"Pri Lockheart?" My professor called out. I raised my hand as a quiet "here" came from my previously sealed mouth. As the professor continued to call roll, I took off my mom's black onyx ring and rolled it around my hands. Today is the first day of my freshman year at Buckingham High School For the Gifted. I have no real talents. I'm just smart, thanks to my sister, Karina, who tutored me. My long brunette hair fell in my face, but I really didn't care. I was just ready to go home. Just because I make good grades, everyone thinks I love school. Honestly, its the opposite. I hate school! I mean, I would rather be home in my garden. It's not what you think, really. I use herbs to calm myself from the stress of being a student. It works very well actually.
Anyway, its the first day and my teacher hands out a 3 page test. I scream on the inside, remembering I had summer homework. I looked over the questions and used the method Karina taught me. I only answered questions I instantly knew, then used the info from those questions to answer the others. Soon enough, I finished the test. I turned it in and looked around. My homeroom teacher's classroom is boring. I then pulled out a pen and doodled on my arm. Just my luck, someone backed up and bumped into my desk, ruining my doodle. I took a deep breath and just rolled my sleeves down. My teacher gave us each a syllabus and then dismissed us.
The rest of the day was just as bad. In my second class someone spilled soda on me, in my third class my phone fell and got cracked, in fourth my teacher decided she hated me, and in fifth my teacher decided to give us an "entrance exam". Finally I leave the school. I start to head to my home. Just when I think this terrible day is over, I notice a bright light. My phone is ringing. I don't recognize the number...do I answer it? I'm alone in my neighborhood, so why not? I swiped to the right, answering the call. "Hello?"
"Is this Pri Lockhart?"
"Depends. Why do you need to know?"
"Ms.Lockheart, you've been selected as a charmee of the SMC."
"SMC? Charmee?"
"Society of Magic Charmers. Pyro will tell you more."
"Pyro?!"
"Head to your home dear."
"I'm scared to now..." They hung up before I could say anything else. Following orders, I walked home. When I got to my room, I saw something I would never forget.
