. "So this is how ma day started: \"Lorna McNessie, please report tae the Dead Master's office.\" Uh oh. It's usually nae good when you hear your name vibratin' oot of a classroom speaker. As I left the room I could hear ma classmates giggling behind me; this nae bein' the fiercst time I'd made the long walk tae the office. I was pretty sure this time it must be aboot me photobombing the faculty fearbook picture. I just couldna help ma self; there they all were in their robes and finery, looking all stern and teacher-like, and there was that window behind them. I was dawn tae it like a werewolf tae a full moon, and even then I only stuck ma face in for one snap.. or two.. so I didna think it would cause a fuss. I stood outside the Dead Master's door, drew a deep breath and got ma \"Yes, I should have known better\" apology ready. Then I knocked and stuck ma head in. \"You wanted tae see me sir?\" He was on the phone and he waved me in and pointed tae a chair. I sat down while he kept talkin' tae the monster on the other end. \"Ay, academically strong.\" He just listened for a moment and then laughed himself tae tears. \"Nae nae, twas something ye said struck me funny. I can assure you that self-confidence will nae be an issue with this one, Headmistress Bloodgood. Thank you for yer time as well, and I'm sure we'll speak again soon. Goodbye.\" The Dead Master hung up the phone and leaned back in his chair. \"That was Headless Headmistress Bloodgood from Monster High. She's accepted your application for the monster exchange program.\" I couldna beleive it, which seemed tae be an opinion shared by the Dead Master. I ask if that was the reason he called me tae his office. He said \"Nae - twas merely a happy accident. But since you're here, I suppose I shouldna have tae tell you that you'll be representing our school, and I'll expect you tae be on your beast behavior.\" I told him that, of course I would, and that I would make the school proud. \"Very good. Now lets have a little chat aboot the faculty fearbook photo, shall we?\""@en . "So this is how ma day started: \"Lorna McNessie, please report tae the Dead Master's office.\" Uh oh.
