Adora woke up to the sound of an alarm blaring in her ear. She hit the snooze button on her phone and closed her eyes only to find out that she could not go back to sleep. She cursed under her breath and got out of bed. Walking into the bathroom, her eyes started to get used to the daylight and she looked in the mirror to see drool staining her cheeks and her long blonde hair sticking in different directions. She quickly washed her face and brushed through her hair before going downstairs. Taking two steps at a time, Adora went downstairs and headed to the kitchen. There, she saw her foster moms and foster sister.
"Morning Adora!" Spinnerella greeted the girl while washing some dishes.
"Morning Spinnerella," Adora replied to her foster mother grabbing a plate and putting some pancakes on it. "Morning Netossa." she said to her other foster mother as she passed her in the kitchen. Adora walked into the dining room where her foster sister Frosta was eating a large plate of pancakes. "That's a lot of pancakes for an eleven year old."
"And that's a lot of talking for someone who should shut their mouth." Frosta replied, stuffing a large forkful of pancakes into her mouth. Adora mocked her silently with a scrunched up face.
"Whatever nerd. You're the one who's gonna get fat." Adora walked to the seat next to Frosta and ruffled her short raven hair before sitting down. She started eating her pancakes and listened to the faint sound of her foster moms working in the kitchen and her foster sister scarfing down a large amount of pancakes. Adora started thinking about how she was glad she got this family for her foster family and started to tear up a bit. Before she started crying, Adora quickly finished her pancakes and went to rinse her plate in the sink.
"Are you excited for your first day of junior year?" Netossa asked while putting dishes away.
"Yeah, totally! Honestly I'm a little nervous, but I'm kind of used to the whole new school thing so I'm sure I'll do fine."
"Well that's good," Spinnerella said drying off her hands. "You can drive the Sedan to school since I'm off of work today."
"Thanks!" Adora replied retreating to her room. "I'm going to finish getting ready." Adora ran to her room and put on her uniform. She looked in the mirror and thought that her uniform looked boring so she added her favorite red bomber jacket and pulled her hair back into her iconic ponytail. She brushed her teeth and put on her shoes and quickly ran downstairs.
"Alright I'm off!" She yelled, taking the keys and exiting the house before she could get a reply. She hopped into the car and put the school's address into her phone. She drove while listening to music and got to school in a little over ten minutes. She parked in front of a building that displayed large bold letters that said 'GRAYSKULL HIGH.' She turned off the car she saw a bunch of kids walking toward the side of the building so she followed. As she was following the large crowd, she was stopped by a large motorcycle that zoomed past her and stopped in a parking spot that was gratified with something that Adora couldn't comprehend. She stood still with shock and watched as the person driving the motorcycle got off. They took off their helmet and long brown hair flowed down. The girl lightly shook her hair and exposed some ear piercings and even a nose ring. She was wearing a leather jacked that displayed a picture of a wolf and the words 'THE HORDE.' She put down her helmet and turned towards Adora. The girl looked Adora up and down, smirked, then walked away. Adora could feel her cheeks burning up and she swallowed down air. After a few moments of following the mysterious girl with her eyes, Adora went back to following the crowd. She entered the building and started to look around. She found out that she had no idea where anything was or where she was supposed to be going. She turned to look for someone that could help and was almost immediately greeted by a boy and a girl.
"Hey dude," the girl started, "are you lost?"
"Yeah, kind of." Adora nervously replied.
"You must be new here," the boy jumped in, "I'm Bow and this is Glimmer." Bow smiled pointing to the small girl. Bow was tall and skinny with tall hair and dark skin. Glimmer was short and had light pink hair that barely reached past her ears and she seemed to have small freckles that looked like sparkled on her face. They both seemed to be really friendly.
"Hey, I'm Adora." She said smiling back. She told them what room number she was supposed to be in and they told her that they could bring her. On the way to their destination, the three kids talked a bit and started bonding. They quickly made it to the class room and Adora waved goodbye to her newfound friends. 'This year should go by well.' Adora thought entering the classroom. Her thought was quickly debunked as she noticed that the mysterious girl from the parking lot was in her class and that the only seat left was next to her. She stood still for a few moments before swallowing her fear and sitting down next to the girl. Maybe if she just laid low then she would have nothing to worry about.
