I laughed as I ran with my brother, pretending to be criminals on the run. "We are so evil!" I screamed. "Muahahahaha!"
As I was laughing and running, I bumped into Mother! Whoops...

Mother grinned. "Now what in the name of Erudite is going on here?" asked Mother. "We're criminals!" I responded. "Fear us!"
"Well, heheh..." Mother chuckled. "Don't get carried away." I smiled. "We won't!"

********

I opened my eyes, snapping back into reality. Heh. I was cute when I was five. "Criminals.." I said aloud. Then it came like a bullet. The last part of that memory...

********

I ran around the corner, but I heard Mother speak. "I...excited...filty..." I leaned closer to hear her better. "Bring him in." she said sternly. That's when I saw a man, about 6 feet, with dirty blonde hair and dark green eyes being pratically thrown in the room.

Everything went by so fast, I couldn't keep up. They were mere seconds of screaming.
Mere seconds of death.

********

I shook my head. That's not important. What's important is the Aptitude Test tomorrow. Just then, I heard a knock at my door. "Who is it?" I asked. "OH WHO COULD IT BE?"a voice replied. I smiled the moment he said "who." I said in my formal tone, "Come in."

Eric walked in with pride, practically strutting in. "Hello, hello!" he sang. "Someone's happy." I reply with a grin. "Course! The Aptitude Test is tomorrow!"

I wish I was happy about that stupid test.

It never should've been invented.

I shouldn't be in this situation.

I shouldn't be so angry about this.
