Hey guys, I’m back with another chapter. Read chapter 4 to understand this chapter better! Enjoy!

The next thing Daniel knew, he was in a hospital. At least that’s what he thought. It was a small white room. He was lying down on a bed with white sheets. There was a hospital monitor to his right and a table to his left. There was a letter on the table saying “get well soon!” with a happy face. He looked around the room and saw a camera in the corner. Surely who ever was watching, knew he was awake. And after thinking and talking to himself for about 5 minutes, the door opened and Giselle walked in with Annie. Aiden was also with them. They didn’t look so happy, although Annie looked worried. Giselle walked towards him with her arms crossed. She kneed down beside him. Took a deep breath and –

“Have you gone mad?!” She yelled at him. “Don’t you ever dare go walking home alone again! I will also stop sharing secrets about the students in OUR school for your OWN PURPOSES! You big Idoit!” Daniel wasn’t really surprised but was shook. He knew it was coming. There was silence for a moment and then Annie spoke up.

“Daniel, what did the man tell you? How did he look like? How old do you think he was?” She asked. She kept going. “Does he look familiar? Did he threatened you? Did he know you? Your name? You’re whereabouts?”

“I think that’s enough questions Annie.” Said Giselle. She looked kinda annoyed. “Now Daniel, can you tell us what happened?” she said. “Well, the man knew who I was and he knew…” Daniel looked at Aiden. “He needs to get out.” Both Annie and Giselle look at him. Aiden rolls his eyes and leaves. “He-he knew we were all siblings..” he continued “I got to shave this Hair thing off because that’s how he knew.”

“Just because of that?” asked Annie. “Well err…… that’s sort of true..”

“I also saw a girl, she saved me..” said Daniel. Giselle and Annie looked at each other. “That would be me.” Said Annie looking back at him again. “You were obviously taking so long and since you were somewhere were the wifi wasn’t so good, it took so a while to track you down. So I arrived a bit late but just in time too.”

“Oh well thanks Annie, I would have been locked to a chair or something if it wasn’t for you” said Daniel. “Anyways, the man did look familiar but I don’t know how.” Giselle sighed.

“I’ll give you a sheet of criminals to see if it’s one of them but for now get some rest.” Said Giselle. “Actually, I need a moment with him” she said and looks at Annie. She nods and leaves the room.

“I think we both know what I’m going to say.” She said.

“That I shouldn’t scare people with their secrets.” He responded.

“You told Brooke you knew she…like her best friend Harper and that scare her a bit. She cried during lunch. Probably thinking you were going to tell the whole school or possibly tell Harper.” Said Giselle.

“How the heck do you do it?” Asked Daniel sort of annoyed.

“Do what?” Said Giselle.

“How do you what I was doing? How do you know she cried? You weren’t even in my class!” Said Daniel. He laid back down.

“That… I can’t really tell you that.” She said.

“I can’t really tell you that.” Daniel mocking her. “Of course you can’t.” He rolls his eyes.

“Fine, I’ll tell you. They let me place camera in each classroom.” Said Giselle looking ashamed. “And well you whispered and so I had to look deeper and I heard the words. That’s part of how i gather information.”

“Then how did you know that Brooke was crying in the bathroom? She was most likely in a stall wasn’t she?” Asked Daniel.

“Well she was crying in the stall. (She sees Daniel face who looks shocked) but I had a camera where the soap is! So I just heard her crying! I don’t have any cameras in the stalls! She said. She was turning pink.

“Um alright. That’s good to know.” said Daniel calming down.

“That’s all I had to say” She pauses and then looks at Daniel. “Get some rest”

“I will, see you.” Said Daniel. “See you.”

It was the next morning and Brooke is pacing around her room, trying to figure out how in the world did Daniel figure out her secret. “Maybe he has mind reading powers!” She thought. “No, that’s be silly. Or maybe he does!” She spent all lunch period crying thinking Daniel might have told the whole school or even worse Harper herself. After that, she went out of the bathroom and to her relief, Daniel didn’t tell anyone. She did keep worrying, at any moment Daniel could be telling his classmates her deepest secret. Then. Ding Ding. Ding Dong. Someome was ringing the doorbell. Brooke quickly put on her slippers and combed her hair. It’s probably Harper she thought. She went downstairs, opened the door and-

“Is there a Brooke Anderson here?” It was just the mailman.

“Er yes..” she said. She signs the paper and the mailman hands her the package. She shuts the door and places the package on the nearest table. She opens the package and- Boom!

Confetti flies around the room. Only it wasn’t colorful, just the colors black and white. Who could have given this to her? Then all of the sudden the doorbell rings. “Another package?” She thought. She opens the door and there stand Daniel. He has a black eye. Brooke stands back and then speaks.

