-1Chapter 2: lollies
A/N: Please R&R
The girls were all standing in a line staring at the animals. It was very quiet as no one knew what to say to these girls.
" I like pie," Melman said randomly.
" Pie makes you overweight and fat," Jacqueline said strictly.
" What do you have to eat on this land?" Carla asked.
" Well we have coconuts and I make the best hot chocolate. We make lots of sweet stuff as well which you'll all like," Gloria said.
" Mrs. Richards won't let us eat stuff with sugar and anyway it makes you fat and destroys your body. We've never eaten something with sugar in it in our lives," Michelle added.
" First of all a little bit of sugar ain't gonna hurt anyone. It makes you happy. Second of all, Mrs. Richards isn't here," Marty said.
" Mrs. Richards isn't here!" Michelle screamed.
" No she's on the boat calling people for help".
" Where are the sweets!" Luella said greedily, eyes sparkling as she spoke.
" Right over here girls," Gloria said responsibly. The girls ran up to the sweets and started eating as many as they could.
" I thought you said sweets made you fat and you didn't want to eat them," Marty said. The girls stopped for a second, then suddenly Luella spoke up.
" We all go to a boarding school, were Mrs. Richards teaches. Ever since her husband died a few years ago, she has made our life miserable. No lollies, chocolate, music or fun.".
" Why don't you tell your parents?" Melman asked.
" We tried telling them," Courtney started.
" But they wouldn't listen," Lindsey added.
" Because whenever Mrs. Richards saw our parents," Carla joined.
" She would pretend we were having fun," Luella finished.
" You poor girls," Gloria said putting her arms around two of the girls, " Hey Marty, turn up the music and get as many lollies as you can, we want to make sure these girls have a good time. So Marty turned up the music, Melman gave them sweets, and the girls had the biggest smiles on there faces. Unfortunately, Mrs. Richards appeared shortly after.
" What is the meaning of this!" Mrs. Richards screamed, her eyes glaring at her students. The students immediately formed a straight line. Mrs. Richards went down the line, inspecting each and every girl. She spotted some food on Anna's face.
" Anna! What have you been eating? I demand you tell me".
" Oh Mrs. Richards I ate…I ate,"
" What Anna means to tell you but she doesn't know how to is she ate some vegetables shaped in a lolly," Alex said.
" A vegetable shaped in a lolly, oh how original," Mrs. Richard's said smoothly.
" So, would you care to show me this vegetable?" The island was silent.
" Well, are you going to show me this vegetable," she said, her voice was beginning to sound harsh, " Margaret! You come up here and tell me what you ate".
Margaret moved slowly towards her, praying that the earth would swallow her up. When she approached her, she stood still, staring at Mrs. Richards.
" I demand you tell me!" Mrs. Richards yelled, her eyes literarily popping out of her face. She grabbed Margaret's long hair and pulled it extremely hard.
" I gave them a lolly," Gloria said, shaking while she said it.
" Oh, so they did eat lollies," Mrs. Richards said, releasing Sarah's hair.
" Tomorrow you will all be punished - SEVERELY!" she yelled.
