Not many girls – especially ones who were trying to get onto the police force – knew how to crack combination locks. But she had never been a regular girl – too much ambition. It took three tries, but she got his locker open and slipped in her 'surprise'. And waited.
He came down the hall with his best friend, who was saying, "You know that girl is a lot like you-"
"Whaaaaaat! I am nothing like her!"
"But you are. You'll see."
"Ah, shut up!"
"Sure, sure."
She watched as they opened their lockers. After a moment, he jerked back. "Dear Frond…"
One of the 'surprises' fell out of the locker. It was a good sized spider. He had backed up against the wall. "Briar…"
Briar turned around. "Yeah? Oh…"
Most elves don't like spiders. There are exceptions. Turnball Root, for example. But if, like his brother, you are arachnophobic…
She felt a little guilty. Handing Briar a piece of paper, she told him, "Here. Take them outside." Then she bent down and picked up the one on the floor and held it up to the trembling boy's face. "Oh, don't worry, it's not poisonous. I couldn't find any poisonous ones." She dropped it in the nearby trash can and walked away, then looked over her shoulder and called, "Check and mate. My game, Julius!"
A/N: Anyone who can guess who she is wins a free chance to steal Foaly's hat!
