A/N: I've decided to tweak the chapter a bit and add more stuff to it. So enjoy, and thanks so much for reading. I love you all to bits.


Chapter 4: An Unfinished Rivalry

4 hours later…

It was 9:00 now. Zoey, Nicole and Dana woke up and felt different. Like something was missing. Not on the outside, but on the inside. It felt awkward. Nicole felt weird like half of her personality was gone. Dana felt awkward as well. For some reason she couldn't yell at Nicole or be sarcastic and bitchy to Zoey. Dana felt like being nice for once, and wasn't up for biting Logan's head off whenever he wanted a make-out session. She was the first to get out of bed.

"Nicole, Zoey. Get up," Dana said, sleepily.

"What's up?" Zoey asked as she rubbed her eyes. Nicole began to stir and woke up too, and rubbed her eyes as well.

"Morning."

"We have an hour to meet the guys for breakfast," Dana simply stated. It surprised her that no sarcastic remark followed.

Immediately, Zoey and Nicole hopped out of bed. Dana, Nicole and Zoey all brushed their teeth and showered Nicole was sure something was up because she went to bed and woke up almost a different person. She finished blow-drying her hair and she was how picking an outfit to wear. For some reason, she felt like going all white today. Yeah, she'd go all white. Zoey, too, finished showering. She had a hunch of burning inside of her. Why did she feel this way? Was it ever going to fixed? Why did Zoey feel there was a bad presence? She slightly cringed. Today, she felt like wearing all shades of blue. Dana woke up unusually was quiet cheery and as someone had taken her essence away. She was quiet all morning and didn't threaten to kill/maim Nicole in any way. This new revelation was starting to freak her out and Dana decided she'd go black today. She still loved the colours black and red. They put on their make-up and lip-gloss and they were ready to go. The girls assembled by the full-length mirror for a final check.

As they were leaving to meet Chase, Logan, and Michael, the girls couldn't help but let their minds wander.

Zoey's outfit consisted of a baby blue top with a big yellow face smiley face on it. She had a denim skirt and for footwear, Zoey put on flip-flops, blue ones, of course. For accessories, she had a sapphire necklace and baby blue hooped earrings. Nicole wore a white tank top that said 'Angel' in glittery silver letters and wore silver mini skirt which sparkled when the sunlight hit it at the right angle. She wore silver hoops in her hoops in her ears. Nicole finished the ensemble with a pair of white sandals. Dana had a black top that said 'I Like To Make Them Cry' in red letters and wore black caprices. They had a silver chain hanging on the side of the belt loop, and she put on the belt clip that fit perfectly in the front. The word 'SEXY' was in capital letters and shined. Logan would have a fit. So would Chase and Michael. Mascara, eyeliner, and some strawberry-flavoured lip gloss completed their mirror check and they were out the door. Zoey broke the silence after walking in silence for a while.

Zoey said kind of worried, "You guys realize it's been quiet all morning?"

"Yeah, I'm scared. Dana hasn't yelled at me or tried to hurt me. Even when I tried to use my blow dryer, she didn't hurt me. Zoeey! I'm scared!"

"For once, I'll agree. I'm surprisingly cheery and I haven't yelled once and it's scaring me too."

Zoey came to the conclusion that something was terribly wrong. "Ok, something's up. Let's go find the guys."


Chase, Michael and Logan got up an hour earlier and got dressed and were already waiting for the girls to show up. Chase felt like something had been sucked out of him. Why did he feel like there was something hovering around him? He stared and sighed as his hands glowed green. For a brief moment. Logan felt different. Like he didn't feel like getting on everyone's nerves. He saw two hot girls walk up to him. They fawned over him as usual but he didn't flirt back. It's like he didn't want to but he just didn't feel like flirting (A/N: I know this is very un-Logan, but there's a reason...in the next chapter). Michael didn't feel like eating potato chips and they tasted weird to him. Chase felt like wearing earthy tones. He had a green shirt, khaki shorts and green and white K-Swiss shoes. Logan felt in a reddish mood so he wore a black shirt. Over the black shirt, he wore a red shirt with flames along the bottom. He had black washed jeans. He accessorized with a belt clip on the front of his pants, just like Dana's, only his belt clip was personalized and his name 'LOGAN' in shiny letters too. Logan finished his ensemble with red and black Air Jordans. Michael felt sporty, so he wore an L.A Lakers jersey. Number 8. Kobe O'Bryant's number and also wore blue baggy jeans. For shoes, he had white and gold Air Forces.

