Chapter 1

A/N Thanks to the three people that read/viewed my last chapter. I don't expect this to be very popular though, as no-one will go looking for it. Oh well!

The two boys walked across the bridge to get to Terrabithia. Jesse pushed all the plants out of the way to enable him and his former sister to get through. The giant with the face of Janice Avery was the first they saw. She bent down and held out her hand for the boys to stand onto. She lifted them up high.

"Jesse?" she breathed.

"Uh, Hi?" Jesse tried, looking up at the giants head. "We came to see if you can recognise who this is," He said, pushing the male version of May-Belle forward.

"It's the Princess of Terrabithia," she responded after a while.

"Thanks," Jesse said, as they were put down. He and his brother quickly went back to the house, in utter confusion.

"Jesse, what do I do?" The former girl cried in confusion.

"Uh, you need a boy name," he decided, "How about…Gus?"

"Why?" 'Gus' asked.

"Because, Gus is short for August, August is a month, so is May,"

"I guess," Gus said, wiping a tear from his eye as he sat in his and Jesse's room.

"Come on, we'd best tell mom and dad," Jesse said, getting up.

"Why?" Gus asked.

"They're going to notice at some point, we'd best explain now,"

"Fine," was the only reply he got, as both boys nervously went downstairs.

"Mom, dad, we need to tell you something," Jesse said, as he entered the living room followed by his curly haired brother.

"What is it, honey?" His mom asked, not really looking up, but when she did and noticed Gus, she didn't even suspect a thing. "New friend? I'm glad you finally got over Leslie, but isn't he a bit young?"

"Mom, dad, this is May-Belle," Jesse said, wincing as he got ready for their reactions.

"What-what do you mean?" The boys' father asked, confused.

"I don't know," Gus said, confused, trying to seem sweet. But he wasn't sweet anymore, just annoying as it seemed. "One minute I was a girl, posing in front of mom's mirror, the next I was a boy!"

Their dad's face was a mixture of shock and confusion. "How did this happen?"

Tears started to re-appear on Gus' cheeks, "I don't know!" he sobbed.

"Jesse, how do you know this is true?" their mother asked.

"The Terrabithian's confirmed it!" he stated.

"Not your made up universe again," their dad sighed.

"I didn't make it up," Jesse half yelled, "Now, can you help us figure out how to turn Gus back into May-Belle,"

"First, I think you should lend him some of your clothes," their mother commented, looking down at Gus' hairy legs in May-Belle's dress.

"Okay," Jesse sighed, "Come on,"

oOoOoOoOo

"See ya Justin, I'm going to miss you," Zeke said, as he was about to leave the sub shop, and not return for four months.

"Yeah, I'm gonna miss you buddy," Justin said, slapping him on the arm.

"Well, bye Zeke," Alex said not really caring.

"Bye Zeke," Harper said, sadly.

"Bye Harper," he said simply.

"Okay, I can't believe I'm saying this," Harper took a deep breath, ready to admit her true feelings, "I like you Zeke,"

"Wait, what?" came Zeke's reply.

"Well, I'll see ya in PE," Harper said, running out. Zeke still looked shocked, but didn't let it bother him. He turned to Maxine.

"See you Maxine, you might not be here when I get back, so, bye," he said to the girl. "Robot walk out," he started doing a weird walk out of the sub shop, on his way to Lark Creek, Virginia. As much as Zeke had begged his parents to let him stay, he wasn't allowed. As much as the Russo's would miss him, and he'd miss them. Him going away changed lives. Whose lives, you may ask? May-Belle's, Max's, Jesse's, Alex's, Justin's, everyone who knew the two who swapped bodies.

oOoOoOoOo

Gus slowly stepped onto the school bus. He wished Jesse could've been there to explain, but Jesse was in 9th grade now. He ignored the confused looks, but decided it was best to sit at the front alone for now. His parents had rung up to school, and explained that May-Belle had done a switch with her cousin from the city temporarily, the best possible explanation.

But it didn't cheer Gus up. He wanted to be a girl again, do his long hair and wear pretty dresses. Play with his Barbie's and not be told off. His parents had started treating him like a boy. So had his older sisters. It was just Jesse who still treated him like the girl he was inside. And Gus was sick of it. He was sick of waiting around. He wanted something to be done. Something to be done now!

A/N So, how's this chapter? I hoped you liked it, and thanks for reading! I wasn't sure how old the characters would be, but Bride to Terrabithia came out in 2007, and Wizards of Waverly Place Season 4 came out 2010-2012, so I guessed about 4 years, I kind-of mixed around the ages a bit though. Next chapter will be next Wednesday. Oh, and thanks Zora for the review x
