Come with me" and then without hearing Scarlett's opinion, he dragged her out of the pod room.Scarlett was caught off guard, suddenly being dragged out of the pod room. When her mind had finally registered what was going on, she freed her wrist from Ryder's grip and wore an angry expression."What wrong with you?" if there was one thing she hated a lot it was people touching her without her permission, with the exception of her friends and family, she hated being touched by others."I don't have time for this, let's go" Ryder reached out his hand again but was sent flinging by Scarlett."Don't touch me.

It led to change, humans, animals, plants, and even gravity were reduced by some points.As the earth still did not stop its evolution, many humans died while others failed to evolve.

"You don't look shocked" Maple was a bit disappointed by the lack of reaction from Scott."What's there to be shocked about, I was expecting something like this" Scott replied nonchalantly."Really, so it was on purpose then" Maple arched her brow staring directly at Scott with her arms folded.'Crap' this time Scott knew Maple was laying a trap for him. If he had simply answered without thinking then he would have faced the anger on both sides, Scarlett and Maple.Then taking a deep breath, he turned towards Maple and gave a big smile before saying:"Your hair looks extra pretty today what's the secret"Scarlett facepalmed, was that even how to change a subject? but the next moment she was surprised Maple actually bought it."You noticed, it's a new hair cream, It's one of the things dad sent for me yesterday" Maple smiled, playing with a strand of her hair before looking at Scott apprehensively and then she spoke."You've changed""How?"

At 1:00pm the auditorium was filled to the brim with students chattering left and right.
