Hey! Here is Lexi,
Hermitt: Erynne.
DemonChick344: And Maddy.
Lexi: So, hey. We are doing a collaborate. It's going to be way cool. And we get to be main characters! Along with Bella. The Cullen's are going to come along, and we will stun them with our ninja skilz!!!!
Maddy: You will remember this story forever. We are crazy, we are possibly dangerous, and we are the stars of this story. Move over, Eddie poos. Here come the real heroes - or anti-heroes.
Erynne: It will be one of the coolest things you ever come across, believe me. We will rock your socks right to the seams!!! Don't ask me to explain myself... I don't understand myself most of the time... haha... enjoy!!!
Lexi: Dudes. Remember. WE OWN NOTHING. Not the Twilight Saga,
Maddy: Though I wouldn't mind owning Embry. Yum.
Lexi: Or any songs or whatever we randomly decide to put in here. So yeah.
Now we Present… Masks on the Wall
Oh; A thing about me. When we are talking together, we mainly use my power. I'm a telepath. Just by the way. ~Lexi.
Lexi POV
No, we aren't regular girls.
We aren't even regular people.
But I don't think that we can help that.
This is our story.
It will be violent.
It will be funny.
We will probably almost die a lot.
Or maybe not.
You can't really tell all the time.
We are different.
And not how your mom told you that everyone is unique.
We are too different.
And if people find out, we shall be punished.
Failure is not an option.
Who are we?
We have four people in our little group. They are me, Bella, Erynne, and Maddy, also known as MadZ when we feel like it.
I guess I'll just start at the beginning. It is the beginning, right? Or is it the beginning of the end?
I swore as I tripped over another box in the dark. "It's WAY too dark in here!" I whispered to Maddy, directly behind me.
"Felicia said that there would be a meeting here. If we can't trust our best informant, we can't trust anyone." Maddy answered, staring into my eyes in that eerily direct way she always does.
I knew that, it was my idea to have Felicia as an informant in the first place, Felicia being my best friend. "She does know everything," I conceded.
Erynne groaned behind the two girls, drawing attention to herself. "I can't believe that the Devil Pokers would have a meeting here. This is too gross, even for their standards."
"Well, I can't believe that. If they wanted to have an inconspicuous meeting place, they would choose something to be off the beaten track." Maddy said.
Bella spoke up for the first time. "They are smart. We cannot be outsmarted by our enemies, can we girls?"
I cleared my throat, about to start one of my lectures which I was known for. Nah. I don't really feel like it. Definitely not the time, being in enemy territory and all.
I suppose you should know about us. Maddy, Erynne, and I are part of an Elite spy organization controlled by the U.S. government.
I'm an orphan. My parents were killed by some people who wanted revenge. For, you could say this, I was born to be a spy.
My parents were spies; the best of the best.
And what happened of course is that they fell in love, as nemesises are ought to do.
When I was nine years old, I could already kill a man with a screwdriver and a paper napkin. But danger was on the horizon. My parents were lured in the trap by Utlapa, a secret organization that controlled most of the organized crime in the whole New York area.
My parents were becoming an annoyance, so Utlapa decided to off them.
I killed almost all the members of Utlapa by the time I was thirteen. The rest scattered. I don't really think that we will ever hear from them again.
My friend Felicia introduces yours truly as an encyclopedia, for I know many different trivial facts.
I'm a good fighter, I especially like to do the scorpion kick. My power is that I'm a telepath. I'm able to read minds, and now I can sometimes control them. I can also link minds together, which is what we do when we have a telepathic conversation.
Maddy is actually a sweet girl in awful circumstances. Her home town was bombed, and she was the only survivor.
I found her on the street and took her in. She is in charge of a lot of the technical uses of her new position, since she can hack into many systems with her power to control magnets.
Erynne is an odd one. Woke up in a hospital with no idea of who she might be, she made a living of being a boxing champion and an anonymous street fighter. I found her also and brought her to the government.
Her power is adrenaline rushes. She can have all types of adrenaline rushes, from regular ones to ones that can have her clone herself. She doesn't do that often, though. It tires her out. She can control when she gets them, and also how long, which is really cool.
Bella was at the government before any of us. She found me, having parents who were friends with my own, and then I found the other girls. Her power is that she can block people out, even sometimes having a physical shield. She is pretty bad at that though, so we need to help her a lot.
