MSP Academy

Chapter 3 Welcome to MSP Academy

John stepped off the bus with Dave right behind him. John gapped at the large school before him. It was a lot larger than his previous school. What was amazing was that the school consisted of six buildings. From what he had heard the school buildings made the shape of a house if you looked at from above, but he didn’t really believe it. Signs were posted near and on the front door that told students to report to the northern auditorium for an assembly. John decided that it would be best if he placed some of his extra stuff in his locker. He excused himself from his friends and followed locker numbers until he found locker 413. He smiled at the number. April thirteenth was his birthday, he wondered what the odds of that were happening. He quickly spun the combination lock and opened his locker. As he was about to put stuff in his locker someone shoved him from behind. John turned and saw a blue clad girl running down the hall. She turned towards him as she ran.

“Out of the way idiot!” She yelled at him. John stood there surprised at the girl, she had been the one to run into him. Why was she mad? Another person shoved John aside. This one definitely a guy. John caught a glimpse of tan skin, green shirt, and grey pants.

“Vriska wait for me!” He shouted with love as he ran past. John started to wonder what kind of crazy place MSP Academy was.

As John placed the last of his supplies in his locker he made his way towards the auditorium where his friends were seated and waiting for him.

“What took you so long?” Dave asked. “The assembly is about to start.”

“Sorry,” John sat down next to his friend. “Some girl ran into me and then some guy after her ran into me. This place is weird.”

“Was she cute?” Rose peered at John.

“What?” John gasped.

“Was the girl that ran into you cute?” Jade joined in.

“I’m actually dying to know as well.” Dave smirked.

“Come on guys.” John groaned. “I didn’t even get a good look at her.” That was half true.

John had gotten a glimpse of her blue eyes and lips that drew every ounce of attention to it.

“Besides she called me an idiot so I doubt our first impressions went well.”

“Dang that’s a shame.” Dave sighed. “For a second I thought my little John had finally grown up and gotten himself a girl for himself.”

“Truly a shame.” Rose nodded.

“What is this? Pick on John hour?” John complained. His friends laughed just until the

lights dimmed to announce that the assembly was about to begin. A light revealed a podium with the guy John had saw standing on it.

“Good morning students,” The strange man said. “My name is Andrew Hussie, you can call me Mr. Hussie. I am the principle here at MSP Academy. I would like to welcome all you freshmen to this wonderful school and congratulate all of our returning students. Lastly, before I let your vice principal take over I’d like to say something important.” He paused, adding the suspense and the student’s attention. John was on the edge of his seat. The principle opened his mouth. “VRISKA! I LOVE YOU!” He shouted. John nearly fell off his seat like some other students had done.

“SHUT UP YOU FREAK!” A voice yelled back.

“She totally digs me.” The principle grinned and walked away as a woman walked up to the podium.

“Thank you Mr. Hussie for those...uh...kind words. Hello students. I’m Vice-Principal Paint, but please call me Ms. Paint. Now I’d like to…” John tuned in and out of Ms. Paint’s speech as he wondered what kind of things would happen in this strange school.
