Author Note; Okay one thing before I start this story I had to do one thing in this story the pups are human children. Ryder is 18 years old. This is also told from Everest and the other characters point of view.
Chapter 1 My Sworn Enemy.
I love Jake I really do, he's the one who found me in the south pole and he gave me a new home. Jake is always there for me and I'll always be there for him. But there is one thing that Jake has that I can't stand, the only thing in the world that makes me angry. Or should I say that only woman in the world, Jake's girlfriend Leah. I can't stand her! Leah is mean and isn't nice, before I meet Leah it was just me and Jake. Happy as could be it was perfect I could help out on the mountain after school, I had no chores, and I could go play with the others as long as I was back by 7:30pm on school nights and my bedtime was at 8:30. Now that Leah's moved in she suggested to Jake that I do my homework right after school, which mean unless I finish it fast I can't help out on the mountains because it closes at 4:30pm on weekdays. I now have some chores to do like washing the dishes, me and Jake normally do that together now I do them alone. Worst of all she convinced Jake that I should be home by 7:00! And he said yes, if you're wondering where I am right now I'm in my room because Leah got me grounded for "disrespecting her". All I said was that she shouldn't be here anymore because no one wants you around here. So Jake took my phone, laptop and TV, I can't even help out on the mountain. The only way I can leave is if there an mission and of course school, other than that I can't.
"Everest?" I heard Jake knock on the door before he came in I turned away from him I was too upset. "Come on Everest don't be like that".
"Don't be like what!?" I didn't want to snap at Jake but I was to upset to care. "I didn't even do anything now I'm grounded why do you treat that girl so much better than me!" I felt my mattress go down as Jake sat on my bed.
"Everest you know that's not true", Jake placed his hand on my shoulder and turned me around to face him. "Everest why do you dislike Leah so much, she trying to be your friend".
"No she not she mean and got me grounded!" I yelled immediately looked down I didn't want to yell at Jake.
"Everest she didn't get you grounded you got yourself grounded by being disrespectful ", I couldn't believe my ears. Once again Jake was taking her side!
"You're doing it again", I said softly.
"What am I doing", I felt sick to my stomach how could Jake not see what he was doing to me.
"You're taking her side again", I told him, I heard Jake sigh loudly.
"Everest I'm not taking anyone side", Jake said.
"Yes you are!" I looked up at him and shot him my best glare. "Every great suggestion Leah makes you make me do it, I used to be able to alot of thing now that Leah here. I can't even help out on the mountain after school, my homework takes forever to do, so by the time I finish and go to play with my friends. It's almost time for me to leave it's not far!". I turned away from Jake maybe now he'll understand why Leah needs to go.
"Everest have you ever asked Leah to help you with your homework?" Jake asked me.
" No", I was wondering where he was going with this. "Why would ask her for help?".
"Has Leah ever offered to help you with your homework?" I looked at Jake confused.
"Yes", I answered.
"And have you ever accepted her offer?" Why was he asking all these questions.
"No", Jake smiled at me.
"Well maybe you should ask her for help Leah is very smart", Leah smart yeah right.
"So can I no longer be grounded?" I asked.
"No you're still grounded but it's only for 2 days", I groaned.
"Can I least get my phone back, what if Ryder calls me for a mission?" Jake went in his pocket and pulled out my phone.
"Yes you can have your phone back", I smiled and gave Jake a hug. I bet you all my money Leah wouldn't give me my phone back!
"I'll call you down for dinner at around 5:30 alright ", I nodded my head and Jake left my room. I smiled to myself I had so many games on my phone these two days would go by so quick. I turned on my phone and screamed, there was a pass code on it now.
Jake POV
When I heard Everest scream I knew she found my little surprise. I know how important missions are so I made sure that she can only use her phone, to answer calls from Ryder. Sigh I wish that Everest would just tell me that she just a little bit jealous of Leah. I know she is, I guess I should start with how I meet Leah. I meet her at a snowboarding competition 5 years back and we really hit it off. She is beautiful, Leah has long brown hair that look awesome in the snow. She has the brightest blue eyes I've ever seen, except for Marshall. I could go on and on about why I love Leah, but the thing I love the most is she is never mean to anyone. Leah knows that Everest doesn't like her that much but Leah doesn't let that bother her. In fact I'm pretty sure that she takes it as motivation because she has tried even harder to get Everest to like her.
