Two For the Price of One
It was like I was playing a video game. There was this girl an a boy, obviously dating, sorta geeky. Either I watched them or I was the girl. We went to a school assembly where they filled the gym with water and there were fish everywhere. The fish were really cool to look at, but they kept coming too close to me and they would freak me out. Lily, as a practical joke, took one of the fish and put it down my pants. I flipped. It was after school hours, and perhaps the couple had stayed after for extra studying. You see them walking out into the front hall, and the school gives the impression of a cathedrel. Suddenly big doors open, and a teacher crawls through, head bloody and battered. Two girls appear behind him, grinning nastily with pipes in their hands. They smash the teacher to death while the couple watches horrified. Sirens are heard, and the two girls run away while the couple stands in shock. The boy comes to his sense and turns to his girlfriend. “Look, we’ve got to get out of here! They’re going to think we did it!” So they begin to run. The cops come and examin the body, then notice the two figured running away in the distance. They decided the people running are the murderers, and begin the chase. Now I’m the girl again. We’re running through a field, but it isn’t a field. It’s generally dusty white, and there are pictures on the path. I recognize one of the picture as something Lee Lee would draw, and stop to look. The boy pulls me along reminding me of why we are running. As we run down this field, I come to the conclusion it’s like the recent uploads page of VCL. We finally make it out of the web page and to a traffic light. And then…
I wake up scared out of my mind. But it’s early, so back to sleep.
I’m in a shopping mall. I wander into one of those mainstream stores and look about, like I always do. That’s when I find the corset. It’s light tan and very nice, but I know I want a black one. I search about the store, and every time I do it seems that different and more clothes appear. I finally find a black one, but it’s too big for me. I continue looking about the store and I see they’re selling UFO pants. I want a black pair. I look further and see they’re selling all sorts of cute shirts, including this really cool shirt with a sort of skeleton mouse thing that trails down the sleaves. I go to find my mom. I find her and we pick out a bunch of stuff, mostly underware though. I want more, but I don’t want to waste my mother’s money. The lady gives me all sorts of extra stuff, like a new age tamogatchi. Leonard hovers over my shoulder to watch me play with it. Then my mom and I leave the store and walk through the mall, having a conversation about how I need a job.
