The Cigarettes
A week had passed since Katie's demise, and Fallon was getting bored. Sure, it was easy to kill someone quick and destroy evidence, but it wasn't as fulfilling as a long term elimination, such as when she had bullied Lacey into suicide. It was more fulfilling as it had taken longer and required more effort from Fallon. She had an idea on how to get rid of her next rival. She would get her expelled permanently. Noah could never love someone who got expelled. It would take a while, but would be fulfilling to Fallon. She could always kill other rivals as well. Fallon needed a goal, and getting her rival expelled would be it. Now all she needed was a rival.
Her rival came in the form of Penelope, one of Fallon's classmates in class 8. From what Isabel had told her, Penelope had been talking to Noah. That was unacceptable. Fallon needed to get her expelled. She knew that teachers were doing a check for cigarettes and other contraband that afternoon, and it gave her an idea to not only build her own reputation, but damage Penelope's reputation with the teachers. The check was due after lunch, so she had until then to get cigarettes.
At lunch, Fallon went to the back of school by the bins, a favourite spot for a group of smokers. Fallon approached the girls towards the end of lunch break.
"We have inspection after lunch, by the way." A look of horror spread across the faces of all the girls as they turned to look at her. "Tell you what. Give me your cigarettes and I'll get you new boxes tomorrow." All of the girls started giving Fallon their cigarette boxes, each one containing a couple of cigarettes. She walked away to find Isabel to get a lighter.
Back in the class, the room was empty. Penelope's bag was placed on her desk, meaning she'd been in the class before. Penelope was a goody two shoes, so this didn't surprise Fallon. She had about 3 full boxes of cigarettes and a lighter from the smokers and Isabel. She put them into Penelope's bag and sat down at her own desk. She had destroyed the other empty boxes, so she couldn't get into trouble for having them.
When the teacher came in for inspection, Fallon wasn't nervous. She had nothing to fear, nothing to hide. Fallon confidently showed the teacher her contraband free bag, then the teacher, satisfied with not finding anything, moved on to the next student. Eventually, the teacher came to check Penelope's bag. She opened the bag and pulled out the cigarettes and lighter.
"This is completely unacceptable." The teacher went off in a rant about cigarettes and the dangers of smoking. Penelope stood with a shocked facial expression. How did the cigarettes get into her bag? She didn't know, she didn't place them there. Fallon just sat at her desk and watched Penelope's reputation crack. Penelope was given detention every night for the rest of the week. It wasn't the outcome she wanted, but it would do for now.
