The Mission

Three

I paced once I got home very overwhelmed. So recap. 4 new students, pretty sure they are vampires, they want to kill Becca. Why? Still haven't figured that out. Felix hates me cool. Demetri is a flirt.  I know nothing about the others. Why do they want to kill Becca? What did she do to get 4 stangers to come and kill her.

I shook my head. I dont want to think about it.

I sat down on the couch looking at my mothers and fathers urn that was above the fireplace. I miss them so much. I didnt move for awhile.

I closed my eyes my head killing me. I stood up looking at the time.  It was already 5 pm. Have I really just sat there for 3 hours?

I moved and grabbed a syringe filling it up with Toridol For my migraine. I sat and cleaned the area and injected it into my thigh. Nearly instantly my headache went away.

I took my evening medications and went to shower.

I hates showers. I always have, especially afer my parents passed. I causes me so many issues, once I get out my skin feels weird. Its moist but it feels so dry. I hate my hair wet. I cant do anything about it. I just want to rip it out.

I sat on my bed tears forming I hated this feeling. I just feel so gross. I hate thisso much. This is the only reason that I shower once a week. Its like this everytime. I grabbed my brush and worked on my hair but I got too frustraed and I went to the kitchen to rab a pair of sissors. Then I went to the bathroom and took a deep breath. My hair was a little past my breasts. I pared my hair as much as I could and I took the pair sissors and cut off a chunk of hair. Myhair sat right above my shoulders. I did the same to the other side. It was much easie to brush my hair out. I got out a blowdryer and dried my hair. Once my hair was dry I trimmed it up and made it look even.

Much better.

I then went to lay down and fell asleep.

I gasped awake hearing my alarm. "Shit!" I sat up 9:45am.

I rushed and got dressed and brushed through my hair and got to my car and drove to school.

I went to the office immediately. "I'm so sorry... I slept in and I didn't hear my alarm," I said.

"It's okay Izzy," the recepionist said.

"Thank you,"

"Just sign in and head to class,"

I nodded and headed to my firs period.

I sat the empty seat next to Felix and Jane.

I dont want to deal with anyones thoughts today. But since it was the only place open I had no choice. So I walked over and sat down.

I closed my eyes for a moment trying to block out their thoughts but it was uselss.

'Shes late'

I sighed not looking at he two.

"You cut your hair?" Jane asked. I wasnt sure exactly if it was her thoughts but I saw her mouth close

"Yes I got it cut. Hard to keep maintaining it with it down to my abdomen," I said.

"It looks good," she said.

"Thank you," I whispered.

I looked at Felix. His expression was... confusing. 'Seriously Jane we have one job. Dont socalize wih the humans,"

I tried not to laugh at that thought.

"whats so funny?" Felix asked his tone hard.

"Nothing," I said smiling a bit.

'I dont trust her' Felixs thought were... loud.

I bit my lip and tried not to laugh.

"What are you laughing at," he said. Well it sounded more like a demand.

"Thoughts," I simply said.

I glanced at Jane. Her seemingy very amused by this conversatiom, and well so am I.

"Will you just..." he took a deep breath. 'I am going to kill you if you say one more idiotic thing' He opened his eyes, "will you please just stop talking to us,"

"You were the ones talking to me first," I challenged.

'Thats it,'

Shit tii far.

"Felix," Jane warned.

"She..."

"Felix I said enough,"she said in a atuthoritive mannor.

I was silent bur curious.

There was a low growl. Did he just growl at me? Then Felix stood up.  "I will see you at home Jane," he said.

She smiled and nodded.

I like this girl.

"Sorry for that," she said. "He is a bit hot headed. But I wil admit, that was amusing," she said.

"I'm going to have to agree with you there," I said. "Do you like it here?" I asked.

"Mostly, I like the small school settig, me and my family arent around h— people. As we are home schooled. There's some nasty rumors that people are spreading and moreones now that we have arrived," she looked down.

"Yes I've heard the rumors and it is... unacceptable. Becca is always know for starting rumors," I told her.

"How did you know who I was talking about?" She asked

"She's the only one stupid enough to spreak rumors hat there are vampires a the school," I told her, "She also spread a rumor about e about 6 months ago. Whis is why I typicaly just stay to myself," I said.

"May I ask what happened?" She asked.

"Becca and I used to be best freinds. She was the first person I met when I moved to this school. My parents and I moved here about a year ago but we got into a car accident. It was icy and our car went off a bridge. We were all taken to the hospital but my mom and dad didnt survive. I did. I was the first out of the water. My parents died," I stayed quiet for a moment trying to compose myself to finish the story. "She told the whole school I was homeless and I was no living on he streets because I had nowhere to stay." I looked down.

"Is it.."

"No. I still live at home I got my parents life isurace and I work wednesday 5-9 thursdays 4-9 fridays 4-9 and Saterday and sundays its 8-8. I have enough money to keep up the house. I get payed 20$ an hour. So now I am not homeless...parentles yes, homeless no," I finished.

She looked down, "She really as done some damage here hasnt she?"

I nodded at it.

"If you could would you kill her?" She whispered.

"No...death is too easy for hurting someone that bad," I said.

"What would you suggest?"

"I dont know," I sighed. "Death would be to easy,"I said, "She deserves to feel the same I felt. Scared, angry, hurt. Ontop of that she is now spreading rumors for your family," I said.

She took a deep breath and didnt speak for a moment. I listened to her thoughts.

'Maybe we shouldn't kill her. Maybe we could turn her into a pet?'

She sighed "Youre right. She should recieve more then just death," then her eyes went wide. Shit did I really say that. Damnit.

"Hypothetically," I told her. 

She calmed once I said that.

I heard the bell ring. "I'll see you a little later. Also tell Felix to suck it up as we have to be partners... wait is Alec your brother?"

She let out a small laugh. "Yes. He is my twin," she smiled. "I'll see you later," she said and grabbed her bags.
