Trouble Chpt. 3

As I went in the classroom everyone started to stare. Then all my blood went to my face. Mr. Coopy tried to say something to me.
"Hello C-c-c-car-ra. Y-y-you m-m-may sit-t-t in the b-b-back."
He smiled.
"M-m-my treat-t-t!"
"Uh, thanks Mr. Coopy." He smiled even wider, flashing his white, crooked teeth. I realized he was obsessed with me and I heard chuckles in the background. I threw in a wink to stir up some laughs. Once I did, he started to tremble. As I walked to the back I heard people saying, "Good job!"
"Now c-class, w-w-we will d-d-o an e-exper-ri-m-ment today. N-now, I ne-e-ed my special as-s-s-is-s-stant."
Allison McKay stood up.
"I'm all ready to help you Mr. Coopy!" Allison McKay has been the teacher's pet ever since 2nd grade. She would always stay after school and help the teacher put away some supplies. And in 6th grade she was doing horrible on her assignments. But I was eavesdropping one time and saw her talking to the math teacher. She told her that she has divorced parents and has to move a lot, so she doesn't get enough time on her homework. The teacher looked heartbroken and told her that her grades would be shot up to A's and high B's. I knew she was lying because I went to play with her the next day and both her parents were together. Her mom said that we should work on homework. We had at least 2 hours to do it, but she didn't even finish half of it, and the work wasn't even readable. But still she gets whatever she wants while acting. But now things will change.
"I'm s-s-sorry All-lis-s-son, but-t-t I was talk-k-king ab-b-bout C-c-c-cara."
Allison quickly looked at me. I glanced back. Her stare turned into an ice cold glare. I blushed and turned away.
"C-c-come on. g-g-get up-p-p-p n-n-now. You ar-r-re m-m-my sp-p-pecial helper-r-r."
I got up to help him out. Apparently we were dicepting pigs so that day was my special day passing the pigs out. Yay!
The rest of the day was like getting the royal treatment. Guys carried my books. Someone even offered to give me a piggy back ride to my next class. I was flattered by all of them, but there was in particular that flattered me the most. His name was Kyle. That one word sounded like music being played by angels.
"Hello! My name is Kyle. You're Cara Larson." I chuckled.
"Ya nice to meet you. Actually my history teacher thinks my last name is Ervington. I mean I don't blame her, 'cause Larson sounds like Ervington, right?" I wanted to slap myself in the face, that statement was so stupid.
"Uh.....ya I guess. So, I like your new look." My smile turned to a frown.
"What's wrong?"
"You're just like one of those guys that pretends to like for my looks aren't you?"
"No I'm not like those jerks. I actually liked you the first day you came to this school."
"Really?"
"Really, and I thought the freckles looked cute on you." I chuckled once again and blushed.
"Thanks!"
"Well, I'll see ya later Car."
"Car?"
"Well we are friends right?" I nodded.
"Well I guess that's my nickname for you."
"Okay, well bye Kye." He laughed and waved goodbye. I was about to run after him but it was time for History, and I had to find out more about myself. So I sighed and went to History.
*******
"Okay class, please read from page 357 to page 365 silently." Then the teacher left the classroom.
I turned to the page and started reading about myself.
I read and it said that I could move things with my mind. I made an eraser fall in the fish bowl, but no one noticed. Then I made the pages of my book flip by itself. Then I started to get crazy. I made Allison McKay say that she was a farthead. That threw in some laughs. Then I made the chalk write "Miss. Hedna (our principal) is like a balloon that's about to pop!" Then so many laughs came pouring out of the students' mouths. I turned a page in my book and it said I can make weather anywhere even in a room. So I made it snow. People started to get up and have snowball fights. Allison McKay started whining because her hair was ruined. Then Miss. Hedna came in.
"What's going on in he...." There were gasps around the room.
Miss. Hedna saw the board and got extremely mad. Then I used my power to make her slip and fall. Other teachers came in and screamed when they saw the snow. They fell too and it wasn't me. When they got up, Miss. Hedna looked furious.
"WHO DID THIS!"
"She did!" Allison pointed to me.
"YOU! FOLLOW ME! AND MARCH!" I could tell Allison enjoyed the show of the temper tantrum of Miss. Hedna over me.
I followed her and she yelled at me to get my stuff. I obeyed as I went to my locker. Pupils peeked through their classroom door to see what the screaming was about. Kyle even came out to see me.
"What happened?"
"It's a long story." I replied back to him.
"Okay, I just wanted to see if you were still alive. I don't know what I'd do if you weren't around." I felt the same way about him.
"Really?"
"Well you are like my best friend, and I like being around you. I feel comfortable around you."
"Thanks!"
"No problem. Oh and I was wanting to ask you something..."
Miss. Hedna butted in. "Could you two lovebirds get this over with?"
"Kyle tell me tomorrow. See ya!"He looked disappointed as I walked away.
********
When we went into her "lair" my dad was already there. I knew at that point there was trouble.

