First Target - Video

[nobodysweapon]

*The video opens on a girl with... does that teddy bear behind her have a bullet hole through its head? That's creepy. The girl isn't nearly as creepy in a rather ordinary sundress, a nice blue-gray number. Nothing fancy and it clearly allowed her to move freely as she stepped into center frame. To those that know her before she seems less... paranoid, angry, and ready to kill things at a moment's notice than she was five years ago. Even if she hasn't aged as much as everyone else.*

Hello. I am a returning student, I am a little old for high school, but I needed to withdraw from my last school for personal reasons. I am attempting to finish my education so I can properly enter the workforce without forged documentation.

*Yes, that was all said with a straight face.*

Some of the staff and students from before the incident might remember me. I-

*She hesitated, just slightly*

Will be using the name Laura now. And I would like people to respect this.

I wish everyone a school year with less kidnapping and property damage than previous years.

*Look she's trying really hard not to be scary, she has to get points for that! She walks over and shuts down the feed.*

What is the signifigance of this 'ice bucket challenge'? Is it a kind of hazing? Or is it symbolic? [The son of The Wicked Witch Of The West Elphaba Thropp is a wee bit weirded out by all these buckets of water being splashed everywhere...]

Am I the only one who thinks there is something seriously wrong here? I mean look around. This school is practically a movie set - big stately manor on beautiful grounds with all the facilities a school full of teenagers could want. And of course everyone's so nice and friendly and they just want to help us mutants learn to use and control our powers...

I mean do you all watch movies? It's like the perfect setup for a horror flick. One of those where they discover that the seemingly perfect location is just cover for some sort of mad scientist's twisted experiments. With us as the victims, not the heroes.

I'm sure some of you are going to think I'm overreacting. But I've got one question. This is supposedly a super-swank, upscale private school. Even without the whole mutant thing, it should be costing thousands of dollars to go here. So how come this little chica from the inner city of San Fran's here? 'Cause my folks sure as shit can't pay.

And don't say it's out of the goodness of their hearts. Ain't nobody actually works like that.
