I wish my cohorts weren't so dumb

She gets everything she wants She gets everything for free She will fuck up your whole life With her little Gucci coochie

Shannon was bored. The feeling seemed to be a lot more common now that she was stuck with her brother at some old-ass program geared towards dreams. She wasn’t one of them. Even if she could label herself as an astranaut, she knew she would rather drop dead than do as much.

So instead of singing kumbaya with the other people at the compound, she decided to venture out to the nearest pub. She had ordered herself some food and sat on a bar stool, eyeing people up. Someone in here had to be worth her time. Just one person. 

And then someone sat beside her. Perfect opportunity to see if they were entertaining enough. “If you buy me a drink, I’ll make out with you. It sounds stupid, but I promise I always make the reward worthwhile.”

 Lach made a face at her. “Well, I’ve done both of those things, because I’d die if I didn’t, but nope. We’ve got some small stuff because Unchi hasn’t been here to actually approve it, but it’s there. Plus, there’s a girl that’s decided I’m her best friend and I think she runs Spain.”

“It’s there? Sounds fake.” She rolled her eyes. A best friend named Malia? Shannon was going to have to come back to that later. “Don’t be stupid. She so does not run Spain. She just wants you to believe that. Are you going to believe every rich skank who says they run a country? ”

 Lach smiled. “Still older than you, though, so I guess I’m still winning,” he replied. She hadn’t moved, but he could see the light in her eyes. The light that meant she was getting grumpy. “Oh sure. And this is expanding family business.”

“Age isn’t important when you don’t act like the older one.” She rolled her eyes. “How have you been expanding the business? I bet you’ve done nothing but pulled stupid pranks and ate food.”

 Lachlan had been having fun. He’d had months of a great time, and had planned on keeping it up, and now who was here? Shannon. Now he was going to have to do stuff. Ew.

 “Um. Never,” he replied, leaning back on his heels and spinning. “Why would I ever want to do that, walking normally is for lame people. Like you.”

“You’re a child,” she hissed. She almost stomped her foot, but she wasn’t going to let him see her sweat this easily. Lach would be all-too-giddy to see her upset. “This is why Uncle Oogie had me stay with him while you went off to this....what the hell it is.”

As much as she didn’t want to see her brother, she knew she had to. Shannon was basically told to get into this program to watch her older brothers, to babysit; it felt like a downgrade, despite her uncle’s reassurance that it was anything but that. 

It wasn’t hard to find Lach either. He was outside, terrorizing strangers and looking displeased. How boring. She walked over to him, glaring at whoever he was messing with so that they ran. “I thought you were over heeling around like a thirteen year old punk.”

The Halloween party had left Hook on edge. There was something about his ex being accused of a murder, even if it was fake, that had made him act a little differently. Because that’s apparently what happens when your life is put into a weird perspective. So, James found himself sitting outside of his dorm room. He was sitting to the side on the steps, just enough so that he was out of anyone’s way, when someone came up behind him. “Move along. There’s enough room unless you’re the size of an elephant,” he waved his hand in the air.

Shannon stopped in her tracks the moment he spoke. It wasn’t because she was offended or because she was lost in this new place. No, she didn’t like the way he was just sitting there. Plain and simple. She took a deep breath; she was working on her first impressions. Her uncle said she needed to develop a little bit more social skills. She looked down at the guy. “First off, I am clearly not an elephant. Second...Who the hell lounges on steps like that? You are no Blair Waldorf.”

the astra initiative is proud to introduce SHANNON BLACKWELL, the NINETEEN year old who looks an awful lot like CAMILA MENDES. she hails from BUCHAREST, ROMANIA; and resembles SHOCK from THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS. her application has been processed, meaning she is closed for auditions.

your earliest memory is in the back of a truck, the windows blowing frigid air into the cold metal container that housed your family. it lasted for many cold days and even colder nights, only getting out to take pit stops until you reached your destination. later on, you discovered that this was your uncle’s men, members of the irish mafia, taking you, your mother and brothers taking you into your mother’s native england, smuggling you out of your father’s native romania. the minute you stepped out of the truck, the men handed you passports and documents, forged to create a new life in the country your mother called home. you all took new names, with the maiden name of your mother after, new people in a new place. out of the three of you, you always deemed yourself the smartest and bravest; daring to head to your uncle’s headquarters every day after school to see what everyone was working on and what the next mission was. 

for this he named you most likely to become his protégéé, the next one to inherit the family business — as he so liked to call it. you always came up with new ideas to better the business, and made every man that worked for uncle oogie fear you: a girl too young to remember her past life and too eager to bring more danger into her new life.

WHO TELLS YOUR STORY?

BANNER & LACHLAN BLACKWELL — your mother tells you to be nice to them because they’re your older brothers, but you promptly refuse every time. they both treat you like a baby because you’re the youngest, but you’re always finding ways to beat them in everything. you refuse to be treated like a child, and won’t stop until they do.
