A/N- Hey, I'm back! So as you can see, I have started writing a story by myself. I'm really excited for the progress I'm about to make! I have an OC in this story and her name is Ava Alexandra Addison. All a's. Hehehe. Anyway, I'm warning you right now that this might be a really long chapter so beware...Enjoy the chapter!
A few weeks later: I'm writing this a few weeks later after I posted this chapter. A couple of days ago, my favorite FanFiction author (TOBN) reviewed another one of my stories (My Freckled Love).
TOBN, if you're reading this, I was nooby at the time and kind of took your idea. How nooby and disrespectful of me! I'm really sorry and I'm trying really hard to make the plot different. Bye and please keep on reading!
Ava's POV
It was a pretty hot day for March and I was eating a red Popsicle. Since it was hot, the Popsicle was like heaven for me.
Let me introduce myself. My name is Ava Addison, I am 17 years old and I go to Whitechapel High with my best friends Ethan, Benny, Sarah, Erica, and Rory.
I met them all the way back in 8th grade when this really mean guy was bullying me about my clothes.
*Dramatic Flashback*
I tried my best to ignore him, but I couldn't handle the way he talked to me.
In the middle of criticizing my shirt, Erica stepped in with her sassy-ness and told him to back off. Here comes the funny part. After he told her that it was none of her business, she burned him really bad by saying something I don't remember.
After he backed off, she introduced me to the rest of the squad.
*Flashback ends*
So Erica is basically my sister.
The whole bullying thing is funny now that I think about it because I could've handled it and said "Nobody asked for your opinion". If something like that happened to me right now, I would've (once again) said "Nobody asked for your opinion".
Anyway, today was Easter and Ethan and his family had an egg hunt planned for us. At first, we thought we were too old to be doing this, but then we thought having some fun on Easter wouldn't hurt.
"Ava! Sweetie, it's time for the hunt!" says a voice behind me. I turn around to see my mom. "Ok, thanks for the reminder" I reply.
I'm supposed to walk to the Morgan's because they live only 5 minutes away. I promised to help prepare so my mom isn't coming yet. "Bye, mom!" I say as I walk out the door into the beautiful outdoors.
-Time Skip-
"No, put the banner on the front of the balcony" Ethan said. "Fine" I say groggily. I already tried hanging the banner up in 3 different places and he said no to all.
But the good thing is that the banner is the last thing we have to do.
Oh, I forgot to say that the banner says Happy Easter! I get a tall ladder, place it on the ground below the balcony and start hanging it up.
-Time Skip-
Unknown Third Person POV
"Ah, look at them all having fun..." The thing stepped up to the crystal ball. In the crystal ball there are 6 kids looking for eggs and laughing.
"Soon, I'll ruin their fun" the thing says. And with that, it flings a cloak around it and walks out of the room.
Ava's POV
"Ready, set, go!" I ran as fast as I could to the eggs and started grabbing them.
-Time Skip-
Unfortunatly, I only got 8 eggs. And that's the worst out of our squad. Erica got 12, Ethan got 11, Rory got 15, Sarah got 13 and Benny got a whooping 21. Jane got 9.
"Everybody!" We all turned around to see Mr. Morgan. "Me and my wife thought it would be cool to do another egg hunt. Only for the big kids"
"I'm assuming by big kids you mean us?" I say pointing at us. "Yes, I do" he replies.
"We planned this before the hunt by the way. So, I will give you a clue on where to find the next clue. The next clue will be in an egg. In fact, all of the clues are in an egg. You will know when the hunt is over when you find the last, golden egg. The note inside will tell you to go back to our backyard. The clues can be hidden anywhere. And when I say anywhere, I mean anywhere. After you're done reading the clue, put it back where it was. The prize is a secret, but I promise you, you'll like it. Also, you can't team up with anybody" he explains.
He passed out a piece of paper to all of us. On the piece of paper it said "A place that brings back a lot of memories"
Of course! When we were in 8th grade, we found a little shack where we used to hang out. We would play truth or dare, tell secrets, and sometimes just take a nap there.
I wonder how Ethan's parents found out about it though. He must've told them. Enough daydreaming. We need to win this thing.
Benny's POV
Pfft. This one's obviously the shack. Ah, good times. I look at Ava and can tell she figured it out. So, I run before her.
-Time Skip-
I'm doing so well! I'm already at my third clue and nobody but me is here! Let's see what this one says.
"A place that's very pink. I said these clues can be anywhere." Huh. Oh, that's obviously the cherry blossom near Sarah's house.
-Time Skip-
I'm he-wait, what?! I don't see any eggs. Maybe some up the tree? I look up the tree and there it is!
Nice and colorf-never mind, it's black. Black. Why is it black? Weird but, whatever.
I open up the egg and the clue says "Where should you go? Maybe more back? Don't go too slow, should you go to the shack?"
Ok, this is weird. The egg is black, the clue rhymes, and I have to go BACK to the shack? Maybe that means I'm getting closer to the end. I mean he didn't say how many clues there were.
Unknown POV
He's falling for my trick. I smile and run to the shack.
Benny's POV
I'm here, but I still don't know where to find the egg. I was already here and the first thing I saw when I walked in was the egg. The first thing I saw.
Ohhhhhh. I'm supposed to look around. I didn't look around that time because I already saw the egg first thing when I came in. I look behind the little cabinet we put in here. No egg.
"Looking for this?" A female voice I don't reconize says. I quickly turn around to see a hooded figure holding an egg. "Who are you? I thought all of this supernatural stuff ended" I ask.
"Today was the day that I finished off my last victim and killed him. My crystal ball showed me all of you which meant that you are now my victims" she said. I could tell that she was smiling.
"Well, we're not dealing with you today. It's freaking EASTER!" I say with all of the confidence I have. "Too bad" she says firing a fireball at me.
"What is going on in here?!" I hear somebody shout. Sarah, Ethan, Erica and Rory appear in the doorway. Erica pounces on the girl and almost bites her until she says "Ok, ok, ok. I'll leave. But I'll come back for more"
She stands up, flings her cloak around herself and disappears. "Huh. We didn't even get her nam-" I can barely finish my sentence before the girl appears again and says "My name is Ash..." She takes off her hood and reveals her face.
She has brown and curly hair, tan skin, and hazel eyes. After about 30 seconds she puts on her hood and repeats the disappearing process.
There's an awkward silence so I say "We should probably go outside" I walk out to see a surprised looking Ava. She must've seen the whole thing. "Well, at least we won't have to hide anything anymore" I mumble.
"Happy Easter?" I say with a nervous grin.
A/N- That was probably the longest chapter I've ever written. Well, at least I'm really excited for the rest of the story. Thanks for reading and a review would be nice! :)
