  Hey Guys! Sorry I've been trying to raise my grades and so here's the chapter.

~~~~~~~~~~

  I'm glad I packed some hair dye and some camo clothes.

I hid Tera's tied up and unconsciousness body a mile from the base.

  I add a bit more makeup on my face to sculpt mine and make it look like Tera's. I spread open my eyes and place a brown-colored contact in my right eye; I do the same to the left. I unwrap the towel around and my hair and allow my new black hair to fall against my shoulders.

  "Tera? Are you alright, you've been in the bathroom for an hour and a half." A woman knocks on the door. I jump and throw the towel and the bag of clothes into a stall and lock it.

  "Who is it?" I manipulate my voice. Good thing I took those acting classes in 4th grade.

The door swings open and a tall woman steps through.

  "Tera! Is something wrong? The Lieutenant is looking for you. We are heading to Afghanistan in ten minutes, lets go!" She grabs my arm and I'm desperate.

  "Wait! I'm just a little jittery, could you give me a minute-uhhhh?" I stutter. Her name! I need her name!

  "Tera, your so worried about Afghanistan you forgot my name! Luci...Luci Rayes. Nice to meet you Tera." She extends her hand and I give a nervous laugh.

  "That's right." I smile and place my hand on the door, slowly backing Luci out.

When the door shuts, I grab the towel and stuff it in my bag. I open up the bathroom window and toss the bag out. Hopefully no one walks by the bathrooms...

  "There you are, Tera!" The Lieutenant  shouts over the plane's engine. I jump inside and sit next to Luci. She gives me a smile and then turns away. I scoot closer.

  "Hey." I mutter. When she doesn't look, I poke her arm and wave my hand.

"Hi. Tera Malamack. Nice to meet you." I wink at her and extend my hand. Luci looks at my hand and raises her eyebrow.

  "Nice to have the old Tera back."

Me and Tera chatter together until we arrive in Afghanistan....
