Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 12

Martha was impatiently waiting at the room’s door.
“Ready?”
“Wait a bit…” Jennifer shouted from inside the room.
“Come on, it is just a uniform…”
Jennifer got out of the room and faced Martha.
“Make-up takes time as well…”
They were both late. It would soon begin and it was the girls’ first time. But, by the time they arrived, the festival had already begun.
In what used to be the gymnasium, now a huge and coloured fair had risen. Colours of every club in the school were filling the place with the aim of getting the new students to their club’s side. Every strategy was used except for harmful techniques. And everyone was doing his job correctly.
“This way!” Jen grabbed Martha’s arm and conducted her to
Martha didn’t regret not having fight to free herself. Outside the gymnasium, a friendship clime could be felt. Martha had the feeling this festival would be the best.
It had passed 2 months after Martha’s entry in the academy. They were in middle of November, a beautiful and brownish November. But this wasn’t an ordinary day.
“Martha!” a person called from inside the gym. She just ran. She knew where he was.
Jen finally caught her still holding her breath. “Where… are you… going?”
Martha stooped running when she got into the Soccer Club tent. “Here!” And she turned at the person who had called her. Her brother.
“Got the thing?”
“Sure.” He winked.
Jen was suspicious. “What are you two preparing?”
The meeting of twins was interrupted by the sudden arrival of Brian. “You have got things to do, Jack.”
“Ah! You scared me!” both twins almost screamed.
After sighing, both twins looked around trying to see her.
“What are they trying to do?” Brian approached Jen.
“Dunno. By the way, I’m Jennifer.”
“Brian. Pleasure to meet you.” He winked at her to go back to the boredom of the two twins trying to search a certain birthday girl.
“Jack, you’ve got duties, remember?” Brian took his hear.
“Ouch, stop that! Ok, ok…” he then turned at his sister. “I’ll keep this.” He pointed at a folded object. “Warn me if you see her around.”
“Sorry, but I’ll take him from you… sis…” Brian joked using his known wink.
However, it didn’t last as much as it used to. “Let’s go Jen!” Martha replied after punching Brian in his face.
“Where are you heading to? And why did you punch him? He seems to like you…”
Martha froze. “What are you trying to insinuate?” she almost screamed but wasn’t able to hide her blush.
Eventually, Jen caught Martha and her ultra speed. And maybe it could be a super day…
“Let’s go to this tent!” Jen caught Martha’s hand and lead to the first one.
Once inside, Martha could see a few youngsters being submitted to an exam. The examiner, a person she had already met: the news reporter, Diane. Next to her, Greg was just taking notes.
“Jen…” she whispered. “Let’s get out of here…”
Not quick enough. A book was thrown too close to Martha’s head.
“Look who’s here.” A non-welcoming voice menaced Martha. “I could identify that hair from afar. Isn’t that right, Jack O’Lantern sister?”
“My brother’s name isn’t… O’Lantern!” a big and frightening Martha raised. “In fact, I don’t even know why I stopped at your tent…” Jen raised her hand.
Martha was about to leave when the voice attacked again. “To afraid to take my tests, are we?” Diane didn’t expect such a reaction.
In the next 40 minutes, Martha was busy beating Diane in every challenge to the reporters’ entry. No wonder Martha got out completely tired.
“It was funny…” Jen replied with a smile.
Martha’s terrifying expression made her smile fade. But after a juice, happiness came back. They visited many clubs including the Astronomy Club, the Writing Club and the Chess Club.
“A chorus club? Are you sure?” Martha asked.
“Yes, this is perfect. I always wanted to do this!” Jennifer cheered as signing the registration sheet.
But when they got out of the tent, Martha recognised someone passing by. Henry, the high school hoot.

Next Chapter:
Long talk with Henry. The adventure and the security department club. Mandy’s friend.

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 11

Run, run to where no one can find you…
That was the way Martha had to keep her problems away. Far away from everyone: in her bed.
“Are you okay?” Jen asked concerned.
Martha’s heart melted like butter.
“Thank you” she thanked avoiding visual contact. “But I want to be alone…”
Jennifer was still concerned after leaving the room. Seeing one of her best friends like this was something disturbing to her.
“I could…” she wondered with a victorious smile in her face.
She then headed to the boy’s dormitory.

A knock on the door was heard from inside the room.
“Stay out!” Martha ordered from inside.
However, the intruder didn’t obey.
“Didn’t you hear?” she sat in her bed to face the intruder. “ I said-“
“Shut up, sis.”
There was her brother.
“What are you doing here?” Jack asked.
“This is my room, if you don’t remember.” She ironically affirmed.
He grabbed her hands and stared at her, face to face.
“If you have a problem, you shouldn’t close yourself. You know I’am always here for-“
She exploded.
“DON’T YOU GET IT? YOU ARE THE SOURCE OF MY PROBLEMS!!!”
With that, she got out of the room leaving a clueless brother behind.
“Why?”

