Something was definitely going on in Avalon High. Not that it had any connections to the King Arthur legend. Because I so didn't believe that, not even when...no, not even when Will cheated on me or when my headache started and then I heard that terrible sound, or even when I saw that other pale face looking at me...No. Not even.
I went back to the track and saw the cheerleaders starting their practice. If--by any reason whatsoever--that King Arthur thing has to do with this--not that I believed it--then I would ask Jennifer about it. I mean, she was Guinevere. I don't think it would only happen to me and not her if King Arthur has to do with this. Yes, I would ask her about it.
I started walking to the spot where the cheerleaders were practicing, when I was cut off by...huh, Kyle.
"Hey, Elle. What's up?" he asked, while wearing his football uniform and holding his helmet.
"Oh, nothing much." I lied, still looking at the cheerleaders. Then I looked at him. "I gotta go."
I walked past him, but he cut me off again. "Hey, Elle. I was wondering if you were busy this Friday."
"You mean tomorrow?" I asked absentmindedly.
"Yeah, tomorrow?"
"Um, no."
"Great, wanna go to the movies?" Kyle asked me.
Then my head started to hurt again. "Yeah sure, gotta run!" I ran away from him and went to the cheerleaders. I looked for Jennifer.
"Um," Suddenly my head started spinning. "Have... you seen...Jennifer?"
"No. Actually she went to the bathroom."
"Kay, thanks!" Despite my headache I ran to the bathroom too. When I got there, I heard the screeching sound again.
"Ugh!" I cried. I wanted to throw up.
"Ellie?" A familiar voice said.
I looked up to see Jennifer clutching her stomach.
"Ugh!" I screamed. My head hurted so much!
I crawled out of the bathroom, and when I reached out I saw two feet.
"Ellie?" I knew that voice, it was Will.
"Will, help...me..."
