Book trailers are a tricky thing. When they're done badly, they're a little cringey and vaguely embarrassing. But when they're done right, they're AWESOME.
And because we have the incomparable Mr Tom Percival working on our trailers, we pretty much fit into the awesome category every single time.
I love the fact that it's time to release this. We have other stuff yet to be released/announced, such as what EXACTLY the Theatre of Shadows is and how it can involve everyone around the world. We're always trying to find ways to include our far-flung readers in the fun, and I think we've come up with something special.
But enough from me... Behold the awesome.

(Hey Dugz!)
No idea what so ever. That's fine though. Easy to find out.
(The furniture on this bed is scrappy)
(I would say Chester suits you better.
commandersophiakeating@gmail.com
It is original.)
(Hey Sil!!!!
The 3 things my kindle predicts me to say after Hey
Hey El
Hey Sophia
Hey Sil
Wow. Guess I talk to you guys a lot! :)))
(I agree. Chester over Agnes.)
Claire: Okay, how do you suggest we find out?
(It seems you do, Dugglyn.)
(Does your kindle still predict me if you say '*glares at' or whatever it was?)
(HAHA!!!
*laughs carzily at Madison*
I TOLD YOU!!!!! IT'S CHESTER NOT AGNES!!!!!!! I HAVE ASKED MANY PEOPLE!!!!)
(Dugglyn, was there a reason why you wished to have my email?)
(Glares at Silente
Yep! :))) but it's not the top choose anymore. It now is...
Glares at the end of the world.
Yeah... weird.)
(And DugTC forgives Sil.
She's not good at staying mad. Way to forgiving..
(Like me the author...))
We're in a mall. We look for the bitchy girls. Even the not bitchy girls have watered down bitchy girl opinions.
(No Sophia, just in case I want to email you! I have a bunch of Bloglandians emails!
*realizes how stalkerish that sounds*
*bit it's not!*
*not on purpose...*)
(*gasp*how DARE the end of the world take my place!)
Claire: *looks at Silente* I've found one!
(As long as you do not spam me with refried beans, I am fine with that, Dugglyn.)

(*really wants to spam Sophia with refried beans now*
*looks at time*
Wait what?! When did it get past 11?!
Shoot...
I gtg... sheep.
Pie! Talk to you guys my morning! :))))
(good. *nods*)
Well done. They come a dime a dozen. Try pick up what they're talking about while we walk past. And don't draw their attention.
(If you spam me I will mute you and spam you back ten times worse.
Goodbye, Dugglyn.)
Claire: Currently she's talking about how we should not draw attention to ourselves.
*stops and glares* oh haha. Aren't you funny.
Claire: *giggles* You thought I was being serious! There's a bitch behind you.
Bitch: Excuse me?
Claire: We're searching for bitches.
*looks behind her*
Hi. Ignore her.
Bitch: Fuck off. I'm not ignoring shit. *slaps Claire*
Claire: *catches her wrist and turns it back on itself, forcing her to her knees with her finger aiming at her eye* You know I could kill you with your own finger, right? We want to ask you a few questions.
*facepalm*
Yes. This isn't drawing attention in the slightest. Well done you're so good at this!
*looks down at the bitch*
Sorry. My sister is a bit...you know. Anger problems.
*grabs Claires arm and hisses in her ear* this will not help when you do get into school you just got yourself on this Bitches hit list let go before the bloody pack defends upon us!
*Walks in*
*Looks at Sil, Claire and the Bitch*
*Walks out*
(*hugs Deathy* ?)
(Apologies, technology issues.)
Claire: Okay. Stealth attacks next time. Got it.
*lets the bitch go* Hi. My name is Tara.
Bitch: *pulls Claire's hair and slaps her*
(They're undercover. Hello, Elleni.)
"You make me so angry sometimes, Dannielle." ~ My sister after I explained to her about what's going on in my mind. About wanting to die. About everything.
"Bullshit!!" ~ My sister.
"You're just using them to get attention!!" ~ My sister.
"Well, I'm sorry that I want to die!! I'm sorry that I want to unburden you all with my presence!! I'm sorry that I'm such a disappointment to you all the time!! I'm trying to fix it... They're helping me... But I only see one way out of this..." ~ Me...
"LIKE SHIT!! You're just-" ~ My sister as I walked away to end the argument...
(There is a murderer hiding in a school. How are you, Elleni?
If it was me, Rose, I'd have punched her by now. Bullshit sums up what she is saying quite well.)
