Hey Chatterboxers! I
Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
Hey Chatterboxers! I
Hey Chatterboxers! I haven't been on Cricket in a while. Some of you might remember me. So since I just got back I've decided to make a new RP! Ok, so it's like an academy for 'special' kids. For example empaths, or people with super reflexes. Basicaly low key super powers. Ya it's kinda corny, but it's fun! So yeah.
Here's my charrie:
Name- Laura Anderson
Physical Description- average height, long strait black hair, sharp blue eyes, tan
Personality- nice, funny, easily excited
powers: empath (can read other people's emotions), and can sometimes control other people's emotions too
Ok, so, the whole thing is the school is trying to turn these kids with special abilities into living weapons.
Laura-
I stared at the wall of my room with the speakers on full blast. I wasn't exactly sure what song was playing. I usually ignored the lyrics. Suddenly my mom banged on the door. "Laura! Someone's here to see you!" I shut off the speakers and opened the door. "Who?" "Just come and see for yourself." While my mom just walked down the staris I slid down the hand rail and jumped down at the bottom. A tall woman with short cropped hair and sunglasses in a suit waited at the door. "Who are you?" I asked. She seemed to glare right through me with those dark sunglasses, like she was testing me or something. "I am Miss Russo of the Academy for Special Children." I glanced at my mom. "What, am I mental or something?" My mom rolled her eyes and sighed. "Of course not Laura! Miss Russo's just talking about, your, uh, unique abilities." "Oh gosh. You mean?" "Yes." "Great. Ok so what's the plan? Take me to a government facility and do tests on me?" I asked Miss Russo. "No. You're not that special." "Gee, thanks." "Go on Laura, you'll be able to learn how to control it." "Yeah ok, whatever." That's when I packed my bags and headed off to the Academy in a dark limosene with blacked-out windows.

Yep, I am back and most certainly remember you. I just finished reading the thread and it's really quite interesting.
NAME, can I join?
(March 26, 2012 - 6:14 pm)
Of course you can join Lizzy. Weren't you Elizabeth D. before? Because I haven't been here in a while and I think that's what you were called.
(March 26, 2012 - 7:35 pm)
Yes, she was Eizabeth D. before, but there're actually quite a few Elizabeths so she changed it to Lizzy.
(March 27, 2012 - 8:37 am)
Yes I was Elizabeth D., but I changed my name before I stopped getting on.
Okay, so can I be another student who sort of joins up with you?
Name: Gail Peters

Lipa-
I got up and quietly walked to the bathroom. I get ready to go to class in 10 minutes flat. "Ok, so we give ourselves a week?" Quinn confirmed. I nodded. "Yes for one week we just watch them all. Suddenly Miss Russo walked into the room; everyone but me stiffened. "You 8, come with me." "Why?" Nyota asked. She didn't trust Miss Russo, therefore she questioned her. But I had learned never to question your orders. "Because you must be prepped for your first mission." Everyone but me stared open-mouthed at her. I was used to missions. Obviously they weren't. Then I remembered the plan. A week of observation. That plan was officialy dead, what now? "What do you mean, first mission?" Laura asked. "I mean, you have to be prepared to go on you first mission. But first, the mission briefing." We followed her cautiously. She led us into a large white room that I'd passed when I broke in. It was all white tile, but the floor shimmered, like it was wet. There were three objects in the room. A computer on a desk with a printer in the center of the room. High on the walls there were windows. And security cameras. I couldn't see any lights though. The room was completely illuminated with artificial light and yet there were no lights in the room. Miss Russo walked to the computer and pressed the power button. Automatically a holographic image of the computer's screen was projected in front of us. "Wow," Sonny gasped. The others silently gazed in awe at the hologram. But I'd seen this kind of technology before and it didn't impress me even the slightest bit. Miss Russo tapped a button on the hologram of the screen. She chose a file and pressed print. 8 files printed. She handed one to each of us. "What are these?" Quinn asked. "Mission files," I replied, already examining the papers. "Your mission is to infiltrate this corrupt MI6 facility and kill or capture all its occupants. There is one leader, whom you must not kill, only caputre." She showed us the picuters in our files of the facility, and the leader (Joshua Harris). Everyone was glancing at Laura for reasons I didn't understand. She looked scared out of her mind too. I didn't understand why, and I was going to find out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Miss Russo rushed us off to mission prep, and this time even I was amazed. It was the largest room I've ever seen. Again all white, just like the others, but this room was full of weapons and suits and even wigs and sunglasses for going undercover. "Wow," I muttered
(March 27, 2012 - 2:47 pm)
Please excuse the awful writing. :)
Sora-
We had a plan figured out, but then Ms. Russo messed it all up. And I had an odd feeling that it was on purpose. She’d also blocked me out of her mind as if she didn’t want me to know something.