All of us are the same age, seventeen.
We all look a bit similar, except for our hair color. We have a two brunettes, Bella and Maddy, a redhead, me of course, and blue black hair, Erynne. Otherwise we look about the same.
The girls are a team, through thick and thin and all of that nonsense. Sometimes wanting to pull the others hair out, yes, but not giving in until we kill the bad guys.
Until now.
"What is that?" I felt Bella whisper.
I heard it too.
"I think we are at the hideout." I felt Erynne whisper.
"Acute observation. No, duh." Said Bella.
We started to hear disjointed phrases through the door.
"… Can't trust… What about… Different packages…"
We tried to sneak up on them, honest we did.
And then Bella coughed.
Shit.
"Girls, we need to get out of here!" Yelled Erynne while knocking a man out with a swift uppercut.
"Where is the door?" I yelled, knocking out one opponent with a scorpion kick, then using the inertia to swing around, facing two others.
"Near the exit sign, duh!" chuckled Maddy, who coolly incapacitated her attackers.
We heard a shutter click.
We turned around, horrorstruck at the man who quickly shot six pictures in rapid succession.
Our cover is blown, I thought when we ducked through the fence and into the car.
We'll have to do something.
"Girls, we are going to have to move you for about two years." Said Mr. Thompson, our boss. "We are going to have all of you pretend to be quadruplets, in Charlie's house. You know Charlie? In Forks?"
"Oh, great." I muttered to the other girls. "We get to be 'Charlie's Angels.'"
"It's only temporary. We need to figure out what to do, and we have to know how to do this." Mr. Thompson frowned at us. "You need to be on your best behavior."
"Do you not trust us, Mr. T?" Asked Erynne, blinking her eyes adorably.
"Nope. Girls," he said, leaning over the desk with genuine worry on his face, "Please be careful. You are our best agents. If we lost you, the effects would be huge. You may take your leave."
"Yay," Bella muttered to the other girls. "We get to go to Spoons! I mean, Forks. Knives? What about Plate? Well, we can check it out on Google."
We will get through this. High school? How bad can it be?
Really bad, as we began to figure out.
Forks is a rainy town in Washington.
The only thing that I know about Washington is that it looks like it has a clefted chin.
Or something like that.
And that it's rainy.
I hate the rain.
And thus, I think I won't like Forks.
The girls and I were boarding the plane, and a lot of guys were ogling us.
Don't they have anything better to do?
I suppose not.
We all think that we aren't beautiful. And then we think that the others are prettier than us.
But we are way more than a pretty face.
We could probably kill all of the ogling guys if we wanted to.
Of course, it wouldn't do. The people would start to scream, the police would come, and we would miss our flight.
Jeez, I'm sort of depressing, aren't I?
I just hope I can stand those sexist piglets staring for a while.
Thank god for iPods. I guess we could clear some of the noise out as we talk using my awesome telepathic powers.
I sat down as we waited at the gate, and drifted to a memory more vivid than any I had ever had…
We all sat in a circle, smiling at each other.
Today, we become blood sisters.
We are already sisters in every other sense.
And no, it isn't some scary voodoo thing where we all almost spill every last drop of our blood or drink each others - yuck.
No. It's something special between us as we cement our bond to one another, swearing an unspoken oath to each other to be there for one another no matter what; to be the ones to see each other through the worst; it is the Blood Oath; the eternal swearing of loyalty and love for one another.
As the one who had brought us all together, I started the swearing.
I took one of the four pocket knives in the centre of our circle and slowly dragged it along the palm of my hand, watching as my blood was drawn.
The girls then proceeded to do the same, each showing no pain, only a joyous light in their eyes at the Blood Oath we were about to make, sealing each other as Blood Sisters.
Now, you may think this is a disgusting thing, but to us, who had little or no family left, it was everything. We were sisters' already in every sense but one, true, but we wanted to be sisters in every sense.
We all placed our selective knives back down on the ground in front of us and staring into each others eyes in turn, seeing the same love and devotion we felt for each other, we proceeded.
We raised our hands, bleeding freely, and held them up, palms facing out.
Slowly, we gave each other a sort of foursome high-five, only it was slow and so much more meaningful.
