Whisperwood Hollow The high school life of Harmony Heart Welcome newcomers! To Whisper Hollows University. Home of the Whisperwood Owls! Join in on the many clubs here on campus! And we have a wide variety of subjects including haunting, ‘turnings’ and of coarse! –Scaring and fighting swordsmanship! ^^ By: Theres_Always_A_Bigger_Fish a.k.a Lyana Choate 9/9/2008 Chapter I, School is chalk-full of crazy. You’d think stupidity wouldn’t be contagious. Wrong. I looked out my window only to see the darkness of a thick storm cloud headed my way. Perfect. No one could track me then…. I grabbed my book bag and opened my window, looking out it to make sure no one could see my escape. I climbed down the side garden railing and made it to the side walk. Okay, Harm. Now to grab your bike and be on your way. I went into the garage quietly and grabbed my bike, --- only to hear the sound of a load of old stuff fall to the echoing, harsh ground. Uh ohh…. “Steven! I heard someone in the garage! Go check it out…†I heard my ‘mother’ say from in the house. I jumped onto my bike and speed away, just in time to hear, “It was probably just a stray cat, dear.†Good. My covers not blown… I used all the strength I had in my legs to go faster on my bike and get out of the neighborhood. When I was out of the neighborhood, I made my way towards a pawn shop and sold my bike. Okay, now I’ve got…. 207dollars and 58cents…. Perfect. I was walking down the street towards the links bus stop when I saw a Seven Eleven. I might as well… I walked into the mini mart and bought ranch corn nuts, cheddar chex mix, and a coke. “That’ll be 6.37, miss.†Said the cashier. I gave him the money, and ran to the bus stop, only making it to the bus just in time. “Long ride or short?†asked the driver. “Long sir.â€I said in return. I gave him my bus token, and sat down before putting my headphones on and thus began the 6 hour drive. “Last stop! Whisperwood, Oregon. “Yelled the bus driver. I walked out of the bus, and made my way to the nearest payphone. I dialed a number into the payphone and waited. Grandma Mollie, please pick up. “Hello?â€Asked an old lady on the other side of the phone. “Grandma! It’s me, Harmony. Can I stay over at your house for a while?†I asked eagerly. “Harmony? Oh, of course, dear. Come as soon as you can. Want me to have Edgar pick you up?†Rapidly spoke my grandmother, obviously happy to have heard the question. You see, Grandma Mollie was a novelist. A widely known novelist. AND she was married to my grandpa Joseph. He owned a large market of enterprises—in video games. (I got to make, publish, and play games I wanted to make, and play any beta-testing games.) They were cool grandparents. And I was not their only grandchild. I was just—The only grandchild that still visited them and still called them grandparents, and not “Mollieâ€andâ€Joeâ€. They were the only ones who knew about the problem with me and my—“parents†They were my foster family. Grandma and Grandpa were my REAL family. My grandparents told me to keep my contact with them a secret for when I needed “helpâ€. They, (my grandparents) were quite wealthy. Yay! X3 “Yes please Grammy. I’m on—Second and Third. Love you. ^.^†I said. “See you in about half an hour, dear. Bye†said my grandma before hanging up. Now all I have to do is wait for the car--- I didn’t even have time to finish before my grandparents black limozene pulled up. The window pulled down and I saw Edgar and… someone else?! Who in Christ’s name is he?! I stared at the young man about my age in the front with Edgar. He had dirty blond hair, hazel brown eyes, and a big ‘ol cat grin played across his face. I hate it when people smile like that. His smile disappeared as words formed across his lips. “Well? Are you going to get into the car, or are you going to have to be dragged like the dumb bell you are?†What?! “Even! Don’t speak like that towards the mistress!