Hi. This is my first fan-fiction so it might be completely rubbish!!! Please review so I can improve my stuff...
It had been a long day at the House of Night, well night. It all gets a bit confusing sometimes. I mean, they say day but they mean night, because for vampires, night is day and day is night yet sometimes they come out at day instead of nightings for night with no day. Anyway...
It had been a long day/night/twilight/dawn/teatime/dark thing/ at the House of Night. Neferet had decided to be evil again and the first few hours of the morning had been spent trying to sedate her as she tried to blow up the school using only a pineapple and half a carton of semi skimmed milk. Lenobia had found this scheme particularly irritating due to the fact she had just poured herself a cup of coffee but had not yet added the milk before Neferet ran off with it, cackling.
"Something needs to be done about this daft bat." Dragon said, during the meeting that was held immediately after Neferet was locked in a dark room on her own.
"Nice pun." Lenobia said, in between mouthfuls of black coffee.
"Thanks." Dragon smiled at her. "I spent hours rehearsing that one..."
"Back on to the subject of Neferet," Anastasia said, eyeing Dragon sternly. "We cannot allow her to continue being strange. The future of the House of Night is in danger. Imagine if Ofsted came in the middle of one of her fits! We'd get an 'unacceptable' which is unacceptable." The teachers exchanged frightened looks.
"Anastasia is right." Lenobia said, wincing as she swallowed a particularly bitter mouthful of coffee. "We cannot allow Neferet to jeopardise our Ofsted report. She must be stopped."
"Agreed." Dragon said. They all nodded, the prospect of the looming Ofsted inspection injecting a new sort of fear into the hearts of the assembled teachers.
"But what do we actually do, as in, plan-wise?" Lenobia asked.
There was sudden silence. The teachers stared at each other blankly or started picking at their plastic ring-binder files self consciously.
"Er..." Dragon said, awkwardly. "I was kind of hoping Zoey would come up with that part." The teachers nodded enthusiastically.
"Yes..." Lenobia said. "Zoey'll come up with something."
"Where is Zoey?" Dragon asked, looking round at the assembled. "I don't see her."
"No idea..." Anastasia said. "But she'll turn up soon. Now, who's up for Chinese?"
Am just finishing chapter two...please let me know what you think...
Thanks,