We all closed our eyes and breathed deeply, letting the air flow all throughout our bodies and then, as we breathed out, felt our blood make contact and join as one.
It was an incredible thing to know that we were now sisters in every way.
Our blood had mixed with each others as we had joined palms.
Opening our eyes we smiled brilliantly at each other.
"Sisters," we all said in unison.
As we went into the plane, we all were bored. Which is really easy to be. I expected that we would be bored out of our wits in that stupid high school, in stupid classes, with stupid boys, and stupid bitches, and unintelligent sister.
Fortunately, we all sat in the middle row. I of course was the only one who had a person that we didn't know next to me, and of course, it was a testosterone filled, teenage boy.
F my life.
I just put in my iPod and opened up the channel of communication in my brain.
The voices were manageable most of the time, but always a buzz in the end of my consciousness. I could find things in their heads easy enough, but I had to do it next to a sister, or else I would completely zone out. What would happen would be that I could actually get run over by a car without feeling anything. I'm almost completely numb.
I think that they think that I go to my happy place.
But I really just focus on the voices… Hey, I'm a bored seventeen year old! What do you expect???????
Wow… I sounded like a psycho there. One second while I get my brain in order.
You know, because of they voices….? Eh, forget it.
"I'm bored!" Yelled Erynne. I winced as I turned down the volume on my internal headset.
"What do you want to do?" Bella screamed back.
"Um… Remember guys, you don't have to yell. I'm trying to get through this trip with my nerves intact." I interrupted.
"Fine." Maddy sighed. "Ooh, I have an idea, lets play poker! Texas hold-em, anyone?"
"I'll be fine this game guys. I'm going to do some thought fishing." I said. I never got thought poker anyways, we just made up the cards as we go along.
"Ugh." Bella said. She always could hear the voices I heard more clearly than the others. We thought it was because she was the first hand I touched when we were blood bound.
I sighed to myself as I nestled into my seat, trying to ignore the hormonal idiot beside me and waited for the plane to fly me to my personal hell-on-Earth... and I hadn't even been to the place yet...
We burst out of the gate, the first passengers off.
"Land! Sweet land!" I yelled, kissing the ground.
The girls copied me. Today we figured out that we are way too bored.
I need to go capture something.
We stood up, and saw all of the other passengers looking at us like we were insane.
What was your first clue, huh?
"Lexi…" Erynne said.
"What?" I asked although I already knew what she was going to say.
"Are you talking with your voices again?" She asked, looking smugly at me.
"Yep. Some REALLY annoying, REALLY headachey, REALLY stuffy voices!" I yelled.
Everyone in the terminal turned towards me.
Oh. "Was I talking out loud?" I asked the girls.
"Yep." Said Maddy, her mental voice sympathetic.
Erynne POV
We saw Charlie leaning against his police cruiser as we left the airport, wheeling our suitcases and carrying our carry-on bags as we made our way over to him.
"'Sup Charlie?" I said, nodding to him as we came closer.
"Hey Charlie," said the other girls.
"Hey girls," he replied, smiling a small but pleased smile.
We exchanged small pleasantries before we all got into the cruiser and made our way to our new home.
We were in our rooms. We had arrived at our new house and were unpacking our possessions.
Maddy and Lexi were sharing a room located on the side of the hallway closest to the backyard.
There was a bathroom at the end of the hallway, which connected our two rooms.
I was sharing a room with the sleep-talker, Bella.
Joy.
Just my luck to draw the short straw and end up with her.
Nah. It was okay.
We (Maddy, Lexi and I) were used to her sleeping habits by now and didn't give it a second thought.
Bella and my room faced the front yard, giving us a clear, strategic view of anyone going past our house.
I had just finished placing the snap wire on the window. It was a device that would allow us to know if anyone had come into our room through the window. When someone opened the window, the wire would snap and we could check it whenever next we did, knowing that someone had broken in.
I was surprised that Charlie didn't already have any on… I guess he'd become complacent in his retirement years…
I'd have to talk to him about that…
I had just finished unpacking and putting away my many weapons, though I favored my fists, and was just putting away the last of my shoes, battling Bella for wardrobe space when I heard the roar of two engines in the distance.
The roars grew steadily louder until they were right outside our house.
Going over to the window with Bella following closely behind me, we gazed out of the window to see two ancient Chevrolet's pull up by the side of our house.
