007

“That’s a really big fire.”

Mr. Harrison droned on and Kit just couldn’t pay attention. She felt so distracted today. She stared out the window and just zoned out. Suddenly she stood up and knocked her books to the ground.
“Kit Thompson!” yelled Mr. Harrison but she paid no attention. Her eyes were blank as she stared out the window.
“It’s time,” said Kit, “That smell.” She turned and opened the window.
“Kit, you psycho!” yelled Kara, “Shut that window, it’s freezing.”
“That smell,” said Sarah and she too stood up. They both jumped out the window.
“KIT!” yelled Kent. Kit grabbed Sarah’s hand and ran out into the grass. Then it began to snow. For what seemed like no reason they began to dance. When Kent asked her about it later all she said was: “I just love the snow and that first snow smell.”

“It’s a plan in progress.”

“Kit was trying desperately to stay conscious. She was battling a foe truly worthy of her strength, power and mind. She was not sure that she could win this time; she could barely keep her head up. It was time for the crushing the blow. She readied herself for-,” said Kit and she raised her arms like she was in a fight.
“Miss Thompson,” said Mr. Bennett, her Chemistry teacher, “Please stop telling stories in my classroom.”
“I am not telling a story, Mr. Bennett,” said Kit, “I’m narrating my life.”
“Narrating?” asked Mr. Bennett.
“Yeah,” said Kit, “Chemistry, the ultimate enemy. No mortal can stay awake while any teacher, especially Mr. Bennett, drowns on about the worst subject in the universe in a monotonous tone.”

“I hate to say ‘I told you so’ but-.”
“Well if you hate it don’t say it.”
“I TOLD YOU SO! They’re evil!”
“You say everything’s evil.”
“And I’m always right.”

“Out of sight, out of mind.”

“Everybody has demons,” said Kit, “Mine just happened to have the corporeal bodies, the super powers, the vendettas and the evil end of the world plans.”

“It’s not illegal until you get caught.”

“Scream, run, hide is a very legitimate plan.”

“When it was all said and done I learned one thing. There is no such thing as a happily ever after and only for the lucky is there even an after.”