Weird boys

Preston (weirdest boy in my class) : "You're not superman you know!"
Seth (another weird boy in class): "RESPECT CHIEF CHEEKS!!!"

Red carpet entrance (chpt. 2)

O my gosh! I couldn't believe it! In the mirror was a person I didn't know. But it was me!
That beautiful girl in the mirror was out of of all people, me! So that means the necklace I was wearing is the same necklace Carasidel Ervington is supposed to have. But the history book said that it can only work on gods and goddesses, so that means.....I AM THE LONG LOST GODDESS, CARASIDEL ERVINGTON!!!
"AAAAAAAAAA!!" I screamed in joy knowing I wasn't pizza face any more, I was smooth-as-a-baby's-behind-face. Also that I was actually a goddess! Then I heard thunder coming up the stairs.
"Where is that punk I'll make him cry!" my dad looked terrified.
"Dad, its me."
"No its not! Who are you and why and when did you kidnap my daughter!?"
"DAD!" he lowered the baseball bat.
"Car, is that you?"
"Uh, yeah its me."
"Full name." I rolled my eyes. Whenever he looks at Max and me and we look different from last time he saw us, and we tell him its just us, he asks the same old question.
"Cara Samantha Ervington." I said without any enthusiasm.
"What the heck happened to you?!" he questioned anxiously.
I was about to tell him the whole thing but I kept it in. "Uh its a long story."
"K, but please, don't scream like that again! It scared me to death!" he answered. I nodded.
*******
Great! The last thing I needed was my brother to make breakfast! When Max makes breakfast its a recipe for disaster. When you eat his food its like a suicide meal. It literally makes you want to puke! Its like Fear Factor should hire him to make meals so the contestants could have a dare during breakfast, lunch, and dinner! The smell of "Max's Gourmet" smelled revolting. Even Dad hated it! Just because he's your son doesn't mean you have to eat everything whenever the little devil makes his own definition of food.
"Would you like some 'Max's Gourmet' Dad?" Max asked in a waiter accent.
"Of....course son! You're a great......cook!" he tried to say proudly.
"OK Dad." he said with a smile. The smile faded away after he turned to me.
"You?" he asked with the why-were-you-born-accent.
"What do you think?"
Usually he would look embarrassed after that comment but this time, he smiled and went over to his "cooking"
Suddenly, my eyes turned blood red and I could hear someone talking in an echo, almost like I heard some one's thoughts.
Dang, why does Cara look so hot, I mean I'm starting to feel grateful that she was born!
I smiled.
Should I give her the "Max Gourmet" or not. Besides she could get me a lot more attention now she looks like this.
I smiled as wide as possible and flashed my teeth. "I love this necklace!" I whispered.
Yeah, I should give it to her. She did humiliate me with her ugliness before. And on second thought, she could steal all the attention and if I make her sick with this, she can't go to school! I mean I have to admit this could get someone sick for months! Oh yes! No more Cara for months! I'm a genius aren't I? No wonder I'm popular.
I started to give him a cold glare.
He came over and handed me a barely edible mess on a plate. I started glaring at the puke on my plate. But then I smiled and didn't eat it. Usually my dad would force me to eat it and say, "You can stop eating it until you look like a model!" That offended me because I knew how ugly I was. Once I ate it, I began to swallow puke over and over again. But now things are different.
"Dad, don't you want me to eat the "Max Gourmet" Max made? Oh yeah that's right I don't have to 'cause I look like model right?" All he did was glare at his food and nodded.
"Holy Cow! You are late for school! Max! Get your car...."
"No Dad that's OK. I have my own special way of getting to school."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah I am." I turned and headed for the bathroom. I didn't want anyone to see me activating my powers. My eyes turned violet then I transported to school.

