Chapter 2: The Quintet

Auburn hair in a messy top-knot, purple eyes disguised as brown with contacts. She wore a green sweatshirt that said "The great thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it. ~Neil deGrasse Tyson" with light blue skinny jeans and white, low-top Converse. Kassandra blended in to the best of her ability, unlike her friends. Vic's style screams "gamer girl". A few strands of her mouse brown hair were dyed cotton candy blue at the ends and it was almost always in a pony tail. Her shirts were either sarcastic jokes or a music or game reference, like Kass' were usually science puns and jokes. She wore ratty -or as she would say "well worn"- tennis shoes. Kit wore a burnt orange-red tee with a black leather jacket, black jeans, and black combat boots with black head phones. On the back of his jacket was a nine spoked wheel stitched in bright, fiery red and on the sides of his head phones were red foxes seemingly made of fire. Sune wore the same thing except in corresponding shades of icy blue and his foxes were made of ice instead of fire. Alli, who they met up with on the bus, wore a light blue, 3 quarter length sleeve tunic with white leggings and white, high-heeled sandals. She had golden hair and bright, sky blue eyes. She was a daughter of Apollo in looks but a daughter of Aphrodite in nature. Laughter was a well known song between the five. It unified them and made them better friends. Days passed and it became as if Sune was always there with them. Together again, the twins were as mischievous as they had been back home in Japan. Yet, they knew better than to prank the girls. Before he met Vic and Alli, Kit tried to dump bright pink dye on Kass as a prank. Let's just say Kass ended up super mad and Kit had a horrible black eye the next day. The twins were smart, mischievous, funny, and a little bit crazy. Alli was a saint. Childish, smart, excitable, and as loyal as Percy Jackson. Vic was a foul mouthed, sarcastic bitch as well as a gamer. Kass was the total nerd. If she wasn't wearing a sweatshirt, she wore a silly science shirt. She was awkward, funny, insanely smart, creative, loving, and a total fangirl. So was Alli, actually. The day passed as normal for them. Class after class went by in a blur. Chemistry, American Lit, APWH, Art, Drama, Health. Nothing was new for the quintet. Something was about to happen.

That afternoon, four of the quintet gathered at the twins' home. "Y'know, we could've done the aftereffects of pollution in Dublin, but no, we have to do the earthquakes and tsunamis in Japan I hate y'all so much." Vic snorted. "No, you don't"

"Shut up, shuck face. I'm trying to act pissed!" At that moment, the beginning of C'mon by Panic! At The Disco feat. Fun. blared from Kass' phone. "Why is Alli calling me?" she muttered

"Bitch, like I know? Answer the damn thing!" and she did just that. "Alli?"

"Hey" Kass glanced at her other four friends. "You do know we're working on a project, right?"

"Ah, shoot! I'm sorry... Just what's the probability of 4 meteorites landing within 100 miles of each other?" Kass furrowed her brow. "Uhh, slim but not impossible."

"What if one landed in my backyard." Her mouth popped open. "We'll be there in 5 minutes. Are you okay?" She moved her mouth away from the phone, "Get your stuff" She mouthed.

"I'm okay. Just a little shaken up." She sighed. "Give us a few and we'll be there."

"Alright, bye."

"Don't go near it!"

"Okay, okay bye" The line went dead. The twins were wearing their jackets and Vic was wearing her hoodie. "Four meteorites crashed in a hundred mile radius and one is in Alli's backyard." Vic gasped. "Yeah, come on." Kass grabbed her scooter from the garage as Vic grabbed her skateboard and the twins got their bikes.

Three minutes later, they arrived at a baby blue house. It was where Alli lived. A giant figure loomed behind it. The quartet heard Alli scream.