†Edgar yelped at the angel-faced monster. “Do not speak to me so rudely†I said, my words dripping with venom, as I got into the back large area of the car. Though the mirror, I saw his face turn pale as he realized what he had said to whom. Serves him right. On the drive over, I had made up many thoughts on some novel ideas for grandma. I know she’ll love that idea!! Believe it or not, I was not one to hold grudges, and I didn’t plan on making one. From the mirror, I noticed that he was staring at me. After our half-hour drive, my grandparent’s mansion came into view. Yes, I said a mansion. Their wealthy, remember? You can pick your mouth up off the floor now. Edgar parked the car up front, and ‘Even’ got my stuff from the back of the car. Edgar opened the door for me, and I made my way towards the front door. As I opened the door, I was trampled by my grandmother, and was caught in her death grip. (Hug ) “Harmony! It’s been so long since I’ve seen you!†squealed my grandmother. “I know grandma. But this time… is it okay if I stay with you and grandpa… for good?†I asked, growing a bit quiet. “For good? ...OF COURSE! “She yelled, hugging me once again. I made my way to my room, stopping to look at it, not having been here in about 3 months. I sat down in front of my laptop, and started writing in my virtual diary. After an hour of writing, I saved what I had written, and turned of my laptop. I heard a knock at my door. “Come in.†I stated, not really caring who came in. When I saw who it was, I put a mental sticky not that I had to see who knocked on my door before letting any one in, FROM NOW ON. “Uh… I’m sorry for talking like that to you miss..?†“Harmony.†I stated to Even. “I’m Eavion, but most people call me Even.†Spoke Even. “I forgive you, but do you talk like that to EVERYONE?†“No, I was just in a bit of a bad mood… I really don’t like having to go with my dad to pick people up.†“Edgar is your dad?!†“Yeah.†“So, do you live here with my grandma?†“Mistress Heart is your…?†“Yeah.†“She looks like she’s only in her early 30s.†“You’re of by about 15 years. My parents had me when they were, like, 16. And she had my dad when she was 17, grandpa was 20.†“And how old are you?†“16†“So your grandma’s 49?†“It’s rude to ask a women’s age.†“Sorry.†He left the room, giving me the freedom to turn on my iPod, plug it into my stereo, and start dancing to Hamster Dance . I heard laughing as I saw my “big brother†Jeremy walk into the room. “Nii-san!†I shouted as I tackle hugged him. He pried me off of him, and started dancing with me. When the song ended, I tried to press replay, while he grabbed me and spun me in the air. “Hey! Put me down, Jer! “I squealed. Jeremy was my childhood friend from here in whisperwood. We went to elementary and middle school together. Of course he was always 1 year ahead of me, I had skipped 1 grade. Jeremy was 18, 2 years older than me. He was like an older brother because he always watched out for me. He and my grandparents helped me when… my parents suddenly died. They were “killed in a crashâ€. Well, I don’t believe that… I know better… They were killed. And I was their 2nd born. I have a twin sister, and a little sister. But they… were adopted by a different family. I still keep in touch with them… But not often enough. As I was saying, Jeremy had roasted chesnut hair, (a brown with a hint of autumn red.) forest green eyes, he was only about 3 inches taller than me, an exotic/enthusiastic smile, and he was a bit childish. But… there was something about him that had changed since I had last seen him. (Which was about… 3 years ago in person? I texted and e-mailed him a bit, but I haven’t seen him in a while.) As Jeremy put me down, I noticed that he got taller. “Jeremy! You cheater stop growing taller!†I snapped in a fake annoyed tone. “Well, grow up! Stop being 16 and skip an age!†He fake snapped back. “I missed you…â€I said, getting a bit serious. “I missed you too…†Jeremy said in return. “So, are you going to school here?â€Jeremy asked, changing the subject. “I guess…What school is it?†“Whispering Hollow University.†“So it’s a collage?†“No, it’s a collage and a high school.†Jeremy replied. “Oh. It sounds… interesting.†With that, Jeremy ran over to my laptop, turned it on, and started fiddling with it. “Um, Jer? What are you doing?†I asked, giving him a weird look. “Enrolling you in school. What’s your full name?