*******

Wow, my dad was right, I was late! Everyone was inside the building and the parking lot was empty. I took a deep breath and entered the building.
This time, they acted like I wasn't there. That was a good sign. I didn't want to be noticed because I would get a huge crowd and also my brother would make plans for killing me from stealing all the attention. Then I heard Lumpy's voice.
You would think Lumpy would be the most unpopular kid in the world besides me and ugliest, judging by his name, but actually he was so hot! I have to admit! He was popular! The most popular next to my brother. He also has the perfect girlfriend but most of all, he was the king of teasing.
"Hey look, Carrot came back for more." I turned around to glare at him but when he saw my face, his jaw almost fell off. Then he started asking for my number.
"So, doing anything this weekend?" I winked then walked away. Lumpy's girlfriend swatted at him.
Almost all of the cute guys there ran up to me asked me the same question over and over again: "Dong anything Friday?"
I chuckled and thought maybe I'll ignore Max. I'll steal all the attention and I won't care if he gives me a black eye. Besides, he has experienced this over 100000 times so I thought I could have the all the attention for once.
I loved having the attention. I started to imagine I was walking down the red carpet. Orlando Bloom by my side. All the flashing and autographs. But suddenly it got crowded. My eyes turned violet and I got to my locker. Then the mob came running to me. My eyes turned yellow and suddenly, the crowd froze. Not in ice, but like pausing a T.V. I got my books then walked away.
"Oh, I almost forgot." I unfroze the mob then sprinted to Science.

Connecticut

K so, we have to do state reports and I chose Connecticut. Because a friend moved there before. But I don't know much about it so if you know something please comment this post and tell me the info there.
Thanks!

The wheels on the bus go up and down all through the snow!!

Tableou

In school for history we did tableou which is a scene where you are not moving at all. We did tableous on the Alamo since we are learning about it. I was in the last team to do it so we did when the Texans capture Santa Anna. Jake was Santa Anna, Jamie and Laurel held his arms, and I got to put a tissue around his mouth. It was SUPER FUN.

Strange feeling (first chpt. of The Ruby's Power)

Have you ever had a feeling that you're something more than a regular kid with freckles and pimples? Well that's exactly how I felt three years ago.
My name is Cara.
But I had no idea that wasn't my name back then.
You'll figure out my real name later.
But right now, this is where my journey to the past begins.