They stalled for a moment before the engines cut off.
There was a black-gray one with a white stripe down each side, which looked like a pensioner. The other was an ancient red one, all rusty and looked like it belonged in the prehistoric era.
The girls and I gathered in the hallway before we all rushed down the stairs, eager to see our first visitors.
As we exited the house we were met with the smiles of three strange men.
There was an older man, around Charlie's age, in a wheelchair with an open face and deep, throaty chuckle that made you smile along with him.
There were two boys with him. One appeared to be his son from the same smile and chuckle while the other appeared to be a friend of theirs.
"Ah! Here they are!" smiled the man in the wheelchair broadly. "Billy Black," he introduced himself.
"Hey, I'm Jacob," said the boy that appeared to be his son, "Billy's my dad."
Bingo.
"I'm Embry," said the final boy, quieter and more shyly than the other two.
"Mine!" screeched Maddy in our minds. Lexi's telepathy not only allowed her to hear us, but us to hear her and each other as well.
"Hi," said Maddy, smiling brightly at him, speaking before any of us even got the chance to open our mouths. "I'm Maddy."
I noticed that Embry's face became one shade darker at her obvious attention.
'I'm Lexi," said Lexi, slightly softer.
"Bella."
"Whassup?" I said, acting the tough-chick, lowering my voice and putting on a poker face. "Ma name's Erynne. That's Erynne with a 'y', two 'n's and an extra 'e'."
"Ah! You're here Billy!" yelled Charlie as he came out the front door.
Laughing, Jacob said, "I don't know how you could've missed us Charlie! I'm sure you could've heard us from all the way across town!"
I heard Charlie mutter something about 'napping' and 'getting as much sleep as he can while he can considering he now has four teenage girls under his roof'.
I chuckled as he past us, slapping him on the back.
"Don't worry, Cha- dad," I said. It was awkward calling someone 'dad'.
I had never known my parents and had never had to call anyone that before. But our cover relied on our ability to play the role of Charlie's four, quadruplet daughters from his ex-wife, Renee, also a spy, although she hadn't retired… just gotten herself killed in a gas explosion while on some top secret mission… figures.
Our cover story was that Renee had gained sole custody of us and moved to Phoenix, taking us with her and that Charlie only came to visit us; never the other way around.
"You'll get plenty of sleep… we won't bother waking you when we sneak out, so don't worry," I said, continuing and erupting chuckles from my sisters and Embry, loud guffaws from Jacob and Billy and a grumble from Charlie.
I smiled a winning smile at them all. "That reminds me of the time-" I started before Charlie cut me off.
"You staying to watch the game, Billy?"
Ah! Baseball I presume! A wonderful sport… it's just that I think boxing is so much better.
I said so, causing outraged complaints from both Billy and Charlie.
That was all it took for us to get into a debate about the sports and then eventually all sport in general.
"Boxing is great, Erynne, but it can't beat super-car racing," said Billy.
"Are you insane?!" I asked, shocked, and pulling a face that said 'you better take that back or you won't live to see the next race of your beloved car racing'.
"Don't you like car racing?"
"Are you kidding me? It's great! But boxing… and the whole street fighting scene is unbeatable… just like me…" I said smugly, evoking an eye roll from Charlie and a curious stare from Billy.
Little had I noticed that Maddy had moved over to Embry and now they were having a quiet discussion about who knows what and Lexi had moved over to talk to Jacob.
Bella, on the other hand, had moved over to the red Chevrolet and was running her hands over it, admiring its rust coated form.
"Ah!" said Billy, noticing this. "Do you like it, Bella?"
"Huh?" she said, coming out of her own little world for the first time.
"The truck," I said. "Do you like it?"
"Oh!" said Bella, going a bright shade of red. "Yes. It's beautiful."
Maddy snorted at this.
"Don't you think so, MadZ?" I asked.
"Well…" she said, feeling herself boxed in. "It's a nice classic model. Looks original… I'd have to check… but that thing would be about as fast as a snail! Even I wouldn't be able to make it go over 70, 75 max. So you'll have to excuse me if I prefer something a little faster."
"You like cars?" asked Jacob curiously.
"Oh god, here we go," I moaned.
"You're one to talk Erynne. As soon as Char- dad said 'game' I could practically see the drool coming outta your mouth!"
