A/N: In this fic, Zack and Cody go to a school which the high school is combined with an elementary school.

Chapter 1: New Kids

It was another day at Streevers Community School, where Zack would doze off in class and Cody would write notes. Their art teacher would drone on and on about how to draw impressionist style drawing perfectly. It was already thirty-five minutes into the lesson and they yet to start to do some actual work. Some pupils were beginning to realise why Zack would sleep in class.

When fifth period finally finished everyone emptied the classroom and headed towards the english corridor. Zack went to a different class than Cody. They weren't in the same sets-Zack was in the lower one while Cody was in the highest. Once Cody's class settled down, Ms. Daleset, who looked a LOT like a man, introduced a new student in the class. He was standing beside her. Surprisingly, he had silver hair with strands of orange. It was shaped exactly like Zack and Cody's hairstyle back when they were twelve. He also had teal-like eyes. He was probaly about the age of Zack and Cody, which was fourteen.

"Everyone, I'd like you to meet your new classmate. His name is Noah Maestus. I want you to treat him like you would treat yourselves. Oh, and I'd like someone to show him around the school." She said in a deep voice. "Cody how about you?" She said his name before he could even raise his hand. He always volounteered for everything.

"Okay." He replied, getting happy that he would get a friend other than Max and Zack. The teacher directed Noah to his seat which was next to Cody's. "So, you must be pretty smart for someone in this set." Cody said, trying to make a converstion between the two.

"If you compared me to my twin, smart wouldn't be the word I'd use." Noah said in reply.

"You have a twin?!" Cody asked, staring at him.

"Yeah, he's a complete fool. He's probably in the lowest class there is. Set four, I think." Noah said answering Cody's question.

"I've got a twin as well, and he's also in set four!" Cody said surprised that they have a lot in common. They continued to chatter throughout the whole class, which wa unsual for Cody.

Meanhile, in Zack's class. "Right, we've got another student in our class today and he'll probably be here for quite some time just like the rest of you." Zack was half-asleep, barely listening to what the teacher said. "His name is Caleb Maestus. Not that any of you would care. Speaking of him where is he?" the teacher wondered. Behind the teacher, Caleb was drawing horns and large ears on the blackboard, making it look that the teacher actually had them. This caught Zack's attention, who was now fully awake and laughing, along with the whole class. When the teacher saw what Caleb was doing, he practically yelled at the top of his lungs at him. "HOW DARE YOU! GET TO YOUR SEAT THIS INSTANCE BEFORE I CALL THE HEAD!" His face was red with anger.

"You really need a chill-pill don't you?!" Caleb said not bothered by the fact that he'd be suspended on his first day. But luckily the teacher didn't hear him. He went and sat next to Zack. Caleb looked like Noah, but their were a few differences-he had silver hair with strands of red, and his eye colour was hazel. And if you looked closely you could tell he had contacts.

"Man that was a classic!" Zack said to Caleb as he sat down. "You really got him pissed!"

"That's nothing, you should see me when I'm prepared." Caleb said smirking, taking out his books. "What's your name?"

"Zack, but don't call me that when you see me." Caleb had a confused look on his face. "I've got a twin." Was all he said.

"Funny, I've got one too. He's a complete nerd! What's your's like?"

"Just like yours!" Zack said, wondering what the chances that there were TWO sets of twins in the same grade. After second period finished, Zack took Caleb to his, Cody's, Max's and Reylia's hang out spot. It was by the tree which provided a lot of shade from the blazing Sun.

Once the two got there, they already saw the 'gang' there. Except there was an extra person-Noah. Caleb let out a grunt when he saw his twin.

"Hey Zack. Hey..."Max wondered what Caleb's name was.

"Caleb," Caleb said informing her. He also blushed slightly when he saw her. "I see you've already met Noah."

