Chapter 2- A New Portal is Found
Cornelia
Yawn. Boring. Could this get anymore dull? And Taranee, you'd better not be listening! Cornelia looked around just in time to see Taranee jump, and look back down at her paper.
How did I know, Cornelia thought, going back to her own paper, even though it was blank.
BBBBBRRRRIIIIINNNNGGGGGGGGG!
That was the bell, signaling the end of the class. One quick stop at my locker, and it's off to the mall, Cornelia thought, darting out of class.
"What do you need to go to the mall for?" asked Taranee, coming up behind her, with Irma, Hay Lin, and Will.
"Would you please get out of my head?" said Cornelia in a ticked off voice. The others laughed as Cornelia shut her locker. "I'm going to the mall to go shopping"
"What a shock", Irma whispered.
Cornelia glared at her. "To go shopping for my party", she finished in a huffy voice. Hay Lin was snickering and Taranee was trying not to laugh. "You know I could use some help", said Cornelia thoughtfully. "You wanna come?"
"Go to the mall with you? Let me think about that", said Irma, pretending to think.
"Sure", said Hay Lin.
"You're kidding, right?", asked Will incrudiously.
An hour later, the girls were walking to the mall. Cornelias mom hadn't been able to give them a ride after all, so they were forced to walk. "I hate walking!" Cornelia said suddenly.
"You hate a lot of things", Irma pointed out.
"Whatever", Cornelia muttered.
"Hey Will?" said Hay Lin suddenly.
"Yea?" asked Will, turning around to face Hay Lin.
"Did you know your pocket is glowing?" she pointed at Wills front pocket on her jacket, which was indeed glowing.
"It's not my pocket", said Will, reaching inside of it, "It's the Heart." The girls leaned toward the Heart, which was what had been glowing inside of Wills pocket.
"So what's wrong?" asked Taranee. "I mean, there has to be a reason for it, right?"
"Yea but", Will cut herself off as the Heart started to pull her into another direction, just to the left of them.
"It wants us to go into the forest?" asked Irma.
"Maybe there's a portal?" suggested Taranee.
"Yea, or a beast that's gonna look at us like kibbles 'n' bits", said Irma.
"Nice image Irma, thanks" said Cornelia sarcastically.
"Uuummm…guys? Maybe we can just follow it to find out?" suggested Will. Of course, the Heart had already dragged her about halfway to the forest, and of course, the others followed.
"Does anyone else feel like we just enetered the Blaire Witch Project?" Irma asked as the ywalked further into the forest.
"I saw that movie", said Taranee. "Not on my favorites list"
"You have a list?" asked Hay Lin.
"Would you guys be quiet?" snapped Will.
"Sorry", they said at the same time. They walked deeper into the forest in silence.
"Hey look!" yelled Hay Lin suddenly. They looked around to find…
"Well whatta you know" asid Will. "A portal"
"Great!' said Cornelia. 'Just close it so we can get to the mall"
"What if something came throguh?" asked Taranee. The girls thought about this for a moment, and finally Will said, "Well we can't just leave it open. I say we take the chance and close it." The others nodded in agreement, but as Will went to close, something very strange happened. A heavy breeze came trough the portal, knocking the girls backwards.
"What was that?" yelled Irma, sitting up.
"I don't know", said Will. "But we are not leaving this portal open so we can find out." She closed the portal, but something was now bothering Taranee. What was that? She wondered. And while we're at it, what just happened?
(hehe, here is where I leave you. If you don't like it, than that is just to bad. You see, im into cliffhangers, so ur just gonna hav 2 wait for the next chapter to find out what happens!)
