That night...

I was standing on the roof, looking out at the sky. The same questions kept going through my head;

How we're my parents alive still

And

Why did they leave me?

I sighed out loud.

I have a feeling that I'm never gonna find out...

So what happens next? Do I go on an adventure, get shot in the heart, and magically don't die? Or do my parents come save me from the Director, and then Brianna will be like "Naahhh! Why didn't she die?" and I'll be like "MUAHAHAH" and-

"Wow, you have so serious thoughts going on."

I jumped, and spun around, seeing Jayden standing at the door. The light breeze blew his hair a bit, so I could clearly see his face.

"Oh, I said that out loud?" I asked, as he walked over to me, and leaned against the railing. He looked at me with a smile. I knew I was blushing. Thank god it was dark, except for the stupid moon light shining on us.

"Yeah, thankfully you didn't spill any secrets about loving me," He smirked. I rolled my eyes, knowing I was blushing more.

"Right,"

"You know you love me!"

"Of course. I love Jayden Parker," I smiled and he looked away.

"Good," He looked back at me with a teasing grin. I smiled again and looked at the town. He looked over too.

"Pretty, right?" He wondered. I sighed and nodded. The way the moon shined on the town, with a sky full of endless stars made it look beautiful.

"No matter how dumpy or city like our town is... it looks like a reflection in a river. A sparkly, pretty river," I said softly, as I continued gazing out.

"Yeah," He breathed. He paused, and I glanced at him, wondering why he stopped talking. Then he started again. "So... about our ridiculous fight..."

I groaned, and put my head down, as I stared at my shoes. I really don't want to discuss this!

"I know you don't want to talk about it, but we have to at some point," He explained. I looked back up, and at the stars, trying to avoid eye contact.

"I know that... it's just, you know I hate talking about this stuff. Like having fights with people. I always feel like I'm gonna lose. And I know I do lose. I lose everything..." I paused.

"I lost my parents, all my family..." I said quietly, and slowly looked down at the town again. I felt his eyes on me so I turned my head a bit to him. He was looking at me.

"I don't want to make this dramatic or anything but Skylar... you'll never lose me. I'm your friend; I'll be there for you. No matter what. And I heard about your parents. They're still alive. I can help you," he said, stepping towards me. I stared up, into his blue ocean eyes.

"Are you sure?" I asked. He nodded and stared down at me.

"Yeah. I'm here for you Sky... I'm sorry about everything. Everything I said. I regret it and take it back. I'm going to help you find your parents. Even if it means to fight Alexa and Alex," He said calmly. I think he noticed the hurt go across my face at mentioning Alex and Alexa, so he pulled me into a hug. I wrapped my arms around his waist, being shorter than him.

"Promise?" I whispered into his chest. I felt him nod. Then everything went quiet. "You made it dramatic..." I muttered with a grin playing my lips. He laughed.

"I know. Sorry, I'm the drama type!" He said innocently, and we pulled away. I was sure I was blushing, and he smiled. I grinned and rolled my eyes.

"You're so weird," I laughed, and put my hands on the railing, looking out at the moon.

"Come on, you can't tell me you don't like the romantic side of Jayden!" He exclaimed, and put an arm around my shoulders. I chuckled and looked up at him. He was smiling proudly, looking out at the view.

I slapped his chest, and he looked down at me. "You like to pick on me, don't you?" I asked. He chuckled.

"Yep, you're like my little sister,"

"Well, keep it like that, alright?"

"No promises,"

I smiled and looked at the stars. Did he mean it? Did he mean he wasn't promising to keep our relationship like brother and sister? Why do I have this weird feeling? I don't like him okay?

It was the perfect time. The perfect moment, when the door burst open. We both jumped around, and saw Brianna standing in the doorway. Her eyes were wide, thinking she interrupted something.

"Uh..." she started.

"No worries, just... what's up?" I asked casually. She blinked a bit, and then came back.

"Good news. We're not staying here tonight," She instructed. I smiled and heard Jayden mutter a 'Yes...'

"But, we will come here in two days." She said. I groaned and Jayden's shoulder's slouched down, disappointed. "You may leave now," She then turned, and walked back in.

I sighed, and started walking to the door, with Jayden behind me. I reached for the door handle, and began pulling it, when a big hand got in the way and closed it. I turned and looked at Jayden with a confused expression.

"So, uh, I guess were in this together? To, you know, bring down Alex and Alexa?" He wondered. I nodded slowly.

"I guess..." I said. We grew silent, as an awkward silence passed over us. "So... I'll see yeah tomorrow?"

"Sure," He nodded and moved his hand. I opened the door, and traveled down the stairs, him behind me. I walked out the door at the bottom of the stairs and turned to him. I grinned a bit.

"Bye..." I said quietly.

"See yeah," He nodded at me. I walked away, back the way I came from. I turned, and waved a bit. He grinned and waved. I then turned back and made my way to the exit.

The next day...

I arrived at school, avoiding Josh, Alexa, and Alex. I didn't want to get caught talking to the bad guys.

And I don't want to see them because it hurts to know that they we're faking it the whole time.

