The "Hangover"

Let's start this story from the beginning shall we? My name is Charles Leonardo Killmor, and this is my story about how my friends and I had the adventure of our lives.

I am a six foot tall teenager living down here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I have bright blue eyes, black straight hair, and an athletic build. I live here with my parents and my sister and brother. My brother's name is Lucas Maxwell Killmor and my sister's name is Michelle Leonardo Killmor. She's practically my twin. She is sixteen years old, same as me.

She has black hair that goes down to her waist. And she has bright blue eyes, like mine. We both like to go paintballing with Lucas. He has blond, curly hair with brown highlights. He also has dark green eyes with blue flecks in them. He was a bit of a sissy, yet we still liked him.

My sister on the other hand, is more of a tom boy. I guess that's why we get along together so well. We both love stuff that goes boom. And we both love to pull pranks on our family. We are pulling one now.

We are planning to put yellow food dye into our water tank so it looks like pee. When our parents see it, there is going to be chaos. We had Lucas standing guard, and Michelle is getting the food dye from the kitchen. When they get their jobs done, I will sneak down stairs and put the dye into the tank. I was the family thief, at least that's what my mother tells us when they catch us red handed.

That's when Michelle came up to me and gave me a hug, secretly slipping me the dye.

"Good luck bro, see you top side." She said while walking off.

"Don't worry sis, I'll see you soon." I said while running down the stairs. For some weird reason, when I walk or run, my feet make no noise whatsoever. I ran by my parents study and made it to the basement door. I opened it and got a strange feeling. The next thing I know, I fall flat on my face. That's when I saw something. It looked like me, yet I was much taller, thinner, and darker. My skin almost looked black. I looked up and the other me said something.

"Don't worry; you and I will be one very soon." It said in a really deep voice. It almost scared me shitless. I then woke up and saw myself on the couch, with a blanket and pillows surrounding me. I looked over to my right and saw my parents and siblings at the dinner table. I looked to the clock and saw that it was already 6:00 at night. Weird, it had been around 10:30 when I had gone down into the basement.

My parents must have heard me getting up, because they came rushing over to me, along with my brother and sister.

"Are you ok, what happened to you?" My mother, Jenna, asked while checking to make sure I was alright.

"You gave us quite a scare there son, what happened to you to make you pass out like that?" My dad, Nickolas, asked with concern laced in his voice.

"I don't know, I was just going down there to look for something, and BAM, I'm down on my face. It was almost like I was forced down or something." I said, before the door was kicked in. We all turned towards it and saw a bunch of men in suits come rushing in. Two of them shot my parents with sleeping darts. Then two different men came up to me and my siblings.

"Sorry to intrude, but we need you kids to come with us." One of the men said.

"And we would also like to say that you don't really have a choice. So if you will calmly follow us, we will take you back to base." The other man said, sounding impatient. My brother, being the sissy of the family, went over to the men.

"Good lad, what about you little girl?" One thing about my sister, she hates it when people call her "little girl".

"What did you call me?" She yelled as she rushed him, yet she was stopped as one of them shot her with a dart, or two.

At that moment, something happened inside of me. It was almost like some kind of primal force took over. I suddenly wanted to crush that man's head beneath my foot, and that sounded like a good idea. I jumped off the couch, and before one of them could shoot me, I front flipped over them and got to my sister. When I got to her and the man, I punched the man square in the chest, promptly knocking him off his feet, and into some of the other guards. Then I felt a stinging feeling in the back of my neck. I reached behind me and was met by the feeling of a dart in the back of my neck. That's when I blacked out.

I awoke to the sound of my brother yelling at me. So I did what I usually did when I wanted him to be quite. I smacked him in the back of the head. He seemed to get the message, because he was quite afterwards. I then felt a hand on my back, trying to shake me up.

"Come on Charles, WAKE UP!" I heard before the unmistakable back hand from Michelle.

"AH, whatever it is, I didn't do it!" I yelled before looking to who had woke me up. I saw Michelle and Lucas standing at the foot of my bed. They both looked really worried.

"Why do you two seem so worried? It's only Monday isn't it?" I said while getting up. I noticed that I was a bit taller and a little thinner than last night. I noticed that they were to.

"I take it you noticed that we are taller and thinner than before? Do you remember what happened after those men came here, because we don't?" Michelle said while sitting down on my bed.

"No I don't, what did happen? I can't remember anything…OH SHIT, WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!" I yell out before getting everything that I needed for high school and ran out the door to our car. They came out of the house and we got going
