"Are you sure you saw Jacquel?" Hedley said when Peyton saw him.707Please respect copyright.PENANAqg3cUYbXnt
"Well, who else would it be?" said Peyton. "You know how she is; she always stands up for handicapped people and bullies able-bodied people. Did you see what she did to Cassidy? She pushed her down!"
"Sounds like Jacquel alright," said Hedley, "but I'm still not convinced that it's her. After all, do you remember what happened to her before Cassidy kidnapped us?"
"I do," said Peyton. "She kidnapped Jacquelyn as well because of some personal vendetta. I mean, who knows what happened between Jacquelyn getting kidnapped and us getting kidnapped."
"Please tell me that this is a joke," said Hedley. "Jacquel cannot be here, or is she?"
"Yes, she is," said Peyton.
"Then let's go talk to her," said Hedley. "I'm sure that no matter what, she'll be happy to see us."
"It's worth a shot," said Peyton.707Please respect copyright.PENANAleRz55qiow
They approached the girl in question, not bothering to notice that she was NOT the same Jacquel that they knew. For one thing, Jacquel Romanov had turquoise eyes, blonde hair and loved to wear pink clothes. This Jacquelyn wore black clothes, dyed blue and purple hair, and had dark blue eyes and tan skin.
"Jacquel?" Peyton said, with a hesitant look on her face. Hedley too looked hesitant, but he knew that the last time he had seen Jacquel, he had been an owl named Hedwig.
"And who are you?" said Jacquel with a look of suspicion on her face.
"You know who I am," said Peyton. "I'm Harry Potter and that's Hedwig. We used to be friends at Hogwarts. Don't you remember anything?"
"You're crazy," Jacquel snapped as she glared at Peyton. "I don't associate with crazy people. Now get out of here so I can get Jazmyne to her next class before the normals come."
"What's wrong with normal people?" said Hedley.
”And why do you have a problem with them?” said Peyton.
"Because they're all nothing but stupid, greedy dumbasses who don't give a crap about their handicapped brothers and sisters," said Jacquel. "Besides, you've seen what Cassidy did to Jazmyne. The poor girl has Down Syndrome and her mother firmly insists that she be placed in the normal classes with the normal kids. Now, like I said before, get the frick out of my way or I will MAKE you!"
"Wow, she sure has changed," said Hedley as he and Peyton watched Jacquel take the girl and leave. "If I didn't know any better, I'd say that Cassidy must have brainwashed her to forget us before bringing her here. How else could she have said the stuff that she said to us?"
"You're right," said Peyton. "She must have been brainwashed, or maybe she's working for Cassidy herself! We need to get her back to normal now!"
"And how are we going to do that?" said Hedley. "Cassidy has her sticky hands all over the school and Jacquel hates us."
"Not unless we get the Sirens involved," said Peyton. Hedley glared at her. "What? Maybe by having them pull a prank on Jacquel and blaming it on Cassidy can we set her straight. Besides, what else do we have to lose?"
Hedley nodded in agreement, knowing they were permanently stuck in this strange new world. They didn't have anything to lose.
"Alright, let's do it," he said nervously.707Please respect copyright.PENANAmGShjPnkx2
