Adolescent Choices by Ideas (sry if my grammar is a little bad)
It was another Friday night in Melbourne & school had ended for another long week,The sun was changing the sky’s colour as it ducked down below the metropolitan region,
As the blue sky turned to black, all the teenagers were emerging from their homes like bears exiting a cave,
They all headed over to an abandoned warehouse that sat a few streets over from the bank of the Yarra,
A brown-haired girl by the name of Elizabeth was worrying about what was going to happen that night,
Everyone in school knew her as an outcast, she had no friends but she was at this gathering to try & fit in with the crowd,
The warehouse was a sardine tin with teenagers filling up the building like flies to a turd,
The DJ was about to hit play on one of the turntables, everyone was getting hyped like 5 year-olds eating sugar,
Elizabeth was still pondering anxiously about the events that the night might bring,
She was turning her head left to right & back to left again like she was crossing a road to see if she would be free from any danger,
The DJ started the music in a smooth transition, Coincidentally the first song was Warehouse by Logistics,
It was also a coincidence that it was Elizabeth’s favourite song,
she was possessed by the music,
She forgot about all her worries throughout the song & just as the DJ rolled out the next song the bully of her year named Eve came over to pick at her like a chicken to a sack of seed,
She walked up behind her & tipped a waterfall of water down Elizabeth’s back & ran off with the laughter of a clown,
Elizabeth was about to break down in tears when Eve came back over & forced her to drink an odd substance, She refused the drink,
“Do it you munted twat” said Eve who was about to roast her alive like a marinated pork leg,
“No!” Elizabeth shouted in her face, thrusting full boar at her & punched her face into the back of her head,
The li quid that was in Eve’s hand flew towards the roof & the cup emptied its contents onto her, some of the drink she accidentally swallowed,
The party was making its way further into the night, an eighth of the crowd was blazing a bushfire of bongs,
Elizabeth wanted to leave but she noticed Eve was lying on the floor, wiggling like a fish out of water,
“Oh crap!” Elizabeth yelled in her head & whispered in her voice, “She’s swallowed some of that drink!”
There were a few girls & boys around her who noticed what was happening, some of them freaked out as the fish flopped about,
Elizabeth thought she’d better do the right thing so she called an ambulance for help,
A boy by the name of Ash had helped her to drag Eve outside of the warehouse,
After 10 minutes of waiting the ambulance finally pulled up at the gate of the building,
The paramedics jumped out of the vehicle & ran like as if they had a serial killer behind them to the front of the building where Elizabeth & Ash were waiting with Eve,
The paramedics said “Right, we’ll take over now as they lay the twitching female on the trolley,
As they were wheeling her to the van, the police rocked up like a curious vulture to see what had happened,
Elizabeth explained everything to them while Ash helped the paramedics, one of the cops was scribbling everything down in a black notebook as she spoke,
The police realised that it was time to shut the party down so they called for some backup,
Four more blue collared taxis & a paddy wagon rolled up to the scene, some of the bobbing heads inside the building saw the lights outside & ran like they’ve kidnapped someone,
The Ambulance drove off into the city with Eve shaking in the back cabin while Ash wandered back inside to join the other teenagers,
The policeman who was interviewing Elizabeth said “You did a very smart thing, good job.” While the other officers went inside, one holding a megaphone,
The DJ abruptly stopped the music midway through Being With You by Foul Play & everyone was shuffled outside like wandering zombies,
An eighth of the crowd hadn’t left yet due to being so high on pot that they could fly to Seychelles & back,
The policemen loaded the stoners into the paddy wagon & commuted them to the cop shop,
Elizabeth strolled home thinking about how glad she was that she didn’t drink the odd substance & wondering if Eve was alright at the same time,
She had arrived home when her mum who was worried sick to the stomach about her said that a news reporter was coming around to interview her tomorrow,
But by the time that her mum finished her sentence Elizabeth was sleeping like a log, sleeping deeper than the Mariana Trench,
The night was glowing for there was a full moon & the news reporters were down at the station waiting like seagulls to be fed with the story,
Ash had wandered off to bed while Eve was busy being taken care of by a nurse in the blank, white hospital ward,
The doctor paced in & showed the nurse the test results, Turns out the drink was compiled with two crushed up ecstasy pills, vodka & Redbull,
The doctor gave Eve a shot of a medicine which had an unpronounceable name & her heart rate started to slow down like the brakes on a car,
Eve was then out like a light, ready for more tests the next morning, when she got back to school she started to suck up to Elizabeth like a dummy, Elizabeth was queen at her school & a hero in the streets.
