Anna
Chapter Two
I was on my third song when my older sister came barging in. She angrily grabbed my music.
"Ugh! Why don't you have any loud upbeat music, not this soft concert music!?" she fumed and stormed out. I sighed and quickly finished the concerto. I stashed my flute in the drawer of my desk and moved on to reading my two CLUE books over again.
"Anna! Gina! Wake up!" my mother yelled from downstairs.
I walked into the Band room. My friends bombarded me with hugs and tearful goodbyes.
"Sit down and be quiet!" my teacher yelled over us. She started to call people's names to come and perform their exams in her conference rooms.
"Anna Sun!" she called. Right as I stood up the room started to shake and the lights flickered and went out. The alarms started and everybody screamed and dove under their desks. I heard a rumble and things started to fall all over the place. Gradually the room stopped shaking and we all emerged out from under our desks. I looked around and I found my flute in a corner. It was all smashed and the keys had popped out. It was beyond repair.
I dusted off the mouth piece and blew the last frail note that I would ever play on that gleaming instrument. That's when the water came, it started to flood.
About five minutes later the water was still coming. I heard someone scream and yell I can't swim. The water was now up to my chin. I franticly started to propel myself to a tall building that was sticking out of the water. Then my foot hit a sharp object and it cut my foot open. I shrieked from the searing pain and got a mouthful of dirty water. I franticly tried to hold onto something, anything, so I wouldn't go under. I kicked the disgustingness with my good foot then I forgot everything and started to drown. I felt somebody grab my arm and pull me up.
"Swim!" she commanded loudly and jarred me back to reality.
"My foot!" I mumbled.
"Suck it up like a woman!" she yelled and pulled me towards the structure.
Somehow I found myself on one of the buildings ledge's. There was this cute blond guy bandaging my foot.
"Hey, I'm Lance!" he said to me.
"I'm Anna!" I winced as he poured alcohol into my bleeding laceration.
"I'm Kristina, the girl that saved you." Kristina said in a very relieved tone.
"Oh, thanks Kristina, I'm Anna." I watched as Lance finished wrapping my foot in gauze.
Then Kristina jumped back into the water. A few minutes later she yelled out to Lance. Lance dove down and soon returned carrying a brunette girl in his arms. For some reason the Kristina girl looked jealous that Lance was carrying the other girl. Lance put her down next to me.
"Is she dead?" I prodded her. He knelt down and put his ear to her chest. Kristina looked down and fingered her bracelet.
"No." Lance said and slapped her. Kristina smiled.
The girl coughed, sat up, and then she slapped Lance back.
"Ow!" Lance cringed.
"So, this is Lance and Anna, I'm Kristina, and you are-''
"Rhia" she replied.
And that's how I, Kristina, and Rhia met.