Classes we're boring, but went by fast. Each one, I would just sit there, thinking about everything going on. It was Thursday, and by Saturday, I would be training to fight Alex and Alexa.

Or, as what Brianna calls Alex, Maine, and Alexa; York. As in New York. And Josh, who is North Dakota.

Apparently people call Alex AKA Maine "The Meta". No idea why.

Now, awhile back in grade 6, they said they we're both from here. So why does Brianna call them—

Oh. I get it now.

They lied to me!

*Cough* Again...

Shut up, anyways. Yeah, they're really from Maine and New York. I guess that's why everyone's agent name is where they're from. Like me, Agent Texas.

Ever since yesterday, when we left to the 'Laundry matt', Alex and Alexa had a reputation. It was no longer Brianna and her birds. Alex and Alexa we're the new bullies.

I guess they decided to show their true colors. Whatever, they're not my friends anymore.

It was finally lunch, and I walked into the cafeteria. I walked over, taking out 5 dollars to get ready to pay.

I got my lunch. An apple, a pudding cup, and a bowl of soup. I held my lunch tray, to hear the doors fly open. Everyone stopped talking and it drew quiet. I didn't have to turn to figure out who it was.

"Meta and..." I said out loud, fixing my glare on the glass in front of the fries. I turned around, holding my tray of food.

"York." I finished off.

"Ah, so you know, Skylar?" Alexa asked, smirking at me, with her arms crossed. She was at the other side of the cafeteria with Alex. The same look on his face.

I laughed. "Actually, it's Tex. Texas." I answered, and gave her an evil grin. She frowned at me. Probably because of how awesome my name was. But probably not...

"Shut up, Roberts." Alex growled, and they started making their way to me. Everyone was watching. Silence filled the room as I watched them approach me. Alexa laughed.

"She has no clue it was us, doesn't she?" Alexa asked, while smirking again. I got confused.

"No idea." Alex added, and glared at me. I thought I liked that kid? Pft.

What we're they talking about? It was them... it was them for what though?

Think, stupid. Where are you standing? What happened last week, exactly where you're standing?

Last week...

I turned, and walked into someone. Actually, it was more like they pushed me on the ground. My tray went flying, and just my luck, the yogurt landed on me.

I sat on the ground, on my butt, as everyone started laughing. I stared at the high heels that were in front of me. I looked up slowly, only to meet the face of Brianna.

Okay. Remembering Brianna pushed me, isn't going to help!

No! The paper! What she said you slipped on!

...Wait a second...

Earlier that morning, Alex and Alexa we're early. And they're never early. They we're together. The only time they're together is if I'm around. And when I got to my locker, Brianna said she didn't do anything.

Then when Jayden opened his locker and all those paper's fell out... I thought it was Brianna! But before he opened his locker, Alex and Alexa walked away. Together.

It wasn't Brianna. It was them.

I looked at them now standing in front of me. I dropped my tray of food, and lunged at them.

Everyone gasped, as I jumped over Alexa leaning back, and punched her in the face; slamming her to the ground.

I skid on the ground, my fingers gliding across the floor, as I came to a stop. Alex then came at me, and went for my gut. As instinct, I ducked, causing him to fly over my head.

I jumped back up, being tackled by a well recovered Alexa. She wrestled me on the ground, punching at my face, but I dodged every single one. I lifted my legs, and pushed up, causing her to fly off and above my head.

She landed on Alex, and he growled. He shoved her off, and came at me, throwing a bunch of punches. I blocked with my hands, and then ducked, when he swung his arm at my head.

I got a clear vision of his legs, right in front of me. I brought up one of my legs, and kicked his knee cap as hard as I could. I could hear a faint pop, as he tumbled to the ground.

I stood back up straight, and turned around, when I was met with the knuckles of Alexa. I felt my nose starting to ooze out blood, and I touched it. My hand was covered in blood, as Alexa smirked with victory.

I smiled.

"Hey Alexa, how do you think I'm going to hurt you?" I asked. She looked confused.

"Well, you're not going to hurt me, since you just gave it away." She said. I chuckled.

"Tsk tsk tsk... Wrooonnng answer." I said, and reached behind me, knowing Alex was there.

I grabbed onto his hand, that was about to punch me, and swung around, twisting his arm. I spun him in a circle, untwisting his arm, and threw my foot in between his legs. He bent over, grabbing there, and I kneed him in the face. His face shot up, and I threw him in front of me.

I kicked him in the back, and he stumbled to Alexa, grabbing onto her, and falling on top of my tray and her.

I smirked, as they tried to get up, but slipped in my pudding and soup.

"You see? Now no one likes you." I said, as I walked away. I passed a table, and grabbed someone's napkin, using it to wipe away the blood trailing down my chin and nose.

I was met by Jayden at the doors, holding his phone. He had a huge smile, and was bouncing around me.

"Dude, you freakin' owned them! And I got it all on camera!" He exclaimed as we made our way to the nurse's. I smiled and nodded.

"Yeah..." I paused.

"I guess I did."

A/N: What'd you think about the epic battle? Ahaa. Wasn't that good, but I love how the shy and sweet Skylar turned into a devil killing machine. Please review!
