So, you begin, anything I oughta’ know about the party tonight? Drama? Beef? Secrets?
Ayla’s eyes light up the minute your question leaves your mouth!
“Dude, you don’t know the <span class="mu-i">HALF</span> of it! Let me paint a picture for ya:” Before you can ask, the athlete frames a nonexistent shot with her fingers like a director!
“<span class="mu-s">GREENRIDGE</span> doesn’t get a lotta’ transfers, yea? So pretty much <span class="mu-i">everyone</span> knows everyone… we’ve all been together for four years, at <span class="mu-i">LEAST!</span>”
“<span class="mu-i">Lots of history…</span>” Mutters Terra, earning an appreciative smile from her pal!
“Toldja she talked!” Ayla boasts! “So anyways, this is everyone’s <span class="mu-s">LAST HURRAH</span>, okay? Including <span class="mu-s">MINA AND DARREN HAUSER!</span>”
Wires connect inside your head. Those are the two kids of the island’s owner, right?
“A-Plus, kid!” Nods Ayla! “So this one’s shapin’ up to be the <span class="mu-s">BIGGEST YET!</span> We’ve got POOLS,” she begins as she counts off the perks on her fingers, “JACUZZIS, a LAGOON THING, FULLY-STOCKED SPORT COURTS, <span class="mu-s">FRITZ’</span> band <span class="mu-s">SEPSIS</span> is gonna be playing, ooh, and don’t forget the <span class="mu-s">CHOCOLATE FOUNTAI</span>-”
“<span class="mu-i">Maybe he’s not a… sports guy…</span>” Interjects Terra in a slightly less-soft voice, deftly deflating Ayla’s ‘<span class="mu-i">flow</span>’
“... well, yea… there’s <span class="mu-i">other</span> stuff too, I guess…” She grumbles. “Anyways, the Hausers want to graduate with a bang, y’know? So this year oughta’ be the best one.”
Sounds like it’s gonna get a little <span class="mu-i">rowdy</span>, you chuckle.
“HAH! Good <span class="mu-i">luck</span>!” Scoffs Ayla as she and her friend share a knowing glance! “You’re clearly not from <span class="mu-i">our</span> school-<span class="mu-s">JAKE</span> has everything locked down with the <span class="mu-s">DISCIPLINARY COMMITTEE.</span> Dude made a <span class="mu-i">presentation</span> and everything before school ended on Friday.”
So what, you ask, aren’t they, like, students?
“Kiiiiinda?” The tomboy replies with a raised eyebrow. “They keep the school in order and all took mandatory <span class="mu-s">CQC</span> classes, right, Ter?”
“<span class="mu-i">I think they hosted a seminar on hostage interrogation too…</span>” Her friend mumbles. “<span class="mu-i">... it was on a Saturday so I didn’t go…</span>”
“But anywho, nothing to worry about, dude!” Ayla laughs as she gives your back a hearty (and somewhat painful) slap! “Just stay around the <span class="mu-s">MANSION</span> and play nice and you'll have a great time!”
“<span class="mu-i">The native fauna can be territorial too…</span>” Adds Terra with a serious expression. “<span class="mu-i">Especially at night…</span>”
“Ter’s a bit of an animal whiz.” Explains Ayla as she gives your ribs a nudge with her elbow. “But every year some kids go wandering off into the woods for some <span class="mu-i">HANKY-PANKY</span> and leave in a medical chopper… watch yourself, Crash!”
Yea, you reply as you brush off her knowing wink, you’ll uh… you’ll be careful.
“Smart man.”
