Chapter One: Rejuvenation

It has been one year since Brianna passed away. Squid was now eighteen. He was still hurting from her being gone, but he had gotten over it. He still loved her but accepted she was finally gone. He understood she was gone. He knew she was gone. He loved her, yes, but she was no longer walking on this earth. He finally knew she was gone.

It was the middle of the night and Squid was in his bed asleep. His mother wasn't home yet from her seminar, which seemed a little unusual. Squid was asleep in his bed when out of nowhere he heard a noise from outside. It jarred him awake. He slowly climbed out of his bed and went over to his window. He opened it and looked down. Nothing was there. He shrugged, shut his window and then climbed back into his bed and fell asleep.

Tap tap tap!

There it was again! It was growing irritating. Squid put his pillow over his head and decided to ignore the noise from outside. He wanted the noise to stop until…

"HEY!"

Squid fell out of his bed and looked around. Was someone trying to break into his house? "Naw," he whispered into the silence of his room. He went back to sleep.

Meanwhile outside a dark shadow was outside jumping up and down outside of his window. It was waving their arms in the air. The person finally got very frustrated and looked around them. They walked over to the drainpipe and shimmed up it to Squid's window. When they had reached it the person pulled out a lock pick and started to fiddle with the lock. "Damn!" they whispered. They pushed up on the window. "Dur! It was open!" the person muttered. They opened the window and climbed into Squid's room. They fell onto the floor with a thud.

The person winced hoping Squid didn't get up. He was asleep. "So cute," the person whispered almost overtaken by cuteness. They slowly walked toward Squid's sleeping body and gently shook him. He didn't wake. The person shook him this time a little more aggressively. He still didn't get up. "Squid! Get up!" they commanded.

He slowly got up and looked around and saw the shadow. "WHOA! WHO'RE YOU GET OUT!" Squid shouted looking outraged. The person took a step back. "Show yerself! Who are ya?" he asked again trying to calm himself down. He was now out of his bed near his door ready to run for a gun at any given moment. Squid felt around for his light switch and quickly flipped it on. The person slowly stepped into the light.

It was a girl. She had dark brunette hair that looked dirty. She had ivory colored skin though it seemed like there was dirt on her face and arms. Her cloths were ripped. She had knee ripped bell-bottom jeans and a shirt with a rip at the bottom. Her shirt read, 'Leader' and the red color looked considerably faded. Then her eyes. Her eyes looked so familiar as if Squid had seen them before. Her eyes were the only things that didn't look like she had been through a rough time. She had dark emerald almond-shaped eyes. They looked like…

Brianna.

"NO! You're dead! I saw you!" he shouted.

"Dead? Me? Ha! There's a laugh," giggled the girl.

"You can't be Brianna. She's dead and buried!" exclaimed Squid looking frantic. He slowly moved toward his bed and grabbed a baseball bat.

"WHOA! Don't do that-!" she shouted before he swung at her. She easily ducked. "Damn! What the hell didya do that for!" He swung again and missed her. This time he hit his dresser. "WILL YA STOP!" she growled grabbing the bat and snatching it out of his hands. "Please lemme explain!" she whimpered o him.

"Fine!" he growled in a frustrated voice. He sat on his bed and looked at her. "I still don't believe yer Bri! She's dead! DEAD! D-E-A-D! Dead!" he said determined to show this girl that he wasn't stupid enough to fall for this trick. She sighed and sat down next to him. She looked into his brown eyes with her emerald ones.

"It is me. It's me Brianna! C'mon! Ya gotta believe me. I know stuff about you that only I would know-!"

"Then what was Brianna sent to Camp Green Lake for?!"

"Me and my gang were blamed for the JCP Plan. We weren't apart of it. It was the Scorpions who came with that plan." Answered the girl with a sense of cockiness. Squid snorted.

"Then what was my nickname?"

"Squid!"

"Easy question."

"Uh huh sure," she mumbled with anger. Squid stared at her.

"Then what was her nickname?" he asked her. He smirked at her with a cocky attitude.

