Violet Par's History
"Vital signs ok, no lasting damages, heart beating nicely and a sore back to boot." Crystal ticked off her fingers as she and the rest of her gang were standing next to Violet's bed. "How good is that?"
"Propitious enough," Violet said seriously. "The abdominal is rather afflictive; not instancing the nadir has been badly wounded but diversely-"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait, what?" Nik stopped Violet in her usual boring monologue. "What the hell are you saying?"
"I was stating," Violet repeated again for her. "That my vital signs are propitious enough, inasmuch as many other hapless and deplorable people, withal or howbeit, the abdominal is rather afflictive; not instancing the nadir has been badly wounded but diversely, the bosom and divergent genitalia are aloft 95 adjective than antecedent-"
"What she means," Vi translated. "Is that her stomach is a bit sore and her foot's in pain but otherwise, she's okay."
"She must be," Megan started. "After all, knowledge is the next step to stop heart problems or something."
"Mlle Gordon said that 'knowledge was the next step to stop world problems and help environments to their fullest beauty'." Violet corrected her.
"Yup, she's okay!" Crystal agreed.
"And speaking of 'Mlle Gordon'," Nik added. "School's starting tomorrow and I thought me might have a vote. If there're a lot of pros, we'll go to school. A lot of cons, we'll skip it!"
"Right," Megan nodded. "Crystal, you go first."
"Skip," She shook her head. "School means we'll be seeing Darcy again."
"Of course we should not skip school," Violet's eyes enlarged to the size of owls'. "If we're caught skipping school, not only will we be suspended but we will have extensive markings on our-"
"Thank you for you thoughts, Violet," Nik said loudly. "Megan, you're next."
Megan stood up. "In the name of 'BSG', I say 'go to school'." She sat down.
"What's 'BSG'?" Crystal goggled at her.
"'Boys Suiting Girls'," Megan replied. "It's a group of boys who secretly choose a girl and place files on them, enabling the boys to talk with the girls without trouble, ease them into asking for a date or-"
"Continuing," Nik said loudly, cutting Megan off. "Vi, you're next."
"I want to skip," She said in a quiet voice. Everybody looked at her.
"Why?" Violet said, surprised. "You don't seem like these monkeys," She pointed to Nik and Crystal.
"Oh, so that's what we are now?" Crystal asked, annoyed. "Monkeys?"
"Last year, you said we were slugs!" Nik retorted. "And last, last year-"
"Shhhhh!" Violet cried, looking around to make sure nobody besides her friends could hear.
"-you said we were Michael and Lily Dicker," Nik said, barely aware of Violet's attempt to hush her. "And I still haven't figured out who was the boy!"
"Who areMichael and Lily?" Vi asked.
"You haven't heard about them?" Megan sat down. "Let me put it in the simplest way: They're loud, obnoxious and stupid!
"But not for Violet," Crystal smirked. "For her, they're stentorian, susceptible and dollish!"
"Doltish," Violet corrected her.
"Are they any different?"
Violet rolled her eyes, amid loud laughter from everybody.
"So why don't you like school work?" She asked with as much dignity she could muster.
"Oh, I like it," Vi said indifferently. "Especially English because I'm excellent at it. But everybody's so cruel to me. All year I've been known as a loser. It's really painful."
Flashback
It was the first day of school and Violet was rather nervous. As usual.
"Violet, time for school!" Helen shouted.
"Do I have to go?" Violet pleaded.
Helen smiled at her girl but shook her head. "No sweetie, school's an extreme part of what will happen to your life. Good types of jobs are considered by your reputation."
"But I want to be a super."
"You can't always be a super, sweetie." Helen touched her cheek. "Look at your dad."
Violet turned to his photo on the dresser.
"Not that dad!" Helen scolded. "Your real dad."
"What about him?"
"You can't find one day without him complaining about his job but he still goes there. I know he's an annoying, grumpy lump-"
"I CAN HEAR YOU!" A voice interrupted them. Bob was standing outside the house with a grumpy expression on his face.
