Here u ppl go, chapter 4 ^__^ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Riley snapped her eyes open, and looked at her alarm clock, it was blank; she sprung up and looked at the clock on her wall.

"Holy Shit!" She screamed! "I should almost be at school by now!" She threw on some baggy sweat pants from her high school and a sweatshirt over her pj tank top. She washed her face and grabbed a hairbrush.

She ran down stairs and looked for Atlas, her friend had already left, she cursed and quickly drank a glass of water, grabbing a piece of cold toast, snatching up her car keys.

She got into her 'baby', noticing that Atlas's beloved bike had gone and pulled out of the drive, crunching away on the toast while she went. She sped through several red lights, and ignored all the horns that sounded at her. She scowled; she had forgotten to reset her alarm after the power cut.

Kai, Johnny and Tala stood leaning on the wall outside school, the bell was about to ring, but they were taking their sweet time, Kai looked up as he heard the rumbling of a powerful engine.

"Whoa! Listen to that kitten purr!" Said Johnny. A black motorbike pulled into the school; the rider had a black helmet on, as well as a black trench coat, which was whipping out behind them.

"Lucky bastard." Said Tala, " I'd love a ride like that."

The bike halted suddenly, skidding on the ground and coming to a perfect stop in a narrow parking space. The boys watched as the owner removed their helmet; a cascade of silky white hair was revealed, pulled into a ponytail with wisps hanging around the tanned skin of the face.

"Hn, its only Atlas." Said Kai quietly. She was wearing white trousers and a matching top, covered by her ankle length trench coat.

As she walked past the boys Johnny caught hold of her wrist, and she turned to face them.

"You cant just walk by without saying hi," He said, "Where's Riley?" He then asked noticing that his project partner wasn't there.

Atlas shrugged.

"I don't know, I guess she slept in." She turned to Kai. " Hey, get packed, we leave tonight, okay? I'll pick you up at seven, our flight is at 11:30pm." She said.

"You've booked it already Map?!" He said.

"Yeah, and if that's a problem Scarf Boy, then tough shit!" She said, spinning around and strolling into school, just as the bell rung.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*}~

Atlas sat with her feet on the desk, Kai sat behind her with Johnny, and Riley's empty chair was beside her.

"Riley Clyde?" Called the professor. She looked up.

"Riley Clyde?" she called again

"Here!" Gasped a voice from the door. Riley stood; she had just pegged it up three flights of stairs to reach the room. She strode over to Atlas and flopped down in the seat beside her.

"Gee, thanks for waking me up this morning PAL!" she said with venom as she brushed her hair with the brush she had taken.

"Since when did I become your alarm clock?" Asked Atlas, her voice low and casual.

"Atlas! The last you could have done is stick your head around the door when you saw I wasn't up!" Yelled Riley. The class looked at her.

Atlas stood up, her chair toppling backwards, her anger rising very quickly, as it always did, as was her voice.

"Hey, its not MY fault that your lazy, I told you last night I was going in by my self today!" Atlas shouted

"I'm NOT lazy!" Yelled Riley, standing up too, " My alarm was out because of the power shortage!"

"Yeah well I always wake up by myself at 6am, I'm not your fucking mother!"

The two girls prepared to lunge at each other, but Atlas found herself unable to. Kai had grabbed her shoulders and was holding her back, and the same had happened to Riley with Johnny holding her.

"Right, you two! Out! NOW!" Yelled the teacher, pointing to the door. The two silently stormed out, neither looking at the other.

Kai and Johnny looked at each other this could turn out bad.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Johnny sat watching TV; Kai was upstairs packing when he heard a knock onto door to their house, or rather, mansion.

He got up, and when he opened the door, he saw Riley, clutching a box of possessions with bleary eyes.

"Atlas threw me out, could I kip with you for a few days?" she asked.

"She threw you out?!" Asked Johnny, amazed, these two were supposed to be best friends, how could thy have fallen out so badly over something as trivial as an alarm clock?!

Riley nodded, and Johnny led her in.

"We had another argument when we got back from school, and she told me to get out." Sighed Riley, flopping onto the couch and dropping the box on the floor.

"What did you fight about?" He asked curiously.

"Well, it started off with the alarm clock again, and one thing led to another and I said something pretty awful, if I had kept my mouth shut then maybe I wouldn't be here, but I said it." Riley sighed

"What?" He asked.

"I told her that her grandmother probably popped it just so she wouldn't have to live on the same planet as someone like her. It seems like a pretty babyish thing to say...but it really hit her, she just kind of stared at me, before she pointed at the door and told me to get out." She said, remembering the look of hurt on her friends face and the deathly low voice she had spoken in.

"Didn't you apologise?" He asked.

"Me? Apologize?" Riley growled stubbornly.

Johnny opened his mouth to say more, but Kai came downstairs, dragging his bag with him, so the two fell silent, and there was as second knock on the door. Kai opened it and saw Atlas standing there, tapping her foot impatiently.

"Cummon, we're running late." She snapped.

Kai sneered.

"Keep your hair on Map, I'm coming, your friend Riley is here, Aren't you going to say Hi to her?" he asked, unaware of the second fight between the two.

"No!" She said, before walking down to the Porsche Boxta that sat on the driveway. Kai sighed and followed her, a month in a cold dreary country with this crazy pleb.(HEH, I LUV THAT WORD) At least she had a cool car.

Riley and Johnny listened as the powerful engine revved and pulled away. She sighed.

"Cummon, we should start packing, our flight is tomorrow." Said Johnny, "I'll drive you round to Atlas' so you can get the rest of your stuff." He said.

Atlas drove in silence, she couldn't believe her and her best friend had fallen out over something so stupid, but it wasn't her fault Riley had over slept, and she wasn't apologizing first, a month away from her would do her good, and give them both time to cool off.
