Umbrella Academy Jennifer Incident Novels & Stories

Jenny immediately acted like a good sister trying to defend Cynthia’s reputation, “I was wrong before. I didn’t see anything last night. Cynthia should still be asleep in her room. I’ll go get her up.” She was so good at her acting that she even put down her spoon and tried to leave the dining hall. Jenny just stood up. A figure appeared out of the blue in front of her and dumped the pumpkin soup on her head. “Ahhhhhhhh!” Jenny was so taken aback by the sudden attack that she couldn’t even see who had done it. Alice got a good look at the attacker. It was a strange, cool-looking girl clutching a sword. “Who are you?!”

I turned back slowly, placing my hands behind me as the plank slipped from her grasp. I winced as pain shot through my legs, my eyes squeezing shut as I fought back tears. Everything blurred around me, but I focused on the cold carpet of grass beneath me. “Seriously, Miranda? You think you belong here? Elite Academy? How the hell did you even afford this school?" She scoffed. "As far as I know, your family’s wallet is as empty as a theater after the final curtain.” Laughter erupted around me, a cruel chorus that made my skin crawl. Jenny’s voice rang out, dripping with sarcasm, but it only deepened my anger. I didn’t find it funny at all.
