"Zira, your dinner's getting cold, eat up."
Zira stared at the plate full of spaghetti and meatballs, they reminded her of her own life. All tangled up, and impossible to untangle. Weird, but thats just how it was.
"I'm not really hungry mom."Zira answered, still looking down on her plate.
"Well I know meatballs are scientificly amazing to you, but you don't have to study them for that long!"Zira's dad laughed out loud, at his lame joke.
Yes, Zira was into science and loved creating new things, but usually nothing that she ever did went right.Zira was a 14 year old girl, with brown hair and bangs. She was a calm type of person, but loved to study everything. I'm not saying, she was a geek, in fact people thought that she was more of a punk girl, but were sadly mistaken. She had a lot of problems with her friends, and lost them all, because of her habit to study everything. She could never help it, it was a hobby, which she couldn't get rid of.She was tall and skinny, and pretty good at sports, but not like other people, who were much better that her. The only sport that she liked was rock climbing. She could almost run, up a tree, without getting hurt.Well this is pretty much Zira's personality.
"Well if you're not going to eat that, at least give it to me."Shouted her brother from across the table.
"Jason! Your older sister needs food as much as you do!"
"Mom, why do you have to keep calling Zira, my OLDER sister?"
"Because she is."
"Grrrrrrrrr!"
"You can have the food Jason, I'm not hungry."Zira interrupted the argument.
Zira went into her room, and finished her homework. She looked out the window.
"If only I would ever improve on my beyblading skills, I could be the best in the world. Hmmm....I wonder...."
Suddenly her thought were interrupted by a flick of a red light, right outside the window. Zira sprang up from her chair, but fell into a large box of action figures.
"JAAAASOOOOOOONN!"
When she finally stood up, the red light was gone, and the sky appeared black, like usual.
"Weird" she whispered.

"Listen up students, we have a new student in our class. Please introduce yourself to the class."
A boy stepped out behind the door.
"Hi, I'm Ray, glad to meet you I guess."He grinned
Then came the clapping.
"Okay children stop now, and ray please take a seat behind Sandra."
The girl waved. Ray started walking, but stopped just for a second and turned to Zira. Zira looked up for a second, but quickly turned her head towards the window, pretending not to see anything.
Ray became the most popular boy in the school, just in one day. When Zira walked by, on her way home, she saw a crowd of teenagers all around Ray giggling. But Ray wasn't. He stared blankly at Zira, but she walked away.
"Mom I'm home!" Zira shouted.
"Oh, hi sweetheart!" said her mom stepping out of the kitchen,"How was school?"
"Dunno, just some new boy in my class. And please stop calling me "sweetheart"."
"Oh, alright. After you change, can you please help me with dinner. Your favorite, potatoes and beef fillet with sauce!"
"Sure."Zira answered.
She quickly changed into her clothes, and ran down the stairs, into the kitchen.
"Wow, you sure are quick."
Zira didn't know what to say. She didn't even know why she ran down the stairs that fast.
"Ummm...I'm in a good mood."She knew it was lame, but said it anyway.
"Okay. Can you go down in the basement and get some potatoes?And yes, after you're done just put them on the counter, I have to go somewhere for a while."
"I'm on it!"
This time Zira remembered to walk, not run.She turned on the light in the basement, and walked down the stairs.The potatoes lay right beside some old junk that was passed down from generation to generation, as her parents said. Zira never bothered to look, because she disliked the old fashioned things. When she was passing about a meter from the boxes and the potatoes, she accidentally tripped and fell. Zira knocked down some old boxes, which fell right on top of her.
"Oooooowwwww! Stupid boxes!" Zira shouted.
Oh yes, I forgot to mention, Zira had a habit of tripping, I think you already found that out.
"Are you alright down there?"Shouted her mom from the kitchen.
"Yeah, I just knocked over some boxes."
"Please, just try to be more careful!"
"Yeah, okay!"
"I'm going now, bye!"
Zira heard her mother lock the door. She started putting away all the old things back into their boxes, when suddenly a red light started beaming from behind the stuff. It was so bright.
"Aaaaaahhhhhh!What is going on?" Zira screamed.
