Chapter 1: WTH!
(Zea's point of view)
Zeahire Diamond (creative last name, no?)sighed. I had gotten detention, again, and the clock seemed to slow down the harder she looked at it. I thought back to why I was in detention, or the dungeon, as most kids called it.
Gym. My least favorite class, since the start of this year.
Last year, in seventh grade, I had a Gym teacher called Mr. Moore. He was the favorite of all the kids that went to my middle school. He was very kind, and even though he made sure we did all the activities planned, he twisted them a little bit so that everyone liked them.
Like kickball, if you didn't want to kick, you could ask someone else to do it for you, though you still had to run. That way, the people who liked to kick got to kick more often, and the people who didn't like to kick didn't have to kick.
But this year, of course, I had to get the strictest Gym teacher of all four. Mrs. Forester. When it is rainy day, both of the Gym classes had to stay inside and we had the choice of playing boomer-ball or shoot some hoops. But Mrs. Forester doesn't get the 'just shoot some hoops, not actually playing basketball' concept. I refused to play, so I got detention. Geez.
Why did I get detention just because I refused to play basketball? On a free day? I should've just walked. But nooo, I just had to want to shoot some hoops. Well, it's too late now.
Just then, I caught sight of another person here in the prison with me. OMG! It was that cute guy from math class, Josh! The teacher never made us introduce ourselves, so nobody bothers to figure out other peoples names. Except me. Why? Because I have nothing better to do.
I wonder what he did to get into detention? He probably was sneaking cigarettes in the boys bathroom, again. Jeez, he's cute, but what's with the underage smoking? Seriously, the guy is going to cut 20 years off his life.
"Miss Diamund!" Then I realized the teacher had called my name like five times now.
"Yes?" I asked.
"Detention is over, Miss Diamund."
Oh. Jeez, I feel stupid. Whatever. By the time the teacher looked up, I was already outside.
(Regular point of view)
Yes! Freedom! Finally, detention is OVER! Suddenly(I love that word!), Zea saw her sister, Saloma, coming my way.
'My parents are totally into Hebrew and Arabic names. Like, Saloma means peace in Hebrew, and my name, Zeahire, means outstanding or distinguished in Arabic.
Our names really fit us, like, Saloma is really calm, and she's broken up more fights than I can count. I, well, I am really different, though parents named me for my crazy, fiery red hair. But, it turns out that 'outstanding' is really me.'
"Sal!" Zea called to her.
"Zea!"(you know, Z-ah) She yelled back. "Where were you?"
"In detention." She said. By then they were close enough to stop yelling.
Sal groaned. "What did you do this time?"
"I refused to play basketball. On a free day." Zea fumed.
"Man, what is it with you and sports?" She asked while shaking her head.
"Simple. I hate them, and they hate me." Zea said.
Sal rolled her eyes. Her sister was just so weird. Her hair was crazy and a bright red.(If you've seen the movie Up, then you know what I'm talking about.) Her attitude was crazier. But then, she wouldn't be my favorite sister if she wasn't crazy.
"Well, whatever. We need to get home! We are sleeping over at Dad's today, remember?" Sal said.
"Yeah, yeah. I can't possibly forget with you reminding me every 5 seconds!" Zea said while rolling her eyes. Their parents were divorced, so they alternated between their mom's and dad's houses every week.
"Come on, then!" Sal called, already running towards their dad's house.
"Hey! Wait up, Sal!" Zea laughed. Then she paled when she saw her sister was still looking at her, and not where she was going. She was headed right for the forest.
In their town, there was a rumor about that forest, that there once was a young princess who hated her kingdom, so she ran away into the forest. When her father figured out that she ran away, he all of his guards after her.
While in the forest, the princess saw the guards. She was tired and hungry, so she decided to go back, and she walked up to the guards. The guards, who were frightened of the forest, heard something walking towards them. Not thinking it could be the princess, they threw their spears at it. Only after it was too late did they realize what they had done.
The princess, in a rage, screamed out a curse. She said,
"For killing me, there is now a curse upon this forest! Any young girl who takes one step inside this forest shall disappear!"
And now Sal was running towards this forest. We had lost our Aunt to this forest.(Before they were born, when their mother and their aunt were about 15)
"SAL!" Zea screamed.(Hence the caps lock ;)) She started running towards Her sister.
"What?" She looked confused. Then she turned around and saw where she was headed. She skidded to a halt half a foot from the forest.
Zea sighed when she saw her sister stop just before the forest. Then she realized she was still running. Fast. Before she could slow down, she barreled into her sister. Sending them both into the forest.
Sal and Zea screamed as the forest floor seemed to melt away as they were plunged into a swirling violet light.
"What's happening, Zea?" Sal asked, scared. Zea gave Sal a blank look, showing her she had no tricks to get them out of this one.
So they closed their eyes in wait of the unknown.
