Hello everyone. Welcome to the second episode of Sky High: My Stretchy Step Brother. In this episode will be introduced to Pyro, Lash's father and Embrick's step father who's the owner of Fazbear Entertainment, a company from Five Nights At Freddy's series, and Yuki, Embrick's mother and Lash's step mother who is a fashion designer.

Embrick and Lash were at our home. They went to the front door and met our parents in the kitchen. Lash's dad, Pyro, is Italian, working for Fazbear Entertainment and his superpower is pyrokineses and my mom, Yuki, is Japanese and works in the fashion industry and her superpower is cryokinesis.

Lash's dad Pyro: Hi, Lash.

Embrick's mom, Yuki: Hi, Embrick. How's school today, boys?

Embrick and Lash glared at each other and lied to our parents.

Embrick: It's...fine...

Lash's dad Pyro grins at the two, not noticing the obvious tension between you and his son.

Pyro: "Glad to hear it! We're having ravioli for dinner tonight, you boys interested?"

Lash's shoulders are tense as he stands there, trying his best to put on a normal expression for his parents.

Lash: "Uh, yeah. Sounds good, Dad..."

Embrick: Yeah...that'll be good...

Pyro: "Great! Dinner will be ready in about an hour. Make sure you boys do your homework first, now, you hear me?"

Lash lets out a scoff at his dad's words, rolling his eyes when he's not looking at him. His dad's always telling them to do their homework first before anything else. Me and Lash walk to the hallway and are about to go to our bedrooms. Lash glances over at you as the two of you walk down the hallway towards your respective rooms. He's still annoyed with you, but at the same time, he's starting to feel a bit guilty. The argument from earlier is still fresh in his mind, and he's not sure whether he should say something or not.

Lash: ...You can't just do that to me, you know.

He mutters, referring to making him cry with your power.

Embrick: You should've moved.

Lash scowls in response, hating that you're right.

Lash: Yeah, I should have.

He grudgingly agrees, not liking to admit that you were right. He glances over at you again, still wrestling with his conflicting emotions. Embrick went to his room and shut the door right in front of him. Lash glares at your door, annoyed that you just slammed it in his face. He's about to knock on the door and continue the argument, but stops himself, knowing that starting another fight wouldn't lead to anywhere good.

Lash: Damnit...

He mutters under his breath, turning away from your door and walking into his room. An hour later after we did our homework, Embrick and Lash eating ravioli with their parents at the dining table. Lash sits at the dining table, moodily pushing his food around his plate. He's still annoyed with you, but he's trying to act civil for the sake of his parents. He glances over at you, glaring silently.

Yuki: So boys, how's the ravioli?

Embrick: It's good...mommy...

Pyro: "Great! I'm glad you like it. I tried a new recipe this time, adding more cheese and spices to the sauce."

Pyro grins at you and Lash, oblivious to the tension between the two of you. Lash takes a bite of his ravioli and nods slightly.

Lash: "Yeah, it's good."

He mutters, still not looking directly at you.

Yuki: Do you boys enjoy the lunch we made for you?

Lash glances at Pyro and Yuki as they speak. He knows that it would be suspicious if he doesn't answer your mom.

Lash: "Yeah, it's fine."

He responds, trying to sound nonchalant.

Embrick: I love the pasta you made for me, Mr. Lombardi...

Pyro: chuckles You can call me, dad or daddy.

Embrick: Um...sure, daddy.

Pyro laughs at your response, clearly touched by your use of the term "daddy"

Pyro: "Aw, that's sweet. I'm glad you like it."

He grins at you and then looks over at Lash, who's still moody and distant. After dinner, me and Lash left the table after washing dishes with our parents. We were in the living room, staring at the frame of us and our parents. Embrick and Lash feel unhappy for being stepbrothers. Lash stands in the living room, staring at the family portrait on the wall. It shows all four of you standing together, trying to look happy. But there's a sense of forced smiles and tension in the photo, betraying the fact that not all is well within this newly made family.

Embrick: I don't know why my mom has to marry your dad. We shouldn't become stepbrothers in the first place.

Lash scoffs at your comment, still staring at the photo.

Lash: Trust me, I wish we weren't stuck as stepbrothers too. He mutters, the disdain clear in his voice.