Fury was now leading her. It seemed that wherever she went, someone blocked her path. At least, she had that special spot.
Nature was peaceful there. The vision of the garden was always comforting. She was lying in the ground, trying to relax. Nature had that effect on her. But a shadow blocked the sun on her face.
“Excuse me… Can I sit here?”
Martha didn’t quite see the girl’s face due to the sunlight but she nodded.
“Oh, this is a perfect spot.”
The girl sat near Martha. The slight breeze danced with both girls’ hair: Martha’s ponytail and the girl’s long and dark-coloured hair.
Even a detective, Martha didn’t except the following incident.
“You can tell me you’re problems if you want…”
Martha was really surprised with the girl’s perspicacity. And without delay, told her everything.
“My brother was got a person whom he likes. In fact, he loves her. The problem is that I am his twin, we lived together and I got used to the idea that he belonged to me. I know that someday we would have to set apart, but I think that, at that point, I will be prepared to accept the situation.”
“Jealously?”
“Probably, but it is more than that…”
“Only one thing, get yourself a boyfriend to make him jealous as well!” the girl winked at Martha, which made her feel better. In fact, her detective skills ere operational once again, with which she identified the girl. Pauline Bernard, the girl who her brother had fell in love with.
But she didn’t hate Pauline at all. She was a friend now.

Jack was dishoping. He, Jennifer and Mandy had been looking for Martha for about half an hour. Jack was now relaxing a bit from his tiring walk, while Mandy and Jen were talking about their school life.
“Oh, but have you seen Mr. Keith? He’s like a whale!”
“But that’s nothing compared to Mr. Jonathan. Have you seen his big-?”
“Could you two just shut up already?” Jen was embarrassed while Mandy had a furious expression in her face. “I just wish Martha could be right here…” he said pointing at two females.
“Whom are you pointing at? That is rude…” Martha replied.
Jack didn’t bother answering her. He just hugged her as strong as he could.
“Stop, you’re suffocating me!” she replied happily. He had been forgiven.
Jack now spotted the other female.
“I just had the chance to meet your twin. She really is great! Don’t you think?”
Her smiled was melting Jack, which made him blush.
“So, who’s the girl you are in love to? Is it Sally?” she asked with dreamy eyes.
‘It’s you...’
“Oh,… ahm… it is…ahm… a secret!!! Yes, it is a secret!!!”
The three viewers were having fun, each one in a different way.
“Man, they are hopeless.” Jen replied still smiling.
“You got a point.” Mandy agreed bored and getting away. “See ya!”
However, Martha had a huge smile in her face.
“I get it, I get it!!!” she left the couple accompanied by a clueless Jen.

Next Chapter:
The club’s week. Can you survive it?

Author’s Note:
I hope you liked this funny chapter. Pauline is one of the most important characters: it is important not to forget her. Next Chapter may be different from what I planned, but it will be good as well. Stay tuned and… comment!!!

