Run run run as fast as you can (Assignment)

[Violet Lockheart]

EVEN WITH THESE CHAINS

Weekend sun. That's what Violet needed right about now and while the thought of going to school truly made a chill run up her spine that is exactly where she was headed this day. A pair of black slacks, white running shoes and a blue tank top on she made it onto the track making sure to eye the place up to see if it was good and empty before starting up. The girl had made a testiment to herself to train so that she could keep up if not outpace her secret rival, there was a debt to be paid and she'd be damned if she were going to be humiliated again. Although her year thusfar had been nothing more than a parade of her own idiocies she was never rattled by that fact as each day was a new day to be taken advantage of.

With a cool grin on her face she'd press a grip to her wristwatch and start running laps unconcerned about her surroundings at the present. However empty the track field was it would be anything but that despite the weekend. In the stands would be a small number of burnouts toking on cigarettes, a number of others disheveled and walking the paths as though it were a weekday not to mention a small brawling circle by the entrance to the track. It was her day off no sense in stopping a small scuffle one that she had no stake in...

♦ Running was a fun little past time. Worked out the muscles. Kicked up some adrenaline. Gave the gluts a nice lift and refinement. There were many that dreaded the exercise but not Remy. It was something she had grown so accustom to it was practically second nature. Being the weekend, and being Remy, one would think she'd be out and about enjoying the day elsewhere - instead she was at the school. Dressed in a workout top, black spandex capri pants with a pair of black running sneakers she was ready to test out the track field. Remy hadn't been formally introduced to the school considering her late entry so the troublemaker took it upon herself to take a little tour, but first her daily run was in order. ♦ The weekend air was pleasant though tainted near the school. Why? The typical teen rebellion of underage smoking and drinking was apparent on the grounds. Those in the stands enjoying their haze. The desire to feel flesh hitting flesh being for filled by the entrance to the track. Wireless sports headphones rested idly in her ears playing 'All Star' by Smash Mouth as she ignored commotion casually walking around the small scene. Her dirty blonde locks were tied in a ponytail swaying as she bounced in place readying herself before taking to her jog. Humming and singing the song she noted a blue haired girl on the path. There was no one else around of any interest. Since the girl was running too Remy figured why not add a partner. It didn't take much for her to get near the girl on her left. "You call that running?" ♦ She said loud enough to be heard as she smirked passing the girl just enough to be ahead of her a little. Remy would switch to jogging lightly backwards singing the song in her ears. "♪ You'll never know if you don't go. You'll never shine if you don't glow. Hey now you're an all star, get your game on go play ♪" ♦ She'd switch to jogging properly again glancing over her shoulder towards the girl still with a smirk. "Are you the tortoise that beat the hare or the turtle that got hit by the car crossing the road? Move them legs missy if you wanna tighten those buns. No guy wants to hold onto a saggy ass." ♦ Playful banter indeed.

"You call that running?"

Violet mid stride would break from her train of thought looking up to see a dirty blonde matching pace with her and then dropping back to a jog. Initially Violet was caught off guard having been shaken from her zone out mode of run she'd slowed down even to something of a jog to allow for the girl to match pace but given their position she'd get one more round of banter in bringing a color of rose to Vi's cheeks. Her buns weren't working for her? What would Magnus think! Is that why he was avoiding her the lack of buns. A fretful sweat set in place at her brow turning to look back at the girl with a little bit of a heated expression. She wanted nothing more than to defend herself taking it personally at first having misconceived the intentions at least to start if it weren't for that momentary panic however she would have probably round-a-bout slug her. Grateful for a moment of thought she'd slow down to run side by side her.

"Not quite my problem at the moment, guys here seem to get off at your kicking their asses otherwise you're fodder." Vi would smirk back bringing an awkward hand mid-jog to the girl. "I'm Violet, you new here?" It was just a guess really, they were all truly new here Vi arriving no sooner than a week or two back but it didn't hurt as a conversation starter.

