"Josh. I've got lunch ready. Made some mac n cheese." Alexis says as she takes some mac n cheese off the stove before turning the stove off.

"Thanks. That sounds delicious. I'm starving." Josh says as he comes into the room while Alexis sets the pot of food down.

"Ah!" Alexis and Josh shout in alarm as something flies through the window and lands on the table.

"What the? A bottle?" Josh asks confusedly as he and Alexis see it is a bottle like the secret bottles in their hideout in the creek

"Not one of ours. Different soda bottle." Alexis says as she looks at the bottle.

"There's something in it." Josh says as he sees something in the bottle.

"It has a note in it. Like our secret bottles." Alexis says as she picks the bottle up.

"What's it say?" Josh asks as Alexis takes the note out and reads it.

"It's a note. From Craig. He's asking for us both." Alexis says as she looks at the note before at Josh.

"Well? What do we do?" Josh asks.

"You can say yes to joining us." A voice says revealing to be Craig as he climbs through the window.

"Craig!" Alexis and Josh say.

"What are you talking about Craig? Join you for what?" Alexis asks.

"To join us in recapturing our creek. It's our creek and we're taking it back." Craig says.

"You can count me in. I may not be able to fight but I can be useful in other ways. It would be nice though having my best friend with me though." Josh says as he looks at Alexis.

"Alexis?" Craig asks as he looks at Alexis curiously.

"I'm sorry Craig. I can't." Alexis says as she looks at Craig.

"Why not? I thought you wanted the creek back?" Craig asks confusedly.

"I do! But I won't do it without Omar. It just wouldn't feel right. I want to fight with everyone but not without my brother with me. And we're not exactly on the best terms with the past couple of events." Alexis says as she looks down.

"Alexis please. We need you. The creek needs you." Craig says.

"Sorry Craig." Alexis says.

"Well if you won't do it for Craig maybe you'll do it for Omar." A voice says revealing to be Omar.

"Omar!" Alexis says in surprise.

"Hey sis." Omar says as he smiles slightly.

"What are you doing here?" Alexis asks as she gives a slightly annoyed look.

"I figured you'd probably not want to do this with how we left things last time we talked. And thanks Josh for looking out for my sister. Makes me glad she has a best friend like you. But Craig, Josh if you two don't mind I think I got things from here. So Alexis can we step outside and talk?" Omar asks as he rubs his arm as Alexis looks down before nodding.

*Timeskip*

"So?" Alexis asks as she and Omar are outside.

"So what's up?" Omar asks as he smiles and chuckles.

"Come on Omar. Just tell me what you are wanting to say." Alexis says as Omar sighs.

"Well let me start off by saying I'm sorry." Omar says.

"Huh?" Alexis asks in surprise.

"I'm sorry. For ignoring your calls lately. I was just a little agitated that Maya harmed you like that." Omar says.

"It's alright. I'm not mad. I was worried more than anything." Alexis says.

"I know. And I'm also sorry for getting mad at you over the whole thing with The Arm and The Blur." Omar says.

"You mean Jackie and Keun Sup?" Alexis asks as Omar gives an annoyed look.

"Yeah.. Them. Did you really enjoy being around them?" Omar asks curiously.

"You gonna be mad if I did?" Alexis asks.

"Well I'm not happy that you hid that stuff from me. And I'm even more unhappy with the fact of how they've been toward you recently with everything going on with Xavier. But it's your life. Yeah I'm gonna be protective but I can't tell you what to do." Omar says as Alexis nods.

"Then yes. I did. So...?" Alexis asks curiously as she kicks a pebble on the ground.

"So I'm not mad anymore. At least not at you. I've gotten over the fact you kept this stuff from me. Now I'm more or less mad at Keun Sup and Jackie for treating you like they did. If they really cared they would of tried to break free from Xavier rather than giving in to fear." Omar says.

"Tell me about it. But to be honest I don't care anymore." Alexis says.

"You don't?" Omar asks curiously.

"No. I've come to accept this is who they are. Like it or not." Alexis says as she sighs and looks down.

"You don't mean that. You still want your friends back." Omar says as he looks at Alexis.

"Yeah... I do. They made me happy being around them. But they're never going to leave Xavier long as he is King. And right now I'm not certain I wanna be near them. They crossed some lines." Alexis says.

"Yeah. You gonna be okay? I can always steal their uniforms and send them running home naked like I did the Waterlilies. You know. If you want some payback at them." Omar says as he smirks.

"Tempting but no. But thanks anyway Omar. I'm glad to have you as a brother." Alexis says as she laughs and smiles at the thought.

"And I'm happy to have you as my sister. So are we good again? Will you come home?" Omar asks.

"Yes we are. And of course. I love hanging out with Josh but it'll be good to come home." Alexis says as she smiles and hugs Omar.

"Glad to hear it." Omar says as he hugs Alexis back before the two pull away.

"So does this mean we can count on you both to help us in the fight?" Craig asks as he and Secret Keeper walk over before Alexis and Omar walk over.

"You can count on us both." Alexis says as she and Omar smile.

*Timeskip*

"Alright. First thing's first. Everyone thank my mom for providing snacks. Alright enough of that. Please direct your attention to the screen. This is our feeder of operations. We'll split into four teams. Led by me, Kelsey, J.P. and Omar. Once we make our push through the front lines my team will head to the king's keep to look for the flag while Kelsey will lead Maney and the Ten Speeds search every corner of the maze. Omar's team will make their way through the sewers to fort Wisteria and J.P. you will be in charge of defending our flag." Craig says as the group hears a window open and sees Bobby.

"What about me?" Bobby asks as he climbs inside.

"Bobby? What are you doing here?" Craig asks.

"Please hear me out Craig. I know I've made a few mistakes. I just want a chance to make things right and to make it up to you." Bobby says pleadingly.

"Don't make it up to me. Make it up to the creek." Craig says as Bobby smiles.

*Timeskip*

"Listen up! This is a winner take all game of capture the flag. Freeze tag rules. The overpass is the border. Any kid tagged on the opposing side will be frozen in place for the duration of the game. The first to retrieve the flag and return it to their side will rule the creek. The game will begin at the sound of my sousaphone." Timekeeper says as she prepares to blow her sousaphone with both sides of the creek standing at ready for the game to begin.
