Before anyone freaks out, yes there has been a Title and Summary change. It's better than what was before, but here's the full summary because it wouldn't fit:

Ravannah Blair Sanderson and Alexandria Vera Makarov have just begun their Sophomore year together. Which has had a very weird vibe to it. Both of them having to deal with their group of friends, family and some odd relationships - these two friends have to band together to survive the perils of high school. Especially when Alex's brother is none other than the notoriously bad Vladimir Makarov. Nor is it for Ravannah and Gary being the only set of twins in school. But can their friendships and relationships survive the year?

Ravannah Sanderson belongs to QuietAlias, who is not on fanfiction. We're writing this together and share the story.

P.S. John MacTavish is Jason in this. Two John's was confusing!

OoOo

The third week of school has begun, teens still groggy from summer vacation being over. Sun barely peeking over the east horizon, Ravannah checked her watch. It was 6:30 in the morning, but she and Alex were the only ones out of their group present. Usually, everyone is here by now so they could walk to the diner around the corner and get some breakfast that didn't taste like the cardboard 'food' the school served. As a gust of wind blew Ravannah's bangs into her eyes again, she sighed loudly. "I flipped my brother out of bed when I left this morning, I hope he didn't just inch under his bed again to fall back asleep."

Alex shoved her hands in her pockets and watched as kids entered the school, but not one of them was one of her friends. It didn't surprise her that the others weren't up yet. Boys will boys, and that meant being late.

"My brother woke me up this morning. Very rudely, actually. I tried getting Jason and Simon up this morning. But with how those two acted, you'd think they were being taken to their own funeral."

She kicked at a rock in front of her and watched it bounce off the sidewalk until it landed in the street.
Maybe if those two hadn't stayed up all night and had actually been responsible, they wouldn't feel like they hadn't slept in three days. But who was she kidding? Neither of them would ever be responsible. At least, not for anything involving the word school.

Ravannah's eyes watched as her brother Gary slunk over, his ebony, 'emo' styled hair brushed messily in to place – bangs over his left eye. He collapsed down next to her, using her shoulder to support his head.

"Ah, you're walking among us, baby bro."

Gary's nose turned up at being called baby brother, "A thirty mintute difference hardly makes me a baby brother."

"Born last makes you the baby, Gary."

Alex smiled a sleepy smile at Gary. She, like Gary, was no morning person. "Morning sleeping beauty. Get enough beauty sleep?"

He moved the bangs from his face, "I don't know, what do the bags under my eyes say? Do they say 'Alex is a sarcastic meanie'? Because that's what my brain is saying right now."
Ravannah pulls his head back onto her shoulder, "Now, now, go back to sleep. Do you need a lullaby?"
"You two are a bunch of bitches…"

Alex laughed at him and took a sip of her coffee. Out of the corner of her eye she watched as her brother, Vladimir, came around the corner of the school, slut on his arm and his gang rate behind him. She was at Jason's house all Saturday because of those two. She rolled her eyes and turned her attention back to Gary and Ravannah

"You know Gary, this sarcastic meanie rate here has a solution to your problems. Either go to sleep early so you're not so crabby, or have some of this here coffee." She smiled to herself. "Jason and Simon could probably use some coffee about now. How much longer you think they'll be, Ravannah?"

Ravannah rolled her eyes, "Jason wouldn't stop texting me last night, and the last one I got was at two thirty, him claiming that he was going to die alone. You know the final out of like, fifty text messages after I muted my phone." Her hand lifted a can of an energy drink named "Drink Me" to her lips.
"He needs to get off my sister's nuts," Gary muttered, nibbling a cookie.

Alex laughed. "I don't think there's a chance of that happening, Gar-bear. You're sister here is very attractive, if I do say so myself." Alex winked. "I'm not into to girls, but your sister is cute. Not to be creepy or anything."

He inched in his way closer to Ravannah, "Gary, we came from a split embryo, quit trying to mold us back together."

"But we are one!" His arms latched around her, "Come back to me, Ravan!"

"You are so weird!" She laughed, playfully pushing her brother away. She glanced up when she felt someone holding her shoulders, "Oh, hey, Jason? What's with the frown?"

"You quit texting me," He jokingly sniffled.

"Oh, you're such a child."

"You ain't the one who had to listen to it all night, Ravan."

Simon appeared beside him and moved over to Alex. "I was about to go over to your house, Al. How was your night anyways. Heard some yelling."

She shrugged. "Brother being an asshole again, nothing to worry about."

"I could do something about him," Gary puffed out his chest, "for my love."

