Summary: Following the slushie incident, Sierra pays the Warblers a visit.
Little early to be celebrating isn’t it?” Leaning in the doorway of the Warbler practice room, Sierra surveyed the group gathered inside. She knew most of them, considered them friends. Good friends.
Or at least she had. Now…she wasn’t so sure.
“I’m sorry,” Sebastian turned from where he had been perched on the arm of the couch, holding court as it were, and surveyed the new comer. Oh he knew who she was. And he knew why she was there. “Warbler meetings are closed to members only.”
“True. But given your blatant disregard for Warbler law and tradition, you’ll forgive me if I don’t give a flying fuck.”
“Sierra…” Nick rose to his feet with Jeff following. They knew Sierra. Knew things Sebastian did not. Like the fact she was bipolar. And what happened when her temper got out of control. Though if Nick asked Jeff. Jeff would say that they should let Sebastian find out all on his own.
Raising a hand, Sierra stopped him. She was fine. She didn’t come here to break Sebastian’s nose. At least not yet.
“What do you want, Anderson?”
“I want to see you run over by my car. But since that is apparently a bit of an overreaction, I’ll settle for your resignation from the Warblers.”
“And why would I do that?”
“Because you’re in direct violation of at least 4 different Warbler by laws. Enough to be brought before the Council. But as there is no longer a Council, which…seriously guys?” She looked at Thad and David. How the hell had they allowed this to happen? “But as there is no longer a Council it will have to go to the administration. And that could lead from your expulsion from the Warblers AND Dalton…and I doubt Daddy would like that very much. Probably can’t afford for you to get kicked out of ANOTHER boarding school, can he?”
“Probably about as much as your parents could do with another ‘incident’ involving their crazy daughter. Yeah…didn’t think I knew about that one…did you, Princess? Please…you’re so out of your league.”
And oooooh how she wanted to hit him. But she would not stoop to his level. Instead she simply hopped up on the table that once served as the Council’s desk. Almost instinctively, she reached for the gavel, but there was nothing there. Wes always hated when she played with the gavel. It was why she did it. For the face he made.
“Warbler Bylaw 2, Section 14B. The Warbler Council shall oversee all decisions concerning membership and performance. They shall act as the governing head and mediating body of the Warblers. If ever a time comes when the Council is no longer required, a formal petition shall be brought before the administration with a new manifesto drawn up.” She looked at Sebastian. “I’m guessing none of those things happened…so…rule 1. Not to mention that being the new guy in town meant you probably had to buy your way up the ladder which brings me to rules 2….Warbler Bylaw 7, Section 6D. Solos and other positions of leadership shall be awarded by merit and group vote. All votes must be unanimous and if any misconduct is discovered on the part of the appointee they shall be stripped of all titles. Misconduct consists of, but is not limited to…vulgar and lewd acts, academic dishonesty, bribery….need I go on?”
“You can’t prove anything.”
“I’m not done. Warbler Bylaw 14, Section 2. A Warbler is considered a Warbler for life, no matter his length of tenure. All Warblers, be it past or present are considered a valued member of the brotherhood and are to be treated with respect. Warbler bylaw 14, Section 5. No Warbler shall commit an act of violence towards another member of the brotherhood. All disputes are to be settled before the council. That’s 4. Four different rules, Sebastian. And may I remind you that according to Warbler Bylaw 42, Section 12…Anyone caught in defiance of these laws is eligible for immediate expulsion. Twenty-four hours, Sebastian. You have twenty-four hours or I go to the administration.”
Hopping down off the table, she headed for the door.
Exchanging looks, Nick and Jeff chased after, the latter grinning. “How did you…?”
“Dating Montgomery, remember? I can recite those in my sleep.” She gave them a small smile before departing. She was so calling Wes on the way home.
