Hey y'all... i don't really talk like that.
I finally did another one. Only like a gajillion days later. My bad. I hope someday I'll get better at this thing.
Anyways, presenting LUCAS!... i'm doing the new charector dance in my head...
Well, this is it… thought Reina, entering the gym. The large room was somewhat crowded and all of the freshmen were huddled in groups. Reina felt a bout of nervousness. She was older than them all and felt like she was probably still going to do worse than them all. And on top of it she was alone. Reina wanted to think that nothing could get worse, but she thought about it and figured it could. Feeling alone and awkward, she headed towards the bleachers to take a seat and wait for Boomer to arrive and start the show. She was busy thinking about how to impress Boomer and how to get her powers to work for her for once that zoned out while walking up the stairs and hit her shin on the very first step. To make it worse, when she bent down to rub her ankle, someone coming down the stops accidentally tripped over her and fell, knocking her flat on her back while spilling coffee all over her. Yep, it could defiantly get worse.
Sputtering on the coffee,(Reina hated the taste) she tried to get back up, but slipped in the coffee and fell back on her back again. "My coffee!" grumbled the voice of the guy who fell on her, "you owe me another one."
"Yeah, sure," muttered Reina, who could barely see the guy since her coffee-soaked bangs were now in her eyes, "wanna help me up?"
The guy made a scowling noise and leaned down through the crowd to help her up. "Hey, I'm Reina Wilder and I'm going to be a sophomore," Reina offered the standard greeting while pushing her wet bangs out of her eyes and trying to dry her face with the microscopic dry spots left on her shirt.
He sort of smirked and snorted at the same time. "Russ Moore, sophomore," he drawled, "and you owe me more coffee."
"Russ, Wait up!" a guy yelled crashing through the crowd and almost falling over when he tried to stop right at them.
"What Lucas? Because of you I'm already late to Spontaneous Speeches, what more do you want?"
"Oh, uhh, never mind. Sorry, see you later?" stuttered Lucas
"Sure, whaaatever," said Russ walking away.
"Hey, I'm Lucas Peace, sophomore," the guy introduced himself.
"Hey, Reina Wilder, also sophomore. Are you new too?" she asked getting a look at Lucas.
"Yeah, but my bro came here a few years ago," he was fairly good-looking at an average height, with shaggy brown hair which contrasted nicely with his alabaster skin and ice blue eyes, "I see you've met Russ's coffee though. He's supposed to be my guide, but I think he keeps trying to ditch me. Would you mind if I hung out with you instead?"
Oh, his hair's a pretty color, Reina thought, did I just think his hair was pretty? Ugh, I am such a creeper, she groaned inwardly.
"Oh course, actually, thanks, if it weren't for you, I'd be all alone too. Wanna go get a seat." Reina gestured towards the bleaches.
The bleachers were pretty packed, but they managed to find squish together into an aisle just as the lights flickered. "HELLO YOU NEWBIES. OR SOULD I SAY NOOBIES? HAHA," cried a loud man from the center of the gym, laughing at his own joke.
"Guess that's Boomer," whispered Lucas.
"I would say so," nodded Reina.
"ALL RIGHT LETS LET THE OLDIES GO FIRST SHALL WE? IF YOU'RE NOT A FRESHMAN, GET'CHER ASS DOWN HERE."
"Oh goody, I think that's us," Reina rolled her eyes.
"At least we're first. Then we can leave earlier."
There were only a few other sophomores, but most looked just as nervous as Reina. She got in line behind Lucas. The line moved faster than she was hoping for and soon she was first. As she stood there silently panicking and trying not to let the ninja jellyfish in her stomach make her pass out, she was amazed by Lucas's powers as they froze and cracked a car that almost landed splat on him. "HERO," yelled Boomer, no surprise there.
Reina took a couple shallow breathes and stepped onto the platform. Please let this work, please let this work, please let this work, she thought, focusing on turning levitating and thinking light, fluffy thoughts. I am a balloon. Or a bird. Or superman. I can do this.
A few seconds later, she was was levitating a few yards up. YES! Oh my freaking YES!
Now, if she could turn invisible this would be perfect. She focused harder and pretended she wasn't there. She was gone for a good thirty seconds before she suddenly turned into a sadly visible stripey cat which hovered there for a few seconds before floating to the ground. "INTERESTING. COULD USE SOME WORK. HERO."
ho yeah. i did i second chapter. nothing can stop me now!
Please leave me a review on how it was.
I like how it's been going so far, but i haven't thought of a plot yet and i should probably get cracking before i do something i regret.
I'll try to get another chapter out before next week...
