Miran dragged her feet as she walked to the main doors of the school. She didn’t want to go to school that day. Phoenix was trying not to mope about now that Ken was transferred, and with Triston at the Academy. She carried her book bag over her shoulder and she was glad that she only had a couple of classes that day.

Raye was also struggling as she all but dragged her twin siblings along behind her. It was their first day at the new school and already there had been arguments between Koray and Celene and between Koray and Raye that morning about going to school.

She rounded the corner and almost tripped over the slender brunette who was standing just outside the school door. “oh sorry” she said as she shoved the twins around the girl.

Miran looked up and flushed. “Sorry” She said to the redhaired girl and the two brunette children with her. “My mind was elsewhere.” She paused. “You are new here right?”

Raye nodded. “yeah.” She studied the brunette. She wore what Raye considered ‘upperclass’ clothes. The brunette was wearing a dark green silk blouse and a black pencil skirt with low black heels. Raye felt dowdy in her dark blue jeans and forest green button down. “I am Raye Crosby-Triannth”

Miran smiled. “Miran Lalor.” She held out a hand to Raye.

Raye shook it, noting it was well manicured.

Miran looked at the twins. “Hi.” She said to the younger pair.

“My siblings, Koray and Celene Jerricho.”

The different last names had Miran raising an eyebrow.

“Half siblings.” Raye said casually. “But as annoying as biological siblings.” She paused. “Lalor… are you the captain’s daughter?”

Miran laughed “No, she is my older sister.” She glanced at the door. And gave a sheepish smile. “oh”

The woman who stood there, was slender with long wavy brown hair and her eyes were almost teal in color. She wore, black slacks, black ankle boots and a dark gold button-down shirt. “Well if the four of you have finished your conversations, it might be best that you get to class?”

Miran ducked her head with a soft “Yes Ma’am.”

“Names?” the teacher asked.

“Miran Lalor – Grade 11.”

“Raye Crosby-Triannth – Grade 11”

Koray took Celene’s hand and looked at the teacher “Koray and Celene Jerricho – Grade 6”

The teacher nodded. “Koray and Celene, Your teacher will be Miss Hardhold. And your classroom is down that hall” She indicated the hall.

Then she turned to the two older girls. “I am Miss McDougall, I am your homeroom teacher. This way.” She turned and walked off.

Miran watched as Raye hugged her siblings and sent them off, before stepping up beside Miran and they followed Miss McDougall down the short hall to their homeroom.

This was going to be interesting.
