Linzy
I blinked, rubbing my burning eyes.
We'd stayed up way too late last night trying to rid ourselves of the Gamorradons, and now I was paying for it.
Kass sat on the bleachers next to me, her head drooping then snapping back up a second later when blitz yelled at her to wake up.
I sighed. We'd been here for what, a week? Two?
I don't even know anymore, and the worst part is, I'm getting used to this world.
Well, as used to it as I can be.
It's still hard for me to believe that Duncan hasn't figured out what we know, and really I'm surprised Alice hasn't brought it up again.
Maybe Duncan talked to her about it.
I rubbed my temples in small circular motions.
It is way too early to be thinking about this, Linzy.
I mean, come on, Gym class at 8 in the morning?
On top of that, I have to worry about getting home and not affecting the time space continuum or whatever.
Sheesh, we've already demolished the fourth wall and faced the kaiju hunters…. though I wouldn't really count that as an accomplishment.
They didn't even say a word the whole time they were there, and I only knew about the control box because I drew it.
Blarg. No real skills there.
Yawning, I laid down on the bench and rested my head on T.B.
'wouldn't you rather have a pillow?'He asked, sounding irritated.
'Nope. I'm too tired right now. Just be a good backpack and let me sleep.'
I felt his mental head shake. 'I don't think Blitz will let you do that…'
right on cue Blitz's voice raged through my ear. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?!"
I opened my eyes slowly and watched as he approached.
"I am tying to sleep." I replied blankly, watching as his face contorted.
"GET-" I cut him off with a silent death glare, the one that means, 'No one messes with me when I'm tired and lives'
His face took on an expression of disbelief.
Passive bookworm Linzy has a backbone?
Yup.
I closed my eyes again and flipped over.
This is my life now, may as well get used to it and catch some z's.
I woke to the sound of the bell.
Quickly I rubbed the sand from my eyes and turned to find Kass sleeping on the bench behind me.
"Kass, wake up. We've got to go. Kass!"
she sat up with a sudden lurch, nearly falling off of the bleachers.
"Whattimeisit?" she asked, her words slurring together.
"Who cares? I just want to get out of here. Let's follow them." I said, pointing to Duncan and Alice as they exited.
I hopped down the last few stairs and ran out the door, T.B complaining loudly as he slammed against my back.
"Ouch! Linzy, quit it! Why are you running? Ow!"
"You're such a baby!" I sniggered.
"What?" kass asked as she trotted up beside me.
"Oh, nothing; just talking to myself."
She frowned. "You should really stop doing that. It'll make people think you're crazy."
I rolled my eyes. "So? When has that ever stopped me before?"
she opened her mouth to retort, then closed it. "Never."
I smiled.
"Exactly."
