A new fanfic! BE HAPPY! It's an AU of sorts for my favorite movie "Carrie". Chapter 1
Living in a near-apocalyptic world can be depressing. Half the population is gone. The land is barren. Grass and flowers are dead. Temperatures go from scorching hot to glacial cold. Living in a near-apocalyptic world can especially be horrid if you're a social outcast. Take Carrie White for example.
She's a 12-year-old girl eighth grader with dirty blond hair, blue eyes, and freckles. Her mother, Margaret White, is a religious-fanatic, often cloaked in black, believing everything is a sin. Carrie's very timid and often the object of mockery by her classmates. The harshest scorns come from the popular kids, including: Chris Hargensen (short for Christine), Billy Nolan, Norma Watson, Freddy Holt, Freddy DeLois, Kenny Garson, Helen Shryes, and Sue Snell.
The day is Friday. Carrie was about to leave her home, which is in fact an abandoned rectory. She had her books, pencils, binder, and book bag. She didn't have anything to be dressed in, though. "Momma, I don't have anything to wear" said Carrie. "I made this outfit for you" replied Margaret. She held up a summer sailor suit. "Thanks Momma, I'll put it on" retorted Carrie. She departs into her bedroom to put on the sailor suit, but she's distinguished she'd be made fun of.
When she arrived at school, she was meant with laughter. She was very much embarrassed. Why do they always have to laugh at me? thought Carrie. "Hey there, Sailor Your-Anus" rudely remarked Chris Hargenson as she pasted by Carrie. Throughout the day, she received insults similar to "Sailor Your-Anus".
Gym has ended, and the girls were redressing. As Carrie revealed herself from metamorphosis, the girls laughed. They all happened to chant "Sailor Your-Anus! Sailor Your-Anus" over and over. Suddenly, the girls hurled objects at her: wrinkled papers, paper towels, pens, pencils, even tampons! One girl acquired toilet paper and tossed it at her head! Poor Carrie burst into tears, but the girls showed no sympathy.
Miss Collins, the gym teacher, exploded into the locker room. She was clearly angry and disappointed for the girls' revolting actions. "What are you doing? Knock it off!" She pulled aside Sue Snell. "Sue, what's going on?" asked Miss Collins. "They're making fun of her outfit" replied Sue. Miss Collins pushed through the crowd. She embraced Carrie to try to comfort her.
"Carrie, it's okay, it's okay" Miss Collins remarked softly. Shockingly, a light bulb burst. "The day is over, will you all just leave?" heatedly said Miss Collins. "It's okay Carrie. Those girls were making fun of your outfit?" Carrie nodded 'yes.' "I don't see why. You look cute. Don't worry; I'll take care of them. It's the end of the day, you ought to go home." Carrie grabs her school supplies, and heads home.
She strolled home. As she walked, a neighborhood boy, Bobby, rides past her on a bike. "Creepy Carrie! Creepy Carrie!" Bobby shouts. Bobby rides into a tree, but his face reveals he didn't do it on purpose. As he groans in pain, Carrie merely walks on.
Who cares what the critics say? JK, REVIEW!
