Major changes in Characters and plot
-
It was finally the last period of the day and the twins together with the 11th graders were sitting at their respective seats listening to students who were reporting about their family history. It was finally the day that the siblings will get their very first car. Well, that's if they'll get 6 A's.
One of the twins became conscious of the time. Checking her blue wrist watch, she said to her younger twin who was sitting beside her, "10 minutes more and we're finally out of here."
"Nikki, do you think we can ever get the car?" Her twin sister asked.
"Of course we can. We're down with five A's and if will get..." Nikki was cut off by Mr Riley calling out the next presenter.
"Franchesca Colin Valentine, you're up."
"Oh crab," the younger Valentine murmured, "Wish me luck." Colin got up from her seat with her Deadpool back pack and made her way to the teachers table.
"Ok, Franchesca, you may now start." Mr Riley signalled the black haired teen.
"For my family genealogy report, I decided to do it on my great grandfather, Sebastian Mari Valentine," Everyone listened as Colin's slight English accent filled the room, "He is a very famous man. In fact, he was the one who discovered the Arctic Circle together with some of the English explorers which is a very big deal..."
"I bet he had tea with the queen," the whole class turned around to where the voice came from,"Because that's what your family tree is about, right?" Before Franchesca could continue, a blonde muscular guy wearing a white shirt, decided to interrupt her. Now, every ones attention was on him.
'Trent...' she thought with anger and grudge. As expected, the blonde jock would always find ways to piss the young twin off. The two have been long bitter enemies ever since the start of high school.
"Nice one, dude!" One of his jock friends gave him a fist bump. Everyone was silent as the jocks were laughing hysterically.
The paled-skin teen took a deep breath and grinned, "Yeah, well, I bet your family tree must be a cactus because everyone on it is a prick!" Colin hissed at the blonde boy and the whole room was filled with 'Ooh!' and hysteric laughter, even Trent's friends.
The jock had a disappointed look on his face and hit one of his friends on the shoulder.
"People, remember, Responsibility and respect!" Mr Riley silenced the whole class and told Colin to proceed.
"What I was about to say before I was rudely interrupt," She said while glancing at Trent, "is that our grandfather was considered as one of the greatest explorer during his time." Colin pulled out something rusty and metallic from her bag, "This one here is a sextant. It is used as a navigation device to find the measurement of the angle between any two visible objects." she reached for her bag again and pulled out an eye-glass, "This is my grandfather's spectacles. They aren't really that much but this things have seen a lot of cool stuffs. That includes my grandma's trousers." The whole class turned into a small laughter as Colin pulled out a thick book from her bag, "This one here is my great grandfather's journal, it contains all the wild adventures and places he has been, including the Bahamas, Germany, Brazil, China, you name it." She started flipping through the pages then closed it, "They're confidential. For family eyes only." She looked at her twin and smile.
"My grandfather isn't only an explorer but an inventor as well. He invented sorts of stuffs, including military weapons and technologies. He decided to give up exploring and exchanged it in building for his own industry in which is now the Nebula Industries. Unfortunately, my grandfather, at the age of 50, being the genius that he was ended up in a mental hospital blabbering something about an ice-man until his death. Thus, ending this report."
The whole class applauded Colin and just in time, the school bell rang, signaling that class is finally over. The students got up and rushed for the door together with their bags. Colin was left gathering her stuffs and placing it inside the red and black backpack when her sister came over her. "Hey, great job on that report, sis. Really proud of you!"
"Thank you! I've been working on that one all night." She said while placing her bag over her shoulder.
Her sister smiled, "I'll wait for you by our locker. You better get that A!" Nikki said as she made her way for the door.
"Don't tell me what to do." Colin retorted earning a giggle from her older sister.
Colin turned her attention to Mr Riley who was looking at a stack of paper. "So, Mr Riley, how was it?" She asked with both hands behind her back. Colin has never been so nervous in her life, in fact, she was never nervous until now.
"Well, Franchesca, you never fail to impress," he said while writing something on the paper with a red marker. Colin tried peeking at the paper to see what the teacher wrote until the paper was held out to her, "A plus."
"Awesome!" Colin had a huge smile on her face and thanked the teacher before leaving the room while skipping.
"So Ariel, I was thinking that maybe we should try 'Ignorance' for our first song and 'That's what' you get' for the finale." Nikki was talking to a black-haired asian teen who was standing by her locker.
"That's a great idea but we might need to ask Colin about that. Speak of the devil. Here she is. And she's skipping." Ariel said with a little disgust on her face.
Ariel is Colin's best friend ever since the second grade. They're the type of pair that you would call 'weird and awesome'.
"I got it! I got it! I got it!" Colin said when she finally reached her sister and her best friend.
"Really?! Please tell me you're not kidding!" Nikki said with hope in her eyes.
"It is. See!" Colin held her paper and Nikki grasp it immediately.
"It's an A," she said softly,"It's an A!" Her voice got louder with the paper up in the air when she finally realize what it was.