♦ Had Remy struck a cord somewhere? She felt like she did duly noting the flush color the girls cheeks turned at her last comment. Did the girl have someone of interest? Whatever other reason would there be for such a flustered coloring? Unless she thought Remy was bi or a lesbian and was checking her out or something. If that was the case she'd be in for a rude awakening. For the time being Remy would reserve her accusation - shockingly - removing one side of the headphones once she saw the girls lips move to speak. ♦ A noticeable smile appeared on her face hearing such words. Suddenly she started to take a little more interest in the school. Maybe her days there wouldn't be so bad. It appeared Remy was going to shake the girls hand but instead she reached over to her left arm pressing the pause button on her Ipod that was strapped there. Rude? Very much so. "What gave it away? Here I thought I was doing a great job hiding that new car smell." ♦ Remy joked. Truthfully she smelled like Japanese cherry blossoms but that was besides the point!  "Men are strange creatures yet so simple.. Well then you need to obtain buns of steel so you can repel them with your almighty gluteus maximus.. I think I'm liking the sound of this place so far.. It's Remy by the way, my manners tend to suck when I'm not forced to use them." ♦ Remy would extend her hand towards Vi when she mentioned her own name. If Vi accepted this late handshake she would feel a firm grip as Remy obliged this normal person meets person gesture. Better later than never. Blunt and honest was usually her route. "Only sheep get fed to the wolves. I'm no sheep." ♦ A small ominous statement she'd make referring back to the fodder comment and would leave it as that returning to the jog at hand, picking up the pace just a little.

Remy that was a nice name. In fact she recalled having a little crush on an old comic book hero back in the day with an eerily similar name. That being said she bore some similar characteristics maybe not a southern drawl or dashing coat but she certainly had the quick bite to match. Returning a smirk and a handshake she'd feel a bit more at ease at running in tandem with the girl and not so occupied with their present surroundings. School and all. As for Remy's final comment Violet somewhat internally cringed. She never really saw herself as either sheep or lion in that case and though the thought of characterizing herself as an animal had come to mind she rarely saw it as a reflection in person. A smile would emerge as she opened her mouth to speak again cutting herself short as she considered the ramifications. Screw it.

"I honestly saw myself as something of a Labrador." She'd grin innocently like the sweet little animal she'd compared herself to. Big dumb ol' things but fiercely loyal to a fault. "Anyways, speaking of making it through the tough bone yards." Vi weould jest to herself throwing up some mock punches. "What say you an' me race? Could be fun." She would flaunt a toothy grin towards her new compatriot feeling a little bit childish but that never stopped her thusfar why now.

"A Labardor? Seri-" ♦ Remy looked at the 'innocent' grin emulating from Violet. A brow perked up at a realization in the bluenette's words. "You're serious." ♦ Her tone dropped into a partial disbelief. A dullness of sorts before breaking into a snicker. Her head shaking out the idea of the girls self comparison. Of all things that was what she chose. And people actually questioned Remy's sanity? Remy was questioning the girl's mental status herself at this point. However she found it amusing to say the least. Kids say the darnedest things right? She began to wonder what other little tidbits would sprout from the girls lips. ♦ If she had ears like an animal they would visibly perk and turn with the prospect of an impending challenge. Hazel green gems flickered at Violet's way seeing the mock punches. A fight? No. A race. Disappointed? Only slightly but a challenge was a challenge and she was not going to bow out. She grinned back while removing her headphones entirely - pocketing them for safe keeping. "Bring it. But why don't we put some stakes to it hm? I'll let you make the terms for winner and loser." ♦ Maintaining a steady pace so neither would tire out while they jogged and chit chatted - Remy was curious what would this 'Labrador' come up with.

Violet thought very little of her response, she deemed it innocent enough and really had no qualms with anyone at this point to consider otherwise simply staring back contemplating her previous response but choosing not to linger on it. As for the race well, Violet wasn't necessarily the swiftest one out there in fact she had really next to no real judge of who was quick around these parts thanks to a certain someone leaving before any sports could be set in place. She mildly fumed to herself about Magnus' evacuation for more than a handful of things.

"Bring it. But why don't we put some stakes to it hm? I'll let you make the terms for winner and loser."

Ahhh Violet stared back a slight bit in shock. Stakes, she wasn't very good at stakes. This was like those high school games where you had to pick the right sort of stakes otherwise you'd be excommunicated from the social order of things for the rest of forever. Internally screaming Vi would placate a stupid thoughtful grin considering her options.

"Ice cream." She would say affirmatively placing her right fist into the palm of her other hand with a serious enough look on her face. By gods did she love ice cream.
