Insanity Girls - Alex Powell
Track One
It was nighttime in the big city, a Thursday night, and it had just finished raining. The neon lights were all blinking, taxi cabs rushed by, and pedestrians used the sidewalk like a runway, flashing everyone around them their million-dollar smiles. Music blasted from every single venue and bar decks overflowed. At a busy street corner, two figures rushed out the doors of an exclusive nightclub.
Hurry, cross the street!
the first figure cried, not even stopping her mad dash and leaping out into the road.
Envy, wait! The light's changing!
Better run then!
The second figure paused before following her companion. Several cars honked, but she ignored them, vaulting over the hood of the car turning right in the farthest lane over.
You almost got us killed!
she complained.
I'd rather get hit by a car than face the paparazzi, Jae,
Envy said, grabbing her arm and pulling her along the road. How'd they get in anyway?
Fuck if I know.
Jaelynn shook her head. Where's Phaedra and Shayla?
With their lovers,
snorted Envy. Serves them right if they didn't run fast enough. I told them that having boyfriends would slow them down.
Jae peered back across the street. I don't see them anywhere, but I see some cameras over there. Envy! Crap, they see us!
Come on then. Run!
The two took off down the street again, boots splashing on the wet cement. Across the road from them, a group of paparazzi waving cameras waited impatiently for the light to change again. As soon as the walk signal flashed on, the entire group surged into the road, pursuing their latest story. Envy glanced over her shoulder and sped up in an attempt to outpace their persistent shadows.
Why did we agree to come a day early!
Jae whined at Envy's back as she panted along behind her. I wanted to rest at that resort!
You think I want to miss the party of the season?
Envy turned her head to look back and grin at Jae.
Jae scowled, didn't reply, and miserably continued running.
It started raining again, coming down in a half-hearted drizzle.
My mohawk's going flat!
Jae cried, feeling her hair with her hands.
We need a getaway car,
Envy said decisively, smacking a fist into her palm.
We don't have a getaway car!
Jae pointed out, still trying in vain to spike her hair back up.
There's a taxi!
It has someone in it already!
Too bad!
The two flung themselves into the middle of the street, and into the path of the taxi.
*~*~*
Silveira sat in the taxi, leaning against the window and looking out the rain-specked glass. Street after street of people in tiny dresses or skintight jeans passed by outside. It was late enough that the entertainment district was lively. She pulled her Physical Biochemistry textbook against her chest, wishing that it hadn't been the cause of her long evening. She might have made the last bus if she hadn't left the textbook in the university's Pride Centre where she'd been studying.
The taxi stopped at a light and crowds of people crossed in front of the taxi. Her home was on the other side of the entertainment district, but in spite of its proximity, she never went out at night. Something about those perfectly made-up faces seemed unreal, like a mask.
The taxi lurched to a start and was picking up speed when the driver slammed his foot on the brake, swearing in several different languages.
What's going on?
Silveira cried.
Her chest and shoulder hurt from where she'd been slammed forward into her seatbelt. Before she could voice another protest, the back door to the taxi opened and two dark figures jumped in, slamming the door behind them. When she looked closer, she realized that they were two strangely-dressed girls. One had bright green hair in a pixie cut, sporting a black leather jacket and knee-high buckled boots, and the other had a very bedraggled-looking mohawk. Both were covered in piercings and tattoos.
Are you gang members?
she asked in a high-pitched voice.
The two girls looked up at her and laughed.
No, we're in a band.
The girl with green hair held out a slim hand. I'm Envy.
I'm Jaelynn!
chimed in the other girl. Sorry about this, but we're abducting you.
What?
Silveira looked around wildly in confusion.
Envy leaned over the seat to tell the taxi driver where they were going, slipping him several bills in advance. Then she turned to look at Silveira intently. Her contact lens- enhanced eyes were a violent shade of violet, visible even in the shadowy taxi.
Silveira. I'm Silveira.
she told the pair of them shakily. What's going on?
We're going to a party. It's not far from here. Don't worry,
Jaelynn laughed.
"You should come