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 10

No way!
There she was, waiting for the game to start. Soccer wasn’t definitely her sport. She already knew who had sent her the card, her detective skills were telling her, but how did he managed to find where her locker was?
The tier was starting to fill up. The loudspeaker was now introducing the players. And there he was, no mistake. But why did he invite her? Was it a way to thank her?
“Excuse me, ma’am. Has this place been taken?”
Martha looked at the speaker. He was carrying a cap, but he seemed awesome inside it.
“Uhm…no. Please…” she said between blushes.
The youngster sat right near her. His cap was hiding his eyes; she really wanted to see them. The match eventually started. It was between schools: Westminster, Martha’s college, and Liverpool. He was behaving well, though. The cap boy was too observing someone.
“You are watching the one who’s in the attack, aren’t you?” Martha replied with a grin in her face.
He seemed surprised but smiled too.
“Yeah, he’s my roommate. How about you?”
“Oh, I’ve been invited…”
“Who invited this pretty girl before me?”
Martha had to lower her face. Oh, the heat!
“I think is that guy over there…” the boy turned at the referenced player, who had just been robbed a ball “He’s not very experienced, though…”
“Right…”
Then, she noticed someone else. Could he be…?
‘Na, gotta change lenses…’
She had been waiting the whole ten minutes to ask him this question.
“Why don’t you take off your cap?” she asked still blushing. Would the beautiful guy reveal his face?
The boy turned around to check his surroundings.
“Can’t, there’re too many girls…”
‘Too many girls???’
The conversation ended there. Martha was still deadly curious, but being quick wasn’t the best option. Maybe… ah, couldn’t be… She finally heard the sound announcing the break. Westminster was losing 1-0. Was there any chance left?
The cap boy stood up and turned at Martha.
“Well, I gonna check my player. Wanna come?” She agreed embarrassed.
They left quietly the bench and advanced towards the change rooms. The team was still leaving the field and a muscled guy advanced towards the place where Martha was.
“So, what do you thought?” he asked the cap boy.
“You’re getting better.” He said smiling and punching him friendly in his chest.
“Oh, take that thing off!” the soccer player took off the cap of his friend’s head.
‘Oh, crap!’
Martha had never seen such a beautiful face. The guy was perfect, the emerald eyes fitted perfectly with the huge smile he was always hearing, his nose was thin enough to exist in harmony and the unordered and brown lighted hair. Somehow, he was perfect.
Yes, she had already seen him, the day she had met the Security department.
“Sorry, pretty, this is Paul. My roommate and best friend.”
“Don’t say such things, you’re embarrassing me!”
She was supposed to present herself, but the words weren’t able to come out. The only words in her mind were related to the cap God, she had stick with him.
‘Wake up!’
Weird, she had already sensed that sensation.
“Hi, ahm, I’m Martha…” she said blushing and presented herself to the two guys.
“Pretty, I’m Henry…” Dreamy name. “I just gonna chat with this guy here. See ya!”
She waved at him, not noticing her heart beating fast. He had called her pretty.
“You have already started chasing guys, huh?”
The one she wasn’t expecting appeared.
Brian, the guy she had met the day she arrived. Ok, a very good-looking guy, but Martha regarded him as her rival.
“So what?” she asked sarcastically.
“Nothin’, just beware of your brother. But I guess it’s okay, he already has an almost girlfriend…”
‘What?’
“Don’t stare at me that!” he ordered with a pleasured smile “Just ask him!”
Can’t be! He can’t have a girlfriend… can he?
Brian felt he had already spoiled everything. He sighed and advanced towards the changing room.
“But, that guy you just met is right, you really are pretty…”
He disappeared after winking at her. Men, she was blushing too much for a day… However, she hadn’t still seen who she wanted. But after a while, he appeared.
The view was just clumsy. The coach was shouting at him and spreading his anger through the boy’s body. He was already chilling. Finally, the coach finished his speech and ordered him to enter the change room. Martha felt sorry for him, but he totally forgot about it when he saw her.
“So, what do you though?”
Dave was looking hopeful at her. What to say?
“Ah, well, keep practising and you’ll be a great soccer player!!”
“Really?!!!”
‘Telling lies isn’t as comfortable as it seems…’
“So, why did you invite me?”
This time, Dave was the one who blushed.
“Oh, well, to thank you…”
“I guess you paid your debt, but if you ever have a problem, tell me!” she winked at him.
“Ahm… Martha…”
“Yes…” it was the first time he had called her by name.
“Do you… you…”
“I what?”
“Do you have… a…”
“What? Spill it already!!!”
“DO YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND?”
Boyfriend…
“Nothin’, just beware of your brother. But I guess it’s okay, he already has an almost girlfriend…”
She had to speak with her twin. And, forgetting Dave, she ran towards the school.
“What the…?”
She had left him without answer.
“Why does this only happens to me???”

Next Chapter:
Jack’s girlfriend and Martha’s feelings. The twin relation.

Author’s Note:
I’m back!!! I learned more things about the Butterfly Mystery Universe and other loads of things. Expect perfection, from now on! :)

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 9

It was the middle of October. The brown leaves had already fallen to the ground and the younger students spent their time making, with the leaves, that characteristic sound of autumn.
Martha was now in the schoolyard watching the seventh-grade playing. She had felt already she needed winter clothes, so she was wearing them. While rubbing her hands to warm them, she saw who she wanted to see. Mandy was heading for her.
Mandy didn’t say anything, though. Martha understood, she knew her sister like no one else. But Mandy, who was regarded as cool, was normally calm and quiet. However, today, she seemed agitated, something serious was bothering her: the nails she was biting, she had never had that behaviour.
Martha stayed quiet. Mandy had to tell her problems without asking for it. But she didn’t have to wait much more.
“This school is consumed by something evil. There is something strange. Some people are just too selfish to understand what is really going on. And the director won’t do anything…”
“Maybe he just doesn’t feel anything…”
“He’s not human, you say…”
Martha was embarrassed.
“Anyway, there are some mysteries behind this prestigious school.”
“Tu es doué pour sentir les choses…”
“Et tu es doué pour les découvrir…”
“Ok, sis, I’ll keep my eyes open. Take care, ok?”
Mandy smiled and raised her wrist to her. Martha raised it too and vanished inside the building.
“Oh, the brown leaves…” Mandy whispered.

