   ♡Steve's POV
"-Hey! Wake up Steven!" What in the world..? "Captain Shmaptain!.. Ugh. Sorry."

"What the hell?" I said holding my cheek with my left hand. Whoever it is slapped me! "Language." Oh. My mom did that. "Anyways, get up honey school is in an hour!" She said in her loving voice as always."Oh. Sorry mom." I said slightly embarrassed. "It's no worries hun. Just worry about getting ready in time." She said that as she walked put of my door. God. I hope she made waffles today; her waffles are the best! Oh well time to change.

   I put on my classic button-up shirt that all my friends know me for and my jacket. I put on my pants, then socks, then my sport shoes. I walked up to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. Meanwhile, I think of the latest rumors of Wonder High. 'I think there was a rumor about a new student coming today. Hopefully they're nice and we could be friends.' I thought while finishing brushing my teeth and brushing my hair.

    I walk out of the bathroom and sit down on the barstool prepped for me. "Hey mom!" I say gleefully. "Oh. Hello Steven! I made your favorite today!" She says excitedly. "Waffles!" I say with my mouth basically turning into a water fall. "Oh that's what you like?" She said face tilting in confusion. I hang my head low until she speaks again. "I'm kidding, im kidding! Now get your waffle and head to class." She says sweetly. "Thanks mom!" I yell while grabbing my red, white, and blue backpack. "No problem! Stay out of trouble sweetie!" She says after me. "I will!" I get on the bus and see my friends. I sit next to Sam and wave at him kindly. I then wave to my other friends like Thor, Natasha, Clint, Tony, Sam, Scott and Bruce. They all return the friendly wave or smile except for Bruce who just gave me a shy wave.

   "Dude the rumors are true! Look new kid is right there!" Sam whisper-shouted as he pointed to a kid with his hood on and ear buds. His hoodie is red and blue and has black stripes on it. Looks like everyone is staring at him. I kind of feel bad for him. He seems remarkably short. He's sitting alone which most people would pity.  I just feel genuinely bad though. "Hah! Puny Parker is sad! He's such a wuss to do anything." Oh, Let me introduce you to the bully group. 'Hydra' is what they call themselves. They go around bullying one kid at a time for the whole year. I feel bad for the kid. Probably going to get bullied for the rest of his time here. I feel like I should stand up for him but my mom sai- "Leave the kid alone, Hydra." Thor said intimidating the group. Basically everyone admires Thor in this school. That is everyone who knows him--which is the while school.

   The kid shivered as he heard Thor yell at the bully group. He flinched then looked up at Thor and the test of us. "...S-sorry" He muttered loud enough for us to hear. His voice was lined with fear and anxiety as he looked at us. He had a bandage on his right cheek and looked adorable for a freshman. Everyone of us stared at him. I could tell he was on the verge of turning back anxiously due to the silence but Clint soon spoke up. "It's no problem kid. Hey, what's your na-" He was cut off by the bus driver yelling for everyone to get off. What a bad timing. Dang bus driver.

    The short kid ran off the bus into the school and disappeared in the crowd. He seemed to be dragging along a heavy backpack around that looked like he wouldn't be able to hold but who am I to judge?

     Everyone just started walking off the bus awkwardly after that incident. "That was a...strange kid." Natasha said. "Suprisingly short too." "Yeah. Maybe we should try and befriend him." I say while putting my stuff in my locker. I mean we don't even know his name but isn't it worth a shot? "For once I actually agree with you capsicle." Tony said. Everyone else agreeded and we left to the back of the school until the bell rings. We have like 30 minutes left anyways. We also decided to look for the kid later.

    "Hey who's that?" Scott says pointing to a figure under the cherry tree on the hill. She seemed to be holding something. A book. He was also holding a pencil and was writing in it. The kid turns to us and gently waves and we awkwardly wave back. How did he even see us? We're like more than 50 feet away from him. Oh well. Maybe he's writing in his journal or diary. Wait diary? Maybe we could catch him leave it there one day and look through it to find more about him. (Foreshadowing?)

    "Well that was akward." Sam said. Everyone else seemed to agree and they just went to the bleachers on the football field.  We all sat down on different sets of bleachers and just talked with each other. Bruce was talking with Tony and the rest of us were speaking about our weekend.

     "Something about that kid isn't right." Nat said, and we all now that she knows something is wrong because we thought the same.  "He seems...different." She said squinting looking closer at the short kid writing away in his book. "Yeah." Clint said agreeing with Nat. "He also seems to be the kid from earlier." He added. "How about we just make a whole plan to figure out what this kid is hiding because he's hiding something." Tony said sarcastically joining the conversation. "Great. It's settled. We all meet here during lunch and wait for the kid to come. Lunch is am hour long so we should have enough time to question him or atleast confront him." Nat said. "Let's just hope we're correct about our assumptions." I say. "It'd be akward if he's just a normal kid.." I say trailing off. "Yeah." Clint said. They all muttered or groaned as the bell rings and we each saw the kid running extremely fast inside. "Definitely hidingb something." Nat said. "Even I can't run that fast." I said.

   Man, we've got a mystery to solve.
