BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
"Stupid thing!" Leilani mumbled as she reached over to her bedside table and hit the alarm button on her sister's watch. "I don't want to wake up…" she whined softly to herself. Oh well. Better the beeping than the annoying alarm her alarm clock had. Thankfully for Leilani, the alarm clock had gone to alarm clock heaven ever since it ran out of batteries.
She lay in bed a little while longer, forcing herself to stay awake. Leilani then got up, being careful not to hit her head on the bunk bed directly above her and put on her glasses. She complained to herself, "If only Jenny weren't such a friggin' scaredy-cat then I'd be sleeping up there and I wouldn't have to worry about bumping my head."
She walked out of her room, stumbling a little, half-asleep still. Her ears caught the familiar sound of her grandfather in the backyard watering the garden and she gave a small smile. Her grandfather had yet to forget a day of watering. She got her business done, and as she was washing her hands, she turned on the blinding lights above the mirror to try and wake herself up.
She cursed the lights as she squinted at herself in the mirror. Her own slightly slanted dark-brown eyes squinted back at her from behind dark purple frames. Her shoulder-length, slightly layered, black hair was a disarray on the top of her head. She took her brush and began brushing out her hair, giving a slight yelp of pain followed by a curse every time she hit a snag. Afterwards, she brushed her teeth and washed her face. The warm water was so soothing… Leilani slapped herself lightly to knock herself out of her trance. Quickly applying lotion, she rushes out of the bathroom back into the room she shared with her sister.
"Wake up, you idiot!" Leilani called to her still-slumbering sister. Jenny just pinched her eyes shut tighter and mumbled drowsily, "5 more minutes…" Leilani rolled her eyes and quickly chose her clothing. While attaching her neck-chain to her jeans, she quickly hit the power button on her computer. After she had finished dressing, her computer had started up and so she opened up her RealPlayer (A/N: REALPLAYER ROCKS!!! XD) and began playing music softly as to not disturb her still-slumbering household. Singing softly to her music, she twirled around a little, quickly stuffing her books into her backpack. She ate her breakfast quickly, turned off her music and then ran out the door to school.
======================================================================
Getting to school that day had been harder on her than usual. While walking to school, Leilani suddenly remembered that she had left her binder sitting on her desk. She groaned loudly, turned around and started running back home, cursing herself the whole time.
By the time that she got it, and had gotten back to school, she had almost been late. Luckily for her, she had P.E. first period and with Mr. LaPonte as her teacher, she could likely even get away with murder in his class. The rest of the day passed by quickly enough. Second period was Office Skills, working in the office was fun, but un-Earthly quiet. Easy "A". Then came Humanities. Two periods of sitting and listening to Ms. Schulte talk and talk. This was a tough class and Leilani was almost always relieved to get out and go to lunch.
Lunch was the same. Her friends were chatting with each other, stealing food from each other, insulting one another, the usual. Leilani poked at her noodles. She wasn't really hungry and so packed her lunch stuff away. After lunch was her Drama Wheel class. Leilani loved this class, where she was able to act like the nutcase that she was. It also helped that her teacher was Mrs. Vernon-Shimko (although most students just called her Ms. Vernon). Ms. Vernon always got everyone into the act.
Drama class flew by quickly. Then came her final two classes, algebra 1 and science. Leilani bitterly said her teacher's name. "Mrs. Anglin's class…" Although she disliked the teacher, it was always amusing in class as the group she sat with was always doing something funny or other.
That class flew by unusually fast that day. Leilani then walked home, enjoying the wind, but wishing that it would stop blowing her hair into her face. "Darn it!" she said angrily, brushing her hair from her face for the millionth time. "I should've put my hair up today… not that it would stay up."
When she got home, she threw her stuff on her bed and then sat at her computer. "Oops… I forgot to turn you off from this morning… Hope Mommy didn't catch you --" before Leilani could finish she heard her mother's voice calling her name. And it didn't sound happy.
"Leilani, how many times have I told you not to leave the computer on when you go to school?" her mother yelled. Her mother never spoke, always yelled. Leilani winced inwardly, but stood defiant on the outside.
"No one told you to look in my room."
"Are you back-talking me?"
"Maybe."
"You and your mouth is going to get you in some big trouble, young lady."
"So?"
"Go clean your room. NOW!"
"Whatever." Leilani said casually and walked into her room and sat at her computer. Nothing she wasn't used to. She had a headache now. She laid her head on top of her desk and closed her eyes. Just a little rest… she thought as she drifted off into the land of slumber. The last thing she remembered before she fell asleep was the picture of all the main Ranma characters as her desktop background.
In stormed her mother, checking to see if Leilani was cleaning and spotted no one at all in the room. The only thing making noises was Leilani's computer, which hummed quietly.
"Where did that child go off to now." her mother grumbled and off she went to look for her stubborn and rude daughter.
======================================================================
Leilani woke up drowsily. "Huh…?" she mumbled intelligently. Warm sunlight poured on her as she suddenly sat up on what seemed to be a hospital bed. Nothing was familiar. What happened to my computer? And my room? Where the heck am I?! Frantic thoughts raced through her mind as she looked around wildly. Things were vaguely familiar.
A nice-sounding male voice came from the doorway. "So you're finally awake?" Leilani whirled around, and when she saw who she was facing she blacked out from the shock.
======================================================================
A/N: Heyloz there! ^_^ This is litoblueanjel (LBA, whatever) here. Leilani is supposed to represent me on any regular day. Yes, in real life, I am a rude, stubborn and disrespectful daughter. But oh well, my family is almost completely used to it. How do you like the story so far? See the little button on the bottom left there? Yes, the tiny little square that says "Go!". Push it, and send us some reviews so we know how to make it better!!
Who was it that made Leilani black out like that? Will her mother ever find her so that she can finish -- er… start -- cleaning her room?