Another class, Monday morning.
Martha was entering the classroom. The bell hadn’t rang it, it lasted ten minutes. But the students weren’t sharing a good ambiance.
In the middle of the room, everyone was yelling at each other. Discord was winning. As fast as she could, Martha grabbed the teacher’s reed and hit it in the board provoking a loud sound. Every student turned at her.
“Can you explain what the hell is going around here?”
Some were sorry, others seemed indignant with Martha’s intervention. But one was with a provocative smile.
“Wanna compete against me?”
Jessica, the stylish of class, blond hair and green eyes, and the most beautiful girl they had there was challenging Martha.
“What’s the competition about?”
“Class delegate.”
Martha gasped. No time for that. No, not since the talk with her sister.
“Who are the other participants?”
“Oh, just Greg, that dead fly…”
‘Greg?’
Greg, a little sized boy, using glasses, just like Martha, was reading a huge book in one side of the class. Martha never thought of him as one candidate but what choice did she had?
“Hey, Greg!”
He pretended he hadn’t heard a thing, surprisingly blushing. But after so much calling, he decided to give her attention.
“You wanna win the elections, right?” she asked.
“I’ve got no chance…”
She slapped him.
“You gotta believe in yourself! That is the only way to succeed. I’ve been observing you for a while…” he blushed again “And I know you have the capacities to win this thing. I support you, and I’ll convince other people that you are the best choice for our delegate. How about now? Still wanna give up?”
He stayed stunned at her. There was still hope, after all.
“Ok, missy, lets do this.”
Right in time. The teacher had just passed trough the door.
Each candidate had right to one speech. Jessica was first.
Martha had never being bored that way. Jessica was continuously checking her paper: she wasn’t speaking, she was reading. By the end of the paper, everyone clapped and cheered, the torture was over.
Greg’s turn. However, he didn’t seem wanting to speak. He then turned at her. She was smiling and raising her wrist at him. He smiled, not bothering with what the people around him could think. She was supporting him. That was enough.
Without any paper, he made his speech. The crowd’s heart was taken and caressed by him; the purity of words he had chosen was refreshing.
“…let’s not say what I should do but what we all can do. We can even change the world…”
‘That is true… I’ll find the mystery behind these walls…’
The crowd clapped with emotion. No need to say who won, that is obvious. Jessica was angered, the glassed one had won.
Greg spent the rest of the day following Martha and thanking her. In a way, it was funny, in other, it was a completely nuisance. They were now in front of Martha’s locker.
”What can I do in exchange?!!” he asked almost crying.
“For starting, you can-”
She was interrupted by a letter coming from inside the locker. Who was it from?

Next Chapter:
Mysterious letter leads to God, but who send it?

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 8

“What is this joke, Miss Williams?” William asked.
“I’ve discovered the culprit, and in…” she checked her clock “3 and a half minutes. I guess I’ll be staying here in the school bugging your work…”
“Spill it already!” he ordered “Who is the culprit?”
“Wait, I have some question for Miss Kant to answer.”
Julie was called and brought to the storage room.
“Miss Kant, I’ll be direct. How did you notice the robbery?”
“Well, I was checking the files and I noticed one was missing.”
“It’s kinda of weird, being checking these files, knowing they are the students’ files…”
“Well, we need to do that once a week.”
“So, how do you explain the chest was closed when we arrived here? The most normal thing you would do were call immediately the Security department, without worrying if it was open or close…”
“Well, I uhm… I didn’t want anything else to be stolen.”
“That is a response that I may accept but how do you justify that the thief stole exactly YOUR PROCESS?!!!”
“What?” William asked. The other boy was perplexed.
“Yes, Miss Kant discovered something incriminating and decided to hide it. Am I wrong,… Julie?”
“YOU STUPID BRAT, DON’T CALL ME JULIE!!!”
Julie fell to her knees.
“Yes, I did it. The idea of having a disciplinary process scared me; it was an obstacle for my entrance in the most prestigious universities in England. I had to do something…” then, Julie turned at Martha before being taken by the security department guards “You’ll pay, somehow…”
Martha stared sadly at her arrest to punish. It wasn’t good to make people suffer…

