Chapter One

Kylie POV

Teacher Says What?

I sighed. It was another boring day at Kelmscott Senior High School. I was sitting in my maths class, the first class I had today. The teacher was rambling on about algebraic equations or something, either way; it was my least favorite topic. So far today everything had gone wrong. Firstly, my hair would not co-operate (I know what you're thinking, big deal right?), secondly I put my shoes on the wrong feet and didn't realize, I had this ewwy sticky stuff on my shirt and failed to realize that as well, so I had to find a new shirt. I also managed to trip over empty air in front of everyone and fall flat on my face. That had been embarrassing, and the bright side? The day was still young.

"Kylie," I dimly heard a voice say. "Kylie!" I looked up and saw my math teacher, Mr Something-or-other, standing in front of me. Did I mention he was glaring?

"Um, sir," I told him. "You're blocking my view of the board. How am I supposed to learn if you're anything?"

Yeah, I know. I would never usually say anything like this but today I was on auto pilot. Could you blame me with the day I'd had? The teacher went to retort angrily at me but was cut off by the bell. The whole class rose and left in about five seconds flat. I literally sprinted.

Once I was clear of the class room I slowed down and my best friend Ally who was in all of my classes caught up to me.

"Hey," Ally said. "You know you really shouldn't provoke a teacher who hates every living thing, and possibly even every dead thing. Maybe themselves."

I laughed at Ally. She could be and was so weird sometimes.

"Are you okay?" she asked me quietly

"Huh? Oh, yeah," I replied. "I spent the night reading fan fictions," now it was Ally's turn to laugh at me.

"Find any good ones?" she asked as if she already knew the answer

"I only read the ones with Boo-Boo in them," I told her. I loved Boo-Boo; he was like Taylor only single and cooler. Ally looked at me expectantly with her eyebrows raised. I sighed. "Fine, there was one where Boo-Boo imprinted on this girl who's been his friend since like forever. Though she keeps going out with all of these really bad guys, who are jerks. It's a song-fic for You Belong with Me by Taylor Swift."

"Awesome," Ally replied brightly.

We had now arrived at our English class. Vicki, Jerri, and Tegan joined us. We all waved at each other and started talking. Just then our teacher opened the door and ushered us into the torture chamber known as THE ENGLISH CLASSROOM.

-After HORRIBLE English-

"LUNCH!" Ally and Jerri yelled running from the classroom.

"Are they alright?" Vicki asked

"They're being normal, what do you expect?" I questioned

"Fair enough," Tegan said with a laugh

Once we were at the bottom of the stairs we found Jerri and Ally standing there with an arm around each other and the other hand on their hip facing us.

"Hurry up!" Ally exclaimed and walked off causing Jerri to stagger. We all caught up to Jerri.

"She moved," Jerri complained while pouting. We all laughed at the expression on his face.

"There, there," I said and patted Jerri's shoulder

"Don't patronize me," he yelled and followed Ally

"Weird," Vicki commented

"I'm hungry," was Tegan's brilliant response.

We three musketeers walked off to the year ten lunch area. Ally had ditched her group today and was sitting with us. Ally and Jerri were already seated and talking. The second that we got into hearing distance they froze and glared at us. We ignored them and sat down. None of us really bothered to eat at school, apart from when Ally or Jerri brought chocolate or chips or lollies and we stole off them. A small little fact that not many people knew was that Ally and Jerri were related. They were cousins but we still referred to them in our minds as brother and sister.

"What do we have now?" Ally whined

"Dunno," Jerri muttered from where he was leaning on Tegan's shoulder half asleep.

"We have..." I pulled out my timetable to check. "Science and then LOTE."

"Yay!" Ally exclaimed. "I wish I hadn't asked.

"Then why did you?" Tegan wanted to know.

"Good question." Ally said and went into her own world

The bell went and we all rushed to science before our teacher could classify us as late and give us a detention. Well in Ally's case, more detentions. Ally was always late, her motto was, "I don't give a fuck if they want me to get there on time! I'll spite them and be late." And she was

"Detention!" the science teacher yelled as she strolled in late. Ally shrugged and sat down with a grin. Ally sat next to me, for some reason she reminded me of Kellan in the books Twilight. She was carefree and didn't seem to let much bother her.

-Two torturous sessions later and some more detentions given to Ally-

"Lunch," Ally said running out the LOTE classroom. She now had pictures all up and down her arm (she bored easily). Ally bounced up and down on her heels as she waited for me.

"C'mon, Kylie food," She said and grabbed my am as soon as I was in range.

All pulled me through the huge crowds of students in the halls. Ally somehow was on the worst sugar high ever, she hadn't even had any sugar yet today. As we approached, Tegan, Vicki and Jerri, I realized that Jerri was also on a sugar high. I was glad that I wouldn't be eating anything today. Whenever Ally and Jerri were on sugar highs they always managed to make the food you were eating sound gross and unappetizing.

Ally and Jerri spent the whole lunch break jumping up and down and annoying people in other groups. Azzi and Bek from ally's normal group soon joined them and came over to eat with us.

The bell went and both Ally and Jerri groaned. We had Society and Environment, the worsterest subject ever. I walked grimly with Ally to our classroom. Today was the day that we would be receiving the results of a national test we did. I was sure that we would all be lectured on how badly we had done and how we could've done better. It was all something to do about us being a high level class therefore we have high expectations of us.

Even though we had been walking as slow as possible we made it to our class. The class was already walking in.

