"New teacher today."
"What? What class?"
"Mr. Chance's, his wife just had the baby and yadda, yadda, yadda…"
"Yeah, cause nothing makes you want to stay home like a screaming alarm clock with no sense of time."
Jane had to smile at Daria's words. She always did know how to throw in a good one to make Jane smile.
"I still don't see why we would have to wear these robes."
"School uniforms, its code and another way for Ms. Li to milk our folks for money, considering that they are made by the home economics class,"
"Mmmm…"
"I'm surprised that your parents are even letting you attend. I thought that they would have had a more- liberal view about having you come into your own powers."
"Oh, they do, but Wind destroyed, remade, and destroyed the gazebo with their way of thinking so…"
"Oh…"
"Then there was the unfortunate incident with the cat." Jane scrunched her nose as she thought about it. "You don't want to know." She informed Daria's questioning glance.
"I guess there is some merit to knowing how to stay on the right path with the proper guidelines."
"Yeah and seeing my uber laid back brother 'not' use his abilities to enhance his musical inclinations, because he didn't want to 'cheat' has really made me want to dig in on this aspect of my high school learning."
"It should be interesting to see how this will affect your math grades."
"Now Daria, you know that the school has protection spells for any student trying to cheat the system. Remember Shaggy's purple scarlet letter 'C'."
Daria grimaced thinking of how the neon capitalized letter had followed him around for six months everywhere that he went. It had been quite the source of controversy for everyone in school and had effectively quelled anyone's desires for cheating on tests- at least for that year.
"Besides, I'm too lazy. Cheating takes more effort than I am willing to put in," Jane concluded with a satisfied smirk. The duo made their way through the halls of Lawndale's School For the Gifted until they got to the class that they shared. Ms. Li was there with two men standing behind her.
Daria took in the attractive duo that looked at the class through slightly hooded and seemingly impassive eyes. One of the men was especially tall with dark brown hair that hung almost to his shoulders. He had angular features Daria noted, though not like Trent's, but his features were angular in their own right with special attention to his nose which, under other circumstances, would have given him an aristocratic air in her opinion. In this setting it almost made him look like a slightly older, sneering student. They both wore black jeans and a button down tee; the taller of the two, about 6'4", had the sleeves of his burgundy and gray plaid shirt, slightly rolled and the other man was about 6'1" and wore his dark gray plaid shirt with the top button undone, but otherwise buttoned at the wrists. His hair was a much lighter shade of brown by comparison and he kept it cut short. It reminded Daria of an old ad for the pampers baby diapers- only on a hot older guy. Ms. Li was talking and Daria had to drag herself away from her assessment to listen.
"…because of the growing complexities of this field, that is why this class will be taught dually, in two groups alternately; so without further ado, I would like to introduce you to your new teachers for Defense against the Dark Arts- Mr. Sam Winchester and Mr. Dean Winchester."
The two men propelled themselves forward from where they'd been standing just behind the principle, stepped forward, and both spoke at the same time in deadpan format.
"Sup."
Daria smiled.
I think I might enjoy this class.
