"Am so sorry for dragging you into this mess" Nikki said. "Don't sweat it, Poppy thinks she's the Queen of this school" one of the girls said. "But that's not true, you wouldn't be in this mess if you hadn't stood up for me" Nikki sighed "looks like Poppy won". The two girls looked at Nikki they hadn't seen someone who just stood up to someone admit defeat that easily, they were heading to the Principal's office and they had no idea of what the future had in store for them.

"No she didn't, Poppy hasn't won. You know Superman once said, all that's necessary for triumph of evil is that good people do nothing. And Poppy is evil and we're the good people, cheer up, for the triumph of evil is only for a short time" one of the girls who had light brown hair said. The other girl who had a plaited black hair laughed and said "Poppy is EVIL!!!" they all laughed together.

The girl who had a light brown hair looked at Nikki and smiled "am Renee Johnston by the way" she said. The girl with plaited black hair said "and i'm Teresa Pete ." Nikki stared at them and said "OH MY Gosh!! don't tell me your from the esteemed wealthy families of this City, I mean country, it's so nice to meet you".

"Don't sweat it, we're just regular normal people like you, and what's your name? Nikki looked at Teresa "you're asking for my name? You know never in my life would I have assumed that people in your social wealthy circle would care about a nobody like me." "you know we may come from wealthy families but we aren't like Poppy and her minions. We see ourselves as regular people, you don't need to be all high and mighty before you can make friends." Renee said. "Thanks guys, by the way am Nikki Wellington and a scholarship student and the least student in the school."

"why did you say that you're the least student in the school" Teresa asked. "Because when I was passing by the Cafeteria I heard two girls talking they were murmuring and they were pointing at me and they said "isn't that the least student in the school. I mean I just got here and people already know me" Nikki said.

"Hmmm..., it must be Poppy's doing. She has this dumb ranking spot on the school's blog , where Poppy decides the students who are the ranked the least and those who are above. And trust me , I wouldn't want to be in her top charts" Renee said, "why??" Nikki said.

"Because those who do her biddings are the ones ranked above and there are rewards, dumb rewards if I must say. Respect from the other students,(which is more like fear) attending Poppy's posh weekend parties ( which those in the lower rank don't get an invitation to) and lots of annoying stuff such as ability to do whatever you like, bully lower rank members, send lower rank members to fetch lunch and anything they need".

"And the teachers do nothing?!!", "ssshh!! don't you drag the teachers into this. The principal is basically a puppet in Poppy's father hands" Renee said. "And the Principal allows himself to be used in the hands of Poppy's father like a puppet?!!.

"sssshh" they both said and covered her mouth. "Don't you know the walls have ears" Teresa whispered. Nikki couldn't imagine such a thing to be controlled by someone just for nothing, it didn't make sense.

"The Principal is controlled by Poppy's father because if you do not do what Poppy's father want you're so gonna miserable", both girls said.

To Nikki it still didn't make sense "but how can he control a Principal of a prestigious school" she asked. " Poppy's father can do the undoable" Teresa say.."Does that even make sense? he isn't a god, is he?". " Ugh!! girl, why wouldn't you understand?. Renee looked at Nikki she hadn't seen someone who is quite knowledgeable but also naive.

"Shall we explain again?" Teresa did not listen to Nikki's reply she continued " The Principal is typically a puppet in the hands of Poppy's father because Poppy's father is a friend of our City's Mayor. And the Mayor can close down the school, so that's why the Principal does anything Poppy's father says. Whether it's to expel a student ( a student on scholarship like you who stands up to Poppy) and so it means Poppy is literally the Queen of the School".

"OH MY GOD!!! Nikki said, "yep , welcome to life at Phoenix Junior High school" they finally arrived at the Principal's office.

"Sit down young ladies" the Principal said. The Principal's office had a large table, photo frame of two American President,a flower pot and red cushions and velvet chair.

The door of the Principal's office burst open and Poppy walked in and narrated the ordeal ( in her own version), and so that's how I sprained my leg they were the cause" Poppy said. " What!!! that's not true" the girls said. "Now, now everyone calm down. Poppy I can't just expel this students, you only hurt your leg . Surely suspension will be good enough for them", the principal said.

"Seriously, suspension? am so gonna call Dad" Poppy said. "Now , now let's not disturb the honourable politician your father over some minor issues, Poppy" the Principal said.

Poppy looked at him and started calling her father, " Poppy please" the Principal said. "It's diallling" Poppy said. The Principal looked at Poppy and was sweating and looked at the three girls said said "Nikki Ella Wellington , You're......