"Congrats guys, now you're finally going to drive a car!" Ariel tapped both sisters in the shoulder. Then a tall boy and a slightly fat guy walked towards them.
"Are we celebrating something here?" The tall thin guy said with his arms stretched down in each side of him.
"Max! Teddy!" Colin jumped to the two boys and gave them a hug before pulling out,
"We're getting the car!"
"About time you twin freaks are having a car." Teddy, the fat one said.
The twins laughed before Nikki spoke, "Tell me about it."
The group have been very close friends ever since grade seven. They all share a common nationality which is Filipino. While the twins are English-Filipina, Ariel is Japanese-Filipina and Max is a Fil-Am. They all went to the same school in the Philippines from the fifth grade to the tenth grade. And transferred in America in the eleventh grade because of some reasons. Ariel's reason is because her parents wants to stay in the US cause that's where most of their relatives lived. Her father is such a family man.
For Max, is that he needs to stay and take care of his grandmother since he has no one left at home back in Asia because his parents travel across the globe.
Teddy's reason is pretty much sad. Ever since his mother's death, his family couldn't handle the emotional pain, forcing them to move to another country and start a new life.
For the twins, is that their parents are divorced. But their process is different. Since some kids would move from their parent's house to another, to them, it's the other way around. Their parents would be the ones who will move. This time, it would be their father who would stay with them while their mother is staying in the Philippines.
So pretty much their reason includes something about family life.
"I hope it's a Ferrari!" Max exclaimed.
"I prefer a Porsche. You two are too young to have a Ferrari." Ariel suggested earning a giggle from the group.
"A Pontiac Solstice would be a nice ride." Nikki said while checking her nails.
Her twin sister looked at her while raising an eyebrow with her arms crossed over her chest, "Really? Cause I was thinking about that latest Camaro."
The happy atmosphere suddenly died down as tensions started building between the two giving the group an awkward silence until Teddy spoke.
"C'mon you two. We don't have to worry about that. You guys are rich!"
"And I'm pretty sure your old-man would either give each of you a car or share a Porsche or he's a cheapo." The Japanese girl smiled earning a small laugh from the others.
"Y'know what? You're right, we really don't have to argue about this whole thing. Anyway, I respect my sister's choices even though I know how much her taste sucks."
"Hey!" The older Valentine widen her eyes at her sister wanting to slap her at the back of her head.
The others laughed until Nikki's phone starts beeping. She pulled out her phone from her school uniform's skirt pocket and checked who the caller ID was before answering,
"Hey dad, sup?... Ok... Yeah, we're on our way out of the campus... Sure, whatever... Bye." She placed her phone back to her bag before turning back to her sister, "Dad's already waiting outside."
Her sister nodded and faced Ariel and the others, "So, I guess we should be going now. Our baby's waiting for us at the dealer's shop." She said excitedly with a sing-song voice.
"Alright, We'll be seeing you guys tonight at the concert." Max said before him, Ariel, and Teddy left.
Before the sisters could head out, Ariel decided to call one of the twins , "Hey Co-Co!"
Colin turned her head and grimaced at the sound of her nickname "Dude, we're in public!" She said, sounding a bit annoyed. One of the the students who just passed by snickered.
"I know," Ariel teased, "But I was wondering if you guys could pick me up at my house tonight, if that's ok with you."
"That is totally fine." Nikki agreed.
"Yeah, so I can dump your carcass off the car." Colin joked.
Ariel just laughed at her best friend, "Yeah, I love you too. See you guys later." She waved at the two before facing the other direction and the twins continued their way outside.
"There's our old man." Colin gestured at the man wearing an inserted white shirt was standing beside a shiny white BMW X3.
Their father smiled at them and waved his hand after finally noticing their presence, "There's my two little angels." Mr. Valentine spread out his arms and brought the twins into a hug, "So, let me see those grades."
The twins proudly handed him their set of paper marked with the letter 'A and A+'
"Mmmmh..." Their father hummed while examining the papers, "Yup, you two are alright. Now let's get you a car."
The twins smiled and quickly got in the vehicle before it drove off.
"So, what kind of car do you kids want?" Their father asked while keeping his eyes on the road.
"I'm thinking of that latest Camaro." Colin spoke up before Nikki was about to open her mouth.
"I thought we agreed on the Pontiac Solstice." Nikki glared at her younger twin.
"Technically, I said I respect your decision. I didn't say anything about an agreement."
"Yeah, well, I'm the eldest around here so I'll do the choosing." Nikki exclaimed.
"Only by sixteen minutes." Colin retorted.
Their father sighed and decided to ignore his two daughters' argument and concentrated on the road, then an idea suddenly ran through his mind. He searched the area and the big sign until he found what he was looking for, "We're here."
The two finally quite down and immediately raced to the window. Their eyes widen and their mouth slightly open.
The car gently pulled off at the parking space and finally stopped.
