Chapter 2: Misfit-ting Pieces
Bo and Kenzi Perspective
"Yo Bobo," Kenzi called from the front door. Kenzi paced impatiently, scuffing the bottom of her boots on the tile floors of she and Bo's apartment. Kenzi stared into the mirror settled next to the door, correcting her mascara and bangs before she left. "Bobo come on! We're gonna be late for school," she yelled up the staircase near the door.
"Fine Kenz, come on," Bo strutted down the stairs with her shiny leather jacket thrown over her shoulder. Bo wore her usual black leggings and tight skirt with a jet black halter top.
Kenzi oohed and awed at Bo's appearance as she grabbed the keys to the chevy in the driveway. "Lookin' hot Bobo, got a hot date?"
"It's school Kenzi, and you look nice too, new boots?" Bo slammed the door behind them and locked up. Bo admired the small russian's taste in a dark fur vest with black everything else.
"Yep, got a killer price for 'em, only needed a banshee."
"Wow," Bo looked hurt as she pressed her palm to her chest, "You went hunting without me?"
"Girl gotta eat right? Plus you were, uh," Kenzi paused, "occupied."
"Oh," Bo started the car understanding Kenzi's implication. "Sorry Kenz, got hungry."
"And so did I but I can't have a boy toy for lunch now can I?" Kenzi smirked as they pulled out of the driveway.
Bo smiled as she drove to the school, "Hey but it's a new day, new school year, you excited?"
Kenzi pulled her phone from her bag and began typing something, "I don't know if I'd use the word excited, more like don't give and eff, but yeah you could say excited."
"Who are you texting?" Bo peaked over as she parked the car in a space near the school's main entrance.
"Dyson, he says he'll be at the school with Hale in a few," Kenzi looked up and noticed they were already in the parking lot. "How the hell did we get here so quickly?"
"Kenz, we live like one street over, you should know this by now. What? Too much wolf wang to remember?"
Kenzi smacked Bo's arm, "Ew no, I just don't pay attention," she piped up as she opened her door.
Bo rubbed the side of her arm where the girl had smacked. She grabbed the keys from the car and stuffed them into her purse. The school was a tall gray stone building with too few windows and too many bars on the ones that existed.
"Welcome ladies," they were greeted as they walked through the doors to the commons.
"Good morning Mr. McCorrigan," they both plastered fake smiles on their faces and greeted politely in unison.
"I see an absence of backpacks, is there a reason for that?"
Bo and Kenzi exchanged a glance before answering, "We uh left them with one of our friends, he'll be in soon with them," Bo covered quickly.
"Good, won't want a repeat of last year now would we?"
"No sir," they responded.
"Good, have a nice day."
Kenzi felt a slight pinch on the top of the back of her leg, her hand shot out to grab the source of the pinch. "Dyson!" Kenzi pulled his hand up.
"Why hello there ladies, mind if I ask what happened last year?" Dyson grinned as he reclaimed his hand from the petite girl.
Bo turned and smiled at both Dyson and Hale whom had appeared behind them. "Oh nothing, we just skipped class and never did any work, the usual."
"A lady such as yourself? I'm appalled," Hale gasped dramatically, clutching his chest.
Bo playfully slapped the boy. Hale stood three inches above Bo and three below Dyson who towered the group. "Like you've never done it."
"Excuse me, I believe we were on the topic of you both," Dyson teased.
Kenzi smirked, "But the topic of your hand on my ass has come to view."
Dyson grabbed the girl and pulled her against his muscular form, "How else am I supposed to greet the most gorgeous girl in the world?"
"Ah, but hasn't the wolf learned how to treat a lady?" Kenzi smiled.
"Yes, the wolf know exactly how to treat a lady, however I see no such creature in the vicinity," Dyson teased, receiving a slap on the arm by the girl.
Bo laughed at the exchange with Hale whom had been watching them as well. "As fun as this is," she waved a finger between the two, "class starts in five."
Kenzi and Dyson were left to their farewells as Bo and Hale began walking to class, "You think we'll ever get used to them?" Hale spoke as they ventured to the second floor of the building.
"No a chance," Bo called as they parted ways.
Tamsin Perspective:
"Tamsin," Acacia yelled. "Tamsin wake the hell up or I'll pour water on your lazy ass."
"Errg," Tamsin sighed as she pulled the pillow over her head.
The elder stared at the girl ignoring her orders. Tamsin sprawled across her bed with her sheets hanging by a toe, literally a toe held the blankets from falling completely.
Acacia exited the room for a moment as Tamsin began to stir. Tamsin wiped the sleep from her eyes and ran her hand through the tangles of hair hanging over her eyes.
Acacia came roaring in with a bucket, "I told your bitch ass to get the hell up," she hollered before pouring the buckets contents over the girl.
"What the hell?" Tamsin hopped up, spilling water that had gathered on her bed.
Acacia dropped the bucket and brushed the wetness on the front of her jeans, "Good, you're up. Get dressed, school's starting."
"Starting? Like now?" Tamsin ran from the room.
"Yeah, you have like five minutes, so chop chop."
"What the hell 'Cacia? Didn't you think I should be on time?" Tamsin grabbed a pair of jeans from her dresser and rushed back out of the room leaving Acacia still standing next to her bed with the puddle of water and bucket.
Acacia raised her hands up in defense, "I thought you'd take care of that, you're perfectly capable."
Tamsin ran into her closet and tugged a shirt over her head, "Dammit Acacia, I was asleep!"
