I really liked what you did! Thanks for the cool review! This chapter is dedicated to you!

Alexandria's POV

It was later on in the day, and I had free period. I was out on the quad walking around looking for Luke when I saw those British kids looking at me from a distance. I raised my eyebrow as I walked towards them. "Hi. Listen I'm sorry about earlier. I'm really protective of my friends, and when I get angry or heated another side of me comes out. Snix. I can't control what she says, but I can apologize about what she said, or what I said really. Anyways I'm sorry and yeah. Bye."

I quickly walked away. I spotted Luke across the quad smiling at me. I smiled back and ran across and met him in a hug. "I apologized to them."

He just smiled at me and hugged me once more. We were sitting under a big tree outside when Eddie ran outside towards us. "C'mon we gotta go!"

He grabbed me and helped me up. "What? Wait! Eddie where are you taking us?"

"The hospital. Nina was in an accident."

We pulled up to Eastwood Memorial Hospital. We ran into the receptionist area. Eddie quickly asked to go see Nina, but wouldn't let Luke and I in since we weren't immediate family. In order to get in Eddie lied and said that he was her brother to get in. Luke and I waited anxiously in the waiting room. About an hour later Eddie came out. We looked at him expectantly. His face was dead and his voice held sadness as he said "She's in a coma."

Eddie's POV

It's been a week. A week since she got into that accident and went into that coma. It's all my fault. I was the one texting her when she got into that accident. I was trying to apologize about the other day at her house.

I walked into school cruising down the hallway. Sympathetic looks were thrown my way. It wasn't until Simone ran up to me in the hallway. "Why am I just finding out that she is in the hospital? Did everyone know before me?"

"Well you would know if you hadn't shut everyone out. You can break up with Brandon and get into a fight with the girls but I am still here. I'm still your friend. If you don't mind I have to go meet your ex. See you around Simone."

I walked around her and out towards the cafeteria where Brandon was waiting for me.

Alexandria's POV

Saturday. For the first time everyone is in Nina's hospital room. She hasn't showed any signs of waking up. A lot of people have given teddy bears and flowers.

I sat in a chair by the window in her hospital room. Eddie stood by her bed, Simone was on the other side of her bed, Brandon was standing in a back corner and Luke stood at the foot of her bed. The tension in the room was thick. "Guys I'm going to go." Said Simone.

Brandon scoffed. "Of course you would leave like that."

Simone spun around to look at him. "What's that supposed to mean?"

Eddie jumped in. "It means you leave when things get tough."

"Eddie's right. You do leave, and you lie and keep secrets." I said.

Simone raised her hands up in surrender. "Jeez. I'm sorry. What is this pick on Simone day?"

All of four of us erupted into a huge argument. "Enough!" shouted Luke. All of our heads darted towards him. "I am sick and tired of all the fighting. Have you guys not noticed we haven't hung out all together once. Everything is falling apart. Now look at that bed. You know who's in that bed? One of our friends. She doesn't need that while she's in this state. So can you all take a one god damn minute to not think about yourselves or your problems because hers are much worse. Nina is like a sister to me, and I want her to wake up as much as the next person if not even more. You guys can either work out your problems or get the hell out of her room."

The four of us made our way to the cafeteria. We sat down at one of the empty tables near the back. We sat in silence. We exchanged dirty looks for what seemed like hours. "What was that back there?" asked Simone.

She looked at each and every last one of us. "Destruction." said Eddie. We all looked at him hoping he would explain further. He looked at us ridiculously then rolled his eyes. "We are tearing each other down. Which will sooner end up in the destruction of our group itself. We are causing our own pain and our own troubles and we're taking out all of our anger on each other."

"What are you saying?" Asked Brandon.

"What I'm saying is that if we don't get past whatever this is. Then it's all over. Everything will just die."

I chose to speak then. "So we really have to talk about this don't we? 'Cause we can't throw this all away. I mean we've been friends forever. Since kindergarten. Hold on. I have something to show you guys."

I took out my phone and looked through my library. I showed them the picture. Simone smiled softly. "That's us. First day of high school."

Brandon spoke softly. "I remember that day. We all do."

Flashback:

3rd Person POV

The loud buses were pulling up into the bus lanes of Eastwood High. A 14 year old Nina stepped off the bus. Her eyes darted around as she spotted the certain people she was looking for. The group of five were waving frantically at her trying to grab her attention. She ran over towards them while clutching her bag to her shoulder. "There you are! Eddie was about to send a search party." exclaimed Simone.

Nina laughed lightly as she looks over at an embarrassed Eddie. "We'll it's good to know he cares." she said as she gave him a light peck on the cheek.

Alexandria pushed the two apart. "Stop with all the lovey dovey stuff. I'm trying to enjoy my first few minutes of high school."

Eddie stuck his tongue out at her. "Guys and gals we should make a deal." Said Luke. They all raised their eyebrows and exchanged looks. "I mean we should like leave a legacy?"

Brandon seeing the hard part for his friend jumped in. "What he is attempting to say is we should leave our mark. Like be legendary."

Nina nodded along with his words. "You guys are right. Plus, we should make a pact to not let high school change us. To not let relationships and other people get to us. We should stick to who we are, and just be us. You know the... What are we exactly?" Asked Nina.

They all thought for a moment as names were thrown out there. "The six musketeers?"

"The peeps!"

"What about the All-stars?" Inquired Brandon.

"The All-stars. I like it. Anyone opposed?" Asked Alexandria.

They all smiled and exchanged looks. "High school here we come!" Exclaimed Nina.

They all walked through the double doors not knowing what was ahead of them.

End of Flasback:

Alexandria's POV

"We were naive, and didn't know what was going on. Of course we couldn't keep our pact." said Simone.

"What I'm saying is that we can still keep that pact. We might have become these all mighty people of high school, but we are still that group of six that were innocent and had big dreams. I think that we can be that same group of people again." I said

"That's the thing Lex, we aren't that same group of people anymore. We've all changed. We can't go back to the way we were." Said Brandon

I sighed in frustration. "Listen to yourselves! Do you not understand what's happening! We need to fix this!"

Eddie got out of his seat. "There's no point in fixing what's already broken." He said as he walked away.

Both Brandon and Simone tried to get up, but I grabbed both of their arms in an effort to get them to sit down. "I'll talk to Eddie but I'm sorry to both of you. It wasn't my place to judge you guys. So I apologize. I know you guys aren't talking or something, but you should know that you two are meant to be together. Can you guys at least try to work things out? Or at least be friends?" They just looked at me. "I'm not leaving until you do." They sighed and nodded their heads. "Good. I'm going to go talk to Eddie. You two be nice." I walked off to go find Eddie.

Luke's POV

"Nina you have to wake up. Your like my little sister and I love you. It's no fun seeing you like this. Things are even worse. I sent everyone out of the room so that they could go fight somewhere else. You don't need that while you're trying to get better. Just please get better soon."

Alexandria's POV

I ran after Eddie as he walked down the hall. "Eddie! Eddie wait."

He turned around answered me with an agitated tone. "What?"

My face changed into anger. "Don't use that tone with me. If you want to be pissed with anyone, be pissed with yourself." He tried to walk away from me again, but I grabbed onto his arm. "Just think about when Nina wakes up, we'll be able to tell her what we did, and how we fixed things. Then maybe, just maybe. Things will be how they were again. Just think about it Eddie."

All he needs to do is think.

Brandon and Simone's conversation will be in the next chapter, and you'll see the Anubis kids reaction to finding about Nina in the next chapter!
