"Last day of this hell hole." Roxi smirked staring at the gym doors. They hold all the assembly's in there at this crappy school. And because we're moving again straight after school I'm going to make this worth while.

"Lets do this." I said then turned to rush down a hallway.

"Make it good Lilac. This is our grand exit." She called out and I laughed walking around the corner to a door. It leads to a room that controls the speakers and the microphones in the gym. I kicked the locked door open and hustled straight up the steps into the room one of the IT men sat, the Indian one with nicely cut hair. He looked over his shoulder at me and gasped.

"Students aren't meant to be up here." He said and I smirked.

"Luckily I'm no longer a student." I pushed him and the wheelie chair across the other side of the room with one swift movement. I grazed my hands over the buttons then picked out my USB from my cleavage.

"You still aren't aloud..." I turned and kicked him back in his seat.

"Enjoy the show." I whispered then plugged the USB into the computer. I scrolled through my music and chose ridiculously fun pop song that blared through the speakers in the gym. I looked through the window that looked down at the gym and over the seats filled with students. They whispered to each other confused when they heard the music and the principle Mr Marple stood at the podium in the middle of the court.

"Alright students remain calm..." I turned his mic off and then Roxi burst through the doors doing a cartwheel then a back flip. In her jeans and her favourite black long sleeved turtleneck. She wears it to hide her scars.

"Lets get this party started!" I yelled into the mic then slid open the window to forward flip out then stood up on the steps. "Roxi darling! Can you believe it? This is our last hour here." I yelled out stepping down the steps as everyone watched. She rushed over to the teachers seats near the principal.

"There's only one person I'll miss." She stated then stood next to her favourite hot maths teacher. Mr Renolds dark hair dark eyes, white shirt and and black pants... This man is her first crush on a male. A twenty 29 year old man who wears glasses. She grabbed his face surprising him completely and smashed her lips onto his and the crowd went wild while I laughed my head off. I started running down the steps then did a few flips while the students cheered me on. And by now Roxi is running to Kevin Jones and giving him an atomic wedgie. To get back at him for always tripping her over as she walked by, and for those snide remarks about her fashion and worst of the all comments he made when he saw one of her scars. Once I stood up almost dizzy from the flips I heard Kevin cry out in pain so I smiled at myself as some of his victims cheered. I ran to the principle and prayed him with a potion that makes his skin change colour.

"Miss Valentine!" He yelled out furiously rubbing his eyes from the spray and already the potion is already working. His face turned red, purple then to blue, turquoise then to green, lime to bright disgusting yellow.

"Well I think I'm done here." I shouted then ran over to the exit doors. Roxi followed behind and took hold of my arm.

"Wait aren't you forgetting something?" She played dumb and I pretended gasp.

"Oh yeah one more thing!" I yelled out over the music. Then pulled out a little control with only a red button. "Say cheese!" I pushed down hard on the button and rainbow paint flew down from hidden parts of the ceiling landing on the students, teachers and a bit on my boots. Roxi took a picture with her camera then we sprinted out of there laughing.

"That was awesome!" She screamed once we outside rushing down the steps. She did another cartwheel and I just did another frontal flip.

"How are we going to top that at the next school?" I asked still having the adrenaline rush run through me.

"We'll think of something, besides the next school might not be so bad." She said as we stopped at her motorbike. She stole it from a bikie back in Sunnyvale... It was silver with black leather seats but then she repainted it blue and added her own metallic wolf head on the front.

"Where are we heading anyway?" I asked climbing on behind her.

"Some small town where nothing happens." She responded.

"Yay..." I said with less enthusiasm. No we don't wear helmets. That's too mainstream...

"But once we get there we will rock that place up." She said and I smiled.

Roxi

I stopped in front of the motel we're staying at and we both saw Mr Valentine walking out. Carrying our suitcases to to the truck. We had to ditch the Volkswagen when it was demolished by a pack of wolves. Not my fault... This time.

"Where were you girls?" He questioned when Lilac climbed off to help him.

"Out." I responded,

"And about." Lilac added throwing the suitcases carelessly into the back. "Need help with the bike?" She asked me and I shook my head.

"Nah I got it." I moved it closer to the truck then effortlessly lifted up to place it up near the suitcases. You wouldn't think a girl as fat as me would have this much strength... What can I say? Over the years eating has been my guilty pleasure. A little few minutes of escape. I climbed and tied the rope around the bike then jumped off.

"Roxi I left 'the' bag in the room could you get?" Mr Valentine asked me and I nodded.