Acacia scoffed, "So was I, now lets go."
Tamsin grabbed a bag from her closet and stuffed it with pens and paper before the elder shoved her into a car.
Tamsin was startled when she saw the school, the gray stones made her shake. It had been years since she'd stepped into a school that didn't have souls to collect, this was full of the living. If the people inside were alive that meant she had to talk to them, which wasn't exactly appealing to the young blonde.
Acacia pulled up to the curb of the school and unlocked Tamsin's door. She noticed the face the girl made, "It's gonna be okay Tams, no ones dead yet," she patted the girls shoulder.
"I, I know it's just weird, I go to school."
"Get used to it, these are your new orders, now go get educated so I don't have a stupid valkyrie on my hands."
Tamsin smiled and slammed the door to the car. She was gonna be okay, she breathed deeply. No one was dead, yet.
The bell to the school blared through the halls as Tamsin entered. She pulled out the schedule Acacia had handed her in the car, second floor was her first class.
"Shit," Tamsin mumbled as she began running up a flight of stairs. "So much for on time."
Bo's Perspective:
The instructor stood at the front of the stuffy room carrying a large textbook about a long dead civilization with long dead characters that she expected the class to know. Bo picked at the loose nail polish on her index finger as she ignored the lady in the front.
"Miss Dennis, I would appreciate it if you listened," the teacher dropped the book onto a young boys desk leaving an echoing smack to reverberate.
"And I'd like to-" Bo began to speak.
"I'm here, I'm here," a tall blonde girl interrupted as she entered the room. The girl handed the woman in the front a small pink piece of paper.
"Very well miss, uh," the woman leaned closer to the girl, "how do you say that?"
"Just Tamsin is fine," she replied.
"Yes, um you may sit next to miss Malikov in the back," the woman motioned to the only empty seat in the class room.
Kenzi leaned over and began whispering in Bo's ear, "Who's the blonde?"
The warm air made contact with Bo's ear causing the girl to laugh.
Tamsin shot a glare at Bo and Kenzi who were whispering. Tamsin sat in the seat as blood rushed to her cheeks causing a light shade of pink to form.
Kenzi sat up and looked at the blonde and stuck her hand between them, "I'm Kenzi, you must be new here."
Tamsin turned and reluctantly shook the petite russians hand, "Tamsin."
"This is Bo," Kenzi motioned to her friend who sat on the other side of her.
"Hi," Bo greeted. The blonde looked nervous as she said hello to the succubus. The girls ignored the woman who resumed speaking in the front of the class.
"Hi," Tamsin smiled. "What class is this? I tried to look at my schedule but it didn't say much," Tamsin ran a hand through her loose curls that hung from a small braid at the top of her head that she had done in the car.
"We think it's English, could be History," Bo answered. "Some boring reading material discussion."
Tamsin became worried, "Reading? Was that assigned over the summer?"
"Probably, I didn't read it," Bo watched the girl's face become a darker shade of red. "It's okay maybe there's not a test."
"And Miss Malikov," the woman paced up and down the aisle, "Why did Odin sacrificed his eye?"
"Because played with a bee bee gun?" Kenzi guessed
"No miss Malikov, he sacrificed his eye-"
"He sacrificed it to gain the wisdom of ages," Tamsin interrupted.
"Very good miss Bry.. uh Bry.." the woman struggled with the pronunciation of Tamsin's last name.
"It may be best to just refer to me as Tamsin, the last name doesn't go well," Tamsin smiled politely.
The woman walked back to the front of the room and resumed her lecture on the battles of Ragnarok.
The girls mouths both dropped, "Whoa there smarty pants, I thought you didn't read?"
"I didn't," Tamsin turned to the girls, "Guess this is history."
"How did you know that about Odin?" Kenzi asked.
"I know my myths, it's kinda thing we do at my house."
"Can we see your schedule?" Bo looked over.
Tamsin began digging through the bag of pens and paper she had grabbed, "Uh I don't know if that's a great idea," she removed the paper from the bag.
"It's fine, come on blonde," Kenzi poked the girl. Tamsin handed over the schedule. Kenzi and Bo scanned the page of classes and compared it to the ones laying on their desks.
"Sweet," Kenzi chirped. "We have Chemistry and English together."
"Oh," Tamsin smiled, "how 'bout you," she directed at Bo who was still scanning.
"I'm you with Kenzi during English and we have Math, and gym together. Looks like you're solo for Cross Country, Latin and Psychology," Bo handed the schedule back to Tamsin.
"Damn girl, two phys ed's? You must like running," Kenzi passed the paper.
"Uh, yeah you could say that."
"Hey do you want to sit with us at lunch? Ya know since we have so many classes
together, might as well get to know each other," Bo piped up.
"Yeah that sound cool," Kenzi and Bo smiled at the girl.
Tamsin took a deep breath to relieve the redness sneaking across her cheeks. "Uh I don't know," Tamsin rubbed the back of her neck.
"You don't have too, just an idea," the girls turned back to listen to the teacher.
"No, it's not like no, just I, uh," Tamsin stuttered.
"It's fine Tamsin, you don't have to," Bo shrugged.
"It's just.." Tamsin trailed off.
"Nevermind Tamsin," Kenzi brushed it off.
Tamsin let her cheeks become red, she didn't care much anymore, the girls had dismissed her. Tamsin was used to this, but something about these girls was different, she cared.