†“Harmony Harper Chrysanthemum Christlynn Heart…†“And your full birth date?†“October 31st 1992.†“There! All done! Now you can go with me to school tomorrow.†“…Just like that?†I asked, unsure. “Yep. Just like that.†He said, getting up and leaving. “Now, I believe you have to bathe, Miss Harmony.†He said, putting on one of his silly grins, and leaving the room. I grabbed some of my pajamas and ran into the master bath. When I was done bathing, and getting dressed, I took a look at myself in the mirror. My longish-length brown hair, (kind of like an ashy color) lay limp across my face, as I looked at my reflection. I had interesting, light hazel eyes, and fair colored skin. I was a bit skinny (a perfect size quite incomparable ) and I was a medium height girl. Only about 5’2â€. I didn’t think I was gorgeous, but I thought I was pretty. Back when I was little, everyone called me “Charmy Bee†It was because of my honey-ash colored hair. I was also the shortest kid in my class. When I was done examining myself in the mirror, I shut off the lights in my bedroom, and listened to the sound of rain softly pitter patter against the roof, drifting me off to sleep. In the morning, I awoke to the sound of someone playing “Cartoon Heroes†on full blast. “Five more minutes…†I mumbled, attempting to steal a few more peaceful moments of sleep. “We are the cartoon heroes! Oo-oh-o! We are the ones that gonna last forever!†Sang a very loud Jeremy. “Silence Jeremy!†I yelled, now fully awake. Without warning, a school outfit was shoved into my face, and I was thrown into my walk-in closet. Well, THAT was a nice wake-up routine. “So this is my school uniform? Pretty nice.†I said as I put on the delicate outfit. “Done yet?†half-screamed Jeremy, obviously quite impatient. “Yeah, Jer. But do I HAVE to go to school today?†I half-screamed back, a bit annoyed. “Yes.†Jeremy said in reply, as I was yet again dragged away. Jeremy handed me a book bag (that had all the school supplies needed) and I was stuffed into his car. When we arrived at school, (Whisper hollow University) Jeremy parked, grabbed my hand and led me away to my first class. The class we arrived in was homeroom. “ Mr. Deadwood! Please take your seat!†instructed a teacher. “And I’m guessing you’re our new student from Maplewood?†“Yes mam.†I said, not wanting to stick out. “Well, introduce yourself.†Continued the teacher. “Um…Hi. I’m Harmony Harper Heart.â€I said, not knowing what else to say. “Well, I’m pleased to meet you. I’m Ms. Celestial. Harmony, would you please sit in-between Mr. Eavion Nightcrawler, and Mr. Vague Nightly please?†“Yes mam.†I said as I made my way towards—“Wait…could someone please tell me where they’re sitting?†I asked, a bit confused. The two boys who were called raised their hands. Oh god. I have to sit next to Even?! *sigh* Life is so unfair… I walked through the maze of students and made my way towards my seat. After class was over, I got from my seat only to be pushed back into it by a group of squealing girls. Fangirls. But…for whom?? I looked more in depth . “ Eavion!! †screamed the group of Fangirls. You’d think I was in an alternate dimension. No way in God’s name. And once again, more Fangirls, WHOM CAME OUT OF NO WHERE, attacked the spot I was sitting at and a menacing, “VAGUE~! â€Could be heard throughout the room. This is going to be an interesting year. DEFINETLY. Out the corner of my eye, I saw Jeremy waving at me. Wait! Jeremy’s in this class?! And once again, more Fangirls…… “Quick! Follow me!†I heard someone whisper as a hand grabbed mine and I was dragged out of the room. “Whoa! I need that arm if ya don’t mind!†I shouted, while attempting to keep my arm in its socket. “Sorry! I really wanted to get away from that man-eating group of Fangirls, and you were almost trampled.†Said the boy that had dragged me. “So I’m guessing your ‘Vague’ right?†I asked, taking my hand from his. “Yeah. I am.†He said, reluctantly. ….is he…blushing?!! “Sorry about that…. ^^’ “ he said, holding the back of his head, with rosy cheeks. Is this guy for real?! Dude! Is there something on my face or what?! “Harm! There you are!