Keep reviewing guys!
During the battle between Kendra and Grell last night, turns out while beating the curse words out of Grell she'd manage to fracture her hand. Turns out also, she's half human too. Ugh, Americans. Even the Shinigami there. The sex drive in American people! Back on topic, pumped up on adrenaline, she didn't feel pain until she calmed when she started wailing about her hand. So we took her to the local hospital in the realm and had it all bandaged up. The time at the hospital, I really looked at her. She wore all black, much like today. Like Grell, she wore black eye liner, and luckily for me, her morning routine was quite short. "Get dressed, eat breakfast, brush teeth, brush hair, put on eyeliner, and I'm done," she had told me this morning, after assisting her with getting dressed and reluctantly, allowing Grell to help her with the eye liner. Grell had hesitated a minute before agreeing. He seemed to lighten up to her after that. The three of us, Grell, Kendra, and I, were walking down to the Dispatch. Kendra and Grell were arguing about eye liner.
"But how do you use liquid instead of pencil?" Grell asked Kendra for the thousandth time. Kendra didn't seem to mine that at all though it annoyed me so.
"I don't like pencil eye line. It hurts," she said, making a face.
"Don't you get it in your eye, though?"
"Sometimes I do, yes. I take a q tip and put soap and water on it to get it off, if you were going to ask."
Grell didn't answer so I guess that was his question. He changed the subject about liquid and pencil eye liner, thank god. "So, tell me something 'bout yourself."
"Just found out that I'm half human, so that's why it's taking my hand so long to heal, but I got enhanced speed and power, half Enhanced endurance," she pointed to her hand, "I can see cinematic record. I do eat, but very seldom do I eat."
"When she does eat, she eats like a pig!" I exclaimed. "At least you cleaned up your mess though."
Grell scoffed. "A lady does not eat like that!"
Kendra looked at Grell funny and shrugged. "Who said I was a lady?" Grell stopped walking.
"You are female, right?"
"Well yeah. What I meant was, 'Who said I acted like one?' I'd rather not. I strongly dislike dress, skirts, dress shoes, heeled boots. That sort of stuff."
I sighed. Scratch that of the Buy Her list. I mentally added nice Polo t-shirts and khakis to the list. She couldn't be too hard to shop for.
"So, Will, have you told her about Ronnie yet?" Grell said suddenly.
"Er, who?" I said as I shook my head. "Oh! No, not yet. I thought I might tell her about him when she meets him."
Kendra looked at me, tilting her head. "Who's Ronald?"
"Will's 'lover boy.'" Grell used his fingers as quotation marks.
"Don't mind Grell; He's just jealous."
*"Well Yono intended us to be soul mates!"
Face-palm. "This is Kendra's story! Let it go on the way she wants it to!"
"Yeah! Let it go on the way Kendra wants it to go. Continue on me~!"*
" 'Lover boy?' That reminds me of Dirty Dancing."
"That's where he got it from," I said bluntly.
I was happy to see that blonde headed flash by us.
"Oh, Ronnie!" Grell called out in a sing song voice.
Ronald stopped and jogged backwards. "Hiya." He looked and Kendra. "Hiya, Kendra."
It was hard for me to keep up the handshake or whatever it was. The only thing I caught was the explosion.
"Okaay, so no need to introduce apparently. How?" I gestured between Kendra and Ronald.
Kendra looked innocently. "Weeeeeell… I kinda snuck out the window and wandered through London. I was sitting on a roof when a demon attacked-"
"Did it tell you its name?" I asked.
"It was Michealis," Ronald said bluntly.
Way to put me in a foul mood, not that I wasn't already. I flicked her ear and she yelped. "Don't sneak out of the house and switch realms without me knowing it!" I snapped harshly. She needed to know some rules here. "I don't know how it is in America and what you did there, but this is London. This is the London division. If you want to go out, tell me, and I'll come with you. I'll let you wonder ahead of me. If you are going to sneak out, take my death scythe! London is infested with demons, and they will not hesitate to kill you, especially Michealis!"
Ronald rubbed between my shoulder blades soothingly. "Take it down a notch, Will." He paused to look at Kendra. "He's right, though. Don't go out at night by yourself unarmed with a scythe. We've all been attacked by a demon."
Kendra nodded, taking a step away. I took a deep breath and stood a little straighter.
"Would you turn that mess down?" I looked up from the paper I was correcting.
Kendra paid me absolutely no attention. She was too busy messing with her phone and the music, honestly I wouldn't call it music, just humans screaming words I could not make out though I understood the many many curse words, she was listening to was loud and obnoxious. She just happened to look up at me. I motioned for her to take her ear phones out. She rolled her eyes like I was stupid, which in her mind I probably am for asking her to take her ear phones out, but reluctantly did so, taking only one out.
"Yeah?"
"Turn it down. Whatever that is it's horrible."
"Hollywood Undead, Blood On The Dance Floor, and Black Veil Brides is that shizz back home."
"It's classical here, sweetie. Try it sometime."
"When pigs grow wings and fly to Pluto, I'll try it. How about some Bon Jovi? "
I rolled my eyes. Jesus, I hope I didn't get myself in too much trouble in taking her in.
