The Mikaelson Twins Return

Giant Spiders

Landon became a tour guide as I wrapped my arm around Hope's, he said "This is the senior hallway, where I spent much of my formative years stuffed in every locker... except this one. That one doesn't open. On your left, you'll find the bathroom. It's where I had my first kiss with a toilet." Hope said "I'm sorry. Is the fact that we're not openly hostile to you make it seem like we're back to being friends?" he said "Uh, sorry. Just, I was going for effortlessly natural. But this is all just making me really nervous. Like, the school and seeing Connor and being with you..." I said "Shouldn't you be talking to anyone you know?" he said "That's easier said than done. There is no way Dana's clique is talking to me unless you have a spell that will make me retroactively cool." Hope said "Well, we'll talk to them, then." he said "It's even worse for you. Trust me. You have no idea how human high schools work. You're the new girl. Might as well be radioactive." a girl walked up and said "I'm sorry. You two look traumatized. Is this loser bothering you?" Hope said "He keeps trying to get us to buy his mix tape." she scoffed "Gross. Well, we're going to lunch. You hungry?" I smiled at her "Famished." 

We walked away with her to the lunch room and sat at a table with other girls and the football boys. She said, "My name is Cheryl and you two are?" Hope said "Im Hope and this is my twin sister Ember." Cheryl ended up giving us headbands with little ears on them Hope's was red sparkly and mine was blue sparkly. She also invited us to try out for cheerleading but neither of us is anywhere near that preppy. We met back up with Landon who said "Hey. Let me guess. Pigtails spilled her guts and confessed to kidnapping Dana and Sasha. Case closed." Hope said "Her name's Cheryl, and not exactly. But she did invite us to try out for the cheerleading team." He said "Who are you right now? And what is that thing on your head?" I said, "It's a gift... from Cheryl." Landon said "You're better than this, Hope. Ember." Hope rolled her eyes "Relax, Eeyore. Dana gave them to her. It's potential locator spell material. Plus, even though Sasha and Connor are dating, Dana was sleeping with him behind her back." he said "Yeah, some clue. Everyone at this school knows Connor's a dick." 

I said "Come on, Landon. Adultery, missing girls... It's like every TV show that old people watch. A "crime of passion," I think they call it." he said "I know Connor. He's made my life a living hell, but he's not a killer. Trust me." I said "Trusting you is what got us into this mess in the first place." Hope said "Look. There he is. So do you want to play good cop or bad cop? Because I don't think "emo cop" is a thing." he said "Oh, very funny. But while you two were off making friends I did some sleuthing of my own. Scarf in Virginia heat? Sounds like a lead, I think they call it." I sighed "Kaleb." and we headed out back. Kaleb had a girl who said "I thought you said we were gonna have lunch." he said "Yeah. Well, uh, one of us is. Don't be afraid." Hope said "Let her go." he sighed "Date's over. It's not me, it's you. Now forget this ever happened and get back to class." Lizzie and MG walked up as Lizzie said "Great. Hope's already here." Kaleb said "Thought we were cool, bruh." Lizzie said "Don't "bruh" him. Second place or not, we know you killed Dana." 

I said "Wait. Dana's dead?" MG said, "Dr. Saltzman said they found her dead from a vampire bite." Kaleb said "I didn't kill her, so y'all need to get the hell outta my face." we heard a scream so Lizzie said "Come on, guys, let's go. It's hero time." Hope said "To the Blondemobile." we got back to the bus and Lizzie said "Not so fast, Kaleb." he said, "I told you, all I did was feed. Torture me all you want to, but my answer's gonna remain the same... because I didn't kill Dana." Landon said, "Uh, he's right." Lizzie said "What, so you're a mind reader now, Landon?" he said "Call it a hunch." we looked to where he was and saw Dana coming from the woods. Dana said "We were on the way to graffiti that mill at your school. It was a harmless prank. But then I got snatched. The next thing I remember, I woke up in a ditch. So enjoy it while you can, Lizzie. I'm sure I look like crap. Oh, my God. What is that?" Hope said "It's... Someone help me out here." Lizzie said "It's the mother of all hickeys. You're fine, Dana. You're just a-a little slutty."
