The primaries

How they came to be

Marinette never thought she would be back like this again. She thought that she had finally brought peace to the school system's very delicate ecosystem. But alas, she supposes that there will always be more weeds in the garden, you just have to be diligent enough to pull them out.
    It all began back in primary school. When a small blonde girl lay in the mud, cornered by some older boys. All the other kids had neglected to help the child because they didn't want to get into trouble as well. That was until a girl from a different class came over, quickly trying to diffuse the situation. "Hey!" she yelled, "get your hands off her you big bullies!". Continuing, she ran over attempting to knock the guys over.
While distracted, the bullies failed to notice another child grabbing the blonde from the mud. She sighed as she looked up at the slightly taller boy in gratitude. "Thank you so much!". She started, "What's your name?" he smiled, "Nathaniel, but you can call me Nath." she nodded, looking back over to the bluenette who was still struggling with the older kids. At that point, Chloe had enough, walking up to one of the boys who were lower to the ground (thanks to the efforts of Marinette) and punching him straight in the eye.
From then on, they were inseparable. Known to get rid of any bullies who would rear their ugly heads, firing, and oftentimes ruining the lives of teachers who would enable them. They were known by many, either feared or respected, they were called the primaries.

~Mari's POV~
"Chlo, don't you ever get bored of this all?" I asked bored, Chloe scoffed. "Of what? Being worshiped?" I sighed, of course, she wouldn't be tired of this, she never really liked the stopping bullies part, she preferred the power it came with, and the followers it gained. "Yes Chloe, being 'worshiped' as you put it. It's not fun anymore, there's no one to take down." At that, Nathaniel looked up from his phone, "Okay, the solution is simple, take a break from it all, pretend we had a falling out, let people get comfortable, then if someone comes along to terrorize the school, we'll be reinstated."
~Third person POV~
With that, ( and a few bets placed on who would be the first to break) the primaries were no more, they assumed roles so different from how they normally were, they were sure they would fool anyone who crossed their paths. The roles were as followed,
A shy wallflower, never rocking the boat, and focused solely on his art. A persona that paled in comparison to Nathaniel's true colors, a thoughtful and caring boy to those who knew him well, yet known for his meticulous schemes, and having eyes all over the school. Silent, yet deadly.
A spoiled brat, only drawing power from her father's money. While Chloe could be known as quite a powerful woman, previously she would have never stooped so low as to take power from family connections, though previously, she didn't need to, as she was naturally good at negotiating, and always found a way to get everything done on time. A quick killer.
And finally, the biggest deception of all, a girl who was normally concise and to the point, having contingency upon contingency, to never be trapped into anything, forced into the mold of a 'blubbering buffoon' as she put it, indulging in the more childish fantasies, such as true love, and always kind. That was the main difference between Marinette and this persona, while her persona was kind to a fault, even if it meant that she would be taken advantage of, Marinette was normally kind, yes, but she would never get walked over. So with that, Marinette, the meticulous (unofficial) leader of the three, was buried into this shell of a girl.
That was until a certain vixen revealed the true colors of everyone in that class.