"Dude, I feel like something is missing. Something on the inside," Chase sighed, trying to comprehend every thing that happened the night before.

"I've lost my ability to flirt. What will happen if I can't flirt?" Logan asked, his voice volume getting louder with every syllable.

"The world will end, man. Without out your flirting, the world will be sucked into an eternal hell," Michael replied, with sarcasm.

"Very funny. In fact, it's so funny, I forgot to laugh."

Chase laughed at the two friends about to argue and then processed everything that had gone on in the last couple hours, "Michael, Logan's right."

Michael looked at Chase like he was crazy, "Dude, what are you talking about?"

Logan sneered, "What? Can't handle me being right now?"

Chase rolled his eyes and explained, paying no attention to the comment Logan had just made, "Mike, he's right for once. He hasn't gotten on my nerves or flirted. And there were two of them! I feel a bit off myself and don't your potato chips taste weird to you?"

"Yeah, man. It's as if half of me is gone," Michael agreed, after pausing to think.

"Me too," Chase agreed, nodding

"Yeah, same here," Logan sighed.

There was silent until three figures caught Chase's eye. Oh, it was just the girls… wait, what? Chase had to do a double take just to see if it was really them.

"Holy freaking God…" Chase muttered. His jaw dropped.

Michael and Logan stood up and wondered why Chase stopped in mid-sentence. They also turned and soon all three were in a trance-like state. Zoey and her friends glowed as they walked. They were sexier than usual, and their hips swayed as they walked.

Ok, breathe in, breathe out. Just breathe, Matthews. Oh, God. Zoey's hotter than usual. All I have to do is breathe and I won't pass out. Okay, Matthews. Relax.

Logan smirked, eyeing Dana up and down, hungrily. I hit the jackpot! Dana Cruz is sexy and soon she'll be mine. All mine. Just play it cool, Reese.

Nicole...she's so shiny. She's...beautiful. Please God, I know I don't go to church every Sunday, but please make Nicole like me back.

Zoey, Nicole and Dana walked up to the boys and Chase, Michael and Logan snapped out of their euphoric trances. They all said their 'hi's' and 'what's up's' and soon they were eating breakfast together. They sat in the following order: Logan, Chase, Michael, Dana, Zoey and Nicole. Nicole happily ate her salad and it was eerily quiet. Nicole decided to say something because it wasn't in her nature to be quiet, although today she was eerily silent.

"You guys. I'm scared. I haven't said a word all morning. Dana has tried to hit me and she's all happy. Zoey has been all quiet-like...being all un-Zoey-like," Nicole chirped up, as her voice cut through the quad.

Dana nodded, "She's right for once. I haven't hurt Nicole and I haven't made one sarcastic remark to Zoey." This day is even more messed up than I thought. Since when do I agree with Nicole for anything?

"Yeah, Dana has been so nice…and it's creepy. Nicole's right, though. I woke up and I didn't feel myself," said Zoey with a sigh. "You realize it'll take us a while to get used to these powers, right?"

"Yeah, but I'm not complaining… controlling fire's pretty nice," Logan answered, with a small smirk. "…but seriously, you woke up this morning and felt off?"

"Yeah, the same thing happened to us. Like something was pulled away from us."

It was quiet until Michael spoke up. He hadn't realized how quiet it was, until now. On a usual day, there were students walking around and doing their own thing? Why was this morning different?

"Umm, I have two questions. One, have you noticed the cafeteria and the rest of PCA is a ghost town? Two, why hasn't Logan asked Dana to make out with him?"

"Oh my God. He's right. There's no one here," gasped Zoey.

"And Logan has been bearable," Chase added. What is going on?

"I know, I should be asking Dana to make out with me but something's wrong."

"I should've kicked your ass by now," muttered Dana, more to herself. I swear if I find out who did this, they'll wish they were never born.

"See, this is totally whacked out right now!" Michael yelled, exasperated. He was annoyed by this time. All he wanted to do was hang out in his dorm, eating potato chips and beating Logan at Halo 2… only because he knew he could.

