You're a member of Mme. Bustier's class, but you've been away for the last month or so due to an internship program you've been in all the way in Japan, along with helping with a few things in Achu as part of it. Excitingly enough, you even met Prince Ali during that time! You're back now, though, and as sad as you were to leave, you're excited to be with all your friends again. You come walking into class that morning excited.
Or, well, you were excited until you noticed the distinct shift in the class. Instead of sitting near the front with Alya, or even Nino or Kim (since they've been close since primary), Marinette was sitting towards the back with Chloé. The others are all in strange seats, too, of course, but the strangest thing of all is the new girl - if you don't count the strange, what looks to be, isolation of Mari from the others (besides chloé, strangely). You've been told the girl's name is Lila and that she's well accomplished, among other things. You, however, have a horrible feeling about her. Strange.
"Now, class, has everyone turned in last night's homework assignment?"
Mme. Bustier asks once everyone's settled down and in their seats. Suddenly, the girl - Lila's - hand shoots up and she has big crocodile tears in her eyes. Yeah, this is officially weird.
