Second Chapter! Woot! This is where the story starts so be sure to keep reading! Also thank you for commenting! You know who you are because you're the only person that commented and when flamers come along I shall share my roasted-on-a-stick-food with you!
"Destiny Morgan?" the teacher called but I didn't hear it, I was too busy falling asleep on my desk. I didn't actually hear anything until someone elbowed me and I yelped and jumped up in my seat.
"Aqui! Here! Ici!" I yelled in the three languages I knew.
"Thank you Ms. Morgan but I believe that just English is acceptable." the teacher said and most of the other students laughed.
"Yeah, sorry…" I mumbled and set my head back down on the desk.
"Dude, you've been here for a week and you're already failing." My lab partner, Darren Shan mumbled to me. (Cirque Du Freak…. Half Vampire and apparently a chemistry whiz.)
"Whatever, dude." I replied sourly. I really had a bad night, I couldn't sleep at all. I had to resort to sleep with my iPod blaring in my ears. That would have worked if I didn't know every song on there and couldn't help but sing along thus keeping me awake even more. "And if you were grammatically correct I would be a dudette." I thought about what I said for a moment then continued as Darren opened his mouth and his eyes got a devilish glint. "Don't even." I threatened.
He laughed and I was forced to wake up a little as two students came into the room, well, more like flew into the room. I looked up at the two redheaded kids on broomsticks then sunk back down. George and Fred, of course. (Yup, caught you there didn't I? Turns out one of those fake parts thrown into the story was Fred Weasly dying in the Battle.)
"I don't even want to know. Just take your seats and put your brooms in the back." The teacher said, I've been to his class ever since I got here and still forgot his name. Fred and George dismounted and walked to the back; not without "accidentally" knocking a few beakers over with their brooms.
(In case you're wondering: On a usual circumstance, with me being a new student [as in not from a novel], everyone would usually try to keep their true identities to themselves. But last week I put two and two together and came out with my answer which strangely looked like fifty four; but that's besides the point. I found out and was coerced into telling the headmaster(aka Dumbledore [Yeah, another surprise for you]) and he was actually pretty cool with it.
Turns out that only one other kid found out about the true identities of the characters (no pun included) in this school and town. I actually think he was proud of me. I sure was, considering I thought I was driving myself into the Loony Bin. Anyway, back to Chemistry.
"Okay, now that there will be no further interruptions," he stopped to glare at the red headed twins, they smiled, as if that would prove their innocence… keep dreaming guys. "I want you guys to work with your partners and create a chemical or physical change. I will give the choice of which to do as we will go over the two tomorrow." Then the teacher walked around the class giving each pair a slip of paper.
"Ms. Morgan," I jerked my head up and smoothed out my hair which was trying to create static energy.
"I'm sorry, it won't happen again." I mumbled but unfortunately didn't get off the hook that easily.
"You have already fallen asleep in my class twice and we're not even ten minutes in." he explained and I looked down sheepishly. "Falling asleep will not be tolerated in my class, or in any other classes for that matter. If you feel ill then I will write you a note to see the nurse. If you do not and I catch you sleeping again you are going to have a one week detention."
I looked sadly in the direction of Darren and he gave me an understanding nod. "Can I go to the nurse, please?" I gathered my stuff while the teacher(I really needed to find out his name) wrote my note.
"I'll give you the notes, I'll drop them off at the nurses office at lunch or when I see you in Algebra or English."
"Thanks, Darren, I owe you one."
"I know," he grinned evilly I rolled my eyes and after getting the note made my way to the nurses office.
Despite how many teenage fiction novels have been written and the amount of characters the school was actually pretty small. I found the nurses office without a problem and walked up to the door to open it.
I could tell you that that's when I went in, got in a surprisingly comfy cot, and fell asleep for a good couple of hours, woke up before lunch, and hung out with the few friends I had. If I did tell you that then I would be lying.
Instead I walked up to the door and heard the most terrifying thing I have ever heard. "I'm telling you, those idiot Morgan parents don't expect anything, those blasted kids know everything! You do know what happens if our secret gets out, don't you?" I didn't wait to hear the rest, I ran in the opposite direction and puked my breakfast an most of my guts out in the girls bathroom.
If books come alive here then I guess the villains would do the same. Now, do something for me, imagine all the villains in all the teenage fiction books. Pretty scary huh? Now imagine all of them having a grudge against you and your family. Scary doesn't even cover it.
Sorry I took so long but I've been having writer's block for this story and my Bystander one. And, you know, I'm a lazy teenager… (Don't think that has nothing to do with this.) But I just finished with Finals and am on my Christmas break so expect much more ideas and sooner updates!
