The Incident
Jimena was sitting in her biology class and was bored to death. "I wish I
could get out of here", she thought. She distracted herself by drawing
random things on her notebook while staring at the back of Catty's head
who was sitting right in front of her and then looking down to see what
her drawing looked like. The first time, it looked like a circle which
seemed to be half moon and half sun. Her second drawing looked like a
flower. And her third drawing looked like. a big waste of time. She
slammed her notebook shut and looked up at the clock behind her teacher's
shoulder. She'd only gone through 10 minutes of class, and it felt like
10 hours already. While her teacher was lecturing the class about a
frog's lifespan, she saw Catty's hand quickly go up.
"Yes, Miss Turner," asked Mr. Jones with a surprised look on his face, as
if he had been talking to himself all along and that Catty's hand had
brought him back to reality.
"May I go to the nurse, I don't feel so good," said Catty, twisting her
face in a grimace
"Me neither, said Jimena. I think it's the sandwich we shared at lunch
today. Right, Catty?"
Catty gave her a surprising look, as if she didn't want Jimena to go with
her, but she turned back to Mr. Jones and nodded anyways.
As they got out of the class, Jimena was thinking about Catty's attitude
towards her while they had still been inside. As she thought about it a
little more, she realized that Vanessa, Serena, and Tianna had also been
acting weird around her lately. Even Collin seemed to have a secret that
he only shared with Serena that seemed to be about her. She shook her
head and tried to just enjoy her freedom. All of a sudden, Catty said
that she really had to go and broke into a run before Jimena had the time
to say anything. Jimena felt really hurt. She didn't know what to do. But
then, she realized that the hallway into which Catty had turned could
only lead her directly to the back of the school. Jimena smartly took a
shortcut to catch up with her quickly and confront her about the way
she'd been acting lately. She ran quickly through another hallway. Then,
she slowly opened the door that was in front of her. She saw Catty a few
feet away, her back turned to her and looking down at something while
holding her left arm up. Jimena quickly thought up what she was going to
say to Catty. She walked up to her, put her hand on Catty's shoulder and
said loudly:
"Hey Chica." But she was cut off by a weird, dark hole that appeared in
front of them and seemed to suck them in.
"Jimena!" yelled Catty. She turned around quickly to look at her. Jimena
got really scared and shook Catty's wrist while screaming "What's going
on?
Get me out of here".
But Jimena pulled on Catty's wrist so harshly that her watch fell off and
disappeared somewhere behind them, in the great tunnel that they had just
entered. Jimena and Catty felt their speed increase rapidly as they moved
through the tunnel for a few more seconds, and then, everything went
black.
I hope it was okay. Review and tell me what you think about it.
