New Sydneton (NS),
New Sydneton (NS), for those who don't know, is a very large city with only a few really big schools. All our characters go to one school (high school) there is large rich part with few houses (loads of trees and wide, clean streets etc.) and very poor part that’s not so clean. There is a large lake (good setting for things) and the city's known for having so much stuff and people from around the world! Also it has a rather small mall and grocery store, because most of the town is taken up by touristy stuff.
Add more to the city if you like, it’s a free world.
Here's my character:
Name: Heather Kimberly (nick name: Blue)
Gender: Girl
Nationality: Australia
Age: 15
Appearance: average high, long brown hair, small expressive eye brows and lips, large eyes, very thin, tan.
Characteristic:
Home: Good at school and with little kids, oldest out of seven children, does most of the work at home.
School: Sarcastic, rude to those below her in the pecking order, hangs out with only who she chooses, seems to like to tease
You’re free to make more than one character. This is free RP .

OK sorry!! I will ask your permission before I work with your character again. I admit I may have gone completely overboard with the rasberries and stuff, but I was bored. So yeah, sorry :O

Since we only have one boy, we all want to use him for something, because we've all got girls. Maybe some of us should make some boys too (though I'm terrible at RPing boys). Brittany has an old brother you could take or there is salad.
(June 13, 2012 - 10:26 pm)
Salad could definetly work. I was thinking of doing one of the wallball boys, like Eric or Jess. Idea-ness! Eric or Jess could be a community service project? I'll make another boy character if Gigi swears on the Hunger Games that he won't fall in love.

Sorry I haven't posted! Things have been so busy! :/ But I've read through the posts and think that I understand them so I'll just skip past the part where Sirius tells Mela that she smells like raspberries (I couldn't stop laughing, by the way) and go to my spy mission to room 125, OK? :)
Watermelon-
I walk out of the room after Sirius says something odd like I smell like snow or raspberries. I don't really get what's wrong with him, but it was sort of cute.
Room 125 is where I'm suppossed to go. I wonder why I was chosen to go on the mission where I'm new and all but go figure. Maybe they want to get rid of me. At least I think that that girl Eli wants me to leave. She seems to glare even though a few seconds ago she was laughing about something. These kids are confusing. I'm really not used to being around so many people at once. I guess I need to get a little more used to it because I'll be here for a while. A wave of homesickness overcomes me but disappears as soon as it came when I see Heather run around the corner.
I follow her to room 125, which she goes into. It's a classroom so there's a little window in the door. Perfect to spy through!
Inside is the prinicipal (does she have a name), a man who I've never seen before and Heather who's giving something to the principal. I press my ear to the door and listen as hard as I can.
"...will we do. You know that parents will start asking questions. That Irish couple seems too nosy for my taste." The principal is saying.
"Then we'll get rid of them." The man sounds gruff, almost evil.
"But, Rick, what we're doing is already bad enough... I don't know if that's such a good idea."
"We don't need people getting in our way." Rick is positively evil.
Heather clears her throat. "You...uh...wanted me?"
The two seem to suddenly notice that the girl is still standing there.
"Yes, Heather. We have a job for you." The principal glances at Rick, who seems impaitient. "We need you to watch the students and put these up at the places that are marked on the map." She hands Heather a map and a box of something.
Heather looks at the box, her eyes really wide. "You- are those- is this-"
"Those are cameras and little microphones. Put them up at the points we tell you to. Do it tonight. Don't tell anyone."
Heather looks at the box, then at them. "Is-is this all?"
Rick rolls his eyes. "Yes. Now go!"
The girl turns around and begins walking towards the door so I run before anyone sees me.

Yes, I was wondering what we'd do with Kale... One of you can write as him and do all the raspberries you want.
(June 14, 2012 - 1:06 pm)
I'll be Kale! And Holmes, *Holds hand up in solmn oath* I swear on the Hunger Games that I will not make your character fall in love.
(June 14, 2012 - 2:55 pm)
There's also Matt who is in the year above. If you guys don't want to RP him then I will. Also I don't what happens to him. He can fall of a building or Fall in love and call is crush as pretty as a duck. I Don't care. Have fun with him.
(June 14, 2012 - 8:22 pm)
Sorry this is short, my iPad is nearly dead...
Sirius-
Mela returns, breathless, from her spy mission later and tells us about what she's heard.
"....and now, they have told Heather to put up spy cameras and things all around the school."
Eli looks thoughtful. "This Rick person... I've never heard of him..."
"Forget bloody Rick, they were discussing my parents! We have to warn them."
"Mela, this is so important to us!" The words exit my mouth before I have time to feel nervous. "Now we know about the cameras expanding everything, you did so well!"
She smiles at me, not puzzled like last time but genuinely pleased. "Thanks!"
"Okay, guys, we have to get out of here and talk to Kate's parents. And it wouldn't hurt to have a secret meeting place, somewhere..."
Eli perks up. "I know a place, a back alley in a part of the city."
"But, guys, you're forgetting something-- if we don't deal with the cameras first then they'll know for sure," Brittany interrupts.
"We have to disable them!" Kale pipes up.
"First we have to find them, nerd boy," Eli replies. "Come on."

