CHAPTER 9

----------------------------------

After 10 minutes of the following:

-Getting lost somehow over and over

-Luna and Rosie arguing on which way to go

-Small chat with Chloe about Pokemon


We made it to the skating rink. Luckilly there were only 3 or 4 people in it.

Rosie paid for a skate rental. (She must be rich.) We put on our skates and wobbled over to the rink, balancing on the tiny blade things. When I got on the ice, I slipped and grabbed the railing. Chloe skated to me.

“Um, do you need help?” she asked.

“That would be great, thanks…” I said, trying to push  myself onto the railing. Chloe pulled my arm. When I finally got up, she grabbed my wrist and slowly skated around the edge of the ice. I used the rail as support. This rail is great.

“So, um, Chloe…” I said.

“Yea?”

“Ive been wanting to tell you something…” I hesitate.

Just then, a kid slipped and started wailing. Literally the loudest thing ever.

“I’ll tell you later actually!” I yelled.

Chloe nodded.

Rosie, Luna, and Jada skated over. Well, Jada sort of hovered.

“I did nothing!’ said Rosie.

“We should go.” said Luna. “I’ll explain later.”



After we got our skates and stuff off, we walked around for a minute.

“What now?” I asked.

“Well… Rosie thought out loud. “We could grab a bite.”

“We just ate, like 20 minutes ago.” said Chloe.

“24 minutes and 57 seconds” corrected Jada.

“Well I like food.” said Rosie. “Whatever. Lets do something fun!”

“We could go shopping,” said Chloe.

“I’m the only one with money.” said Rosie. “We could get ice cre-”

“Rosie!” yelled Luna. “How about a movie.

“Yay, food!” said Rosie. Luna facepalmed.

“Fine, but today is the last day, We have to be in decent shape for our trip.” I cringed at the thought of the ‘trip’.

Rosie and Luna both wanted to see this horror movie about a guy who had really weird creepy puppet creatures that haunted jim or something. Luna gave us her mini ipod thing so we could do an audiobook or music or whatever. Turns out, chloe has several things in common with me:

-We both like the beatles

-we both hate horror movies

-we like pokemon. (I dont believe how many she caught.)


Even with our earbuds in, the movie was pretty creepy without the sound. Every time there was a jumpscare, chloe would nearly fly out of her seat5 and shake the ipod everywhere.not to say I wasnt scared though. One part scared me so bad that I let a really little-girl-like sound come out of my mouth,

The movie was really long. Like two and a half hours. When it finished, we had gone through Lunas whole music library. As we were leaving, Rosie let out a giant burp.

“Well, that was fun!” she said. I got more food, and got to hear Alex scream like a girl!” I felt my face get kind of hot.

“I am going to have nightmares about that for the next two years.” I grumbled.

“What, the movie or your earbleeding scream?” laughed rosie.

“Id rather watch it all over again than go on the mission,” said Chloe. I let out a long moan. Everyone looked at me.

“Are you okay?” asked Chloe

“Are your insides dropping out of your butt?” asked Rosie.

“I forgot our mission is tomorrow.” I said.

“Oh, yeah.” said Rosie. “Well, its almost nine, we should be heading back. Sleep while we can.”