“Wow, I never thought an amateur would solve this case that easily.” William affirmed.
“That is your way to claim your defeat, isn’t it?”
“I NEVER SAID THE WAR WAS OVER!!!”
“Seesh, you’re such a bad loser…” Martha replied.
William was about to punch her when someone approached.
“So, how was the catch, chief?”
Rachel and Jammie, William’s secretaries, were waiting him.
“We have new business to treat, sir. Your help is needed.” Rachel replied.
William turned at Martha.
“Listen kid, don’t put yourself in troubles, it will be terrible for you.”
“Whatever you say… loser…”
Again, William’s wrist was stopped by his two assistants. Martha giggled while William was been carried by the two security agents.
“Hey, thanks…”
Martha looked at the speaker. It was that boy again.
“Thanks from what?”
“From what? If it wasn’t you, I would be now suffering punishment…”
“Forget that, you helped me too.”
“But…”
Martha put her finger in his lips.
“Shut up, the best thing you can do for me is to present yourself.”
He blushed and obeyed.
“I’m Dave Nicholson.”
Martha was now staring really concentrated at him, which made him blushed more.
“What are you doing?” he asked really embarrassed.
She exclaimed a scream of victory.
“Of course! I know you! You were the other boy that bumped me some weeks ago!”
“Yeah, I think so…”
‘I surely think so…’
“So, what were you doing to get that sweaty?”
Dave blushed again while trying to get the best way to explain her. However, she didn’t give him time.
“Oh, I’m super late! Bye, see you around!”
He waved at the flying butterfly…
‘I’ll definitely see you again…’

Thursday, oh, how did she hate Thursdays!!! At least it was the end of the day, it was some hours left.
This day seemed a little agitated, since she had seen an agglomerate of people in the corridor, next to the storage room. But the curiosity wasn’t enough to approach it.
“Hi, beautiful!”
Jennifer turned to the speaker.
“Oh, not you again…”
“Yes, it’s me, the irresistible Ted. So, how’s my beauty going?”
“Stop calling me that! We aren’t engaged now!”
“Bad mood, eh? Don’t worry, babe, I’ll fix it.”
He touched her face and brought her near to him.
“No, leave me alone!”
Jennifer turned away from Ted and bumped with someone in the corridor.
“Sorry, really sorry…” she apologised.
“That’s ok…”
Jen was stunned as her heart seemed wanting to go outside. Her stomach contracted and couldn’t thing with the speed of the heart. The boy…
“Dave! How you’re doing?” Ted asked.
“Pretty well, I guess. I need to go to the room now, homework to do. I’ll leave you and your love affair. And…” Dave turned at Jen “sorry about that. See you later!”
Jen saw the culprit of the high acceleration of her heart go away.
“Who is he?”
“Oh, he’s the guy who’s sharing room with me… So, where were we?...”
No, Jen wasn’t there anymore.
“These women, nowadays…”

Next Chapter:
Class trouble. This is the right choice.

Author’s Note:
This chapter is kinda of lame. I know, don’t blame me. This is supposed to be for kiddie girls but we don’t have any fan at that age. Anyway, enjoy the best you can and… comment!!!

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 7

The following days passed quickly. The work started blasting everyone, even teachers, and Martha wasn’t having time for anything else than studying. However, the two weeks had been useful to get to know other people and places. Like the three stylish. And here they were.
Tina, Meredith and Jane were the ones considered to be the most stylish in the whole college. Using their uniforms, they invented modern ways to use it. They weren’t known as the prettiest girls in the school, but they had reputation. They were now crossing the hall, the opposite side from Martha. At least, the three of them were to busy to worry with Martha. Loneliness. Martha had been alone for a long time now. Jack wasn’t in the same class, neither Jennifer, which whom she had created a special friendship, and her classmates already had their groups.
Her line of thoughts were interrupted by a loud discussion some metres away.
“I didn’t steal it, okay?”
“Don’t kid with me, you were too near to the closet.”
Martha approached the place from where all that noise was coming. A huge crowd was seeing the discussion.
“I did not do it!”
“So, who did it? You must have seen it.”
“I didn’t… wasn’t paying attention…”
“He didn’t do it… director…”
Martha had approached the scene and was now showing William, the director of the Security department, the accused clothes.
“See, he is sweaty. He must have come from a sport’s training. It would be weird to go steal something all sweaty, it would bring on suspicions, am I right?” Martha asked turning at the accused.
She felt they have known each other before, but she wasn’t able to know where. He was blushing, probably from surprise.
“Yes, you are right…”
“You were…” William, the director of the security department, was stunned “you visited us in the beginning of the school year!”
“Yeah, that’s right… My name is Martha Williams.”
‘Martha, that is a pretty name…’
“Who find something had been stolen?” Martha asked.
“That would be that girl over there…” Martha hurried to the ninth-grade girl. “Hey, what do you think you’re doing?” William enquired.
“I’ll find the culprit…” she answered.
Then she turned to the girl.
“Who has the keys to the closet?”
“I have been having them since I’m this week’s responsible. I only take them to shower and sleep. And since I had them this morning, the thief must have stolen it during my PE class.”
“Can I borrow them?”
The girl accepted, although she was worried about her reputation.
“What do you think you’re doing?” William asked.
“Solving the robbery.”
Then she noticed the boy she had saved was still watching the scene. His eyes perturbed…
He blushed hardly when noticing she was staring at him, and turned his eyes to the floor. Martha just continued her path to the closet.
Once there, she checked the place.
“What was stolen?” she asked William.
“Hey, kiddie, this is my job.” He threatened her.
“Let’s make a bet. If I solve this case in five minutes, you will let me intervene every investigation there is. Otherwise, if I’m not able, I’ll get out of this school and I’ll never see me again. Deal?”
He thought for a while.
“Deal. Five minutes, counting from… now.”
She had five minutes.
“So, what was stolen?”
“Hey, can’t tell you. You have to find out.”
She grinned at him.
“What if it was something from this old chest?”
William was stunned.
“How did you know?”
“Elementary…”
Martha used the keys to open the case while William was leaving the closet.
“Definitely, there isn’t much dust here; someone must have been searching here something.”
Martha pulled out the files and started reading them. Five minutes wasn’t enough…
“Need help?” the boy she had saved before asked.
She smiled at him surprised.
“Yeah, thanks. Do you know the name of the responsible?”
“Somehow, yeah. We’re in the same class, her name is Julie Kant. In fact, I think that she has volunteered for this kind of job, she wasn’t forced to do it…”
Martha, faster than anything, searched quickly for something. However, she wasn’t able to find it.
“Call William, I’ve solved this case out…”