"Yeah, it's kinda weird seeing two twins. But it's easier knowing the difference between Noah and... Caleb." Reylia said, the very girl Cody had a huge crush on. And she knew about it but didn't say anything. Noone thought Cody would be a person to like, even if she was buff. She had blonde hair, green eye, she always had a smile on her face and always was optimistic. But the best thing was that she wasn't like every other girl-but she wasn't like a tomboy either. She was in between.

Noah's phone rang, and he picked. "Yeah, by the tree. I thought you sa-" Apparantly he got cut off by the other person on the phone. "Fine. Alright. Tell Caleb that! Okay, bye." When he turned around to face the others, he saw Caleb giving him a look. "What!?" Caleb just looked away.

"So, who was that?" Zack asked, always butting into someone elses' buisness.

"Zack! You can't just but into someone elses' buisness! It's rude and an invasion of privacy." Cody yelled at him, Zack shot him a 'shut up and get lost look'. Cody ignored it.

"Hey, it doesn't matter. Besides, you might the person anyway since she does come to the same school. Her name is Jaycee, my cousin." Noah said, being kind. Max instantly turned red and clenched her fists.

"WHAT!?! YOU MEAN THAT THAT LYING, HANDICAP, PIG OF A PERSON IS YOUR COUSIN?!" Max yelled so loud that the others had to cover their ears. Noah and Caleb looked offended.

"Max, you're so rude! Learn some manners." Reylia told her, trying to calm her down. She knew that Max HATED Jaycee to death. She'd rather murder everyone she loved and knew instead of see Jaycee's face. But Reylia also knew that Zack liked Jaycee. She was the only person to know, and she had to keep it a secret. If Max knew...

"Listen Max, you may hate her, but she's also Noah's and Caleb's cousin. And even if she's standing right behind you, you have to act in a mature manner." Cody said.

Max's eye's widened in anger. There was so much anger building up inside of her, that she almost passed out. "Hey, manimal." Jaycee said to Max teasingly. Max was about to give her a blow to the face, but realised that Reylia held her wrist tight. Knowing she would try something.

"Jaycee! Apologize right know!" Caleb screamed at her.

"Why should I? She's the one that should apologize!" Jaycee looked at him.

"Beacause we're older than you, and you should know better, no matter what she or you did." Caleb said while glaring at her.

"Only by a year! And personally I'd stuff my mouth with explosives than apologize to that thing you call human!" Jaycee shot back. Max was about to say something but Reylia stopped her. She was kind of like a peacekeeper. Meanwhile Caleb carried on glaring at her. "Stop glaring at me!" He kept glaring. "STOP! I can't take it!" Jaycee yelled. Caleb carried on glaring. "FINE!" she said, "Sorry." She said it so quietly that any of them could barely hear.

Max, Cody, Zack and Reylia let their jaws drop and stared wide-eyed at Jaycee. None of them thought that Jaycee would ever say that, but she just did. They were all speechless. Caleb however could get Jaycee to sayanything and everything if he wanted. All he would have to do is glare at her. He once thought about finding her deepest, darkest secrets, but knew it was wrong.

"Thank you, now go home." Noah said.

"Or what?" Jaycee asked, ignoring those who were staring at her.

"Or we'll tell Talus." Noah replied.

"You never let me have any fun your around. Luckily your living in that damn hotel instead of my house." Jaycee said storming off.

"Hotel? What hotel?" Zack asked.

"Well, since there isn't any extra space at Jaycee's house for us to stay, and seeing as we moved from Spain to here, where we don't have a house, we have to stay at the Tipton Hotel. I think." Noah said.

"That's where I live!" Zack and Cody said in unison. "What a coincedence!" Cody said.

"Who's Talus?" Max asked.

"Our older brother, he's nineteen. He's the one that looks after us. After what happened with our parents..." Caleb trailed off mid-sentence. Zack was about to say something but Reylia prevented him from doing so.

"Say, why don't we go back to th hotel and introduce you to maddie? You should really meet her." Cody said, trying to lighten the mood. Max left for her house,as did Reylia. And the four boys headed for the Tipton.