"Excuse me if I prefer a good game," I said, mimicking her when she had said the same thing about the truck and snail.
"Girls! Neither of you can really say anything. You both love speed and you are both competitive!" said Lexi, smiling at us fondly.
"Whatever," I snorted at the same time as Maddy before we looked at each other and broke down into laughter.
"But you girls do like it?" asked Charlie, a little uncertainly.
"Yes," we all replied at the same time before laughing again.
"Good. 'Cause that is what you'll be taking to school."
"What about our bikes?" asked Maddy, outraged.
"You girls know why…"
"Don't you trust us, Charlie? We won't do anything wrong," I said innocently, blinking my eyes adorably.
"Har har," said Charlie. "Nice try, but no, I don't trust you when it comes to your bikes… and obeying the speed limits… I am the chief of police after all."
I huffed while Lexi sighed and Bella smiled.
"So we're gonna turn up to school in that? Do you have any idea what the kids will think of us?"
"Since when do you care what other people think?" asked Bella, really joining the conversation for the first time.
"I don't," said Maddy indignantly, "it's just that I would love to see their faces when we turn up on our bikes."
I laughed at this. "Me too," I agreed. "It's all about the first impressions. Besides, do you know how much trouble I'd get in from my baby if I neglected her like that?"
"Your baby?" asked Jacob curiously.
"Oh yes!" I sighed dramatically. "My baby; my one and only love; my light in the dark; my beautiful-"
"Erynne," said Bella, cutting me off.
I pouted and crossed my arms over my chest, acting hurt.
"But my poor baby!" I said, tearing up; I was all about the dramatics.
"What bike is it? I'm guessing it's a bike, right? Can I see it?" said Jake, looking at me, humour written plainly across his face as well as a strong hunger for the vehicle.
"Alas! Our bikes are arriving after us, later in the week; a few more days of torture. But my baby is a beauty of a bike. A Kawasaki Ninja ZX14R," I sighed lovingly. "She is the damned most beautiful thing on two wheels."
"Hey!" said Maddy in mock outrage. "What about my bike?"
"What about your bike?" I asked innocently.
"How about we all go inside?" asked Lexi, averting the oncoming storm.
There were immediate consents from an amused Billy, Jacob and Embry, a grumbly consent from Charlie and Maddy (who I could tell wouldn't let my mockery of her bike go easily) and an exasperated consent from Bella.
That afternoon the girls and I got on incredibly well with Billy and the boys.
Maddy had hung out with Jacob, Embry and Lexi the whole time, talking to Jacob about his latest mechanical work on a Volkswagen Rabbit which she had offered to help him with; she had managed to work Embry into the conversation quite brilliantly, the whole time, always paying him much attention.
Lexi knew her fair share about mechanics and was quite content talking to them about cars and the like too, we all knew about mechanics, it was just that Maddy was the specialist; that tended to happened when you had the ability to control metal, not to mention hack into any system on the face of this earth.
The Black's and Embry were great people with an excellent sense of humor; which I admired in any person.
By the time it came to leave, the boys helped Billy into the black-gray Chevy before saying their last goodbye's to all of us and promising to see us all again soon.
"I'll see you soon!" smiled Maddy sweetly at Embry, whose blush had not left him the whole visit and had now managed to turn a few shades darker.
"Watch out Billy!" I called to him as Embry got in the passenger seat next to him. "Embry might burn your face off!"
It was lame – I know – but I did manage to evoke laughter from everyone present. I was infectious.
As they drove away we all went to our respective past times; Maddy cleaning her weapons; Bella cooking dinner (she had decided to become the house cook seeing as Charlie sucked at it); Lexi practicing her martial arts, particularly her already perfect scorpion kick; Charlie sat in front of the television; and I stood right in front of him, blocking his view of the college baseball game.
"Hey!" he protested, trying to see around me.
"Not so fast," I said warningly, causing him to stop in his efforts to continue watching his game. "We need to talk about your security situation. You've gotten slack, old man."
"What do you mean?" Charlie asked, still leaning around me trying to watch the game.
"There aren't any extra security measures in here! What if an old enemy comes and breaks in? You would be completely unprotected!" I yelled at him.
"Um…" Charlie said, obviously being unable to find a reason of his horrible lack of foresight.
