I trust that you will survive.

After everything that happens you will make it through.

It began on that dammed day. You know the one. When all the stars fell and the world ceased to function. I was 16 when it happened.

"Alice, it's time for school!", Mom was calling from downstairs. It was my first day of a new school, the third one this year, and I was nervous. Not for the normal reasons like potentially being bullied, or being new, or starting half way through the year (again) but because of that one thing that I won't mention for plot reasons (I know, I hate it when authors do it to but, I gotta keep you interested). I grabbed my bag and headed downstairs, preparing myself for mom's horrible cooking that I had to eat for breakfast.

"Alice, I made breakfast"

"Thanks Mom it looks great, but I should really get going". It did not in fact, look great. I headed out the door, off to school, without knowing what was coming soon.

On my way I picked up some generic breakfast from some shop along the way, and took out my phone, for a map, obviously. I walked down the street for 25 minutes till I arrived at my destination 'Riverside Rehabilitation Academy'. It was the only school within 50 miles that would accept my ass after the shit I pulled.

In one day I pulled the fire alarm 3 times and spiked the principals coffee with laxatives before an assembly. I was expelled, but went out an absolute legend.

I stood for a moment outside of the 3 story gray brick building that closely resembled a prison and thought to myself 'am I really about to go here for the next six months?' (Spoiler: the answer is no). And headed inside to accept my fate.

The first thing I noticed was the surprisingly strong structure. Even with my untrained eye, I could notice that this building was well constructed. Could this have been a sign of how bad the students were, yes. Or it could just mean the architect thought it would be funny if the school could survive a nuclear blast. Who knows.

I walked into my first class and was introduced to one of the most annoying people I have ever met. You know the type of person, short, glitter pens, multicolored hair ect. By the way, her name was Lily. I was forced to sit next to her. I'm unsure of what to do as she leans over and whispers.

"Hi~"

"... hi (with disgust), do you need something?"

"If you need help on the work you can ask me"

I am somewhat take back by this, at the last few schools I went to people just bullied me. Now someone was being nice (oh god past me is becoming a trope ;-;), it was unexpected.

"Huh? No. I don't need help."

The rest of the day continued somewhat normal, until the second to last period. My thoughts so far we're such:

Lily: Annoying, weird, only friend

Mrs. Anderson (Math): Bastard, gives too much homework

Mr. Clark (History): Spineless, too much busy work

Ms. Robert (Art): Sexy, mid besides that

Mr. Lee (Science): Decent, good teacher, made explosion

Mr. Hyll (Gym): Pedophile, he is so weird and crusty

Mrs. Taylor (English): not sure, the rest of the class is doing a project

Sr. Marchil (Spanish): not sure, still in English

I looked up from my phone to the rest of the class still writing, some bullshit project I missed from joining the school late. I leaned over to Lily and whispered

"What you writing?"

"Like I said before I'm still planning, probably something with plants"

Plants? I will never understand her. It was at that moment something happened. The lights began to flicker and the ground lightly shook. It grew in intensity until the whole building shook with terrifying strength.

When it stopped there was a glowing menu floating in front of me.
