''-Speaking through their mental link

Chapter One: Schadenfreude

"I trust that these misunderstandings can be worked out Principal Fadley."
"Oh, I very much doubt that Mrs. Pierce! They caused and started a fight, seriously injuring five of our students!" sneered a very greasy man from behind the huge desk in front of them that could have easily been three times his size. "These two girls are menaces! Both of them! You should be thankful I put up with their shenanigans as long as I have!"
The shorter of the two girls scoffed, as the other nudged her to quiet her sister. Their mother turned slightly in her chair, to glance at the two of them with a narrowing of her eyes before turning back around to face the weasel-like visage of the man in front of her, which contorted as his eyes thinned into a glare. He indicated toward the girls with his finger and got up from his chair, which, to the humor of the girls was actually taller than him.
"I think everything has been said," Principal Fadley's features warped into a victorious grin as he looked at the three. "These two EX-students may clean out their lockers and depart the premises. Immediately."
The taller of the two stepped forward raising her hand in an unsure manner.
"So does that mean we aren't coming back after the weekend?"
This was merely answered by a glower from the miniscule man and a snort from her sister.
"Yes! That's exactly what it means!" hissed Principal Fadley.
As their mother got up, they all made their way to the door knowing they were gonna hear it when they got in the car.
"Ungrateful children!" was the last thing they heard as the door closed behind them with a deafening 'click'.

-A few hours earlier-

Jayde looked over to her sister's desk as the teacher droned on about… whatever the class was. Her sister was doodling again, though what it was Jayde couldn't exactly figure out. After a few minutes of trying new angles to see what Talulah was doodling she gave up and went back to her new Stephen King book.
"Psst!"
Jayde looked up to see the whole class looking at her. Inwardly, she blanched. Dammit, the teachers always did this to her. "What?"
Mr. Lain looked towards her with his arms crosses waiting.
"Did you need something or did you just call on me for no reason? 'Cause honestly I was just getting to a really interesting part where this guy was threatening another guy with a gun in his an…"
The rest of Jayde's sentence was cut off by a red-faced, Mr. Lain telling her to leave class.
Winking at her sister, she picked up her backpack and left, Talulah shaking her head annoyed to see her twin get kicked out of class once again. This was becoming a tradition with Jayde throughout the years of high school.

Waiting for next period, and her sister to get out of class, she went to the library to get some more reading done.
Before she knew it, Tilly (as her twin preferred to be named) was in front of her. "Did you have to do that Firefly? You know it's just gonna get you in more trouble." She said slightly disappointed.
"Oh come-on Sprite! Did you see his face? It was totally worth it! I mean really, it's not like they can expel me for something I'm reading." Jayde thought for a second before adding with a grin, "Unless of course I brought one of our 'romance' novels to school and read it aloud."
Tilly turned bright red and swatted her sister's arm. "You are absolutely horrid!"
"What can I say? I'm a bad ass." Jayde winked playfully, packing her book into her bag before getting up and putting her arm around Tilly's shoulders. "C'mon baby girl, we gotta get to class."
"Wait!" Tilly said as her feet stopped moving.
Jayde's eyebrows went up in a silent question.
"I promised I'd meet with someone during break…" Tilly explained somewhat ashamedly, not meeting her sister's eyes.
"You didn't…" Jayde looked at her and her silence spoke for her. "Talula Lillian Parry! You swore!"
Tilly winced at her sister's tone. "I know! I know. I'm sorry. I just… and then… he just… grr…and it happened." She explained with half hand gestures and weird faces. Then, chancing a look at Jayde's eyes, she could only grimace at the look of 'you are the biggest ridiculous half-wit with all those bodice rippers' kind of face her sister was wearing.
"I don't want to hear it. I've got class." With that she turned on her heel and left the library, leaving Tilly in uncertainty as she walked down the halls.
"Lula?"
Tilly was so immersed in her thoughts, she jumped at the voice. Putting her hand to her chest, she tried to calm her heartbeat. "Katherine! You scared me! Why are you in library? I thought you had Chem class next?"
Katherine grinned maniacally, "I'm sorry. Were you looking for someone else?"
She forced a small smile, her mind still on Jayde. "No, I was heading to Government actually." With that, Tilly tried stepping around Katherine but out of nowhere, Crystal stepped in her path. These two wouldn't go anywhere without the other. They were both bitches in crime; and see as how they were there together could only mean the addition to the debris they always left in their wake, but never got the boot for.
"See, now I don't believe that. Do you?" Katherine asked Crystal, who replied with a "No." along with a giggle.

"So you don't have Chem class next?" Tilly asked backing up to try and scoot around the library tables. "Well, my mistake. I better go before I miss that big government test I've got."

"Oh and I guess you wouldn't want to miss that." Crystal was eyeing the door.

"Course not." Tilly couldn't see how she deserved their menacing attentions, and would rather just move on with her day.

"That's what I thought." Katherine put an arm around Tilly's shoulders in a way that spoke that there was really no way of getting out of this.
Tilly saw other girls come around her and swore silently to herself, opening up her mental link that, as twins, the girls shared.'Trouble. By the History classroom.'
A snarky reply came back, 'So you ditched me to get your ass stomped socially?', but Tilly ignored her knowing she deserved it. All that mattered was she was on her way. Her attention was brought back to her situation when Katherine started talking again.
"See, someone brought it to my attention that Brian was supposed to meet you today." Her voice was full of hinted malice, and the other five girls around her in turn glared even harder toward Tilly.
"I was, but…" But Tilly was cut off by a sharp slap to her right cheek.
"Learn a good lesson girls. Sluts never prosper." Her hand reeled back for another hit but was stopped by another voice entering the hallway.
"Now that's a different twist. Teaching about yourself now-a-days KittyKat?" Jayde's sarcastic voice filled the corridor and Tilly sighed in relief that she wasn't alone.
"How dare you!" Katherine screeching voice made the twins eyes twitch slightly.
Jayde walked around, never staying in one spot as she took in the girls Katherine had at her disposal this week. "Is it daring to tell the truth? Guess that would make sense since I know you never do it."
Tilly had to bite her tongue to stop a snicker from escaping the confines of her mouth. They were still in trouble, and it was doubtful the worst that could happen was Tilly's red cheek.
If Katherine's eyes were flaming before, they were absolutely blazing now. She walked up to Jayde and slapped her soundly on her cheek, causing her head to turn.
Jayde brought her hand up to her cheek, rubbing it slightly, her eyes sparkling and a small grin playing on her lips.
Tilly's eyes widened in recognition, 'Bad! Only badness!' was the message sent to Jayde.

To which her sister just turned around and gave her an innocent look.

'You really think I am going to let you pull me into this?' Tilly turned a pointed look to her sister.
'You know you wanna…' And with that thought, Jayde faced Katherine, who, although she was at least a good half-foot shorter than her, rose herself to her height. "Oh, I was so hoping you'd do that." And with those words, her fist flew up and hit Katherine directly in the nose, causing a crack to echo through the hall.
