[attr="class","afir2"]A MONSTER WITH TWO HEADS
[attr="class","afir3"]“There must be something in the water. Our love ain’t nothing but a monster with two heads. I turn to you, you’re all I see. Our love’s a monster with two Heads and one heartbeat. We just got caught up in the moment.
[attr="class","afir4"]The bell would ring exactly three times before the sounds of chairs scraping against the floor filled the air. Shortly after, the sound of students gossiping and laughing filled the air of the classroom of the esteemed high school. Girls were laughing while boys got louder about their weekend plans. One could overhear the mentions of parties or going out with a slight echo ringing behind their words. The room they were in was fairly large- looking more like a lecture hall at a university than a classroom that belonged to eleventh graders. The long desks that held the students were made from dark rich oak and the chairs were all carved from similar wood with decorative etchings and red velvet cushions.
As the students buzzed about the room, the energy of the weekend being here and class being over was obvious. All of the students were ready for the weekend. Almost all of them had already stood up and were gathering into their cliques to discuss their plans. One lone student stood out as she sat at her desk. The student was a girl with fair blond hair going down to her neck that held a gentle curve. Her petite body sat alone at a desk much too large for her. She was shuffling in her seat as her hands reached to put all her items away. The items in front of her were all different manners of pink. There was pink make up, pink pencils, pink notebooks and even pink erasers. Yes, by god she had weird pink erasers. The bag she was meticulously cleaning and organizing was also a bright hideous pink.
While the girl continued her organizing, the eyes of one of the groups of girls fell on her. One of them would approach her, grinning as she waved towards the girl. ”Hey! Jo Jo!” she sang out while approaching the blond. The other girl was rather pretty. Her sleek black hair and slim face was covered in tasteful makeup. Her bright blue eyes widened as she smiled. The other girl would lean over Joe's desk and look at her pink items with a cocked brow. ”Wow you really like pink, huh?” she hummed happily while picking up a small pink lipstick.
Joe smiled widely in response. ”Yep! My dad got me a whole set of Pretty in Pink last night!” she gabbed happily. Pretty in Pink was a very expensive brand of make up. At the mention of this, the black haired girl seemed to frown for a moment, but then she began smiling once more and changed the subject. ”So! Did you hear that Ricky was sent to some public high school for that fight last week?!” she asked- smiling widely despite the fact that the boyfriend of one of her close friends had been pretty much expelled. Joe would nod along as she spoke. ”Yeah, how's Jenny taking it?” she asked, some concern on her face.
”Jenny's been really down! She can't even text him or anything since they confiscated his phone,” explained the girl. Then, she'd eye Joe with a mischievous grin and narrow eyes as the blond spoke. ”Oh that's awful! I hope he gets transferred back soon!” As she spoke, the other girl leaned forward. ”Soooo~ We were wondering, you don't have anything planned this after noon... Do you want to do us a favor?” Joe would smile brightly before nodding. ”Eh? Sure, what it is?”
”We wanted to ask if you could deliver some letters and pictures to Ricky since Jenny can't text them, but Jenny's family is going out of town for the weekend so she doesnt have time and the rest of us have clubs and prep!” The girl's voice was coated with sugar as she carried on. ”Could you pretty please go drop them at his dorm at the new school?” Meanwhile, Joe's smile seemed to drop a bit. Didn't Ricky get sent to a delinquent school? The school that was always in the news for fights and dangerous activities. She rubbed the back of her head hesitantly. ”Er... I don't know...”
”PLEASE Jo Jo! You're the only one who can do it!” The black haired girl was practically begging now. Her large blue eyes stared directly into Joe's own for several silent moments. Finally, the girl caved. ”Erk! Alright fine! I'll take him the pictures!” As Joe caved, the black haired girl would practically push an envelope into the blond's hands. Then, before she could even react, the black haired girl was darting out of the class with her friends while waving at Joe. ”Toodles Jo Jo! Make sure those get there before it gets dark! That side of town can be kinda dangerous after dark~!”
With that, Joe was left there in the empty classroom with the envelope she had promised to deliver. Great. Sighing, she moved to pack up all her stuff more quickly. Joe was sure nothing bad would happen, but she did just want to get it done. There were about ten different Korean soap operas and Netflix at her house just calling her name. So, after gathering her stuff and slipping on her coat, Joe pulled out her phone and moved to leave the class. As the girl walked, she adjusted her pink scarf. Her coat was a light creme with pink trimmings. It looked very nice with her school skirt and the pink boots she wore- or at least Joe thought it did.
On the way to the school, Joe found out many things. The first thing she found out was that it had started snowing during class that day. So, as she walked through the crowded streets, the girl was grateful she had chosen to wear her boots and tights. The snow wasn't too heavy, but one could see the white slush piling up at the edges of the sidewalks where pedestrians didn't trample it. Soft white snowflakes still fell gently, so that was nice. The second thing she learned was that the school Ricky had been to was named Public High School Number Five Five Two. She had never really bothered to learn the name before. Up until now, the school had been some mysterious weird thing that was mentioned in the news. She had never really paid attention except when her fathers shook their head and spoke about wasted potential.
