Author's Note: Kay so. Haha had this idea a couple of days ago and it doesn't really look like much now but it should get better. And this is just the prologue so yeah. Anyways it was inspired by this game on SF (sprouse-fans) forum called the Ask Zack Game or w/e. So anyways this is what you get out of it haha. Oh and it takes place after the episode Ask Zack.

Ask Alex
By: Fig
Prologue
Zack Martin sat back in the computer chair and grinned. The webpage stared back at him.
"All I need now is a name," He thought with delight as the cursor blinked, parked a space away from the word 'ASK.'
After the Ask Shirley column had backfired, Zack had realized that he really did love giving advice and what better place to do it then the World Wide Web? So he'd borrowed a book on Internet Publishing from the library (Wow. Revere Junior High really did have a library) and set up his own webpage. It was perfect. All he needed was a name.
He'd decided to make it anonymous. I mean who would want to get advice from a kid they knew from school; someone that knew them? Someone that could (and would) make fun of them. Nobody; nobody would.
Zack tapped the edge of the desk impatiently. Anything that rhymed with Zack would be way too obvious. The name had to be completely original.
"Ask…ask…Ask…Ryan? No. Ask Matt? Maybe…Ask…ask…ask…ask…Allen…ew no. Ask…"
A buddy alert popped up in the right hand corner of the laptop. Zack lunged at it, immediately clicking it and typing.
ZackAttack8492: dude gimme a random guys name!
Bob McBobSkee123: y?
ZackAttack8492: just do it!
Bob McBobSkee123: uhhh…michel
ZackAttack8492: no
Bob McBobSkee123: idk…y u need one?
ZackAttack8492: im getting a hamster and need a name. just give me one.
Bob McBobSkee123: uhhh…alex?
"Alex…Alex…Ask Alex. Perfect."
ZackAttack8492: that's PERFECT. thnx man
Zack closed out of the window and signed off before Bob could respond. He restored the window with his webpage on and typed in the name. The page now read:
ASK ALEX
the answer to all your normal problems
WARNING:
Ask Alex is not to be held responsible for you're dumb mistakes that get you grounded or cause permanent damage.
Zack grinned again. Tomorrow Ask Alex would officially open for business, not that he was getting paid for it. But for now, alone in his room (with the exception of Cody, who was asleep) at 1 in the morning, it was enough to make him feel proud that he'd done something that someone, somewhere could be proud of.
Zack was still smiling as he closed out of the few windows he still had open and shut down the laptop.
"Who knows where this could go?" He mused as he climbed into bed, "This could be the beginning of a revolution. I could really help people."
"And," His thoughts continued as he pulled the covers up under his chin, "this is only the beginning."