Embrick went to the couch, grabbed the remote and watched Nightmare on Elm Street. Freddy Krueger's his favorite slasher killer. Until then, Lash snatched the remote and changed the channel to Friday the 13th. Jason Voorhees is Lash's favorite slasher killer. Lash settles down on the couch, clearly pleased with himself.

Lash: There's no way in hell I'm watching Nightmare on Elm Street again.

He says with a smirk as he changes the channel to Friday the 13th, clearly excited about his favorite slasher movie.

Embrick: Hey, I'm watching that!

Lash rolls his eyes at your protest, still holding onto the remote.

Lash: Too bad. It's my turn to pick the movie.

He retorts, a smug smile on his face.

Embrick: Jason sucks! Freddy's awesome!

Lash scoffs at your words, offended that you would insult Jason like that.

Lash: Hell no, you've got it backwards! Freddy sucks, Jason's the true king of horror.

Embrick: Yeah, right! Jason throws his feces at victims' faces while Freddy kills kids in their nightmares!

Lash laughs at your description of the killers' behaviors, clearly enjoying the debate.

Lash: Oh please, Freddy is so over-the-top and ridiculous. And he's not even real! Jason is the real deal, he's the original unkillable horror icon.

Embrick: Come on. Jason killed many final girls and a final guy while Freddy killed many final girls in the sequels.

Lash rolls his eyes, not convinced by your argument.

Lash: Yeah, but who's more iconic? Who do people talk about more? It's Jason, no contest. He's got the mask, the machete, the unstoppable killing machine thing going on. Freddy's just some burnt dream demon guy."

Embrick: He has a glove white razor sharp knives. Better than a shitty long knife called a machete. Although, Jason used more than one weapon, nitwit.

Lash scoffs in disbelief at your defense of Freddy.

Lash: Okay, we're going into semantics now? Who cares if Jason has more weapons? He's still more badass than Freddy. And don't call me a nitwit, jerk.

Embrick: And don't call me a jerk, nitwit.

Embrick and Lash angrily growled each other like wolves. Lash bristles at the growl, still feeling pissed off. He's not used to anyone talking back to him like that, especially you. He growls back, not backing down from the glare you're giving him.

Lash: Yeah, well...screw you. At least I have better taste in horror movies."

Embrick: If I had a razor blade glove, I would slash your throat.

Lash rolls his eyes, clearly unbothered by your threat. He'd like to see you try to use a razor blade glove.

Lash: Alright, tough guy. Calm down, you're not Freddy. And even if you were, like hell you could take me down. I'd kick your ass and slice your head off with a machete if I had one.

Embrick: Yeah, right. You're not Jason.

Lash scoffs at your comment, still not backing down.

Lash: Oh, yeah? Then who am I supposed to be, huh? Some wimpy horror villain that you can take down easily?"

Embrick: Yep.

Lash's expression darkens at your response, clearly not liking that you're underestimating him. He grits his teeth, getting more riled up.

Lash: Oh yeah? You think you could take me, huh? You think you're some kind of badass horror movie hero?

Embrick: Yeah!

Lash scoffs, not able to believe you. He's starting to get really annoyed with your overconfidence.

Lash: Alright, you wanna test that theory? Come at me, then. Let's see how well you do against me.

Embrick: Let's do this.

Before we fight, our mom asks us.

Yuki: Boys, what are you doing?

Don't want our parents to hear us fighting, we lied to our mom

Embrick: We're watching TV.

Lash and you both quickly lie to your mom, trying to act casual as if nothing is wrong. Lash puts on a fake smile, trying to hide his annoyance.

Lash: "Yeah, we're just watching TV. Everything's fine, Mom."

Yuki: Okay.

Lash lets out a frustrated groan as you both decide not to fight. He's still annoyed with you, but knows that getting into a physical fight would only cause more trouble.

"Damnit..."

He mutters under his breath, still angry at you. After finishing Friday the 13th, Embrick swiped the remote from Lash's hand and changed the channel. Lash glares at you as you swipe the remote from his hands.

Lash: Hey! Gimme that back.

He protests, not happy that you're taking control of the TV again.

Nope.

