"Ew, Bio. Remind me again why we have to take this useless subject?"
Queens, New York, April 2016-
When Alison Marnell woke up on a rather ugly Wednesday morning, she knew that the day would be extraordinarily awful. Her mind was reminded of the Bio test she had, which, for a freshmen like her, was absolute death, and the quiz in Geometry about figures or something like that.
She gave a groan as she pushed herself out of bed, her alarm clock still ringing to the tone of "Highway to Hell." To Alison, nothing was as great as finding out that your younger brother had, yet again, hacked into your digital alarm clock and changed the song.
Normally, Aliso would wake up to the pop tune of Demi Lovato playing "Confident", reminding Alison to get up and, as the song title said, be confident of the new day. Most of the time, it really didn't work, but hey, as long as it got her out of bed Alison was just fine.
Slipping on some ripped black jeans and a casual blue plaid t-shirt, Ali swiped her backpack and its contents from her desk chair, and walked out of her room. Her brother Charles was already in the kitchen, working on some sort of technology.
The 13 year old was tinkering with what seemed to be a drone, attaching a camera of some sort to the small white drone. His chocolate brown hair, normally styled in an almost mini swoop, was still rather messy from sleep.
Charles seemed hard at work, so when Alison came behind him and "accidentally" smacked his head with her backpack, his mood went from one of concentration to one of annoyance. "What a nice good morning greeting." He shook his head in an amused manner.
Alison didn't respond, instead opting to take a bagel that Charles left in the toaster for her out of the machine, sticking the bagel in her mouth. She gave some sort of muffled greeting to Charles before walking towards the door.
Taking the bagel out of her mouth, Alison reached for the door with her free hand. "Charlie, don't forget that Lexi's gonna be picking you up today. I'm hitching a ride from her, I don't want to take my bike to school today."
Charles gave a small thumbs up in Alison's general direction to show he received the message. "Have fun, and don't do anything stupid today." Those words were an almost unspoken tradition in the Anderson-Marnell household, and today wasn't going to be the day in which that tradition was broken.
Alison gave her traditional laugh, walking out of the apartment and into the hallway. She shut the door behind her, deciding to skip the wait of the elevator and walk down the eleven flights of stairs to the lobby.
