LIES
This story is based off McFly's music video "Lies", hope you enjoy it! I do not own Just My Luck, or McFly. I only own my characters Elena and Holly.
Chapter 1 (Elena's P.O.V.)
I could hear doors opening and slamming shut, people shuffling their feet across the floor.
"Keep moving!" Katina yelled. We must have new prisoners.
"Mate look, water!" A voice called. He must have been one of the new prisoners because nobody has a weird accent like that here.
"Get that one!" Another voice said. Wait a minute; was Queen Irene actually giving prisoners water?
"Freeze." Guess not, she sounds a bit angry. Wish I could see the look on her face, but with this stupid helmet I can't see a thing!
"Hey stop pushing!"
"We what our water!" The footsteps walked past me and I could hear Queen Irene's heels following them. The hall became silent until I couldn't hear their footsteps anymore.
"Hey, that kid didn't pay for my water!" The hall was then filled with yelling and footsteps chasing after the others.
"Follow them!" A person yelled as they ran by me and tripped over my foot.
"Get out of the way Elena!" I couldn't tell who it was but I just ignored them and they kicked me in my leg.
"Elena!" I looked up, forgetting I had the helmet on. "Let's get out of here!" It was Holly, my best friend and another prisoner. She unlatched the helmet and removed it.
"Thank god! I never thought I'd get that thing off!" I looked up at Holly and smiled once I saw her short dirty blonde hair, ice blue eyes, and her smile that reminded me of the good old days. She pulled me off the floor and we followed the others to the arena. "What's going on?" I asked as we pushed through the crowd.
"Some people had a vehicle that runs on water, it broke down, so the only was Queen Irene would give them water is if they performed a song for her. If she likes them, they left with water, if she doesn't like it then they become prisoners." Holly explained.
"Oooo ouch, that's harsh." Holly laughed and we ran behind the stage just as four guys began playing a fast pop rock song.
"Come on Elena, this is our chance to escape!" I looked from the guys to Holly and smiled. We ran to the right end of the arena to a wall, I placed my right hand on it.
"Back up." Holly took a couple steps back and the area around my hand began glowing orange and the wall melted away.
"Nice." Holly said as she jumped through the wall.
"Thanks for the compliment, but can we go now?" She laughed and began running across the dried up beach. There were loud exploding noises coming from the fortress. "What the hell was that?" I asked turning to Holly, she just shrugged.
"Hey before we go any further you should check for land mines." I nodded. I put my hands to the ground and separated the ground. There was a mini explosion from the ground that blew up in front of Holly's face. I looked up and I couldn't help but laugh once I saw the charcoal on her face. "Gee thanks Elena." I continued to laugh. "Unbelievable." She pulled her leather pouch off her belt and unscrewed it and she began manipulating the water to wash her face. Suddenly I felt a vibration through the ground and go through my body, there was a vehicle coming from a car.
"Hide!" I whispered loudly. I stomped on the ground a group of rocks popped up around me so I could hide. The vehicle, which was an old van, came to a halt letting a loud exploding noise come from the back of the vehicle.
"Wait what?" She finally asked. I looked up over the rocks and the saw the same boys from the fortress were getting out of the van. "They looked at Holly and Holly immediately manipulated the water into a ball that began spinning above her hand.
"Whoa mate, check out the bird!" One of the guys said. He had short wavy brown hair, blue eyes and he was covered in dirt. He was wearing dark blue jeans, dark blue sneakers, a plaid shirt and a dirt scarf.
"How are you able to do that?" Another guy asked. He had a gray long sleeve shirt under a white short sleeve shirt with a matching gray tie, blue jeans, black converses, and a pair of goggles around his neck. He had blonde hair that looked like it was partially braided and brown eyes.
"Do what?" Holly asked taking a couple steps away from them.
"Controlling the water." The same guy asked.
"I've always been able to control water." The four guys all looked at each other.
"That's wicked!" Another guys yelled. He was taller than the others and he was wearing gray jeans, a dirty gray hoodie, and black combat boots. He had brown hair styled in a Mohawk and blue eyes.
"Uh…thanks?" Holly said as she slowly put the water away. These guys must be knew, almost all royal families have special abilities, only Holly and I are were lucky enough to share the elements.
"I'm Tom; this is Danny, Harry, and Dougie." I didn't see the other guy until now. He was wearing a black t-shirt under a gray jacket with a mechanical wrist brace on his right wrist; he was also wearing gray camouflage shorts and black combat boots that weren't tied up all the way. He had messy blonde hair that had things sticky out of it, blue eyes with dirt around them; he even had other objects hanging from his gages.
"Do you think you could help start up our van?" Tom asked. Holly thought to herself but finally nodded. Damn Holly, always having to be nice doesn't even stop to think if it's a trap to get us back to the fortress. Tom walked over to the van and lifted the hood for Holly. She looked up at him and he smiled, she smiled back. She pulled out her water again and put it inside the hood somewhere; I was too far to see. Danny ran to the driver's seat and started the engine.
"Yes!" Danny yelled from inside the van. Suddenly I felt vibrations again and I heard a chainsaw getting closer.
"Target in sight." A robotic voice said. I saw a robot come from behind the van swinging the chainsaw.
"Danny look out! Psychotic robot with a chainsaw!" Dougie yelled making Danny jumped out of the van and run to the other side of the van.
"Aaah!" The other boys yelled as the ducked to get out of the way.
"Elena!" Holly called. I kicked the boulder in front of me making it run straight into the robot. I noticed the guys were a bit surprised when they saw me behind the boulder.
"Can we try not getting into any more trouble?" I yelled back to Holly sarcastically, but she wasn't amused.
"That would be nice but that robot isn't staying down!" She yelled as the robot got back up.
"Oh shit."
What do you guys think??
