Syrus had given you lots of candy in case you felt better. It was just before bedtime. Then, two girls come in and say, "Hi, our names are Shannon and Kioko Blackwell." You are in a state of shock. "Which one is Shannon?" you ask. The girl with the chocolate colored eyes says, "I'm Shannon. I have worse skills than my sister, Kioko, who may move into Obelisk Blue. I may move into Ra Yellow," They say in unison (and whiny voices), "but were in Slifer Red because were too young!" You have had enough of them. You slam the door on them. Kioko says (you recognize her because she sounds different from Shannon), "You're mean. I'll tell Syrus on you." Then, you run to the door and you scream, "NO! NOT SYRUS! ANYONE BUT HIM!" and start sobbing. Then Shannon says, "OK, well promise we won't tell...Syrus." You watch them starting to walk to Syrus room. But then you spot Lisa Bergman, your mean friend, rushing to Syrus and the Blackwell twins going to their rooms. While eating your candy, you try and hear through the walls. "Hey, Sy," you think, only Jaden and I can call him Sy. What's she up to? I'd like you to know that I'm not the mean, sarcastic girl that I've always been. So I came from the Ra Yellow dorm to show it." You moan, "BORRRRRRRRINGGGGG." Then, Syrus asks, "You can hear us?" You say, "Yeah, the walls are paper-thin." You punch through the wall. "Hi, Jaden. Hi, Syrus." You slip your hand back through again and continue on eating your candy forgetting that Syrus can hear you through the hole. Then, he comes over and says that he's concerned about all of the sweets you were eating. You ignore him and continue crunching through. Then you tell him, "I'll finish this pile before I can stop." He denies the idea and tells you that eating too much before bedtime causes indigestion and gives you bad dreams. Then you send him to bed (can you do that?)
Later
on in the night, you continue munching the candy until you feel a bit
sick in the stomach. Then you save your remains and say to yourself,
"I'm a little sleepy." Then you are about to lie down until
a familiar face comes through the door. "Guess what? I got into
Obelisk Blue!"
"Yippee," you say. "Hey,
Karla-warla-wili-wili-washa." Then, you gasp. That's my secret
name my sister gave me! Bianca! "I thought you were in
Australia!" Then, she frowns and just leaves, leaving you to lie
down and rest. But then, you wake up again with a strange feeling in
your stomach. The floor opens, and there is a familiar friend waiting
at the door.
"Kia
Martin?" you say. Then she walks up to your bed. "Yes, the
friend of fire and darkness is here." (Reader: I thought she
appeared in Part 7. Me: SHUT UP! You're ruining it!) You ask, "What
do you want?" She tells you that she will comfort you and take
you away from Syrus. You shout, "NO WAY! Syrus loves me and
he'll come to rescue me, and when he does, you'll be sorry."
Then Kia explains, "Really? Well, why don't we ask him for
ourselves? He's right behind you." Then, Syrus walks through the
door. You run up to him. "Syrus! I knew you'd come here and
rescue me. Boy, that was fast." But he knocks you over and
growls. "You better not come near me again, Karla. You've held
me back for the last time. I am over and done with your little
tricks, Karla." Then Jaden, Blair, Pearl and Alexis come behind
him. Then Blair shouts, "Now we can blame her for everything!"
"It's your fault I'm still a Slifer Red," quoted Jaden.
"It's your fault I have bad grades," shouted Syrus. "It's
your fault I ever believed in friendship," Pearl said. Then,
Alexis said, "We've all had goals. Why is this menace at our
school to stop us?" Then, you snap open as Syrus pushes you off
the bed (you have a single bed so the impact isn't hard.) "Karla,
Karla," he whispers. Then, you shout, "Syrus! What are you
doing?" He smiles and giggles to himself. "I knew you had a
nightmare so I'd manipulate it a bit." Then, he runs to his room
and closes the door. (The hole in the wall is still there, so you
hear what they say next.) "Sy, do you have to be so loud with
the door?" Jaden asked. "Oh, sorry, Jay," Syrus
apologized. Then, you meet another familiar friend.
"Pearl Harding?" She sits
down and tells you about something secret. (You're closer than ever
so you'd tell her everything.) "My first kiss." I yell,
"YOUR first kiss?!?" She cups your mouth and hushes you.
"But I've got a warning. It may permanently damage your heart to
hear it." Shocked and scared by her warning, you move your head
down but she mistakes it for a nod." She clears her throat and
hums a low and high note. "My first kiss hesitates with Syrus
Truesdale." Then, you gasp and a tear runs down your cheek.
She
starts again, "It was at our entrance exams. Remember when I was
put in Obelisk Blue, then I left to check out who could be your
friends, then I stumbled into him. Syrus. I couldn't resist, little
did I know I hardly knew this guy. Then, without further, I leaned in
for my first kiss of true love." After that, Pearl stares at
your face gushed out with sticky tears of heartbreak.
