24th March

Excerpt from: The Bratty Cheerleader

“I don’t have to like it.”

 

 

Brittany still wasn’t sure what to do about the situation as school let out. “I’ll talk to Ashley-Amber,” she decided.

 

“Babe!”

 

Brittany sighed. “Kevie!”

 

“What’s up, Babe?”

 

“You know what’s up! We’re not lab partners!”

 

“Oh!”

 

 

Excerpt from: Mysteries of Aurora

“I’ll have another look before going back to the Hall,” Olivia said.

 

“I’ll come too.”

 

 

It was already getting late as they arrived back at the Library. The evening crowd of students using the various study nooks were already there. But Olivia had already determined that the Ancient Section didn’t have many of those.

 

Talia and David were still there, and there were are few others there too.

 

“You talked to Freya?” Talia asked.

 

 

Excerpt from: Spider Quinn

She breathed heavily.

 

Anders was involved in her next segment as she left the changing room. ‘I’ll wait until the next break,’ she said.

 

 

Nadia Blackwood knew something was up. Something had felt off about SpiderGirl. “Tori for you,” her mother said as she entered the lounge room with the cordless phone.

 

“Thanks,” Nadia said.

 

Nadia?” Tori asked.

 

“Hi, Tori,” Nadia said. “I thought you were watching the play again.”

 

I am, but it is yet to start. This is about Anders’ interview.

 

“You think something is off too?”

 

Quinn and Stacy agree. In fact, Quinn thinks it’s a fake,” Tori responded.

 

“A fake? Now that I think about it…”

 

Exactly. Like, why would SpiderGirl suddenly give an interview?

 

“I’m not watching Anders anymore,” Nadia decided.

 

That’s not enough.”

 

“You want me to tell others?”

 

Quinn as well,” Tori said.

 

“I’ll do it!”

 

 

After Tori called Nadia, Quinn went to find Daria.

 

Daria was already getting ready for the evening’s show. “Quinn?”

 

“I was watching Lynn Anders’ show. They had an interview with SpiderGirl, but I don’t think it was the real SpiderGirl.”

 

Daria looked surprised. “I didn’t think she would go that far. But I would have to watch the show myself to be sure.” She shook her head. “I’ll investigate with the fourth vigilante later. The play’s the priority.”

 

“Of course,” Quinn said. ‘But now I’m more sure that she’s Dafoanairi.’

 

 

Again, the tickets were sold out and the theater was full of people of all ages eager to see Daria’s take on Shakespeare.

 

As the play started, the suspicion of Lynn Anders having faked the interview with SpiderGirl spread as various Lawndale High students who weren’t at the play called each other, starting with Nadia and the others Tori called, and spreading from there.

 

 

Sandi was about to perform another search when she received such a call. She grabbed the energy drink, but then her cell phone rang, almost causing her to drop it. “Ugh! Who?” she asked as she answered.

 

Hi, Sandi!”

 

“Julia?” Sandi asked. She wasn’t sure why Julia Barbero would be calling her.

 

Did you see Lynn Anders tonight?

 

“Not tonight. Like, I don’t watch her every night. I’ve had enough of her latest fixation.”

 

That’s why I’m calling,” Julia said.

 

“Oh?”

 

She had an interview with SpiderGirl, but it wasn’t the real SpiderGirl.”

 

“She faked an interview with SpiderGirl?” Sandi asked in surprise.
