The Munks of DreadHall Collage 2018

First Day as Seniors

Chi-Chi: I can't believe this. I'm finally a senior.

Chi-Chi Starmunk said as she looked in the mirror. Only she was speaking to no one. Chi-Chi was alone in her bedroom, but she was used to it. She didn't have many friends in middle school. Even in her family she felt alone, being an adopted daughter. While the parents say they love them both equally, she could sense that they loved her sister Katie Starmunk more. Though any family is better then no family. Chi-Chi was just happy to take anyone she could get. She exited her room to see Katie was already awake, a spearmint tea in hand.

Chi-Chi: Morning Katie! Ready for your first day as a senior?

Katie: I sure am. You don't look like you are.

Chi-Chi: What do you mean?

Katie: You're wearing the same poka dot dress that you've been wearing since year 6.

Chi-Chi never felt right in any outfit, the poka dot dress was the one that made her feel the least uncomfortable. She always felt like a part of her was missing, she didn't know who Chi-Chi Starmunk really was. She was hoping to find that sense of identity during her senior years. It was an inner struggle she had for years and wasn't about to let Katie find out.

Chi-Chi: Umm...well...I haven't grown in the past few years. If my old clothes still fit, what's the point in buying new ones?

Katie: So you don't look like a child.

Mina: Ok girls. Let's not fight today.

The girls heads turned to see their mother, Mina, and their father, Morton enter the room. They were both dressed and ready for their own jobs, but seemed a bit more in a rush to get ready. The girls gave each other the same look, it was almost like a telepathic thought that said "They spent too long watching the news and drinking coffee again.". Though the girls fought sometimes and were quite different in their personalities, they still had these moments where it really felt like they were close sisters.

A blue toy car pulled up to the front of Dreadhall Collage. Chi-Chi and Katie are in awe at the senior campus area. It was an area they weren't aloud in previously and had heard a tone of stories about. The seniors were almost a different breed of people then the juniors and got into some wild adventures, some that the girls wished to see and others they wanted to stay out of in fear of their own lives. Either way, it was bound to be an exciting 3 year adventure.

Morton: Good luck girls!

Morton waved to the girls, thankfully not loud enough to embarrass them. He had gone through that embarrassment with his mum and didn't want his daughters to suffer though that too. Especially since they all knew how ruthless DreadHall can be. The school name reflected the social aspect pretty accurately. The school work was ok and the teachers were mostly nice, but it's had some of the most horrible students attend. Their actions have given the school a negative reputation and at worst, their impact can last years after they graduate. One of the students who wanted to do that had her first day of senior school too. But she had already been planting the seeds for school domination throughout her junior years. But now as a senior, she was in the perfect position to dominate the school with her anti-LGBT+ philosophy. This girl happened to be Chi-Chi and Katie's first encounter as they approached their lockers.

Chi-Chi: Oh no...it's Tahlia.

Tahlia Pintana. She had been teasing the girls throughout primary and middle school, however it was nothing compared to her treatment of the LGBT+ students. She was currently standing over a chubbier chipmunk wearing a pink jumper. Her brother Elliot James emerged from next to her and pinned the pink chipmunk against the lockers. Having brothers really helped with her domination plans, since physically, she wouldn't stand a chance in some of these fights. She had two but one of them, Jacob James, was still in middle school. Next year, when he would be a senior, she planned to recruit him too. Chi-Chi and Katie wanted to stand up for the pink chipmunk but with Elliot there, they knew they weren't going to be doing much, so they kept walking, heads hung low.
