~AJ~

I sat there, in my room- well, my old one, with Sarah, Jake, Oliver, Kayla and Robert. We were around some old table Robert had found and dragged in here that was covered by a campus-grounds map, with our routes drawn in black on it. It was the day after the barn-cellar accident.

"Okay, so here are our routes " Roberts explains and takes out a red marker and draws another path "this is Lucas's plan of action as we saw in his cellar. He plans on taking Sarah because she walks back to the house alone through the woods. He wants to take Sarah away from her route and take her to the clearing. So, we need to intercept him. Sarah will go on the same path she always does, and so will we, but on this specific day, we will cut to go to the clearing so we can bring him down, but we have to avoid Lucas." Robert draws the new paths in blue on the map.

"So, what? Are we just gonna do this everyday until Lucas does his part?" Jake asks

"No. He would catch us. But, I saw a date on his map. The third day before lessons end. I think this is when he plans to do is, but I'm not sure..." Robert says "I looked over the video we took several times, to reveal it but there's nothing."

"What are you suggesting?" Sarah asks

"We have to go back down there." Roberts looks between all of us "We can't even hope to do anything like this right without all the right information, the timing needs to be perfect. And perfect timing comes with knowledge."

"Oh bloody hell, no." Oliver exclaims in exasperation

"We already have another way to get there, a safer way. We just need find out how to get back into that study. Then we need to be on-guard 24/7 until the opportunity arises. Robert tells us as we hear the front door open

"Hello?" The familiar voice asks, it sounded faintly familiar

"Is that?" I question

"Anthony?" Kayla finishes for me as she sighs "yep."

~Anthony~

I walked into Anubis house with my overnight bag and backpack, and it felt weird to be back. Be back at the place I spent my whole childhood wishing I've could've been at. Back at the place Kayla had and I didn't. The place I finally ended up at, but was robbed of, once again, by Kayla.

But I was back and no matter how furious at Kayla I was, she was my sister. I loved her, though sometimes that could be difficult, nothing could change that. She needed help. So, here I was. Even though any sane person wouldn't be.

Maybe because I still saw the Kayla I grew up with. Young Kayla. Sweet Kayla. The Kayla who wasn't so self-conscious, but never dared to tell anyone. The Kayla that didn't care about designer labels and her hair and make up. The Kayla who wasn't obsessed with those stupid little numbers on that scale. My sister who wasn't struggling to over-come her Atelophobia. Her fear of imperfection, that haunted her almost to the point of sickness.

Maybe because I thought there could possibly be part of that little girl who ran threw fields and climbed trees in sundresses and a bow-tied ponytail. Maybe there was a part of that sparkly-eyed little girl behind that cold, blue-eyed, blonde haired facade.

I forgot the idea. She would never change back, but she was still my sister. Plain and simple. I had to help her.

That's when I saw Kayla rush into the foyer.

"C'mon" she said, grabbing my arm and pulling me outside in a rush "let's go for a walk..."

She dragged me far into the woods and away from the house "what the hell Kayla?" I ask

"Just imagine your in your first movie again." She rushes

"Why?" I question, then realize what she's implying. She's in that situation "oh, no. Who it it? Give me the pros and cons."

"Robert and AJ." She tells me "AJs is basically everything. Tall, handsome, athletic, sarcastic yet witty. But he's dating Scarlett. Roberts smart, nice, brilliant, mature, and handsome as well, like AJ. But he's the person I convinced myslef into thinking I need, not who I actually want, oh and Scarlett's also totally in love with him."

I snap my fingers "that's it! That's your game point! I bet you she's playing him. Find proof. Tell him. Even if you don't have proof, tell him anyways. Act. Your good at it. He'll believe you. Then, AJ and Scarlett will be over. Just give it some time, break it off with Robert, so no one suspects then slowly start dating AJ, Scarlett will then get Robert. It's basically a casual, secretive boyfriend swap. No one will know, but remember timing is key."

"Are you sure it'll work?" She asks

"I'm an actor, you wouldn't believe the amount of scripts I've read like this. I'm sure." I nod "now, c'mon. It's starting to rain, and I kinda want some Trudy's and Pipers food!"

~Poppy~

I sat there, in my room, processing what I had just seen. Anthony came in, and Kayla rushed him out just as fast. Of course, I followed, a few paces behind, once I heard all I needed to, I queitly rushed back. So now I was on my bed, documenting everything I've just seen in our little notebook we've thrown together for our mission while waiting for Lucy and Scarlett to come back from their study group. And when they do, I nearly fly off my bed.

"You'll never believe what happened..." I rambled on "Anthony came and Kayla took him somewhere to talk and I followed and it's all working out perfectly! Except for the fact that she thinks she's gonna end up with AJ... Which will never happen."

"Your kidding me, right?" Scarlett asks

"No." I shake my head quickly amd shortly

"Well, I think we've just won." Lacy smiles vindictively

~Kayla~

I was walking down my corridor thinking of a way to find proof when I hear Poppy start to ramble on from the crack in her door. Before I know it, I'm recording their whole comversation on my phone.

They thought they were tricking me, but I was tricking them.

I was fighting fire with fire. But I was winning because I had a special kind of fire.

Time and proof.

And with that, I had Wildfire. I hope you know how to play with fire girls.
