A/N: I have no idea where these girls came from, though I do intend to post this on fanfiction as well due to references made in Ileanne's description. I loosely based her on the people of the Halloween Town in Nightmare Before Christmas and if from an AU I created where she is Jack's daughter...and no, I will not ever be posting that since it is just an idea not a story, and not to be confused with an I. D. E. A. This was mainly meant to be a character development thing
You're Insane!
"This is insane," – E said – "You're insane."
"What does that make you for being my friend then?" – Ileanne asked, pausing in her rope tying.
"Certifiable," – Alyssia quipped.
The three teenage girls were standing around a rope attached to a pulley.
E, short for E.A. Poe, was dressed as she always was, albeit in darker colors than normal. Many would call it Steampunk, she called it familiar and comfortable. Her long silver hair was pulled back in a black scarf, and her stitches and scars were all covered in either clothes or cover-up. She carried a box of bolts, nuts, screws, and gears of all sizes and kinds. Her normal annoyance – I mean Traveling companion – Mimic the enchanted raven, had opted to remain at the dorms, stating that he liked his beak the way it was and didn't want to risk flying into a wall. Or so E told them when asked.
Alyssia, the resident witch in their odd trio, had decided to go all out for this covert operation they – or rather Ileanne – had cooked up. She was dressed all in black, keeping her corset but trading her skirt for pants, with her blond hair tied up and covered by a black scarf. She had left most of her daggers at home but had four with plain leather grips on her, one in the top of each of her steel-toe combat boots and one on each hip. She had another coil of rope resting on her shoulder and a bucket of paint in each hand.
Ileanne, the 'insane' one, was dressed in her typical dark colored Hallow Town clothes – top, skirt, corset, webs, gloves, and her right arm wrapped from wrist to shoulder – the only things missing were her signature top hat and her 'belt' slash pet dragon Matches, who was playing look-out for the trio. Her hair was tied up as well, though it needed no scarf already being as black as night.
"Here," – Alyssia said, handing one of the buckets to Ileanne when she gestured for it. – "So…Why are we doing this again?"
Ileanne and E shared a look. E's obviously saying – "This is your plan, you explain it to her."
Set up done, the trio moved on to the last area, Ileanne explain on the way – for the tenth time.
"Remember last week?" – Ileanne asked, at Alyssia's nod she continued, - "Well this is for that. We ("You," – E corrected) let him stew in his juices and work himself into a panic and paranoia about when and what we would retaliate with."
"Oh, cool," – Alyssia said as the three set up the last of the tripwire activated paint slingshots.
"I'll say it again;" – E said as a group of guys made their way into the darkened gym – "You're insane."
A/N: If they're insane, what does that make me? Like I said at the top, I have no idea where they came from, mostly. I do have some more ideas for them, and a few others who will be making appearances in other one-shots.
