Where In the Name of Mike Am I?
School was boring that day. Even more so than usual. What's more, since they'd assigned us all to wear uniforms, we weren't the least bit comfortable. In Math class, I was scratching and digging at these nasty little pleated pants like a monkey. Syd and Kayla looked really uncomfortable, and they're not boys. But Syd poked a little at her blouse. It's something to see; Syd in a white blouse. She's always wearing something baggy. Jon and Andy were shifting in their seats. They looked like they were trying to burrow into the chairs. To make matters worse, we had a SUB today!
Now, usually, we do whatever we want when there's a sub. Throw things, pass notes, eat. But this guy, Mr. Hancock, is one heck of a sub. He's got eyes like a hawk, and caught two girls passing notes. He read it out loud to the class, too. Hah, I won't repeat it here. Hancock also yelled at Syd for having a blue streak in her hair, as it was 'vulgar and unseemly'. Needless to say, Syd was in a sour mood all day. He didn't talk to me much, except to point out to me that 'A boy's hair should not be past his shoulders, nor spiky'. Yep, my hair's long, brown and spiked up in the front. Style of a skater.
Anyway, what I'm here to tell you happened in the library. Me and the guys were there, Syd looking for poety, Kayla sleeping in a beanbag, Jon harassing the librarian, Andy reading about Pomeranians (?) and me on the Internet. I was bored, and tired of porn ads popping up like prairie dogs. Avatar fansites didn't appeal much to me, but I decided to see what the new ep was all about and annoy Syd with spoilers later. So, I sought out Google and began to search for a good Avatar fansite. Aha. What I found was the site me and Syd had been to when we got sucked into the Avatar world. (And I didn't dare touch that screen.)
I found a few episode summaries and quickly skimmed through them. Secret of the Fire Nation, seen it. And I still didn't get what the secret was. I read a little more carefully when I got to the episode that premeired after that. The ep itself drove me nuts; I didn't think people smiled THAT much on COMMERCIALS. Poor Syd was almost in tears when Jet was taken away at the end. I wanted to tell her it was only TV, but then I remembered - it was probably really happening!
I didn't find any new ep summaries. But then this weird little icon popped up in the middle of the screen: a picture of a chibi Aang waving at me. The arrow next to him said, "CLICK HERE." For all I knew, it could have been a picture of Avatar porn. (Which I hate.) Or a nuclear bomb. Or a virus. Or Spyware. Or (you may fill in the blank). But, being curious as usual, I clicked there.
FLASH.
I saw stars. The room spun, and I couldn't see anything but white blur.
"Help!"
Thump.
I blacked out.
