Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
Brilliant green leaves spreading overhead frame the sky as you walk home from school. Suddenly, a cool breeze tickles the back of your neck. You spin around, but no one’s there. However, when you look closer, a coiled-up leaf is fluttering on the ground in front of you. You reach down an pick it up, hesitantly unrolling it.
Etched in thick golden ink are the words “Hello, my dear CBer! You have been invited to a trip to the Amazon rainforest! Whether hiking to a mysterious waterfall or ziplining over the lush canopy, this is trip is one you won’t be soon to forget. This wonderful trip begins very soon, so pack your bags and get ready. Of course, all CAPTCHAS and AEs are welcome.
We are not responsible for any assassinations, murders, or inexplicable disappearances of any kind.”
Your heart begins to pound with excitement. You dash off to pack, not noticing the iridescent red feather tucked in your pocket, or the shimmering rainbow-colored bird vanishing into the clouds.

Alright, super-sorry for the inconvenience, but I'm taking a trip from Sunday-Thursday where I can't write at all. I promise there'll be a new day on Friday! See y'all soon!

Explorer, are you Abigail S.?

No to both!

I thought you were on a trip!
(June 6, 2016 - 3:43 pm)
I am! I'll explain. Currently I'm writing this on a phone, and it's very hard to write long, detailed sections on a phone. Sorry if there were any misunderstandings!

Finally! A new day!

Day Two
Lemon Banana stared out of the window, gazing into the clouds. Heaving a sigh, she stretched and turned to the aisle. The group had been in the air for almost an hour, and she was beginning to get bored. She glanced over at Valerie, who was sitting in the seat beside her, and swiped her book Entire Works of Shakespeare from her when she wasn't looking and began to read.
All over the plane, cheerful banter was ringing out, and Vikki, Mei, and the Novelist had even begun playing a round of cards as Nova sat by, disapproving of such 'human' and 'emotional' games.
But in the midst of these joyous thoughts, one dark one was beginning to blossom. The murderer sucked in a breath, waiting for the right moment to strike. Ahead, Lemon Banana continued reading. In fact, she was so caught up in Macbeth she barely noticed the trembling beneath her seat.
Until it was too late.
All the passengers turned around as a shriek resounded through the seats. Valerie cried out and lunged for her CBer, but her hands closed on thin air. Lemon Banana's seat has been jaggedly cut out from beneath her, and it was the CBers could do but see her vanish into the sky below.
R.I.C., Lemon Banana. Rest in Clouds.

I'm blaming it on Shakespere. It's considered bad luck to say the name of the play she was reading. People refer to it as "The Scottish Play." It's all Shakespere's fault. Everyone blame it on him.
R.I.C. Lemon Banana. I hope you enjoy your ghostliness.