"Ohmigosh, what do we do because I don't like being scared and I like being happy and right now, I'm not happy. Being freaked out is so—" Nicole would've kept going but was cut off by Dana's hand being clamped over her mouth.

"It's too early for this, seriously…"

Dana removed her hand for Nicole's mouth. When Nicole was about to speak, she was cut off by Michael, who gave her a re-assuring smile so she wasn't mad.

"Nicole, relax."

Nicole nodded and smiled back… praying to God she wasn't blushing like a tomato at that moment.

"Ok, listen up guys…and girls. Half of ourselves is missing. Zoey and I feel kinda off. Logan can't be a playboy. Michael's taste buds react weirdly to potato chips because usually he can't be separated from them. Nicole can't be as talkative and usual and Dana can't be dark and evil as usual," Chase explained, but was slightly by the glare Dana was giving him. "…which is a normal thing for us."

"Good save, Chase," she replied with a small smirk and lazily draped an arm around him. Chase didn't mind because they were really cool friends. Dana sighed, turning to her blonde roommate. "Zoey, what do you suggest we do then?"

"I think we—" and she trailed off, as Zoey felt something unexplainable surge through her body.

Just then, Chase and Zoey both zoned out. Zoey's body glowed blue, while Chase's glowed green. Pictures of Glenn flooded their heads. They saw him holding six balls, all glowing black…dripping with blood? What were they for? They know had their culprit but where was he has he hiding? Both Zoey and Chase were then sucked back to reality, and both were red-faced and breathing heavily. Michael, Logan, Dana and Nicole were confused.

Chase and Zoey turned to face each other before meeting Logan, Dana, Michael and Nicole's confused stares.

"Did you see what I saw, Zo?" Chase asked, as a look of pure confusion dawned on him.

Zoey nodded yes, and looked at Chase with worried eyes, "Yeah, how did that happen?"

"I have no idea. What were the balls for? They were all black and were glowing…and I think they were bloody."

"Yeah, I'm kinda scared," replied Zoey with a slight nod of her head.

"Dude, why did you and Zoey space out like that?" Michael asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well, start talking because this day is boring without Dana and me always bickering," said Logan in a bored tone. It was better if he just slept this whole thing off.

"I can't believe I'm saying this," Dana sighed. "I agree."

Zoey sighed and came to a shocking conclusion, "Chase and I know why we've been feeling strangely all morning."

"The only person who can make me fly off the handle: Glenn Davis," Chase said, with a hint of bitterness in his voice. When I catch this guy, I will skin him alive…and he'll never be able to hurt Zoey again.

"That son of a bitch!" Logan yelled, as his face was contorted into a look of pure rage. Dana also followed suit in Logan's anger.

"He's such a bastard!"

Nicole could only let tears roll down her face. Michael put a supportive arm around her and wiped her tears away. Nicole smiled as if to say 'Thank you' and Michael nodded and smiled back.

"He is screwed when I'm fixed and I get my hands on him," Michael vowed through clenched teeth. I'll make Glenn swallow his teeth before I see Nicole cry.

Michael was so mad that his hands were sparking and glowing yellow. Chase had to move away in fear of getting electrocuted.

"Okay Michael, you need to relax. We all get you, but seriously calm down before you fry someone… that someone being me!"

"No! He took away my chips. You don't ever separate a man and his chips. I'm gonna shock him silly!" yelled Michael, as his hands continued to surge with sparks.

"Get in line. Not if I barbeque him first," Logan said, as he clenched his hands into fists.

"Everybody listen. As much as I like thinking up ways to cause Glenn a slow and painful death, we need to find Glenn's location."

"We can't go all over PCA. It's too big," Zoey pointed out. Her voice echoing proved her point. Chase spoke up, after he had just done some quick thinking.

"You know don't know have to, right? Everyone join hands."

Everyone groaned. Zoey rolled her eyes at her friends' laziness and put her hands on her hips.

"Come on. It's now or never."

Everybody nodded, and got up from their spot on the table, much to their own discomfort. Soon they all stood in a circle, alternating in gender. The whole group closed their eyes and allowed their element to work. As Quinn to put it, they would have to "unlock the element inside". Soon there were 6 students, glowing quite brightly.

