Sheena
Sheena went back to fidgeting slightly in her seat. Her mind was mostly Oh, yikes. She still wasn't entirely over her internal panic. Still she kept a straight face.
Anarchy
Anarchy grinned. "Anarchy bloody Lyndon." She said, popping a peanut in her mouth.
| Nico |
Nico finally decided to go talk to the girl (Sheena) who was now sitting alone.
"You scored a Nine too, then?" he asked as he sank down into the seat behind her.
| Fenton |
Fenton smirked. "Anarchy? As in a state of lawlessness and chaos?" He chuckled softly. "I like it." He extended his hand to shake her own. "They call me Fenton."
Sheena
Sheena looked at him, nodding slowly. "Not sure how. I stayed up almost two weeks straight studying." She said, shrugging. "But, at least, it's not a 10."
Anarchy
Anarchy smirked back. "Yes, be thankful I had strange parents." She said, shaking his hand. "Though, Fenton isn't exactly normal either."
| Nico |
"Yeah," Nico responded quietly, glancing down at the ground. "I studied a lot, too, but it didn't do me any good. I'm hoping this is all some sort of mistake, you know? Maybe they messed something up and will come fix it."
| Fenton |
"Why, thank you," Fenton responded, still grinning. "Normal is the last thing I want to be, so I'll take that as the highest compliment. "
Sheena
Sheena shook her head. "As amazing as that would be, we all know they don't make mistakes." She said quietly, biting her lip. "We messed up, somehow."
Anarchy
"Of course." She said, giving a dramatic mock bow. "Normal is the worst possible thing."
| Nico |
Nico sighed. "I guess you're right," he mumbled. "But, it could be worse. At least we're not in Ten. Or dead."
| Fenton |
"Absolutely is," Fenton responded. "Hm. You seem far too intelligent to have scored a Nine. Interesting, considering I myself should've scored much higher as well. I think the government is out to get me," he said, smirking. It was hard to tell if he was kidding or being serious.
Sheena
Sheena nodded. "I guess you have a point." She said quietly, glancing to where Anarchy was. Help I cannot social-
Anarchy
"I wouldn't be surprised if they were out to get me too." She said, grinning. "I do tend to live up to my name, y'know."
| Nico |
Nico followed Sheena's gaze. "Is that your friend?"
| Fenton |
"I'd be disappointed if you didn't," Fenton replied. "I'd love to cause a little bit on anarchy in our government, myself, as corrupt as it is."
Sheena
Sheena nodded. "Anarchy. Since we were kids. Only good thing about this is so far, we're still sticking together…" She said quietly.
Anarchy
Anarchy nodded. "Yep. Miracle I haven't been killed yet." She said, shrugging off-handedly.
| Nico |
"It's good to have someone through all of this," Nico responded. "I'm kinda on my own here, but I guess that's alright, too."
| Fenton |
Fenton smiled again. "Me too, but for different reasons." He leaned forward and whispered into her ear. "Between you and me, some people find me a tad bit… obnoxious." He stood up straight and grinned. "Apparently so much that they'd like to kill me. But, hey, here I am." He chuckled. Again, impossible to tell if he was being serious or kidding.
Sheena
Sheena looked up at him. "My name's Sheena, by the way."
Anarchy
Anarchy laughed. "Oh the only thing keeping me from that is Sheena holding me back by the collar." She said, popping another peanut in her mouth.
| Nico |
"Nicodemus," he responded slowly. "My friends generally call me Nico." He offered her a genuine smile.
| Fenton |
"Sheena?" Fenton glanced around the car. "Would that be the little lady down there?" he inquired, motioning to her.