Violet giggled. "Ok mom, I think I know what you're saying." She said quietly. "I'll go to school."
The first day turned out as Violet had expected: HORRIBLE!
When she got out of the car, all the kids playing in the yard turned their attention on her. There were a few moments of hushed silence as she walked up the steps to the school.
Then one kid whispered to his friend. His words were as loud as an apple but they could still hear him.
"Whoa, what a freak! Is she real?"
After that, people started whispering to each other and Violet could catch a couple words.
"Look at her hair! It's blue!"
"Careful, it might be contagious."
"What kind of clothes is she wearing?"
"I dunno but they may have come from the pig's pen."
"She's fat,"
"She's not entirely fat,"
"She's entirely fat to me,"
Violet sighed. Soon enough, they'll forget all about me, hopefully.
They didn't. The first class was Social Studies and when she entered the classroom, all the kids in there stopped chatting and there was silence again.
That didn't worry her the most. What worried her was where to sit. All the tables had at least one person sitting at it.
Oh well, she thought. At least a couple tables only have one person sitting at it. Violet headed for the closest empty seat and pulled the chair out for her to sit.
A tough looking guy barked at her. "Don't sit here, idiot! It's where the jocks sit."
Everybody started whispering again. Violet pretended the words didn't affect her but it did. So much for the words of peace from her mother.
Where to sit? She thought. The whole room would probably reject her before she could even open her mouth to ask.
After a couple of other minutes, more students piled in and now, almost every seat was filled.
The teacher came in.
"Ahem, class, please settle down." He called out in his wispy voice. "My name is Mr. Tufty. As you all may have noticed, we have a new student. This is Violet Parr." Mr. Tufty gestured to Violet.
The class all murmured unpleasantly. Mr. Tufty raised his hands for silence.
"Please take a seat, Miss Parr," He addressed her kindly.
Violet raised a trembling hand. "Please, sir," She said timidly. "There's nowhere-"
"I understand," Mr. Tufty interrupted, not rudely but very politely. "You may sit over there with Miss Alexandra Bell." He pointed to a table with two people sitting at it.
A slim, blond-haired girl (Alexandra) nodded at Violet but the other girl just scowled and her eyes hardened as she looked at Violet.
As Violet passed a group of boys, one of them whispered to the other. "I think she made Mr. Tufty's pet teacher…"
"Only a nerd would do that!" Another boy snickered.
Violet was shocked. Mr. Tufty didn't even question her about anything. He was just being kind since she was new.
Once she sat down on Alexandra's right side, Mr. Tufty started class.
"Alright girls and boys," He said in a surprisingly stern voice. "Another school year to endure and I hope you still remember your history facts because we will be using them again in many subjects."
A couple of kids groaned. History was their least favourite subject.
Violet didn't like History either but on supers' history, she would be an A+ student and then there would be no excuse for those calling her "the teacher's pet" but surely he wasn't going to study that this year, would he?
"Our topic will be on supers' history!" Mr. Tufty announced.
Drats! Violet frowned. This was not good news for her.
Alexandra leaned over to whisper to Violet. "Excellent!" She squealed. "I love supers! It's a shame people banned them. What about you, Tiana?" Alexandra turned to the rough looking girl.
"I'm fine about it," She shrugged those rocky shoulders. "Not a big fuss, though."
"Miss Qhere," Mr. Tufty turned to Tiana. "Please do not talk in class. If you do that again, you will do detention with me."
Tiana just scowled at his back. Alexandra gave a sympathetic look at her and Violet tried to arrange her face to a sad look but for all the good it had done, she might have just as well given a smirk.
Once the three were out of Social Studies, they had math next and Tiana had to pull a round of detention at lunch with the math teacher, Mrs Stewart.
After a class of Science with their teacher, Ms Derkson (who was quite nice), they finally had break.