"I'm guessing she isn't that happy right now?" Leah was just leaving the kitchen with a plate of cookies in her hand.
"Not really", Leah smiled, she has the whitest teeth in the world, I swear every time she smiles I can see my reflection in her teeth.
"Well maybe these cookies will cheer her up", Leah offered me a cookie which I gladly excepted. Leah makes the best cookies in the world, heck she is the best cook in the world. "I'm guessing you're getting ready for a quick patrol of the mountain".
"Yeap I should be back by closing time alright", she gave me a quick kiss on the cheek and she went to Everest room. I smiled hopefully Everest will like the cookies Leah had made, I know I did.
Leah POV
I know Everest doesn't like me, but doesn't mean I'll give up that easily. I won't force her to like me or even talk to me I just want to have a decent relationship with her. I knocked on her door before speaking. "Everest can I come in?"
"No you can't", she replied.
"Please I made you a plate of cookies there your favorite triple cookie chip", I could hear her get up from her bed. Jake once told me about the first time Everest tried chocolate, he said it was one of the best moments of his life just watching her facial expression. She opened the door, I looked down at the young girl with greyish-lavender hair with a single white streak running down the middle it's so pretty to me.
"What do you want", she stared up at me with her pretty blue eyes. I smiled at her before bent down to her level.
"I made you plate of cookies, I also thought that me and you should have as little chat", Everest took the plate of cookies and gave me a small pout. I swear she so cute when she pouts at me, trust me I get that face a lot.
"You might as well you won't leave me alone unless I let you in", she said already munching on a cookie.
"Thank you but could watch the attitude", she mumbled something. "What was that?" I asked raising my eyebrow.
"Nothing what do you want", she said facing away from me. I walked over and spun her around to she would face me. She gave me her best glare,I just smiled at her.
"Sorry I know you don't like me touching you", I quickly apologized I didn't want her to be more upset with me. "I can tell you're upset with me so do you want to talk about it".
"What I want you to do is leave my room", I had a feeling she'd say that.
"Can you drop the attitude" I asked.
"What attitude", she said walking away from me she climbed on her bed and laid down facing the wall. "You already got me Into trouble can't you just leave".
"Everest that what I wanted to talk to you about I wanted to explain why we grounded you", she turned around and looked at me.
"I know why because I was disrespectful but I didn't even do anything!" I held my hands out infront of me.
"Easy Easy let's keep things calm", her expression seemed to calm down. "You were disrespectful Everest what you told me was that I shouldn't be here anymore because no one wants me here. Now what you said wouldn't have mattered if you hadn't said something like that to me yesterday and the day before that. That's why you're in trouble now" I explained to her.
"Okay okay maybe I said those things", she admitted. "But I have a right to freedom of speech".
"Yes you are however some things shouldn't be said, every time you say something like that I try to ignore it but this I couldn't let it go ", Everest looked at me and turned away from me. "I get it no kid likes to be grounded it isn't fun", I got up and walked to the door. "Is there anything want for dinner tonight?"
"I don't care", I could hear her eating the cookies I made for her that made me smile.
"Alright then see you later did you get your homework done?" I asked her.
"No I didn't start yet", she answered.
"If you want I could help you".
"No I don't need your help", I nodded my head before leaving the room and went to start dinner.
See why I dislike her so much, she just so annoying but I will give her some credit she does make good cookies. I should start on my homework but I don't feel like it right now. What I really want to do is go outside even if it is for a minute it been snowing for 4 hours now. So the ground is perfect for sliding, I pulled in my jacket and slipped on my boots. I quietly snuck my way into the hallway I know that Leah was too busy cooking to notice me. I quickly check the kitchen sure enough Leah was cutting onions. I placed my hand on the door knob, when I felt a hand grab my shoulder.
"So Everest where are you going", Leah spun me around and she didn't look very happy. She had crossed her arms over her chest and was trying to look scary.
"I just wanted to go outside", I said. Leah kneeled down and looked me directly in the eyes.
"Everest you're grounded meaning you can't leave your room do you understand me", she said.
"Yeah I understand you", I said looking at the floor. Leah placed her hand on my chin and made me look at her again.
