TNL: Mark Begins His New Life

After Jana left the office, Ms. Stone turned her attention back to her security monitor, hoping to catch someone else "breaking" the rules. It was like her own little hobby. A few minutes later, she saw the video feed coming from the school's entrance. It showed four students smoking just outside the doors. It disgusted her to see them smoke, but as long as they were *outside* the school, it wasn't against the rules. She knew these four, especially the two girls, who were both Goths. She was just waiting for them to slip up just one more time. Fantasies of her declaring the two of them as suspended flashed across her mind and small grin appeared on her face. And just as if her wish was granted, she watched one of the two girls head *away* from the school instead of *towards* it. "Trying to skip school, eh?" Ms. Stone said, smiling even more. ------ "Kylie, where the fuck are you going? If that bitch Ms. Stone catches you ..." The other Goth girl turned around and looked at the girl speaking to her. "Are you talking to me?" "You *are* the only one named Kylie here, aren't you?" *Kylie?* the Goth girl thought. *But ... I'm not a girl. My name is Mark and I'm a guy.* Slowly, but surely, memories of the "afterlife" suddenly filled her head. This was her new life. *Oh god, what have I done? This isn't what I wanted.*
