Chapter 2

(Dec 13th 2009 12:40 pm)

The bell rings, and I mean a literal bell. As in a giant liberty bell kind of thing that hangs over our school in a bell tower. We’re a little old fashioned here in Rosegate. 

“Brain Activity test is going on now” I ask looking at him.

“Yep” Andy replies as I stand up. I hold up a hand to help him up. He takes it and pulls himself off the ground. He picks his and my back packs off the floor and holds out mine to me.

“Where to then?” I ask grabbing my backpack and balancing it on one of my shoulders.

“Building 7” Andy says. “The test is being done in individual rooms there”

              “OK then” I say. “Let’s get moving”.

We walk to building 7 and when we get there, our entire math class is stands like a flock of sheep waiting to be herded. The entire building echoes with meaningless chatter ranging from the only college football team in Rosegate (Go Petals! Are you fricking kidding me, it’s incredibly hard to get excited about that) and the science fair projects due at the end of the week.

But all conversation stop when she walks in the room. She had that look, one that made you feel like she could stop wars. Her entire look reminded me of a sheet of paper. The woman was pale wit paler hair flowing down her back. Her lips pressed together in a tight thin line. She is dressed professionally, in a red office dress.

8 guys come in behind her, wearing dark suits and carrying briefcases. All the men stand around her.  The pale women gestures to one of the suited men and he hands her a megaphone. She pulls her lips to the mouth piece and begins to speak. Her voice echoes around the brick walls.

“Hello there students my name is Dr. Maria Charles” she said. “Head of Orbital Systems and the brain activity tests project director”.

“This project is very complex and does not require the need for and nonsense” she continues. “I expect we won’t have any problems”.

         The group of students nods slowly like they are under mind control or something else from Andy’s superhero world.

“So here’s how this is going to work, we will call you up by order of last name. When we call you, you will report the room you are told to go to. Directions for the test will be given to you in that room. Understood.”

The group nods again.

“We will be starting as soon as we set up” she says as the group of suits split up into the three rooms in the building.

        “Wow she was intense” Andy says as the Doctor (not the one with the Tardis) follows one of the groups of suits. 

“I know right” I agree with him.

“I just hope I don't get stuck in the room she’s directing” Andy says. “She is super creepy”.

“Me Too” I agree.

After another 10 minutes the tests begin. One by one students are called up and walk into the rooms. You are not allowed to talk to anyone who has taken the test if you haven’t so I’m left with nothing to do. Finally my name is called.

“Lorelai Parker” My name rings out and I walk up to suit and he tells me to go to a room on the far right. I enter and see that this test was the one being run by creepy lady. Just great.