“What are you doing here? And are you okay?” Asked Brooke.

“May I come inside?” He asked.

“Sure..” said Brooke. He comes inside and looks around. He spots the confetti.

“I see you got my present. I came here because I wanted to apologize.” Said Daniel.

“Apologize? For what?” Asked Brooke.

” For scaring you. About…You liking.. Harper” he said.

“Oh” muttered Brooke. “How did you know anyways? I haven’t told anyone.”

“I sort of figure out..” lied Daniel. “Is that all you came here for then?” Asked Brooke.

“Er yeah” mumbled Daniel.

Ding dong. Ding Dong.

They look at each other. Then Daniel opens the door without asking Brooke. There stand the same mailman who gave Brooke the package. “Sorry to bother you again but is there a Brooke Anderson here?”

“Yeah, right here” said Daniel pointing at Brooke.

“They said to open it quickly.” said the mailman.

“Uh alright” said Brooke. She grabs the package and opens it. Confetti blows up on Brooke’s face and she then turns to Daniel. He shrugs.

“It wasn’t me” he said.

“It was me!” Shouted another voice. Daniel and Brooke turn around to face the door and next to the mailman was Harper. She had her bright pink and purple hat and wearing a bow tie with a white long-sleeve shirt and a black skirt.

“It was a little surprise! Plus it makes a great entrance, I have an idea for-” Harper notices that Daniel was there.

“Why is he here?” She shot him a dirty look and Daniel rolled his eyes.

“You guys have the same mindset. You both made a “grand” entrance with confetti blowing up in my face.” Brooke says as she wipes confetti off her shoulders. Daniel turns a slight pink but Harper just crosses her arms.

“I think we both have a different definition of a prank” said Harper “Just to clarify my-” She didn’t get to finish her sentence because Daniel walked out the door.

“It’s killing me! She doesn’t give a damn about me! All she cares about is her stupid pranks and title!”

“You’ve been talking about this since we started Daniel. Also stop swearing” said Giselle sternly. Daniel looks at Giselle.

“Damn isn’t a bad word.” He said.

“It is in my book.” Said Giselle “Anyways, you’ve been pacing and talking to us about your problems. This isn’t getting us anywhere.” Daniel looks up and realize for the first time, that Giselle wasn’t the only one listening. Aiden, Annie and officer Adam were sitting down at a table, all facing him.

“Um sorry. Why am I here again?” Asked Daniel.

“We’re here to investigate you remember?” said Giselle.

“Right. So Harper then said-” Everyone groaned. After what seemed like forever, they finally got Daniel to talk about the man.

“Was he old?” Asked Annie.

“Maybe 30s or 40s” replied Daniel.

“What color hair?” asked Giselle.

“Brown hair, although he has streaks of Gray in his hair.” explained Daniel.

“Facial hair?”

“None”

“Clothing? “

“Brown jacket. Black jeans. Red shirt.”

After what seem a century, Daniel answered every question they had.

“That drained my energy” said Daniel.

“I feel like you drained more energy talking nonsense about that Haper girl then actually talking about the situation.” said Adam.

“Her name is Harper! And I wasn’t talking nonsense about her, I was complaining about her. She-”

“She has lame pranks and jokes.” Adam mocked. “I believe we all know that you have a crush on this girl.” Daniel looked at them and they all nodded they’re heads except for Aiden. Daniel turns a shade of pink.

“It’s not what it looks like! She-” Giselle interrupted him.

“She’s pretty and smart” she said. “I heard say that in his sleep.”

“I heard him once say she poked him with a pencil and he liked it.” Shouted Annie.

“I heard him muttering about her in his sleep too, About how her hair was so pretty.” Said Adam.

“Why are all you watching me sleep!?” Asked Daniel.

“You talk too loud in your sleep.” answered Annie. “Sort of annoying actually. You’ll be talking and all of the sudden you’ll hear “Harper, Harper”

“True” said everyone else in the room.

“Whatever.” muttered Daniel. “Is this meeting over yet?” Giselle looked at the clock and checked her clickboard.

“Yeah, you’ve answered all of our questions and we been here for about 2 hours.” said Giselle.

“I’m starving” added Annie. She gets up and walks to the door. Giselle follows her. “We’ll patrol the town Adam.” said Giselle.

“I’ll come with you guys.” responded Adam. They left the room and only Aiden was sitting in his chair.

” I don’t believe you.” muttered Aiden.

“Since when did you ever believe me?” said Daniel.

“Well never. But I don’t believe you like this girl.” Said Aiden. “I still believe you like Giselle. The love of my life!” At these words Daniel stuck out his tongue in disgust. He rolled his eyes. He like his own sister? Never ever!