Next Chapter:
The truth. How is he?

Author’s Note:
This is Butterfly Mystery’s true nature. From now on, you boys can read this stuff. It is all full of mystery and suspense.
I haven’t written BM for a long time (really long time) but here I am, ready for action. Now that I can’t go to the internet when I want, I found a way to replace it. Except fast work from me, for now on. Enjoy and comment.

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 6

“And this is the bathroom, that way the boy’s and this way the girl’s.”
Martha was being guided in the school by Emily, her school partner. Although Emily was a bit boring, she was sympathetic and made Martha comfortable.
“And this is the security department” she said pointing one door “if you have any problem of any kind you can talk to them. Let’s go inside so that you can meet the security agents!”
Once inside it, Martha was able to see the department. There were about 10 teenagers working on a desk or receiving other students. Emily took Martha to one of the desks. The student’s name was Jammie, which could be seen in his badge.
“Sorry, I’m leading this new student through the school. Could you present her the installations?”
“Sure follow me.” He said with enthusiasm.
He explained how they worked. Martha was excited. Besides treating people’s problems, they can also treat about little thefts. This interested Martha in particular.
“How can a simple student join your organisation?” Martha asked.
Jammie looked surprised.
“Well, there are a lot of exams you have to pass before entering. They are not easy, I must say. One of them-“
“There’s here outside people and I haven’t been warned?”
Martha looked at the speaker. He was an 11th grade student who was wearing a much greater uniform than Jammie.
“Oh, sorry chief. Girls, this is William Detroit, our director.”
William just smiled. He seemed nice, after all.
“Welcome to our department”
Martha thanked. Emily started chating again, but with Jammie.
“Where are you from?” William started.
“Liverpool. I’ve moved to Westminster because of my brother.”
“Nice to have you here. These days, almost no one comes here to visit, it is always nice to have other people. Oh! Please, come and meet Rachel. My secretary.”
Martha and William approach a girl sat in a desk working hardly.
“Rachel, this is…”
“Martha Williams”
“I’m Rachel Thompson. Welcome!” the 10th grade replied.

After all, it was a productive night. Martha had met many new people who she could trust in, ready to protect the school and the students. Emily had already left and Martha was just walking. She looked at the faces of the students around her: they were all really happy to be with each other. Maybe, this school was the right for Martha…
However, her thoughts were interrupted when she saw someone.
He was perfect. Perfect face, perfect body, perfect heart. Martha was petrified. The beautiful face, the light brown haired, the green eyed, passed through her. Somehow, all other people just disappeared, leaving Martha and The God. Then, he noticed her and smiled at her. She just felt her face hotter than the sun. And he passed, leaving the blushing girl behind.
‘What was that?’

Next Chapter:

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 5

“Who are you?”
“Oh, sorry, sis. This is Pauline, one of my classmates.”
Classmate? By the look in Jack’s eyes, she seemed more than just a classmate.
Martha wanted to stop there, sleep for a moment and realize it was all a dream, but that was simply impossible. Her eyes were the only part of her body that wanted to continue the torture. Martha saw. She saw Pauline giggling of something that Jack had said, both of them having fun.
‘No, he’s mine!’
She started running and did not stop until she got in her room. She noticed it was empty while trying to recover from her breath.
She felt really tired…
‘If only I could close my eyes….’

