Snippet #2318918

"I can't wait to see their faces!" Danni squealed under her breath with a slight cha cha cha step of excitement, her heels clunked on the cheap wood floor of the school gym. Bright blue eyes scanned the corner of the gym where she was set up, her works of art displayed neatly on home made square white columns.

Bittersweet Symphony rang through the speakers of the small radio she had set up by the hors d'oueuvres table. She didn't skimp on the food either, even splurged on a bottle of champagne. Of course, she would be the only one celebrating at her art show. Danni poured herself a glass and ceremoniously dropped a small strawberry in, laughing slightly as the bubbles fizzed and oozed over the rim.

The only thing that could make this more perfect would be an actual art gallery, but this low budget town would never spend the cash to put one in. Doesn't matter though, today's the day, today is when she gets her last laugh and high tails it on out of here.

The art works displayed were of the citizens of this town, more specifically, her tormentors. They were an pencil and paper renditions of those assholes and their gross flaws; drug use, bulimia, alcohol use. Danni was going to show this town just how ugly they really were. She invited the whole town for her going away party.

"Any minute no-" A loud and deafening boom disrupted Danni's reverie. She was thrown forward and heard crashing and breaking glass around her before everything went black.

The uplifting tunes of The Verve echoed into her darkness, slowly bringing her to. A groan escaped her lips, followed by a cough as the dust particles of debris assaulted her throat. "Figures." She mumbled as she slowly and painfully rose to her feet, pushing wood and plywood from her body. She could already feel the welt forming on her shin as she hobbled towards the source of the violent intrusion.

"What the hell?" Beneath the giant hole in the ceiling was a pod, seemingly unharmed despite having crashed through the cieling of the building. That was NOT a meteor, it was too polished. Danni raised a hand towards as she limped closer, only to feel immense pain shoot up her arm. "Gah!" Blue eyes widened as they lay witness to the large splinter of wood impeded in her forearm. "Shit!" She'd have to take care of this.
