TPT : The unPlanned Tragedy

Chapter 3

             "Here, help me with this and this and this" said Ms. Bartle. She gave all the thing she bought to Blate. Too heavy yes but she could handle it. "Gah, are we done yet? These thing is heavy'' Blate struggled with all the boxes and plastic bags.
Ms.Bartle ignored her complain, she was busy bargaining and buying some fresh food for all the students. She watched every store there. She also saw the big old castle on the cliff. Felt nostalgic. Then all of the sudden,  she saw a teenager was running pass her, the teenager looked like in a hurry. Seems like the thugs were chasing her. All the things on her hands blocking the view, so she couldn't see who was running and who was chasing clearly.

             "Wait up friend, why did you take me to this market again?" said Stargazer while running by the crowd. The more she ran towards the little shadow, the more it dissapear.  She was very confused there because there was nowhere to go. Riley and her friends chased her, because Star didn't obey them and rather running another way from them.
But then, a tent for a seller blocking her way. She stopped for a moment, then she found a way to run, slipped under the desk.

"Argh, shit I'm hungry." she mumbled to herself while running like the wind. Then, she saw a girl that lifted so many things on her hand, she got an idea. Without the girl noticed, she took one food while running. She ate it in a hurry, she almost choked.

              On the other side, Blate felt something was missing in one of the box she was carrying. It was the pear. If Ms. Bartle knew she could be angry. It was the best pear that she bought with low price after bargained it for like 2 hours. So, Blate put down all the box and ran to find the girl. Hoping Ms. Bartle didn't noticed her running away. The girl with nike style with the color blue, dark purple, and gold as she remembered. Honestly, she never saw that girl. She followed behind the thugs who chased the girl.

            Star was still running throughout the market, she found a dead end. She was unfocus on the road, that she was on the wrong path. She looked around tried to find a place to hide from the thugs.

"Halo" a girl appeared in front of her. Stargazer was very startled, she only gasped, almost fell, but got back on her feet again, then quickly closed the girl's mouth, so she wouldn't make a noise that will exposed them both. She was in crouched position behind two big trash can. The girl was also in crouched position.

"Huhh, You scared me." Star released a breath, then placed a hand on her own chest.
"Sorry, but are you stealing my pear?" Blate asked her calmly, almost whispering.
"Are you with those thugs?" Star didn't answer her question, she was so focus  keeping an eye in case one of the thugs saw them.
"Nope.. I'm here to pick up my pear from you."
"Girl, it's just a pear. Besides, I'm hungry." Star grunted and rolled her eye. Blate looked confused at first, then nodded at her.

Star made sure that they were safe, then she started the conversation,
"Alright, let's just talk from the start. Hi, my name is Stargazer Flinkies Dark. And I don't have a home or money." Star made an eye contact with Blate and shook her head.

"That's a cool name, my name's Vlodianne Astrome Blate. But, just call me Blate. You said you don't have a home, then where do you sleep in?" Blate asked with an innocent voice and genuine smile on her face, thinking that she had made a friend.
"I have a place. It's like a shelter,  wasn't to good, but that's where I rest my body. Wanna come by?" Star smiled back.
"Alright, but I must go back to the school as soon as possible. Oh my, I forgot about Ms,Bartle." Blate realized that she had left Ms, Bartle alone with all those boxes and everything.
"Miss what now?" Star confused.
"Oh man, I hope she didn't get mad at me."
"Hey, you said you lived in that boarding school? How does that feel like?" Star asked her curiously.
