Chapter 2: Uh Oh Madi!

1 week ago…

"Meghan Eliza Goode! GET UP!" yelled Madi.

"Mmmmmm! 5 more minutes." I said into my pillow.

"GET UP NOW BEFORE I GET SAM!"

I jumped up so fast, then got tangled into my blankets, then landed on the floor.

"THUMP!"

"I'm up! I'm up!" I stood up and practically saluted.

Here's the thing about Sam. She takes after her mom. So when she has to wake you up, she either jumps on you, or douses you in the coldest water imaginable. So you don't want Sam to wake you up.

I looked at Madi. She was rolling on the ground laughing at my reaction.

After she had calmed down, she stood up.

"I need to get you ready for school."

I panicked. I was never letting her near my dark brown hair and she would never get a mascara brush near my blue eyes! I spotted my uniform by the door. So I made a break for it. I ran past Madi, grabbed my clothes, and jumped out the door. She may be a beauty queen with shiny black hair and beautiful brown eyes, but she can perfect herself. Not me.

I disappeared into the first secret passage I found.

I'm like my mom in a lot of ways. I LOVE to disappear. Before I came to Gallagher, after my mom and dad found out I was like mom, she gave me a map and blueprints of all the Gallagher passage ways in the building. I had also uncovered a few of my own.

After I had gotten dressed and was about to leave the passage, my grandmother and step grandfather want passed talking.

"So when are we going to announce to the girls about Blackthorne?" G-pa asked.

"Probably in about a week. If they don't figure it out before then." They laughed and walked into the headmistress's office.

I knew what Blackthorne was. That's where dad, Grant, and Jonas went to learn to be spies/….assassins.

I couldn't wait to tell the girls. I'd probably ransom the information for a week away from Madi's morning beauty rituals. Or a month.

Uh oh! Madi! She was going to torture me when I got back…..