I turned on the channel and watched vampire movies. I love vampires, but Lash hates them. He swiped the remote from me back and changed the channel to werewolf movies. Lash loves werewolves, but I hate them.

Hey!

Lash smirks as he changes the channel to a werewolf movie, clearly pleased with himself. He knows how much you hate werewolves, and he's enjoying annoying you.

Lash: My turn to choose the movie now, loser.

Embrick: Werewolves are bunch of dumb mutts.

Lash rolls his eyes at your comment, still grinning. He's enjoying getting under your skin.

Lash: Oh please, werewolves are badass. They're strong and powerful creatures. Unlike those lame vampires that you're so into.

Embrick: Vampires can drink all blood while werewolves eat meat, being too attractive and being wild at night.

Lash scoffs, not convinced by your argument.

Lash: Yeah, but werewolves can transform into badass beasts at will. They're not afraid to fight or get their hands dirty. And when they're in wolf form, they're pretty damn hard to take down.

Embrick: At least vampires were not beasts that has fleas.

Lash laughs at your comment, loving how you're grasping at straws to defend vampires.

Lash: Oh yeah, cuz vampires are so much better. They're just fancy blood-sucking creatures that sparkle in the sunlight. Yawn. At least wolves are fearless and wild.

Embrick: Well, you look like a werewolf: dumb mutt, crazy, loud and shitty.

Lash glares at you, clearly annoyed by your comment. He doesn't like being compared to a werewolf.

Lash: Oh please, you're just jealous that you can't handle a little chaos and wildness in your life. At least I can let loose and have some fun, unlike you, stuck-up vampire lover.

Embrick: At least vampires aren't bullies like you, wolf.

Lash laughs coldly, his smile turning sinister.

Lash: Oh yeah? Well, at least I'm not a scared little wuss like you. Wolves don't back down from a fight. We're strong and fearless, unlike vampires who run and hide from the sun like a bunch of pussies.

Embrick: You should lick werewolf pussies you fucking pussy.

Lash's expression darkens at your insult, his temper flaring.

Lash: You think you're funny, huh? Let's see how funny you are when I claw your goddamn throat out.

He growls, his hands clenching into fists, clearly tempted to hurt you. I growled at him back, as we were about to fight, but...

Pyro: Boys, what's going on? Embrick: groaned and lied Just watching the scary movie.

I growled at him back, as we were about to fight, but...

Pyro: Boys, what's going on? Embrick: groaned and lied Just watching the scary movie.

Lash quickly composes himself, putting on a fake smile to try and cover up the tension between you two.

Lash: "Yeah, just watching a scary movie, Dad. Everything's fine."

Pyro: Okay. Don't get nightmares. He chuckled

Embrick and Lash once again decide not to fight as we watch the werewolf movie. Lash grumbles under his breath as Pyro speaks, still irritated with him. He keeps watching the werewolf movie, not wanting to give you the satisfaction of getting under his skin again. But he can't help but glance over at you every now and then, still angry at all your insults.

After the movie, we went to our bedrooms. Lash, in his pajamas, purple shirt and red pajama pants, watching YouTube on his laptop before going to bed. Lash sits in his bed, scrolling through YouTube videos. He's still in a bad mood from your fight earlier, and the videos aren't really helping to calm him down. He glances over at the clock and sees that it's already getting late.

Before going to bed, he got a message from Speed. He checked the message and said, "Lash, you need to see this shit!" Speed shows him the link. Lash clicked the link and much to his shock, it's a video on YouTube of Embrick using sad manipulation power on Speed in the cafeteria and Lash in English class, made them cry. Lash sees many views, like and comments, makes him and Speed becomes a total embarrassment.

Lash's eyes widen in shock and horror as he watches the video. He can't believe it - Embrick managed to expose and humiliate him and Speed on YouTube. He scrolls through the comments and sees how many people are laughing at them, making fun of them for being made to cry by your powers. He can feel his face growing hot with anger and embarrassment.

Episode 2 Ends.

Hey everyone. I hope you enjoy the second episode/chapter. Lash and Embrick were really arguing over their favorite movies and Lash is really angry at the embarrassed video because of Embrick. I wonder what will happen next. Stay tuned for Episode 3! :)
