Nadine pulled Kyla outside. "What the fuck is going on here?"
"I was about to ask the same thing, just without all the swearing," Kyla said.
"All the swearing? What the fuck are you talking about? If anything, you swear a whole lot more than I do," Nadine said.
"Never! I'm not like that. But you ..." she started, looking over Nadine's new look. Gone was the conservative religious girl look. In its place was a black T-shirt with the logo of some old rock band on it, a pair of ripped jeans, and a pair of worn boots. Her hair was shaved on the sides of her head, and the hair on top was kind of spiky and dyed black with green tips. She had a nose piercing and a small gauge in one ear. Her make-up was a bit heavy, but not too slutty (still, the old Nadine never wore any make-up, so ...), and she wore a necklace, the pendant being a small silver skull. "What happened to you?"
"Nothing! I'm the same as I've always been!" Nadine yelled. She was frustrated. Nothing made any sense. It was like she was in an episode of the "Twilight Zone"! Everything was upside down and wrong!
