Aria's POV

I walked into the gates of hell, also known as Roxburough High. I kept my head lowered and made no eye contact. That's how I learned to stay out of trouble.

I made it to my locker without any trouble. I knew this luck wouldn't last long, so I cherished every second I wasn't being harassed. I did my combo of the lock and it clicked open- as soon as I did that...

Someone fell out!

Of MY locker!

It's usually reversed.

I looked at the boy. He was my age, from what I could tell. He had buzz cut platinum blonde hair, and he wore a white long sleeve shirt with a large light blue snowflake on the bottom corner of his shirt. He had light grey jeans and when he opened his eyes...

Icy blue.

"What were you doing in my locker?" I ask suspiciously. He reminds me of one of the meaner bullies in the school... His eyes and that hair...

"Locker...?" He ask, slightly confused. He looks back and I see a swirl of something disappear. The boy frowns and stands up, dusting himself off.

"Guess I'll have to find a different way home." The boy murmured to himself. I raised a brow. "Excuse me? My locker isn't a transport..." I reply, really confused now.

"Oh... Hello." The boy turned his attention to me. "Forgive me- I didn't see you there." He bows his head and I sigh. "It's fine... I'm used to it..."

He gave me a look of confusion and concern. I smiled reassuringly... Even if I wasn't even reassured myself. "Well... Alright. If you don't mind me asking, where is this?" He asks, looking around seeing people rush by.

"The hallway?" I look at him confused. Did he hit his head or something?

"More specifically, please?" He tilts his head. "Roxburough High... In Victoria." I reply. Did he not see the five huge signs at the entrance, CLEARLY stating; 'Welcome Back, Roxburough High Students!' ?!

"Is that by any chance in Ninjago?"

"Ninja what?" I blink. Is he delusional?

"I'll take that as a no..." He sighs.

"Why were you in my locker? And what was that swirly thing?!" I ask, wanting to know more.

"I came from Ninjago, a place far away- maybe even in another dimension. That 'swirly thing' is the vortex which brought me here. I had no intention to end up in your locker." He frowned a bit.

"... Are you some cosplaying dude trying to get attention? If so.. It's not working on me." I folded my arms.

"I'm being serious. Here... Let me prove I'm not from this dimension." He smiles, as if he thinks he can do anything.

What, is he gonna have powers or something?

"Whatever. Show me at lunch... Classes start soon anyways... What was your name again?" I ask, grabbing my books and closing my locker.

The boy smiled and followed me on my way to class.

"My name is Zane Julien."
