a black cat with white paws, stripes, and a white tail tip wailed at me as i opened my eyes. i was in a forest that was on fire. i tried to get up, but i couldn't. when i tried to speak, i couldn't do that either. i just watched helplessly as gatos fled a whole in a mural of gorse. the heat of the fogo becoming mais and mais realistic. suddenly i felt myself being pulled and pushed. the cat's were trying to save me! suddenly they fled as i saw myself catch on fire. i tried to scream but all of the air had been captured por the roaring flames that were consuming me. i went limp for a few segundos for the air was thin. then i gathered up all my strength and screamed as loud as i could, but it came out only as a soft yelp.
i woke up screaming and crying, pulling the covers over my head and curling up into a ball. bolinho, queque ran upstairs to see what was wrong, so i told her everything."i read something similar to that in a book." she told me softly. "do you read the Warriors series?" she asked. i shook my tear covered head no. "i don't wanna go to Skool, Cupcake. not like this." i whimpered. "I'm sorry, Master, but you're not sick or injured. I'm afraid you'll have to go to Skool today."
i picked out a black dress with grey sleeves and had my Wig bangs all hang over one side, held together por a grey barrette. i looked at myself in the mirror and began to cry. i had mixed feelings. i was having those strange earth dreams that i only seem to have on this planet, but i was finally back to the place that i belonged. i longed for my friendship with Zim to be fixed and to at least know the girl he had been playing with. i grabbed my backpack and walked downstairs, put on some Black dress shoes and White long socks, and headed off to Skool. but before i did, i sat in the spot where i said goodbye to the earth. "guess who's back, mother Earth?" i asked softly, putting a red bow on the colarinho, colar of my dress.
when i got to Skool, the first familiar face i saw was Yugi. i nodded my greeting and headed off to my locker. "Oh...My...God!" i heard a familiar voice screech. i turned around to see Sabrina! her hair was light and fluffy, but it was cut at an angle and kinda short. she also had a lock of rosa, -de-rosa hair. "CYNDER!" she screamed, giving me a big hug. "i knew you didn't die! i KNEW it!" she cried. behind her was a girl with Carmel Blond hair. i noticed they were wearing the same outfit: short Blue-Grey Skirt, Blue-Grey jacket, Black dress shoes, grey socks. they both had on sweaters, but Sabrina's was Blue and the other girls was Pink. "this is Laurana, another Pop." she introduced the girl when she finished the hug. at first she looked a bit shy, but then she seemed like a completely confident teenager.
"by the gods, Cynder, you're not going to wear THAT all day, are you?" Laurana asked me with surprise. i nodded, and she frowned. "not on my watch, Sister!" she exclaimed, grabbing my arm. the two girls grabbed there backpacks - both pitch black except the reflection of the light on the areas with Zippers - and push/pulled me into the girls Bathroom. nobody else was here and they locked the door. i began to worry about what they were gonna do, but i had little time to think about that because Laurana pulled some clothes out and gave them to me. "go in the stall and put them on. we need to see you in good clothes." she ordered.
when i was changing in the stall, i finally got a good look at the clothed. an orange, low cut T-shirt with a white Peace sign. i adjusted my bra so it wouldn't show and slipped the T on easily. wow. ok, cut WAY low. i was glad i pushed my Bra down, because it would have shown if i just slipped on the T without thinking. ok, what's next? Brown Corduroys with little gem stones sued on the pockets. they felt like Skinny Jeans mixed with sino Bottoms. now i just had to put on some Brown socks and Black tênis shoes.
i got out of the stall and the Pops nodded. "sit down, Cynder. we HAVE to do something about this hair. you've got dividido, dividir ends!" Sabrina told me. i did as i was told and waited patiently as she parted my hair and cut of the dividido, dividir ends. then she gave me a book and told me to pick a hair style. i was tempted por an EZ comb thing called the borboleta twist, but i decided on something that made it look like al you did was take some hair from one side and pull it over to the other. and that's exactly what it was!
"no for Makeup." Laurana chimed. she dabbed something on my face evenly - it felt like a mix of slime and Water that didn't burn - and put on various eyeshadow. a green one that was my exact skin tone, a cerceta, verde-azulado one this looked like bolo de copo eyes when she was hiding her sadness, and a Cyan-Blue that was basically what i would have suggested. then she put on some clear and Cyan lip gloss.
"ok, go ahead. look in the mirror." they told me together. i looked, and i couldn't tell who was looking back at me. she was Beautiful, but i didn't recognize her.
