Thank you for the reviews. dark destiny 2000 or whatever im sry... 2 lazy to check the real thing when i do a pain scene, i practically kill the character. I killed jake baker in one of my stories, so I'm sorry, I can't do what you want not to hurt Seth too badly. Luckily for you, this chapter isn't it. This chapter is kind of short. I tried to post it, but this morning the server wasn't working. So here it is.

The next day was just the same. The kids were late. Again.

Mr. Murney was getting angry. He had Seth and Zoe sit in his office, where he bawled at them for about an hour, until Principal Fletcher-Wolfe came in and broke it up.

Lulu sat alone eating lunch that day; nobody sat near her. She just thought about Alyssa, and wanted to cry. Luckily, Zoe saw her and sat down next to her.

"Where's your lunch?" Lulu asked her older sister.

"Um," Zoe said, looking uncomfortable. "I ate it already."

This wasn't true; Zoe hadn't eaten anything since breakfast the last day.

"Oh," said Lulu, and went on eating her own sandwich.

"So," Zoe asked. "Where's Alyssa?"

"She's being mean," was Lulu's quiet reply.

"Why?" Zoe inquired.

"Ok," Lulu took a deep breath. "We had a test and Alyssa cheated on it and I got the blame and now I have detention and she doesn't want me to tell on her because then she won't be my friend and…"

"Ok," Zoe said. "Take a deep breath. Why don't you just tell the teacher, because it's not fair that you get the blame for something she did."

"But then she won't be my friend anymore," Lulu said sadly, her eyes starting to water. "And I only have one best friend."

Zoe was about to say something, but she realized she couldn't. Zoe was popular. She had all the friends; she didn't know what her sister was feeling. She didn't know what Seth was feeling either, with no friends whatsoever. Lulu had had more friends before, Zoe knew that, but they had all seemed to vanish once Lulu demonstrated her kung-fu powers on one of them. Zoe just put her arm around Lulu, and quietly sat there.

Seth saw Zoe throw away her lunch, again. Then he saw her go sit with Lulu. When she came back, he looked her in the eye and said, "Zoe. You better eat."

"What do you mean?" she asked. "I did eat my lunch."

"No you didn't," he retorted. "I saw you throw it away."

Zoe faltered for a moment, and then answered, "No! I did eat it. I just threw away… my friend's lunch."

"Oh yeah?" said Seth sarcastically. "Why does it say 'Zoe' on it then?"

Zoe hesitated. Then angrily she yelped, "Just leave me alone Seth! I'll be okay! I'm not going to be bulimic or anything! Why do you care anyway? People are right about you; you are to sensitive! You are creepy! Why don't you just leave me alone?"

She ran off. Little did she know how wrong she was.

Seth looked after her. He felt like he had been slapped. How could she say that to him? He loved her. She was his role model, everything he wanted to be. And then she had pushed him away, just like that.

He looked after her and for the second time that week, walked off to be by himself, and cried again. Cried for her. Cried for himself. But most of all, cried for his dad.

Peter looked behind him. All those kids were so scary. He missed Seth, where was he? Seth would hold him everyday, and hug him, and tell him he was the greatest brother ever. Seth even did the Peter Panda Dance for him when Mom was too tired. Peter loved Seth. But where did Seth go everyday? Not to a place like this, he hoped.

One of the kids, a blond boy, stepped up to him. "Boo!"

Peter screamed. He hid behind the couch in the room.

Looking straight forward, he saw another kid, his eyes glowing through the darkness.

ooo... creepy. I'm having a writer's block right now. I'll update when I can. Hehe, there's my sibling hate scene. I practically always write those. Ooh, in the CBTD fanfic, there's a big sibling hate thing going in on there... 11 vs. 1... lol

So, please review. It helps me... have inspiration
