Learning the Truth

Chapter 2

As Tommy finally made his way up to the girl he tapped her on the shoulder to get her attention. As the girl turned around Tommy noticed that she had the most amazing and beautiful eyes he had ever seen. They were a light green colour and when the light shone across her face them seemed to change to a deep blue colour.

"Yes? Hello? Is anybody in there?" The girl said as she waved her hand in front of his face.

"Oh sorry." Tommy said as he realized that he was staring. "My name is Tommy Dawkins, and I must say you have the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen." Tommy said in an aw.

"Oh thanks. My names Alexa." She said

"Would you care to dance Alexa?" Tommy asked holding out his hand.

"Sure why not" Alexa answered as she took his hand and he lead her out to the middle of the dance floor.

"So are you new around here?" Tommy asked as they moved to the beat.

"Yah my family and I just moved here from… well a place you probably haven't heard of." Alexa answered as a slow song came on.

"Oh cool so were are you going to school?" Tommy asked as he slid her closer and they started to dance.

"Umm, Pleasantville high." Alexa answered as she rested her head on his shoulder.

"Oh really! That's were I go. Maybe I can show you around." Tommy said excitedly.

"That would be great! I don't really know were my classes are anyways so maybe you can show me." Alexa answered.

"Sure. It would be my honour." Tommy said with a slight smile.

"Great! Thanks." Alexa said as the song ended. "Well I better get going home. My parents are probably starting to worry. Well I'll see you Monday. Bye Tommy!" Alexa said as she turned and left through The Factory doors.

"Bye Alexa!" Tommy shouted after her. Tommy then after a few seconds of awing turned and headed back to the table Merton was sitting at.

"Hey buddy!" Tommy said as he sat across from his friend once again.

"Hey Tommy. How did it go?" Merton asked sipping from his third slushy.

"It went great. It turns out that she's going to our school so I'm going to show her around on Monday." Tommy said

"Really cool. So what's her name?" Merton said as he sat back in his chair.

"Her names Alexa. She has the most beautiful eyes and so gorgeous! I think I'm going to ask her out on Monday." Tommy said as he started day dreaming about what a date with her would be like.

" Cool. Well it looks like I'm not going to find anyone here so I think I'm going to head back to the lair and see if I can find anyone interesting on the internet." Merton said as he rose from his seat.

"Come on Merton, you don't need to resort to the internet for all you problems. You'll find someone." Tommy said as he too rose from his seat.

" Yah I know but for now it can't hurt. You never now. I might meet the next creature we have to battle." Merton joked as Tommy slung his arm around his shoulder.

"Yah well if you find anything let me know." Tommy joked back.

"Yah will do. BY the way have you heard from Lori lately?" Merton asked.

"Nope. But I think she's just busy preparing for her kickboxing mach." Tommy stated.

"Yah your probably right. Anyways need a ride home?" Merton asked as he dangled his keys in front of him.

"Oh yah. Thanks." Tommy said as he hopped into the passenger side of Merton's hearse.

"No problem." Merton said as he started up the engine. As they drove off Alexa came out from behind the garbage bin. As she reached into her purse she pulled out a cell phone and dialled a number.

"Hello?" Said a deep voice.

"Hey it's me. I think I got us a body." Alexa said with a dark smirk on her face.

"Excellent. I'll tell the others." Said the deep voice on the other side. " We shall prepare for the harvest."

"Good. I'll have him before the week is out." Alexa said and she shut the phone and walked off into the woods.
