This is NOT Luxury

Chapter Three

Chapter Three-

My sister is popular at school. Especially training school. She is like a prettier, mini, version of me. With charm. All of the boys try to impress her, but she could still outrun all of them. That's the Icewald family mark: running. We all have long and skinny legs, so we carry on quickly. Few asthmatic diseases carry in us too.

As we walk home from school, all of the boys would flirt with her, and Connor and I would giggle at the adorableness of it.

"Hey, Tiki," Torren Christiansen would yell, jogging by her. "So how was your weekend?"

"Good...?" She would reply, awkwardly, not picking up the hint that he likes her.

"See any good movies lately?" He would ask.

"Yeah, just the other day Samson and I went and saw that new movie about the Capitol girl who wakes up in district eleven. It was good." She would reply.

Another example:

"'Sup Icewald." A loser skater crackhead kid would say.

"Hiya!" She'd smile in return, most likely surrounded by her friends.

"So," the loser would try to put his arm around her, but she would stop him. "Did you hear me and Bianca broke up?"

"Bianca from the REBALLS?" She'd ask in response. Bianca was bad news.

"Yeah, and I was wondering if you'd want to hang out sometime soon." He'd reply. Again: Loser.

"Oh, no. Sorry, studying with Samson for the test tomorrow!" She'd reply.

As you can tell, she uses Samson as an excuse a lot. Something that says, "I'm-off-the-market-I-have-the-mayor's-son-instead-have-a-nice-day." But this caused her to be hated by the REBALLS.

Who are the REBALLS, you may ask? Oh well only the baddest girls. in district one, each letter representing one of their names. Not Rebels, but ReBALLS because they have more balls than you. Reyna Addams(the cocky redhead), Ella Hayes(the rainbow haired hormones on feet), Bianca Sherman(the goth drama queen), Angel Cochran(the smartest of the REBALLS, the mastermind), Lil' Berkowitz(the oldest baby), Laced Jones(Killer in training), and Silver Goldensburg(the rude Capitol girl). These girls are the killers, and the worst of district one.

Most importantly, they hate Tiki.

One time, it was an average day, I was 16, Tiki was 14, and we were walking home from school. We were walking home, past the butcher to get meat from the Marx for food for dinner.

Tiki skips around, finding herself very interested in the stones of many colors. It's raining. Here in District One, we get 30 inches of rain per year, that scatters around the seasons.

"Sisi, look at this one!" She calls, picking up a flat stone with red blue and purple glinting on it. She stares in wonder as I grin.

Right as we get outside of the Marx Meat Department, a knife goes against my neck. I reach for Tiki, and then she comes in front of me, with a girl having a knife against her neck too.

"Well, well, well." A voice coo's at us. "Isn't it the Icewald girls?"

Reyna Addams. The queen of the REBALLS. Even though she is a solid five inches shorter than me and two years younger, fear struck into my soul. I know she can kill.

And hates Tiki.

And would kill her.

Easily.
