Okay. So now I'm left with some problems. Everybody in Perido Beach wants me to be in charge. All because on a field trip once our bus driver had a heart attack and I brought the bus to safety. They still call me School Bus Sam for that. But I really don't want to be in charge of over 300 people. I just want to surf.
On top of that, Astrid asked me to go to the power plant with her to search for autistic brother, Little Pete. On the way there, the school bully, Orc, attacked us with his followers. We got by, but I can tell that there are going to be some future issues with those people. They're calling this place the FAYZ. That stands for Fallout Alley Youth Zone. Like 30 years ago or something a meteorite hit our power plant and produced a bunch radioactivity. But the meteorite took all the radiation with it way down deep into the earth. The power plant people said they cleaned the rest of it up, so the radiation won't kill us all...or so they say. In short, there is definitely going to be some major problems with bullying.
So here is the thing that REALLY has me freaking out. I think I caused the FAYZ. Or at least, I contributed to it or something. I'm just a normal guy, or at least I was up until a few weeks ago. You see, I'm scared of the dark. So I was trying to go to sleep, and I was scared because it was dark. And suddenly, there was this light over in my closet. Not like a light bulb light, a light that was just floating there. Weird, right? Well it gets weirder. Just a little after that, my mom was having a fight with my step dad. They fight a lot, but this one was going too far; when I walked in I thought that he was going after my mom with a knife! All I could feel was anger. I raised my hands, and next thing I know my step dad is screaming in agony! I burned my own stepfather's hand off! Now that is what I call a secret I'm not exactly dying to tell.
(Pgs. 100-175. Took place on the road to the power plant)
