Waving in gratitude to Neala for the ride, I walked into school with a skip in my step on Monday. From Bellangame High to Spooner High to an underground compound . . . my life was on a declining plane of accommodations.

He wished me well on the botany project and reminded me to keep an eye out for poison oak. London and Savannah ran over when I got to my locker, wanting to know what had happened to me in Seataw. They’d looked everywhere, and their only clue that I might have left was one of Kitts’ friends saying that she thought she saw Adriel’s car leaving the square with a screech. Expecting these questions, Adriel and I had worked out a story in advance. I made my eyes round with shock and said, “You will never believe whom I ran into up there!” “Who was it?” Savannah asked.
