Every time one of us screws up, we are merely pale imitations of our elders. They are the original ne'er-do-wells. Let me prove it unless, of course, you've heard by brother's rant and believe me to be unstable.

Connor- so calm, so polite, you would think his only flaw was his silence. Yet the CIA, the FBI, M16, and the Mossad are all searching for him. They don't actually know that it's him. They believe that there's a hacker out there named "Hades". Hades has stolen money, accessed highly classified information, and has even changed mission orders. Needless to say, they want him dead or alive. I just want him to stop endangering everyone.

Quinn, Quinn, Quinn- you may actually be the least fucked- up out of all of us. You dabble in underage drinking, breaking girls' hearts, and starting brawls. So, basically, you are acting like an average nineteen year old. You would have done well at college and with life in general, if you had been able to go. Wish I could say the same about your girlfriend.

Nobody would believe it of such a brilliant, pretty, genuinely nice girl. After all why would a girl who has it all- close friends, loving family, talent and a great future- try to commit suicide? A cynic might say Hunter does it to get attention or her way, but I saw the scars on her wrists. Vertical scars can mean one thing only- that she was completely serious about going through with it.

Duncan the Druggie- it has quite a ring to it, doesn't it? It might be because he's the poetic one, or it may be a lingering effect of his change. All I know is that Duncan smokes weed as often as Joan Rivers curses. He claims it inspires him. I'm getting inspired to ship him to Betty Ford, asap.

The only reason Lucy doesn't fear Marcus is because she has no idea what he does. He hides his experiments from everyone, and with good reason. Supposedly he studies how much stress the body can take. The reality- he takes corpses and the near dead, and puts them through hell for "science". He does it to "advance modern medicine to the point that people like Lucy get to enjoy a long life." Yet the ones he treats the worst are those who bear a resemblance to Lucy.

Sebastian and Serena- the ultimate duo. Don't recognize Serena? She's Seb's other personality. She showed up at his eighteenth wearing a poison green dress trimmed with ostrich feathers. When we asked him about it the next night, he had no recollection of it. He probably should've seen a doctor but Seb thought he was a vampire and Serena preferred that we didn't use her full title, the glorious empress of the Atomay Empire. The sad thing was that this isn't even the worst thing to happen in my family. What's mental illness to theft, murder, drug and alcohol addiction, suicide and bringing the world to its knees- all before age 25?