*******

"Hey look, Pizza Face arrived."
I looked more like Cherry Face after that comment.
I was the new freshman girl at Wriggley Hills High school. My dad is a realtor and we have to move a lot to get to other people so he can move them. He doesn't pay much attention to me and my stupid 18 year old brother, Max. My mom died so its just Dad, Max, and me.
Well actually my brother isn't that stupid. He has already made a gazillion friends and billions of phone numbers from girls his age.
Me on the other hand, was zippo on friends and -1000 on phone numbers from boys.
"Wow the sun sure loves her. Look at all those kiss marks!!!"
I hated being called names. I just wanted to shove a knuckle sandwich down their throats but I kept walking.
Suddenly I had a feeling I was being watched. Not by the dorks but by someone else. Possibly something else. I quickly ran to my locker and headed to Science.
Mr. Coopy was my Science teacher. He was always sweating with a top button missing and messy hair. He always stutters when he talks and spits on people in the front row. Most students call him Mr. Poopy.
"W-w-e h-h-ave a n-n-new st-student to-to-today"
Some girl in the front row wiped some spit off her eye.
"H-h-her n-n-n-name is"
I interrupted.
"Cara"
"More like Car-rot!!!"
Bursts of laughter came from everywhere.
I hated that boy Lumpy. Well that's his nickname.
You wouldn't want to hear his real one.
"S-s-s-settle down-n-n!!!!" Mr. Coopy struggled.
"Y-you-u-u may-ay-ay g-go back t-t-to your s-seat, Ca-r-r-rot I mean C-c-cara."
I just nodded to hide my disgusted face from the spit on my cheek.
I heard varieties of giggles from around the classroom as I headed back to my seat.
I was only one word at that moment.
Miserable.

*******
The rest of the day dragged on. hated English, loathed Gym, and despised Math.
But most of all I absolutely, positively, hated Gym. Because Gym is where the physical teasing comes in place. That day was dodge ball and you probably know what happened. But then one subject lightened up my day. History.
The teacher wasn't nice or anything but it was what we were learning about.
Greek Mythology.
I didn't know it was my favorite till the next day.
Anyway, we were learning about the the goddess of money, wealth, and ruby's
Her name was actually Ruby.
She was almost as powerful as Zeus.
She has supernatural powers like flying, turning invisible, reading minds, etc.
But to have those powers she has to wear a very special necklace. If she doesn't have it on the powers would go away. Also The necklace can turn something ugly into something beautiful. One night when all the gods and goddesses were asleep, Palizimo, the god of darkness and night sent his evil minions to steal the necklace. His most powerful minion, Gulfok, took possession of the necklace. But Ruby was awake. She successfully took it back and Gulfok dissolved
When minions dissolve, they get sent to Earth and can never come back.
When Palizimo heard that his most powerful minion was dissolved he became furious. Ruby heard that Palizimo would come back for the necklace and stronger Ruby had to dissolve the necklace. The only way to dissolve the necklace safely was to give it to the long lost goddess Carasidel Ervington on her 15th birthday. Then would Carasidel destroy it and the world would be safe again.
All Palizimo wants is power, so if he gets the necklace, the world would be controlled by darkness and would never see light again. We would all be slaves to him if Carasidel doesn't complete her mission and uses the necklace for selfish reasons. Even if Palizimo rules the Earth and the necklace is still whole, the supernatural powers would be gone.


*******
"Cara!" my history teacher screamed.
I was too wrapped up in the history book I forgot where I was.
"Class was over 10 minutes ago. We'll learn more of this tomorrow." She tried to say sweetly.
"Perfect!!!" I said strangely happily.
"Okay, uh, see you tomorrow Miss. Ervington."
"What did you say my last name was?" I asked
She waved and left the classroom.
There was only one thing on my mind.
"Let's Google it!"



*******

When I got home I went straight to the computer.
I typed: Carasidel Ervington
I clicked on the one that said, "Long lost goddess in human form: Carasidel Ervington.
Then there were 3 knocks.
"Hey Car"
"Hi dad" He was holding a small box
"Happy 15th birthday sweetheart!!" He gave me the small box. There was a necklace with a red jewel at the end. Then I remembered the history lesson.
"15th?"
"Of course! What were you thinking silly?"
"It's beautiful. Thanks Dad."
"No problem kiddo"
"Good night, Dad."
"G-night."
I stared at the box for a long moment. then went to bed.


*******

When I woke up I slowly got my clothes on and brushed my teeth. Then I decided to show off my birthday present that day. I put it on and looked in the mirror. I blushed and looked down at the jewel. When I looked up, I saw something amazing.

Getting Started

I've just started writing this book called The Ruby's Power. And I've dedicated to one of my best friends, Ruby Barret. You can check out her blog. www.rubyreddmania.blogspot.com
