Elmond High

Chapter 1: New World Same Nuisance This is the story of a mystery that changes the life of Alma , the crazy Wildfire that burns over every school i comes in contact with, i goes to a new world, but my impulsive personality influences the world i finds myself in an not the other way around( like my father hoped), Alma is a 17 year old senior high student who’s a bit of a crazy one, i’s impulsive can be reckless and i has a sense for bad people, i gets involved in the craziest mystery ever. Alma believes in one thing and that is “ f**k it no regrets” but i meets a mystery that actually caused my to ponder. The story starts out to be a normal high school drama but it slowly opens up and the secrets of the town are revealed. Lets start with our protagonist Alma. Alma’s POV I just got thrown out of another school, the 5th this year and that brakes my all time city record . it was the first time i had been thrown of 5 schools in one city, my last record was 4 in Cantonbury, then my dad had to make me move to his sister ‘s place in Georgewill and again this is the 6th city i had been too all in the name of “ getting an education “ but i never thought i needed one, because i felt i was the smartest person in the world , but nobody saw me that way. I was always associated with trouble and my awful pranks, but i was never bothered by other people’s opinions, i only ever listened to one person and that person was buried 6 feet deep and that would be my mom, the only person that understood me. I was the only one you helped my with school and made sure i was the best in the school, my dad on the other hand was always on one business trip or the other because he was an aviation analyst and had to check out his companies airlines all over the world anyway that’s a lot of the past so lets get back to the present and that’s when something really different happens when i get kicked out of my 14th school (Probably a Guinness world record. ) My dad actually comes home this time and personally drives me to his cousin’s house in the suburbs and i thought this was very weird because my dad never takes my to a new school himself, rather he would just make some calls and have me admitted into the school and then he would call and have this long conversation about being responsible, then we would usually have an argument about how my mom would have wanted my to do better and that would immediately get me angry, because i always felt my dad was never around much even when my mom was sick and bed ridden, i blamed him for not caring and sometimes it felt like he blamed himself too, but i never pitied him because it was already too late. The other weird thing was that my dad prefers taking me to big cities not towns like this, that way he could get to my quickly when there’s an emergency(or if i get kicked out of school again) not like i plans it but sometimes it just kinda happens like last time. It was Gregory High, i was just coming back from the school gym and i told my gym teacher i didn’t want to be a cheerleader because it was so lame but the school made it mandatory to join a school sport activity, i wondered how cheerleading was even considered a sport and it was either this or chess club so i had to pick chearleading, besides i knew it was the girl’s gym teacher Miss Riley who put me in the cheerleading team, she hated my guts, probably because i always made fun of her in class and gave her attitude, there was this one time when i put a molly in her coffee (funniest history class ever) and plus she hated the way i never paid attention in her class yet i would still passed her class quite comfortably, it drove Miss Riley absolutely crazy and i loved it . A week later i was forced to join the team and that led to the most humiliating week in my life and it only got worse when 2 weeks later i was humiliated in front of the entire school by the rest of the cheerleading team who absolutely hated me probably because of Miss Riley. Alma had endured enough, i was ready to have my own pound of flesh and so i thought of sweet sweet revenge, and if there was one thing i loved it was a sweet revenge plan. So on the day of the cheerleading team's second performance right at halftime, Miss Riley always give the team some energy drinks to keep the spirits, so i sneaked into Miss Riley’s office and put mollys in all the drinks and surprisingly Miss Riley even drank one and at halftime we had to perform and it was absolutely insane. The show had begun, it was going to be a disaster, i sneaked away because i knew i wouldn’t be noticed, i sat the show out far from the team and ready to burst into laughter. They climbed on each other’s backs forming this pyramid thing we worked on all week and then Miss Riley (in a very high state, again really funny) decided to come join the show and so she climbed to the top and in 5 seconds the entire cheerleading team came crashing down. Alma and the entire school couldn’t hold the laughter, it was comedy gold but what wasn’t funny was the next morning when i heard the entire team had a combined 12 fractures and 6 dislocations so Miss Riley finally got the excuse she needed to have me expelled so she immediately put the blame on me and it was quite obvious because i was the only one not injured so it kinda pointed to me and so i was expelled. It was probably my most destructive and reckless prank but it was damn funny. I always made it a point never to have regrets and that was my motto, why think of consequences just say “ f**k it “ and do whatever you want, call me impulsive but that’s just who i was. So i and my dad arrived at Elmond after a long quiet drive, probably because my dad was disappointed as per usual but i had gone past caring. The town looked so natural and felt serene at the same time it was very fancy, i had never been in a town like this before, but i expected it to be very small and full of little buildings but Elmond was different, it was a town for the rich. I still felt the place was small and too quiet, i had always been a wildcat that needs a big jungle around me but here, it was just very calm and the kind of place that could change a wild girl (at least that’s what my dad