Simon's fist collided with Gary's arm, "Say it again, and you'll be talking through a straw, mate."

On the floor, Gary hysterically rolled about, "Holy shit that hurt!" He laughed out through breaths.
The commotion from the small group caught the attention of the surrounding people, watching Simon shake his fist as Gary tried to calm his laughter on the floor. Jason shaking his head slowly, rolling Gary over with his foot. Ravannah and Alex just stared at each other, trying not to let out laughter themselves. They really should not encourage him. "Oh, great." Ravannah grumbled, "These idiots got your brother's friends' attentions."

Alex looked over at her brother - he didn't look happy. Actually, he never looked happy if Gary, Jason, Simon, and Ravan were involved. She looked at each of her brother's friend's faces - Rojas, Foley, Zakhaev, Volk, Yuri - and others followed. "Well shit. Now look at you idiots did!"

Her previous amusement was replaced with anger. She did not need problems with her brother this early in the day. Lunch would be fine, but not before school had even started!

Vlad casually walked over and Alex back up to Simon's chest. "Hey little sis, what's up?" Alex rolled her eyes as he looked to Gary. "And you, kid, you running your mouth again?"

Gary frantically stumbled to his feet, Ravannah pulling him gently by his arm. Her eyes glancing over to him, "Gary, are you okay?"

"Yeah," his eyes trail over Vladimir, "let's go, yeah?"

Ravannah linked her arm with Alex's, "C'mon, the diner can't wait all day and neither will school."

Alex knew Vlad wasn't done as he stepped forward. Out of her protectiveness of her friends, she grabbed her brothers arm tightly. It not only shocked her that she was willing to make such a statement in front of the school, but the crowd around them as well.

Vlad glared down at her. "Brat, let go of me rate now."

She tightened her grasp on his arm. "Vovka, don't make a scene. You don't want to beat the shit out him and get expelled on the third week of school, do you?:

It was a long shot, but it was his senior year next year. If he got expelled, he wouldn't be a senior next year. Vlad took a long look at her and then looked at someone in their group, but she paid no attention to whom. If there was one thing she knew, taking her eyes off Vlad one minute could lead to fight the next.

With a jerk that threw her against Ravan, Vlad freed his arm of her grasp. "You tell your friend to keep his fucking trap shut, got it?" Alex nodded and watched him walk back to his friends. Vlad and his friends wouldn't take being made weaklings by a sophomore so lightly, especially when that sophomore was his little sister. Now she had to go home to that today.

Alex turned around and glared at Gary. "Thank you, smart mouth, for making my life even more miserable."

Gary's eyebrows furrowed, "Whoa, wait. You back your mouth up. All I did was make a joke, and Simon had to take it up the fucking ass. I didn't do a damn thing wrong beside make a small little joke. Another thing, you're the one who grabbed his arm, not me. So, don't even look at me for anything right now, because the two mainly at fault are you and Simon."

Ravannah sighed, "How about we all just drop it and get some breakfast? It's six-forty-five in the morning, we're all tired and we're all hungry."

Alex glared at Gary. He had his point though. She sighed and hit Gary playfully. "Dude, I wish I could stay mad at you for more than three minutes." She wasn't mad at him or at Simon rate now, but just worried about going home. Home meant Vlad and his gang.
She looked to Ravan. "Hey, if my mom will let me, can I spend the night at your house, say, for the rest of my life? I mean, I love all you, but I really don't feel like dying."

Ravannah chuckled slightly as they made their way towards the diner, "I could go home with you after school today, if you want."

Jason looked back to see Vlad watching them leave, "There's something up with him, like he's got a hard-on for our group. I mean, I understand sibling rivalry, but this is ridiculous."

"The worst Ravannah and I get is fighting of the Xbox," he gestured towards a bruise on his upper right arm, "Those can be deadly, though."

Alex looked back at her brother. "He's had a stick up his ass the last couple days, more than usual."
Simon chuckled. "Maybe it's the dead fish you threw up in his room."

Alex smiled sweetly and opened the door to the diner for the group. She winked at Jason. "Or maybe he figured out who poked holes in all his condoms. And thank you for the idea, Jase."

Ravannah's mouth pulled to the left to make a smile, "Yeah, well, we're all going to be in hell for the rest of the school year, lovelies. Better get used to it."

Jason inched into the booth next to her, before Gary could even get close enough. Reluctantly, Gary pulls out a chair from the connecting table, "Keep your hands off of my sister, MacTavish."

Jason raised an eyebrow and put an arm over Ravan's shoulders. "Technically, this is an arm, not a hand."