(I may be distant for a moment.)
(hello my darlings *yawns*
*curls up into a ball*)
(tired...but comfy. Im in my Pikachu onesie, how are you?)
(I am depressed and a little pissed off, thank you.)
(*huggles Soph* oh baba)
(
(I don't hug and I do not know what a baba is.)
('baba' is what I call people when theyre sad. and it isn't a hug, its a huggle)
(I don't huggle, either. What does baba actually mean?)
(I don't know exactly, its just a thing my family says)
(I see.
It is amazing how wording of a sentence can cause people to react differently.)
(*nods* I guess. what you up to?)
(When I say average, nothing happens. When I say depressed and pissed off, people feel sorry for me which I do not want them to, despite that and average meaning the same.
Nothing. Absolutely nothing and it irritates me. Yourself?)
(im listening to ACDC, reading on wattpad, talking to you and turning my dogs ears inside out)
(Which AC/DC song?
Why are you turning your dog's ear inside out?)
(you shook me all night long
im inspecting them. I want to be a vet so I carry out these little practise runs)
(I like Shoot To Thrill.
I see. Is the dog fine with it?)
(cool ^^
My dog is calm...and half asleep on my lap. He really doesn't have a choice but to let me do it, otherwise he has to find himself a new bed)
(Have you heard it?
I see. I like the way you think.)
(sorry I fell asleep..)
*punches the bitch in her perfect little nose*
(Welcome back, Silente. *hugs her*)
Bitch: *staggers, clutching a bloody nose* You'll pay for this! I will make your lives a living hell!
(*hugs Soph back* sorry for falling alseep..)
*slips an arm around Claire's shoulders in a half hug*
Come on..lets go.
*turns their backs to the bitch, walking in the direction of the uniform shop*
(kay Soph and thanks. Sil, how art thou this morning?)
(I am back but I will be distant.)
Claire: *nods* Let's.
Bitches seem to like short skirts. But we won't dress like bitches, right?
(Im good thanks flick, you?)
God no. Trousers for me. Maybe a skirt for you.
*drops the arm when they're out of the bitches sight*
(I am good. im reading this book called Hush Hush. it is great)
Claire: Why should I wear a skirt?
(Hush Hush is a good book. I hope you're enjoying it! Have you read the Shiver trilogy?)
Cause you just started a problem so you're getting punished with a skirt. Plus, maybe it'll make you look cute and make people want to protect you instead of kill you.
(I am enjoying it loads ^^ I haven't yet, but I bought the first book. I have so many books on my reading list)
(What's on your reading list?)
(I want to finish the hush hush series, the maze runner, teardrop, the scool for good and evil....crap I have loads to read.)
(I really liked Shiver trilogy. I found hush hush a bit boring by the third book. The maze runner, teardrop and school for good and evil I haven't read, although the last one I have been looking at. To just suggest a few other books;
MORGANVILLE VAMPIRES SERIES
The house of night series (think its called that. First book is 'Betrayed' I think. Or 'Chosen')
Uh... *tries to imagine bookshelf at home*
*fails to do so* books.)
(thanks for the suggestions ^^)
(You're welcome)
(I recommend the darkest powers series if you haven't read it)
(Darkest powers? *goes to google it*)
Claire: No! I'm not wearing a skirt!
I tho7ht the Shiver trilogy and The Morganville Vampires were awesome. :) :) I didn't particularly like Hush, Hush but THE FONT IS SO NICE. :)
(huh. Ive seemed to have a nasty cough...great)
(morning Star! how art thou?)
Maze Runner is on my list. I'll probably wait for a bit before reading it though. It's quite popular at the moment coz of the movie, so it'll be high demand at the library . . .
(@Star I agree.)
You sound like a wingey child. Buck up and skirt up!
*enters the shop*
(aye, Star. Have you read the darkest powers?)
@Inky: Good, thanks. :) About to go to a theme park for my sister's birthday. Will possibly be dragged on a ton of extreme rides. :O
How're you? :)
@Inky: No, I haven't, sorry. :(
*nods at Sil* :)
(@Star LUCKY!!! *hasn't been on any 'extreme rides' ever*)
(Have fun, Star. I love extreme rides. there is this ride at oakwood, walled speed...good times.
I have a cough which must have developed over night...but all is good)
*called
(this is speed
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmb0tKd_YB8)
@Sil: I have.
I prefer the less extreme ones.
They're FUN and don't make you feel sick/scare you worse than exams.