"Charm, stupid," she giggled. "And my gang was called the Strips. My gang members' names' were: Kayla, Shaily, Susan, Marla, and Michelle… And formerly before she died, Mel. The D-Tent boys' names' were: Caveman, X-Ray, Squid, Armpit, Magnet, Zero, and Zig Zag. My former boyfriend's name was Marcus "Mad Dog" Sheldon the leader of the Scorpions. What else would you like to know to PROVE that I AM Brianna Lyn Barlow-Synch!"

"What's my real name?" Squid asked smirking again.

"Alan," she answered firmly. He gapped at her.

"Brianna?" he said gapping.

"Hey Alan," she said smiling. She leaned into him and hugged him tightly. She realized he was shirtless as she hugged him. She went red. He still looked flabbergasted and reluctantly hugged her in return.

"Where have you been?!" asked Squid quickly pushing her away. Her bright smile quickly faded. She looked at the ground and sighed. "Where have ya been?" he asked again looking her in the face.

"I've been gone."

"Why?"

"Mad Dog."

"What?"

"I faked my death Squid," she said quickly afterwards.

"WHAT!?" gasped Squid looking flabbergasted again. "But-? Why?"

"I did it for you. Mad Dog still loves me so if he thought I was dead he would let me be. I could finally be happy with ya. It also was an idea the cops had. Yea I know. Me actually work with the cops is not exactly something I would normally do, but it did make sense. I explained to them that the Scorpions were going to have someone kill me if they couldn't themselves. We also decided to go after my dad for kidnapping charges. And I soon found out after I "died" that he was hired to kill me in exchange for some drug from the Scorpions," Brianna explained hoping Squid could understand this.

"Oh my God," he whispered looking like he was just slapped across the face.

"I know I know, but it was the only way to bust the Scorpions. I had to do it. I wanted to be with you and not worry about getting jumped in some dark alley," she said looking quite embarrassed by this. Squid's lips cracked into a smile and slowly he hugged her again.

"It's ok. It's ok," he murmured. He started to feel fresh tears roll down his skin from her. She had started to sob in his grip.

"I'm sorry. I should've told ya," she sobbed. He shook his head and kissed the top of her head gently.

"Naw," he said to her. "It's fine. I understand."

"Thanks."

"No problem. What's a boyfriend for anyway?" he said winking at her after she moved out of his grip. She giggled and kissed his cheek. He grinned, "Well anyway-?" he started to ask before…

"ALAN! I'M HOME! WHERE ARE YOU! C'MON DOWN!" called his mother. Squid went white with horror.

"I'M IN MY ROOM MOM! I'LL BE THERE IN A MINUTE!" he called after her.

"Well just hold on I'll just come up there!" she answered starting to walk up the stairs of their house.

"Shit!" murmured Squid to Brianna. "Ya gotta get out before my mom get up here!" She nodded quickly and went over to his window.

"Hey wait!" Brianna gasped.

"What?!" he hissed to her.

"Alan? Is there someone in your room?" asked his mother getting close to his door.

"NO!" Squid answered. He looked to Brianna and motioned her to get out of the room.

"Alan… Meet me here," she whispered as she scribbled down an address. "No one'll be there to interrupt us." He nodded and kissed cheek. "Bye!" she said as she shimmed down the drainpipe.

"ALAN! WHO'S IN THERE!" called his mother.

"NO ONE MOM!" he said to her.

"LET-ME-IN!"

"Fine! He shouted making sure Brianna was gone. He walked over to his door and unlocked it and then his mother came into the room.

"Now I guarantee ya I heard SOMEONE in here!"

"Mom no one was here! I promise you that," he muttered. She gave him a look of disbelief. "I'm not lieing mother! I swear!" he said quickly afterward. She looked at him again and shook her head.

"Well alright then, but if you had a girl in here because by God I heard one… You'll be grounded until ya dead!" she said calmly walking out of the room. She shut the door and went back downstairs. Squid sighed with relief and climbed back into his bed. He pulled the blanket back over him and went back to sleep. He smiled to himself.

"Brianna's back…" he whispered.

The next morning Squid was awoken by his mother knocking on the door. He shoot up in his bed and rubbed his head. What had happened last night? Brianna! "Oh God, that's right!" he said quickly looking at his hand. "I'm suppose to meet her today!" he said getting out of bed and getting fresh cloths on. He walked out of his room and slid down the banister of the staircase.

