"The badgirl and the nerd. Such a cute concept." Somebody chuckled.

"Who are you?" Grace questioned.

"Oh, let me introduce myself. I'm Suzanna. Your competition." Grace just stared at her as if she was drunk.

The sound of her voice only held pure amusement.

"What are you talking about?" Grace questioned stuffing the piece of paper into her denim jacket as her hands rested there; pushing herself off of the radiator.

They both were identical in height, 5,8 frames and had a dangerous aura about each other.

This girl looked completely different to Grace. Blonde haired, a little more tanner and wore all black. Leather jacket and combats boots. Her eyebrows weren't furrowed like Grace's, but her lips were constantly contorted into a smirk.

The small birth mark on the side of her temple resembled a little map, perhaps to her brain. The way her fingernails were painted with a lovely pink, whereas Grace kept hers nice, clean and bare, already showing a neutral pink tone. The eyeliner and lipstick that were painted upon her face accentuated her dark brown eyes which they both had in common.

Grace never wore makeup, because she never needed it. She admired her natural beauty and had never put on anything more than eyeliner when she was younger, but those habits came to a complete halt.

"My name, you wonder." The girl had her hands now stuffed inside her pockets.

"Lila Stone."

Grace walked away as she made her way towards another location as her and Jack were supposed to be discussing about the letter.

"What was that all about?" Jack asked, before shaking his head.

"Right, the letter." Grace pulled out the letter after hearing that, staring at the letter, she understood a few words from it.

"All this says is basic information. I better put this in the file." Jack looked confused and stared at Grace.

"File?"

"I work with the police." Grace answered straight.

"Wait, what?"

"Yeah, I'm trying to hunt this attacker down."

"That's pretty cool."

"I'm gonna go after school, can I take that in?" Grace asked as this had surely shocked Jack.

"Wow, first time asking from me. Uhm — I'm not really-."

"It's up to you. But maybe this could provide some detail." Grace reassured.

"Alright, I'll come with you, after school." Jack nodded his head as Grace shook her head.

"Suit yourself."

"Wait, we should switch numbers in case." Jack spoke as Grace stared at him. Pulling out her phone after a few seconds Grace and Jack switched phones. Both black phones had been fitted with data and saved under as,

'Grace'

'Jack'

The bell rang signalling for the third lesson to begin. Grace and Jack parted ways as they entered the changing rooms. Going inside, Grace opened her locker and saw her locker stained with purple paint, she had swiftly moved to the side as fellow students were now staring at her.

"What the heck is this?" Evangeline asked Grace as Grace was staring at her gym locker.

"Who did this?" Grace asked as Evangeline relayed the question.
