Disappearance – Chapter One
Hello, my name is Myra. You may not know me very well, but you will soon know more than you want to know about me.
I am in your English class; I sit at the back, in the corner. I’m shy, but if you let me, my colours will show through.
I live with my mum and dad, and I share the second floor with my sister Tanni. She’s a year younger than me, but we are extremely close.
My room faces the backyard, which gives me a full view of the mountains that surround our town. Sometimes I sit on the roof and stare up at the mountains. My sister tried to climb up and join me, but fell down, fracturing her arm in the process. I was punished by 6 weeks of complaining, plus I had to clean my room.
My room is very dark. Mum doesn’t like it, she thinks I will get depressed or something like that.
My bed (which is a waterbed I might add, whereas Tanni gets a normal one) is covered in purple and black pillows, with a ripped quilt. Dad wants me to get another one, but I have had this one for so many years, I have grown quite fond of it. A big window takes up most of my southern wall, which is covered in thick red curtains during the day.
I have a huge set of drawers that hold most of my clothes (the others are scattered around everywhere else). It is made out of very old mahogany wood. On top of it sits my CD player (which has an iPod jack).
CD’s scatter the floor, in piles all over my room. The artists vary.
My sister’s room, I do not go in. It is pink. Enough said.
Enough about family because you need to know about me.
I have blonde hair and green eyes; I have light blue streaks in my hair. Oh yeah, my skins blue. Just joking.

I scribbled out most of the sentences, and then decided to start again.
We were meant to write an introducing letter about who we were to the new English teacher, but yet again I had trailed off the subject. I started again, thinking to myself, ‘nice and short Myra.’
Hello, I am one of your new students. I’m quiet, but once you get to know me, you’ll wish I shut up.
I kind of ramble on a lot, and had a whole page of information of school and life, everything in between, and more for this assignment, but I didn’t think you would like it, so I started again.
My name is Myra. I’m sixteen years old, and live half an hour away. I drive to school everyday, and give my sister a lift too.
Since I turned sixteen, mum and dad thought it would be nice to give me some independence. Tanni and I live together on the second floor of the house.
We can do whatever we want, as long as we are ‘responsible’. This includes paying a cut of the bills and cleaning up (especially after parties).
That’s enough about me for now though, you’ll figure out the rest yourself.
Love Myra xxx.

I handed up my messy report to the teacher – Ms Swaine I believe her name was, and packed up.
I rose when the bell went, and headed towards the maths building.
“Hey,” shouted out someone behind me. I turned and smiled, it was Nikolai. “Hey!” I replied, the smile still on my face.
Nikolai had been my best friend since I could remember. We grew up together, and were practically brother and sister.
We walked together holding hands; everyone thought we were going out, but we weren’t, it just felt nice. We parted our separate ways as we hit the maths buildings, and I walked into my class. Of course Bianca was already there, glaring at me as I entered.
“So you hold hands and hug but you’re not going out at all?” She questioned mockingly, continuing her glare.
I replied back bitterly, “I’ve told you a thousand times, we’re not going out, we’re just friends,” and walked towards my usual seat in the back corner.
The lesson flew by; we had another relief teacher who didn’t know what they were doing. Before I knew it, it was lunch already here.
“Hey!” Nikolai exclaimed as I walked up to him. He wore a huge grin, one that always meant trouble.
“Uh oh,” I replied, what had he done now? He had a bad habit of setting bins on fire and sneaking into relief lessons so he didn’t have to go to his own classes.
“I had Mr. McCoff again as a relief.”
I cracked up laughing, Nikolai just loved to anger Mr McCoff, and Mr McCoff hated Nikolai. “How long did you last in his class?” I asked, knowing his record was two minutes.
“Oh about five minutes,” he said with a mischief smile, “What you getting to eat?”
We continued on our small chit chat all lunch time, only stopping to eat or to glare at Bianca and her herd of skanks. When the bell finally went, we left to continue our gossip session.
School basically ends after lunch, with only voluntary subjects to go to, unless you want tutoring. Who wants that?
I groaned as I realised it was my turn to cook dinner tonight. “Want to come over for tea tonight?” I asked Nikolai, hoping he was free, he cook a lot better than me.
“Yea, sure, but you owe me,” he replied. I usually owed him something small, like forging a note, or doing his homework for him. “Deal!” I said as I shook his hand.
This is the first chapter of my new story Dissapearance.
Obviously, these chapters are alot longer than my other ones i have written, and so it may be a while till chapter 2 comes out :S
Its not very exciting, but it is an introduction. Hope you like, and please comment :)
