Keeping a Low Profile
Who: Kat OT Jarrod
Where: Regan High
When: Wednesday afternoon
It was amazing how calm life could be if you let yourself just…disappear. Since the whole suspension thing, Kat had been doing her best to stay on the straight and narrow. There hadn't been any more locker incidents. No one's photos had accidentally ended up on the school paper. As far as she'd heard, Camille hadn't pulled a Carrie at the dance (although some people had said there might be some Invasion of the Body Snatchers voodoo going around). She'd caught up on all of her school work and, for a change of pace, she was actually keeping a little bit ahead in her classes. It was the kind of life most people could be really happy with. No drama.
Kat was bored to tears. She couldn't explain to her brother what was wrong. Her Watcher, well, she was starting to think he was just clueless when it came to teenage girls. And her friends? Sure, she'd made a couple, but it wasn't like she could be all, "Hi, I'm Kat and I kill monsters. Yay! Girl Power! Like Xena, without the horse and the lesbian overtones. Oh, and I'll probably die before I ever turn eighteen, but I still have to suffer through high school. Go me!" to just anyone.
So she kept to herself mostly. Like now. She still had twenty minutes before her lunch period was over and instead of crowding into the cafeteria or chilling with her BFFs at a table in the quad, she was sitting under a tree outside the library, skimming through yet another book of tactical maneuvers Harrison had loaned to her.
