It was an ordinary day, an ordinary school, an ordinary life, and your ordinary couple of kids. The only unordinary thing was what happened. I’m sure you’re expecting me to start from the beginning. But I’m sure it’ll make you more agitated if I start in the middle of the story. Kidding! I have four best friends. Liza, Katy, Reece, and Ryan. I was driving to school, with Ryan and Katy in the back seat with me. They’re Twins. I’m closest with Ryan but Reece and Liza are closest with Katy. Anyways, we got to school and I waved to Katy and Ryan’s Mom ( Mrs. Ruthy ). I head to homeroom after meeting up with my other two best friends at the door. Ms.McGee went on and on about how we needed to start returning homework on time. I knew that didn’t mean me, so I tuned her out by popping in my headphones and listening to “Rocky Road”, My favorite Band. A few songs in, I realized Ms. McGee was starting to write “GOOD MORNING” in all caps on the board, so I took out my headphones and sort of paid attention. She says the same things every morning, honestly. “ Good morning students, welcome to fifth grade.” ( Which is insane because we’re halfway through the year.. )“And that is how different points of view can change the main idea..” “RING BRING RONG BRONG RINGGGGGG”. We all gather our books and walk to our lockers to get our math supplies. This is my second favorite part of the day. My first favorite is lunch, but I love Mrs. Phifer. She’s so sweet! I think about yesterday’s math lesson and how well I think she did of explaining our topic as I’m walking to my locker. When I get there I hum the song I made to remember my passcode. “ Fave number, 2 down, 1 up, then all around”. 6459. As I swiftly unlock the locker and grab my math supplies, the lights flicker. That means that the teacher is going to make an announcement. So I turn to the front of the hall where the light switch is. While the lights are still flickering, no one is at the end of the hall. The power goes out. And that’s when I start hearing the whispers.
