New School Year (for Bombay)
When Ellie Turner was informed that she would be helping the new students, she was more than a little excited. Becoming one of the students tasked with helping the “new kids” was considered to be a time-honoured tradition among the student body of the Minerva Academy for Gifted Young Women.
Ellie had been lucky, joining the school on a sports scholarship otherwise she would not have been able to attend. She spent the next two years at the school working her way to becoming one of the best runners in the country at just 19-years-old, and much of this was due in part thanks to the school and also her previous mentor, an older student who helped her through it all. Now it was her turn to help someone.
With each semester, you never knew what type of kid would show up. They were all brilliant in their own way. Some were natural athletes, while others were creative savants. Soon a bus pulled up through the gate of the campus, and Ellie braced herself to meet her mentee.
