I don't own so ya. Warren may be slightly OOC but this is his sister he loves her. Also I may not be able to update like every day like I want to because I'm in my school's play and we have rehearsals till late and all. But if I don't get one up during the week I'll post two one the weekends. Deal?

I stormed inside the brightly lit building and to my locker. I opened the lock with my mind to mad to do it manually and shoved my books in to it. Taking what I what I needed for my first three classes. I slammed my locker shut. "You ok?" I herd a gruff voice comment next to me. I look over to see my brother leaning against the green metal lockers with a hint of a smile in his eyes. "Shut it Warren" I growled starting to walk away. He fallowed me to the library where Mrs. Hunter smiled her sweet old lady smile at me, the only genuine smile I hade received that day. "I saw what happened out there" he said still fallowing me "And?" I questioned "And I'm proud of you, not many care what happens to others here." I paused a second then continued at the pace I was before "Well I'm not like every one at this flippin school now am I?"

Warren sighed. Ever since his sophomore year here he had changed. Thanks to Will Stronghold. "Your getting more like me every day" I locked eyes with the older boy I call my brother and smiled a small smile. "Well that's what happens to people who live with you" He shoved me playfully "What I'm saying is that's Lash, he's an ass. He just acts that way to get a rise out of you." I sighed and as so the bell rang. "I have to go" Was all I said as I retreated out the door. I faintly herd him call out after me "Don't kill anyone" I rolled my eyes and muttered under my breath. I walked into Mad Sci class and take a seat. I glance at The teacher as I walk in. That's strange I thought we have a sub. I half listened as she babbled on about her self when she said something that caught my attention "You will be working on partners on this project" she said in her scratchy voice. "This says that you are to build a shrink ray by Friday. So grab a partner and get started." It was a mad house of people trying to get the partners that they wanted. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see who it was. I smiled when I saw that Matt, one of my best friends and a person who works in Uncle Bob's Mechanics with me, was standing there with a puppy dog look on his face. "Sit down you big lug" I laughed at him. His blue eyes twinkled as he plopped on the uncomfortable stool. (ha ha you thought that it would be Lash didn't you don't worry he comes in later) The lady looked at us with a smile on her face. That is so fake I thought. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. The small woman (who was still taller then me) hobbled over to the door and opened it. I was searching threw my bag when Matt tapped me on the shoulder. There was some kid standing in the doorway with a paper in his hand. "Is there an Adriana in this class?" The lady asked "Ya. . . Why?" I said suspicious "Well your to report to the office. I guess the councilors wants to speak with you." "About what?" I asked still curious. "Oh I don't know, just go"

I sighed as I gathered my things giving Matt a apology under my breath. I then slip out the door in my usual quiet way. I walk down the hall by my self slightly unnerved. Even in Sky High where every thing is bright and happy all the time it is still creepy to walk the halls alone. I get to the councilors door and knock softly waiting for a reply. "Come in" Said a burly voice from the other side of the hard oak door. I pushed it open with some difficulty but managed. At a desk sat a man with dark hair that was starting to gray at the temples and a goatee and kind but hard eyes. In front of him sat Lash kicked back in a reclining position with his feet on the desk and his hands behind his head. They both looked at me as I entered. "Please sit down" said the man and I did so curiously. If this was about the fights then I was going to explode. I mean they weren't my fault. So I was trying to protect the innocent. Wasn't what this school was all about? As these thoughts ran threw my head the man started to talk. "Hello Adriana, I don't think we've met. My name is Mr. Douglas. Now I'm going to get right to the point here. Lash is failing every single one of his classes. Now I know that the two of you don't get along but Adriana, your at the top of the class. So I was thinking that you could be his tutor. I know that you have things you would rather do than helping someone you don't like do there homework, but I have a proposition for you" By the time he finished I was stunned. Did he rely think that we would be able to stay in the same room together with out killing one another? I over at Lash threw the corner of my eye. He looked like he was ready to die. I laughed quietly to myself, then the next words said caught my attention. "I'll write you any recommendation that you want for college and even talk to my buddies in the scholarship program. Sound like a deal?" I thought for a moment. I hade bin planning on graduating early and the recommendations would diffidently help not to mention the money for college. I answered hesitantly "I. . . I'll do it." Mr. Douglas looked pleased "Grate you two can work out the plans and such. You will report to me weakly and I want to see progress." The last part was said to Lash. I nodded my head and walked out the door.

"Don't think that just 'cause your tutoring me now makes you better than me. Because your not, you know. Every one thinks that your little Miss perfect, but I see threw you" Said a cruel voice behind me. I turned around to see Lash with his arms crossed. I looked him in his hard brown eye. "Listen to me and listen well you arrogant villain to be. I have always bin better than you, do you wanna know why? Because I don't go around torturing people who can't help them selves. No you see you may be king jock or the tough guy on campus, but look around. Can you tell me that your truly happy? That you can look at your self in the mirror and look your self in the eyes? No I don't think that you can. Never say any thing like that to me again" I turned to leave when I was about five feet away I said "I'm free every Thursday from 3 to 6. Meet me in the library if you actually care. And don't say crap about my grades. I work my ass off for them." With that I left a very disgruntled teenage boy standing in a brightly lit room thinking about what I said.
