Hi guys, today has been a better day I suppose and thank-you to Zach-Goode' and two guests's who reviewed even though you really didn't have to! But anyway, I was gonna go through some ages of Morgan but to be honest I can't be bothered and now is really when the story/one-shot thing starts. So anyway let's rewind some years and now Morgan is 12 and she's having a taster day at Gallagher Academy.
One last thing because I think the news is depressing (and is the reason why I didn't want to go on a plane when I went to Florida and Jamaica!) I haven't really seen heard about that bloody Hurricane Sandy but just be very careful guys, stay safe please and keep me informed.
The Goode Family: Gallagher Academy: first impressions
Morgan aged 12. Morgan's POV
I jumped out of bed instantly when I heard my alarm clock go off. I ran to my laptop, logged on and set up Skype. Georgia and Danny were finally on screen.
"Can you believe it?!" cried Georgia jumping up and down.
"Calm down man" that was the cool and manly voice of Danny. Puberty hit him first; he's gotten taller, fitter and cuter! But he's like a brother to me, and plus it's funny when his voice has the occasional squeak!
"Yeah, Danny's right. I mean this is only a day at Gallagher; we've got a month until we properly start. So, what should I wear?" I heard Danny sigh and Georgia reciting her list of the best things to wear judging on the weather (sunny) and the school (I mean this is a spy school, we could even have a surprise mission!).
After changing outfits three times (and Danny moaning and then eventually saying good-bye) I settled on jeans, a white polo shirt with matching converse and a red zip-up hoodie.
When I came down stairs mum and dad were in the kitchen. Mom was eating some toast while texting and dad was reading the news paper.
"Morning honey," said Mom when I'd just come in, "are you excited for today?"
"Am I excited? I'm ecstatic, I seriously can't wait! I hope Georgia and I are roommates" I said inching toward mum hoping that she'd mentioned it to Grandma Rachel.
"Well", she shrugged, "who know?" My mom and dad are always keeping me on my toes.
"Well I'm sure you'll be fine! You've got some skills Morgan, trust us" he glance at mum.
I took my toast from the toaster and sat next to dad. "Dad, what's it like at Blackthorne? Danny wanted to ask his dad but he's away so I said I'd ask you"
"Hmm, I don't know." I looked real close at dad. His breathing seemed normal and his eyes were sharp, it looked like he was telling the truth.
"But, you, Uncle Grant and Uncle Jonas all went to Blackthorne. How come mum remembers Gallagher and you can't remember Blackthorne?!" okay, maybe I was being a little demanding and should have stopped when dad said he didn't know, but I just wanted to know. He took a deep breath and walked out leaving mum and I in a loud silence.
"You get your bag ready and I'll talk to Zach, okay?" my mum walked out the room and left me alone. I took a bottle of Coke out of the fridge and a packet of crisps and went o my room to pack. My mom said that it was always good to keep a bag with you at all times, especially at Gallagher. My bag had all the necessities: my iphone, ipod, food, drink, spare clothes and books. I came out and heard my parents talking.
"I know Zach, but you've all heard it. Blackthorne is different now and the Circle is over, right? We've killed, tortured and maimed every single one of them, they're not coming back! Well unless they have a secret child we don't know about but I seriously doubt that, okay?" my mum kissed (yuck!) my dad.
He looked up and said. "I know we know. I just don't want Danny learning anything he shouldn't be, well until he is the right age"
I took this as my opportunity to come out of the shadows. Mom and dad regained their normal positions. Mom gave dad the car keys and he walked out the house wordlessly.
"Okay honey you ready?" asked mom.
"As I'll ever be" I answered and stepped outside.
(A/N: now, I don't know where Roseville is or any other state it's close to, I'm not good at geography, I seriously ain't I actually didn't know how many continents there are. FACT FOR TODAY: THERE ARE 7 CONTINENTS! So let's just say they live not to far away.)
When we were driving down the long road I started to feel queasy in my stomach.
What if I wasn't good enough? Would they expect me to be brilliant since I'm the daughter of two legacies? Would I make any friends?
I've never been to normal school before but I do know about the clique situation, I wonder what group I would be in? Is there a legacy group?
"Well Morg, this is it. Now, you go there, make some friends and enjoy yourself alright?!" my mother leaned over from the front seat and planted a kiss on my cheek.
"Have fun Morgan" said my dad and he kissed my forehead. I guess I'm forgiven, whoopee!
I got out the car and took a good look at the great building. I guess from my height it was huge but I bet from teachers and parents it was just big. But it is still beautiful. I walked to the open wooden doors and walked in. Girls, tones of girls were already talking and mingling. But they all stopped when they saw me.
I heard some of them whisper in various languages.
OMG, qui est lui ? Elle est fille du caméléon? She asked her friend in french if I was really the Chameleon's daughter.
Das ist ihr? Whoa, sind ihre Augen wie ihr Vater und ich hörte, dass er war herrlich! Another girl this time in german said that I have eyes just like my dad (and that apparently he is gorgeous!).
And lastly, それは彼女のですか？彼女は見るべきじゃないか ！ I think she said that in Japanese but I'm still a little rusty to know exactly what she said but from the disgusyed look on her face I don't think it was nice. I smirked, held my head hight and walked down the hallway towards the body of a girl with shoulder lenght black hair.
"Hey Georgia" she turned around and hugged me instantly.
"Hello Morgan!" after hugging me she introduced me to our first roommate.
"Hi, my names Maddison Evans and you don't need to tell me who you are because all of the girls are super jealous that we're roommates." Madi had pale skin and shiny red hair with a side fringe. Judging by the clothes she was wearing Madi wasn't a fan of all things girl. We wore black jeans with a black tank-top and a black hoodie. Black seems to be her colour!
"Well it's nice to meet you" I stuck my hand out and she hesitated before shaking it.
"Now all we have to do is wait and see who our other roommate is!" said Georgia.
"You mean you didn't see?" asked Madi.
"See what?" I asked.
"Well your best-friend here is a genious. She hacked into the database and found out who our roommates are!" Madi actually smiled and gave Georgia a pat on the back.
Georgia became all modest and spoke about how 'it was nothing' and 'that she would gladly do it again'. She went to say more but the big heavy doors closed and the ones opposite it oppened revealing our headmistress. Grandma Morgan looked really good (for an old lady) in her white shirt and black pencil skirt. Without words the whole class followed her into the hall. We sat in our designated seats and listened to her speech.
"Welcome girls, to Gallagher Academy. The Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women only accepts the brightest girls into our ranks, and those who clearly demonstrate the heart, courage, and drive to accept the many challenges this school has to offer. There is a variety of girls here today, some with parents who are spies and some whose parents are normal I hope that they will be treated the same. And more importantly I hope you enjoy today" we all clapped and started talking amongst ourselves until all the teachers came and it was time so stand again.
"…Learn Her Skills, Honor Her Sword, Keep Her Secrets." Everyone clapped again and the doors opened again. As we walked out, ready to be assigned our rooms and inmates I thought about my mum. I thought about how she walked these halls and how she must have felt. All I know is that I may be a legacy but I'm not going to try and be someone I'm not. I'm just going to be me. Same old Morgan Rachel Goode.
There we go 1000 words and more. I hope you liked that, the other parts will be coming and we'll see what friends Morgan makes and if she enjoys spy school!