Sorry. :P
:)
One day I'll have to meet you and Dragona and Luci and we can all go somewhere. :)
@Inky: :/ D: *hugs*
(*huggles Star*)
(Yes we will all have to meet Star! Luci Draggie me and You..
That'll be an interesting age range..
How old are you Star? And Luci?)
(hmm, my fav rollercoaster has to be megafobia...it is completely made out of wood
You guys are lucky...all being able to meet)
Claire: No! Trousers only!
Shhh. You're wearing a skirt for threatening to dissect me!
*smiles at the shop person* hi.
(I would enjoy the meeting. As would Dragona.)
Jenna-Louise Coleman said I was awesome...
(And you are Death. *huggles*)
Claire: I'm not wearing a skirt!
(Hey Xan, how art thou?)
(Hello Xanadu.)
(I am tired, but good ^^ I have a tonne of homework to do..but oh well)
Yes you are. What school is it?
Claire: It's name is Norlington's High School.
Right. Okay.
*walks around the shop, looking at the logos of the clothing*
*ugly ugly ugly ugly ugly ugly*
What does the uniform look like?
(I have just received a letter from my old school, inviting me to an awards evening...)
(I cant wait to see the teachers, but the thought about seeing everyone else... -_-)
(Hey Rave! how art thou?)
(OMG really? Okay...I dedicate this page to books.)
(Hey Inky, I'm doing alright. Yourself?)
( I am developing a cold, but im faring good ^^)
Claire: I don't know!
(Well that's good.
Hello Commander. Where do you rate today on the scale of average to less than average?)
*sighs and walks back to the shopman*
Excuse me? We're new here and we were wondering which uniform would be is Norlington's High School's?
(On a scale from average to less than average... Average.)
Shop man: Of course. If you will look to your left it is the uniform with the yellow and black tie.
Thank you.
*follows his instructions, dragging Claire with her*
Here.
(Well that's good, Commander.
Hello Sil, and goodbye everyone, I'm going to sleep now.)
Claire: *sighs* It looks horrible. *pokes a grey blazer* Why couldn't they have just made it black?
(Goodbye Raven.)
*grabs two blazers*
Boo hoo. Try it on.
*passes one to her, trying on the second one*
*walks to a mirror and inspects it, scowling at her reflection*
(Byii Rave)
Claire: *shrugs it on* I won't be able to fit my armour on underneath this. I'll get the next size up. *puts the blazer back on the coat hanger and gets the next size instead* *tries it on* This is better!
(I will be back in a brief moment.)
*looks at her*
It's massive on you.
*rolls eyes*
Right.
*puts hers back on its hanger and walks to the shirts*
Ugh. School shirts.
*picks one with half length arms and one with short sleeves*
*passes the short sleeved one to Claire*
(I am back.)
Claire: I know. But it's what I need. *looks at the shirt then takes it* I wonder if there are some changing rooms...
*points to a curtained cubicle*
There.
*grabs a tie, some trousers and a pair of boots for herself*
*hands Claire a tie, some open toe shoes, grey stockings and a skirt* try it on.
Claire: *sighs and grumbles, taking the clothes* *walks into the changing room and closes the curtain* *undresses and puts the clothes on*
*steps out* Are you happy now?
*looks at Claire*
Adorable.
*grins*
Right. Change back. I need to try these on.
Claire: I am not adorable! *goes back into the changing room and changes back to her normal clothes, making sure her leather armour is covered up underneath* *steps out* There you go.
Right. Don't go anywhere. Or do anything.
*walks in and closes the curtain, changing into the uniform*
*comes out, smoothing the trousers*
Alright?
Claire: *nods* Adorable.
*grunts*
Sure.
*walks back in, changing to her normal clothes*
*comes out*
Right. Time to buy.
Erica: yes it was.
Claire: *nods* *walks to the counter and places her clothes on it* Put yours there, Rebecca.
*places her clothes on the counter and looks out the front window*
...hey Tara, your friends appear to have followed us.
Erica: *squeals and falls in*
*surfaces*
HAIR!
Claire: ... Friends? I don't have... Oh. Damn. *takes £50 from her pocket and puts it on the counter* Here! Keep the change.
Shop man: *blinks, but puts the clothes in a plastic bag* Here you go, miss. *hands her the bag*
Claire: *takes it* We should get out of here, Rebecca.
Erica: *glares* *splashes water at him*
Yes we should...
