Chapter #32: Alliance
I left the Asylum, and headed back to the school in the same way as I entered. There I saw Hawthorne with Annie and her twin brother Andrew talking about Grottos & Gremlins, Hawthorne noticed me and came rushing to me. "How was Happy Volts?" He asked. "Mandy's sane enough to get out of the Asylum, but she has go into therapy." I replied, "What we're you talking about?" I asked cogently. "We we're in a debate of Grottos & Gremlins, with the twins." Hawthorne explained. "You know since Algie came back from Happy Volts, he's been suggesting Earnest to form an alliance with you guys." Andrew explained. "Well I'm thinking of forming an alliance with the other cliques, so sure why not." I said, "Tell Earnest to meet me at Dragons Wing Comics after school tomorrow." "Great." Annie said tersely.
After school, the next day me, Absinthe, and Hawthorne went to Dragons Wing Comics, in Bullworth Town, where we we're going to the basement, to see Earnest, along with Fatty, Bucky, and Algie playing some Grottos & Gremlins. "Excuse me." I said, as The Nerds turned their attention to us. "Welcome Malice." Earnest greeted. "I see you came here to join us." Fatty said. "Yeah, we're only here to formally form an alliance with you guys." I explained. "Ah an alliance." Algie said nervously. "I heard from your former members that you invent things to defend yourselves." I explained, as I looked at Earnest in the eyes. "Well we do. It's normally spud cannon, rocket launcher, and stink bombs." Fatty explained, as he revealed some of the weapons The Nerds have. "I see. We would like to use them, in the event of an emergency." I said while I was looking at the weapons, "How much for them?" I asked. "For a new Clique and new alliances five grouts per weapon." Earnest said. "Grouts are G & G currency, Malice." Absinthe whispered to me. "We'll take it." Hawthorne said out loud. "Deal." Bucky tersely said. It was official we are in an alliance with Bullworth's weakest Clique: The Nerds.
Me, Absinthe, and Hawthorne left the store, and went back to the Academy, where the other Goths we're inside the boiler room, talking about our latest alliance. "How it go?" Raven asked. "It was great; we have access to The Nerds' weaponry." I replied. "We could use our brawn and their brains to our advantage." Grimore said, while he was looking at the floor. "Justin we'll get his just desserts." Raven said haphazardly. After a little briefing of what we're going to do. We went to the dorms, for the night, while I and Raven went to our homes in Old Bullworth Vale. I ate dinner with my parents, took a bath, and got my diary.
Dear Diary,
Today I formed an alliance with The Nerds, in hopes to get back at The Preps, especially Allison. Earnest thought of the alliance with us on Algie's suggestion to form one. I'm the tolerant type, so I pity The Nerds in their fight to get even with the stronger Cliques in school. And with our help we hope to make it happen. And tomorrow Mandy is going to come back to school, after spending time in Happy Volts. And I pity her as well.
