None of the smiles had been particularly big, but just tiny smirks, or calm, content ones. I knew no one would miss a jerk like me.
It was a long drive to the school, but they wouldn't risk putting me in a plane, so it involved lots of heavily guarded hotels.
Finally, the mansion was in sight. The driver sighed very audibly from the front and there was more smiling from my bodyguards. They knew I could do nothing about it.
I should explain now my apparel before you start freaking out. I was wearing black, gothic earrings and a black nose ring. I had on sleek, black, high heels and a long flowing black skirt. My shirt was a plain white v-neck tee with a cozy black sweater covering it up. Mostly. My uniform was in the bags.
"Hello Pauline, welcome to Gallagher Academy!" A girl said somewhat cheerily as soon as I stepped out of my limo. There were two of them, and they looked like twins. "I'm Kristal," The same one said, "And I'm Kara!" The other said. The only different thing from each other was the skirts, and the eyes. Both were hetrochromiacs, but the eyes were switched. One had a blue right eye and the other green. "Please, come inside!" They said in unison. Then they started laughing, the only proof they were human.
I did come inside, and I did it quick too. I didn't want to spend more time with the two then absolutely necessary.
They ushered me into the headmistress's office and sat me down in one of the chairs. "Good afternoon Miss Crest." The headmistress said. "I have something important to tell you." I looked at her skeptically.
"This is a school for spies." She said bluntly. "We are the sisterhood. Daughters of Gillian. We have been here in secret for centuries. Only those with clearance know of our existence. Most of our students are descended from spies, but everyone can be trained, though most have heightened IQ."
I gaped at her. I'm not kidding. My mouth was wide open. "So... School for spy genius'. That's completely normal... Um... Are you going to go all ninja and call me grasshopper?" I smirked and kept my mouth extra... Closed.
Sorry, all of these chapters look really short, but the whole beginning takes up like 20 pages on a google doc, so... Yeah. These next chapters are pretty boring so... Bear with me.
