It was a quiet day in Malanda or at least in the bubble it was. Iris was in her cottage looking out of her bedroom window .She eyed the bubble reciting what her teachers and parents said since she was small "the air outside the bubble is toxic" .
She believed this for her whole life and tommorow was her 13th birthday.
Iris is a fair skinned little girl, her hair is always in a braid which looked good with her dirty blonde hair ,she was curvy which she was paranoid about even though it didn't matter anyway,she has freckles on her nose bridge and high cheeks
"Time for school, iris"her mom called out.
Iris got dressed straight away ,she could not wait for school since they were talking about "the long war and when it will be over "that day.
She ran downstairs wearing a black crop top ,jeans and red sneakers
"If your wearing black and red ,don't forget to put on your wings"mom joked about how she looked like a lady bug
"Well at least I don't wear a bed sheet as a dress"iris said smartly
Her mother went white"just go to school,breakfast is on the table "she replied sternly.
Iris ran to the kitchen .she thought to herself while tucking into some pancakes and slurping some milk"I hope she makes pancakes every day"
She finally finished her breakfast and rushed out the door to her bike ,which she had "borrowed" from her sister who had gone to fight in the war some years ago.
She cycled to school ,it was 9:01 she was one minute late .
She cycled the city fast so she couldn't make out the buildings well but she saw the post office,which always had a smell of stamps as you past it,
And there was the flower shop ,Mrs Poseey loves her violets and you can catch a glimpse of the them in the window as you turn the corner ,
Iris finally made it to school ,no one was out side the school .she looked at her watch it was 9;05 ,the news is going to airing in one minute.She got off her bike and ran into class ,she was out of breath "I'm sorry I'm late "she called out to the teacher
"Shut up ,chubby "replys Jackson (average douche)
"As Jackson was trying to say is..please be quiet ,the news is coming on"the teacher says sternly to Jackson
"Welcome...!!!! To News in a bubble ,I hope you had a GREAT DAY...Today we are talking about the Malandian war or as people on the streets call it The Blind War"the little TV boomed out of its little speaker
