Return of the Dragon Rider by Me (reading list TXT) 📕

I was just finishing the last touches to my clothes when my bedroom door swung open. "Girl come on. You're slower than a dead sea snail on the bottom of the ocean." Said my best friend Amy.
"I was about to be done when you came barging in. But now that I think about it, I don't really like this shirt."
She just rolled her eyes and dragged me out of my room. "I want to get to school early so we can torment the freshmen."
I just smiled and followed her out the door. "You've been doing that since you were a sophomore. Don't you think it's time grow up, and act like a senior?"
She busted out laughing. "Don't start acting like you're miss perfect. You love doing this as much as I do." She opened her door and climbed in. "Now get your ass in the car or we we're going to miss the freshmen."
I did as she said and climbed in. "I hope we have some good classes together this year. I hate being stuck with all the freshmen. They think they can do anything."
"You're right. I was thinking of trying out for the soccer team next week, you want to try out to?"
"Sure. I don't see why not. Maybe we'll even be on Varsity again this year."
She just laughed. We both knew we were going to make it. The coach had already promised us a spot on the team, we just had to go through the tryouts. Since we were knee high, we've been playing soccer. And together we've won ever award out there that child could get. Now we have one more year of school left until we get our scholar ships and go to college.
When we got to school we found a nice spot that wasn't to far from the entrance. Everywhere the freshmen were standing around in groups, talking and looking around fearfully. I just laughed at them and walked into the building. "I'm going to go to the auditorium so I can give that speech. See you later." I hugged Amy and left.
When I got to the auditorium it was packed to the roof. I had to push my way to the stage, more then once a freshman bumped into me. I gave them a growl and they backed off.
I tapped on the microphone to get everyone's attention. "Eyes to me please." I said calmly. Only the people in the front row seemed to hear me. I smiled at them and waited a few more seconds. "FRESHMEN. EYES AND EARS ON ME." I yelled in to the microphone. That seemed to get their attention. "Thank you for your attention. I am Meghan Younge. Captain of the girls varsity soccer team, and Hotel Flight commander. Traditionally this is we're I'm supposed to tell you about the up and downs of high school. But that's not how I'm going to do it." So I went off into my speech. Telling them about all of the bad things, nothing good. By the end of my speech I was sure that I had a few of them in tears. Then I turned my voice bright and cheery. "Now, if any of y'all have a problem, you can come to me and I will take care of it. Now you all are dismissed."
I watched as they slowly got up and left. From we're I was standing I heard a small groups of boys talking. "That girl is crazy. I don't know why they put her in charge of anything."
I jumped off the stage and walked over to them. "You're right. I am crazy. But I have good reasons for it. Especially when fresh meat like you come into my school. Now let me see your schedules."
The little leader of the groups spoke up first. "Why should we? We can just go tell the principal that we're being bullied. That should take care of you."
"Your right. You can do that. But that wouldn't work anyway. My dad is the principal of the school. He's not going to do anything to me. Now let me see your schedules or you all will get a month's detention." He cursed something under his breath. "I heard that. You care to say it were your friends can hear it?"
"No." Then they all handed me their schedules.
I looked them over. "Well Mr. Stone. It seems like you're going to be in ROTC with me. Pray that you won't be in my flight." I dismissed them.
I walked to my first class feeling like a powerful person. "Miss Younge. Nice to see you again this year, but please try to be to class on time."
"I can try. But there will be no promises."
"At least don't scare the freshmen to much. You know I don't like criers in my class." She said laughing.

The rest of my classes went by smoothly. It wasn't until sixth period that I got to see Amy. She sat next to me on the bench."I heard about what happened in the auditorium. I hope you put some fear into them."
"I sure did. And one of them has class with us." I pointed to the boy standing off by himself. "Can you believe he called me crazy?"
"With your wonderful personality, I can. Let's get class started so we can get to athletics."
"Right. I'm aching for a good work out."
I stood in the center of the room. "Hotel flight, Fall in." The returning cadets went to their spots. The One's tried to mimic them. Mr. Stone looked totally confused. I smiled. "Mr. Stone. Would you please come to the front so we can demonstrate the proper way to stand at Attention." He gave me a nasty look but came forward. "I want you to put your feet at a forty-five degree angle. Then face your arms and hands like mine." I demonstrated everything to him. "Now stand there like that until I tell you to stop."
I went on for the rest of class instructing my new flight. The whole time I kept glancing at Stone. Just to make sure he was doing what he was told.
Ten minutes before class ended, I called my flight to fall in. "You to Stone." He stood I front of me shaking. "Do you think I'm crazy now?"
"No ma'am."
"Good. Now go take a rest."
I stood there watching my flight mingle together. "I think we're going to have a good Flight this year." Said Amy.
"I do to. Let's see how long the newbies can last though." She laughed my response.
For the rest of class me and Amy stood there talking with the other Flight Commander and Flight Sergeant. When the bell rang everybody took off.
"Stone will you please come back here for a minute so I can talk to you?"
He looked at me kind of scared. But he came over. "Yes Miss. Younge?" By his tone it was obvious that he thought he did something wrong.
"Do you still wish to be in ROTC after today?"
He looked like he was debating. "I want to, but I don't know."
I nodded. "Alright then. I will not go any easier on you. In fact I will only go harder on you. But by the time I'm done with you, people here will recognized you for being a great leader. And you will thank me for it in the end."
He seemed to think things over. "Will you be teaching me one on one?"
"In order for you to know what I want you to know, yes we will be."
"Alright then. I accept."
"Good. Let me walk you to class then."
For the rest of the walk we were quiet. I dropped him off at class and told his teacher that I was talking to him about something important.
When I got to athletics, they were outside on the field stretching. "I'll be right out coach." I changed quickly into my clothes. "What are we working on today coach?"
"Good to see you Younge. We're running laps."
"Great. I'll see you once I'm done. Oh, by the way. Is there going to
