But whether the slime helped my stealth or not, one thing it definitely did was make holding on to things difficult. And dropping the foot-long oval removed once and for all any doubt about whether it was a rock or an egg.

The sound it made when it hit the ground was distinctly a CRACK.

I tucked it under my shirt and looked around. The last place I wanted to go was into the school. The school was where I’d recently failed to show up to Miss Chips’s class, and left an Eiffel Tower embedded in the gymnasium ceiling. But there was no way I could get across the open field without risking Pennyworth exiting the portable and spotting me. The ruckus in the portable came to an abrupt halt, and I heard the sound of the portable door being kicked open by a tiny foot as I rushed into the school.

As I hurried down the hallway there were more cracking sounds from under my shirt, and a piece of eggshell fell to the floor. I heard the school door open behind me and I dove into the Principal’s office.

From a stealth-ninja position in another garbage can (you don’t realize how many garbage cans are around till you start hiding in them) I heard Miss Chips and Principal Wiggins butting heads over the abysmal state of the dance preparation, before they found a happy common ground in the conclusion that everything was all my fault. Because of me, Principal Wiggins was going to have to pay for a new gymnasium ceiling, a new gymnasium window, and a new lawn tractor. And because of me, Miss Chips was going to have to come in during the day on Saturday to oversee the completion of the dance prep.
