The long awaited chapter four! Well two days really but still... Enjoy.
"Now Andrea, what does Polly value above anything else?" Annabelle asked, pacing in front of the Emo who felt very much like a student in an ACTUAL proper lesson. Though it wasn't as bad as she remembered but maybe that was because it was Annabelle playing teacher… She quickly banished that train of thought from heading into dangerous territory.
"Her computers," She replied and the brunette nodded, smiling.
"Yes and so that means…?" She prompted, turning to face Andrea.
"…That we have to do something to her computers?" The Head Emo guessed.
"Exactly and I have a plan because what does Polly HATE the most?" Annabelle smirked, folding her arms across her chests.
"Getting things wrong," Andrea returned and she got a nod as confirmation.
"We are therefore going to combine those two things. Messing with her computers… and getting things wrong," Belle explained.
"… But… Belle… don't you remember what happened to the last person who touched Polly's computers?" The Emo reminded her. The Head Geek broke into her medical files and changed just about everything, the girl was put in a sterile environment in some top secret military base or something apparently whilst they did testing on her, the Pentagon got involved and everything. They thought she'd got some new super disease or something that could wipe out the whole of mankind. She refused to talk about it when she did come back but she wouldn't so much as glance at a laptop after that.
"Yes I do remember. HOWEVER… we aren't going to get caught," Annabelle said slyly.
"Polly's got cameras everywhere…" Andrea replied uncertainly and Belle sat down opposite her on another chair.
"It won't matter because what she sees won't mean anything. For this, all I need is a laptop… It's quite ironic really. Polly was the one who taught me how to break into high security files…" She smiled and after returning it slightly the Head Emo sighed softly.
"Alright then… but if this goes wrong…" She began. She didn't need to finish that sentence.
"It won't. I promise," Annabelle swore and Andrea allowed herself to believe her, if only for her own self assurance…
They decided that be able to fully appreciate Polly's reaction they would have to remain in the dorms and be sat right there whilst the Geek was getting more and more frustrated. Annabelle set up the laptop and Andrea lounged beside her with a book, pretending to be interesting in it despite the fact she'd been on the same page for half an hour. It took Annabelle a while to set it all up so that it couldn't be traced but when she sat back with a proud grin and nodded slightly to the Emo at her side, Andrea still couldn't help be somewhat awed. Of course Belle was smart but tricking Polly?
"Nice one," She murmured and she didn't realise she said it until after she'd spoken and she grimaced slightly as Belle smiled. That sounded like something Taylor would say… She shuddered. "That very nearly sounded Chav Andrea. Are you feeling alright?" Belle teased and the pale skinned girl gave her a flat glare.
"Fine… thank you," She muttered curtly which only made Annabelle smile wider but Andrea wasn't fine, she was feel nervous and slightly giddy and it she suspected it had nothing to do with the epic prank they were about to-… Wait a minute… Epic?... Since when has she used 'epic'?
"Let's get this show on the road," Annabelle whispered gleefully and Andrea shrugged off her thoughts and watched Belle typing away on the keyboard. Reshuffling Polly's files, messing with the stock market, well not really messing with it just making it look like someone had, ordering various things in her name, various things Polly would NEVER buy, either inappropriate or utterly useless like the thousand beach balls that could glow in the dark. Lot's of little things and it didn't take long for Polly to realise something was going wrong.
"What the hells this?" She cried, her aloof Geek exterior officially cracked in an instant.
"Polly? What's wrong?" Kelly questioned appearing in the doorway and she joined her friend and looked at the screens. "… Well Pol… I didn't realise you were into… that…" She said.
"I'm not! That wasn't me!" The Geek protested instantly and the pair responsible smiled.
"… And why have you bought stock for a company that's going bust?" Kelly questioned and Polly looked to the screens and glared fiercely.
"I DIDN'T! Someone's messing with it… and I'm going to find out who!" She hissed determinedly as she sat down on a desk chair and began tapping away lightning fast. Annabelle looked to Andrea.
"Think we should send her a message?" She suggested and the Emo nodded her agreement and so she types. "Polly… Frankly I am disappointed with your security systems. I expected better. You should be ashamed of yourself and perhaps consider handing your role over to someone more accomplished… like Chelsea. Do hope you enjoy trying to fix this :D."
"Is the smiley face really necessary?" Andrea droned.
"Yes because Polly hates smiley faces," Belle said and she clicked send. It took mere seconds.
"HOW DARE THEY!" Polly snarled and Kelly, still watch the screens, smiled discretely.
"'Someone more accomplished like Chelsea'…" She read and the Geek scowled at her.
"It's NOT funny…" She growled and the Head Girl raised her hands a moment in a placid gesture.
"I know, it's awful…" She soothed, still smiling.
"They MUST know me because I can't trace them!... It's… Grr…" Polly said, clearly increasingly miffed. "When I find them…" Annabelle and Andrea snickered quietly, the noise of the room meaning they could do so without detection.
"I think I might play around with this for a while… She is so much fun," Belle beamed.
"She looks ready to tear her hair out already and it's only been… fifteen minutes," Andrea notes…
"Poor Polly…" Annabelle sighed dramatically and she paused before shrugging slightly, nonchalantly and continuing to torment the unfortunate Geek with Andrea peering over her shoulder.
"Annabelle!" Chelsea called and Andrea took the laptop out Belle's lap swiftly and looked busy, allowing the other girl to keep the Posh Totty's attention away from the screen.
