Chapter 3 – Fuck's Sake!
Diva's POV
It's nice to come back to school; a new start is always refreshing. The first day in a new school ought to be a miraculous experience. It's a new start. A new chance at happiness.
Of course, it is thoroughly torturous, has your dearest sister antagonized a local shape shifter-pack. That usually leaves everything discombobulated. It is even more catastrophic, if you just happened to be looking for that particular shape shifter-pack for the past six months.
All of these feelings of disbelief are overbearing, but the good news is, I finally finished the Twilight books. To be honest, it's a bit unrealistic. I mean sparkling vampires? It's a bit over dramatic for my tastes. I wanted blood and guts but instead all I got was a walking disco-ball. To be honest I am ashamed of myself for selecting that horrendous book out of the library we call Earth.
Of course, I would take this unrealistic, over-dramatic piece of fiction over my life any day. A perfect example of a reason for this would be, just today. After that 'show' Jinx put on in the cafeteria earlier, we bolted. I was thankful for the silence on the trip home, but that all seemed to be a hoax, because as soon as we got home, all hell broke loose.
Flashback
The door slams shut, ending whatever unspoken agreement of silence that had been made. Aria yelps at the sudden loud noise. Alex glares at Jinx and Jinx meets her stare with one of her own, just as intimidating and full of confidence.
"What were you thinking?" Alex suddenly explodes, "Oh that's right; you weren't!"
A mixture of looks floats across the room. Alex is obviously seething with anger, Aria spares Jinx an apologetic gaze, carefully avoiding Alex's line of sight. While I look on with interest, wanting nothing to do with it but still, the anticipation of what is going to happen next intrigues me. Jinx, on the other hand, seems pretty calm about the whole situation, idly twirling a strand of her hair between her fingertips. Still, I see the subtle guilt in her eyes.
Alex, seeing Jinx has no intention of answering her, carries on, "And what was going on with you and that one guy from the pack, Seth? I didn't like the way he was looking at you, never mind the teasing stares you were sending back!" This gets Jinx's attention, she glances up and I notice a spark in her eyes. Her normally chocolate brown eyes suddenly seem to glitter and light up at the mention of his name.
And yet she denies it "I don't know what you're talking about" she says, seeming to honestly believe her words. But I know better, something is going on between those two whether they know it or not. In all the books I've read, I must have stumbled upon some shape shifter legends…
Oh my god. Seth has imprinted on Jinx. Holy shit.
She glances up and I shoot her a knowing look. She responds with one of pure confusion, scrunching up her face and raising an eyebrow. My head snaps down to my book at my sudden realization; she doesn't know. A shape shifter is desperately in love with my sister and she doesn't know. Maybe its best she doesn't know.
Suddenly it is hard for me not to burst out laughing. I give out a choked snort. They look at me. I guess I'm not the type of person to suddenly start laughing but I just realized the boy would have to break it down to Jinx... Poor guy.
End of Flashback
After this explosive, unnecessary, utterly pointless yet entertaining and informative argument, we decide to spy on the shape shifters. Meaning Jinx sneaks off and we follow her.
The entire forest is thick with the smell of supernatural. I can't believe we missed it in the cafeteria. I guess the human mass smell masked it. Or we are idiots.
We stalk Jinx through the dark forest until eventually she whirls around, discovering our presence. "Why, in the name of unicorns, are you following me!" she hisses, unloading her frustration with those few words. Aria giggles as always when unicorns are mentioned. She loves unicorns. I think they're evil.
Instead of answering, Alex walks past Jinx, bumping into her shoulder with force, shooting her an icy glare. The impact makes Jinx take a step back but she doesn't lose her footing.
They look like complete opposites of each other. Where Jinx's hair is furious red, Alex's hair is shiny auburn with streaks of deep, cold blue. Alex's clothes just shout composed, (which is kind of ironic; you know because if you're composed you usually don't shout) she wears straight light blue jeans and a black jacket over a red button-up blouse. Nice and simple.
As the two frenemies continue through the thick forest, I take a look at Aria. She has tears in her eyes. She's a naturally kind and happy person and she hates when we fight. I enclose on her and give her a gentle push in the direction that Jinx's and Alex's voices are now disappearing.
She looks at me surprised, I'm not the kind of person to offer moral support, yet she gives me a small smile.