“Hey, Martha, wake up!”
She slowly obeyed.
“You’re almost late for classes!...” Jennifer replied.
‘Late for class? Nooooooooo!!!’
Faster than a thunder, she dressed up and managed to get out of the room before Jennifer. In fact, during her way to class, she was still dressing up. However, she could not stop thinking about her new mates’ reaction to a new student. What if they did not like her? What if she couldn’t make any friends?
Before she could prepare herself, she saw the class’s door in front of her. All she had to do was knock on the door. Why was that so difficult to do? It was missing strength? Something like that…
“You’re Miss Williams, right?” A teacher came from nowhere “Please enter…”
Martha was now in front of 21 following pairs of eyes. She felt really embarrassed.
“This is Martha Williams. She will be joining us from now on, so I hope you can all get along with her.”
From all of her expectations, she reality was the most surprising. After sitting in a table at the corner of the room, the others were always trying to talk to her, so that they could know her better.
“Hi, I’m Emily.”
“I’m Peter, but you can call me Pete if you want!”
“Welcome to our class!”
After all, it wasn’t so bad: her classmates were doing everything to make her comfortable in her new school.
And she managed to forget the horrible past events.

Next Chapter:
An excursion in school! More secrets to come!

Author’s note:
I did not understand but it seems that we had a break this week. Work harder, everyone! And comment as always!
I think I’m progressing because my ideas are becoming clearer. Please, give me your opinion!

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 4

5 minutes he said!... A half an hour has already passed… Martha was getting impatient. There was no clue about his brother.
‘Where can he be?’
Her thoughts were interrupted by someone who tripped over her.
“Excuse me…” he said “I’m just-“
“That’s ok… I think I’m not hurt.”
Martha opened her eyes. Another boy; this one staring at her. She felt really embarrassed.
“Sorry…” she started “I guess I… will be going now…”
Dave just stayed there, looking at the butterfly flying away. His heart had never beaten so fast.

Martha was just running. She really wasn’t expecting to meet a new guy that way, like movies and stuff.
“Hey, no running in the hallway!” Martha heard behind her. She turned at the speaker.
It was a 9th grade student with a superior look and delicate nose. Too delicate.
“I’ve never seen you here. I’m Diane, the school’s newspaper director. You are…?” she asked with indignation.
“Martha. I’m new here.”
“Have you written that on, George?”
“Yes,… sir…”
Martha noticed the so-called George. He was an average 9th grade student, always following Diane and her stupid orders. Martha wondered why…
“You are in this school because…” Diane attacked again.
“What do you have to do with my personal life? Back off!” Martha defended herself.
“Oh, we have a wild one here! Have you written down all?”
“Yes…”
“So, wild girl, have you noticed the size of the trouble you’re in if you don’t get along with me?” Diane asked in a provoking kind of way.
“Leave my sister, Diane” the voice saved Martha.
“Oh, it’s you, Jack O’Lantern. Anyway, we were leaving. I’ve goy work to do. Let’s go George…”
Diane left resigned but with a smile on her face.
“Jack O’Lantern?...”
“Never mind, sis. Diane thinks I’m mad.”
“She may be r-“
Martha’s reply was cut when noticing a female next to Jack.

Next chapter:
Who was next to Jack? Martha meets her new classmates.

Author’s Note:
I’m getting hopeless. Please comment or I’ll finish this story right now! Why are you so cruel? Chuif…

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 3

Martha was waiting. She had already unpacked and she was sat in her future bed. She was expecting the door to open in any second, so that she could meet her new roommate. But the door was really stubborn and did not want to move.
Martha felt bored. She started analysing her partner’s belongings. They were all coloured but awfully organized. There could be seen a scarf posted in the wall with a common name printed. Martha deducted this was her partner’s name: Jennifer. Martha advanced to Jennifer’s bed-side-table, where she noticed a picture frame. There were 3 girls in the photo, from different ages and similar between each other. This puzzled Martha. How could a top fashionable and pretty girl, have a photo frame with her siblings? The common was to have friends in that frame, not members of family!
“What are you doing?”
Martha jumped.
“AH, you scared me!”
“Sorry,” she seemed distant and sad “but who are you?”
“I’m your new room partner, Martha. You are Jennifer, I suppose?...”
“Yes…”
Indeed, Martha’s suspicions were right. Besides her roommate’s name being Jennifer, her beauty was something that could make jealous any girl, not to mention the boys… and she had a great fashion sense. But she seemed too sad, alone.
“Are you okay? You seem sad…”
Jennifer lost control. She exploded in tears.
“Why is the world so unfair?!” she cried.
Martha put Jennifer’s head on her lap and waited patiently. Eventually, she stopped crying and sat on the floor, her back to Martha.
“Why are you comforting me?” Jennifer asked.
“I care about everyone.”
“You are the first person that cares about me in this school. I’ve just entered yesterday…”
“I guess we’re equal. I entered today…”
“Really?”
“Yeah…” Martha answered.
Then, they chatted. Martha got to know why Jennifer was here, and her solitude feeling as well as many other things. It seemed that she had done her first friend.
“I’ve got to go now, my brother is probably waiting for me to show me the school.” Martha replied glancing at the clock.
“Ok, see you later.”
“Yeah”
Jennifer saw Martha running to the hall. Thoughts were running on her head.
“An angel…” she whispered.