thought) but the reality was that once a bad ass always a bad ass. We arrived at Aunt Sarah’s mansion and Aunt Sarah came outside to welcome us. The last time i saw my Aunt Sarah i was about 4 years old so i couldn’t really remember my but my dad was really happy to see her so i wore my finest smile, Aunt Sarah hugged me and immediately took me inside. The mansion was massive, we went inside and i could count at least 20 bedrooms. A maid showed me my room upstairs where i dropped my things and went down to see my father who already drove off, i wasn’t really surprised by that mostly because i knew my dad always tried the tough love thing even when he probably knows it will never get to me. Aunt Sarah showed me around the mansion, she had at least 20 maids and she had a beautiful garden at the back of the mansion, a nice pool. I found out the mansion was just recently bought and then that explained a lot because my dad’s family have always lived in the city so i was shocked to hear one of them was actually staying in a suburban town. Aunt Sarah said some family sold the mansion to her and she wanted a more quiet retirement, she was a government official but now she was retired, she was quite older than my dad and was divorced, all her children were in college. Aunt Sarah told me that she was much like me when she was younger and very wild too, she even told me stories of how she and my dad used to cause a lot of mischief in their younger days, I was surprised because that didn’t sound like the uptight father i know. I enjoyed the conversation till it got to the part were i was asked if i had a boyfriend, which as most teenagers will do i denied. It was a quite interesting chat and we went home for dinner and unpacked, i was thinking about my new life in Elmond when i fell asleep . The next day Aunt Sarah took me to school, it was Elmond High. For a school in the suburbs it was very big and had everything, i was in awe of the school’s facilities, they were top notch and the school seemed really fancy, i was still taking it all in but then i realised i would probably get kicked out on the first day if i couldn’t help myself, mischief was never too from me. Alma and Aunt Sarah met with the principal and they got all the information they needed about the school and Alma was ready to start. Aunt Sarah left and Alma was introduced to my form teacher who was Miss Roselyn. Miss Roselyn was the English teacher, she was in charge of my class and she showed me to my class and made me do an introduction to the class, so like Alma had done in all of my last 4 schools, i went all crazy and told everyone i had herpes and that i slept with all the teachers in my previous school, that lie was enough to make most people stay away from me which was the grand idea. You see that made things easier for me so when i get kicked out, There would be no attachments and i couldn’t get anyone in trouble, so i did that and got the weirdest reaction, they actually laughed, it was not the reaction i was expecting, i expected everyone to give my this judgemental looks and start calling me names but it was just laughter, what a weird school i thought. I grabbed a seat with all these people still giggling but i ignored it. I was still getting weird stares and people laughing when i walked passed but during lunch a girl walked up to my table, she was very pretty, nice red hair i thought and she looked at me with a creepy smile before she sat next to me and introduced herself, she said her name was Ella. Ella’s POV I'm Ella, I’m a cool vibrant person, very jovial nature, enthusiastic and a real sucker for love, i'm the daughter of some famous lawyers who travelled a lot because of work so they spent half the time in the town and the other half all over the country. I was always used to their busy schedules so i took advantage of it, when they were not home i would throw parties and invite my numerous boyfriends over. I was the life of the party and there was always a party when i was around, so when i walked and sat next to Alma everyone probably thought i was crazy because i'm quite the popular girl and in their opinions i wasn’t supposed to be seen with the biggest freak in school, but as much as i’m popular i'm also quite crazy too and i kinda saw something in Alma despite looking like the most pessimistic person around and total opposite of the jovial optimist that i personify. So i introduced myself to Alma (who was still surprised after her introduction speech she was so sure no one would bother her) all she could mutter was “o..k” then i told that i knew she was trying to chase people away and i also know the story was a lie, Alma was astonished, she paused for a second then introduced herself to me and we had a couple of things in common, despite Alma’s transgressions she was a very fun person and fun is exactly what i’m about so i knew we would get on really well. We spent the day talking and i showed Alma around that week and Alma started adjusting to the town slowly but i noticed by the way she talked that she had an undying desire for mischief that couldn’t be suppressed for long. Alma’s POV Me and Ella were very noticeable because we were the loudest in the class and that got everyone’s attention, the rest of the class were warming up to me, despite me still not caring. We also got the attention of the most despicable set of students you would ever come across, some people only come across these types of people once but this was a nightmare for their classmates who have been with them for many years, they were known as the untouchables, the most rotten hearted set of individuals you would ever meet, they were what you would call the typical high school bullies but bullies were usually big and physically dominant but these girls believed in emotional and mental torture, they would were intent on bringing down the little morale some of the other students had, normal bullies had limits but they were relentless and rich so they got away with it. The untouchables started noticing us but they couldn’t really inflict the same pain as they did to others, one because my and Ella’s families are also rich and two because the last time they tried hurting