Just as she finished writing, there came a knock at the door. She pushed herself u form the table and went to the locked cabinet where she kept her gun. It wasn't there.
"Who has my gun?" she yelled into the general vicinity, hoping for a response.
The one she got wasn't what she wanted.
"I haven't seen it you geek."
Marly Skinner was Walter Skinner's niece and Elizabeth's nemesis. She was popular, nasty, and found she had the most fun tormenting Elizabeth. For the first year, Elizabeth tried in vain to ignore her. However, there had been times when she had needed to just be alone from the ninety-nien other people in the base. She knew that the one place they all loathed was the Anasazi ruins. Whenever she needed to be alone, she slipped out, and climbed the ladder to the top. What she did there varied from time to time. Sometimes she cried, others she yelled and fumed. The ruins where undoubtedly her domain though. Marly was evil though and always had been. Even her Uncle knew it.
Resisting the urge to allow her full use of four letter words surface, Elizabeth just walked to the door praying it wasn't anything bad. As she opened the door, she was greated with something she never would have expected.
