"Yeah, thanks a lot," Lucas said to the nondescript UEO seaman who had dropped him off. He stepped up onto the dock, barely having enough time to grab his dufflebag and laptop before the seaman started up the boat's engine again.
Captain Bridger had said that this would be a good opportunity to make nice with kids his own age. Lucas Wolenczak knew better. The Captain probably thought he was doing the right thing, but in reality he was just getting Lucas out of the way while the new SeaQuest was built. He knew he could help, and he knew that there were things on the new sub that could have been better with his assistance, but he didn't have any say in the matter.
He couldn't stay and help. He was here now, at school. Looking up at Fandom High, Lucas had severe doubts about this school thing. This didn't look like any school he'd seen, except maybe in Switzerland.
But again, he didn't have much of a choice. It was either the school or keep standing on the dock. School won out and he started walking.
