Port Mercer began as a quaint, bustling port on the east coast of Georgia... quaint, besides its tendency to attract the wrong kind of attention. It was common knowledge that the docks, along with various establishments downtown, were infested with pirates. But something drove them out of their safe harbour and the town was left to languish for nearly a century, something the few townsfolk that remembered did not speak of.
Most from the neighbouring cities were still afraid to settle there, even with the pirates long gone. Then came the civil war, bringing it back to life- at a price. The town's strange reputation resurfaced once more, however this time it was from the talk of ghosts instead.
But prosperity was not to shine over Port Mercer forever. It was eventually overshadowed by the neighbouring town of Savannah, and fell into obscurity once more.

Deja entered the classroom and paused at the door, eyes scanning the filled room. The teacher wasn't there yet and the seats seemed to be occupied. No one was really paying attention to the newcomer and she didn't mind. She hated moving to new places and having to introduce herself again and again.

Brow furrowed, she inched closer inside the classroom all the while looking for a vacant seat. There had to be one or the receptionist would not have assigned her to this class and this session time. Spotting a free seat, Deja was about to claim it when she recognized who sat there. Heck no. She turned around, glancing around for another seat.

She opened her mouth to decline but the teacher was already rapping at the desk to get their attention. Deja held back a sigh and trudged back to the stool, placing it on the corner and sitting down, gluing her eyes on the teacher as he began explaining the objectives for today's lab.

Deja didn't intend on peeking at his texts but when the vibration sounded beside her, she turned her head and saw him texting some rather suggestive words. Her brow furrowed in disgust at him and Deja snorted under her breath. "Pig..." she muttered amidst other French sayings for disgusting fellow.

Deja raised a brow at him. "Oh it'd be worse if it was directed at me, pal..." she said sarcastically and focused her attention on the board, pulling out a pen and paper to jot down notes.

The teacher then turned to the class again and grinned. "So without further ado... Get your goggles and pulled out the cats. You'll be studying the reproductive system today."
Deja rolled her eyes. In every school she went to, that was the first and only thing they got to before her father announced they were leaving. At least now though, she could breeze through the lab and go to her room.

"Fine..." Deja answered, not bothering to look at him. Placing her bag under the table, she pushed back from her stool. "Where are the goggles and the cat?" she asked him.

Not wanting to get into trouble on the first day, Deja nodded and trudged to the front to retrieve the goggles and collect the labeled cat from the teacher who introduced himself to her.
She managed a smile of thanks and walked back to the table, frowning at her lab partner who was too busy texting while their classmates feverishly worked on their dissections. She cleared her throat and extended the goggles. "Here..."

"Shouldn't you know? You've been here longer than I have." Deja placed the goggles over her eyes and scanned the cat carefully from head to toe, one ear tuned to the teacher's instructions. She pulled out a scalpel from one of the drawers and held it up.
