If you haven't seen this movie, and you want to, this does eventually contain some spoilers. Also, GO AND GET THIS MOVIE OUT FROM YOUR LOCAL VIDEO STORE! RIGHT NOW! It's one of the BEST movies ever.

My other story, "A World Of Change, A Change Of Worlds," would love some lovin'. It's a bit whacked, but I really enjoy writing it, and I think it's quite well written. The first chapter is kinda dodgy but it gets better as you go in. Anyway, enough of my advertising.

On with the story.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hilary was the first to walk into detention. She sat down at the front, and clutched her handbag. She was already bored. They used the library for detention, and it was really quite a pretty place, even if Hilary did avoid visiting it. In the centre of the carpeted room, there were 6 rows of desks, with three desks in each row. There was an abstract statue behind the desks. It was meant to make the whole room appear to be on a higher intellectual level- as if the library staff put the statue their for their personal enjoyment. Hilary cringed at this too. It was cheap looking and she didn't see how having a statue without arms made someone an intellectual. Some nerdy kid came in next and sat down in the row of desks behind her. He looked like a perfectly nice kid. She had no idea what someone like him was doing in here. Then again, she had no idea what she was doing in here, let alone any other kid. She sighed, and she saw Ray walk in. He motioned to the seat at the end of the row of desks. She smiled and gave a "yeah, sure" shrug of her shoulders.

Then the door banged open. A boy with sunglasses, dressed in denim and leather walked it. He had a trench coat and a scarf on, along with grey jeans and a red bandana tied around one of his ankles. He had a red chequered 'hillbilly' shirt on underneath the denim jacket. He was intimidating and dangerous. He knocked things off the desk, took the phone off the hook, spun an ornament and even stole a pad of paper before he kicked the nerdy boy out of his desk behind Hilary. Not that she'd ever admit it to anyone- especially not her friends, but Hilary found the boy unbelievably attractive. But a guy like him liked girls that put out, or did drugs or didn't give a shit about curfew. She wasn't that kind of girl. The worst thing she'd ever done was ditch class to go shopping- and look where that had landed her.

Next came a pink haired girl, whose bangs covered her face. She walked in, head down, dressed in black and grey. She was that weird girl that didn't talk or have any friends. She sat down, and turned away from the group. Ray and Hilary had followed her entry and they looked at each other and laughed at her. She was SO weird!

Hilary then realised that this was it. Thank God Ray was here, because he was about the only person she could relate to. "Look at this bunch of freaks!" she thought "I'm stuck here until 4 o'clock with them? This is going to be the WORST day ever."

Just to add to Hilary's torment, the teacher who took detention walked in. Richard Vernon was well known for lines like, "Next time I come in here, I'm cracking skulls" and "Mess with the bull young man, and you'll get the horns." He was grouchy and mean. The kids generally hated him. Hilary herself had never had a run in with him, so she couldn't really judge him.

"Well, well." He said, looking around at them, "Here we are. I want to congratulate you for being on time"

Hilary had had enough. She was sick of this already. Everyone else in the room was freaking her out. She stood up, "Um, sir. I know this is detention, but I don't think I'm meant to be in here."

He gave her a dirty look and didn't justify her with an answer. She sat back down and noticed a look from Ray. She shrugged her shoulders to say, "what?".

Vernon looked at this watch, "It is now 7.06am."

Kenny checked his watch to see if the old man was right.

"You have exactly 8 hours to think about why you're here and ponder the error of your ways."

Kai leaned backwards and spat into the air, and then caught the spit in his mouth again.

Hilary gasped, disgusted. About to say something, she was cut off by Vernon

"You will not talk."

Kenny went to move chairs, "You will not move from these seats!" He snapped, and Kenny went hastily back to his old seat

"And you," He said, moving the chair Kai had used to put his feet up, "will not sleep."

"Alright people, we're going to try something a little different today. We are going to write an essay." He put some paper and pencil in front of Mariah. "No less than 1000 words. Describing to me who you think you are."

He dropped a pencil and some paper in front of Kai, "Is this a test?" Kai asked him with contempt

He dropped more paper, in front of Kenny this time, "And when I say essay, I mean essay. I do not mean one word repeated a thousand times, is that clear, Mr Hiwitari?"

"Crystal," Said Kai with a sigh.

"Good," said Vernon, "Maybe you'll learn a little something about yourself. Maybe you'll decide whether or not you care to return."

Kenny put up his hand and stood up, "Well I can answer than now sir, that'd be no, no for me."

"Sit down, Kenny,"

"Ah, yes sir. Thank you sir."

"My office is right across that hall," threatened Vernon, "Any monkey business is ill advised. Questions?" He asked

They shook their heads, and he made to walk off. But, Kai stopped, him, "Yeah, I've got a question. Does Barry Manilow know you raid his wardrobe?"

Everyone smiled and held in their laughed. Vernon was less impressed, "I'll give you the answer to that question next Saturday day in detention, Mr Hiwitari." He then stopped, and pulled out his favourite line, "Don't mess with the bull young man, or you'll get the horns."

Kai rolled his eyes, and watched Vernon walk out. "That man," he said, pointing his finger at Vernon's turned back as he left the room, "Is a brownie hound."

Kenny shrugged. Ray loosened his jacket. Hilary sighed. Mariah looked at her nails. They looked terrible. She began to bite them off. There was a loud sound like a click that echoed through the room each time she bit one off. Everyone stopped, and turned to look at her. Mariah just continued to bite her nails. Kai felt his patience with the girl run thin. And they hadn't even been there five minuets yet. She noticed them looking at her, but just kept biting her nails.

"If you keep eating your hand, you're not going to be hungry for lunch." Kai told her.

She bit off one of her nails and spat it at him

"I've seen you before, you know."

She didn't reply, but she did stop biting her nails.

Kai sighed. He had no patience for this today. He looked at the people around him. A princess, a dweeb, and friggin' jock and that kook in the back. He was going to insane before the day was out.
