action and asked the 2 of them to join them." said Steve. "What about George, and Lane?" I asked. "John, Henry, Amy, and Jane met George in 3rd grade. The 4 of them saw George beat up kids and asked him to join the Vipers." said Steve. "What about Lane?" I asked. "Lane was one of those kids who is always quiet. She was always by herself writing in a journal or listening to music. She was kind to everyone." said Steve. "How did she meet her friends?" I asked. "One day in 5th grade George was playing basketball by himself when he saw Lane sitting by herself. He introduced himself and the others to Lane. Ever since the 6 of them have been known as the Vipers." said Steve. "But why did Lane join the Vipers if she was kind?" I asked. "George thought she had potential." said Steve. "But she was nice to me this morning, and during lunch she was like...like..." I said. "Like a Viper." said Steve. "Yes." I said. "Well, I don't know if its true. But I know someone whos in the Vipers English class, and he told me that her heard Lane's mom say that Lane's aunt died of a heart attack." said Steve. "So Lane wants to be a Viper so she won't think about her aunts death." I said.
