Chapter 2 birthday girl

I know when my birthday is and I am 13, do the math...It's not in my point of view but a narrative view.

Haven city below ground

Opal woke up, just before dawn on the surface in Dublin. Her chocolate-brown eyes shooting open, the pixie's hair was a bit longer than her shoulders and her smile as beautiful as ever.

Her younger sister was still sleeping. Kristina; she was 11 years old and looked exactly like Opal but Kristina was only 2 years younger. Kristina had long raven black hair and chocolate-brown eyes. I say that she looked as beautiful as Opal and they are the Koboi twins. Opal loved her sister and if anything had happened to her, then she'll get revenge upon that person. Opal loved her family, but she loved being intelligent as well.

Opal was the smartest out of all her siblings (she had 3 others) and could beat them at any quiz or test. Her parents expected very little of her, but Opal could do more than they expected. Opal wanted to do business like her father, but he sat her down and told her to keep the business to hard-working male pixies, which was sexist towards the women. Opal grew up with old money pixies on Principality Hill. Opal wished that she was what her father wanted, with the traits she had now too.

Opal had to be quiet, since her parents and siblings were still sleeping. She walked up to the calendar and smiled. The date that was on the calendar had a star on it with MY B-DAY inside the star. She knew that B-day wasn't Gnommish it was the short form for birthday which was not how she 'rolled'. Opal thought today would be different, since it was her birthday. She loves her family but hates the things they get her. Opal prefers technology over 'girly' things like perfume and make-up, but she thinks her clothes are perfect for her. Opal wanted for her birthday was her parents approval to invent things that would sell all over Haven, but she knew that her father, Ferall Koboi would disapprove. Opal had a little room in her house which she called her study. She writes fiction stories about herself ruling the world and hopes it would become reality someday, but she knew it was impossible for that to happen.

It was noon, Opal was in her study making blue prints of inventions that would be a big hit within Haven. She thought about what would her company be called in the future, if she even went in engineering, but now she was more into the Arts than inventing things, to her it was only imagination.

"Opal laboratories, Koboi Inc, Opal Koboi organization, Koboi laboratories." Opal blurted out ideas then she heard a loud knock on her door. Opal covered her mouth, if it was her father. The door opened slowly, then all Opal could see at the moment was a forehead, then a head, it was Kristina. Opal smiled.

"It's noon Opal, I didn't see you in the room, so I didn't have the chance to say Happy birthday and give you my present." Kristina walked in with a small gift that she wrapped well. The gift had purple gift wrapping and a black bow. Kristina smiled, hoping that Opal would like her gift. Opal opened the gift, ripping the wrapping. To find a small box that had the cover on top of it. Opal lifted the top to show the present that Kristina got for her. Opal's eyes filled with joy.

"I can't believe that you got this for me Kristina! But how?" Opal gazed at the small gift lifting her present. She didn't realize how bad of a sentence she used then. The present was a microchip that could help her run things that she wanted to invent shortly.

"I know people. Father wouldn't approve this present and since you like art I have another present for you that Mother and Father know about."

"Thank you for this gift Kristina I appreciate the thought, now will you excuse me I have to work." Opal looked at her desk that had blue prints upon it and Kristina nodded and left the scene. Kristina knew that Mother and Father forgot Opal's birthday and thought it was one of her brothers not hers. Kristina knew that their parents didn't really pay attention towards Opal or her life now since that she's the middle child. There was loud walking towards her door, then something got slid under her door. It was a box of truffles it had a note upon it.

From Kristina, another gift since our brothers won't give you anything... Opal opened the box and there laid chocolate truffles. The box was heavy and Opal knew that there was a lot of truffles. Opal smiled. She loved truffles it was her favourite thing to eat.

Opal went around the house to find her mom. Her name was Stephanie. Opal called her mom, Mother. Stephanie was in the kitchen preparing a cake. Opal smiled at the sight of the cake making.

"Greetings Mother what are you doing at this very moment?" Opal used a formal tone for the first time. Stephanie glanced at her then went back to making the cake. She hurried and placed some ingredients into a bowl.

"Good afternoon Opal I am making a cake one of your brothers" Stephanie was too busy to see Opal's reaction. Opal's mouth opened. She was surprised, Opal reminded her Mother about her birthday yesterday but she failed to remember.