"Alan!" shrieked his mother.

"Oops sorry," he said quickly. He smiled and headed to the door.

"Where d'you think you are goin'?" his mother asked.

"I-I've gotta go meet someone!" he said not looking at his mother. She sighed and let him go. He ran out the door and went over to where he was going to meet Brianna. She wasn't there. He leaned against the wall and waited anxiously for her. It was about twenty minutes later before she finally arrived.

"Squid!" she said waving to him. When she got close enough to him, she gently embraced him. "Hey there! Didya get caught?"

"Naw," he said fiddling with the toothpick in his mouth.

"You still chew on that thing?!" she said blinking.

"Yea," he replied laughing. "Kinda my trademark if ya get it."

"Oh hilarious," she said flatly. She playfully slapped him. He kissed her forehead and looked down at her.

"Ok ok," he began. "Now what do ya gotta tell me."

"Well I was going to finish what we were discussing yesterday but I guess ya don't wanna hear it!" Brianna snapped. Squid gave her a smirk.

"Ok," Squid laughed. "Now what were we talking about now?" Brianna stared and sighed loudly.

"Well I explained everything that had happened to me except where the hell I've been this past year."

"Ah," he said. "Right. You can continue."

"Well you actually wanna know where I've been?"

"No and then Shaily and Zig Zag'll break up," Squid answered sarcastically. Brianna blinked.

"Shaily and Zig Zag are goin' out?" she asked. Squid nodded. "Oh my God! What else have I missed!"

"You've missed a lot. You really wanna know?" he asked and Brianna nodded eagerly. "Well, Marla's going with Zero, Kayla's with Caveman, Shaily's with Zig Zag, Susan's with Magnet, and Michelle's goin' with Twitch." Squid answered. She gapped at him. "I'm totally serious!"

"Ok I get that, but what the hell happened to Camp Green Lake?"

"It was shut down thanks to Caveman and Zero."

"Seriously?!"

"Yea," answered Squid. Brianna looked shocked. Squid was still chewing on this toothpick. Brianna rolled her eyes. "What!"

"Will you please take that outta yer mouth? PLEASE!" she whined.

"Take what out?" he asked her looking blank.

"Gah!" she shouted.

"What now?"

"That damn toothpick!"

"What about it?"

"It's so annoyin'!" she whined stamping her foot.

"Why?" he asked. She frowned slightly and hugged Squid. She started to cry.

"I-I missed you so much," she bawled. Squid looked taken aback by her emotions. He reluctantly put his arms around her and caressed her hair. He tried to calm her down. People walking by began to stare at him with dirty looks as if he caused her to cry.

"C'mon. Stop. I hate it when you cry," he whispered. She remained sobbing into his shoulder. Finally after a few more minutes she stopped crying and let him go. She looked him in the eyes. She smiled gently and pulled out his toothpick. "HEY! That's mine!" he griped. She giggled and leaned into him.

"Not anymore," she giggled. He reached to grab it from her but she pulled it away.

"Hey! Give it back!"

"Nope sorry."

"HEY! C'MON!" he shouted to her. She shook her head. "Ok ok! What do I gotta do to get it back?"

"Hmm." Brianna replied now fiddling with the toothpick in her own fingers. He gave her a grin and reached for his toothpick and Brianna pulled it away again. Squid reached again but fell into Brianna knocking her over and him landing on top of her. "Ow!" she yelped.

"Sorry," he murmured. "I just want my damn toothpick back!"

"No!" she giggled. He looked into her emerald eyes.

"Hey there. Now c'mon!" Squid whispered getting close to her face.

"Sorry can't hear you!"

"Hmph!"

"Stop your whining," she said before grabbing his shirt and pulling him down to her lips. She kissed him deeply before letting him go. She then shoved the toothpick back into his mouth.

"Oh funny! Really funny!"

"Hey now can I ask you something?"

"What?"

"Could you get off me?"

"Gladly," he answered helping her up and kissing her cheek again. "Now lemme ask something."

"Anything."

"When are you going to tell your gang?"

"I don't know."
