Boarded Away From My Life by StarinaMist609 (best book club books of all time .txt) 📕

Lessons started a few days later. I thought it would be like a vampire freak show, but luckily it was like my old classroom - paper aeroplanes thrown everywhere, laughing and gossiping. A group of vampire girls invited me to come and chat.

'Hey, are you Heidi Black?'
'Uhh, yeah.'
'Cool! You're from New York, right?'
'Yeah.'
'Oooh! I'm from California. I was born a vampire, and when I went to my primary school, I everyone stared at me like I was a curiosity in a freak show!' one girl said.
Other girls were from Paris, Japan, Washington D.C, and even Africa! They were all really kind, and I wasn't looked at like I was a freak.

The teachers were kind, and at any point when I felt thirsty, they let me go and get a Dr Pepper, along with a few other of the girls who I was talking to. Apparently, they didn't drink a lot of blood. They perferred Dr Pepper and Fanta. Heh, no worries on those girls.

But no fear if I did get bitten! Celise (the girl from California) said we were allowed out to suck human blood. The humans don't become vampires, but they feel weaker in the morning. Teachers, here I come...

I thought.

BRIIIING! The bell went for end of day hours later. Celise and the girls came in for a beauty night while listening to the latest pop CD's on my iPod docking station. We painted each other's nails all colours of the rainbow and stuck nail art stickers on them. Celise brought a whole box of nail polishes(!), and I had my entire beauty bag of nail polish.

That night, Celise and the girls stayed in my room overnight. They had sleeping bags and popcorn as we all watched Twilight: Eclipse

, that Cat brought, although I had it. We all thought that Edward was so dreamy!
Katie, the girl from Washington D.C, brought over the entire 23rd season boxset of The Simpsons

, so we decided to watch a few. Another girl called Kiera joined us then, and became one of us. We laughed our way through three episodes until we got tired and went to bed.

'Best night ever!' Kiera whispered to us.
'I know.' I replied. 'Maybe we should do this every Friday night.'

Everybody agreed with my choice.

Every week continued as normal - Monday on my Mac, Tuesday at the Library, Wednesday chatting with Daniel, Thursday chatting to the gang on Skype, Friday beauty and movie night with the girls, Saturday shopping in a 'Black Night Students Only' town with the girls and Sunday on my Mac. Busy, heh?

I had to fit all that in with lessons, which was tiring. On the Friday nights, Katie brought over her The Simpsons

boxsets. We laughed our way through loads and loads.

But, what we didn't know, was that Cat was leaving us.

She told us all one Friday before we started watching The Simpsons

.
'Guys, I have some very bad news for you.'
'What is it, Kitty Cat?' Katie asked.
'Well, another league of vampires, Nylosea, is going to capture me on my midnight walk in the forest tonight, and sacrifice me to the head Nylosea - Nyretica. I am going to be put to sleep.'
'WHAAAT?!' Celise screamed. 'Oh, Cat, you were my best freind since primary school and now...' Celise started sobbing - the kind of sob where you just don't want to live anymore.
'They found me yesterday. Nyretica forced me to come otherwise I will be hunted down and killed. They are half-werewolf too, so they can transform into a wolf whenever they want.

'When I am put to sleep, I'm not dead, I'm just in a very, very deep sleep which can only be broken by the juice of a Twilight Rose and the sap of a Magic Tree. That's basically pinapple juice with the nectar of a rose.' she said, sniggering at the juice part.

We had to enjoy our night and then watch Cat go. Celise then started to sob and added a charm to HER big event charm bracelet. She winked as she added it. She knew I had one. I tried to cheer her up with cream soda and a Mars bar (her favourites) but she still couldn't get over it. She was like Sandra - never cheering up for hours if her bestie left.

'SQUEEAK!' Katie squealed. 'We can watch Cat from your window, Heidi!'
Everyone suddenly sprinted to the window. There was Cat, alone in a clearing. She looked nervous. Then, out of the shadows, six pairs of eyes appeared. They stepped forward to reveal Nylosea vampires. In the middle, was this tall, black haired, tanned girl who wore a lot of black - Nyretica. She arose her hands and a tree rose out of the ground, near poor Cat.
'Step forward,' Nyretica said in a smooth, silky voice, 'into the moonlight.'
Cat stepped forward. Nyretica signalled for the other Nylosea vampires to stand back. She picked a flower and bit Cat, placing the flower in Cat's hand. Poor, poor Cat refused to resist. She fell to the tree, and ivy wrapped round her.

She had been put to sleep. Nyretica was after us next.

I felt horrorfied. Cat, a teenage Lyxa, fell for the powers of a Nylosea teenager. That meant one of the other girls were next.
I checked the moon while I was at the window. A quarter moon. That meant I was running out of time to choose my destiny.

'Heidi, we're going to our room. Meet us outside room 502 at 10:30am for shopping! Bye!' Katie called as she left the room with the girls. I was alone. I turned off my TV, but then I heard a knock.
'Who's there?' I asked.
'Daniel. Can I come in?'
'Yeah, sure, just watch out - Nylosea are around the clearing.'
'Close your curtains!' Daniel cried as he came in. I did, secretly sticking my tongue out at the Nylosea freaks.

Daniel came and sat on my bed. He grinned and took out a bag from his pocket. I thought there were peppermints inside, but then Daniel pulled out a black, marble-like ball.
'This is a seeing stone,' he whispered, 'a special stone in which you can see into the past, present and future. You can see back to the dinosaurs and way past when aliens invade.'
'Cool!' I cried. 'Little green people?'
'You're such a caution.' Daniel sniggered.
'Anyway, you just ask it ive a question, or give it a date, and it will give you an answer.'
'Woah...' I whispered. Then, Daniel put the seeing stone in my hands.
'For you,' he whispered, and then he kissed me. Then, he walked out of the room.

When he'd gone, I whispered 'Who will be captured by the Nylosea next?'.
The seeing stone sparkled, turned a dark purple colour, and then showed a face.
'No! It can't be!' I gasped. The face was mine. Then, the face faded back to black.

The next day, I met the girls outside room 502, as said. We then got the bus to town. I still hadn't forgotten last night, but now, I was on the run. I felt so paranoid. The girls seemed happy, except for Celise.
'Girls, Daniel gave me a seeing stone last night!' I whispered.
'Lucky! You can see real dinosaurs with that!'
'Yeah, but it said I'm the Nylosea's next target.' I said.
The girls gasped in horror snd started to look extremely worried.

We still had a nice time in town! We forgot about our worries and shopped freely with our Black Night Academy complimentary credit cards (which had been topped with £50,000 as a welcoming gift).
We went to a Vamp Girl - a new DESIGNER clothes shop for vampire girls. I bought a lot of stuff there, including my own pair of red high heels! Also, we went to the Apple store. Celise treated herself with an iPhone with a load of iTunes money while I got lots of iTunes and App Store money on my iPod.

After hours of shopping, we went to 'Treats' - a new resturant, which is like McDonald's, only more modern and gorgeous - for lunch. We had a cheeseburger meal and a coffee.
'So, what apps have you got, Celise?'
'I've got loads, even an app maker!'
Then, we just chatted about random stuff and went home on the bus.

That night, I was looking out of my window when Daniel came in and whispered in my ear.
'A half-moon, one month to go...'

RIIIIIIIIINGG!!! RIIIIIIIIINGG!!!