"I mean it", I stomped back to my room and slammed the door shut. My door flew open and Leah came in she grabbed me by my arm and took back into the living room. "Let's try that again this time without slamming the door".
I couldn't believe my ears. Before I could even say anything she placed her finger over my lips. I decided to do what she said and throw my coat on the ground followed by my boots. It wasn't fair who did she think she was, I didn't have anything better to do so I decided to do my homework. At 5:25 I heard Jake call me for dinner, I went to kitchen right as Leah was finishing up.
"Can I please be ungrounded now?" I asked Jake, he shook his head no. I sat down table and Leah put a plate of food in front of me.
"Tonight we are having Liver and Bacon sautè with potatoes and parsley enjoy", I looked at my food for a long time, when I finally tried it I couldn't believe it, this tasted great!
"How does it taste Everest?" Asked Leah.
"It's really really good", I said.
"That's great I'm glad you like it" Leah told me with a smile. Honestly why does she smile so much doesn't anything make her upset. I finished my food quickly and went out to the living room, I sat on the couch switched on the TV. I started to flick through the channels when the remote was taken out my hand.
"Everest maybe I should explain how grounding works your suppose to stay in your room", I groaned why couldn't Leah just leave me alone. I was only seeing what was on TV, I was going to go back to my room eventually.
"Give it back", I reached up and tried to take it back, but Leah held it just out of my reach.
"Everest please go back to your room", said Leah.
"Or what!" I snapped.
"Or I will add an extra day to your grounding", I looked at at Leah shocked.
"You can't do that!" I shouted.
"Everest I can and I will", Leah placed her hand on my shoulder. "But I don't want to so can you please just go as I say and head back to your room".
"No!" I slapped her hand off my shoulder. "This isn't fair I didn't do anything to get grounded in the first place!" I have had enough of Leah why was she still here. Couldn't Jake see it should just be the two of us.
"Everest calm down", Jake came into the room.
"No I don't want to calm down! What I want is for her to leave me alone! Like I said before no one wants her here so why doesn't she just…".
"Everest that's enough!" I flinched when Jake rose his force. "Listen Everest I want you to go back to you room now",
"But Jake…" Jake held his hand out to stop me.
"Everest I don't want to hear a word just head back to your room okay", Jake told me.
"But Jake why should I…"
"Now!" Blinking back tears I ran back to my room and slammed my door shut. I jumped onto my bed and started crying into my pillow. This isn't fair once again i'm in trouble for what Leah did, now Jake is mad at me. It must have been an hour before I heard someone knock on my door. My door creaked open and Jake sat down on my bed, I still had my face in my pillow. Which was now wet from my crying, Jake softly rubbed my back like he always does when I'm upset.
"We need to talk", I sat up and gave Jake a hug he lifted me up and sat me on his lap. I laid my head on his chest and he ran his hand through my hair. This is how it's supposed to be just me and Jake no Leah.
"I guess you're mad at me", I said.
"Not mad just disappointed in you what a really what to know why did you turn on the TV? You knew you were grounded yet you still turned in on", I could hear the disappointment in his voice.
"I don't know", I really don't know why I turned on the TV I really didn't know.
"Everest I think you do know why, let me ask you this? Did you do it to Leah attention?", asked Jake.
"Of course not why would I want her attention?" I felt disgusted that Jake would even suggest that.
"Everest this isn't like you at all ever since Leah moved in its almost like your jealous of her", said Jake.
"I'm not jealous of her I would never be jealous of her", Jake chuckled almost like he didn't believe me. "I'm not jealous of her am I", I couldn't help but think that.
"I talked with Leah before I came into the room?", oh no when ever Jake talks with Leah it always mean trouble. "And we've discussed what to do, now you have two options A stay grounded for 2 days or B you spend a couple hours with Leah tomorrow".
"Wait for me to be unground all I haft to do is spend a couple hours with Leah tomorrow ", I wanted to make sure this wasn't a trick.
"Yeah that's all it takes I know that you have a half day tomorrow for school so if you choice you can spend a couple hours with Leah or be grounded", I weighed my options. Sit in my room and be bored for two more days or spend a couple hours with my sworn enemy.
"Okay I'll spend a couple hours with Leah", I said.
"Good I'll tell her what you've decided alright", I climbed off of Jake's lap he walked out my room. I hope I didn't just make a huge mistake.
