The linoleum floor has been freshly polished and the glass has been replaced in the biology door. It seemed like nothing had happened here over the summer but it couldn't be more deceiving. I can feel the stares of the other kids on my back. I just have to find one of my friends and I'll be fine. No one aside from our group and our parents know about our adventure. There were rumors, sure, everyone knew we were involved somehow, but that's what they were, rumors. The Air force couldn't allow for any of this to get out. It would send the world in to complete chaos. It's the only reason we got off scotch free from the whole mess is that we have a story that would cover the front page of the paper in every country. It was like a sword over their head waiting to be dropped. My father escaped jail and my friends and I Juvie because of it. I can remember the relief that filled me as the final documents were signed. My father told me the kids at school will leave us alone and treat us almost like heroes but I don't believe it. This is middle school, a cruel and unusual place where people are punished for being different. I was painfully reminded of this when someone much larger than me shoved my shoulder into the wall. Yes, this is going to be a very long year.
Suddenly, I heard my friend Charles' loud, rambunctious voice over the cacophony of teenagers.
"But the production value! It would be completely mint!" There was a pause while whoever he was talking to spoke.
"Come on Smartain, what do you mean you don't want to do anymore movies? I can't just change protagonists in the middle of a series!" I quickly weaved through the crowd and followed the voice. Sure enough, there he was, holding his new Super 8 after his last one was destroyed in the accident.
"Do you even remember what just happened? Last time we tried to make a movie we were almost murdered!" Martin quickly lowered his voice as he noticed some curious stares lingering toward us.
Suddenly, Cary who must have been listening to the conversation from his locker, conveniently placed next to Charles',s broke in."Aww, we weren't murdered! We had an awesome battle and you broke your leg during explosion and then-"
"Will you shut up!" Martain hissed! "If word gets out the air force is going to come back and shoot us all!" Charles slapped Cary over the head, officially ending the conversation.
"So how's everyone liking school?" I ask awkwardly, desperately trying to pull myself from my memories. There were a couple of murmurs that sounded a lot like, "It's a bitch."
A/N This is just the prologue and extremely short. I have quite the elaborate plot planned for this but I would like your feed back because this is my first Super 8 fanfiction. I've only seen the movie twice but I'm in love with it. I even convinced my friends to dress up as the main characters with me for passing out candy on Halloween (I got Alice because most of my friends are boys…) Ew nasty image of a guy dressing as Alice. -_- Anyways thanks for reading!
