"You Haven't seen the pool yet? Take the stares to the third floor, you really cant miss it. Its better than all the other schools you know"
And Freshman Kell in the first week of high school eagerly went up the stairs to the third floor. I probably should have known better when you could easily tell our school had only two floors and the fact that I passed many electrical disclaimer warnings along the way.
At the roof there were only mini pools of Pigeon poo. No pool in site. Like an idiot I had fallen for the 'Ol Pool Trick".
Either because I had nothing to do, or I had just wanted to wait up there to see if the pool would eventually form out of the mist, I found myself sitting at the edge of the top and pondering what had happened.
There was actually nothing funny about it, if It was meant to cause me trouble it only took a few minutes to get up there. Plus, If they couldn't see my face when I realized there was no pool where was the fun in it?
Sitting there with my legs dangling over the edge I saw our principal walk out the office doors with a large megaphone, he was being trailed by the same group of seniors that had told me about the pool in the first place. I watched with some interest for a while, and stood up abruptly when I saw them look towards me. Of course at this point I knew that the school roof was not meant for students, otherwise there would have been a vending machine or some annoying girlscout making you buy half burnt cookies before they break away their soul piercing gaze from you.
Like a moose in front of a semi-trucks headlights at midnight, I froze and stared wide-eyed down as the principle spat through the scratchy sounding microphone. "Son, we can talk about this with the counselor" Staring with the same stupid expression on my face from when I first came to the roof, I moved toward the edge of the roof and shouted back. When I did this of course I noticed the few over-dramatic gasps from the seniors around him.
Sweating like a pig in heat during August, the principle shouted through his megaphone, making the seniors recoil slightly at the noise. "DON'T JUMP KID"
I instantly understood (which is rare I most cases) that they thought I was another oddball suicide case. Oddball yes, but even I have never been the one to jump off a 3 story building. Come on, gimme a little credit here.
Within an hours time I had made it down to ground level and explained to the principal what happened, but due to the hell-soul eyes of the seniors standing there I seemed to have 'forgotten' what kids told me about the pool in the first place.
Now In my junior year, I must find new ways to pass on the new freshman tradition, I don't think I would ever go so far, maybe I should break the chain of senior ruthlessness and just get along with the freshman? Well, maybe not.

A friend of mine told me about a story like that. Their seniors told them about where they 'sell ice cream on the fourth floor.' Of course, all the freshmen tried to look for a way to the fourth floor, when in fact, there was none. You tell a mean story. Did you get back at those seniors? Egg their cars or something? Piss on their door handles?
