Fabulous Five 013 - The Christmas Countdown (8 page)

"LOOK OUT!" yelled Jana as she tightened her grasp
on her cafeteria tray to keep it from being knocked out of her hands. The girl
who had run into her turned and stuck her tongue out and kept going.

Jana was shaking with anger when she reached the table where
the rest of The Fabulous Five were sitting. "Did you see what Geena McNatt
did?" she fumed. "She almost made me lose my lunch. I mean literally."

"Don't feel bad," said Katie, nodding. "She's
making someone else's day right now."

Jana looked in the direction Katie indicated. Geena McNatt
was in an argument with Tammy Lucero at the other end of the room, and Tammy
was wiping something off her skirt. It was obviously another bumping incident.

"The way she runs over people, she needs her own
private traffic cop," said Christie.

"Remember what Jon said when Shane was talking her
brother Max into donating to our animal fund," Beth reminded them. "He
said all three of Geena's brothers were just like her. I guess it runs in the
family."

It seemed to Jana that wherever Geena went, trouble
followed. She was in Jana's Family Living class and was always disrupting
things and picking on some of the smaller kids. The bumping incident was the
first run-in that Jana had had with her. "Pardon my pun," she said,
giggling, "but I really don't care to run into her again."

Jana does have another run-in with Geena McNatt. In fact she
has to deal with the whole McNatt family. Find out how Jana handles the McNatt
tribe in
