Chapter One: Welcome to the Neighborhood!

Late August

"Isn't this party, like, so awesome?" Lindsay asked Heather.

Heather scoffed, "I know, Lindsiot! Now get me some chips!"

Lindsay ran to the Asian's kitchen, where there was a barbeque bag, and a dill pickle bag.

"Heather wears red…and the barbeque bag is red…she likes barbeque!" Lindsay squealed, happy she finally figured out something. Just as she was about to go find Heather again, a hand fell on the blonde's shoulder.

"Hey Lindsay," Tyler said from behind her, blushing heavily.

"Hey..who are you again?" Lindsay asked, feeling bad about her memory.

Tyler sighed, before smiling. "Tyler, your supportive and loveable boyfriend."

Lindsay remembered Tyler now! "Yeah! Right!" Lindsay squealed, and gave Tyler a short kiss. "Where's Heather?"

"I think she went to her pool. Man, I don't know how girls get dressed into bikinis so fast," Tyler said, earning a laugh from Lindsay.

"Okay, thanks!" Lindsay said, giving Tyler a kiss on the cheek before running to the pool.

"Heather! Heather!" Lindsay squealed, bumping into Beth as she ran. Beth tripped, and fell into the pool..right onto heather.

"AAAAA!" Heather screamed.

Lindsay gasped in shock, and ran to pull her friend out of the pool. "Are you okay?" Lindsay asked, grabbing Heather's arm.

Heather pulled herself out, and spit out some water. "THE WATER! MY FACE!" Heather looked down at the water, which was red, and grabbed out the mirror, and saw her eye quickly turning black and blue. The Asian turned her head over to Beth, who was awkwardly standing there.

"Forgive and…forget?" Beth asked, nervous.

The Friday before school starts

"It's almost time to go!" Sunday Summers said, impatient as she waited for her daughter.

Sunday's husband, Ralph Summers, was a bit more sympathetic. "She surfed here before she could walk, no wonder she's sad."

The girl who was being talked about was Bridgette Summers. She was leaving her home in Vancouver to move to Toronto. She wasn't ready to be a city girl. She wasn't ready to change. But she had to. She drifted her hands across the sand, before getting back up and walking to her beach house - soon to be sold.

"I can't believe it." Bridgette said, nervous. "Will the plane be as bumpy as the plane to Peru?"

Sunday laughed. "No way! This is only a five-hour flight!"

Bridgette sighed in relief, before going into her beach house, and into her empty room. On the floor was a photo of her and another girl. Her best friend, Ari. They hadn't talked in years, but Bridgette still missed her, and always would. She grabbed the photo, and stuffed it into her plane backpack. "Okay, I'm ready," Bridgette finally said, exiting her room….

"I'm moving today, I'm moving today, I'm moving, hooray!" Ella sang as she packed up her stuff in her mother's apartment. She and her mother were moving to a new school district, where her stepfather and step siblings were.

"Ella, are you excited to meet your siblings?" her mother said, peeking into the room.

"Yes! I have seven little stepbrothers, so it'll be like snow white!" Ella chirped.

Her mother laughed, then reminded, "There's also Rodney, who's your age. You'll have to be a good role model, as he's a bit..distanced."

"Oh! Yeah!" realized Ella, before she went back to singing. As she sang, she tripped on a stuffed animal, and fell on her back onto her soft princess bed. She looked up at the stars, and knew that someday, somehow, she would be dancing under those stars..with the perfect boy.

Beth was crying in her room. She had just been abandoned by her best friends. She looked at the message again.

HTHR123: We are done.

Beth's tears continued to cry as she saw those hurtful words…again….and again.

"Are ya okay, Beth?" her Pa asked.

Beth wailed, "Pa, I was just becoming popular, and now Heather abandoned me! What do I do!"

Pa sighed. "Beth, people are gonna be mean in life. I want to see you overcome your sadness…and become a new girl, with or without Heather."

Beth smiled at her Pa as he left to go work with Ma on the farm.

"Time…for a reinvention," Beth mumbled.

"This year, things WILL be different. This year, things WILL be DIFFERENT!" Zoey was chanting this to herself again and again. She was finally moving to a new school after she was bullied in her old school so much she had to leave. "Does that sound awkward?" She wondered.

Zoey fell to the floor, frustrated. "How much does it take to be COOL?" she groaned. She sighed, and sat on her bed. She grabbed her headphones, and listened to The Bertles to relax herself.

"I can't let myself be walked all over!" wailed Zoey, before fully zoning out to her music..

Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door.

"Yeah?" Zoey asked, opening the door. She saw a letter. "Hm," She said, opening the letter.

Hey.

You're my everything, and you know it.

I saw you get bullied, but I had to leave you years ago.

Now you're coming back to me,

and I'll make sure you don't get the same fate…

=====================================================================whopper

"WHAT'S UP PRANKSTERS! Here I am, exiting the airport! Are you ready for my career to go beyond Three Guys In A Beach House?" Chase asked his audience. He had just left his home in Nova Scotia to Toronto, and left his youtube channel along with it. "You're watching ONE GUY IN AN APARTMENT!" He cheered, explaining the name of his new channel. Just then, his little sister Adalinne grabbed his phone.

"Na na na na na!" Adalinne teased as she stuck her tongue at the live stream.

Chase shouted, "ADALINNE STOP! I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF A STREAM!" but Adalinne just threw the phone up into the sky.

"No no no no!" he worried as he scrambled across the crowd of Pearson Airport.

"Looking for this?" a girl asked. She had blonde hair, and an orange sweater.

Chase sighed in relief. "Oh thank GOD! I would be dead if I lost this!" Once he had the phone in his hand, he looked at the nice girl, and smiled. "Hi. I'm-"

The girl interrupted him and squealed, "You're Chase! THE Chase from Three Guys In A Beach House! I remember you saying you were moving to Toronto on Real Life Bowling Except The Bowling Ball Is A Life Sized Watermelon! Uh, Sorry. I'm Emily, call me Emma. Did I overwhelm you?"

Chase laughed, and told Emma, "I've met crazier fans. One tried to bite off my arm and keep it in her room!"

Just then, Adalinne dashed over to the two and giggled. "Do you have a girlfriend already?" She asked, bursting into laughter. Chase and Emma looked at eachother, and blushed.

"Bye," Chase said, running off with Adalinne.

So! Here we have the beginning! What is gonna happen, is that there will be 3 protagonists from Gen1, 2 from Gen2, 2 from Gen3, and 2 from Reboot. I'll show you the protagonists we have so far!

Gen 1 Protagonists: Lindsay, Beth, Bridgette

Gen 2 Protagonists: Zoey, (Not revealed)

Gen 3 Protagonists: Ella, (Not revealed)

Gen Reboot Protagonists: Chase, (Not revealed)

Reasons:

I chose Lindsay because she seems like just a dumb blonde girl, but I wanted to show her trying to get smarter, because she deserves better. Beth, I felt went downhill in Action, and I wanted to see her as she forges her own way aside from Heather. And I chose Bridgette because who doesn't like her?

I wanted to have the challenge of making Zoey a protagonist without keeping her a Mary Sue, since she was pretty much a half Mary Sue in ROTI, and a full Mary Sue in AS.

I remember that on a phone, I wrote a HS fic and Ella was one of the main protagonists, so I wanted to remember that.

And for Chase…why not chase?
