Chapter 6- Run for Your Lives

  Life continued as it always did at R.E. Crater High. Leala settled in, coming to shcool wearing green and purple stripes- as Helga did a few years ago.
  Justin had agreed to tutor alan after school. Alan thought it was a date, and... Well Justin's first kiss was an accidental one with a guy. Mia and Tessa laughed and laughed.
  Mia tutors Alan now.
  Everything seemed peaceful one Saturday morning. Leala awoke shortly after Helga did, and came downstairs. Everything suddenly seemed slow motion. Helga was about to plug Leala's prize toaster into the wrong end of a European-North American adapter for a light socket. It connected, and... ZAP! The toaster burst into flames.
 "AtatatatatatataEEEEEEEE!!!" Leala screamed, running down and dousing the toaster with water. But, it was too late...

The Next Monday
 
  Tessa yawned. "Mehh... Mondays were never my forte" she mumbled, laying her head on her desk. Mia shook her.

  "Hey! Don't fall back to sleep!!" she cried. "Class will start soon!!"

  Helga walked into the room, wearing her usual clothing. She stepped to the side, and pointed to direct attention to Leala. The young girl walked slowly into the room, wearing a long black dress.

  "She... How you say? Depressed..." Helga said solomly.

  "What happened!?!" Tessa cried. "She looks so pale.

  "Toaster... It gone..." Helga said. "She not eat."

  Alan glanced up from the Seventeen magazine he was reading, and saw Leala's face.
  "Aww, the poor thing!" he said, getting up and giving Leala a hug.

  Leala blushed. The her face went all Leala looked happy/gerbil, and she smiled.

  Helga nudged Tessa. "She lookz... 'Appy? Maybe Alan make her eat?" she said, grinning.

  Tessa nudged Mia. "Hey, Helga thinks Alan can help Leala eat again. By the way, he's hot," she said, grinning.

  "Leala or Alan?" Mia asked, smirking. "Anyways, what would we feed her? She eats nothing but toast, and we don't have another toaster."

  "There's a toaster in the staff room," Justin said, glancing up. "Sadly, the staff room is highly guarded from both entrances by *Mr Teplesko*, and all staff-room windows are locked.

*Mr. Teplesko- the Meanest, pickiest, most watchful, teacher in the entire school. No one gets passed him, or doesn't get passed him, without paying for it.*

  "Anyone up for a little... Breakage and entering?" Tessa said, grinning devilishly.
