Your mission:
Complete the story...
"You" are the main character.
You are 14 years old and attend John Radley Middle School in Winchester Park, Pennsylvania. You are a new student and today is your first day in the new school.
Your mom brought you to this ivy covered brick building without giving you any breakfast. You already met the vice principal, Mrs. Patton, and now you are walking down the hall to your homeroom class.
Mrs. Patton knocks on the door and Ms. Sheridan says something in what sounds like a foreign language. You are then directed to sit behind a rather large student she refers to as Jubal.
"You may sit behind Jubal for now until a proper seat is arranged."
You take the seat behind Jubal and spend the entire hour of history without a glimpse at the green board. Jubal's head is in the way and you catch a few words about "Civil War" and some "Opequon Creek". This gets your imagination working and you wonder what it would be like living in 1864.
You could hear the horses and feel the dust from the galloping Calvary. In your imagination you are in the battlefield. You hear a trumpet call. The commander's face looks so much like your teacher Ms. Sheridan. She is standing right above you.
You open your eyes. It is Ms. Sheridan. She asks you,
"Have you heard any of what I have been telling you?"
You are not sure if you should tell her the truth that it is really Jubal’s big head blocking you from seeing the board or if you should make up some excuse.
In your hesitation Ms. Sheridan asks you,
“Let me rephrase my question. Why was the Shenandoah Valley so important to the union in 1864?”
So many names crossed through your mind…
Was it Kershaw or Robert E. Lee? Certainly, you could say something intelligent.
You just froze. Why was everything blank? You have no idea.
Ms. Sheridan then adds,
“You will see me after class.”
Jubal turns his head and grins. This day is not turning out to be the greatest day on earth. On top of that your stomach churns releasing a Gremlin like noise a little louder than you had expected.
Ms. Sheridan looks disturbed,
“Do you have something to say to us all?”
Just then the bell rings. Everyone is gone out the door but you.
You still have to meet Ms. Sheridan “after class”. She gives you the talk about paying attention and the “first day of school”. She also says you are going to be late for Algebra so she will continue the conversation after school with you in detention at 3:10 PM.
It is 3:00 PM. You have just finished P.E. class. You wonder if you should just go home or if you should visit Ms. Sheridan’s classroom for detention. After all she is your homeroom teacher and probably will not forget that she has something more to tell you.