We were led to a room full of wigs and other things to disguise one’s self.
“Wow.” Nyota muttered.
“Oh my gosh! That looks like Oprah hair!” Sonny reached out to touch the wig, but Ms. Russo pulled her back.
“Don’t touch! First you’ll learn the basics of flying a jet, have a few combat sessions and first aid.”
Lipa could fly a jet perfectly so she was chosen as the pilot. I got to be co-pilot because I loved being up in the air and I did best in the practice.
After the jet-flying lesson, we practiced fighting in different situations. (Each situation was programmed for a different power.) And finally, first aid, which was disgusting so I won’t get into the details.
“Okay, girls, time to find your disguises. Each of you will get a folder. Right after you’ve landed you will dress like the person in the folder. You are each in groups of two to three people. Your only connection to the others is over a little earpiece, which you’ll get tomorrow morning.” A girl was led into the room by Con. “And by the way, this is Gail.”
Quinn muttered something about a “spy”.
I studied the girl and looked into her mind. She’d been here for two years. She didn’t know why she’d been chosen for the mission because she hadn’t been good in the tests – at least that’s what she thought.
“Okay, here’re your folders.” Ms. Russo passed them around.
“I bet she’s Ms. Russo’s side kick,” Kayden told me in a whisper.
I shook my head. “Doesn’t seem like it.”
Inside the folder was a person’s description.
Name: Ceren McDonall
Age: 17
- Exchange student from the US at Canterbury girl’s school in London
- One dog, gerbil, twin sisters, mom and dad
Under the description was photo of a girl with long red hair, freckles (like me) and blue eyes.
“Am I actually supposed to go to Canterbury girl’s school?” I asked.
“No. It’s just your cover. You’ll be dropped off by your mom everyday, but you’ll always go somewhere else. We’ll tell you where. You have one more disguise if you are somehow found out.” Ms. Russo answered.
I flipped to the second page in the folder.
Name: Maya Tatoro
Age: 20
- Designer, also from the USA
- no family
“There’s no way in my whole entire life that I could pass as 20!”
“Ever heard of make-up?” Sonny said sarcastically.
I rolled my eyes and picked out my disguises.
As I was picking out the wigs, Gail walked over.
“You’re at Canterbury, too?”
I nodded. “You, too?”
“Yep and Laura.”
After I had a suitcase full of clothes, weapons and wigs, I was given my orders. I was to take the train with Laura and Gail to a house, which we were to stay in. Everyday, an agent would drive us to school. Yet we wouldn’t stay at the school, we’d go find the MI6 people.

//Kayden//
I recieved my folder and flipped thorugh the papers inside it, finding my disguise paper.
