The Eternals

Let's start at the begining, shall we?

*beep beep beep*
"Shut up!"I moan, slapping my alarm clock. "Cut-it-out!"
Sleepily, I check the time. 7:00. Perfect. I've overslept. Great start to the day, Bridget. Yup, that's me. Bridget. Bridget Lawson. I am Bridget Lawson and I am officially late.

"No! Wait! Please?" I shouted, struggling to keep up with the bus. This couldn't be happening-today is my graduation day and I'm late. Now that I've missed the bus-the ONLY bus for two hours- I will have to walk the six mile journey on foot. Groaning, I began, sure that I was going to miss my graduation. Why me? I'm not usually this careless, nor this pessimistic. I must be tired. Yes, I'm tired, despite sleeping a full seven hours.

I won't describe the details of the long, tedious walk to school. Anxiously, I checked my watch. For some reason, it was frozen-at 8:00. Weird, that's when graduation starts. "Oh well," I shrugged it off, "must be a coincidence."

I was so close now, I could almost taste freedom. After the summer holidays, I was to attend Princeton college. I was very happy to have got in- to be honest I still can't believe I have. Nearly here, now. I stared at my school, squinting to manage to see it. It looked different... almost damaged. Thinking nothing of it, I put my best foot forward and began skipping down the path.

I could never have guessed what would've awaited me.
