Chapter 3

Kelly's POV

Well, Polly brought everyone I asked her to get, the only thing we're waiting on now is for Polly to get her cameras up on a projector screen and for some speakers to be set up so we can show them all exactly what happened.

By the time Polly had finished putting the finishing touches on the equipment we were all starting to get a bit restless, the girls kept asking me what was going on, but I thought it was better for them to see for themselves so I had to keep telling them to be patient.

"Everything's set up Kel" Polly said from her laptop,

"Okay then, Everybody listen up!" When they were all looking at me I continued,

"Somebody came by earlier today, a man. He was from the bank and wanted to talk to Miss. Fritton"

"Where exactly are you going with this Kel?" Celia asked looking unsure of the problem,

"Let her finish" Polly interjected before I had the chance to say anything

"Well, uh, back on topic, Polly and I were watching from the cameras and lets just say he didn't come with the best of news"

"What do ya mean Kel?" The Twins asked in unison,

"Polly, play the tape"

"You got it Kelly"

As Polly played back the footage we had seen earlier, I watched the girls faces, at first it was annoyance at the mans hurried state and horrible attitude, then it was confusion, not fully understanding what the man was trying to say, followed shortly by shock once they finally grasped the situation he was describing, quickly after came anger at being called names by the arrogant man, and next to last was amusement at Miss. Fritton's actions towards the man, and last but not least was a mix between alarm and panic once the video was over and the reality of what happened truly sunk in.

Everybody was quiet for a few moments, the Posh Totty did there 'oh my god' hand gestures quietly to themselves, the Twins were holding each others hands looking like they were trying hard not to cry, Celia was for once fully in tune with reality looking like she was about to have a panic attack, Taylor and Andrea for once had nothing to say to each other and instead were just looking at each other unsure of what to do, and since Polly and I had already been through this, we were just trying to figure out what everybody was thinking.

Finally it was Andrea who broke the silence, "So what are we gonna do Kelly" her voice wavering a bit at the end.

When she finished her question everybody looked towards me expectantly,

"Yea, ya see there's the thing, hehe, umm, I have no idea"

And that's when all hell broke loose, they all started yelling at once,

"What do you mean you don't know?"

"But you always have some sort of plan!"

"No idea at all?"

"What are we supposed to do then!"

"EVERYBODY SHUT UP!" everybody immediately silenced, Polly, never being one to yell, had a proud, smug look on her face.

"Thank you Polly, now, this was only about an hour ago, so I don't really know what we're going to do, but that doesn't mean we aren't going to do anything, it just means we don't know what it is yet. So, anybody have any bright ideas?"

I was met with blank stares.

"Don't all yell at once" I mumbled to myself

"Okay, I need you guys to focus on the problem, the schools all going to be meeting on the hockey pitch latter today-"

"Why the hockey pitch?" Tania interjected

"Because it seemed like a good place at the time and because the whole school will be able to fit and hopefully they'll all be able to hear us when we tell them what's going on and what we're going to do about it"

"But we don't know what we're going to do about it" This time it was Tara who made the comment

"I know that which is why we're all here, to come up with a solution to the problem" by now this was getting a bit irritating, we aren't going to get anything done at the pace we're going at.

"So, does anybody have an idea, I don't care if it sounds silly or impossible or just plain stupid, we need a plan."

"First we should find out exactly how much money the school owes the bank, don't ya think Kelly?' Polly offered

"That sounds like a good place to start, do you could hack into the bank and access our files or do you think that's a bit to risky?"

"Sounds do-able" Polly said with a sly smile on her face before she started tapping away at the keyboard,

"Isn't Flash coming tonight Kelly?" Taylor asked

"Yes, why?"

"Well why don't we ask him if he could help then, you know all the stuff he does, he has to be able to help us come up with something" She responded

"Yea, and it, you know, isn't really even a problem weather its completely legal or not is it?" Andrea added,

I pondered this for a moment, they did have a point after all, technically whatever we come up with didn't have to be totally legal, we just had to make sure we didn't get caught. Besides, if it had those two agreeing on things, maybe it was worth a try…

"Tonight when he gets here I'll ask him about it, but until then, keep thinking of ideas, later when we explain it to the rest of the girls we'll just say that we have a few different ideas and that we're working on them, just act like we actually know what the heck we're doing so that they don't get too freaked out about it, okay?"

"Tonight after I've talked to Flash I'll tell you where we stand on that, hopefully we'll be getting good news. Anything else?"

"Um, yea Kel, About how much money we owe…"

"Yea Pol?"

"Its over half a million pounds…"

"I thought she said that there was only a small amount left though…"

"According to this, compared to what we originally owed, there is."

"Oh…"

Its been snowing where I live for the past few days, we haven't had to go back to school yet, we probably will tomorrow though, but hopefully there will be a two hour delay or something, we have EOC's almost the same day we get back to school, I think they're giving us one day to get ready. Anyways, please remember to review and let me know what you think, hopefully the story will be able to be sped along a little bit, I think I'm going to try to get somebody to beta the story from now on, so I can have somebody else's opinion on the story before I put it out. Anyways, Peace Love and Pancakes Peoples!

I still don't own St. Trinian's :P