†Jeremy said as he ran up to us, breathless. “Where’d you go?!†“Mr. Popular kiddy-napped me…. T_T†I said, putting on my cutest face. Then I noticed…why are all the boys staring at me?..... Chya, talk about CrEePy…. “Who’s that cute little one over there?†I heard one of the boys say to one of his comrades. Cute…little…. Now I KNOW they aren’t talking about me….. While I was being dragged away from the scary group of boys, I looked back at Vague. He had dark hair, black I believe, and blackish colored eyes, fair colored skin, and he was still looking at me . Wait?! He’s still looking at me. Now I finally understood why every guy on campus was staring at me. I was in a school mixed in with boys. Growing boys. Boys with raging hormones. Now I am officially scared… School this year is just going to be WONDERFUL. D:< Chapter II A whole new kind of crazy. BBBBBRRRRRIIIIIINNNNGGGG!!! Went the school bell. “Oh thank you dear God!†I said, running out of yet another one of my newly acquired classes full of fanboys, when I was suddenly grabbed by a group of girls. ‘Why me, dear God? I’ll never eat the last of the ice cream, or bump into someone without saying excuse me ever again! I swear! ‘ I silently pleaded in my head. “Okay!â€Said someone whom I assumed was in charge said. “What’s your relationship with Jeremy, Evi, and our precious Vague?!†she said, giving me a death-glare that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. “Okay….Jeremy and I are childhood-friends, ‘Evi’s’ father works for my grandmother, and Vague just sits next to me in class….now…um…can I go home now…?†I said, a little scared.â€Oh…that’s all? Okay then. But this is a warning. They-are-ours. Back off if you know what’s good for you.†She said, as they untied me and I was set free. Well that was…scary terrifying the scariest thing to happen to anyone in their high school year. I wandered in a half-daze to the main entrance, when I was bumped into by Even, who was running away from Fangirls like a cat would run away from water. “Hey! Watch it—‘Evi’!†I said, giggling a little at the last part. Even turned around as soon as I said ‘Evi’. “That’s not my name.†he said, getting kind of scary. “Eek! Evi-kun is scary!â€I said, running and hiding behind the first random stranger that I happened to come by. Big mistake. When I looked to see who it was I was hiding behind, I found it to be Vague. “Opps! Sorry Vague-san! I’m trying to escape death via Evi!†I said, letting go of him and giggling. Then he did something unexpected. He turned around and hugged me. “Uh-oh†I said as I suddenly sensed the menacing auras of a large group of VERY angry Fangirls. “Hmm…? What’s wrong Harmony?†he said as he turned around and noticed the group, giving me the scariest death-glares possible. He then turned back, grabbed my hand, and made yet another run for it. “Why do they keep chasing me?†Vague said, out of breath. “Um…shouldn’t you know that? They’re Fangirls. That’s what they do.†I said, not believing that he seriously didn’t know why. “They’ve been following me around the 3 weeks that I’ve been here.†“So you’re new like me! That’s a relief! Well, I’m not entirely new. I used to live here until I was about 7.†I said, ultimately stopping myself realizing that I said too much. “Sorry about that…†I mumbled, getting a bit flustered. “For what? You were only speaking your mind.†He said, yet again, blushing. “Well, I have to go home so… see you tomorrow.†I said as I ran to the parking lot.â€She’s so…wow.†Said Vague as he stared at Harmony speeding to the parking lot. “You’re late…†Said Jeremy as he sat in his car with a bored look upon his face. “Fangirls—are—evil…â€I said, out of breath, jumping into the car. “That’s what I think too†said Jeremy, with a ‘flash back’ look on his face. When we arrived back home, I was “greeted†by “Evi†giving me the evils. “Meep!†was the sound I made as I ultimately hid behind Jeremy. “Now, what was that, ‘Charmy’?†Even said as he wrapped me into a hug. “Hey! Let go!†I said, blushing at the fact that he used my nickname. “No way ‘Charmy’.