"Take a deep breath," Ally told me. "It may be your last."

'Well that's a reassuring thought," I muttered as we entered the classroom.

Ally and I moved towards our normal spot at the back of the classroom. We were the second last group of people into the classroom.

As the teacher stood up to address the class, I saw that she had the test results in her hands. She looked right at me and smiled a bit and gave me a wink. Ally must have seen

"Oh, I hate to tell you Kyles, but you is so dead," Ally paused. "Can like, I have all your stuff when you die? That includes money."

I couldn't be bothered to answer Ally's possible teasing, she might have been telling the truth. I wouldn't know. I was too far gone in a panic attack.

The whole class fell quiet.

"Kylie," the teacher said grimly. "Stand up."

I did slowly. I had no idea what was going on and even though there was a whole class full of kids, I still feared for my life.

"Class," the teacher announced. "This girl here is a legend." My face fell in shock; this was sort of an odd way to start insulting someone. "This girl, got the highest mark in Australia for this history test and as a prize, she gets to go to Washington with four friends, free of charge. "

Oh my god, I thought. This had to be a prank or I was having a really bad illusion. I saw Ally look up at me in shock. So it wasn't a dream then, I dimly realized. I heard the teacher tell me to sit down but I couldn't react. Ally grabbed my arm and yanked me back into my seat. The teacher came over with a fat envelope in her hand and said something. I sure hoped that Ally was paying more attention than me and knew what the teacher had said.

In what seemed like no time at all, the bell that signaled the end of the day went and everyone went. Ally had to drag me out of the school; I was still frozen in shock. The movement of walking seemed to help and I eventually snapped out of the shock of the prize.

I walked home with Ally and we both discussed the wolf pack in the Twilight Saga. As we figured it, the wolf pack in real life would have to be so much better than the actors, there was no way that they could measure up. I told Ally that I doubted it possible for real life werewolves to be better than the actors.

Ally and I lived on the same street across the road. I knew that I would definitely be taking Ally with me if I went to Washington. I'd miss her too much otherwise. We got home pretty quick and split our own separate ways across the street. I unlocked my houses door. I knew that neither of my parents would be home yet, at least for a while. I grabbed a can of soft drink from the fridge, ditched my bag and crashed on the couch.

I had the envelope the teacher had given me in Society and Environment and opened it. Inside was information about my trip to Washington. All expenses were paid; four friends and I would be staying around first beach in La Push. There was a picture of first beach and it looked amazing. All of us would be provided with credit cards, with no limit and for any type of shopping. Everything was prepared and now I had to tell my parents, get their permission and choose which friends to take.

I heard my Dad enter the house after his day at work. He was bustling about in the kitchen probably making a tea or coffee, or something. I got up and walked into the kitchen to talk to him.

"Dad," I said to vet his attention. He turned and looked. "Today at school I won a trip to Washington in a test and I get to take four friends and I was wondering if I could go. Please? Oh yeah, All expenses will be paid and everything." I told him

I held out the envelope and my Dad took it.

"I'll read through it and talk to your Mum about it. Your Mum won't mind though, I'm sure."

My Mum was a carefree spirit and didn't think about problems. She'd be fine with me going to Washington

"Thanks," I said and walked off to go on fan-fiction

I needed to continue reading that story about Kiowa.

-Four hours later around eight o'clock-

"Kylie," my Dad called

I quickly finished reading the last chapter of my story and closed it before going to my Dad

Once I was in the same room as my Dad he continued talking

"You can go on the trip, and you don't have to take either your mother or me."

"Thanks," I said and hugged my Dad. "Can I..." I started. Dad held out the envelope. I grabbed it and ran to the front door.

"Where are you going?" Dad asked

"To see Ally," I called back.

I ran across the road, of course I checked for cars first and sprinted to Ally's front door. I knocked and waited. The door was suddenly pulled open and I jumped. Ally stood there grinning

"Whoops," she said

"That was so not an accident," I told her

"Of course making you jump wasn't an accident," she told me slowly. "So what's up Kylie?" she asked back to her normal self, though she did look tireder than normal.

"You get to come to Washington with me," I blurted out happily in a rush.

Ally let out a squeal and went forward to hug me but was prevented by the screen door. She quickly opened the screen door and I was engulfed in a hug.

"I love you," she said. "I'll go and ask my Mum. 'She told me. She gestured that I should come in, I did. Ally's house was like a second home to me

Ally disappeared quickly and I locked the door behind me and walked off down the hall towards Ally's room. I went to Ally's room and was confronted by a whole heap of wolf pack pictures. I looked for the ones of Boo-Boo and stared at them.

"Boo," a voice said quietly behind me. Nevertheless, I jumped. I turned around and glared at Ally. She was grinning like a Cheshire Cat. I looked at her carefully. "Mum said yes," I screamed and launched myself at her.

"Awesome," I said

"So," Ally said. "Who else are you taking and are you going to let me breathe again anytime soon?"

I looked down and saw that I had Ally's neck in a death grip

"Sorry," I told her and let go. "I'll probably take Tegan, Vicki and Jerri"

"I wonder if there'll be a wolf pack over in Washington." Ally mused

"I doubt it"

"You're a downer," Ally said sadly

"Whatever. I gotta go, cya," I said and went to the front door and let myself out.

"Cya," Ally said from her spot behind me as she locked the door.

I ran back home and fell asleep.

My sleep that night was filled with wolves and Jerri and Ally disappearing in many ways into a wood, with two mysterious boys
