"Oligander!" "Switi!" "Oligander!!!" "Switi!!!" 
     This was all Patrick Higgle ever heard during lunch at the Academy of Arts For Misbehaved Children. After a while, it seemed to become quite tiresome and the library became a quick option for Partick to sneak off too. Every student at the Academy was an, of course, child who at one point in time, misbehaved. The Academy was large and confusing with all of its tunnels and passages and halls, of course; which meant the best of the best people would need to look over it. Just with Patrick's luck ( he was heading to the library, of course) he bumped into the one and only Mr. M.C. Oggle, the leader of the school. "Mr. Higgle?" He smiled while a large banner behind him titled, "WORK YOUR WORST? TIME TO BURST!", was being hung over the cafeteria doors. "And what exactly do you think your doing? Today's special was a tuna sandwhitch I believe. Correct?"  Patrick gulped, "Yes... s-s, sir. it sure was delicious!" Patrick turned around just to be grabbed again by Mr. Oggle on the shoulder, "Then what would that be?" Mr. Oggle said, pointing to a square-like shape hidden under Patrick's uniform. Patrick opened his mouth to speak but went just about breathless. "I have no idea- "I'm warning you boy! I have eyes everywhere!" Mr. Oggle grabbed the boy's jaw and pushed it down, then, from about 3 feet away threw a mint into Patrick's mouth, "Run along," he laughed, "And watch out!"
     The library was quiet except for the sound of bubble gum bubbles popping in students' mouths. Patrick scanned the isles of books so interested in finding the perfect book! Then, out of nowhere came the girl Patrick had been avoiding since he was transferred to the Academy. "Hello Angel." Patrick squeaked as she passed him. "Hello, Patrick... Higgle." Patrick opened his mouth to reply, by saying he had work to do and better leave but Angel spoke for him; "I wanted that book," she said, pulling he gum out of her mouth and rolling it around her finger. She was tall and large, completely overweight.. and pure scary. Angel grabbed the book out of Patrick's hands and shoved her gum into one of the pages, "Now I can read it! Want it back?" she asked showing all her fearsome teeth at poor little Patrick, "NO," he replied, "That book, in fact, doesn't interest me one bit. I've always hated wizards and goblins  Er....-Have a nice day, Angel!" and off he ran.
