"New case." Chris says sliding a folder across the table.

I open the folder and go through it.

"Who's this?" I ask looking at the picture.

"Rue Bennet, age 17. Overdosed over the summer and nearly died. There's a new drug doing around East Highland High School and we believe she's friends with the dealer." Chris says.

"Get close to her and find out who he is. Then bring him in." Chris says.

"How am I gonna do that?" I ask.

"You're going to high school... again." Chris says.

I widen my eyes and he throws a backpack at me.

I graduated 3 years ago and my high school experience was not great. My social anxiety didn't let me make any my friends. While my older sister and brother were partying, I was at at home watching Family Fued with my parents.

"No! Why can't Gonzales do it?!" I say.

"Gonzales is 26 and has more gray hairs than my grandma. You're 21 and you can maybe pass as a super senior." Chris says.

"You're schedule and everything you need to know is in the folder. Don't blow your cover." Chris says.

I sigh and get up.

"Leave the gun. There's already enough gunfire in schools." Chris says.

I take my gun out of the holster and put it in his desk.

"This isn't fair." Someone says.

"Want to avoid another detention?" Mr Hayes asks.

"Fine." They say.

The office door opens and a girl walks out.

"This is Maddy. She'll be showing you around for the day." Mr Hayes says.

I nod and get up.

"Follow me, try not to get lost." Maddy says.

Maddy opens the door and I follow her out.

"Name?" Maddy asks.

"Y/n." I say.

"So be honest, how many years did you stay back?" Maddy asks.

"What?" I ask.

"I know damn well you aren't 18." Maddy says.

"You're a super-super senior." Maddy says.

"I'm 19. I stayed back a year." I say.

"Mhm, okay." Maddy says.

"Don't get in with the wrong crows and you'll be okay." She says.

"So I shouldn't be talking to you?" I ask.

"I'm the right crowd but the wrong people try to step on my toes. Stay on my good side and we won't have a problem." Maddy says.

I nod and she opens the door.

Time Skip

I go in the bathroom and look under the stalls. I take my phone out and call Chris.

"Captain K." Chris says answering the phone.

"I'm in." I say.

"Have you found Rue?" Chris asks.

"No but I met someone. She's seems popular so she might know Rue." I say.

"Okay, do whatever you gotta do to get her to trust you." Chris says.
