the recruiting

For a few weeks after the fight everything was normal, Sophie and Amy were getting on fine and Sasha left them alone. Sophie and Amy never went out to the shops again as it didn’t feel safe. Then one day at school Sasha decided to strike again.

Amy and Sophie were sitting in the cloak room (they were not meant to but in was a lot warmer than outside and no one had ever seemed to notice they were there) talking about what they wanted to do when they grew up, when suddenly Sasha burst in to the room with her two most loyal friends - Zoë and Ashley. Zoë and Ashley were the best fighters in the school so Amy and Sophie kind of guessed what was going to happen next.

“my mother stopped my pocket money and grounded me for two weeks for what you did in the shop, Sophie.” said Sasha threateningly

“It was more your fault then mine” replied Sophie keeping very calm “though I do agree I shouldn’t have hit you, but you were threatening me so I did.” While Sophie was saying this Sasha, Zoë and Ashley were just staring at her with utter contempt.

“do not answer me back, Sophie” snapped Sasha “just give me all your money and I’ll leave you alone”

“No” answered Sophie “I’m not giving you anything”

“you’d better else you’re gonna get it” said Sasha walking nearer to Sophie

“Just leave her alone!” yelled Amy suddenly “What have you got against her?”

“Looks like the mouse can talk” said Sasha laughing sarcastically “get them both gang” she added quickly. Zoë and Ashley lunged forward as if to thump Amy and Sophie, but they fell forward because Amy and Sophie who both had excellent reflexes had dodged out the way and were now standing on the other side of the room. Zoë and Ashley clambered up now really angry and charged back towards Amy and Sophie who this time moved out of they way and flipped Zoë and Ashley over on to their backs. They then held them down to prevent further attacks

“just go and leave us alone” said Sophie whilst struggling to hold Ashley down

“why would we do that?” asked Sasha standing above Sophie with a bucket of water.

“so you don’t get in to trouble” replied Sophie

“not a good enough answer said Sasha throwing the bucket of water over Sophie. While Sophie was gasping after having the bucket of water thrown over her Ashley had stood back and was now launching an attack at Sophie meanwhile Sasha was targeting Amy. Sophie didn’t managing to move in time before Ashley hit her, so now she was pinned to the ground by Ashley who was a lot bigger and heavier than Sophie. Ashley began twisting Sophie’s arm round and that was how Sophie managed to gather up all her strength and twist out from under Ashley. She then twisted round and pulled her arm free before spinning round and hitting Ashley in the face who now looked stunned that Sophie had escaped her. Amy meanwhile was trying to hold Zoë down while Sasha was attacking her. Sophie then launched herself at Sasha who she managed to knock to the floor and hold down, it was then Mrs Stellton walked through the door.

“WHAT is going on in here” she screamed

“Amy and Sophie attacked us” said Sasha whimpering

“Amy and Sophie to the head’s office now!” Mrs Stellton yelled. Sophie and Amy clambered up off the floor and left the room as Mrs Stellton was saying to her daughter and her friends “I am so sorry, are you all okay?”.

Sophie and Amy arrived at the head teacher office and knocked on the door. “enter” said an familiar voice. Amy and Sophie went in to the room and were greeted not by the head teacher but by Kate! Where is Mr Keens (the head teacher) asked Sophie.

“oh, he’s just in the staff room, I was called in because one of the home’s children fell over in the play ground and broke their arm” explained Kate “please sit down girls and tell me what you two monkeys have done” Sophie and Amy sat down and then all went black for Sophie.