Soon the winds (thanks to Nicole) got too powerful and energy was strong surrounding them, everybody pulled away from each other. The glowing subsided and Logan was the first to speak up. He saw where Glenn was.

"He's in the lounge. Just don't ask me how I know. I know he's there. I saw him, and I can feel him. Here's what we'll do."

Chase shrugged mainly because he had run out of ideas, "Ok, the ball is in your court."

"Nicole and Dana look for him from a bird's eye view," Logan instructed. Nicole had a confused look on her face. Logan smacked his forehead and broke it down, like you would for first grader. "That means you and Dana fly up. You know, where the sky is?"

"Oh. Ok," Nicole agreed with an enthusiastic nod, and a wide grin.

Dana sighed, "Fine, whatever. Let's get this over with."

"Chase. You, Zoey and Michael go on foot. As I said before, head to the lounge first. He's there because I can sense him not too far from here," Logan finally explained. Zoey had a question however.

"Fine, but what will you do to look for Glenn."

"I'll go to Hell, and see if he's down there. It's worth a shot. Besides, it's faster down there. Everyone get it?"

They all nodded. They were all surprised that this rather awesome plan had come from Logan. The self-proclaimed jerk. Everyone looked at him funny, but left to do what Logan said.

Nicole glowed as her wings sprouted again and she flapped them, making her herself go higher. Dana made herself levitate and had to catch up with Nicole. Chase, Michael and Zoey ran in the direction of the lounge and soon Logan was left.

This had better work. So much for that tanning appointment at 3, he thought as he closed his eyes, trying to get his powers to work.

He concentrated on his element as hard as he could. Flames encircled Logan as he disappeared through the cement into the bowels of hell. Logan groaned and went on his search for Glenn. Logan ran through tunnel after tunnel until he landed at a vent. He didn't have the time to unscrew the vent. He decided to burn it off. Maybe that would speed up the process. He breathed in deeply, and a powerful stream of fire shoot out of Logan's hand and the metal vent covering fell off. Logan went in and started to crawl through it.

Davis better hopes I don't find him first.


Chase, Michael and Zoey got to the lounge first. It was eerily quiet. You can hear a pin drop. Five minutes later, Zoey heard flapping behind her and it didn't take a genius to realize it was Nicole. Nicole landed beside Zoey and Dana wasn't too far behind and soon, she landed too. Chase and Michael stopped looking for Glenn and walked up to the three girls in front of them.

"Did you guys find him?" Dana asked, agitated by this time.

"No," replied a slightly frustrated Chase. He ran a hand through his bush of hair.

"Damnit!" the Latin teen cursed. "This is getting frustrating, you know!"

Chase sighed, "I hear you there…"

Michael couldn't take the tension building up and decided to speak, "Well, did you see him from an aerial view?"

"What's an aerial view again?" Nicole questioned, innocently. Zoey explained to her once again.

"From the sky when you guys went flying."

"Oh. No, but I want whatever Glenn took out of us."

"We all do," Chase piped up, sounding frustrated and defeated all at once. Michael looked to his left and wondered why the ground was smoking upwards. Floors didn't smoke upwards, like that. Humans smoked, but not carpeted floors.

"Uh, any reason why there's smoke billowing from the ground?"

Dana shrugged like it was no big deal, "Oh. That. It's just Logan. I know because we're the only two people able to go to Hell and back literally."

CHASE: Oh, right. Darkness and Fire.

At that moment, Logan appeared in an eruption of flames and was with his friends. That trick took a lot out of him and he was genuinely tired. He caught his breath and spoke again.

"I'm back… did you miss me?"

"Nice short-cut… and uh, no," Chase answered, still frustrated. Logan glared.

"You try crawling through tunnels and fighting off hot she-devils. Usually, I'd flirt my way out but I can't, remember? I didn't even find the stupid guy. Before you tell me, my plan wasn't awesome; I suggest you shut it, Nature Boy!"

"Logan! Cool it. We're on all on edge here. Just because I can't hurt you or cause you physical pain, that doesn't mean I can't shut you up, so don't test me!" Dana yelled angrily. She didn't have the patience to deal with arguing teenage boys. At this point, she felt like slitting her wrists.