"WHAT THE FUCK?" Jinx's voice echoes across the forest, loud enough to make the birds soar into the sky and squirrels run for cover. Aria breaks into a sprint and I follow slowly. Surely, Jinx is smart enough not to scream her head off in the face of danger, but who knows, I could be wrong, I have been before.
When I am about ten meters away from them, I see that they are standing in a meadow* and I hear Aria's hysterical laughter and Alex singing, "Seth and Jinx sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G." I join them just in time to see Jinx mercilessly throwing a punch at Alex. Unfortunately**, Aria steps in front of Alex, shielding her from the blow.
Jinx's fist stops mere millimeters from her face and the angry expression on her face transforms into one of bewilderment and guilt.
That's when we hear the voices.
"Dude, are you deaf? I'm telling you I heard something," says a deep, gruff, unrecognizable voice. The smell of shape shifters, however, grows stronger. We quickly take cover, climbing on trees; high enough so we can't be seen but low enough so that we can see.
Two muscular figures appear, both of them tan and with jet black hair which is cropped short. They would look almost identical if it weren't for the obvious difference in age. One of them is taller and looks to be about nineteen; the other appears to be much younger and is around thirteen. They both have the same incredulous look on their faces as they strain to hear a phantom sound.
As we lie motionlessly in the trees, we barely breathe so as not to give away our location.
"ACHOOOO!" we all glare at Aria who is covering her nose and shooting us an apologetic look. The two heads snap up and look directly at us, "Ok, you have to believe me this time!" the younger boy exclaims, gesturing our way. The older one just pushes him aside.
"Who are you?" he questions us, his voice ringing throughout the entire forest. Following Jinx's lead, we each leap down from the trees and confront them.
"Well I'm Jinx, what's your name, pretty boy?" She says as she stretches her arms above her head, the hem of her shirt lifting slightly exposing her flat abdomen. The boys look at the bare flesh and the younger one gulps audibly. This is rewarded with a warning glare from Alex to Jinx, who slowly lets her arms down and places them on her hips.
"I'm Jared" says the older one, "and this is Collin," He gestures to the other one. We each stare intently at each other until eventually, the silence is broken by Aria's chirpy voice, "I'm Aria!" she declares.
"And I'm Alex." Alex reluctantly mutters. They all stare at me expectantly but I don't utter a word. I've often been told I'm not a girl of many words, and I think that's about accurate.
"And who's this?" Jared questions, "Plain Jane?" he suggests, "Little Pink Riding Hood?" He makes a reference to my pink streaks. I bet he feels smart. I'll just let him keep lying to himself.
"That's Diva" Jinx answers. I glare at Jared and Collin as they attempt to stifle their laughter. I show them exactly how I feel with a certain finger which is situated right in the middle in-between my other fingers. Jared raises his hands in defeat while saying, "Whoa, feisty this one, isn't she?"
He smirks at me and I send him back one of my sweetest smiles. I'm pretty sure it's so sweet it makes vanilla seems spicy. Jared's eyes widen in shock.
"So," I prolong the one syllable for as long as possible. I quickly change my expression to one of evil.
'Those are the werewolves?'
* We were going to describe the meadow but we ended up writing a story about a perverted, cannibalistic baby whale so... Just imagine a fucking beautiful meadow.
**We kind of made it sound like Diva wanted Jinx to punch Alex but in reality we're just too lazy to change that.
A/N from Moni: I know we haven't updated in a long time but the last few weeks have had been crazy. Besides we have two weeks off now so we'll probably update like 3 chapters! :D
We got our friends to draw the characters but we've no idea how to show them to you so if someone knows a way please tell us. :)
Diva was supposed to be kind of quiet and just smart and she was supposed to use big, smart words but we ended up making her a quiet bitch, leeching on people's misfortune... I like this Diva better!
How many of you have heard about Kony 2012? Do you support it?
That's it form me! Long live rock n' roll, stop ACTA, SOPA and PIPA and just enjoy roaring like a dinosaur!
A/N from La'ura (Laura): Like Moni said we haven't updated in ages and also I can tell you right now that she's lying, we're terrible people and we will probably most definitely not get three chapters done we'll be lucky to even finish one, we were lucky to even finish this one! We're evil unicorns... :(
And I just realised that Moni didn't explain why the chapters name is Fuck's Sake!, well that is simply because this chapter is a dipshit we got so frustrated with it and so she just typed that so anyway... yeah... bye! :D
Oh and also please review! :)