The last thing Joe learned was that Public High School Number Five Five Two was actually within walking distance. Sure, it was a bit of a long walk, around twenty five or so minutes, but it wasn't that bad. Joe definitely didn't want to go through the chaos of taking the subway during rush hour just to shave ten minutes off her commute. So, walking was the preferred route for sure- even if it was a little nippy. Joe had even managed to find a route that took her through some of the nicer neighborhoods around the school! So, smiling brightly, the girl slipped her pink ear buds in and began her walk. Yes even her ear buds were pink. Shut up.
When Joe finally got the school, the girl couldn't help but gawk. She stood frozen at the entrance gates to the school. Her dark blue eyes widened in awe at... how incredibly shitty the school looked. There was graffiti everywhere, and where there wasn't graffiti, there were large cracks and craters in the concrete and school walls. There were even red stains over some of them. What the hell happened to this school on a daily basis!? Public High School Number Five Five Two was a complete and stark contrast to her own private school. Luckily, the school appeared to had been let out around the same as her own, so the yard was pretty much empty.
If the courtyard hadn't been empty, Joe wasn't sure if she would have entered the school grounds if it had students in it. She wasn't afraid or anything, but Joe really liked her coat okay. Joe could handle delinquents and stuff, but if her coat got dirty- she'd be annoyed. It was a new coat after all! So, Joe was silently thanking whatever was up in the sky for there being no students around... because of her coat after all.
And then she saw the auditorium. And then she saw the giant explosion of electricity as it tore through the roof. And then she decided to get the fuck out of there. This school was NUTS.
As Joe turned to leave, she found herself facing three taller boys. They all wore varied forms of Public High School Number Five Five Two's hideous blue uniform, so she could tell they were students from the rather troubled school. The three of them would look down at her, instantly recognizing her as someone not from their school. ”Eeeey what are you doing here? You definitely don't go here!” one of them hummed as they loomed over her. Joe found herself stepping back bit by bit. ”Hey, you think she might get in trouble for being on school grounds? Regulators don't take kindly to trespassers!” The group would laugh before one of them reached to try and grab the girl by the shoulder. ”Why dont you come chill with us in our dorm? We can have a fun time and keep the regulators from getting ya'!”
As he reached for her shoulder, the blond would turn and high tail it out of there. The girl would end up running deeper into Public High School Number Five Five Two's campus. As she ran, Joe looked over her shoulder to see the three guys giving chase. Crap! Why had she even agreed to come to this stupid school!? The girl would panic internally as she continued to run. She'd try to hide behind one of the older looking school buildings, but the guys seemed to know their way around the school well enough to have split up. Joe could see one of them up ahead of her while another one chased her. In a moment of panic, the girl stopped and moved to climb a fence that ran along the back of the school. The top of the fence was mostly brick with a wire topping that had sharp metal barbs meant to keep students from escaping, but luckily Joe's fancy new jacket took the brunt of those.
Joe let out a grunt as she landed in a pile of dirty snow. She seemed to have ended up in some alleyway behind the school. As she stood up and examined her now ruined coat, Joe could hear the guys beginning to scramble up the fence themselves. Shit. Joe would gulp before darting down the alleyway. Behind her, she could hear the guys landing in the same snow pile she had. Joe had to hide. She quickly scanned the alleyway and found a small nook between a dumpster and the wall of some apartment building. As she crouched back there, Joe pressed her back against the wall in an attempt to flatten herself out and maybe be less noticeable.
It had a different effect than what she thought it would.
The wall behind her seemed to vanish as she suddenly fell back and down with a scream. The fall was cushioned by what appeared to be a pile of pillows. As Joe's eyes adjusted to the darkness around her, she could make out the faint glow of a dimly lit... basement laboratory? Is that what was in front of her? There were several tables covered in tubes and wiring... What was all this? Joe would stand and begin to approach the tables. This... didn't look legal at all. Was this a meth lab? The girl gulped. Who's lab was this? She had to tell her dad. He would know who to report this to.
Joe approached a table- trying to find anything indicating who it belonged to. All she found was a torn up envelope with the name 'Zamora Zamorano' on it as the recipient. As Joe tried to find more pieces of the envelope, her elbow would knock over a glass container. As the container fell, Joe gasped. ”Oh no!” She tried to catch the container, but it slipped through her fingers and shattered on the cold concrete ground.
A pink cloud would explode out and fill the room. Joe took a face full of the strange pink mist and fell back, coughing sporadically. What was that!? The entire room seemed to be coated in the pink dust. Her jacket and skirt was covered in it too. So were her hands! Joe would reach up in an attempt to wipe the dust from her eyes using the inside of her coat sleeves. Everything smelled sickly sweet. She had to wash this stuff off. In a panic, the girl ran through the lab before finally finding a ladder that lead up to another door in another alleyway.
Joe would run home- scared out of her wits. She didn't even notice that her blond hair was slowly becoming pink.
As the students buzzed about the room, the energy of the weekend being here and class being over was obvious. All of the students were ready for the weekend.
