I hope the Atlantis twist is well-liked. I know I said it would be a while for chapters because I don't know how often I'll get ideas for chapters, but I'm putting more effort into this fic for now because I have a little over ten chapters of my 'VicTORious', 'iCarly' crossover. When I get close to that posted of it, I'll start writing a bit more of it, while still working on this.
I meant to wait until tomorrow to post this, but since I finished it a little earlier, I decided to post it.
Thanks for the reviews, follows, and faves.
Hope you like this chapter.
Disclaimer: I don't own 'VicTORious' or its characters. Just Christoph.
I admit, Jade's idea is based off the episode of 'Charmed' where the genie tries to resurrect Agrabah, I believe, for power. I don't remember the name of the episode or which season it was in, all I remember was that it was after Chris was revealed to be Piper's son, only to Phoebe, and Phoebe was turned into a genie. I don't know if that'll be Christoph's ploy or not though, just a thought I had.
No POV
After History class, Jade kept a close eye on Victoria. After hearing about Atlantis being real and that it was where Mermaids used to live, the Goth couldn't stop thinking about the story and why Atlantis seemingly collapsed when it did.
After school that day, with Jade riding with Victoria and Katrina to the Vega house, Jade's thoughts kept straying to Atlantis, and Christoph's plans. As Katrina pulls into the driveway, a thought struck Jade as she follows Victoria into the house.
"I need to talk to you about something." Jade tells Victoria as they go to sit on the couch. "We'll be upstairs." She tells Katrina, guiding Victoria to the tanned girl's room.
"What is it?" Victoria asks, worried, as Jade closes the door behind her.
"I think I might have an idea about what Christoph might be planning." Jade says, sitting on Victoria's bed. "It's a stretch, but is there a chance that Atlantis might be able to be brought back by the witches Christoph has working for him?" She asks, jumping into her idea.
"I do not know. I have not heard about it." Victoria says, staring at Jade. "What would Atlantis have to do with Christoph?" She asks, confused.
"I don't know. Maybe just too many movies where the revival of a lost city leads the villain to great power or something." Jade says, looking at Victoria.
"I guess we could ask Phoebe, maybe there is a spell or something he might want?" Victoria suggests, trying to be helpful.
"No, no need to involve her unless we need to." Jade says, hugging Victoria. "Sorry I dragged you away. I didn't want to mention it in front of Trina. I promised you I wouldn't let Trina know that I knew about Atlantis." She says, head resting against Victoria's.
"I understand. Why do you think he wants Atlantis?" Victoria asks, resting her head.
"Like I said, too many movies I guess. His timing is off to me. If he wanted your powers, then why not go after it when you were still a mermaid, when you still had your powers at their peak, not when you became human and your powers were greatly dropped?" Jade asks staring at Victoria's wall.
"That is a good point. And why wait until after I found love, not before, when a lover becomes an obstacle?" Victoria asks, staring at the same wall.
"Exactly. What does he want that requires you to be in love, and someone in love with you?" Jade asks, thinking out loud.
The two sit in the same position for close to a half hour, getting up only when Katrina yells for them, saying that she made snacks to tide everyone over until dinner, assuming Jade stayed like usual.
"Do I want to know what you two were doing up there for over a half hour?" Katrina asks as the other two girls enter the kitchen, giving them a cautious look.
"I took her virginity with a strap-on." Jade says with a smirk as she sits on one of the chairs at the table.
"What is 'virginity' and 'strap-on'?" Victoria asks, taking the seat beside Jade.
"A strap-on is..."
"She does not need to know." Katrina says, cutting off Jade's answer, as she places a plate of Bagel-bites in the middle of the table.
"What are these?" Victoria asks, staring at Jade and Katrina with slight worry.
"Bagel-bites. Remember those pizza rolls you tried and liked a few weeks ago?" Katrina asks, glaring at a smirking Jade.
"Yes?" Victoria answers, picking up a Bagel-bite.
"Kinda the same thing. The same things that made up the pizza rolls is essentially what's on top of the bagels." Katrina says, taking a seat across from Victoria, not making much sense, but Victoria still gets the idea.
"Oh, okay." Victoria says, still staring at her 'sister' and girlfriend. "What were those words? Someone please tell me?" She begs, staring at them.
"A virgin is someone who has never had sex." Katrina says, glaring at Jade again. "A women loses her virginity when something breaks her hymen, a bit of skin in her, vagina." She says, hesitating at the word 'vagina'. "You know what, you explain. I'm gonna go work on homework." She says, slightly shaking as she stands up, grabs a few Bagel-bites, and heads upstairs, her bag in hand.
