Zack limped into his and Cody's bedroom and plopped onto his bed.He stared up at the ceiling,pure horror spread across his face.

'Hey fatty.You gonna lose some weight so you can actually run from me?'

Ian's voice still rang in his ears.Why did he have to cross paths with them on the way home?

He pushed himself off of his bed and lifted his shirt,standing in front of the full-lenght mirror that had recently been added to their bedroom.Grimacing to himself,he slowly pulled his shirt back down.

Truthfully,Zack wasn't much bigger than Cody was.But he still couldn't compete with Cody's healthy and in-shape body.

'When did this happen?' Zack thought to himself as he plopped back onto his bed miserabley. 'How long have I been like this?'

Zack shuddered,positively disgusted with himself. "I'm so fat!" he whispered in horror.

'I'm not ready for these thoughts...' Zack thought,covering his ears with his hands. 'These thoughts combining with the thoughts of mom...nothing good can come out of it!'

He turned over on his bed and started to gently pound his fist on the soft comforter.He gasped and lifted his head.A horrible thought had just floated into his head,and no matter how hard he tried,he couldn't get rid of it.

He had heard that cutting yourself really did help the depression...

Blindly,Zack pushed himself up from his bed and made his way across the room,opening and shutting the door behind him.He calmly turned the doorknob of Ian's bedroom door,not caring if Ian was in there or not.

Ian's Point of View

I looked up from my drawing to see Zack standing in my doorway.

"In need of another beating?" I mocked him,glaring at him in an attempt to scare him off.Truthfully,I didn't feel like pounding him right then.

"No." he whispered. "I need one of your razors."

At first,my mind went kind of numb.Why would he even need one? But comprehension soon filled my mind,and a grim smirk crossed my face.So...he wanted to cut too?

"And what do you need one of those little things for?" I mocked in a small voice,tilting my head to one side.I found his desperateness very amusing.

"You know very well why." he hissed at me,looking down at the floor.

I saw him put his hand up to his head,placing his other hand on the door.He wobbled a bit before falling to his knees.I heard his breathing go ragged,and he looked up at me with pure horror filling his eyes.

"Abel Frye!" he screamed,totally collapsing onto the floor.He covered his eyes with his hands and shut his eyes tight.He started to slowly shake his head,as if he was trying to make something stop.

He looked back up at me with pleading eyes,but all he could do was scream Abel Frye's name.

The grin on my face dissapeared as I saw Cody walk down the hallway,and stop at my door.

Zack's Point of View

The room started to spin before me,and I felt myself fall to the floor.

I looked up into Ian's eyes,but immediately wished that I hadn't.Looking down at me was a white-black image of a demonic face looming above me.Its eyes were black and bottomless.Its pshycotic grin showed rows of long,sharp teeth.

And a noose hung around its neck,causing it's head to tilt to the side.

"Abel Frye!" I screamed.But...why did I scream that? Some girls had told me the rumors of Abel Frye earlier that day,but I didn't believe them.Why scream Abel Frye's name in this situation?

I continued to scream Abel Frye's name until I heard Cody walk up to the doorway.

Then...I started laughing.I started rolling on the floor,clutching my splitting sides.I pushed myself up from the floor and wiped hot tears from my eyes.

"Pretty good joke,huh Ian?" I laughed,trying to regain my just looked at me,then at Ian,and then back at me.It was obvious how confused he was.

Ian's mouth kind of dropped open,but I saw it close while an angry expression lifted onto his face.

"Yeah.Some girls told me how you're rumored to be 'making all the calls' when it comes to Abel Frye's killing." I mocked,clicking my tongue.It was funny to see Ian's face go to amused to dissapointed. "Seems like you've been doing just a bit too much killing.

I found the 50 dollar bill wedged inside my locker door,along with the straw taped to the roof of my locker.Lovely little spider,by the way.

I'm guessing that you laced the 50 dollar bill with pharamones.Then,all you had to deal with was the straw.You plugged up one side of the straw with sugar,and then you placed a small spider inside of the straw.Then,you plugged up the other side of the straw.The spider was supposed to eat it's way out of the straw,and go looking for me,since I had the scent of the 50 dollar bill on me.

Was the spider supposed to...bite me,Ian? Was it supposed to make me hallucinate by making me think that I was seeing Abel Frye's demon?

You did a good job,but not nearly good enough for the Zack Attack."

A smirk crossed my face as I crossed my arms over my chest. 'Note to self:thank Rikku for warning me about Ian.' I thought to myself.

Ian growled as he got up from his bed and pushed me out of his bedroom.My back slammed against the hallway wall,causing several picture frames to shudder.He slammed shut the door as I looked over at Cody.

"What in the world was that about?" he asked me,his eyebrows furrowed.

"Just a little revenge." I shrugged,walking into our bedroom.

I sighed as I walked over to my bed and plopped onto it,like I had done many times before.

'I'm not gonna cut myself.I'm way too squirmish when it comes to blood.' I thought grimly. 'But I need to think of a quick way to lose weight...'


Ooh.Dun dun dun.Lol.So I finally explained what the money,spiders,and straw had in common.Please tell me if it was too confusing.

I hoped you liked this chapter.I was hoping that I left you with a bit of a cliffhanger.

Please review.I haven't been getting many,but the few that I do get inspire me to write more. :D Thanks!
