Hey, I was bored, so I decided to put something up that I wrote last year for a school assignment. Hope you like it! I will be uploading some work of mine that are blurbs from hafl-finished stories that I wrote. If you like what you see, comment and ask for more!!!!! Thanks!
Let me start off by saying that anything that is described after this was so not my fault. Being the new student at a high school was the worst thing that can happen to you, especially if you were a nerd like me. I made no friends and it was nearing the end of May. Unfortunately, I wasn’t at school on Friday, when the most important announcement of the school year was announced. Since the football team miraculously won the football championships for the first time since this school was built (1920-2012), the oh-so-smart principle decided to award them by ‘freeing’ the whole school from the rules of school for the whole next week. The following Monday, being the oblivious yet studious student I am, I went to school like usual – late.
Once I arrived, I knew that something was wrong. Walking to my locker, I heard snippets of what happened in Friday. That the football team won, and that the school rules wouldn’t apply for this whole week, and nothing that you did during this whole week will be taken into account by the school authorities. In fact, passing by the class rooms, I saw no teachers at all.
Nada.
Zero.
Zilch.
The only people I saw in the rooms were students breaking windows, making out, partying, and of course, the average food fight you see in the cafeteria everyday. I stopped walking and crept closer to the two mentally-crazy boys who were laughing maniacally as they dumped a few bags of baking soda into two sinks of the sinks in the biology room. One had black hair, and the other had brown. Cackling, they opened two bottles of vinegar and another two bottles of unknown substances. The new liquid was puke green and gooey looking with chunks of unknown red pieces floating in it. Carefully, the two boys started to pour the vinegar into the gooey substance when suddenly I thought of an awesome plan.
“Hey guys,” I said cheerily, jumping from my hiding stop from the door, “can I help you?”
The brown haired guy –dubbing him Mouse - jumped up in fright and screamed, and the dark haired guy –dubbing him Bear - just stared at me like I was an experiment. I glared right back at him.
“Oh shi-i-itake mushroom!” cried Mouse, frantic. “Run for cover!!!”
Taken by surprise, I just stood there, not fully understanding what was happening as Mouse started sprinting out the biology room screaming “There’s a bomb! Run away! We’re all going to die!!!!!!!!” Everybody in the school started to freak out and run toward the exits as fast as possible.
“Oh for goodness sake’s Henry,” muttered Bear darkly, as he scooped my up roughly my knees and shoulders. He then proceeded on doing the princess hold on me. My mouth was still not functioning properly, because the next words that flew out of it were “Ablah shabalabamapalapadingdongmimi.”
He looked at me strangely, but continued to speed walk towards the windows and kick them open. I looked over my shoulder and saw that we were 2 stories above the ground and started to mentally break down.
Oh My God, Oh My God, Oh My God, Oh My God!!!!! I thought, I’m going to die! I’m going to dieeeeeeeee……..
Not surprisingly, Bear jumped off the ledge of the window. I squeezed my eyes shut and felt many feelings during those three seconds on the air. I felt like a bird taking flight for the first time. I felt bad for stealing my brother’s last piece of gum. Sorry Fred, looks like you’ll have to beat me up in my next life!
KABOOM!
Feeling heat, I popped open an eye, then another, widened them, and my mouth dropped. The whole school was on fire! The KABOOM was the mushroom of fire. Oh My God….
Thud!
And that was the sound of Bear and me landing safely onto land. He set me down on my feet slowly, and brushed off imaginary lint off his shirt and pants. Then, he stared me straight in the eyes, and monotonously said this as if it were the most normal thing in the world, “Are you crying because Henry and I blew up the school?” He cocked his head to the side.
I looked down, breaking eye contact. Shakily, I raised my finger to my face, and true to his words, I felt tears streaming down my face.
“W-Who a-are y-you guys?”I asked, trembling in fear and awe.
“Oh. You’ve never heard of us?” he inquired, curiosity leaking into his voice. He smirked before answering, “I’m Tyler and the screaming guy was my brother Henry. We are the Knightly brothers.”
“That…was very knightly of you,” and those were the last words I said before I fainted unceremoniously on the ground.
Needless to say, school was suspended for the rest of the week and when the government authorities questioned the entire student body in order to find the culprit, nobody dared step up to tell them who it was, even though there was a huge sum of reward.
That day was also the last day I have ever heard of Tyler and Henry Knightly because I demanded for a school transfer… until the first day of my adventure camp. But that’s another story for another day.
