Shroud

Alright Chapter 3! I've gotta say that I didn't know this story was so well liked. It's also highly demanded that Tori become a werewolf. I am neither going to confirm nor deny if that will happen. I more or less have a plan for this story and what it is, is for me to know and for you my readers to find out. And I want to apologize for taking so long to update, I'm not gonna lie, I joined more fandoms. Alright! Let's do this! I hope everyone likes it.

Chapter 3: Learning

"Girls, I'll explain everything later, but right now you two have to get to school," Sikowitz said.

"Yeah," Jade responded heavily with sarcasm "how exactly do you expect me to get in to the damn sunlight?"

Sikowitz took a deep breath "Jade do you have something that you always have with you?" Jade's hand instantly went to her necklace, it was part of matching set she and Beck share. This gesture did not go unnoticed by Sikowitz and he held his hand out expectedly. She took it off, quickly handing it her teacher. "Tori will you please go get Jade a clean, preferably blood free, shirt," Tori went back up the stairs to her room to get a shirt for her goth friend to borrow. Sikowitz pulled a few bottles out of his pockets, each filled with a different liquid. Then he walked over to one of the curtains that Tori closed and reopened it, causing Jade jump back with a hiss. He placed her necklace in the sunlight, followed quickly by pouring the contents of the bottles on to it. The necklace changed to a bronze color briefly before going back to normal. He picked up the now charmed necklace and held it out for Jade. As she was reaching for it he pulled it out of her reach, causing her eyes to change back to the yellow color from earlier. "Now Jade, this is me trusting you," the teacher said earnestly "This necklace will now let you walk out in the sunlight but if you abuse my trust in you I can take the charm away just as easily as I'm giving it to you."

Jade took the necklace and looked at it smiling before she placed it back around her neck. Not long after Tori came back down the stairs with a black shirt in her hand. The goth vampire silently took the shirt to go change out of her blood stained one.

Tori looked at Sikowitz "So…how do you know about this stuff?"

He started laughing hysterically, just like when she asked about the sausage at the Cow Wow. "It's a long story Tori,"

Tori looked at her phone and saw she would have to leave before long or she would be late for school, "Fine...but only because we have to be at school in a few minutes."

"Fair enough," The teacher said "We'll talk about this out after school."

Tori turned her attention toward her dead neighbor "What about him?"

He turned to look "I'll take care of it as soon as you and Jade head to school," he said as Jade started coming down the stairs "Alright Jade," Sikowitz said trying to teach the young vampire "Your emotions is what's going to be difficult specifically for you to control."

Jade's eyebrow arched "What exactly do you mean by that?" agitation obvious in her voice

Sikowitz pointed her "Exactly that!" he yelled causing Jade's eyes to pop wide open, "Jade, your emotions have always been your weak point, and now that you're a vampire, your emotions will be in overdrive."

"What do you mean overdrive?'

"Think of your feelings as though a monkey on a treadmill…"

Jade raised her eyebrow "Confused and tripping around?"

"Exactly!"

"Sure, cuz that makes a lot of sense," the goth sarcastically muttered.

"Here," The crazy teacher said handing her a stainless steel water bottle "take this."

A confused look dawned her face as she took the drink container and all she could smell was the metal it was made of. She opened it and the smell of fresh blood came at her as if she was being punched in the face. She could feel her mouth start watering at the scent of the precious nectar.

"Jade!" The Goth heard, tearing her out of her trance, turned around to see Tori standing there ready to go to school. "Are you alright?"

"Uh yeah.." the obvious uncertainty in her voice while putting the cover back over the opening. After grabbing her bag, Jade almost went to the door but stopped before coming into contact with the sun. All she could do is stare at the now offending light. She could feel the primal desire to jump away from the light and hide in a dark place. She took a deep breath and walked through the sun to the door.

This whole pause did not go unnoticed by both Tori and Sikowitz. The two exchanged a worried glance.

Jade quickly moved past Tori, not meeting her gaze and sitting in the driver seat of her car and looked to be waiting impatiently, so Tori quickly moved and taking her place in the passenger seat. The drive started fairly uneventful until Jade started picking up speed, a lot of speed. "Uh Jade.." Tori started hesitantly

"What?" The vampire asked oblivious to what Tori could be asking about.

"You're kind of going seventy in fourty-five…" the latina pointed out.

"I am?" Jade asked checking the speedometer and quickly slowing down "Sorry about that Vega, I didn't even notice. I'm just feeling the natural instinct to go faster."

As they pulled into the school parking lot, Tori put a sympathetic hand on her friend's shoulder "Jade..I couldn't even pretend to understand what you're going through."

Once Jade pulled the car into a parking space and set it to park, she rested her head against the steering wheel "I really don't know. I just want.." She could feel her throat starting to dry. She reached for the steel water bottle sitting in her cup holder and took a long gulp of the irresistible blood inside. After screwing the cap back on, she sighed and rested her head against the seat. "What am I gonna do Tori?"

Tori wrapped her arms around her friend to give her a reassuring hug, slowly in case Jade protested. At first, Jade sobbed on Tori's shoulder until she started smelling the blood in the jugular of Tori's neck. She could feel her mouth starting to water, the desire slowly building to sink her teeth into the Latina, it took all of Jade's strength to pull away. "Oh Jade I'm sorry, I didn't even think…"

"It's fine," Jade said simply followed by quickly getting out of the car, water bottle in hand.

"I hope we're ready for this…" Tori muttered getting out of the car.

Alright I wanted this chapter to be longer but I figured you guys have waited long enough. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year! By the way I've been watching Doctor Who, That show is brilliant! I also saw Frozen, I officially have a fictional crush on Elsa she is wonderful! Finally I saw Carrie, the remake, it was really good. I was crying watching that movie; I just wanted to hug her through the whole movie. I also might write a Carrie one-shot what do you guys think? Should I go for it? Also I honestly don't know when I'll get to write another chapter but I'll try my best. Please review though it tells me you're all still interested!
