Okay so I really want there to be another book in the St Clare's series so I decided to have a go at writing it. Suggestions are welcome. This will be written in a slightly different style to Enid Blyton but I'll try to keep the characters the same. Please don't be mean, I'm not a very experienced writer. constructive criticism is welcome.
It's the twins last term at St Clares and everyone wants to make the most of it, but with Hilary gone, two annoying new girls and a weird new project with boys from a nearby boarding school, it will certainly be difficult.
Disclaimer ~ Unfortunately I don't own this series of books. Everything but the plot, Kayla and Jessica belongs to Enid Blyton and Pamela Cox.
Pat, Isabel and Alison O'sullivan were sitting in a train station cafe, waiting for the train that would take them to their beloved school, . The three girls were chatting and joking around, trying to ignore the feeling of sadness as they realised it would be the last time they would get the train to school. It was indeed their last term at St Clare's and they didn't feel happy about leaving it. Pat and Isabel had of course been attending since they were young.
"Hey do you know if there's any new girls this term, twins?" Alison asked Pat and Isabel. She knew if there was any, her cousins would know. They were after all the head girls.
"Actually yes," Pat said. "Miss Theobald actually told us that there were two new girls. Theyre both coming from Fallhorn academy for young ladies."
"It's rather odd though," Isabel put in, "It seems weird they would transfer in their last term at school." Alison nodded in understanding.
Suddenly a train puffed into the station. The trio stood up and walked onto the platform. Getting aboard the train that would take them straight into their last term at school.
On the train the girls were all smiles and laughter. Janet was talking excitedly to Doris. Alison sat with the twins. Carlotta walked in a few minutes later and greeted everyone happily, knowing that even after this term she would still be with her friends in University. Morag a girl with fiery red hair and a temper that could challenge Carlotta's joined the group soon after, and all thoughts of the new girls flew from their minds.
When they arrived at the school they hurried off to give the school Matron their health certificates and anything else that would be required for the term ahead. The Matron asked whether the girls would be keeping their study mates. After a few swaps, Fizz with Claudine, Carlotta with Morag in the study next to them, Myrabel with Gladys happy to be back with her friend, just like Alison and Angela. It was a relief to have everyone back with their friends. The girls didn't enjoy their previous term as much as they could have, because the head teacher, Miss Theobald had moved a few girls around to help the girls who had to retake exams, study better.
After finding out who was in what dorm the girls headed off to unpack their bags. After ten minutes or so, a pair of girls stalked in. The rest of the sixth form stopped chatting and looked up. Both girls were tall, one had black hair and the other was blonde. They were both attractive looking and had no need for the obvious makeup that seemed to be caked on their faces. Isabel glanced over at Pat and made an unamused face. She tried not to laugh as her twin made her own unimpressed face back.
Turning to the new girls the twins were about to introduce everybody, but before either of them could open their mouths the girl with the black hair had began to talk.
"I'm Kyla and this is Jessica." she gestured to the blond girl in an affected manner, reminding the sixth formers strongly of Angela.
It was clear that Pat and Janet weren't happy with the girls already. Isabel had to roll her eyes, typical.
"Hi,"Isabel attempted to break the tension that had fallen across the room, "I'm Isabel, this is my twin Pat and our friends Janet, Carlotta and Fizz."
"Really." She said bordley, in fake interest.
Jessica started to pick at her nails and Kayla moved to unpack. Carlotta turned around and made a face behind their backs. The rest of the girls occupying the dorm smirked at the public display of dislike.
'We'd better get down to dinner.' Gladys announces, trying to keep the peace.
The room was now quiet and tense. The new girls were definitely going to be hard work.
Okay, I re wrote this chapter. I have really no idea what I was thinking the first time I wrote this out. It had a bunch of mistakes and was in different tenses. So sorry. Thank you for reading ~ Scarlet
