as nobody reads it ^_~.
Chapter 2 - Christian Aka Why God? Why?!
Damn that old man! He ruined my perfect opportunity! Oh, by they way, I'm Christian. I guess I should tell you a little about myself before we continue. I'm 17 years old and reside in a fairly large town of 400,000 where I attend Clovis West High school. I guess you could say I'm popular. I know a lot of people, or at least they know me. You see, I like to sing in the coir with my friend Daniel, whom I've known since my freshman year. He was in my freshman English class, where he called me 'Mark.' So if he calls me that, you know why.
I met Dani and Bri about six weeks ago. All four of us attend Clovis West, but we also attend an advanced school in the afternoons, but don't go thinking we're nerds or anything, 'cause we're not! Me, Dani, and Bri are all in the same class in the advanced school, but Daniel is in another across the school's building.
I also guess you're all wondering what went on back there in the field. You see, I've developed a sort of crush on Dani in the time that I've known her. There's just something about her, I don't know what it is.Anyways, today I planned to ask her out, and everything was going perfectly until that dick of a man yelled to us. It was nice to help, don't get me wrong. And who knows, where we're going tonight, we may get a reward of some sort. Now back to the story.
We began to walk back home after the professor launched his balloon. I thought to myself 'why the hell did he want OUR help? Is it a teenager thing he has or something?' But whatever.
When we got back to my house, I turned on the television to the local news. It showed us out the NERV representative, but the report wasn't about us. The reporter was 'flaming' the rep. For being ill-prepared and representing such a large company, the press was all over it.
"Now that's not fair!" Dani told everyone. "Mistakes happen, for Christ's sake! And why didn't they talk about us?!"
"Looking for some spotlight, are we?" Daniel said Mockingly.
"No.I just think credit should be given where credit is due." Dani shouted defensively.
"Let's not bicker over this now." Bri said. "We need to figure out where this place is if we're to go there tonight."
I agreed. So I went onto the internet, and a message popped up in my email from Professor Kenshi. He gave me lucid direction to the place. He then IM'ed me.I thought to myself, 'what the hell? How does this guy know all this crap?' I asked him suiting, and he responded "I know everything about you.and your friends too! If you want to know more, be there at 8 o' clock tonight!" he quickly logged off afterwards.
"YOU GUYS!" I shouted. "This is starting to freak me out! The professor just IM'ed me from his balloon, and he knows everything! My email, my screen name, and he says he knows all of yours, too! All of yours!"
"Freaky." Danielle said with a slight sense of fear.
After a long pause, I finally got out, "I don't think we should go tonight."
"Then how will we find out how he knows all of this?" Daniel and Bri said simultaneously.
"I guess you're bother right." I said. Dani then put her arm through mine and said, "Don't be scared, Christian. It'll be fun!"
"I'm not scared!" I said back. I don't like it when people say I'm scared of anything, though sometimes I can be surprised.
"Uh-huh.right." Dani said. "Well, I have to be off. Let's all meet back here at 7:30 tonight and go from there."
"But it's already noon." Daniel said to Dani. "Why don't we just chill here and wait 'till then?"
"Sounds like a good idea." Bri said.
"Cool, I guess." I said back. "I'll have my mother order lunch."
"I want pizza," Dani said, "Pepperoni with extra cheese!"
"Alright then, pizza it is." I said. And so lunch commenced.
