Sandy woke up one day to her two older brothers screaming at each other from the other room, their voices ringing in her ears. She slowly climbed out of bed and walked downstairs to her mom, who had already prepared a special pancake and toast breakfast." Good morning Sandy," her mom gestured for Sandy to sit down. " I have some important news to give you." Sandy tilted her head. " Yeah? What is it?"

Her mom tapped her claws on the table and took a deep breath, she knew she had to tell her. " Well, you see.." She paused for a second. " You're moving schools, Sandy" she said a little more quietly. " WHAT?" Sandy got up and banged her fists on the table. She thought for a moment and said," Wait.. What school?" Sandy calmed back down and turned her head towards her mom.

" It's technically an academy. there'll be tons different classes in the building, and I bet you'll have a great time!" Her mom cheerfully said to her. Sandy wasn't fully confirmed but she stayed calm. " Well, it can't be that bad.." She whispered to herself but loud enough for her mom to hear. "That's the spirit! Now get ready, I'll wait for you outside", She handed Sandy a white blue uniform to put on. Of course she had to follow the proper dress code, or she would get yelled at on just the first day. Her mom grabbed keys from her purse and stood outside with Sandy's brothers.

Sandy ran into her room and put on the uniform her mom gave her. She was fine with following the school dressing rules but... The outfit was so basic. Almost every school setting contained a white and blue top, a blue skirt and a red tie. But she would have to get used to it. No matter what. She pulled the clothes on, tied her shoes and ran out her bedroom door. Sandy could hear sirens and cars passing by, like there was some kind of... accident.

Sandy stared out the car window. She liked her old school a lot but knew this academy was probably better for her. Also, who knows, maybe it could be the best place she's ever been to. She lost her train of thought when the car radio turned on and blasted music through the car speakers. "Mom? ..What's this academy gonna be like?" She asked, but there was no response. I guess she'd have to find out herself.

"Almost there!" Her mom exclaimed. Sandy rolled her eyes and opened her backpack zipper. There wasn't much in it. It contained some notebooks and pencils, the usual. "We're here! Come on Sandy, put on your backpack!" Sandy stepped out of the car and looked up at the huge building. It had to be at least seven or eight floors tall, because her neck would probably break if she tried to see the top.