"I already installed some snap wires and other things, but still. We'll get MadZ to look at it later, she's a genius with all the techie stuff." I said, still frowning at him but letting him see his game.
"Fine." He whined, settling further into his chair, his eyes already glued to the television.
I sighed and sprang up the flight of stairs, using my first level of adrenaline rushes.
"Hey. I'm going to see how fast 'the thing' can go. Does anyone want to go with me?" I yelled to my girls.
"Eh. Done enough training now. Sure." Said Lexi as she approached, toweling off her hair and twisting it into a twist.
"Dinner's in the oven. All right." Bella screamed back.
"I'll clean the rest of the weapons after dinner, ok?" Maddy said, appearing suddenly.
Her weird thing is that she can use electromagnetic currents, from cell phones and stuff, and almost teleport. And make shields. She can't go through walls or anything though, but she has actually run into a couple of walls before.
"Fine. I call shotgun!" I yelled, running towards where I saw 'the thing' parked.
"I'll drive, since I'm the only one who likes this truck." Sighed Bella, frowning at us.
"What can I say?" Said Maddy, shrugging. "Our bikes are so much cooler. I can't believe that you don't want one though. You prefer this ratty old piece of junk to those state of the art bikes."
"I personally loved my bike when Maddy picked it out for me Bella." Lexi said, turning her face towards Bella and doing her famous puppy-dog eyes. "Maybe you should give one a chance."
"Alright, I guess I'll... Lexi, that isn't very nice!" Bella sighed.
"What?" Lexi whined, looking at Bella as she started the engine.
"You know that I can't resist those puppy-dog eyes of yours." Bella said, backing out of the driveway.
"Uh-oh?" Lexi said. "She knows our secret." She whispered to us, pulling a mild expression of panic.
We started laughing as we started to drive through the town.
"Bella, I blinked and the town went away. Do you think that maybe you could go back?" I asked, throwing a mischievous glance over my shoulder to the other girls.
"We haven't even gone out of the neighborhood, dummy." Said Bella, looking ahead. "Here is the actual town."
We went through the town.
All we saw were a couple of old people, and some teenagers hanging out at the 7-11.
"Wow. The most fun thing here is the 7-11. We're going to have so much fun!" Lexi squealed sarcastically.
We cruised, (or bumped), back around, looking at the 7-11.
"Wow! That blond bimbo that was making out with a dark haired boy, is now making out with a light haired boy!" Yelled Maddy.
"Wow. You are actually right!" Bella said calmly, rolling her eyes.
"I'm thirsty. Could I get something for us to drink?" I asked Bella and Maddy.
"Sure. It's not like I'm a mom or anything." Said Bella, as she turned the car around.
We parked at the 7-11 and went inside.
I picked up a coke for each of us and paid for them at the cash register, where a pimply faced Caucasian boy was staring dumbstruck at us, each looking off in a different direction.
When we went outside, blond bimbo was still making out with a dude with blond spiky hair. It looked like they were trying to eat each others faces, actually.
As we walked a couple meters, the boy looked up and got up. When he took his lips off the blond bimbos, it made a sound such as a sink draining. "Wow." He whispered, then arranging his mouth in a lecherous smile. "I'm Mike, what can I do for you?"
Blond bimbo stood up, looked at us, and said, "Who are you?", in a tone that sounded like she had just sucked the helium out of several balloons. Clearly she had at least three nose jobs, a boob job, and a tummy tuck. Plastic weirdo.
"I'm Erynne. This is Lexi, Maddy, and Bella. We are cooler and bitchier than you can ever be. Stay away from us, Barbie. "
"My name is Lauren!" Said the blond bimbo, looking outraged.
"Whatever you say Barbie. And… Mitch, you can stay away from us. Bye!" I said, steering my girls toward the car.
We had just seen the first of the teenagers of Forks High.
Lord help us.
When we got home, we went into bed straight away, after Maddy and Lexi took showers. Bella and I would shower in the morning.
After we brushed our teeth, we slipped into bed. I don't know what tomorrow will bring, but I really hope that we can push away the hormonal pieces of trash that thought of me and my girls as meat.
We quickly fell asleep, not knowing that tomorrow we would all find out a truth that no one would ever forgive us for knowing.
So? How'd you like it? Review, please!