*looks, trying to find any other exits*
*whispers* plan?
Claire: There are two things we could do. We could run, or... *voice turns into a whisper* *lifts her top up so Silente can see her belt full of blades and a single pistol holster* We could kill them.
(So let me get this straight... My dad pulls things out of my wardrobe and people dump things in my room and I get told off for my room being like a pig sty?)
(Chloe - some people are illogical.)
Erica: race you *swims to the ladder and climbs out*
*looks at the knives, then the girls* run. We arent killing them.
( indeed they are Soph, life's a bitch)
Chloe: Okay. After 3, then? 1... 2... 3... Go! *runs out of the shop*
*Claire:
(Dammit Chloe. I was trying to reply to you then forgot.
Yes, it is, Chloe.)
(Haha okay Soph)
(Hello............. hello?)
*mutters about stupid coughs and how I hope mine will go before tour*
Hi...
*runs, matching Claires speed, the girls not far behind, shouting to each other*
Bloody hate Bitches.
*grabs Claire's hand, pulling her faster, dragging her from the mall where another group of girls are waiting*
Shit.
(*glomps Gar* heWwo ^^)
Erica: *laughs* you win. Now, what's your prize..
*shuffles to the shadows and watches rp*
Claire: *her eyes glow white and the people in front of them fall over*
This way!
(How art thou, snow?)
(*gets glomped* Hello Inks
Hello Xan, soph, Sil and snow)
(Though art coughing my lungs out while in bed. It hurts. :( )
(Aww Snow, get better soon *huggles* I have a cough too)
(I have band tour Monday so I will scream if I'm not over it. How're you lot?)
(sorry internet issues.)
*follows Claire*
Well we're gonna fit in when we join!
Erica: *takes his hand, kissing him gently*
(I'm alright
And have fun ^_^)
(>^~^)># (here is a waffle snow)
(Wafffllleeeee *noms*)
Claire: We'll be fine. *continues to run back towards the house*
I doubt that.
*keeps running*
I think we can slow down now..
Erica: probably. *pulls his shirt off*
(Waffles are nice ^~^)
Claire: *slows down* The chances of the first bitch we run into having a horde of bitches under her command is pretty small. It would have been easier to kill them all.
(>^>^)> penguin face)
(I have to go. I will be back in a few hours. Goodbye.)
t(^_^t) choo choo
Not in terms of going to school. People get suspicious when a horde of Bitches die and two new girls join school.
(Byii Soph)
(Penguins!!)
(bye Soph.)
Erica: *unbuckles his pants*
(Bye Soph)
(it returns, the Choo Choo face is back t(^.^t)
(Am I the only one who use to watch the wombles?)
(Good god... when I breath in through my mouth, after I stop I have this horrible sound like there is still something breathing in inside me . It's disturbing)
(CHOO CHOO!!)
(That I weird Snow...)
Erica: *laughs and leads him fully into the sauna, steam swirling around them*
(Is because my throats all clogged up. It's still disturbing though)
(Aww bless *cwtchs*)
(... I should sleep...night)
(I used to watch the wombles too and know i have the theme song stuck in my mind)
(G'night Snow!)
(Night Snow... Get better soon)
(Night Snow... Get better soon)
(My author just had a wonderful dream - and he only dreams about six times a year.)
(He he Gar ^_^ I was just listening to it
Wanna Rp?)
Erica: *smiles, squeezing his hand gently* you're basically invisible
(Hey Tia! What was the dream ?)
(@Tia GOOD! I think. I presume. I hope..)
Erica: *laughs, nudging his shoulder* you did that on purpose.
(Hello Tia how be you?)
(Good bye snow)
(do you want to continue from where we left it last night?
Garr had just Taw what he was thinking about, which was them 2 having a baby) -R (<Garrett's author)
(Kk Gar ^^ the last thing Tawnee said was 'really')
*shadow walks to the lake, alone*
Tawnee: Gar? where are you?
Erica: *hugs him, kissing his cheek* its okay..
*looks into the water and sees his own reflection* what did i just do?
Tawnee: *runs out of pub* Gar! where arwe you? *shouts*
Erica: mmm saunas are nice. *presses against his side*
(Hello Chloe, Silente, Garrett and Xan!
How are you?)
(I am good, u?)
(im okay thanks Tia. You?)
Erica: this is probably nothing to you
(I'm good thanks Tia, how be you?)
*hears Tawnee shouting and shadow walks to her*
Tawnee: *hugs* where did you go?
