Purple Vortex Lollies
Okay, well, I'm in class and totally bored, so I thought "I will play on my phone." Unfortunately then I got a text message and the stupid thing went off really loudly, so I decided not to risk it. So, who's up for a story? ( The start of this story is totally true.)
In the middle of a Computers class (ooh, ORIGINAL), two girls sat up the back. Well actually there was four of them, but we're only concentrating on two.
Anyway, the class was rather small because most of the kids had gone on an excursion to an Art Gallery for some exhibition. These two girls were meant to be doing a project on digital cameras and how they work. But that is very boring, so one was playing games and the other was reading FanFiction stories. Then it happened...
One of the chapters didn't load properly. The girl, who's name was Heidi (that's me), sighed impatiently (well actually she cursed a bit but we can't print that) and pummelled the Refresh button.
"What's wrong with you?" her friend, Kristal, asked.
"Bloody computer not loadin'," was the reply. "Oh, it's working now."
Kristal went back to her game, and Heidi concentrated on her screen. It had loaded a large, purple and black swirl. It was actually quite cool. And click-on-able. "What's this thing?" Heidi said.
Kristal glanced over. "Refresh," she suggested.
"Nah let's click it!" Heidi cried. She was usually good with computers; ie, she didn't click on strange swirly things popping up all over the place. But total boredom that could only be caused by Mr. Box talking about how light hits a camera and filters through to make a picture appear upside down inside (or something) had melted her brain, and she clicked on that circle-swirl-thing right in the middle.
The computer buzzed ("sht," said Heidi), and whirred ("Crud," said Heidi) and then sucked them both up inside.
"Wagging!" Heidi yelled triumphantly.
"Crud!" yelled Kristal.
"Mr. Booooooooooooooooooooox," John whined from his seat near Kristal. "Heidi and Kristal just got sucked into their computers! That's not allowed in class!"
"Maybe they're going to have a more in depth study of computers," Mr. Box said, and laughed at his joke, which wasn't funny.
Meanwhile, the two girls were getting bored of zooming around in purple-and- black-ness.
"I'm bored," Kristal sighed.
"I'm motion sick!" Heidi moaned, holding her head. "I can't even go on a tire swing without wanting to chuck!"
"Ew, don't throw up on me," Kristal said.
"I'll spew where I want!" was the reply. "Eurrrrrrrrg, no, I'm gonna faint..."
"You, faint? Pff."
"Shurrup," Heidi moaned, and fainted.
"Oh great!" Kristal said, and attempted to hit her. But the purple-black vortex stretched and made a slurpy noise and they were spat out. "That was very contradicting," Kristal said. "That vortex made a slurping noise and then spat us out."
Somewhere in her subconscious state, Heidi said "stop being such a square!"
Then Kristal stopped being a square, and looked around. And stared. Stared at the rugged, not-smelling-like-roses guy with a beard holding a sword pointed at her heart. And the very sexy blonde guy with the pointy ears and the very fainted Heidi in his arms.
"Legolas, put that one down," Aragorn told him. "What have you got her for anyway?"
"Hey, SHE fell into MY arms," Legolas said. "And she looks sick, maybe I should keep a hold of her."
"No, she just gets motion sick," Kristal said, then sighed to herself. "Only HEIDI could get us sucked into a computer and spat out at the feet of these guys."
"Who are you two?" Aragorn demanded of her.
"I am Kristal, Curious Badger according to the Rocket Mania game," Kristal said. "And that's my friend Heidi."
"And what is she, according to the "Rocket Mania game"?" Aragorn asked.
"I dunno, she doesn't play it. She's an Elf, according to those Lord Of The Rings personality tests she loves so much."
"An Elf?" Legolas said curiously, looking at her. "What's wrong with her ears then?"
"She's not really an Elf, she's a human."
"Thought so," Legolas said. "Elves don't get motion sick."
"And what keeps telling her she's an Elf when she's a human?" Aragorn asked.
"Her computer."
"Com...pewter..."
"Big, blue and white thing, lots of funny wires and mother boards inside, flashing lights, goes funny when you point a mobile phone at it ..." Kristal said. "You know?"
"No, but it sounds most untrustworthy. We must destroy it!" Aragorn said.
"You can't destroy it, that's school property!" Kristal said.
"I don't understand any of this," Legolas said, most helpfully. "But I think this one is waking up."
"Oh god," Kristal sighed. "Don't wake up, not in HIS arms."
Heidi woke up, in HIS arms. She blinked once, then twice. "Oh my god, is this that dream again? Right, where's Kempy? No one's biting Legolas in the balls again."
Legolas' big blue eyes went bigger, and he quickly put her down on the ground. "Who is this Kempy?" he asked. "He sounds most dangerous."
"He's a FREAK," Heidi said, "And he – hang on, this doesn't seem like one of my dreams."
"Heidi, do you remember a big purple and black vortex, and your motion sickness?" Kristal asked.
"Oh wow, oh WOW, motion-sickness-induced fantasies!"
"NO you dumbass, this is REAL!" Kristal yelled.
"Real? This is REAL? THIS is REAL? THAT is REAL?" Heidi pointed to Legolas, then spazzed out her usual way, which was her standing there clutching her cheeks and saying "ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod..."
Legolas took a few steps back, and looked to Aragorn for help.
"Should I kill her?" Aragorn asked.
"You can't kill her, it's not her fault he's here," Kristal said, pointing to Legolas who she was not so fond of. Not when compared to Jack Sparrow...
"Killed by Aragorn, oh wow..." Heidi said.
"It would be a mercy killing," Legolas said. Kristal looked at him. "A mercy on MY part, not hers!" Legolas said.
"She thinks the sun shines out of you, you can't get someone to kill her, you're her god!" Kristal said.
"A god?" Legolas blinked. "How nice."
Heidi calmed down, and looked around. "I had no breakfast toady, is it recess yet? I got the munchies."
"We're in the Middle of Lord of the Rings land – "
"Middle Earth," Heidi said.
"And you're worried about FOOD?" Kristal continued. "We have to get home!"
"Go home? Are you nuts? My Legolas is here!"
"Yours?" Legolas said.
"Mine," Heidi pouted. "And I want food."
"Who's for candy?" came a voice, and along came Gimli.
"Ooh, candy," Heidi said, grabbing some of the lollies. "This is my recess. You having one Kristal?"
"I will, and then we can figure out how to go home," Kristal said.
"Maybe we'll have to go on a long, whirlwind adventure, and then at the end we realise we will never get home and have to stay here, and for compensation we can be any creature we please and I choose to be an Elf and Legolas will love me and then we will marry and I'll be a Princess and we'll – "
Not wanting to know what they would do, Kristal stuffed some of the lollies into Heidi's mouth, then ate some of her own.
"You know, these look very familiar," she said, looking at one of purple- and-black swirly lollies before putting it in her mouth with the others.
"Like that vortex," Heidi agreed. "The one that – oh no. NO, WE'LL GET SENT HOME BY THESE!" She grabbed a hold of Legolas and Aragorn's arms, just as the vortex appeared behind them and she and Kristal were sucked back in... and Legolas and Aragorn were dragged with them...
I finished this right on the bell! Woohoo! Please review these mad ramblings, please!
