Chapter 2

The rumbling hum of a motorcycle easing closer to the main hall caught his attention.  He frowned, students were not allowed vehicles on campus and visitors rarely came, they too were not really allowed.  The last that had been on the grounds were the police after Lawsons found Nate's body almost three weeks ago.

The motorcycle purred closer till it seemed right outside the classroom window.  He turned his upper body to peer outside.  The engine cut and two riders peeled themselves off the vehicle.  It became immediately obvious that everyone in the classroom had tuned out of the teacher's lesson and into what was happening inside, even the teacher herself.  There was no way this was more police, not in the tight jeans and leather jackets these two were sporting.

Jason Green watched with the rest of his class, every body in the room had somehow managed to creep to the windows, their faces now pressed tightly to the frames as they watched eagerly.  No one got in the way of Jason's view though he hadn't risen from his seat, they knew better.

The front rider turned to their companion and lifted the helmet from his head before taking off his own.  Gasps threaded through the room, "Twins."

Jason smirked, for human eyes the distance and glass between them would have limited vision.  But he could see every detail of their identical faces.  These weren't just twins, they were attractive twins.  They began to walk towards the front entrance, their gait loose and confident, they'd make a wonderful addition to Capricorn.

"Okay then class, that's enough.  Back to your seats," the teacher called out as the visitors left the classroom's line of vision.  She began writing on the chalkboard and he droned out the lesson as she continued as if nothing had interrupted her.

Chrystie and Celine walked to the school painfully aware of the eyes on them through the school's windows.

"It's as if they're animals in a zoo," Celine murmured.

"Huh, feels like we're the ones on display," Chrystie scoffed.  "I think they'd stare harder though if they knew our preferred gender was female."

"Shh," Celine warned, "You know how good some of their hearing is."

"Yeah, yeah," Chrystie pulled the heavy wooden doors open and pretended to cup a breast that was no longer there with one hand.  Celine smacked her hand.

"You're incorrigible," she sniffed.  Chrystie burst into laughter.

"Oh god, oh god.  You look sooo gay when you do that.  Do it again baby bro!  Do it again!"

"Lucas," a voice interrupted.

Celine and Chrystie turned to the newcomer.

"Yes," they chirupped in tandem.  

"Pull it together, we have an image to upkeep."

"Oh come on Duke, don't be such a dick."  Chrystie wrapped her arm around the headmaster and pinched his cheek.  He swatted at her hand and began leading the two towards his office.

"Yeah man, otherwise you'll get grey hair before you're 35.  Oh wait, too late isn't it?" Celine teased.  Duke had just turned 34 a month ago and his hair had more salt than pepper in it.  As the twins cozied up to their godfather, the bell rang signalling the end of classes for the day.

Students poured into the halls but the buzzing took on new frenzy as they caught sight of the new students hanging onto the headmaster.

"Who are they?"

"Relatives?"

"God, how sexy."

"Look at how they're acting, they've got to be lovers."
