The Double Life: Chapter 2-The Breakout

I ran to my dorm room at top speed and slammed the door. My first

day so far couldn’t have gone worse. So I’m in 9th grade and I just

acted like a 3rd grader with a crush. Xiaxer was so effortlessly cool

and I on the other hand acted like a bumbling idiot! Will this ever

get any easier? We get private dorms at Gamorath Academy for

our needs particularly feeding. If you get my drift. It’ s still

decorated like it was when I as in 8th grade , with a vintage vanity

that I absolutely adore, a four poster bed and zebra print curtains. I

sat my backpack down on the wood floor, topple onto my bed and

close my eyes.

“ Mel wake up!”

I blearily open my eyes to my one and only friend Zoe shaking me

violently. Who somehow always lacks to knock on my doors. Zoe

had her strawberry blonde hair pulled into a side pony tail and had

on a colorful plaid dress, not to mention fushia pumps.

“ Jeez you look like a bulldozer ran you over!” Zoe exclaimed.

“Thank-you for that commitment.”I retorted grumpily.

“We are gonna be late for class. Hurry up and wash your face.”

“Wash my face?”

I looked in the mirror. Wow I did look like I’d been run over. My

mascara was smeared all over my face, due to crying on unaware. I

slumped over to my vanity and pulled open the drawer with

makeup remover, dabbed it on and scrubbed away.

“So what did I miss?”I asked.

“Supernatural Bodies and Reflexes with Mr. Cornelias. “ Zoe said

matteraffactly. Actually it was pretty good! Did you know some of

our kind can go invisible?”

“That would come in handy. Cassandra is going to kill me for

sure!”I cried as I put the bottle away.

“But your un-dead! You can’t die!”Zoe said.

I looked at her blankly. Then we dissolved into a fit of giggles.

We came to the of our next class History of Vampires and Humans

by Mrs. Williams. She had midnight black hair, almost never

smiled and had glasses that always slid down her nose.

We rushed into the room and found seats side by side. Mrs.

Williams looked down her nose at us disapprovingly. If looks could

kill!

“ Ladies and gentlemen I have some rather disturbing new.” She

said.

The chatter died down.

“ As of today the vampire prison ‘Avid’ in New York has been

bombed and many prisoners have escaped. We will be having high

security on the Academy and your not aloud to leave the premises

before notifying your mentor and they will take the necessary

precautions. “

A gasp went through the room and wide eyed vampires looked

around at each other.

“ Oh my gosh”. Said Zoe under her breath.

ALright, I was gonna review the first chapter, but this one is here now. So Im gonna try and meld the two together

Alright, so, What I noticed in the first chapter was that you're MC is Mary Sue. Think about it, she's pretty and perfect, yet she hates her life. Unfortunately, she sort of reminds me of Bella from the Twilight series, especially in your first few paragraphs.

Now, in this chapter, What I noticed is that it's sort of cliche. It really, also reminds me of the House of Night series, where the school is invaded. Also, you're writing is pretty flat. I feel no relation to your MC at all. What you should do is add emotion, add lots of emotion, and use words to give the reader a scene, not just tell the reader.

Hopefully that helps