Jade spends the next fifteen minutes explaining a few ways a woman can lose her virginity, and what a strap-on is. After the talk, a slightly stunned Victoria grabs a now cool Bagel-bite and takes a bite of it, and stares ahead.
"You okay?" Jade asks, staring at Victoria with concern in her eyes.
"That is not what I expected to hear." Victoria answers. "Is that something you want to do?" She asks, staring at Jade.
"Whenever we're ready, you're ready." Jade says, serious. "Don't worry. I'm a virgin too. I never felt close enough to Beck for it, and though I do with you, I'm in no hurry. I'm fine with waiting until you're ready." She says, turning Victoria's head to face her fully.
"Do you have a, strap-on, like you mentioned?" Victoria asks, stuttering a bit at 'strap-on'.
"No. I know how to get one, but I don't have one. Why? Want one just in case?" Jade asks, wiggling her eyebrows at the question.
"What? No! I mean, not that I..." Victoria stutters, not making sense.
"Chill out, just messing around." Jade says with a laugh.
"That was mean, Jadelyn." Victoria tells her, pouting.
"Sorry, old habits die hard." Jade tells her, holding her close. "Trina's got the right idea. Let's go work on our homework." She says, guiding Victoria up, leading her back to her room. "How often did you see Ryder and the others?" She asks, her tone dropping to serious and concerned.
"Not too much, not out of the ordinary." Victoria answers, closing the door behind her when they reach her room.
"Same here. I was afraid of that." Jade says, opening her bag. "I would have thought that with their constant vigil over us, something in their habit would falter, give them away or something." She says with a sigh.
"What do you mean?" Victoria asks, taking her Math book and notebook out of her bag.
"If they started to watch us more, or less, or something, then maybe we could have an idea of what Christoph is ordering them or something." Jade says, opening her History book.
The two do their homework for the next couple of hours, making small talk to forget about the current situation involving Christoph and their fears, and helping each other with their work. Around 7:30, Holly Vega calls up to them, all three of them, knowing Jade was again staying since her house is mostly empty since her parents are rarely there.
"Hello Jade." Holly says, smiling at the Goth when she sits at the table.
"Hello Holly." Jade says, still unsure how to act at the 'mother' of her girlfriend.
"What's for dinner?" Katrina asks, sitting down, pocketing her phone.
"Macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, and grilled chicken." Holly answers, grabbing four plates, one left on the counter for her husband who tends to run late. "I need to go work on a case, love you girls." She says, filling a plate up and heading upstairs.
"Does she ever eat down here?" Jade asks, watching Holly walk up the stairs, as she and the sisters grab their food.
"Not too much." Katrina says, not focusing on it. "Please tell me you two did your work, and not made out for over two hours?" She asks Jade with a small smirk as she helps Victoria with the bowls of mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese, as Jade grabs the dish of chicken.
"Chill out. I only went down on her after we finished our work." Jade says with a hidden smirk, the sisters in front of her.
"Went down on me?" Victoria asks, confused, as she sets her bowl down, looking at her sister.
"I'm not answering that." Katrina says, setting the bowl of macaroni and cheese down and raising her arms in faux surrender.
"What does it mean?" Victoria asks her girlfriend.
"Remember us talking about how a woman can lose her virginity earlier?" Jade asks, setting the chicken down. When Victoria nods in agreement, and Katrina groans in slight disgust, Jade continues. "Going down on someone, is a way for a woman to experience pleasure, without being penetrated, not a lot anyway." She says with a shrug of her shoulders.
"And you know that because?" Katrina asks Jade, a slight glare on her face.
"I might have watched some lesbian porn on my laptop after I started to get interested in Victoria." Jade mumbles, looking away.
"What is lesbian porn?" Victoria asks, getting more and more confused as they talk.
"Well, lesbians are women who date and, enjoy the company, of other women. Porn is, I guess, sex on film." Jade answers with a blush on her cheek.
"Why did you watch lesbian porn?" Katrina asks with a smug smile.
"I was studying." Jade answers simply, filling her plate and taking a bit of chicken.
"Studying for what?" Katrina asks, enjoying Jade's sudden discomfort.
"Just to be prepared." Jade says. "Just in case things got there." She says after swallowing.
"Uh-huh." Katrina says, smirking.
"I am confused." Victoria says, again staring between Katrina and Jade.
"Don't worry about it." Jade says quickly, taking another bite of chicken.
I know I said these would start being the same length as the last, and I'm sorry this is a little shorter. Next chapter, we see the beginning of Christoph's plan. I won't give anything away, but there will be a twist, I hope it'll be a twist anyway, in a later chapter concerning Christoph and those helping him.
Thank you for reading. Hope you enjoyed it. Please review.
Blessed Be.