"Where shall we go today, Violet?" Alexandra asked her.
"Wait just a moment," Violet stuffed her binder into her locker and walked with the two. "Oh, I don't know. You can decide."
"Let's go to the teachers' lounge." Tiana said.
Violet's brow furrowed. "Aren't we not allowed there?"
"I go there all the time," Tiana pulled herself to her full height and she was really tall. How Violet didn't notice it before, she didn't know but Tiana now looked frightening.
"Okay, okay, we'll go there," Violet said quickly.
"It's very lovely, Violet," Alexandra exclaimed to her. "If you can get away in time, it's quite a beauty. And you can nick some treats from the table and everything."
"Uh-huh," Violet nodded but deep down, she was still wary about getting caught there.
"Here we are," Alexandra said and they found themselves in front of a white door with the words "Teacher's Lounge."
"Come on," Tiana grabbed them roughly and shoved them in the room. Then she quickly slipped inside and closed the door.
"Wow!" Violet gasped. The lounge was amazing.
There were plenty of comfortable sofas and a huge table with platters of cookies and chips. The windows were draped with red velvet and there was a spicy aroma going around and made Violet's stomach wild with hunger.
"Yum, I love these chocolate coated chips!" Alexandra grabbed a couple and stuffed them into her mouth. Tiana, on the other hand, flopped on the sofa and flipped on the TV.
"Excellent, they have all my favourite channels." She cried.
Violet, who was itching to grab a cookie, mastered her impulse by reminding her how much trouble she would be in if she stole something, even if it was just a cookie.
"Uh oh," Alexandra said, placing her ear to the door. "I can hear footsteps."
Violet gasped. This could not be happening on her first day at school.
Alexandra hid behind a sofa and Tiana hid in the cupboards. Violet couldn't find any other hiding places without seeing as though the others though she was copying their idea.
Quickly, she flattened herself on the wall and when the door opened, slipped through gracefully without being caught.
"Who left the TV on?" Mr Tufty cried indignantly. Then the door swung shut.
With only one minute before break ended, Violet wandered around the English room with all her books until finally, Alexandra and Tiana came with their books in their hands, looking disgruntle.
"I've got detention!" Alexandra wailed. "It's just the first day and I've got detention!"
"Well, you shouldn't have gone into the teacher's lounge." Violet told her.
Alexandra gave her a hard look. "Life's nothing without a taste of risks."
"So true," Tiana glared at Violet.
Violet sighed. The three sat at the back and took out their books. Their teacher, Mrs Dingle, walked in and stood at the front.
"Good morning class," She said in a dignified voice.
The good thing about her is that she let's classes play if it's approaching the Christmas season or something else. The bad thing was that she uses very complex words that "Grade 6 students should already know".
The other bad thing was that she cared very much if you got lower that 85. Better be a good little girl/boy in her classes.
"Now, everybody," She started. "English is a very consequential subject and presently, our focus is going to be on supers."
Damn it! Violet thought. It seems as though supers were very popular in Grade 6.
"It will also be our focus for Grade 7." Mrs Dingle finished.
It must be popular in Grade 7 too, Violet thought.
Alexandra was drawing a fat poodle on her notebook and Tiana was sticking her wad of gum she was chewing lately underneath the desk.
End flashback
"So what happened between you and Alexandra and Tiana?" Megan asked.
"We've split," Vi said gloomily. "Now I have no friends."
"That's too bad, especially since you can't transfer schools." Violet gave her a sympathetic look as she took out her laptop.
"Yeah," Vi shrugged.
"Why'd you bring that here?" Crystal asked Violet.
Violet turned to her with a surprised look. "Well, to finish my homework."
Nik, who was draining the last of her water bottle, gagged and spit it out. "Violet! We're on summer vacation!"
"No, it's summer holidays." Violet opened a file and clicked on a couple of documents. "I've asked three or four teachers for some extra homework and they gave me loads." She said happily.
"Man, you really are a nerd." Megan cried.
