"Sir!" Tori said desperately, slamming her hand on the principal's desk, "She put dead frogs in my locker!" Jade smirked at the mention of her little prank and shifted her weight to the other leg.
"I'm sorry Ms. Vega but if you don't have solid proof, I'm afraid we can't punish Ms. West for the crime." Tori opened her mouth to protest but the principal held up a hand, "Good day ladies," He gestured to the door where a secretary was poised to escort them out. Tori stomped out the door and whirled around to Jade once they were alone in the hallway.
"I know it was you!" She said, jabbing an accusing finger at Jade's nose. Jade only smiled and wiggled her eyebrows as if to say "Duh!"
"I didn't know you were a lawyer Vega," Jade said, "You're knack for finding incriminating evidence is stunning," Hot patches appeared on Tori's cheeks as her fuse began to shorten more and more.
"Why the hell would you do this?!" Tori said through her teeth, glancing over at the janitor sliding the frogs into a biohazard bag. He turned and gave her a dirty look.
"Didn't you hear the principal Vega? I didn't do it."
"I don't get how you get away with everything you do!" Tori said, frustrated, "It's like the teachers always turn the other way when you're pulling your BS!" Jade smirked again.
"Tori, you'll find that there are many perks to being me," She spun on her heel and glided out of the front doors. Tori let out a moan before starting back to class, giving the janitor an apologetic look on the way. Jade was hiding something. Some kind of immunity to the authority figures. Sure she was intimidating but it's not like they couldn't do anything about it. Behind that tough look, Jade was harmless which may be hard to believe.
"I'm gonna get her caught somehow…" Tori said to herself before going into her classroom. She spent the rest of the day brainstorming like crazy, feeling smug but ingenious at the same next day, Tori poised herself by Jade's locker where she met up with Cat.
"Hey Cat check this out!" Tori said as soon as Jade came into earshot, "Isn't it amazing?" Tori held up a triple platinum director's cut of The Scissoring, waggling it for of the corner of her eye, she saw Jade's eyes snap to the box.
"Tori how did you get that?" Cat said in her shrill voice, "There's only like ten other copies in the world!" Tori met Jade's eyes and smirked. The box wasn't what it appeared to be at all. In fact, the box art was printed from the internet and the disks were merely old DVDs of Trina's auditions for numerous reality shows.
"Oh I know a guy," Tori said, "Here take a look at the disks." She pulled one out and spun it around on her finger a few times, then threw it on the ground. "Oops, silly me!" She could see the look of absolute horror on Jade's face as the disk cracked in half.
"Oh don't worry look at this one," She pulled out another disk and proceeded to throw that one on the floor as well where it splintered into several pieces. Tori repeated the process until only one disk she lifted her arm to throw it down, a voice tore through the hall.
"VEGA!" One of the academic deans came sprinting down the hallway, stopping only to catch her breath, "You need to get to the principal's office immediately!"
"What why?!" Tori spluttered.
"You'll see when you get there."
Tori shoved the last DVD into Cat's hands and bolted after the dean. Jade watched them go, quietly putting a pair of industreal strength scissors in her locker.
"Oh Tori," She sighed, "It's bad to cut the water pipes in the teacher's lounge bathroom." Smirking, Jade closed her locker door and went to go change out of her wet shoes.