Quick Ethan Bio:
Name: Ethan
Age: Eli's age
Nationality: Half Mexican (dad cam over the border illegally.)
Appearance: On the short-ish side, dark hair
Personality: Likes to play street games, soccer when he can.
Test Post:
Ethan-
I knew they'd find out sooner or later! For the past eight years I've been telling my dad that he's homeschooling me illegally. He didn't listen. All he says is "That's not gonna happen, it didn't in Mexico. They just say that to scare you." So, census time came around and the city found out that I was not enrolled in school, or using a home school program. So they now are forcing me to go to the New Syndeton public school. I guess it won't be so bad, Eli tried to teach me how to read and write, so I think I might manage. The school sent this "Welcome to another year of doom-and-dread" to my house, and it told me what dorm I am staying in. Oh crud, this will be annoying.
End of test post.
Eli-
"First we have to find them, Einstein. Come on." I picked the lock to our room with our newly shop-lifted hair pins. We snuck out into the hall, except Kate, who stayed behind to guard our plans and do homework. We had scoured our floor, when who should walk up the stairs but Ethan. He looked depressed, the city probably found out he's homeschooling illegally. That family seems to do everything illegally.
"Hey, Eli," he says. I quickly fill him in on everybody's names and explain we're trying to disable security cameras. He looks like he wants to help.
"Anything to get out of this place," he says. I ask him what room he's staying in. He tells us he's in room fifty. Everybody except him looks at each other and rolls our eyeballs.
"What?"he asks, apparently offended.
"Oh, nothing," Salad says. "Room fifty has just kind of become a commune, lately."
"Kate's in the room, go put your stuff away and come meet us on the floor above," I say. Thank goodness, someone actually normal.

I kind of made NSPSHS a many-floored building, is that O.K.? All the better for a potential flood... *evil laughs*

Test Post
Kale~
Tons of thoughts were jumbling through my mind.
A lot had happened in the past few days. We had been abducted, locked up, and turned into super spies. Unfortunately, some of our super spies were just plain jerks. Take that Eli girl, for example. She acted like I was a piece of dirt! My mom had told me that when people pick on you, they're just jealous. I was really starting to wonder. Anyway, at least I had Sirius, even though he was pretty caught up lately with tripping over himself for that Mela girl. What was so special about her, I couldn't figure out, but oh well, all's fair in love and war, as they say. Whatever. All I wanted to do was get out of here.
End of test post
Kate~
I stared down at my homework, but nothing was coming into mind. The school was planning to bloody hurt my parents! Just the thought made my stomach get queasy. What if they had already done something? What if they had kidnapped Sean or hurt Brianna or...
A sudden knock on the door made me jump. To my surprise, Ethan from WallBall walked in. "Hi Kate," he said, putting down his bags.
"Ethan! What're you doing here?" I asked. "I thought you were homeschooled?" He shrugged. "The town found out. Now I'm stuck here." I nodded. "Well, welcome to the school of doom." He snorted. "C'mon, Eli told us to meet her on the upper floor." I nodded and followed him out the door.

now for my test post,
Test post
~Matt~
School seem strangely quiet...I sat on my book playing on my old
computer that I’d make perfect one day. I fiddle then got a program up to send
a text to Brittany. She and her friends seemed to be having a good time spying
on people...
You have one new
message!
Why do computers and phones think that is so exciting?
Hey Matt,
Can’t talk long, something
big is happening and I mean big. The school told someone to put up a heap of cameras
and one of my friend’s parents are in danger!
How do you disable
them? Can you help us? You’re so smart and older. Please.
I lean back and frowned, Brittany was on to something bigger
than I thought.
“I’ll help,” I murmured and closed my computer...
(June 14, 2012 - 11:40 pm)
Eli-
"What the heck are you doing?" I asked as Brittany (who silently tagged along) whipped out her phone.
"Texting my brother. He's, like, a genius when it comes to tech, and stuff," she replies as her thumbs franticly fly across the keyboard. She says this very American-ized sentence in a British accent, so it sounds very funny. I think she's trying to fit in.
"If you want, but how's he going to get in to the school?" Salad says.
"He can figure that out. He likes that sort of thing," Brittany says. Doubting her, I stare into a doorway. A camera lense stares back at me.
Ethan-
This is so confusing. First, I have to live at a place I've never seen in my life, and second, Eli and all her friends are acting crazy. Is this what school is always like? If it is, I want to get out of here like a racehorse.
Kate doesn't make things better, not looking up from her paper and ignoring me.
"Hi?" I say, trying to get her attention.
"Mm? Oh, hi Ethan." She goes back to her paper, and then looks up and says, "Wait, Ethan? What are you doing here?"
"I got found out. I was being homeschooled illegally."
"I see."
Awkward silence. I want to get out of here.
