She stood there for ait all in For a moment she had a flashback of a different school and a different time She quickly snapped out of it when she felt a tap on her shoulder

"Hey there!" Dana said

"Dana! Hi!" Rachel said

"Didn’t think you were serious, but here you are! In the flesh!" Dana said

"What do you mean?" Rachel asked

"Well, I’m just surprised to see you," Dana said

"Really? I just saw you a day ago," Rachel said

"Maybe it feels like a day to you!" Dana answered

"Uer Rach," Dana said

"Listen, I don’t knohat you’re talking about I was here Friday and we hung out Saturday night I think we did anyway Not too sure, it’s kinda all a fog to ot separated right?"

"Rach, I wasn’t with you on Saturday night and you didn’t come to school last Friday You haven’t been here in almost two years!"

"Two years?" Rachel asked "Are you in on this, too?"

"In on what?" Dana asked

"This whole conspiracy about ," Rachel said "It’s like I’ Every time I talk to people they look ator that I’"

"Well…" Dana said

"Listen, D, I’et to class!" Rachel said

"What do you have first period?" Dana asked

"Math," Rachel said "With Mr Peterson"

"Alright, see you at lunch then," Dana said

Rachel walked towards her locker, which was located close to her first period math class As she approached the locker, she reached for the combination lock, and started to put her combo in It didn’t work She tried over and over, but it wouldn’t open

This is weird, she thought to herself

The second bell rang and she knew she had to get to class before she would be marked tardy She’d never been late to class ever and didn’t want to be counted as absent She had a perfect attendance record and didn’t want to blow it

When she walked into her first period class she was surprised to see that the class was full of underclassmen She looked around at the seats and they were all full, and soirl had taken up her seat She looked over at Mr Peterson who looked at her in disbelief

"Rachel? What are you doing back here?" Mr Peterson asked, with a stunned look on his face

"Um…I’m confused Aren’t I supposed to be in this class?" Rachel asked

"Rachel, that o years ago You haven’t been here in a long tih"

"What?" Rachel asked She could hear the whispers going around in the classroos through in her head

"I think it’s best if you go to the main office and ask them for your new schedule," Mr Peterson said

"Uh Ok," Rachel said, feeling confused and out of it "Good idea!"
