Chapter One – The Warning.
"God this is a tropical rain!" Miranda cried one Monday morning. "I couldn't do anything at all this weekend, I mean, what is there to do when your stuck inside?" Miranda moaned miserably wiping rain of her face, now that they had reached the shelter of the school buildings.
"You think you had it bad! I was stuck inside a house for a whole weekend with Matt!" Lizzie said.
"You know I was watching the news this morning, unlike some people" Gordo said staring at Lizzie and Miranda.
"Unlike most people, Gordo" Lizzie said rolling her eyes "You're the only kid I know who watches the news, who even cares what's happening or who even knows what time its on."
"Everyone knows what time the news is on" Gordo said pouting slightly
"Oh yeah?" Miranda asked "Why don't you ask Ethan over there?" Ethan was the hottest guy in their year, but he was not very smart. Ok I lied. He had no brains at all.
"Ethan? He doesn't even know what the day is!" Gordo said, "Ok anyway, not the point, the point is everyone's been put on alert."
"Alert for what?" Lizzie asked, opening her locker and grabbing her books.
"Alert for flooding!" Gordo said with emphasis and wide eyes to try and get the point across.
"Where has there been flooding?" Miranda asked puzzled looking back along the corridor to the front doors, probably expecting to see brown and swirling water.
"In lot's of places actually, a few areas of nearby towns have been evacuated because of the threat of sudden flash flooding. And other towns have totally been flooded and the SOS have had to make rescues, because of flooding!"
Said Gordo using flooding in the sentence 3 times to make his point clear.
"What kind of rescues?" Miranda asked.
Lizzie and Gordo just stared at her.
"What, I just want to know!" Miranda said shrugging.
"You know when people in their homes are suddenly knee deep in flood water, and climb up onto their roofs? And the SOS makes air rescues, not to mention the people who get stranded in cars." Gordo trailed off into a silence.
Miranda just nodded knowingly. Lizzie shook her head, and looked back at Gordo.
"Have there been any warnings aimed at our area?" Lizzie asked Gordo as they walked to their first class, History.
"Yeah but they don't seem to think it's that serious because they are still sending us to school, aren't they?" Gordo asked with a small smile. Just then their conversation was cut short as the trio sprinted across a quadrangle that was covered in puddles.
"We don't need warnings" Miranda muttered, "We can see it for ourselves."
Ok I know it's not the best but it's the first one and I can't get any worse can I? I'll be putting more up adding onto this so please review. Thank You!