Logan obeyed only because he didn't want to be levitated again. He stubbornly crossed his arms. The six of them were about to spread out and go all over PCA when they startled by a voice. It sounded mocking and hateful. Chase and his friends turned to see Glenn Davis with an evil smirk, as if nothing was wrong.

"Well, well, well, it seems the whole gang is here…"

Logan got up, with rage in his eyes. This was the guy that made Zoey cry? Logan didn't like Zoey like that but any crying girl upset him, and Zoey was his friend on that of that. He was a jerk…but he was a gentleman. No real man ever made a lady cry. Not ever.

"You! I swear I'll kill you, and this time. No money involved!"

Logan started to go after Glenn but Chase and Michael held him back. He hated Glenn for what he did to Chase. Logan cared even though he wouldn't admit it. Chase whispered something in Logan's ear and let go. He relaxed a little but glared, sending daggers at Glenn.

"What do you want, Davis?" Chase asked, trying to keep his voice even. He wasn't working, and he wanted more than anything to douse Glenn in gas and have Logan set him on fire. If that didn't work, there was always acid. Good ol' acid.

"You have what I want," he sneered, looking at Zoey with a lustful glint in his eyes. "…but then again, I have something you want. No wait, need."

"I really don't have time for riddles. I have a tanning appointment at 3. Tell us what you took or I'll kick your ass all the way to Antarctica!" Logan shouted, pissed off. Now all of his plans were going down the drain because of Glenn Davis. Just great…

"And I'll help him. I hate you and what you did to Zoey. She didn't deserve that," said Chase bitterly. A powerful stream of water came whizzing past Chase and hit Glenn directly. The pressure of the water sent Glenn to the back of the lounge. Chase smiled.

There's only one person I know who can do that. Zoey.

Even though Glenn was drenched with water, he was able to smirk. Zoey stood on the other side of the lounge, glowing blue because of her rage. She was stupid to fall in love with a stupid jerk and sometimes wondered how she got herself in these situations. Zoey's brown eyes which were once filled with innocence and warmth were now filled with anger and hatred for the wet boy in front of her. Her voice was filled with so much venom and it surprised everyone, even Chase. Who knew Zoey had so much bitterness? Chase was amazed at how Zoey's temper could flare up with so much intensity. Now he REALLY wanted her to be his girlfriend.

"Hey Princess. Long time no talk. Patience is a virtue. You'll find out in due time. I know you'll still love me. No use denying it, sweetie," Glenn said to his ex, with an evil grin.

Zoey's rage got stronger and Glenn walked to her and stroked her rosy cheek. She looked at him with emotionless eyes, almost wishing he would die. Zoey found her voice again, only time it was filled with all the anger she could muster. She winced at his touch, back turned to him. Zoey felt Glenn stroking her blonde locks, almost trying to inhale her familiar scent. Zoey clenched her teeth in seething anger. Feeling Glenn's cold and filthy hands on her, Zoey snapped.

"DON'T FUCKING TOUCH ME!" she screeched, slapping him across the face with great force. A deafening smack was heard, and Glenn's head jerked to the side. Glenn regained his composure and a large red hand print was graced on his face. He was persistent however, and this made Chase sick to his stomach.

Glenn laughed, "You still love me, not Matthews. Nothing compares to what we had. He won't be able to top that."

Zoey growled and turned to face her ex, "Who the hell are you to tell me that? What we had was a lie. A façade! A fake! I'll never forgive you! You are a man-whore… and I hope you rot in hell!"

"Aww, you don't mean that… you love—" Glenn was cut off by a fist connecting with his jaw. Glenn looked at the source, and growled. "You'll pay for that, Barrett."

"I'm afraid the lady said no!" Michael said, as his hands were curled into fists. His brown eyes glimmering with rage. Michael gently pushed Zoey into Chase, receiving a grateful smile from his best friend. Michael nodded, and Zoey mouthed a 'thank you'.

"You better butt out, Michael. You wouldn't want to get hurt," Glenn said, dangerously low.

"Is that right?" Michael said coolly. He punched Glenn again. Glenn tried to punch him again but Michael ducked, kicking him into a nearby coffee table. Logan smirked, and high-fived Michael.

