White Teeth Warriors
Lena got up exceptionally early that morning. She felt as if she had been preparing for something important for a week. She stretched lazily and immediately reached for her toothbrush. She liked this moment of the day - for a moment the bathroom belonged only to her. She carefully brushed her teeth with the almond-mint toothpaste, just as her mother had taught her. As she looked at her teeth in the mirror, the thought flashed through her head that something was going to happen at school today.

"You need to see something," he said in a whisper and led her towards the school bathroom, which they thought no one had looked in for years. The door creaked open and a strange smell, reminiscent of a mixture of toothpaste and black tea, reached their noses.
It was dark inside, and indistinct handprints shimmered on the mirrors. On one of the washbasins lay a .... a toothbrush they had never seen here before. It had blue bristles and a handle embossed with the letters: "B.Z.W."

Suddenly, all the mirrors shimmered and a luminous inscription emerged: "Only a really clean smile has the power to protect the passage...".
