Chapter Two

'''Saturday, November 14, 2011. Kindergarten. Los Angeles, CA.'''

Anne pumped her little legs and giggled. The swing reached the zenith of its arc and she felt a rush of excitement as she swung back.

“Look, Mar-Mar! I’m an Eagle!” she cried.

Marcy laughed. “Cool! Well, I’m a twin-engine cemax amphibious aircraft!”

It was hard to believe, in Anne’s mind, that their friendship was still firm and strong. The girls had seen each other every day since that morning at preschool when they had promised each other to be best friends for life. Now, they were in Kindergarten (totally grown up) and seemed never to leave each others’ side.

Anne giggled but suddenly screamed when her swing was yanked out from underneath her. She saw Marcy tumble to the ground beside her, and when she looked up, two much older girls were sitting on the swingset.

“Aw, how cute,” the first girl mocked. “Now beat it. These swings are ours.” She and her friend laughed, high mocking laughs that wormed their way into Anne’s brain.

Anne looked over and saw tears springing up in Marcy’s eyes. Marcy was a sensitive girl, much quieter than she’d been that first day in preschool, and seemed to cry more easily now. Wrapping her arm around her friend, Anne began to trudge dejectedly away from the swingset, when suddenly a clear voice broke through the chilly November Air.

“Not so fast, evildoers! Leave those kids alone!”

Anne and Marcy looked up to see a slim blonde girl standing atop the slide. Her fine, fair hair was pulled into a ponytail with a pink scrunchie, and she wore a light pink and mauve dress with a light blue jean jacket. Her mary-jane style shoes were shiny and black, and next to her left eye was a brown freckle. She looked like a ballerina, in Anne’s opinion.

The girl screamed a loud battle cry and dashed down the slide. Anne and Marcy watched in awed wonder as the girl flew off the slide and at the older girls… and promptly fell on her face.

The two older girls looked at the newcomer in confusion. The blonde picked herself up off the ground and declared, “I’m not done yet. I’ll never give up! NO MATTER WHAT!”

She charged at the swings again. The bullies scooted their swings to let the girl pass and she ran into the fence.

The redheaded older girl whispered, “This is getting weird.” Her friend rolled her eyes.

“Yeah, we’re outta here. Enjoy your swings, babies.”

They walked away muttering. The blonde girl picked herself up off the ground and dusted herself off. She smiled proudly and gestured to the swings.

“Swings are all yours,” she said to Anne and Marcy. She started to walk away.

Anne looked at Marcy. This new girl had just stood up to bullies just to get total strangers swings. The least that they could do was let her play with them.

“Hey,” Anne called. The blonde turned around. “You wanna swing with us?”

The girl smiled. “I… I’d like that,” she said.

Anne pulled Marcy over to the new girl. “I’m Anne,” she said. “This is Marcy.”

Marcy gave the new girl a shy wave. “Hiya.”

The blonde girl smiled even wider. She put her hands on her hips and replied, “I’m Sasha. Sasha Waybright.”

Laughing, the three girls ran off to the swingset. Anne just knew that it was gonna be the start of a beautiful friendship.
