Lily had always wanted to travel into outer space so that she could explore new worlds. But when she got her superpowers, she discovered another way to see new worlds—all she had to do was step sideways and walk into other dimensions.

You see, there is not just one dimension—there are lots of them. One dimension is a world where dinosaurs still live and have to go to school just like you. Another is a place where everyone can do magic, so everyone thinks magic is dumb and boring. One dimension has robots that have taken over and enslaved the human race. There’s even a world where potatoes are the most intelligent life-form on the planet.

One dimension is the one where Classroom 13 exists. And then there is your dimension, where you are reading about Classroom 13 right now.

Anyway. Using her new powers, Lily stepped sideways and walked into the next dimension. (Instead of forward or backward, she walked to the left). The school looked like hers, except there was no Classroom 13. There was a Classroom 12 and a Classroom 14, but no 13.

She was about to leave when a young boy said, “Where did you come from?”

“Another dimension,” Lily explained. “I just got superpowers that allow me to walk through different dimensions.”

“Cool! I have superpowers, too, but they’re kinda lame,” he said. “My name is Peter Powers, and I can… ugh, this is really embarrassing.… I can make ice cubes with my fingertips.”

“You’re right,” Lily said. “That power is pretty lame.”

“Hey, I can make drinks cold!” Peter said.

“Good for you,” Lily said.

*Peter Powers is a real kid in a real book series that you can read… for real. It’s written by some silly guy named Kent Clark. He and Honest Lee once had a super-battle. Kent Clark lost.
