Sorry guys! I have been such a bad person for not writing at all on this blog. It's insane thought how busy freshman year is.... But I think I'll post a clip now. I never know which ones to post because Aly is such a Nazi she gives me specific rules. Here are a few of the rules she's told me that I have to go by:
-Nothing that gives anything big away (by big she means the ending, main plot, or anything that is gasp-worthy)
-Nothing that gives away any "relationships" in the book because if you haven't picked up on it by now, we're all teenage girls who at one point get boyfriends
-Nothing inappropriate (oh yeah because our book is the very essence of innapropriate behavior, we're only fourteen Aly dearest. I swear if you comment on this one...)
And my rule....
-Nothing I'll regret posting
Lol so that was some randomness on why things I post come across bland sometimes. My good writing is the stuff that is shocking. Its funny and makes you go "Omg!". But anywhoo. Here's something that I really hope my sister hasn't beat me to writing because I think I'm a genius and I will be quite angry if she ruined my thunder by posting the only thing I have in file that fits her the rules. Here you go:
**********
“Izzy. Would you please just shut up for once?!” Aly shrieked at her sister.
“I don’t know why you’re annoyed because you are the one that won’t bloody listen!” Izzy shouted back. She stormed off to her closet in anger stepping inside and slamming the door hard, pulling on the door knob with all her strength.
It came off.
She fell back onto her butt and stared at the shiny doorknob in her hand in horror. That wasn’t good. She stood up and tried to open the door but it wouldn’t budge; it was locked.
“Uhm, Aly?” Izzy asked timidly in fear. She heard nothing. “Aly!” She called a little louder. No response. Then she faintly heard the door to the dorm slam shut and her eyes widened in alarm. All the walls were pretty much soundproof and her sisters were all downstairs.
Izzy began slamming her body against the door which didn’t do much of anything because she was small and weak. She tried everything; replacing the door knob, picking it open, taking it off its bolted tight hinges… but nothing worked. She turned on the light and sat down with a sigh giving up and waited for someone to notice her missing.
Downstairs, Aly had just stomped into the dining hall and Sophie looked around for Izzy.
“Where’s Iz?” Alex asked, knowing the girls were supposed to come down together. Aly slumped into her chair and glared at the tabletop.
“Hopefully in a landfill somewhere,” she muttered.
“Alianne!” Sophie admonished. “Seriously, where is she?”
“I’m not her babysitter. After she annoyed the hell out of me she ran off and hid. She’s probably beating something up in the PE barn,” Aly shrugged.
“Only you do that when you’re mad. Izzy wouldn’t want to break a nail,” Lucy pointed out. Aly muttered something about annoying snobby twins before Sophie shushed her.
“Well, she better not be late for class or she’ll be in big trouble. Midterms are coming up and she can’t afford to miss anything,” Sophie declared. Aly shoved any thought of her twin out of her mind and ate her breakfast.
Meanwhile, upstairs in her locked doorknobless closet, Izzy was getting bored. She looked around for something to do and felt like Sophie when she noticed how messy her closet was getting. She stood up and decided to organize while she waited which she hoped would only be for a very little while. She set to arranging her clothes by color, style, material, brand, and frequency of usage.
Three hours later, Izzy looked at her nice clean closet and sat back down. Why hadn’t anyone noticed her missing from class yet? She had missed Literature, Geography, and PE already, and should’ve been on her way to Computer Technology. By now, Sophie should be flipping out and alerting the disappearance to Aunt Genevieve, but she could hear nothing from the confines of her closet.
Downstairs in Comp Tech, Lucy slipped a note onto Aly’s desk. Aly read it and rolled her eyes, scribbling in her response.
Where’s Izzy??
How should I know?
You were the last one to talk to her
Are you accusing me of something?
Uhm, yes
Why?
Because you were also the last person to see her alive as far as we know
Haha
This is not funny Aly! With all that hacker stuff going on lately, it’s not smart for her to just disappear like this
Try telling her that
“Ladies. Is that something you’d like to share with the class?” Lucius Manor, their Comp Tech professor asked loudly. Lucy looked up timidly at him.
“No, sir,” she said quietly. He held his hand out for the piece of paper.
“Well, I for one am interested in what is so much more important than my class. Now would you like to read it aloud or should I?” He asked. Lucy stared back with wide eyes.
“I’ll read it,” Aly said suddenly, snatching the paper from her sister. She opened her mouth as if to start reading it but stopped and looked up again. “But before I do, are you absolutely sure you want to hear what it says? I mean, its just useless blabber from the deranged minds of two little teenage girls. It would probably lower your IQ level just listening to it.”
The class tittered and Professor Lucius blinked back in shock that she hadn’t just read it.
“Yes, I am positively sure my IQ is up for the task, no matter how dim-witted the note may be,” he said, hinting for her to read it. She looked down at the paper as if to begin and stopped again looking back up, unsure.
“Well, your brain cells might be able to handle it but what about everyone else? I’d hate for my fellow classmates’ brains to have to suffer for you selfishness,” Aly pointed out. Then class tried not to laugh at her casualness and back talking.
“Then I suggest they might want to cover their ears. Please, go on,” Professor Lucius snapped.
“Ok, ok. Don’t get your knickers in a twist,” she said in her strong British accent. Everyone hooted with laughter. The professor fumed with anger. Students had never challenged him. Ever. But this Morrigan lot was different and it was starting to get on his nerves, especially this one.
Aly opened her mouth to read and closed it once again, sitting down as she spoke. “You know, I really don’t feel comfortable lowering my fellow students’ intelligence. It’s so rude of me, so I think I’ll just put this away and we’ll forget it ever happened, deal?”
“No. Read it or I shall,” Professor Lucius commanded. Aly shrugged.
“If you insist.”
She reached across the desk she was at to hand the note to her professor but before he could grab it, she dropped it on top of the open live wires that were coiling out of the homing device she was supposed to be repairing. She grazed her hand over the power button and gave a fake gasp of shock when electricity course through the wires and paper, burning the note to ashes in less than a second.
“Oopsies,” Aly giggled, placing a hand delicately over her mouth in innocence. The room burst into laughter and applauded Aly for her audacity. Professor Lucius seethed with anger and pointed to the classroom door.
“Morrigan. Headmistress’ office. Now,” he said through clenched teeth.
“Which one?” Aly asked sweetly.
“Both of you!” He said angrily. Lucy grabbed her books and rushed into the hallway but Aly took her time, beaming the entire time. She finally made her way to the door and Professor Lucius turned to his desk. She took advantage of his back being to her and she curtsied to her admirers who roared with even more laughter, causing the professor to whip around just as Aly dashed down the hall with her sister.
**********
So did you like it? Aly thought it was hilarious because it's so her. Her and Lucy really are like that. So give me some feedback and hopefully I didn't give away too much or I'll hear about it. Lol I'll try to post more.
Talk to you later,
Isabella
