Part 8
Yeah, well, that was a flaw I did NOT see coming.
As it turns out, Lloyd saw me putting the dye in, and switched them himself. And then I switched them again, without knowing... Let's just say I really hope he can't burst down a locked door.
"Violet, I swear, open this door!" He yells.
"Um, sorry, this is a no pink zone," I reply, before realizing how bad that sounded. Fact is, everyone in this house hates the color pink, and everyone's rooms are practically rainbow, except for that one color. "I didn't mean it like that!"
Yeah, that didn't help so much.
"As soon as you come out that door... You had better have either a plan to get this out or an escape plan."
Good thing is, I did in fact had a plan. It wasn't very good, or reliable, but in movies they always work. And my life is kinda like a movie, right? Orphan, taken in with her sister to a home with a father, mother, and son. Of course, that mother is rarely home...
I'm getting off point. Anyway, Lloyd has been in awe of these ninja guys. I must admit, they are pretty cool. But anyway, if I can somehow get them here for his party... See where I'm going? Yeah. Just gotta figure out how.
How do you even get a ninjas attention? Like, scream? Cause I think dad would kill me. Um, maybe try to get a symbol, like batman? That doesn't sound right either.
And I'm running out of time. If dad sees his only sons hair pink, he's gonna flip. Lucky he had to run a few errands.
I look at the clock, 11:39, and that means I have a little over twenty minutes to get this.
I start to freak out a little, and beads of sweat appear on my forehead as the lights dim. "Um, Lloyd, did you dim the lights in here?"
"What? Why would I do something to make you happy after what you did to me?"
Well, he has a point. Most kids are scared of the dark, where it calms me. And unless I suddenly control darkness or something, then this room must take me as its leader.
"Hey, I control the room! TIS MINE NOW, MINE!!" I yell, making sure he gets the point.
"What's going on- woah, Lloyd, I know you like to try new styles, but this is not your color," Taylor says from the other side of the door.
I hear Lloyd grumble, "Yeah, well, tell that to your sister."
Crap.
"Violet, what did you do?! I told you NOT to prank him today! Open this door now!"
"Yeah, um, about that... I tried to switch it back! He must have seen me put it in and switch it, then I switched it after you told me not to prank him, so really he did it to himself."
"Open. This. Door. Now."
I sigh, and go over to unlock it. I looked at in confusion when it wouldn't unlock, however.
"Now, Violet."
"I'm trying!" I reply, starting to freak out more. I look up and realize the lights were completely out. How on earth? The switch was still on. Even more, how could I still see?
"Um... Two things. First, I can now see in complete darkness! But, I think I'm locked in here."
I heard Lloyd snicker, "Serves her right."
Then a thump.
"Ow!"
"Be nice. Anyway, just hang tight. We're gonna try to get this out of his hair until dad gets back."
"Yeah, hope you don't have to use the bathroom."
Oh gosh. I hope I don't too, cause that would be a problem. I heard them walking to the other end of the house, leaving me alone in my thoughts. Of all the things that could have happened...
Well, hopefully this was revenge enough for him. But, because I know that's not realistic, it won't be. I just don't know what could be worse.
