It is now Monday morning, rolling out of bed much more exhausted since the fued Saturday. It did take me all weekend to clean, even though it seemed very easily fixable. This slow Monday morning I went downstairs, grabbed my bag and headed to the bus. I chewed on some gum and took a sip of water. At the next stop Sierra got on the bus and sat in next to me. She seemed nervous and worried I wondered why. So I took a deep breath and asked my question? "Are you OK?" I asked
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" Sierra exclaimed
"I don't know, but you don't seem OK. I know we've been through a lot and everything. You can trust me." I said
"Really its nothing. OK!" Replies Sierra
"Ok." I say
Its not long before we reach our stop at school, and head in. Lily trailing behind us from her limo. "Hey guys you'll never believe the dream I had! You guys were in it. Their was clouds, tsunamis, tornados and their was..................a bright light............she was like an Angel." Blabbed Lily
"Angel?" I ask
"Yeah...... I think so?" Lily replies
" This is impossible, this can't be true!" Sierra complains

At that moment the Bell Rings!

"We better be getting to class!...........we will talk about this later.......bye!" Makayla established
In first period, Makayla does her speech that she was unprepared for so she was going to wing it. Everybody had prepared these nicely structured  speeches. After Daniel I was up next, it was my turn. So I  slowly but surely went up to the front and stood before the class. "Their are many reasons why we should have school activities like our art, music, culinary programs. If they were removed then what would we do?, how would we express our schools?-" I don't know what else I would have said if that gust of wind hadn't blown leaves around the room, blown Mr. Barry out the class room and the bell suddenly goes off ( its not even time for second period). Everybody stampedes out the room like a herd of elephants. Poor Mr. Barry in the mist of it, get stepped on like a door mat.

In Science class, They're experimenting with flames (Wrong day to be playing with open flames.) Lily is so fascinated with the flame that she doesn't notice how hot she gets when she is absorbing the flames' energy. Her partner William Keith tries to get her attention and gets a 3rd degree burn on his hand. Will tries calling her back to planet earth, this attempt works much better than the burnt toast result. Lily stanps back and feel more alive and back to room temperature. Now the flame has gone out and the sprinkler goes off. Their was also the emergency fire alarm that set off the bell, and we were released outside.

•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°°•°°•°•°°•°

Math class was fine though no problem, unless you call being rain on by the sprinklers and their was no fire! Mrs. Gordon lead us out in a single file line.(like we were little kindergartens, I thought we had got over that!) We were just going over equations on the board, when Mrs. Gordon's hair started to get wet. Then it all came down like rain like it was dumping the oceans on our heads.

Outside we stood in a huddle 50 feet away from the school. They then began to call roll in each of the class lines."OK I think everyones here" says Mr. Barry
"Max...here!, Devan....uh!...........Jane......present, Rebekah....here!...................................Todd? Where's Todd McDaniel?" Asked Mrs. Gordon
Everyone shrubbed their shoulders. " Oh no!, David! Todd isn't here! He must still be in the building!" Cries out Mrs. Gordon to Mr. Barry Mr. Barry guides Mrs. Gordon to her class and says.... "Its gonna be OK, don't worry I got this!" He smiles at Mrs. Gordon and returns into the building. Inside Mr. Barry heroicly kicks down the door to Mrs. Gordon's room. Not really he just opens the door but he does do it in a hurry to find no one in their but the class paper with water damage. Right when he walking out the classroom he sees Todd running out the bathroom with toilet paper around his feet. "Todd!" Mr. Barry calls
Outside Mr. Barry brings Todd out to Mrs. Gordon " Oh thank goodness you are all right!" Says Mrs. Gordon
"Yea, he's fine just had a bathroom break." Says Mr. Barry
Todd!..........- calls Mrs. Gordon
Mrs. Hudson class was soaked head to toe. " attention!" Calls Mrs. Hudson everyone filed in a line. "Roll Call!.......-" hollers Mrs. Hudson Mrs. Hudson calls roll and everyone is in line, dripping on the pavement.