Name: Jacob Fredrickson
Age: 17
-High school student in US, senior
-Three younger sisters
"What is this supposed to be? I'm a guy?!" I ask angrily to Miss Russo, and I can swear she's hiding a laugh. Sonny is snickering behind her. "Miss Scheller, you cannot turn back your mission folder." I roll my eyes but walk into the room with the wigs and costumes. Looking at the picture for guidence, I grab jeans, t-shirt, and a black wig to cover my hair. The others were variously picking out their costumes, so I reported to a man holding a sign that said "KAYDEN SCHELLER" on it in black paint. "Please report here, Miss Scheller." I nodded and turned his powers off, but he didn't say anythign so I'm guessing it's alright. He led me into a black limousine and we drove south for about two hours. "Where's this place that we have to infiltrate, anyways?" He didn't answer, so I just sat back and stuffed myself with provided cheese buns and soda. We finally arrived and I stepped out. The sunlight was blinding so I put on sunglasses, and we seemed to be someplace near a desert, because it was blistering hot and there was hardly a tree in sight. "Delightful place, eh?" I ask, but my escort just turns around, hands me my bags full of costumes, and leaves in the limo. "Thanks for nothing," I mutter, but grab my things and head off towards the place marked on my map. It seems to be about three miles from the school that I now go to, and about fifteen miles from the M16 facility. A girl who looked around my age walked up to me. "Hey Jacob." "My name isn't-" I cough and make my voice sound deeper. "Hey...er," "Therese." "Hey Therese." I try to make myself sound like those guys in the movies, but it isn't working very well. And this Therese girl knows it. "You got a cold or something?" she asks, then puts her hand on my forehead, almost wiping off my layers upon layers of makeup. "Gosh, Jacob, you feel hot; let's get you to your apartment." "Right, my apartment. Could you drive me there, I'm not feeling too good." She nods and leads me into a sleek red convertible. Soon we arrive at my apartment, and she leads me into the room. "Well, you better take it easy, Jacob. I guess we should reschedule our date; when do you think you're available?" "Date?" I freeze in my tracks. Why couldn't someone else have gotten the guy?! "Uhm...er, I...I'll call you, alright? Yeah, it might be a while, you know, flu and stuff." I cough into my elbow, but it doesn't sound very realistic. "Well, alrighty then." She smiles and moves forward to hug me, but I jut my hand out and shake hers. The second she leaves I finger my earpeice to make sure it works, then ask, "Anyone there?!" A crackly voice in a terrible British accent answers. "Yeah, it's Laura." "Hey Laura. Apparantly I have a girlfriend." More crackling and someone else comes on. "Kayden, you have a girlfriend?!" It's Sonny, great. "Who has a girl friend?" Nyota comes on. "Kayden does!" Sonny fills her in. "Guys, shut it! It's not my fault, that witch Russo gave me the wrong file or something! How am I going to get out of this?" "Has she kissed you yet?" Sonny asks earnestly. I grit my teeth and answer "No." "Good, because she does get it on video camera for me!" "Sonny! Look, Kayden, just roll with it, what's happened so far?" "I have a flu, so I guess I have to stay in my apartment for a while." "Good, good. Just avoid her and get to M16; we'll meet there tomorrow, alright? Tell the rest." Laura's voice disappears, and same with Sonny's and Nyota's. I sigh and head into my bedroom, wondering what happened to the real Jacob Fredrickson.
(March 28, 2012 - 8:01 pm)
I think that the school is in England. Isn't it?
(March 28, 2012 - 11:05 pm)
Ya it is but that's where Laura, Sora, and Gail are going. Kayden's going to a different place in London.
Laura-
Name: Phoenix (Nix) Tardus
Age: 17
-Student at the Canterbury School in London
-Mother named Audrey
Under the description was a picture of a girl with red and black hair, and peircing blue eyes. My first thought was wow this girl has a weird name. I went to go find the right wig and make up, then I went to find a changed Sora and Gail. "Canterbury too?" I asked. They both nodded. "A limo for each of you is waiting outside. You will go with whoever else is going to your cover area. At midnight tonight, you will all meet up at 47 Brickster Road, and you will infiltrate the facility. Lipa, you will carry the plans, since you are most expirienced." Lipa took the folder without saying anything.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Soon Sora Gail and I were in a limo headed off to annother school. This time in London. What confused me though is that we never took a plane, and the Academy was in America. Sora Gail and I all sat in the back of that limo for only three hours. Even on a plane it would take longer. "So what do we do when we get there?" I asked the driver. He didn't take his eyes off the road when he said, "You go to the school, you stay there until the end of the day, you do something until midnight, then you infiltrate." I nodded. "Thanks for the detail." I muttered. There was something that bothered me about this whole thing. It was the vision. I'd seen it myself in the box and I had a feeling it was about to come true.
When we arrived at the school I had to catch my breath. The place looked like a giant castle. Like a down grated not as cool Hogwarts. The driver took off with one last piece of advice. "Don't forget the British accents." Then he drove off. "Ok then. Do we just walk in like we belong here, or are we new students?" I asked. Sora flipped through the files. "We're new." She said. Lucky Sora didn't need to sound British. "Isn't that kind of odd. Three new students all at once?" Gail asked. I nodded. "Ya that does seem suspicious. Oh wait, here it says Gail and I already go here, but Sora's new." "Well that makes more sense." Gail confirmed. We strode up to the building. Sora waved by and went to go to the office while Gail and I waited outside. "So what's your name?" She asked. "Phoenix Tardus." "That's a mouthful." "I know right? It says here to call her Nix." "Ok then Nix, what shall we do now?" Gail asked in a only slightly convincing British accent. "We wait for the bell?" I replied in an equally odd accent.