"What?" Opal said in annoyance. Some rage was building up in her eyes.

"It's one of your brother's birthday today or was it your sister?" Stephanie wondered about who's birthday it was and Opal was very much insulted by her Mother not remembering.

"It's mine for goodness sake mother." Opal nearly screamed in her face.

"No I am sure that it's Jacob's or was it Tyler's" Stephanie slightly smiled.

"Mother I know when I was born, don't be a simpleton." Opal rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. The thing about Opal, her feelings get built up then she explodes.

"Excuse me what did you say Opal?" Stephanie was shocked about what her daughter said to her own Mother. Stephanie put her hands on her hips then had an annoyed look on her face.

"I said don't be a simpleton..." Opal repeated in her Mother's face. Now Opal's eyes filled with anger.

"Opal go to your room now!" Stephanie pointed a finger towards her room. Opal wasn't astonished by this reaction.

"Why should I? You always forget whose birthday it is, since you had so may kids. The only person who knows it's my birthday is Kristina!"

"She's only 11 years old Opal which is very young she hardly knows anything yet."

"She's highly intelligent Mother I teach her everything I know."

"Everything you know..."

"I bet Father will know it's my birthday!" Opal stormed out of the kitchen feeling like she could just kill her Mother. Opal thought she would have a better life without anyone to nag her around. Opal didn't obey her Mother's words and went towards Ferall's study. Opal quietly knocked on the door. Opal could hear typing on the computer, it was most likely that her Father was working on his growing business. The low voice came through the room.

"Yes?" Ferall said politely.

"It's me Opal..." She smiled behind the door but Ferall didn't see that since that the door was in the way.

"You can come in." Opal entered the study and walked towards the side of her Father who was working away. Opal was interested in her Father's job and maybe she could make a company. Opal smiled, then her Father looked at her in a weird way.

"Why are you here Opal?"

"You know what day it is right?"

"Of course Opal it's Tyler's birthday today and other than that my company has been successful for 10 years! There will be a party and I'll shall return before mid-night." Opal couldn't believe it, her Father knew about her birthday but maybe her Mother brain-washed him.

"No it's my 13th birthday, I finally get to get magic!" Opal had a tone in her voice that she was very excited, but her Father wasn't.

"No, it's Tyler's 13th birthday he gets to finally get his limited magic." Opal knew that it was Tyler's birthday also, they shared the same birthday but she was younger by one year. Opal was astonished by her Father, since he knew when Opal's birthday was...she thought her Mother brain washed him about her brother's birthday... Opal put her palm on her forehead and shook her head. Opal knew that her brother Tyler and herself shared a birthday but he was turning 14 not 13.

"No Father it's mine." Ferall Koboi wasn't impressed by his daughter's reaction and glared at her.

"Opal Belinda Koboi. You have to respect Tyler's birthday and he will be inheriting my business after I retire." Ferall went back to typing on his computer and Opal sighed.

"Why can't I inherit the business? Besides I am smarter than that fool." Ferall turned around with a no emotion showing on her face.

"Let the strong men handle the business, go back to your room and stay there till you have to come down for Tyler's party." Opal let out a big sigh and slammed the door of her Father's study running to her room were she found Kristina with another gift. This time the git was big and it was wrapped with the color of blood and black. Opal's day was turning over a bit but why was Kristina buying her all these gifts?

"Another gift?" Opal asked and Kristina nodded. Opal let a tear drop escape her eye lid and it slid down her face.

"I know Mother and Father would not remember your birthday so I am trying make it better."

"I want to get revenge upon them..." Kristina smirked and nodded.

"What to pull a prank upon them or should I just scream and yell at them till I get what I want?"

"Prank is better than your shrieking..." Opal felt something growing within herself and she thought it was normal but it was the hate growing inside of her and ready to just burst out of her like an explosion that would kill any living source. The Opal thought about a bomb she could invent... Bio-Bomb

I know Opal is very OOC but this is her past and I thought she was a nice kind of person before she turned evil, this is a story more different from Eoin Colfer's back story of Opal Koboi. Right now (in this chapter) She is starting to turn evil.

Thanks for reading and What will Kristina and Opal have planned as a prank towards their parents for forgetting her birthday? What will happen after Ferall comes back after his 'Party'? Is this party like a human part where they give out drinks for Adults? Find out in the next chapter 3 Pranks & Parties