Ella, Ella’s parents sued all of them for emotional abuse and they got in trouble with the one people they actually answer to , their parents and that’s why the untouchables couldn’t touch Ella. But this time they finally got a reason to attack us and that was Zack the principal’s son, his father always wanted him to be the best student but he was more of an athlete, he was the school’s star player and that was enough to calm his father down, after all success is success whether its academic or Sporting success. Being the star player he was probably option number 1 for most new girls in the school. But i didn’t really think of him that way, i never get attached to people despite that i still thought a bit about how good he looks and his perfect masculine body, i put those thoughts away as quickly as possible. A few girls that have already been in the school for long and tried have all been given the same answer “No” , That was for those who were even brave enough to ask directly and those who didn’t, tried other seductive means but it still didn’t work, so some of them tagged him as gay especially after he rejected the hottest girl in school Annabelle. Annabelle’s POV I grew up in the city before my dad brought me to Elmond to stay with him and i hated the place because i felt bigger than the environment i found myself in, so when i joined the school i wasted no time asserting my dominance , i formed a group of untouchable rich kids who didn’t care about the people around them rather we wanted high school to be over as quickly as possible so we could fly to any destination of our choosing and leave the hell hole called Elmond but while we waited to graduate we decided to inflict misery and humiliation on the rest of the school, most people already feared us and secretly they would say that we were the perfect example of spoilt brats. Of course now there is a new girl and she doesn’t seem to understand that we run this school. I’m sitting with my untouchables at lunch and there she is with Ella sitting and having a good time and then i see Zack going to talk to Ella and Alma, i am immediately enraged because Zack has never needed to call anyone’s attention, he just needs to blink and people will be by his side just because he’s Zack , but this time he went to talk to a new girl, it was a miracle to some but witchcraft to me and my untouchables, they told me it was an insult to us and i knew they were right because he had never approached any of us and he even rejected me the queen bee. We weren’t going to sit and take the undermining situation anymore so rather we decided it was time to show Ella and Alma that we were still in charge. Alma’s POV The next week me and Ella started noticing a series of pranks aimed at us. First someone filled my locker with condoms and i walked right into that trap and the moment i opened it up the whole hallway was covered in condoms and the laughter was thunderous, i actually found it very impressive but i knew i was being pranked and that pissed me off so i went to class were i met Ella who tried to get up from her seat to welcome me but found the seat stuck to her ass in another hilarious prank and that confirmed my hunch that we were getting pranked but by who, we wondered. The next day i and Ella made a plan and we came to school really early we stopped at a pharmacy and bought a lot of condoms, the lady gave us a very weird look that made Ella burst into laughter, we got to school and found the untouchables sabotaging Ella’s locker and putting raw fish inside the locker. I thought of something different, we waited for them to finish and then we put all the fish in Annabelle’s locker then made whipped cream and put it all over the condoms and put it inside, so when Annabelle and my untouchables came back to school they were waiting to tape the humiliation of Ella but then the unthinkable happened and Annabelle opened her locker to find what looked like used condoms pouring out of her locker and the unholy smell of rotten fish, Annabelle stared daggers into Alma’s eyes who was just getting over the laughter, i walked right passed her with the feeling of joy knowing my revenge was complete but safe to say it wasn’t over. That Friday was gym day and it was time for basketball, they all went to change and came out for the game , the untouchables played in the other team against Alma and Ella’s team, it was probably the dirtiest basketball game you would ever see, from pushing to kicking to biting and finally it went to all out war and there was hair pulling and eye fingering till the teachers had to come separate and they were all given detention by the Principal. Silence was all around the room, it was detention and Miss Roselyn over saw it, making sure they learnt their lesson(or just texting on her phone till the detention was over). They were all still in there gym clothes and still looking like they just finished a wrestling match, Ella noticed i had a smile on my face a very sadistic smile as i was deep in thought, Ella had to interrupt my thought for fear that i was going crazy but no i had a plan, a sweet revenge plan was coming and i told Ella every detail. The whole school heard what happened and most of them were waiting outside for their gladiators to come out from their prison so they could give them a heroes welcome, and after detention was over, I and Ella ran to the girls locker room grabbed our bags and hid in a nearby classroom then we waited for the untouchables to get in the showers and then put Annabelle and her untouchable’s clothes in our bags and slammed the door as we were leaving, which attracted Annabelle’s attention and she grabbed some towels and chased after us, we ran for the school gate and waiting outside was the rest of the school, a minute later the untouchables came running out only wearing towels and the laughter sounded round the entire school. The Untouchables were horrible but Alma had a dangerous mind when it came to revenge and they knew they couldn’t handle It so they decided to let it be for now although Annabelle still had revenge in mind. Alma and Ella were suspended for a week and given detention for the rest of the term but it was worth it.
