Hi, so I'm back. I've finally managed to finish my story "One of them" and this will serve as a sequel story to it. So, this story will take place a few years later. Maybe I will write another sequel story, but for now, I haven't figured everything out. Oh, and please read the first story "One of Them" before reading this story. Even if you have read it, please read it again, there are some changes made to it. And for good measurement, a lot of things that happened in the show didn't happen here in this story simply because it wouldn't fit in with the story. There have been some good suggestions I got from the last chapter of the last story and I will see if I can use them in this story.

Chapter 1: Flash forward

Several years had passed since Spinelli joined the Ashleys. She was now in her sophomore year of high school and to the outside world, her life was perfect. She lived in a big house, had two adoring parents, a great boyfriend and four amazing friends. What more could a girl want? Even her extracurricular activities were great. Before, she was taking both ballet and horseback riding classes, but naturally, she had to follow her fellow Ashleys and only take horseback riding. With ballet removed from her schedule, she had extra time for training which allowed her to catch up to the other Ashleys. She would often compete in competitions and win. Her riding outfit would always consist of a white shirt, black jacket, brown pants, black boots and a black riding helmet.

Now, you can't forget about beauty pageants either. Every year, she and her fellow Ashleys would enter numerous contests, and usually Spinelli would win them.

After elementary school, she and her fellow Ashleys were all enrolled in private school. They attended the same school as David. Naturally, no one was surprised when they started dating. It made total sense; after all their parents were in business together and every summer break their families would go away on vacation together.

Although she was dating David, she did find him to be a bore. He could also be mean to other people, but he was always sweet to her. None of that mattered to Spinelli though. She didn't care what he was like as a person. He was cute and rich, that's enough for her. Some might consider her to be a snob, but she had learned that she was better than others due to her first name being Ashley.

Spinelli herself had grown up to be quite pretty. Although she wasn't very tall, she had a nice olive complexion and straight raven black hair that went down just below her shoulders. She would always style her hair with her signature red headband.

As the years went by, Spinelli became more and more concerned with her looks. She was always exercising and watching her diet. She hadn't eaten cake or junk food since she was nine years old. As an Ashley, she had to look perfect.

Every day she would look at her necklace with a crystalized "A" on it, and she would be reminded of her life as an Ashley. This is who she was. It was her destiny and she knew that. She didn't question it. She never questioned being an Ashley. She believed herself and her fellow Ashleys to be perfect. They were above the poor and common folk.

When it came to her parents, her dad's business had really taken off. He also became quite good at golfing and networking. The family business was doing great, but Spinelli knew that it really helped her father out that she was dating David. It provided her father with more opportunities to work with David's father. Her relationship with her Mom was also great. They got along a lot better now and could spend hours talking and shopping together. Concerning her brothers, she hadn't seen them in the years. But she didn't care. She had bigger things to concern herself over.

Every year she would celebrate purple day alongside her fellow Ashleys. It was an important day for them as it marked as the anniversary of when the Ashley clique was founded. Spinelli herself didn't remember much of the day. She only knew it was how the five of them became best friends. The other Ashleys had told her that. She never questioned them. They were her best friends and they knew what was best for her.

She truly couldn't remember much of her life after the fourth grade. All she knew is that she's always been an Ashley and always will be. She kept reminding herself that because her best friends kept telling her that. Her best friends also told her the reason she couldn't remember is that she suffered a terrible accident in the fourth grade that caused her to suffer from amnesia. It's the reason she couldn't remember anything, but it's not like she needed to remember anything. She's an Ashley, a total girly girl who loves gossiping, fashion and going to the spa. She would always be a member of their clique. Her best friends had always been there for her. They were super honest and supportive. They were the best friends a girl could ask for. She saw no reason to doubt them. She believed anything they would tell her; after all, her own best friends wouldn't lie to her, right?

Meanwhile, the other Ashleys were continually lying and manipulating Spinelli. Each of them thought it was perfect how they had managed to change Spinelli into Ashley S all those years ago. They made her into a perfect Ashley clone without her even realizing it. She believed the amnesia excuse without hesitation. She had to keep thinking that way. It was for the best, after all. They couldn't have that disgusting tomboy returning and ruining all their hard work. They only wanted the very best for her and would always support her and she believed them. It was perfect and she was perfect, just like them, nothing could go wrong.

Of course, what none of the five Ashleys knew was that T.J and his parents had just moved back to their old house. Over the years, T.J and the rest of the gang had tried to keep in touch but ultimately found it to be too difficult. T.J. had also changed, but not for the better. He became somewhat of a loner and eventually had gotten expelled from his previous school. His parents thought that moving back to Third Street might help T.J. straighten himself out. Maybe he might even reunite with his old friends? His parents were hopeful of the situation.

Next chapter: probably an attempted visit or a confrontation

So, that's it for chapter 1, I decided that this chapter would focus on Spinelli and where she would be years later, and the other Ashley, and where T.J would be. He's going to pop up again later on in this story.

Please R/R and let me know what you think.

I don't own Recess or its characters, just my oc's.

Thanks to my beta reader SheikahLover for editing the chapter.