"Dad you have to be careful where you that bag. We can't let just anyone..." We froze when a man held the bag in his hand. Scruffy looking old man but smiled sweetly at us.

"You left your bag." He said holding it out for me to take. I hope Mr Valentine remembered to unload the bullets when he put the guns in there. Yeah that's why it's called the bag. I don't understand how this frail looking old man can hold it. It's filled with all our guns...

"Uh... Thank you Frank." I stuttered grabbing the bag from his wrinkled yet soft hand.

"Um... This bag was in our room." Lilac said confused.

"Your door was wide open so I saw the bag and thought you might have forgotten." He said. Seems legit I guess. Plus he's a senior, he's simply being friendly... Although there is something a little off about him.

"Thank you Frank. Get in the truck girls." Mr Valentine ordered and Lilac immediately obliged climbing in while I put the bag in the trunk then sat on it. Lilac opened the little window that separates us and said. "You're sitting I the trunk again."

"I love the feeling of the wind in my hair when I stand up. Plus..." I pointed to my bike. "I have a baby to take care of." She rolled her then sat down facing the front. Mr Valentine or Corey... Climbed into the drivers side and started the truck.

"Goodbye!" Frank called out waving at me and I smiled awkwardly at the odd man before waving back. Hurry up and drive already. We started driving off the shop filled streets and I thought for a split second 'the' bag moved. Trick of light.

"Dad I don't want to listen to these dull country songs." Lilac whined and Mr Valentine huffed but continued driving. "That's it I'm putting my own music on."

"Must you Lilac."

"Yes she must." I said through the window. And he huffed again while Lilac changed the channels on the radio. Again I felt an uneasy rush and stared at the bag again. Then Katy Perry started playing and my thoughts vanished.

"Last Friday night! We went streaking in the park!" Lilac sang out so I joined in. "Skinny-dipping in the dark!" Lilac kept on singing but now I'm sure the bag moved again. I crawled over to it then I flipped my hand to my dagger shot out of my right sleeve. I grabbed the zipper and quickly opened the bag. And some little green thing flew out at my face. I yelped in surprise as it's claws scratched my face but I backhanded it away. It's not a very large demon. Just green scaled oversized lizard with a red Mohawk. It hissed at me standing on it's hind legs so I did my own animalistic growl.

"Roxi what are doing?" Lilac asked me.

"I got this." I said before sliding the window shut. "Come here you slimy disgusting reptile." It bared its long needle fangs hissing out spit that burnt the trunk when it hit it. "You spit on my bike and your death will be slow and painful." It crawled over to my bike and spat on it making it singe so I really growled and leaped at. It jumped over my head biting my ass along the way. "Ah!" Fuck that stings! I heard it cackle evilly but then I heard Lilac scream. Now she notices... The truck froze to a halt and I forced the dagger onto the lizard. However I only chopped off the end of it's tail. It cried then hissed at me again. However it started shrinking a little into a smaller more lizard like size. Still pretty much the size of my arms put together. It jumped out of the truck once Lilac stepped out and she squealed in disgust.

"Ugh what is that thing!?" She screeched and it started running at her. Before she could do anything it jumped onto her leg and crawled up her black skirt. "Ah! Get out! Ewe it's slimy!" She screamed as she ran around in a circle trying to get it out from her blouse. Shit this is kind of funny... Her dad came around holding a shotgun.

"Don't shoot her!" I ran to her held her tightly by the shoulders and once I saw it crawl to her stomach I swung my fist at it. "Sorry Lilac." I whispered as she groaned in pain. The thing slipped out from her blouse and slammed onto the road. Completely wiped out.

"Move so I can shoot it." Mr Valentine ordered and I hugged Lilac as well as dragged her a little away. He shot the lizard thing and black goo squirted all over the place.

"Ugh that's disgusting." I muttered and Lilac groaned again.

"To make matters worse I think I'm going to throw up." Lilac said leaning on me.

"We're you bitten in the arse by that thing?" I questioned and she gazed at me confused.

"... No." She said awkwardly.

"Then don't complain." I said rubbing my sore ass while walking back to the truck. "I'm not going to be able to sit for another couple of hours." I said and I heard Lilac giggle silently behind.

"Should I kiss it better?" She teased and I glared at her over my shoulder.

"I swear I will bite you."

"How did that thing get in my truck?" Mr Valentine questioned searching the trunk for any more oversized lizards.

"It was in THE bag. I knew there was something off about Frank." I said.

"You think that old senile man planted it in our bag?"

"Of course. He randomly walked into our room and brought us our bag."

"Lessened learned. Don't trust old senile man in apartment 24."