"Don't worry, Zo. I'll protect you. He won't hurt you ever again," Chase whispered, as he protectively wrapped his arms around her.

Zoey looked up to meet his eyes, "Thanks."

"You're all idiots! You can deny it all you like but I'm the one in your heart. Not him." Glenn laughed. Dana growled. Who the hell did this guy think he was?

"Ok, someone better hold me back… because someone's about to get hurt!"

Dana tried to go for Glenn, but was stopped by Logan grabbing her arms. Logan did that for two reasons… Glenn was dangerous, and even though Dana thought she could handle him… Chase was protecting Zoey, so Logan felt that he should protect Dana. Logan could be nice when he wanted to be… Chase didn't blame Dana for wanting to scratch Glenn's eyes out. She probably could since Dana had the longest set of nails, Chase had ever seen. He was also mad. Chase's blood began to boil as he too glowed a bright green. Chase's eyes flashed with a flicker of anger and soon he had rage to match the petite girl in his arms.

"Leave her alone before I have to seriously hurt you. Give us back what you took," demanded Chase in seething anger. Glenn glared at Chase, but this didn't scare him one bit, in fact, it made Chase more determined to make sure Glenn was dealt with and dealt with… properly.

"You may have won the battle, but you have you haven't won the war," Glenn sneered. "I'll be back, and I'll make sure you pay dearly. All of you."

"I'm shaking. I really am," retorted Logan, sarcastically.

Glenn laughed evilly as he disappeared in a grey puff of smoke. Everyone walked up to where Zoey and Chase were standing. Chase and Zoey were now facing each other. They locked eyes for a moment.

"You okay?" he asked, with concern showing in his green eyes.

Yeah, thanks Chase. You're the best," replied Zoey, jumping to hug him. "Thank you so much."

Chase returned the hug, while blushing slightly, "It was no problem at all."

Zoey was all he needed. Little did he know, she was thinking the same thing. Nicole hugged her friend, relieved. Logan, Michael and Dana were also glad to see their friend was okay too.

"Nice, slap. I can see I've taught you well, Grasshopper," Dana teased with a smirk.

Zoey laughed, "Thanks. I guess I just snapped. He hurt me so bad, but I always have to say a big thanks to Michael and Logan. I owe you guys a big one."

Zoey hugged Michael and then hugged Logan… who happily hugged her back.

"It was cool, Zoey. Anyone would have done it," Michael said, with a smile.

"See, I may be a jerk, but I do have a heart…"Logan replied, with a half-smile/half-smirk.

Nicole hugged Zoey again, and pulled away, "Glenn's a meanie. Whatever happened in the past is soo over."

"Thanks, Nic."

"Yeah, and we got your back so don't worry," Michael added after Nicole.

"I seriously don't know what I did to deserve you guys…" Zoey said, bewildered. What did I do to deserve them? We'll always be the original Stingray Six. Hmm, that's catchy. "Hey, you know what I decided to name our group?"

"What?" Nicole asked, curiously.

"The Stingray Six," answered Zoey with a big grin. Chase thought about it.

"That's catchy…I like it. What about you guys?"

"I'm cool with it…"

"Me too!" chirped Nicole.

"That's hot…" Logan nodded, with a smirk. Dana rolled her eyes, and she hid her smile and laughter.

Even Dana liked it, so it settled. They were officially the Stingray Six. It seemed like a happy ending.

Just then, the lounge shook like an earthquake. The lights flickered on and off. Chase and Zoey held each other again, silently hoping they weren't going to die. Nicole squealed and clutched on to Michael, fearing it was over. Dana and Logan didn't have the time to be sour with each other, and their feelings took over. Dana said something only Logan could hear.

"Hold me tighter, Logan. Please!"

He could hear the fear and desperation in her voice. Logan's heart beat faster. He was just as scared as Dana was. It surprised him to hear how Dana could sound so scared when she usually acted like she had everything under control… then again, he was no exception.

"It's ok, Dana. I got you. I won't let anything happen to you. I swear!" Logan reassured, holding her protectively in his arms. Then the lounge went black. Plunging into darkness. They screamed. A surprise was waiting in store for them. And they wouldn't like it one bit.


A/N: There's Chapter 4. It's still the same but I added stuff to it. Hope you like. Tell me in a review or PM.
