Forest City Book 5 Chapter 4 -The Tora Issue-

-

    As Monty and I headed to homeroom, we noticed that someone was blocking our path.

    "Bonnie has a bone to pick with you... MONTY!" Midge began harshly.

    Monty rolled his eyes and pushed his glasses up to his face. He replied, "If Bonnie has an issue with me, then we can deal with it ourselves."

    Midge scoffed and disappeared into Mrs. Lanigera's classroom. Monty and I followed. We both set our backpacks next to our desks and sat down. Cobalt was sketching something in a sketchbook that looked similar to Clove's journal.

    "What are you drawing?" I threw the question out to Cobalt.

    "Oh just a little something for an art project," Cobalt answered, "I'm getting a little help with it... sort of." His answer seemed to be a little more vague than usual.

    "Look who decided to show his face!" Bonnie sneered from the other side of the classroom.

    Cobalt glanced towards where the sound was coming from; his ears bent down and he let out a low threatening growl.

    "I wasn't talking to you," Bonnie gestured to Monty, while she began to approach our table.

    "Bon, leave 'em alone, it's no use," Tora spoke up from where Bonnie was standing. He has what appeared to be a brace wrapped around his jaw.

    "What happened to him?" I questioned aloud.

    "Care to explain..." Bonnie's gaze met Monty, "Tell them how this happened."

    "Well, obviously, I couldn't have done that," Monty said under his breath.

    Bonnie began, but was interrupted, "Then who-"

    "Bonnie!" Tora interrupted, "It wasn't him.

    Cobalt and I turned our heads to get a look at Monty. We seemed to have had the same question Bonnie had.

    "Cas did it," Monty whispered, "Tora's parents really want to know who did this, so they can...you know..."

    "Press charges?" I questioned.

    "Exactly...and I don't think they want to convince anyone that it was Caspian," Monty said worryingly.

    "They want to put the blame on you," Cobalt continued Monty's thought.

    "No, it is no use to try and argue with them, I just want to move on with that whole..." Monty's voice trailed off, he just got out Clove's journal and dropped the conversation.

    I glanced at Cobalt, who had returned to his drawing, it seemed as if everyone wanted to just ignore the Tora issue.

Forest City 2 Chapter 10 -Wolf in Sheep's Clothing-

    "You." Mr. Lupin spat threateningly.     I sat in silence waiting for the attack.     "You are in so much trouble Macadamia," Lupin's voice began to rise in volume as he approached me, he continued while still taking steps towards me, "You think this game your playing is so smart, that you can ruin someone's life because you hate them."     Don't let his words get to you, I thought to myself, it's not worth it .     "Well, listen here, I hope that you get expelled and sent back to your father's farm," Lupin's words practically wounded me. He was awfully close to my face, his snout almost touching mine and he said silently, "Between you and me, I will win this little game you're playing." He took his hands off of the armrest of the chair I was sitting in, I hadn't noticed that my arms were wrapped around my chest in defence.     "Conall, get back in here, now," sounded Mrs. Chordata from the ...

Forest City Chapter 9 -Liar-

    It was around 3:52 when Aunt Hazel and I arrived back at her apartment. She has 8 minutes to get ready for tea with the ladies and I had already made my way up the stairs and into my room, remembering to not hit my head on the ceiling. I gazed out the window, hoping that Cobalt would be waiting, his lights were off and I didn't get to see his handsome blue eyes. My phone buzzed.     Cobalt: 3:53 "Expect to see me with no fur lol."       -Cobalt sent a GIF-     -Mac joined the conversation-     Mac: 3:53 "Lol how's detention going."     Cobalt: 3:53 "Dad was furious, Tora got away with it. D:<"     Mac: 3:54 "Sorry to hear about that, any other stupid consequences."     Cobalt: 3:54 "Lunch detention..."     Mac: 3:55 "What about Bonnie, she's going to drive Monty up the walls with her constant staring and gossiping."     Cobalt: 3:55 "Bonnie's been glaring at you two durin...

Forest City 2 Chapter 1 -October-

    It has been a month since Bonnie's disastrous birthday party, she hasn't talked to me since then, I don't blame her. I stepped over a few piles of dirty laundry in my room and opened my big dresser and all of it's glorious drawers. As a kid, I used to play in dresser drawers, I mostly rummaged through my parents and sisters dressers looking for something fun in them. I never was allowed in my brother's rooms, but I'm sure all that I'd find in their dressers are a bunch of old superhero comics or... I don't know... nut free snack foods. My brother Sorrel is a topic of conversation, he's deadly allergic to tree nuts, which is ironic because, well, we're squirrels. I threw that thought out of my brain, none of my clothes were clean, all my drawers were empty, and most importantly, Aunt Hazel was out of town. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO USE A WASHING MACHINE!!!     Our other neighbor, that lives on the opposite side of the Lupins, to the left of...