†Yet again, he used my nickname. O.o “Stop calling me Charmy or I won’t stop calling you ‘Evi’!†I yelped, trying to free myself. “Deal.†He said, letting me go. Then, unexpectedly, Jeremy grabbed me, pulled me to his chest and said, “Don’t touch her, Nightcrawler.†Whoa, talk about touchy-feely! All he did was be mean… Go big brother! Jeremy V.s Even, Cool! Are they gonna fight?! …I wonder if I can get another hug…. Even didn’t take that challenge….â€Sorry…Won’t happen again. Are you guys gonna come to that house-warming party a few guys were talking about earlier?†asked Even, changing the subject. “Yeah. Harmony, you wanna come?†Jeremy said, putting a smile on his face. “Yesh. I’ll go change.†I said running up stairs. This is what I changed into: A white dress, with lace at the bottom, and some white flats, my hair put up in two ponytails. I look so cute! ^ . ^ “Whoa…†came from the mouths’ of the two boys at the bottom of the stairs. We drove out to the house that had the said house-warming party. It had a large white marble balcony, and a white swing hung on a dog-wood tree. Wow… I noticed a boy about my age sitting by him-self on the swing. “You okay?†I questioned, sitting next to him. He looked at me a bit shocked. “Why are you sitting with me…?†he asked, with a look of disbelief. “Because you look sad, and why shouldn’t I sit with you?†I said, starting to swing my legs. “Because I’m second best compared to my twin brother. Wouldn’t you rather sit with him, like everyone else?!†he replied, bitter. “Well, who’s your twin brother? Aren’t you two supposed to be… identical?†I asked, looking around… “Him…†he said pointing to … Vague?! Was…Vague walking over here…? He looked a bit mad… name…?â€I asked the boy, putting all of my eye-contact onto him. He blushed and said, “Distant.†Was their mom spacey or something?! … Nice names anyways… “I’m Harmony.†I said, smiling. I noticed he was looking down. “Hello Vague…†Distant said, growing quiet. Vague sat down next to me, and started to swing his legs, looking down. “So you guys are twins? That’s cool… I have a twin as well.†I said, trying to even out the awkward silence. They both looked up. “You do…?†Vague said, giving me his undivided attention. “Yes. Her name is Melody Mello Heart. I also have a little sister named Delilah Dream Heart.†“You have more than one sibling?†asked Distant. “Yes. I have 7 younger siblings, but my twin Mello is older than me.†I explained. Vague and Distant stared at for me a second, and then said, “You don’t know much about Whisperwood, do you…?†“Well…no. I lived here for 5 years before moving away.†“So you haven’t heard the rumors…?†“What rumors?†I said, getting excited. “Well… you’ll find out soon enough.†Aww… now I REALLY want to know……. “Distant! Vague! Come inside!†said a very young-looking woman. She couldn’t have been older than her early twenties. “Oh! Bring your friend inside too!†she said, looking at me, smiling. We walked into the house, into what looked like the largest living room in the WORLD. Woah. YOU DON'T POST; i DONT WRITE!!

okie! abit more!!! I pondered at what was said on the swing... rumors....maybe I should ask Jeremy about this? I walked around the house, looking for him. 'Hmmm... can't seem to find him.... where could he be?' I noticed I had walked into a bedroom by accident. Whoops. I noticed there was a balcony. I ran to it, opened it up, and looked down. Jeremy was down stairs, on the front lawn, probaly waiting for me. I heard someone clear their throat. I turned around. "Whoops! I'm sorry, am I in a room I shouldn't be?" I said, a bit rapidly. "No, its no problem. I'm just wondering what you'd be doing in my room, Harmony." I heard the voice mumble. Someone turned on the light. "Oh! Hi Vague! I was scared it might be someone I didn'twant to see...." "Hmm? Like who?" Vague said, patting a spot next to him on the bed. I sat down. "Hmm...I guess, Even..." I said. "Why's that?" "He's got a bit of an attitude....." I mumbled. "Well, if you never need 'help' escaping 'Evi's' grasp, you can always hide behind me. :D" I saw him slightly blush as he said this. No more for now! :D You gots to wait! xD