"Yes Chelsea?" Belle smiled and the Totty took a breath.
"I AM SOO SORRY. I didn't mean to kill- I mean ruin your shoes. It was totally uncalled for. I think I blew it all out of proportion, I am REALLY sorry and my contacts have gotten straight onto replacing every pair of shoes. You're a Totty and I know that I shouldn't have acted like I did towards one of our own… Forgive me?" She blurted and Annabelle stood.
"Of course Chelsea," She assured her and she hugged the girl who returned it, relief written across her face. The girl sat on the bed was careful not to look as jealousy flared.
"Thank you Belle… and Andrea?" The Totty began, a slightly fearful look on her face.
"Yes?" The Head Emo urged, looking to her coldly.
"… The Posh Totty boudoir has been… decorated in a way that doesn't really suit us and I was wondering if perhaps the Emo's could… remove the… interesting furnishings?" Chelsea requested shakily and Andrea smiled unnervingly.
"No problem," She said, her tone icy enough that even the Totty could feel it.
"Great… Bye then," The Head Posh Totty returned and she walked away rather briskly and Annabelle looked to Andrea pointedly, an eyebrow raised.
"What?" The Emo asked with her expression so innocent that Belle couldn't argue her wondering as to her blond haired friend's rather fast departure.
"Nothing…" She smirked instead. Andrea was worried.
"Polly, have you-?" Kelly started.
"No! I still don't know who it is! They're ruining everything! EVERYTHING!... I CAN'T find them!" The Geek interrupted fiercely and the Head Girl leant back from the force of the girls words.
"Look… it's okay… I was just going to ask if you had the Trinski order numbers," Kelly explained, keeping her voice calm and Polly took a couple of breathes.
"Yes…" She grumbled through gritted teeth, still fuming.
"Good. That's all I wanted ask…" Kelly soothed.
"… I NEED to know who it is… I NEED to know…" Polly told her and the Jones nodded.
"I know, just don't let them get to you. They're probably loving your reaction. Keep calm and keep at it, you'll find them," She assured her as sincerely as she could and the Geek smiled slightly.
"Yes… quite…" A light tinkling beep comes from the computer and Polly looks to it, leaning over the back of a chair then clicks the message box in the corner, her eyes scanned across the page and her hand clenches tightly around the mouse.
"THEY CAN'T DO THAT! SENDING ME MESSAGES! TAUNTING ME! THAT'S JUST… ARGH!"
Kelly sighed gently and decided to leave the Geek to it. Nothing she said was going to calm her down for any reasonable length of time.
"I think she's had enough," Annabelle concluded as she watched Polly rather violently punch her keyboard in frustration and everyone knows that Polly NEVER hurts her equipment.
"Yes…" Andrea agreed with a small frown, probably for the best. Who knew Polly had such a temper? Five minutes later Annabelle has put everything back to the way it was and sent one last message to the Geek who read, eyes narrowed.
"Nice try Polly. You ALMOST cracked it. I've resolved all the issues now and we can pretend it never happened…" It said and the Geek stared at it silently.
"Pol?" Kelly prompted worriedly.
"Yes Kelly?" Polly asked, smiling a tad.
"Are you alright?" The black bobbed girl frowned.
"Fine. Why wouldn't I be?"
"… Well. Did you find out who'd been messing with our files?"
"Kelly… I don't know what you're talking about," Polly returned smoothly and she closed the email and looked back to the computer screen. She'd pretend it NEVER happened and everyone else would as well… unless they wanted to drop off the face of the Earth with no trace of their existence ANYWHERE…
"Alright Morty!" Taylor called mockingly as she swaggered over and Andrea looked to her.
"Hello Chav," She greeted coolly.
"We is Rude Girls now yeah? An' I ain't seen much a' ya' recently Caspa'! I fink we's got some reacquaintin' ta' do," The Head Chav, then apparent Rude Girl, declared and Andrea put the book in her grasp aside as Taylor cracked her knuckles. The Head Emo stepped out the coffin that is now her bed, and comfier than you'd expect, before she smirked darkly.
"I think that's pronounced reacquainting," She taunted as Janie and Zoe flanked her in a rather spooky manner of appearing of thin air which only Emos could achieve. Bianca stood opposite Zoe, the pair scowling at each other and Jess squared off with Janie. Andrea noted Annabelle watching from across the room, seeming to find the spectacle somewhat entertaining.
"I'll show ya' coffin 'ugging Goths just 'ow we duz' it…" Taylor threatened and the Emo opposite her gave her coldest look.
"You could try… Chav," She hissed and chaos ensued. Some part of Andrea would admit that she'd kind of missed having the chance to beat the crap out of Taylor, it was a great stress reliever and when she'd been spending a lot of time with Annabelle, constantly on edge yet unable to deny the brunette her presence, she needed an outlet of all the pent up emotion… that she wasn't feeling, of course being an Emo. Taylor, her rival and once upon a time friend, was that outlet and she couldn't help feel a little proud when she punched her in the gut and spotted Annabelle smirking as the Rude Girl stumbled back, doubled over with a groan of pain. Annabelle didn't have a tribe but that certainly didn't mean she wasn't allowed to take sides, if secretly and Andrea could be silently smug that Belle was most certainly on hers.
So what do you think? Hope you liked it. In the next chapter is Taylor. Killing the order a little but I'm saving Kelly for last... MUAHAHA!... Ahem sorry. Review for the Cha- I mean RUDE GIRL talk... Innit blad?
