November 30th

Something unbelievable happened today! The old B.R.A.T.s got out of jail!

I was sitting around in first period trying to shoot spitballs at dorks when Lauren and Alyssa walked into the room. Oddly enough there happened to be a random storm shooting lightning in the hallway when they walked in, causing the students and Mrs. Engelhard to scream in terror. Lauren and Alyssa of course ignored them and took some seats next to me; although given how fast the others scooted their desks away, I was the only person they could sit next to. Needless to say I was very glad I decided not to wear my glasses today.

"Hey Vicky, long time no see," Lauren said.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, "Did someone break you out?"

Lauren laughed.

"No, we like, got out on good behavior!"

I'm not sure what defines 'good behavior' these days, but it seems like people get out of jail easier than they should, which is good news for me. Anyway I was happy to see my old friends again. We spent the day tormenting the teachers and other students and we all got together during lunch. It was grilled bacon and cheese sandwich day, so we made sure to get our fill. I just hope the back of school kitchen doesn't have any cameras.

"So what are your plans now?" I asked, after having another sandwich, "Are you going to start babysitting again?"

Lauren laughed and took a bite of her sandwich.

"No: I'm going to conquer Dimmsdale."

I had to ask her to repeat what she said, because I thought I'd heard wrong, but apparently I'd heard right. I knew Lauren had a dark side, but she never really seemed that ambitious, aside from starting up the B.R.A.T group. I was curious as to what she meant.

"What do you mean? Like, take over the babysitting business?" I asked.

Lauren laughed, along with her friends.

"No, we're going to take control of city hall and make all the townspeople do our bidding," she explained with a grin.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. She knew that taking over Dimmsdale was my dream!

"Yeah, it'll like, be fun," Alyssa piped in, "You should join us."

"Yeah Vicky," Lauren said, "You can like, be my right hand."

Alyssa gave Lauren a dirty look and I spoke up.

"I don't think so!" I spat, "If anyone's going to conquer this cruddy town it's gonna be me!"

Lauren crossed her arms and glared at me.

"Like, what are you saying Vicky?"

"I'm saying that if you want Dimmsdale, you'll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands!"

Needless to say Lauren didn't like that very much. She declared me a traitor to the B.R.A.T.s and banned me from the group. Well, if that's how she wants it, then so be it! I'll just have to start up my own group and take control of this town before she does!

Well, I'm going to go work on recruitment posters. Later!

A/N: Vicky finally gets her ambition back. Will she be able to recruit anybody, and if so, will she be able to take control of Dimmsdale? Let me know what you think.
