Capricorn

It was one a.m. Monday morning. Capricorn couldn't sleep. Something was bothering her. It was like an itch you couldn't reach. She lay in bed and thought of the possible reasons as to what was bothering her. She couldn't think of anything but Virgo. She was worried him.

"He doesn't need your help."

"I bet she's only trying to help to seem like a hero."

"She's stupid and pathetic to think that anyone would even like her."

"Shut up. It's not look any of you would understand." Cried Capricorn.

"We understand perfectly. You're desperate for attention."

"Once she's done with her plan, you won't need anyone."

"There will be no need for friends and attention.

"What are you talking about?"

"You could join her Capricorn. You'd be powerful and adored."

"Who are you talking about?"

"The Queen of the Stars. Join us and you could be just as important."

"Shut the hell up!" Screamed Capricorn.

"Are you okay? You've been talking to yourself for a while now." Asked Libra.

"I'm okay." Libra looked unconvinced but ignored it and went to sleep. Capricorn lay awake, thinking of what the two voices had said. Who was the queen and what was her plan?

Libras alarm went off at half past six in the morning. Capricorn still lay awake.

"Capricorn!" Yelled Libra for the fifth time. Capricorn jumped up.

"What is it?" She asked.

"Get up. We leave in an hour." Said Libra. She walked off to take a shower. Capricorn made her bed and got ready for school. She walked downstairs to find Taurus and Libra arguing again.

"What is it this time?" Capricorn asked.

"Whether a dollar sign has one or two lines going through it." Answered Gemini. She was watching them both carefully. Capricorn watched them both as well. It looked like Taurus was winning again.

"Just Google the fucking answer for yourself." Libra shoved her phone at Taurus, who was furiously typing the question.

"It has one line going through it. Fuck you. I win." Shouted Taurus.

"Pay me, idiots." Said Pisces smugly. Virgo and Gemini handed Pisces five silver coins. Capricorn giggled and left them to go make her own bowl of cereal. Once everyone in the house had finished eating, the set off for their walk to school. Capricorn walked with Leo, who was telling the story of the man at the airport and outside of her room. Capricorn talked of the voices she heard earlier that morning.

"That's creepy. What if it means something all together?" Asked Leo curiously.

"Yeah. Am I the only one hearing weird messages in my music?" Said Cancer after hearing their conversation.

"We need to ask someone about this." Stated Capricorn. The bell rang and she and Cancer walked off to Geography. Miss Antlia taught her lesson. Capricorn was reading her textbook, not paying attention. The bell rang and everyone packed their things. Miss Antlia called out what they had for homework. Cancer left for English Literature, while Virgo joined Capricorn on their way to Math. The lesson started out completely boring when something strange happened. Their teacher Mr Draco vanished leaving red flowers behind. Everyone thought it was a trick, but he had not come back since the bell rang for lunch. Capricorn sat with Leo and Cancer. She told them of the events that lesson.

"Our teacher disappeared too, but first turned into the man I saw earlier." Said Leo. She shuddered before eating her sandwich.

"We have to tell someone about this." Suggested Cancer.

"We'd have to tell someone trustworthy." Said Leo. Capricorn sat there thinking of someone they could trust the most. Someone who could help them.

"Try Mr Lacerta." Said Cancer. Capricorn shook her head.

"I don't trust him." She said. The bell rang and everyone went to their next lesson.

School was over and almost everyone met at the house. Aquarius and Pisces were in detention, and Scorpio wandered off to Orion House.

"Fuck you!" Shouted Taurus.

"You wish." Said Gemini. Taurus screamed in frustration and threw a glass of water at him.

"What's wrong?" Asked Virgo. He stood in between the two, trying to separate them. 

"She said that I was a talentless shit." Whined Gemini.

"It's because you are, you dumb fuck." Taurus' voice was an octave higher than usual. Leo was trying not to laugh.

"What did he do to upset you?" Asked Virgo.

"Your fucking douche of a friend made me a burnt grilled cheese and refuses to make me another." Said Taurus, who was shooting daggers in Gemini's direction.

"I have shit to do. Do it yourself." Said Gemini. Taurus screamed in frustration and threw the burnt sandwich at him. It was black and hard. Leo burst out laughing and Sagittarius was giggling.

"Make me a fucking sandwich!" Yelled Taurus. Virgo pushed Gemini away and turned to face Taurus.

"I'll make you a sandwich." He said. Taurus shook her head furiously.

"He has to make it." Said Taurus.

"If he does, he'll spit in it." Reasoned Virgo. Taurus shook her head.

"I asked that dumb cunt to make it, therefore he shall." She said. Her face was red and she had a headache.

"Fine. I'll make your fucking sandwich." Gemini got up and made her sandwich.

"Finally." Taurus walked off to watch tv. She was so stubborn.

"She is such a bitch." Muttered Gemini.

"Thank you, doll." Yelled Taurus from the couch. Gemini flipped her off and made her a sandwich. Capricorn walked away and left to do her homework with Cancer.

They sat in his room with their work sprawled all over. Capricorn had just finished her geography homework and was moving on to math. Cancer fell asleep doing his biology assignment. A few minutes passed and it was quiet downstairs. Capricorn was suspicious but carried on with her work. She got a fright when Cancer shot up and ran downstairs. She watched him run out before hearing a scream. The kind that sounded like someone being murdered.
