Westwood High

Chapter 1

My whole life I had been taught to blend in. But the second I walked into Westwood High, I knew that wasn't an option.

My name is Opal Daniels and I work for YSA (Young Spy Academy), well I worked....

I was let off a couple weeks ago because the head of YSA decided that I needed to be a sixteen year old girl for a while, and not the spy I actually was. But this school was the complete opposite of the Academy. At this school, in order to blend in I would have to stand out.

***********
The school was way busier then the Academy. Everyone was in the same hallway, doesn't this place have any hidden passages?

"Ew! Watch where you're going!"

I looked up to see a tall skinny, blonde girl with hazel eyes and pale skin. She was wearing a dress that in my opinion was way too short for school and she had a desginer hand bag the was at least $500. She would have been really pretty, if it weren't for all the makeup. Before I could react two other girls with the same desginer hand bags showed up.

She spoke again, "Oh my gosh girls, did you see what she's wearing?!"

The girl said it as if she had mean't it to be a whisper but it clearly was not.

The bell rang and the trio walked off.

"Looks like you just met the plastics," I turned and saw a short sweet looking girl. I could tell by her facial expression that she was afraid of them.

"They not popular?"

"Oh no, they are very popular that's the problem. The one in the middle is Savannah Wild, she's queen bee around here. The other two are her minions Kiera and Kylie Kooper. Oh, I'm Sidney Wood, by the way."

"Opal Daniels"

"Nice to meet you Opal! What's your first class?"

I smiled to myself as I replied "I have English with Mr. Toler."

"Sweet! I heard he's really cool! I have Math with Mrs. Riggs. It's on the way, I'll walk you there!"

Any normal girl would have been excited that she had already made a new friend, but I wanted to know more about Sidney. Sadly I was going to have to wait until after school to do my research on her.

Sidney was so wrong about Mr.Toler, he was so boring. I can't belive kid's were having a hard time with this. Everyone at the Academy had learned this stuff in grade school. But here they were, a whole bunch of eleventh graders having a hard time finding the root word of linguistices. I rose my hand as the other kids in the room looked on as though Mr. Toler was speaking German (which by the way I learned in first grade).

" Yes, Ms.Daniels"

"The origin of the word linguistices is Latin, it means language, and root origin is linguas"

Everyone looked at me as if I was from another planet, though I guess in a way I was.

"Correct Ms. Daniels."

** ** ** ** **

When class was finally over Mr. Toler called me over.

"Ms. Daniels, I must say I am very impressed with your knowledge of Latin."

"Thank you sir."

"I understand that the first day must be very stressful. I'm sure the teachers here are very different the ones at RiverRoad..."

"Where?"

"RiverRoad, your old school?"

Oh right the academy gave me a fake back story, guess I should have gone over it better.
