Mrs. Grey creaked open the grand library chevy door, walking in with her black heels clicking on the floor.
"Ladies," she said "Since your parents won't be able to make it, I'm going to have to drop you both home"
"Should've gone back when i had the chance" Mrs Grey muttered under her breath as Vivienne let out a dramatic cough and Lynn tried her best not to laugh.
"Anyways, get your things together and hop on, i have some work to do too, we don't have time" she clapped her hands together. They both noticed the newly polished silver swarwoski on her ring finger and smirked at each other.
The man that had dared to marry Mrs Grey would have to bear the sneers and glares of a lifetime, although she was in a way, absurdly attractive, with her timeless wide green eyes and the little mole on her cheek.
"Lets go Vivi, she has some work" Lynn nudged at her friend.
The ride back home was bumpy to the point they both felt nauseaous and carsick. It had been monsoon and the heavy rain did not help with all the muddy and rocky roads in that area.On top of it all, Mrs Grey's driving skills were questionable indeed to make them wonder if they'd ever even get to the main road.
"Will you both please try your best and maintain your eitiquette, I would not like to see any..barf..in my car" Mrs Gray shot a dirty look at them.
"If she can get laid, why can't I" Lynn whispered at Vivienne's ear.
"I feel sorry for her significant other" Vivienne looked at Mrs Gray.
"As I had said, i have some work to do, and it shall take about half an hour. Do as you both wish, just don't barf on my car will you, ladies?"
"Yes ma'am" they spoke in an exagerratedly bored tone to which Mrs Grey pretended not to notice. She soon disappeared amidst the slight drizzle and dust.
"What do we do now?" Lynn glanced at her watch
"Lets look around a bit, at least better than sitting in this stuffy ass broken off-brand fake mercedes"
They both walked around a bit, it was an unfamiliar area, or perhaps it was just the rain. They walked into a few old shoe shops, candy stalls and little open cafès
Thankfully they both had some money, and bought themselves some sweet bubbling hot tea.
Amidst all the chattering and drinking the tea and joking around, they hadn't realised of how far off they'd gotten into the alley.The slight drizzle now turned into a heavy downpour and they both started panicking.
"Atleast we'll have our faces on the papers tomorrow"
"I hope they choose a good picture, without my side profile"
"i hope they choose a picture that brings out my eyes"
They walked a bit more, their shoes were now dirty and their legs were starting to get tired.
They almost walked right past it, when Lynn poked Vivienne at her shoulder
"Ow, miss girl are you trying to puncture a hole in ther- "
In front of them was an old and antique looking shop in the antique building .There was a huge old sign at the building, just written 'thrift shop'.
"its about to thunder anyways, lets get in"
Vivienne nodded her head as they walked into the Thrift shop that would change their lives.
"Yes, but isn't it odd?" Vivi questioned as she followed Lynn who was now observing and inspecting everything and anything displayed in the shop.
"This is like straight out of a dark academia themed book" Lynn said softly, as she picked up a huge odd looking book from one of the display shelves.
"Seems like a shop from Ketterdam." Vivi said, as she found herself admiring a particular shelves with knives. Not normal ones, these ones were embossed, carved, jeweled and decorated. They were in all shapes and sizes, there were ones that were as tiny as a toothpick while others that were taller than her.
"Hey, vivi" Lynn called and vivi turned to see the brunette wearing a hat made of black dull leather, "This screamed Kaz to me."
Vivi giggled, then took a knife from the shelf, pointing it to Lynn. "Inej"
"Those are beautiful!" Lynn exclaimed loudly, as she scampered to the shelves were the knives, daggers and swords were displayed.
As Lynn was inspecting a knife. A loud thud, startled the two. Vivi turned around to see a boy looking not too elder than them, hastily getting up from the wooden armchair he was sitting on.
"I see, you lot have finally arrived." The boy with the furry brows said in an odd accent.
"We actually lost ou-"
"Yes, you are late and boss won't be very happy." He said cutting off Lynn as he made his way to a large wooden lever.
Vivi noticed the boy was wearing a long elegant purple coat. His sandy brown hair, tangled and messy. Dark under eyes prominent even from the distance This boss of his must be a real dick because this poor lad looks like he hasn't slept for months, Vivi thought.
Lynn shook her head, "No, you are mista-"
"Let us not make any more haste." The boy huffed out, as he pulled down the wooden lever. Vivi felt a weird crawling sensation up her throat that made her almost throw up. She felt like she was spinning, no the room, it was spinning. But how?
The feeling abruptly shut off completely. She looked at Lynn who was holding her stomach uneasily beside her. Lynn had felt it too.
"It's always terrible for the first time." The boy stated.
"Let's get out of here" Lynn said standing up straighter as she threw a nasty look at the boy who simply smiled.
Lynn pulled vivi with her as they got out of the store only to bump into something or perhaps someone.
They both rush out of the shop, the shopkeeper giving them a creepy grin.
While they both were busy trying to scare the shopkeeper back and get out the shop as soon as they could, they bump into a tall man.
He's young, rather about their age, yet he had the gaze of someone's who had mere experiences one normally didn't.He was wearing a brown coat, one could see the guns protruding at his sides.He almost looked, Familiar to a book character, a rather favourite one, apparently
Vivianne could not stop herself .
"Are you cosplaying Jesper Fahey, cause you just did a great fucking job" she said excitedly
"Ooh lala who's the Wylan though, and What's with the clothes bestie are they on amazon?" Lynn looked at him, surprised and happy at the same time
"Gheezens, How do you ladies know about me ?" Jesper frowned then smirked at an afterthought, "Ah must be my charms no wonder i am famous among ladies and men. But how the hell do you know about Wylan and well us?"
"Oh, he's really into character. Good job buddy. Too bad, kit got the role of jesper in the show." Vivienne, smiled and lynn grinned.
Jesper looked at the two with furrowed brows, who were these strange ladies. "See, if you are Van Eck's people better confess now and go before i take you to Kaz and he threatens you."
Lynn looked at the guy who looked so very accurate to Jesper Fahey, a character they adored from hers and vivi's favourite book six of crows, "Uh you can cut the act out, now..?"
"Maybe he has a friend cosplaying Kaz too. "Vivienne said brightly as she pulled on jesper's coat like a child, "Take us to him. That would be cool."
"Vivi, we need to head back to Mrs. gray-"
Lynn stopped, as she finally looked around to realize that they were in a completely different place than before, Instead of the cafe shops and cute stores. Now, there were a bunch of street stalls, men playing cards, a fight starting somewhere behind them and women wearing gowns gossiping and drinking wine.
