Chapter 3:How was School?

Nina and Nona both learned to keep serious faces on and cover each other's backs. Their personalities hardened, that led to them seldom speaking at all, and they both took mind-reading classes so they could talk to each other through their thoughts and expressions.

(Mysti: spiffy, eh? )

Psst. Nona.

Yeah?

There's a guy we can tackle together.

It was true. Nina saw the weakest link in the chain: Corey the school reject. He was the nicest person in the school. XP

That meant daily pain.

But Nina, I always whack myself with my fists. I'm way better with footwork.

And I can't run away as fast as u.

Do we have a period of self-defense together?

Yeah.

So I'll help you with your running and ass-kicking, and you help me out with my punching and grip.

This system was perfect. By the end of the term, Nina was just as speedy as Nona, and Nona clocked everything out cold.

If only Corey could be toughened through being constantly beaten up by the school top bullies. (guess who)

But everything changed when Dr. Cortex arrived on the rooftop…
