WARNING
This Story I will now tell is one I found in my own home. You can choose to believe it or not it is up to you but the things I write I found on an old recording cassette on this recording there are 8 children who are narrating, If you choose to read on the events can only be described as alarming. Good Tidings my dear readers...
Chapter 1. The Beginning
Hi, my name is Alicia Sands I'm 14 years old my life was a normal one. I went to school, met my friends and go home and study that was before I got a letter and my life changed forever. It was at exactly 7: oo am on Wednesday I was eating my favourite cereal, rice crispy. "Honey, slow down you'll get the hiccups if you keep eating like that." That's my mum if you were wondering. "Sorry Mum but I have to get to school early today I promised I would help Lily out with her leaflets for endangered animals". Maybe I should explain you see my friend Lily Grace loved animals and all girly, help people and save the planet kind of gal but don't get her wrong she has an awful temper if you get her really angry. "Alright Alicia sweetie that's fine you just finish up and I'll go get the mail and drive you to school ok." "Alright Mum". My Mum went to get the mail I finished my breakfast and went to the mirror to fix my hair. A lot of people thought I was weird because I always colour some bits of my hair, today I had the colour purple the rest of my hair is curly and brown I also had brown eyes.
Before I could actually put on my eye pencil my Mum called me.
"Alicia, You got a letter sweetheart do you want me to open it for you?"
"Yeah, Thanks Mum". My mum opened the letter and read out loud to me.
"Dear Miss Sands,
To our immense pleasure you out of 3 other students of your school have been accepted to Creedy Towers, Private Boarding School in Liverpool. You can come to see the School on Thursday 29th. Also the boarding school provides there own houses you have been accepted to Ra House.
Please Note that this is a scholarship letter for you to join.
Sincerely, Victor Rodenmaar Jr.
I shook my head twice to get over the shock me, me... I got accepted to a prestigious private boarding school! No freaking way ha can't wait to tell my friends about this I can almost imagine what there going to say. [Lily] "Oh My God squee you got into a boarding school, excite! Oh did I also mention I've got 2 other friends: Will and Mason [Mason] "Whoa, That's great Licia you gonna be all preppy and smart at that boarding school I wonder how much food will be there."
Last and definitely least my other friend Will
[Will] "You got into a private school (insert ridiculous stupid, gay laugh here) Oh god you gotta be kidding me." You must be thinking why was I friends with this complete jerk face well you see I met him from Mason because Mason is dating Lily yeah a long story for another time, anyway because those two day are dating I met Will. He's a crazy manipulative guy but he's still one of my best friends.. sometimes.
"Licia this is a wonderful opportunity honey and it's a scholarship."
"Mum I don't know all of my friends are here in Scotland you can't actually think I would go to that preppy and posh school can you."
"But Alicia the letter said three other people got accepted in your school maybe it's one of your friends."
I was thinking about the possibilities of getting out of going to this hell hole of a school but my Mum really wants me to go... she is right god that was hard to say.
"Fine I'll go you better be happy about this mum."
"Oh honey I'm so proud of you your Father will be to I will call him after I drive you come on sweetie".
I was now at school or now soon to be called "previous" school I was walking to my form class when my friends ran into me.
"Licia Hey! What's wrong you look like Mason when he found out there was a pop quiz for science today". Lily says worriedly
"Yeah Licia emo what's wrong someone stole your streaks and black lipstick".
"As a matter of fact Will no also I don't wear black lipstick, and you're right I'm not ok."
"Well what is it *Gasp* did your mum get eaten by the zombies!"
"No Mason and stop watching those zombie horror movies there rotting your brain the problem is I got a letter about a scholarship". I said bowing my head down in embarrassment.
It was quiet until I put my head up again and saw my friends smiling like idiots but instead of saying that I said something more mature.
"Why are you guys looking at like serial killers ready to kill me"?
Lily started to giggle now she only does that when she's really excited.
"Oh I can't hold it in any longer we got the same letter Lily said jumping while doing so.
I was so surprised that automatically my jaw dropped.
Will put his hand on my chin and closed my jaw for me. "No need to be surprised Sands and keep your jaw up or you'll catch fly's."
"Isn't this great guys you can take the amigos out the school but you can't take the amigos away from each other" Mason says putting his arms around all of us.
"I know anyway what house were you accepted to"?
"House of Ra". Will said
"So did I, did all of you get in that house".
"Yeppers, I figure it has something to do with the Greek gods what about you guys?"
Will shook head playfully at Mason "Oh my dear, dear clueless friend". Will says
"What, am I missing something" Mason says back
I then heard the bell.
Me, Will and Lily walked to form while Mason was behind us who still was mulling over the fact that he didn't know who the house were named after.
We reached form and our form tutor was telling us to get to our seats while she gets the register out that's when Mason thought to do something very dumb.
He stood up and shouted "GUYS I GOT IT, EGYPTIANS!" "Mr Lewis sit down this instant". Our form teacher shouts.
School went by in a flash I soon was walking home with Lily putting up some of her endangered animals posters. The boys were at the other end of the street hanging up the posters.
"Hey Alicia doesn't that guy look weird to you"
"What guy Lils?"
"Turn around" Lily whispered
I turned around and saw the strangest thing this man was looking at us I couldn't see much of his face but he had long greyish hair and was wearing this hat. "Hey you two" Will called
I turned back around and saw Will and Mason.
"We finished the posters... ok what happened."
Lily looked a bit peeved Mason (her boyfriend) noticed this straight away.
He said "Lily Flower what's wrong did somebody say something".
"What, No Mason nothing like that it's just me and Licia saw a creepy man behind us she said quietly.
"What man".
"What man can't you see Will he's right behind I turned while I said this and he was right the creepy man had gone I didn't know if it was just me but the street had gone cold and uncomfortable.
Little did I know was that "creepy" man had a huge part in this story.
