It was ridiculous that Astronomy had to be thought so high up. Sure, some smarty pants would say the closer to the sky the better but logically why go so high up when the sky was so vast? Could you not see the sky wherever you went? So, why the need to make students climb staircase after staircase until their legs cramped and they had to crawl the last floor and have their GOOD FRIEND GREER MCKENSIE ignore their pleas for aid? WHY?

Not that any of that had happened to Lulu Patterson. She didn't suffer from leg cramps because she was INVINCIBLE. Whoever thought otherwise deserved to be forced bogeys, that's what.

Lulu stood at the door, blocking the doorway. She regretted the fact that the door was open, leaving no room for a dramatic entrance. Unable to go forward as planned, the girl stomped her way into the classroom and dropped to sit cross-legged next to Greer. "Stop talking, Greer," hissed Patterson. "You abandoner! You have no right to speak."
