Chapter 13 - What wicked webs we weave...
Miranda, Lizzie, Ethan, Kate, and Gordo had survived one day without being found out. Now they were all sitting around a table at the Digital Bean. They were caught up in a conversation when Claire, and Heather approached the group.
"We know it was you," announced Claire. "I suggest you say your prayers."
"Oh please." said Kate. "Like your little brain could think of anything. You have nothing on us, and you know it. Now I suggest you and Miss Ditz leave us alone or you'll be banned from this place forever." Kate took a sip of her milkshake and raised her eyebrow at her former friends.
"Like you have any power Kate. Your now a part of the loser club, and that means you have lost your status." Heather said bluntly.
"The only losers in this place are you two." stated Kate. "And without me your both nothing and will continue to be nothing. I have my new friends and what do you both have? Horrible pictures posted at school and pictures in the hands of every person attending Hillridge [AN: I have no idea what the school is called, so I'm guessing.] Face it, your through. Your nothing. No one will give a rat's ass about you anymore. So, move along now. Your blocking our view and stinking up the joint.... Oh, and one last thing: As of tomorrow my daddy is going to be owner of this place, so I can, and will, have you banned if you do anything or say anything about us." Kate smiled sweetly and watched as Claire and Heather stomped off with a huff.
"Is you dad really going to be owning the Digital Bean?" asked Lizzie. Everyone had a look of joy on their faces. They loved the Digital Bean, and knew that if one of them had that much power over the place, they would live a life of bliss.
"Yup, after years of begging, he is finally giving in and buying it!" Kate smiled. "Mr. Miller couldn't continue running it and he doesn't trust anyone to own it except dad, since they've been friends for like 10 years. So my dad bought it from him and Mr. Miller is moving to Cancun in about a week. We'll have free shakes and whatever we want from now on! This can be like our meeting spot and everything!" Everyone smiled. Soon they got up and went home. This week was going to be stressful as the principal was investigating the paper incident.
Next Day:
Tuesday came on very fast. The group met up at Lizzie's locker and hung out until the first period bell rang. In the middle of first period the principal called an assembly. The group sat together in the back row of the auditorium. With worried looks on their faces, they quietly waited for the principal to start his speech.
"Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention?" asked Principal Kelley [AN: Don't know his name...] Everyone went silent. "Now, as you all know someone had posted obscene and ridiculous papers on the walls of the school yesterday." Everyone laughed, remembering the papers. Claire and her posse glared at the people around them, and Larry Tudgemen's face went beet red while doing so. He looked at Lizzie and gave her a guilty look. Lizzie ignored him. "Ladies and gentlemen, this is no laughing matter. Now, I have been approached by 2 people and they have suggested that this matter be ignored. I will do so, since these people have been a couple of the victims. I will, however, let it be known that any future disturbances will not be ignored, and will be severely punished!" He looked at the students. "Now, moving on..."
After the assembly Lizzie and her friends met up at Ethan's locker.
"Wow... that was close." Gordo said. "I wonder who approached him though." Everyone looked at each other.
"That would be us." said a voice from behind them. They all turned and gasped.
"You two??" gasped Miranda.
"But why?" asked Kate.
