'''Pollination Technician #9 Smith'''- PT9 used to be one of the alien pollination technicians. Once he retired, he started a family. He has had the occasional disagreement with General Buzz Grunt, but Johnny and Tank hold the main Grunt-Smith feud.
'''General Buzz Grunt'''- the father of Ripp and Tank. He's had some disagreements with PT9 Smith, yet no one knows why.
'''Tank Grunt'''- the older brother of Ripp, He's a bit of a bully, and has beaten up Ripp multiple times.
==Chapter 1: Why?==
A lot of people would think I would be permanently depressed or reckless considering I've lost my parents. That's not the case. I'm very shy, and I prefer to stay out of people's way. People wonder why I took Johnny and Ripp under my wing. Johnny is constantly bullied, but he does the right thing and laughs it off. His parents are fully aware of the situation. Ever since we were 12, he hasn't been able to escape the bullying. Six years later, nothing's changed.
Line 93 ⟶ 97:
Oh no... no, no, no... this can't be... this explains why Lyla lost contact with Ripp... poor Ripp... I've got to tell him, but, I don't know if I can! I feel sick. Is Olive a murderer? No, no, maybe some of the extra gravestones from Strangetown Cemetery were moved here? But I haven't actually been to Strangetown Cemetery. I haven't visited my parents' graves. Now that I think of it, the look of confusion on Ripp's face when I asked him where the cemetery was explains it- there wasn't a ''public'' cemetery. I think this is the cemetery... Before I know what I'm doing, I'm on my feet and running to the Grunt household.
I'm outside Ripp's house. I pick up a small stone and toss it at Ripp's window. Nothing. I throw another stone. A few seconds later, I see the window open and Ripp's head pop out
"Ripp." I say "could you let me in? I have something important to tell you."
Line 99 ⟶ 103:
Ripp groans. "Couldn't it wait until tomorrow at school? My dad won't be too impressed if one of my friends just turns up in the middle of the night."
I feel like crying. It's not like Ripp to not listen to me. "Ripp! You are going to let me in otherwise I'll
I'm sitting on the dining table with my trouser leg rolled up. Ripp is in the kitchen, getting some medical supplies. Tank is giving me the evil eye, and the General is looking exhausted and slightly irritable. "Som Ophelia," he says quietly "what was this important thing you had to tell us?" I take a deep breath and wonder how to reply. Ripp returns with a medical kit. He takes out a bottle of disinfectant and starts to dab my knee with a cotton ball. "Well, sir," I start "I couldn't get inside my house because I forgot my keys, so I decided to look at some of the gravestones in my aunt's back garden, even when I wasn't supposed to."
"And...?" the General questions.
"There was this one stone with- ow!" The disinfectant starts to sting. My leg kicks out and it slips off the table I hit Ripp in the stomach, right where his heavy bruising was. "Sorry, Ripp..." I say, feeling stupid. I continue. "The stone said... "Here lies... Lyla Grunt." Silence. Tank looks shocked. Ripp looks like he's going to cry. The General looks guilty. I guess he's just remembered about the messy divorce he went through. I can here rasping breathing and Ripp has collapsed to the floor. His asthma has kicked in again. Tank dashes off to get his inhaler. I leap off the table to reassure him. But there's nothing I can really do. I feel so guilty.
