CHAPTER 1

(Shadows POV)

Another day, Another boring fucking day of school. Just two more days and Im home free. I came to this art school to learn about art not to paint everyday. "Ok class since theirs only two more days of school left, I will let you have a free day. "Ms.M stated. "What exactly do you mean by "free day"?" I asked with curiosity.

"It means do whatever you want as long as you don't get on my nerves and if the principal walks in just act like your good students and paint somthing." Ms.M replied with a sarcastic tone. So I decided to draw for a little bit then I started to doze off from lack of sleep "Damit, I knew I shouldn't have stayed up all night with Spa..."

"Briiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing" I jumped from my nap in panic. As I came to me senses I relized it was just the school bell so I quickly gatherd my things and left. As I walked into 5th period I noticed Raven was sitting by herself again.

" Hey whats up." All I got in responce was an evil glare "Hey Raven you good?" I asked in consern. "Uhh yes Im fine just board, and how many times do I have to tell you outside of school we're family but in school we're nothing." She said with annoyance. "Oh yaaaah...why is that again?" "Because no matter what school we attend your always the most popular guy there then people find out I'm your sister and they never leave me that hell alone. They always want to suck up to me to get to you and frankly I just want some fucking peace and quiet."

"Also every time your around me theres always a confontation between you and every random boy who looks at me the wrong way." Raven stated with anger. "Oh well its not my fault that alot of people like me...look im sorry if I always get into fights arounds you, I just want to be there for you as your older brother." I said with sadness.

I dicided to take my seat somewere else but as I was walking Raven called out to me" Hey bro." she yelled out. As she said that eveyone in class turned to her in confusion. As I walked back over to her She said "Look because tomorrow is our B-Day and I don't want you to feel bad. I'll let you be my brother just for today...and sorry for getting mad at you. I know your just looking out for me but please don't get into a fight over me again and in retern I'll lighten up." She stated with content. "Deal!"

I replyed. "Sooo umm...can I sit next to you." "...Sure." She said with regret.

The day went by and school was ending. Me and raven have the same 8th period so I never have to worry about catching up with her "Hey Raven you wanna go home together?" "Sorry but I got practice today" She replied. "What's the point of going to practice when you know like over half the Martial art's in the world?" I asked already knowing the answer. "Because my body isn't strong enough to use most of them yet so I have to keep getting stronger untill it is." "And there also letting me teach today." She said with excitement. "Oh well, ok I'll just see you when you get home then."

When I got home I threw all my stuff on the floor and plopped down on the couch "Moooom."I yelled. "Hmm guess she not home yet." As I floped around the couch wondering what to do I noticed that there was a package on the kitchen table. "Hm I wonder who its for?" As I looked at the box I noticed there was no return adress which was weird. I got a little curious so I decided to open it. "I'll just take a peek and close it back up." When I opened it up I was greeted with a note.

Dear Shadow and Raven Price, I hope you two have a wonderfull birthday I'm sorry that I was never there for you but I hope that you'll like my gift, you may not know what to do with it now but the time will come when you do and when that time arises come find me.

- sincerely Professor S"

...Who the FUCK is Professor S. As I stand here confuesed I sat the note down and reach inside the pakage and all that was in it was a small black and purple box and some bubble wrap. "Duhh fuck is this rubix cube ass box, like I't dosint even open." Before I could finish rousting It there was a knock on the door so I put the box and the note back in the package and went to go see who it was.

When I opened the door I saw Paige holding a passed out Raven over her shoulder. "Let me guess, she over worked herself again?" "Yup" Paige answered. "Lay her down on the couch." As Paige laid Raven on the couch I decided to make dinner. "Are you able to stay for dinner?" I asked. "Naw its getting late so I gotta head home..oh and by the way can you do me a favor tomorrow?" She asked. "Hmmm depends...what do you want me to do?" I asked worried.

"I need you to pretend to be my boyfriend so I can get this creep off my back." She stated. "Sure, anything for an old friend." "REALY! thats great, thank you thank you thank you!" She yelled with exitment. She ran up to me and gave me a big huge and kissed me on the check then stormed out and yelled "I'LL BE HERE TOMORROW AT THREE OH AND BRING SPARK AND RAVEN IF YOU WANT!!"

"What did I just get myself into?" Raven was passed out and Mom was'nt coming home anytime soon so I finished making dinner and left their plates in the fridge and after I ate my delicious Chicken n Rice I went to my room to go to sleep early and prepare for my big day tomorrow.
