Ignoring the people in the back, Rachael took the hand and shook.  "Rachael," she said, even though the name tag made it more than obvious.  "I kind of agree; the bells here are really loud and obnoxious.  Back at my last school, they just played a few tones through the public address system."  However, Rachael knew that she wouldn't be able to do anything about it.  The principal already hated her, so anything she suggested would just be shot down.<br/><br/>"Was that the last bell?  I'm going to be meeting up with a friend; maybe you'd like to come along?"  Spencer didn't seem the type who would mind if Rachael brought someone else along to chat.  With all the mean people in this school, it was going to be necessary to band together if they were going to make it through.
