Trent McGuire:August 15?! (gasped in horror) That's tomorrow!

Lyn Manchester:Okay, in case the city needs us during school hours-

Mallory Black:Which it will?

Lyn Manchester:We have to keep the communicators concealed at all times. Instead of ringing like they normally do, the communicators will vibrate to let you know if there's trouble. When that happens, excuse yourselves from the classroom and meet up outside the school. Try to keep a low profile.

Ezekiel Williams:What are we supposed to tell the teachers? put on an innocent face and raised his hand Oh teacher, may i be excused to go and save the city? Yeah, like that's ever gonna work.

Lyn Manchester:I don't know...Just tell them that you feel sick and have to go to the nurse. Or tell them that you have to use the restroom. You'll think of something. Well, school starts tomorrow. We could try it out and see how it goes on our first day i guess. And like Devanie said, it might not be so bad.

Berna Manchester:You know, home school is starting to look more intriguing.

Aeolus Rowan: Berna...Like Lyn and Devanie said, tomorrow may not be bad as it seems. Those kids only say mean stuff about you because they're insecure. They're jealous of you. Ain't that right Crispin?

Crispin Rivers:Please don't bring me into this.

Berna Manchester:What is there to be jealous of?! I suck! I'm the most worthless and pathetic freak of the school, and i've been that way for the past 4 years. You've never had to deal with what i'm going through. You don't understand; you'll never understand!
