Alas, my dear recaps have been stolen away from me this lovely new chapter. I shall miss them dearly, but they will be in my minds embrace again soon.

Yes, I know the crazy took over for a second, but it's all good! Mrs. Sanity is back from her coffee break. So, on to something I haven't had a chance to do yet… Disclaimers.

(#*TIME WARP*# 3 days)

So it's been a few days since the whole Joker ordeal, and I'm surprised to say the girls were actually quite calm with it afterwards. Oh, and some good news?

Donovan and Magenta are going out on a date tonight. And Ampelio and Layla are a couple. Quick work, right? Well, not everyone's happy about it, though. Will is kinda pissed that one of his new best friends is dating his ex-girlfriend, but he's actually keeping his temper in check. And Zach is extremely jealous of Don. I mean, extremely jealous. And the monster loves to be his friend.

But it wasn't all bad. After the whole dagger thing, Stretch was actually starting to open up to me a bit more. This was surprising, considering that I thought he hated me after the….incident last week, before I was stitched together like a voodoo doll. So maybe things were actually going better for everyone.

Well, except for Kitty.

Kitty Trunal was Zach's younger sister and one of the few girls who actually took a liking to me right off the bat. The others were all jealous since I'm 'the gorgeous sister of the two hottest freshmen boys in the school'. Labeling is a bitch, don't you think? But for some people, it's true. But Kitty doesn't really hear the gossip of the school too quickly, so when she finally heard about my run-ins with Stretch, she went from sweet, caring Kitty to mean, hateful, glaring Kitty.

Yeah, she has a crush on him. Along with quite a few other girls who would love to kill me and use my blood as war paint….yes, it's that bad. And it's scary as hell to be on the receiving end of this freakishly inhumane jealousy.

But let's try to forget about that and keep an eye open on my back for a crazy girl with a knife, shall we? But it's already fourth period, so the day is almost over anyways. And Mr. Brocks was going on about hypnosis and it will always take someone down if it's used in the right medium, blah blah blah, I don't care anymore. All I want to do is go home, take a nice, long bath, and forget about all this craziness.

I was starting to doze off a little bit while he was talking. And then all of a sudden, I have a huge pair of big, bulky headphones over my ears playing some really trippy sci-fi music. I looked up to see everyone watching me, including Stretch, and Mr. Brocks standing to the side with a smug grin on his face. I opened my mouth to say something, but I can't remember now because I fell unconscious.

My head hurt and my eyes felt sore, like I'd just finished an hour long staring contest with the champion. When I picked up my head, my stitches pulling, I heard Mr. Brocks saying something.

"…..can have side effects, just like the medicine you use for headaches, colds and the like. But when you ask questions, you must be specific, or else you may be answered with something completely irrelevant to what you're seeking the answer to. Ah, Miss Grant, so good of you to join us again. And you get five extra points on the next test for your….contribution to the, what is it you children call it? Oh yes, the 'T.M.I. field'." And with that, most of the class started snickering. "And Mr. Martin, five points for you also on your insight of choosing friends." Now they were all laughing, except Stretch, who was looking at me with the most confused face I have ever seen him having. Yeah, now I was curious.

I raised my hand, and Mr. Brocks gave his little 'You can talk' nod. "What exactly did we do to get extra credit?"

"My dear, you and Mr. Martin were 'volunteers' for the hypnosis usage demonstration. And I must say it was the most interesting one I've heard in all my years of teaching here." Once he finished, he gave me a sweet smile and turned back to the front of the class. "Now, for homework tonight, I want all of you to make a list of the types of ways hypnosis is used that you know of, and tomorrow we will discuss the ways that you don't know of. And I want you all to have at least seven listed, or you will be helping the cafeteria ladies prepare lunch for the next week."

The bell rang as soon as he stopped talking, and everyone was already out of their seats and headed for the door. I picked up my notebook and backpack from the floor, tossing one strap over my shoulder and left to go to Mad Science.

"Get your ass over here and tell me what the hell went on in there!" I had grabbed Stretch by the front of his shirt in the hall. I was starting to get really worried and pissed off about what went on in H-S.C. and I was willing to beat it out of someone if I saw it fit. And who's the nearest person to me? Yeah, Stretch. And he wasn't happy.

"How the hell should I know?! I'm just as curious and pissed off as you are about it! Now let me go!" He wrenched free of my vice-grip on his shirt and stormed down the hallway, heading to his next class. He was at the corner when he turned back to me. He mouthed 'Just shut up!' and continued to his class. Fine. He could be a jackass for all I care.

I turned to go to Mad Science, but I stopped. 'Wait, haven't I heard this somewhere before?' I shrugged. Whatever. I took a step forward and, yaaaay, I'm literally swept off my feet by none other than my new friend Speed. And let me tell you, it's not fun to suddenly be picked up and run off with at extreme speeds. It's frightening as hell and the wind screws up your hair so much there's no real point in fixing it.

Speed finally stopped in an old classroom and put me down. And being a smart cookie, he backed away from me. I wasn't happy in the least. "Why did you bring me here?" I snapped it at him, feeling my wings twitch beneath my clothes in irritation. Yes, my wings twitch when I get mad, or when I'm caught off guard. Deal with it.

He gave me a small smile. "I was wondering if you would go with me and Lash to the city tonight. We usually go by ourselves, and we just drive around until we find someplace to hang out if the mood strikes us. And I'm not asking you out on a date, I just think you're fun to hang out with and Lash needs to loosen up. So, agree or pass?"

Aaaaaand my wings twitched again. Hang out? Well, Speed's fun to hang around if you want a good laugh, and Stretch isn't that bad either. And I didn't have much homework tonight. I don't think the rest of the family had anything planned tonight, either.

"All right, what the hell. I'll go with you. Did you have someplace in mind?" I might as well try to have some fun.

"Yeah, I found this club the other night that looks pretty cool. Wear something you can dance in but still be comfortable wearing, okay?" I nodded, already thinking of a certain outfit. It involves leather, denim, and lots of skin. My usual party attire, but they don't need to know that. "Oh, and I was hoping that you wouldn't mind if we picked you up? Lash's parents are back in town, so a random girl coming over in party attire to meet their son and go out for the night…? Yeah, not the greatest of first impressions. It happened for an actual date, and…..yeah, it got a little out of hand. So what's your address?"

I smiled. 'Aww, wittle Stwetch had a date go baadd! Ha! That's awesome!' "I live over on Conning Avenue." I waited for his response, since it looked like he was thinking reeeaalllyy hard about that bit of info.

"….Wait, are you saying that you live just two streets over from Lash?" I nodded. "….Well, holy shit, you're not just a badass pretty face, are you." Wing twitch. "Anyway, we'll be over at about six thirty. Do you have to be home at a certain time, warrior princess?"

I gave him the most threatening glare anyone would be scared of. "Better watch that tongue, Speed, it's about to be ripped out of your head. And no, I don't." And like making the finalization known to everyone, the bell rang at the last word. "Dammit, now I'm late to Medula's. Thanks, Speed." He just smiled.

"No problem. See ya!" And he zipped off. Twitch.

Woop-de-fuckin-doo.

OH...MY GOD. I'm SOsorry! I swear I thought I had updated in March! T~T I feel like such a horrible person now, making you guys wait for almost an entire year! I swear I didn't mean to!

But what will they do when they 'hang out'? Shop? Movie? Crash a party and get drunk? What do you guys think?

P.S. My senior year is about to start (next week, oh shit!), so I may not be able to update for a while.

Love you all!

Wisty

Don't blink.
