                                                 CHAPTER 4                                                     The truth Everyone started cheering for her. They started clapping. They asked her many questions. Then she demanded everyone to stop. She said, “I know everyone thinks I have some sort of magic powers. But let me tell you something, it is not magic. I was a shy girl. I did not have even a bit of courage. But today, a voice inside me said that even though I was shy, there was something I could use to defeat the bully. MY INNER-POWERS. When you believe in yourself, you can do wonders. That’s how I was able to defeat the bully”. Everyone applauded once again. She felt happy. Suddenly a hand touched her. When she turned back, she ...

                                      CHAPTER 3                                  A STRONG POWER Suddenly, Mia felt or rather heard something within her. Something that forced her to feel angry at the bully. Something that she had never felt before. “Think about Joanne. Think of what she is feeling. Don’t you have to rescue her? After all, you’re her best friend. You have to help her. YOU HAVE THE POWERS IN YOU. Just believe in yourself”, it faded into her mind. She felt as if something was coursing through her body.

Mia and Lia climbed out of the bus first and walked to their school. They still had 20 minutes left for school to start. So, they walked around the school’s fountain laughing and chatting. “Have you heard about Mr. Roy’s strange incident?” asked Lia. “No, but I do know the fact that its Mr. Roy’s birthday today”, replied, Mia. “Hey, look there Lia. What a huge crowd!” Indeed, there was a huge crowd in the corner of the school’s playground which was located near to the fountain. It seemed like an argument or more like a conflict.

                                   CHAPTER 1                                        Life as a Middle-Schooler "Mom! Where's my breakfast?" screamed a young middle schooler. "Coming darling" replied Mom. Mia was like the other girls with blonde, silky hair but the only component missing in her was courage. She was a rather shy girl. And life as a middle schooler wasn't fun at all. She had to be early to class; do a lot of essays; make sure she was neat and tidy and so on. And if she didn't follow the things instructed to her properly she would have to face Mr. Ryan, the school principal. "Here's your breakfast," said mom as she brought a plate of baked potatoes and a smoothie.