(March 30, 2012 - 12:49 pm)
Just for reference, Nyota had a kind of Dursley-like family
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
//Nyota
I opened my file:
Name: Miyuki
Age: 17
-Japanese transfer student
-loves rice balls
I stared at the picture. The girl had long black hair and a thoughtful look about her. I wondered how she would act normally. Sighing, I put on the wig, makeup, and clothes. Then, hopping in the limousine, I started thinking. There was something odd about Mrs. Russo that I just couldn't put my finger on. But I put that thought aside. I step out, promptly being given bags of costumes. Before I could ask any questions, the driver left without a second thought. I half-walked and half-floated to the school. I still couldn't keep my feet on the ground for that long. I stood in front of the school, wondering what this would be like. Suddenly there was a crackling in my ear and I finger my earpiece. Sonny's voice comes on. ".... You have a girlfriend?" I blink, wondering if I'm interrupting a phone call or something. "Who has a girlfriend?" My curiosity got the better of me. Sonny chuckles. "Kayden does." I surpress a laugh and listen to the conversation. I can vividly picture Kayden blushing in her Jacob costume. Hanging up, I see a girl about Miyuki's age running up to me. "Class is starting! Come on, you're going to hold us both up if you just stand there all day." She has a thick British accent. I walk in.
(March 30, 2012 - 7:43 pm)
Sora-
I walked to the office, feeling nervous and stiff in the navy blue uniform that we had to wear. I was the only person who was “new” at the school so I had to go to the office by myself.
“He- hello,” I said in a really small voice as I walked into the secretary’s office.
A woman with greying hair and big green eyes stared at me without a word. “You should be in class.”
“Uh… I’m the exchange student from the US,” I whispered timidly.
“A little louder. I can’t hear you.”
“Exchange student.”
“Oh, yes. Are you Ceren?”
I nodded. Her thoughts were all mixed up, and she was annoyed that she had to work at the school instead of looking after her cat Matilda.
I snickered.
“What was that?” She spun around on her chair.
“Nothing.”
She turned back to the file drawer. “Here it is.” she finally gave me a slip of paper and a schedule.
“Um… Thanks.”
“Your classroom is down the hall and to the right. Number 22.”
“Thanks.”
She didn’t respond.
*
I walked into a classroom full of girls – extremely quiet girls. A teacher was scribbling on the board.
“Hello.” I looked for Gail and Laura. They were seated in the back.
“Why hello!” The man said happily. “Welcome to London. You must be Ceren.”
I nodded.
He guided me to the front of the classroom. “Girls, listen up! This is Miss Ceren McDonnell from- Where are you from?”
“Uh… Chicago.”
“Miss Ceren McDonnell from Chicago. Please be nice to her and help her if she asks.” He turned to me. “There’s a seat next to Emma. You can sit next to her.”
“Emma?”
He pointed to Gail. “Right over there.”
I walked down the aisle and sank into my seat. “This wig is sure getting itchy,” I whispered.
Gail smiled. “I can’t wait till this is over.”

~Sonny
Name: Lucia Dasenal
Age:18
Information: ~American Tourist in London
~ With boyfriend, Victor
~ Has five brothers and two sisters back home
~ Parents alive and well
~ Shopping today
The picture showed a girl who looked much like me, except she had a bad complexion and white-blond hair. I luckily would not have to change my accent. I went and found a perfectly-matching wig and a fashion-forward sundress. When I came back, only Con was there. "How do I pronounce my name: Loosha or Loochea?" I asked him.
He looked down at a clipboard. "Loosha," he grunted.
"Aahh, I wanted the Italian-sounding version," I complained.
"No whining, soldier," he shouted, "Get out there and find your feller!"
Why did I have to be stuck with a drill sargeant of a teacher. At least I got to go shopping. I had been in withdrawal (sp?).
I got into a long black limousene. I made the driver crank up the music and got out the earpiece I had been issued I fit it into my ear and turned it on. I heard Kayden and Laura talking about a... girlfriend? I tried to keep from laughing. Once the line went dead, the driver turned the music down. "I'm dropping you off," he said sternly, "At the hotel. Victor will be here in five minutes. You'll shop till ya daop, blah blah blah, until midnight. Then get to the base and infiltrate. Keep Miss Russo's little cousin safe!"