Their father was the first one to open his door and got out,"Come on you two, out of the car now." Their father had a huge smug on his face.
The twins finally snapped back to reality and quickly opened the vehicle door on each side of them.
"You have got to be joking!" The younger twin exclaimed.
"Dad, what is this!?" Nicole said with frustration while looking around the set of old beaten cars.
"Those, darling, are cars. Just like I promised to you." Their father smiled while looking around the place.
"Cars?! You call that a car?!" Colin snapped while pointing at a yellow beaten bug.
"Dad, you promised us a car if we give you 6 A's," Nikki said after taking a deep breath.
"And we did." Colin said while pacing back and forth.
"So that means we'll be getting a car, not garbage!"
"At your age, I would've been happy with four wheels and an engine." Their Dad responded to their outbursts, "Besides, you two should've thought of it before starting an argument."
Colin pouted and rolled her eyes, "Yeah, well if that's the case, I'd rather marry a truck."
"Dad, this is not fair." Nikki said while shaking her head.
"Life is not fair, sweethearts. This is a life lessons for you two." Dad sighed, "Even your brother went through the same thing."
The twins thought of their brother, Nicholas, who is 2 years older than them and is in first year college.
"Whatever. Let's just get this done with before Coco loses her mind." Nikki said while staring with concern at her sister who was still pacing.
A man wearing a yellow Hawaiian shirt came over to them, smiling broadly, "Ladies, Gentleman," he extended his arm to their father and shook it, "Bobby Bolivia, like the country but without the runs." He laughed and Nikki had to elbow her sister to stop her from pacing.
"Richard Valentine," their father introduced himself "And this are my daughters, Nicole and Colin." The two smiled and waved at him.
"Twins!" Bobby remarked with a huge smile.
"Yeah, and they're looking to buy their first car today,"
Bobby looked shock,"And you came to me? That makes us family! Uncle Bobby B."
He pulled the twins and lead them towards a row of cars.
"Let me talk to you, ladies. Your first enchilada of freedom awaits you underneath one of these hoods. I'm gonna tell you right now that the driver don't pick the car, the car'll pick the driver."
The twins nodded in agreement and Bobby continued, "It's a mystical bond between man and machine. Girls, I'm a lot of things but a liar isn't one of them, especially not in front of my Mammy." He waved at a woman sitting on a lawn chair of the house next to the car shop, "Hey Mammy!" The twins snickered when the woman flip off Bobby making him yell and cursed at the woman, "I'll tell you, she's deaf, you know?" He laughed again and walked towards a yellow Camaro. The twins thought that it was a pretty sleek ride although it had a few rust in it.
"This one isn't so bad," Their dad said, examining the car, "It has racing stripes."
"Yeah. It got racing- What the heck is this? I don't know nothing about this car." He looked confused and start calling out a guy named 'Manny'.
Colin quickly got behind the wheel as her sister leaned over, "This feels good." Nikki smiled as Colin mused, she started rubbing the center of the stirring wheel and Nikki narrowed her eyes.
"I've never seen this symbol before," she said while studying it.
Colin shrugged and grabbed the disco ball and the bumblebee key chain hanging by the rear view and giggled, "This one's cute." She said, referring to the word 'Bee-otch', written on the bumblebee key chain.
"How much?" Mr Valentine asked.
"I'm sorry but the car isn't for sale. Kid, out of the car." He's friendly smile turned into a serious frown.
"No, but you said the car picks the driver," Colin argued and held on the stirring wheel like her life depended on it.
"Well, maybe it just doesn't works on some people. Out of the car." He said before clearing his throat, "Now this one here is a thing of beauty." He said to a yellow bug.
"C'mon, Co. Let's just go look for another one." Nikki said to her sister and she could tell that Colin isn't going down without a fight.
"I want none of those cars," Colin responded, "I want this! I'm not going to let our High School end with that!" She gestured to the beaten cars around the lot.
"You know what dad, she's right. We should get the car." Nikki said.
Their father pondered, thinking of ways to convince the guy who was behind the yellow bug.
"This is a classic engine, right here! I sold a car the other day..."
Suddenly, the Camaro's door opened and hit the bug's door. "You ok there?" Their father asked as Bolivia got out of the car with wide eyes.
"That wasn't me!" Colin said quickly, getting out of the car.
"It's fine. I'll just get a sledgehammer," he glared at the Camaro and started yelling for Manny again, "Hey Manny! Get your clown cousin and come bust this thing out!" He looked around the lot and smiled at a particular plan, "Now this, is my favorite! Drove all the way from Alabama..."
A loud piercing shriek echoed across the place and all the car windows except for the Camaro, shattered into pieces. They covered their ears until the shriek finally died down. Bolivia looked around his lot, horrified and looked like he was about to cry. He turned to the Valentines with shaking hands and told them the price.
"Five thousand!" The twins smiled and Colin couldn't help herself but dance around earning a look from Nikki.