"This is new?" Crystal laughed.
Violet looked up. "Oh, by the way, I'll be on msn tonight if you want to chat."
The four got up, ready to leave. "Sure, whatever," Nik shrugged. "7:00 sharp,"
"You bet!"
Couple hours later…
Crystal and Nik both logged on. They were at Crystal's house and she had three computers. One's for her, one's for Nik and the other one's for the rest of Crystal's family to fight over.
On msn, Crystal scanned her list. All five of her friends were logged on. She clicked on Violet's msn name first (violet…MUST DO H/W).
Crystal's new tooth: yo
Violet…MUST DO H/W: hi, sup?
Crystal's new tooth: n2m, u?
Violet…MUST DO H/W: sigh I spilt my medicine:(
Crystal's new tooth: lolz
Violet clicked on Megan's msn name (little miss lunatic).
Violet…MUST DO H/W: megan, u there?
Little miss lunatic: yeah

Little miss lunatic: fine, im watching potter puppet pals

Violet…MUST DO H/W: sigh
Little miss lunatic: hey, crystal just told me that u spilt ur medicine. That true?
Violet…MUST DO H/W: WAT? SHE TOLD U! THAT WAS SUPPOSED 2 B PRIVATE!
Fuming, Violet clicked back on Crystal's msn box.
Violet…MUST DO H/W: DID U TELL EVRYBODY BOUT MY SPILT MEDICINE?
Crystal's new tooth: heh…heh…heh…
Violet…MUST DO H/W: OMG, UR SO DEAD!
Crystal's new tooth: funny, im still breathing!
Suddenly, an msn box popped up on Violet's laptop. It was Nik's.
Sk8: hey, crystal just said u spilt ur medicine
Violet…MUST DO H/W: tell her I will kill her
Sk8: ok, brb
Nik clicked on Crystal's name.
Sk8: violet told me 2 tell u shes gonna kill u
Crystal read this and frowned. She swivelled around on her chair to face Nik.
"You could have just said it right here, we're in the same room." Crystal said.
Nik shrugged and grinned. "It's fun to use msn."
Crystal rolled her eyes and returned to her chat box. Suddenly, one came from Vi.
TheyXcallXmeXlaundryXwoman: Crystal?

Crystal's new tooth: ok :)
Vi clicked on the microphone picture and the speakers started working.
"Hello?"
"Hey!"
"Hi!"
"Hello!"
"Yooooooooooooo!"
"Let me guess, that was Nik, right?" Vi smiled.
"Noooooooooooooo!"
"Oh come on, that was SO you!"
"Nooooooooooooooooo!"
"Ugly butt," Vi muttered.
"I can hear yoooooooooooooooooou!"
"So can weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" Crystal chipped in.
"Me tooooooooooooooooooo!" Megan added.
"Why's everybody making their vowels long?" Violet asked.
"Cause they haven't learned their vowels properly." Vi sighed.
"Hey!" Nik's voice rang out.
"I think I've heard that joke before-" Megan started but Vi interrupted her.
"Hey, what are you doing here?"
Crystal's eyebrows rose. She glanced across the room at Nik who only shrugged.
"Get out idiot, get out!" Vi demanded to something.
There was scraping sound and then Dash's voice cried.
"You guys are poo!"
"DASH!" Vi screeched, chasing him out of the room. "Get back here you lazy worthless rabbit poo!"
"Try and catch me!" Dash's voice faded away as he ran off.
Swearing angrily, Vi returned to the computer.
"Vi, I can hear you swearing," Violet said.
"That bed wetter ticked me off," Vi burst out.
"Wonderful," Crystal said.
"What?" Vi asked.
"Well, what else am I supposed to say?" Crystal asked. "You're dog shit?"
There was a disapproving clicking noise who Crystal guessed was Violet.
"Let's go back to conversation so Dash can't run in here again and start saying we're now bird shit!" Nik suggested.
