I apologize for the late submission, work has been a little hectic this week. But here is the next chapter. Hope you like.
Chapter 2
African Plains-Day
Ariel and Triton sit high in a tree.
Ariel: *V.O.* It had always just been the three of us. And I never thought we'd live any other way. Then, it happened.
Athena: I got it! I got it!
Ariel: You really got it?
Athena: We're going home.
Triton climbs down to give Athena a hug and a kiss.
Ariel: *V.O.* My mom's articles about the familial patterns of large cats had earned her a full professorship at Northwestern University.
Ariel is alone in the tree.
So it was goodbye Africa.
Ariel's front yard- First day of school
Ariel and Athena are getting their photo taken by Triton.
Ariel: *V.O.* Hello, Magical Kingdom, Disneyland.
Photo flash.
Streets of Magic Kingdom
Ariel's parents drive her to school in their mud-covered Africa Jeep.
Ariel: *V.O.* Magic Kingdom was a lot like Africa. Except in every single way.
They pull up across the street from Magic Kingdom High School.
Triton: I know you'll make us very proud.
Athena: Are you nervous? It's okay to be nervous. I'm nervous for you. But nervousness is perfectly nervous. Nervous, nervous, nervous, nervous.
Ariel: Okay. I'll see you at home.
Ariel starts across the street. She is almost hit by a big yellow school bus. She jumps back as her mother yelps.
Athena: Aaah!
Ariel: I'm okay. Sorry. I'll be careful.
Ariel crosses the street. Hip hop blares from a car radio. Ariel passes the different groups outside the school. A group of black students are sitting on the grass.
Ariel: Hi.
They just stare at her. Ariel keeps walking. A bunch of jocks are fake fighting. Some people are getting high behind a tree. An overweight girl is eatingn Egg McMuffins in secret in her car. Ariel has nowhere to land.
Homeroom- A few minutes later
Students are filing in. Ariel approaches the teacher to introduce herself.
Ariel: Hi, I don't know if anyone told you about me. I'm a new student. My name is Ariel.
The woman is actually just a very mature looking girl, who gives Ariel a weird look.
Mature girl: Who cares?
The girl walks away. Ariel is embarrased. She hears two people laughing behind her. They are Jasmine, a tan colored girl with long black hair she keeps tied back behind her. She wears a jade green top with a band name and ripped jeans, and her friend John Smith. He has flowing blond hair, blue eyes, and is definitely gay. Ariel goes to take a seat.
Jasmine: You don't want to sit there.
Ariel looks at her.
Jasmine: Cinderella sits there next to her boyfriend.
Cinderella, a very petite girl with her blond hair up in a bun sits down. She immediately leans over and starts making out with the boy next to her who is very handsome and charming. They go at it hard. Ariel watches in horror for a second, then moves to a front row seat.
Jasmine: Don't sit there.
Ariel looks at her.
Jasmine: Do you want to carry attendance sheets to the office every day?
Ariel looks to a third chair.
Jasmine: No.
Ariel stops. Jasmine points to the guy in front of Ariel.
Jasmine: He farts, a lot.
Ariel looks at the guy. He looks like a guy who would fart a lot. She gets up and sits next to Jasmine.
Ariel: Thanks.
