The Shifters

3. Drama doesn't even begin to explain it...

Chapter Three

Spanish for me is always easy. Trig was hard though. The teacher actually gave us homework. It's the first day and we get homework in probably the hardest class. Do teachers like giving us so much homework? I think so, because they do it. They must not have a life other than career. 

"Ugh,  let's hurry to lunch! I'm starving!" Ty growled at me which pissed me off.

"Well, excuse me! Your not the only hungry one! My stomach feels like it's about to eat itself! Now stop snapping at me! I feel the same way you do. I am as hungry as you are, I can hear people starting to eat their lunch, and smell what it is like you." I yelled at him and started to soften my voice as I calmed down. I whispered "It's all a part of the change. Get used to it. Calm down Ty. Otherwise, you're going to do something you'll regret." He eased at that and closed his eyes. His face softened when he opened his eyes, he sighed.

"I'm sorry Tori. It's just hard. We need to talk to mom about this. This transformation is gonna happen soon. I need help controlling it. Otherwise, I'll explode. Plus, kids keep looking at me weird. It's sort of sketchy to me." he whispered to me and looked around with a serious look. "What if there are others like us. They'll think we're rogues. Those are wolves that don't have packs and seem dangerous to other packs. I see people sniff the air and give us funny looks. I don't like it. That's why I snapped. I'm sorry about that. I shouldn't take it out on you. Let's get to lunch. Your hungry and I'm hungry."

"What are you going to do about those kids?" I asked even though I know the answer.

"I'll ask them if they have anything to say to me that they can't say to my face. Easy. Why?" He asked with a confused look.

"Connect the dots Ty. They're probably shifters like mom and us. They might be smelling the mix on us. Yeah that's it! Since our dad is human, they find our scents weird!" I said proudly. Not to brag, but sometimes I love being smart.

"Okay, okay smart ass. Don't get too full of yourself." he said it like it was a bad thing. That bastard, it was as if he read my mind.

"Well then, have fun with the Trig homework. Maybe one of those drooling girls will help you!" I grinned at him and ran towards the cafeteria with Ty hot on my tail. Yeah, that's a messed up expression. We couldn't care less about the looks people gave us. Attention is always something you'll get whether you want it or not.

Believe it or not Tyler's not a man whore. Apparently, he doesn't want to get an STD or anything like that. It makes me proud though. If he caught that, he'd be fucked for life. Get it?

Anyways, I turned a couple of times and saw a whole bunch of other kids eating food. I was waiting for Ty by the bathrooms when a group of what seemed like the popular crowd walked toward me. I braced myself for the shit they were going to give me. That's how they always are. But drama doesn't even begin to explain it...

Ty finally caught up. " Yo! What the Hell! Not cool. Using a dude's good looks against him. It's completely against nature!" He dramatically wiped a fake tear away and pouted trying to cover his panting.

"Aw, did you get offended?" I couldn't help but pinch his cheeks while people looked at me like I was crazy. I probably was. Then we were interrupted.

"Hey, I'm Drake Martinez. You guys must be the newbies?" He had straight, pearly white teeth in a friendly smile, dark brown hair, eyes to match, tan skin, and about 6'1 in height. His somewhat loose white t-shirt showed his washboard abs and wore nice dark blue jeans with white Jordan's.You had to admit that the dude was hot. To the girls that were human, he was probably a god. But, that's what shifters seemed like. We were the children of gods and goddesses who have blessed us with everything supernatural. "These are my friends Sam Wolfe" he pointed to a dude who looked like Shay, "Joseph Taylor" there was a blond guy with beautiful blue eyes and beautiful complexion, "His twin, Jayden" A guy who the looked exactly like his twin except he seemed a little friendlier. "The girls we hangout with are busy in the bathroom, some of the guys are already eating and the others are doing who knows what."

"Hey man, I'm Tyler Fox."

"Victoria Fox, his twin. Sadly..."

"Hey!"

"I'm kidding!"

Better be..." he muttered.

We introduced ourselves and walked into get to the canteen and fetch lunch.

Shay was waving for me to sit with her. I did. Ty being Ty, sat with me. "Shay, you didn't say you have a brother too!"

"I also didn't get a chance to give you complete info on this school!"

"Alright, point taken. Now spill!"

"Okay. Well, since I suspect you met those guys... I'll give you their backgrounds." She pointed to Drake and the guys I met earlier and some of their unidentified friends. "They're some of the popular jocks. There are girls on the on the cheer leading team who are the typical high school social anarchy. Slutty, bitchy and ugly. Some of the jocks aren't that bad like Drake and one or two girls are actually nice.Our quarterback is kind of an ass and his on-off slut, the head cheerleader Lexi, is way worse. She'll try to ruin a poor girl's life for fun. She cheats a lot so that's why they're on and off. The Taylor's are similar but different in a lot of ways compared to each other. For example, Joe doesn't talk that much and Jay is very talkative. Sam, my brother, is a sweet guy but he's an on-off player. Sam is best friends with the quarterback, his name is Nick Rider." She made a face when she mentioned the "Nick" and "Lexi" so I let her continue and vent with my full attention. The girl who asked about Ty in Spanish is named Brittney. She seems nice but it's still touchy on the brother subject. That's for very clear reasons. Shay mentioned to be careful with the popular crowd but I didn't care. She also mentioned My brother and I will be targets for whatever they want from us.

Nobody messes with Victoria Elena Fox and gets off easy or away with it. I would like to see what they're going to try to do. I have the very evil, genius mind of the devil as Ty put it. So, what they come up with couldn't be bad compared to my carefully planned lists of revenge. So they better watch out.

All of a sudden, Shay nudges me. "Here they come. Watch the show and enjoy because you'll see everything from these seats." I smiled at her. She's so going to be my best friend. Can't you tell?