"Miss...?" I blabbered as something kicked me out the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Lucia?" a masculine voice asked.
"In here, Vicky!" I proclaimed as I tried to fix my mascara.
A boy around nineteen walked in. He looked a little like Miss Russo. "So that's what he meant," I whispered. My boyfriend was Miss Russo's cousin. Gosh, this was gonna be awkward. He was good-looking, though.
Just as I had seen, Victor asked, "And what do you mean by that?"
"What my dad meant when he said you were a fine young man," I giggled. I might have thought I was a little rusty, but I could still flirt with the rest of them.
"Sonny," Nyota whispered in my ear, "Come in, Sonny."
"Vicky, can you step out for a second. I gotta pee."
He did and I whispered furiously. "Nyota, I was flirting with my attractive boyfriiend, who just happens to be Miss Russo's cousin. Worst. Possible. Timing."
"Sorry, but the school Laura, Sora, and Gail went to is on fire. And they haven't come out alive yet."
(April 2, 2012 - 3:15 pm)
It's NAME! I have an awesome idea but I can't post it now because I have a soft-ball game! Just wait for me to get back please!
(April 2, 2012 - 5:39 pm)
YAY! I won!
Laura-
Everything was going fine. We were in the middle of some lesson about coordinates. I was barely able to keep my head up. The teacher (Mr. Marvin) called on me once, but he said Nix so I didn't react right away. "Nix!" Mr. Marvin shouted. My head shot up this time. "Yes sir?" Some of the other kids snickered. "At least try to look interested please!" I nodded solemly. "Yes sir." He returned to the board. I turned to Gail and Sora. "All the training at the Academy is starting to get to me." I yawned. Sora nodded. "Me too." "Just wait, after she gets to know you better, she's no mercy," Gail muttered. I sighed and tried to take part in the lesson. 10 minutes later the fire alarm went off. We figured it was just a drill so no one was really scared. But when some kid (Jenifer I think) went to open the door she cried out. "It's hot!" she shouted. I exchanged glances with Gail and Sora, then went to test the door myself. I pulled my hand back in alarm. "It is hot! It's a real fire!" I shouted. That's when everyone started to pannic. Kids started screaming, even Mr. Marvin started screaming. Sora and Gail rushed over. "What do we do?" Gail asked. "I wish Quinn had come with us!" Sora complained. I knew just as well as her that Quinn could have cooled down that fire in a second. "We have to think of something else." My mind was racing. "Urgh! All this screaming isn't helping!" Gail snapped. So I went around putting people to sleep so the three of us could think. "Ok window?" Sora asked. "Second story, we'd break every bone in our bodies," Gail responded quickly. "Fire escape?" "Isn't one." "That's it, I don't die here." I snatched one of the sleeping girls' sweatshirts and ran it under the sink. I then went to open the doornob before turning back. "Don't follow me." Then I opened the door and ran into the fire. The smoke was thick and made me cough. It blinded my vision. I couldn't see any flames but since the door was hot they must be close by. I charged blindly down the hall. I spun around, and was immediately lost. I had no idea which way was which. The smoke was too thick. Unconciousness started to grab at me. I knew I couldn't fall asleep or I'd get burned or choke to death. Suddenly I heard the sound of smashing glass. Someone grabbed me from behind. I struggled blindly, managing to get in a few well-aimed kicks. I looked back to see a guy no older than 17 with a gas mask. He hit me over the head and I blacked out.
When I woke up terror gripped me. Not because I'd been kidnapped, not because I was in the corrupt MI6 facility, but because this was the same place that I died in in Sora's vision. A tall man with graying hair and black eyes walked in with my captor, the boy, trailing behind him. "Are you sure this is one of Russo's?" the man asked. The boy nodded. "Sure of it. It's Laura Anderson." How did he know me? Wasn't I wearing a disguise." "You're ability to see the truth of others has come in handy, Mr. Turner." Oh that's why. He had special abiilties just like us. "Watch her," the man said. Then he left, leaving me and the boy alone.
(April 2, 2012 - 8:49 pm)
So sorry I haven't posted. I have tried many times but it never seems to get anywhere.
So should Sora and Gail know you were captured and alert the others?
(April 2, 2012 - 11:16 pm)