°•°•°•°••°•°

Finally the office intercom announces that its an all clear, so we return to class to retrieve our bags and head to 5 minutes left of 3rd period. For those five minutes we sat and stared at the board.

Bell Rings

Lunchtime, YAY! Skipped the bathroom and headed on to lunch. Went through the line, and sat at an empty table by the window. Today wasn't the Best, it could have been worst, but you know! Lily came and joined me at my side. " are you OK?" Lil asked " I don't know" I say " hey, why don't we discuss my dream?" Lily asked to get her mind off whatever it is that's she's upset about " OK, so what happened?" I ask "Well......." Starts lily
Then Sierra arrived in front of us. "Can I join you?" Ask Sierra
"Sure" I reply
" are you sure about this ?" Lily ask nervously
"Yes, its cool" I say
"Thank you!" Sierra replies
Sierra sits beside me and Lily began again.
..........and the funny part about it was that the Angel said we were sisters! Ha ha!......isn't that funny?
"OMG!" Sierra and Makayla say in unison
The whole cafeteria turns to our table.
"Sorry" I say
"What!, that's weird I had the same dream!" Sierra exclaimed
"Me too!" I say
" so you're saying the dream was real?" Lily asks
"I don't know!" I say
" this is impossible, their most be some coincidence!"
"I don't believes this is a coincidence, why would it be?" I say
"Maybe because.............." Sierra starts
"Why can't you just believe it might be a sigh?" Lily asked frustrated
Lily and Sierra began to argue.
"You believe the stupidest things, it was just a coincidencal dream that we all had!, can't you just believe that?" Sierra asked
You don't believe in anything or anyone or even in YOURSELF!!!" Back fires Lily
Just when Sierra was about to throw back the insult a bright light appeared before them that seem to be the head of an angel.
"

Uh...Girls, girls you are sisters for goodness sakes! Said Chrystal
"You're real?" Ask Lily
"Yes I am, just like everyone here is real" chrysal said
"You're real!" Says Lily admiringly
"What are you doing here?" I ask
"Where is the rest of your body?" Ask Sierra
I've just come to pop in and check on your process. And my body is back in my world. Chrystal says
"Where is your world?" Ask lily
"You'll find out soon enough, all you need to know is My world is your world!" Chrystal said
She dissolve in thin air just when lily was about to speak then Chrystal reappeared
"And try to get along will each other, your Sisters ok!" And she finally truly disappeared. They just stared in shock at one another, suddenly something happened. They had each other's hands and 3 colorful lights shot up all around them; surrounding them. They came back to reality and broke away and the wall disappeared.
"What was that?" Sierra asked
"How did this happen?" Ask lily
"OMG!" I exclaim
Everybody in then cafeteria was normal the same. Sierra lead them out the cafeteria and to the bathroom, their first natural meeting.
"You were right, I am sorry! Exclaims Sierra She went up to Makayla and hugged her. "I'm sorry too I was wrong I should have ....... I'm just really sorry!"
When they stopped hugging the attention was directed towards lily. I'm not sorry for what I said" said Lily
"Come on " I say trying to convince her
She stood their for a few minutes but then gave in. " ok I guess I'm sorry too! I guess if without you I guess I don't know where I'd be" she confessed
" bring it in!" I said
All 3 of us in a group, teary eyes in all. Not only are we newly found Sisters but now are friends! The bell had rong and 7 th period had came. Like usual we went to 7th period did math problems and Sierra to English. Then came the bus ride home, this time Sierra actually seemed happy to see me. "Hey!" Said Sierra. Was that a smile that I'm seeing ?, yes a smile I see on her happy face. "Hi"- I said
We talked till we got close to her stop. Then the thought came back to me and I began to think about where she lived. I was going to ask but better to end the day with this happy moment, rather than to ruin it. So her stop came and I said bye, she said bye. She then got off and went through the houses. I then began to think that maybe my imagination was taking over my suspicious, but maybe I'm over reacting. Maybe her house is that way.

Sierra walked through the houses and headed...........