Next Chapter:
First meeting. Prince charming without glasses. New enemies.

Author’s Note:
Ok, I know this story doesn’t have many fans but I’m still updating. I hope I can finish this quickly.

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 2

“Mine is 86, what about yours?”
“21” Martha answered.
Martha and Mandy were walking in the dormitory’s corridor. The others students did not seem to notice the two new mates: they were too busy with their own problems.
“We’re here, 86!”
They were about to enter when…
“I don’t care, just do it, or you’ll be sorry!” An angered girl got out of the room.
The two sisters looked at the untidy room.
It was a mess, but the girl inside it looked worse. She had make-up all over her face and seemed to follow every mode rule.
“Are you Trinity Gael?” Mandy asked reluctantly.
“Yeah, sooo?!”
Martha was scared. The little one was arrogant!
“Sooo, is this your room?”
“Yeah, so what?”
“Look you…, I want my sister to feel good in this school, so do not behave like some kind of stupid girly!” Martha shouted.
The other looked stupefied as Mandy was already unpacking.
“See you later, sis”
“Bye…” Mandy replied.
“What was that?” Trinity asked.
“My sister…”

Next Chapter:
Martha’s room partner… Strange girl…

Author’s Note:
Ok, the shortest chapter I’ve written so far… The next will be short too. I guess shorter chapters are better to read. Please comment!

Butterfly Mystery - Chapter 1

“Men, I can’t believe we gotta do a History work next week!”
“If this is the beginning, what will be the end?”
“Please, shut-”
“Hey, dude, what’s wrong?”
Jack was petrified. He was looking at a blond-haired girl with dark green eyes, walking in the corridor, talking to a 7th grade female. Someone like his twin sister.
“What are you doing here???”

“Oh, bro, I’ve missed you so much!” Mandy said as hugging her older brother.
“I’ve missed you too, Mandy. So, why are you here?”
“Well,” the blond haired started “we were missing you and I guess our parents need some time together.”
“Oh, Martha…” Jack hugged her.
She hugged in return.
“Life in Intern College isn’t easy, you don’t that?”
“We’ll pull through.” Martha replied convinced.
“Hey, dude, are you presenting me your siblings or not?”
Martha looked at the speaker. ‘Oh my gosh!”
“Martha, Mandy, this is my best mate, Brian. Brian these are…”
Martha did not hear more. She was just staring at Brian wishing he was not looking at her as she couldn’t take her eyes of him.
Brian belonged to the athletic type of boys. He had light grey hair: ‘Have he painted it?”, blue eyes and a great fashion sense. She felt discouraged. How could she compete with, she supposed, a bazillion girls using horrible glasses in her face? She couldn’t take them, or she would stumble for sure.
After she could escape, Brian was in front of her.
“Hey, what are you staring at?”
“Martha?” Jack asked concerned.
“Oh, sorry, Martha Williams.” She tried to wake up.
“Brian Thomas.” She couldn’t wake up…
“Martha, here my friend Brian is the best in our class.”
“I understand why…”
“You do? I thought you would start hating Brian”
“Why would I hate him?”
“Oh, have you let go you paranoia about pursuing guys that take best marks than you?”
Martha woke up.
“I’m the best…” she growled.
“Are you? I don’t think so.”
“Come on, Martha. Let’s go. I want to check out my room.”
Martha was dragged by her collar by Mandy still growling at Brian.
“Strange sister you’ve got, men…”
“Absolutely”

Next Chapter:
Rooms!!! We meet Martha room’s partner! But enemies aren’t over…

Author’s Note:
Ok, this is the first chapter. If you compare Fifteen Journey to this, it is almost the same writing so think of it as a personal identification.
Another thing, this story, unlike Fifteen Journey, is based in many stories that already exist. You have been warned!
Please comment!!!

Butterfly Mystery - Summary

Martha is a girl like no other until she moves to a new school. Besides having to do new friends, many troubles appear during her first year. Will she be able to save the ones she love? To unfold ancient secrets? And survive her own problems?

Hi, it's me, Fipa!
The reason why I am writing in a new colour is that I'm creating a new story. I guess Fifteen Journey is more for boys than for girls, because it will get violent in no time. So, I'm writing from now on Butterfly Mystery. I'll leave the title for your imagination as well as the summary.
This story is shorter than Fifteen Journey, which means that I'll rarely update.
The main character is Martha and I'll use her point of view many times. This story is mainly for girls, but even a boy, I guess you'll like this story in the end.
Wish me luck!
