ONWARD WITH THE STORY

Nina's POV

The next morning I roll over on my side and look over to see Amber slowly getting up. Lauren, is already up at her new dresser, wearing her uniform and brushing her blonde hair.

"How are you up so early?" I say, pushing off my warm blankets and slowly walking to my closet.

"When I lived in America, I had to wake up at 6:45 each day to get to school on time. Waking up at 7:15 is a piece of cake." she replies, not looking up. "Also, if I get down to the kitchen early I can eat ahead of time and I won't miss Alfie and Jerome's food fight!"

"How do you-" I start.

"Remember, all knowing future girl. Don't tell me you forgot about the T.V. show already?" she looks over at me and raises a eyebrow.

"No, no; of course not!" I assure her.

"Well," Amber steps away from her dresser and looks over at us. "Let's get down to the dining room. Lauren, can't you sit with us just for your first day? Then you never have to sit with us again," she begs.

"Fine, but if I end up with syrup in my hair because of Jerome or Alfie, you guys are going to get it! Future style," she warns us. A look passes over us and we all slowly walk down to the dining room to see that only Sibuna is at the table. Good; we can talk.

"Hey guys," I let them know of our presence as I take the seat next to Fabian and Amber. Lauren looks for a seat and takes the one next to Patricia.

"So," Amber starts breaking the wall of tension." How are we going to get the reflectors?" we all turn on Lauren.

"Well... just wait for a day; Victor comes down and says that he is going for a walk. Then, you strike!" she tells us, and we all nod. After that we eat delicious Vera food and then walk over to the school for the usual long day.

We were all sitting on the couch in the living room when suddenly a look passes over Lauren and she goes white.

"Lauren, Lauren; are you ok?" Amber grabs the girl's shoulders and shakes. The color slowly returns to her face and she turns on us.

"Guys, I need to go get some fresh air. I'll be back in a moment."

Lauren's POV (A/n I usually never change POVs in the middle of the chapter but I need to this time)

I slowly get up off the couch and walk out the door before it turns into a sprint towards the school. How could I have forgotten? Jasper, Jerome and the gem! I need to stop Jasper before he grabs that gem. I burst through the doors of the school and into the room where the shield is displayed. Right as I run through the doors I see Jasper unlocking the glass and pulling the gem out.

"Hey," I call and his head turns towards me. "Put that back." Suddenly the door creaks open and right as Jerome walks out Jasper puts the fake gem in my hand and gives me a push towards the case. He then turns the corner. Jerome looks up at me and I look passes over his face as he sees the fake gem in my hand, and the glass open. He opens up his mouth and yells.

"YOU'RE TRYING TO STEAL THE GEM!

A TWIST! PLEASE REVIEW!
