Nea
Fluff the pillows, fold the blankets, wipe the table... everything must be perfect! My mind reminded me as I rushed to get the house ready before--
"Yes!" I said, as I heard a knock the door. On my way to the door the clock said 7:00 p.m. Perfect timing. I opened the door and all four of my friends walked in with there sleeping bags and backpacks.
"Who's ready to party?" Rina exclaimed, while applying golden eye shadow over her eyes. It brought out her green and gold flaked eyes.
"I am!" I am Callie said, in her loudest voice that was barely at normal volume.
"Let me get the popcorn and soda. Make yourself at home!" I said as I made my way into the kitchen. I heard the girls talking about tonight's party schedule. I heard a lot of talk about a makeover...
"Let's get this party started!" Sydney yelled over the girls talking. She threw on the T.V. and laid out her sleeping bag and blasted the volume. I quickly brought in the snacks and set them neatly on the table, then took the remote from Sydney and turned the volume to an appropriate level. It really was perfect.
"What are you watching?" My older brother, Chase, said while getting grape flavored soda and a cup from the table.
"I don't know. What are we watching Sydney?" I asked.
"World of Dance! What else?" Sydney said while tapping her fingers to the beat of the song. She pouted when it was commercial break.
"So are we going to get this party started or what? I got a few ideas but--" a gasp interrupted Rina's sentence.
Glass shattered all over the floor, with Chase standing there pointing to the T.V. It was my dad's lab, on fire.
Callie
I stared at Nea, with tears streaming down her face. I pulled my hair in front of my face to hide behind. I looked around the room and everyone just stood there speechless. Nea, dodged the glass on the floor and ran to the window looking at the lab in view. Then she ran toward the door grabbed her shoes and left without another word.
"Nea, no!" I found my voice and screamed as she ran out, ignoring her friends shouts and protests. We were so loud we woke Nea's mom.
"What's going on? Is everything okay?" Her mom asked looking at Chase and then the T.V. She covered her mouth with her hand and looked around the room, probably looking for Nea. Nea!
"Girls, we have to help her! Come on!" I said as I grabbed my shoes and ran out the door. I looked behind me happy to see my friends coming. I don't want to do this alone. I looked ahead and Nea was running into the lab. She was a fast runner.
I ran in the lab with everyone and screamed her name over and over. The flames licked my face as I ran. I've never felt so brave.
"Nea!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. Then, I saw a scientist in a pencil skirt and heels speed walking to the door. I watched as she placed her hand on the wall and then--
"The doors are now closing! Evacuate immediately! "Speakers where saying this above us, and then I saw a man and girl walking toward me. Nea! All of the girls ran over to help with her father, but then when I turned my head the doors were almost shut. I grabbed his arm and put it over my shoulder.
"We aren't going to make it!" Rina screamed, over a piece of the ceiling falling behind us.
"We may not... but he can!" Nea said as she grabbed him and slid him under the door.
With us trapped inside.
