Author: Sarah's turn now! Hehe…
Disclaimer: Tamora Pierce owns Kel, Neal, Faleron, Joren, Merric, Owen. We don't own anything else apart from the plot.
Author's note: For those who don't know what a polytechnic is, it's something like a Junior College but uh, different and that's where we're supposed to be at. And a handphone is a cellphone to those unsure of term. Oooh and a strawberry twist is yummy! It's kinda like a strawberry smoothie.
Chapter 2
"Raen? You still there? Either my handphone is fuzzing out or you just…hung up on me" I mumbled when I heard the click.
"Great, just great…" I muttered and glared at the phone then to the Tortallian Trio just a few metres away from me.
We were at a small space that was between two lecture theatres, it's usually a hangout place for us design students in the school to wait for our next classes to begin and currently the three guys were starting to be accepted by the males in my subject course. Ugh, and they just had to meet the b-boys and punks.
"Hey Neal! Cleon and oh yeah… Fal… want to go with me to the uh… library?" I asked, a bit weirded out to see Faleron doing a headstand and imitating a breakdancing move by my friend while Neal sipped a strawberry twist and Cleon talking to the punks.
"Hey, we're talkin here!" Li Wei protested.
"I really insist that they should follow me to the library…" and glared a bit at Li Wei and the other brats (punks and b-boys, whatever).
"If it's really that important moon of my night, I would gladly follow you!" smiled Cleon.
"Shouldn't you be saving that line for someone else, someone who's name starts with a 'K' and rhymes with… Oh… I don't know, Geladry?" I asked.
Watching Neal spew a strawberry twist out his nose was not a pretty sight, so was seeing Faleron fall on his back while trying a flip.
"Oh the pain!…The pain!" Neal groaned while holding his nose.
"I don't really know what you're talking about…" Cleon denied and helped Fal up.
Huh, really. Sure, go ahead and pretend that you don't know what I'm talking about. I am so going to get a confession out of you three.
"Whatever, come on… let me show you the library… it's really big about eleven stories tall and I want you to see my one of my favourite books there… First Test, Protector of the Small…I'm quite sure you guys would love to read it" I grinned.
Seeing the look on their faces was fun. Hmm… maybe I could blackmail them into telling me the details of Lady Knight… it would certainly be better than buying the book since I could hear it from themselves.