"Nik," Violet called out to her.
"I'm sorry, Violet," Nik smirked, her cursor hovering over the "speakers off" button. "I can't hear you, speak louder."
"I said that-"
Violet's voice cut off when Nik pressed the "off" button.
Violet…MUST DO H/W: THAT WASNT FUNNY, NIK!
Sk8: it is 2 me
Violet…MUST DO H/W: ur a bum
Crystal's new tooth: oooooo…violet finally sweared!
TheyXcallXmeXlaundryXwoman: this is cozy, dont u think so, mg?
Little miss lunatic: mark me double X
TheyXcallXmeXlaundryXwoman?
Little miss lunatic: sigh so true 2X
TheyXcallXmeXlaundryXwoman: o…
Sk8: 9
Crystal's new tooth: 9
At the sign of 9, Vi got confused but Megan and Violet rose the occasion immediately.
Little miss lunatic: so, did u do ur h/w last nite?
Crystal's new tooth: yup though I still dont get the sublimation part
Sk8: easy, when liquid turns to gas, its called sublimation though when gas turns to liquid, its also called sublimation
Vi's head was swimming. Crystal and Nik were talking about homework?
TheyXcallXmeXlaundryXwoman: wats that 9?
Uh oh, Violet thought. Vi can not mess this up.
Violet…MUST DO H/W: u mean that 9x4/2x33?
Vi almost replied no when Megan interrupted.
Little miss lunatic: the answers 0.5
Violet…MUST DO H/W: no its 0.545454545454545454545454545454…
Megan almost retorted when she remembered the 9.
Little miss lunatic: whoops, looks like I made a mistake
Crystal's new tooth: 99
Sk8: 99
Vi thought it was now safe to talk.
TheyXcallXmeXlaundryXwoman: so wat was that 9 and 99 about?
Crystal's new tooth: if somebodys reading ur typing, u type 9. when they leave, u type 99.

Crystal's new tooth: let's listen to them yell
Crystal switched on the speakers and instantly, everybody in the conversation could hear the two yelling at each other.
"…you're such a baby, Dash," Vi yelled.
"Whatever you say, bitch!" Dash cried.
"STOP CALLING ME THAT!" Vi started chasing him all over the house.
There was silence at the four's part. The only thing they could hear was the thumping and scraping sound that Vi and Dash were making.
"I don't think Vi will be back for a long time," Crystal smiled.
Violet…MUST DO H/W: shall we call it a day?
Little miss lunatic: probably, its 9:23 already!
Crystal's new tooth: honestly, mg, we new that long time ago
Sk8: we did?
Crystal threw a pencil at Nik. She dodged it with ease, laughing.
Violet…MUST DO H/W: u 2 sleeping over or something?
Crystal's new tooth: how'd u find out?
Violet…MUST DO H/W: u left the speakers on!
Crystal checked the speakers. Sure enough, she forgot to shut them.
"Whoops," She clicked the "off" button. Now the speakers were off.
Little miss lunatic: I'll be gone now guys
TheyXcallXmeXlaundryXwoman: don't leave now, I LOVE U!
Little miss lunatic: uh…vi?

Little miss lunatic: lolz
Little miss lunatic has left the conversation.
Crystal's new tooth: so Nik, hows life treating u?
Nik swirled around in her chair.
"Fine, let's start the night with prank calls!"
Note: thank u everybody, that's the end of this story! But of course, the 2nd story's coming up. Now, I'm going to become a stubborn mule and I want 123 reviews in total before I go on. So good luck on satisfying me!
PS: yes, the super you guys sent me will be in the 2nd story and also, they'll be entering a tournament. YES, THAT'S RIGHT, A TOURNAMENT!
PPS: did you know that "potter puppet pals" is real? Check it out on Google (it's so funny) but I warn you, there's some stuff that's rated PG10. Also, when you want to watch it, see "Bothering Snape" first to understand "Trouble at Hogwarts".