“She’s like a sister to me. Nothing more than that.” argued Daniel. “Although I don’t think you deserve her. She deserves better.” Aiden turns the other way and places his hand where his heart is.

“From the first time I laid eyes on her, I knew she would mine.” Aiden said dreamily.

“Ugh, here we go again” muttered Daniel.

“We clicked like Legos. We were made for each other.”

“yeah right.” Said Daniel sarcastically. “I don’t need to listen to this cause this is the most annoying thing ever. I’ll be leaving.” And with that he left.

Night falls and it’s dark again. The street lights are on and it’s windy. Almost every light in each house was gone. It was very late but Lucas knew what he had to do. He rode his bicycle to a gas station. He went in, grabbed a chocolate bar and stood in line. He paid for it and place the bar in his pocket. He rode off again, this time to the park. It was so dark he couldn’t see 10 feet in front of him.

“Hey watch where you’re going!” He heard a man say when he accidentally bumped into him.

“Sorry Sir.” After what seem like 15 minutes, he finally arrived. 13 other people were there. Some were the popular kid and the mean ones. Out of all of them one stuck, Olivia. She was the one you would call the “popular kid”. She was mean. She often bullied Ellie for liking Luke and mocked her. Luke never saw this and Ellie never told him. She would talk and filrt with him.

“Alright guys, alright!” shouted Olivia. “You guys came here for a fight and that’s what you’re getting!” The people cheered.

“Who is it?” asked Lucas.

“I heard it was Max and Alex!” A girl responded.

“I thought it was girls fighting.” Said another boy.

“I know they were confusion on who was fighting but to be clear, the one’s fighting are Gavin and Max!” Yelled Olivia. The crowd cheered more and there were also some boos.

“If you were the ones saying boo, you can head out of here and never come back. So what’s it going to be? Stay or be an outcast?”asked the whole crowd if students. They stay silent and just stared at her. Their silence gave Olivia their answer. She raised her hands up and pointed at both opposite directions.

“Max!” She shouted and then a skinny tall boy with messy hair stepped up.

“Gavin!” She shouted again. Another boy with curly hair and glasses

Went up with Max . The crowd cheered more for Gavin then Max. Perhaps because many thought that Gavin was more cuter than Max , even Olivia thought this (“If you tell me Max looks more like Elvis.”). Max liked Olivia for years now but she always gave a blind eye. They walked down towards Olivia. Max glanced at Lucas and glared at him. Lucas tried not to look at him. He didn’t like Max, mostly because he just thought of Lucas as an “enemy” cause Olivia liked him.

“Alright!! Let the battle begin!” Olivia shouted.

30 mins later, teens were shouting for them to stop. It became so gruesome, kids were beginning to run away. 4 boys grabbed each boy and pulled them back. Blood was running down Max’s head and Gavin had a black eye. Gavin’s glasses were on the ground, cracked. Lucas stayed there trying to help pull Max back. Suddenly Max stopped fighting back against the people who were pulling him back. They stumbled back and Max just stared at them like they were crazy. He walked down the alley, igorning Gavin’s threats. Olivia even shouted at him to get back and he ignored her.

“He probably sick and tired because of this” Lucas thought. “Might as well get away before the police come.” He ran down the same alley, Max took to get away from the fight. He placed his bike somewhere nearby. Then he heard beeping and soon enough, flashing lights. The police had come. He ran faster looking back at the scene, trying to find his bike in the dark and then

WHAM!

He fell on his back and saw a black shadow upon him. It looked down at him and offered a hand. Lucas took their hand and they helped him up. He realized that it was Giselle.

“What are you doing here Lucas?” asked Giselle. “This is a crime scene.”

“I.. wait then what are you doing here? asked Lucas suspiciously.

“Er… I offered to help, you know my dream job is a police officer… ” Said Giselle. “Now what are you doing here?”

“I wanted watch the fight” Lucas said shamefully. “I knew it was wrong but I got invitation from Olivia and well…” Giselle stared at him.

“You don’t like Olivia right?” Giselle asked suspiciously.

“What? No! I just… It’s hard to explain.” said Lucas.

“Oh I see, you’re the cool kid and so you couldn’t refuse to accept an invitation from Ms. Popular. Therefore you came just to talk about it the next day, meaning you like the idea of being a cool kid. Also meaning you still like Ellie.” Stated Giselle. “the things cool kids do.” Lucas just stared at her in shock. How could she possible know?

“Yea but don’t tell Ellie! She’ll kill me, she doesn’t approve of me hanging out with them.” said Lucas.

“Fine by me, only if you don’t tell anyone I was helping. You know I’m also trying to become an undercover cop. So don’t fail me.” Giselle said. She winked at him and ran the other direction. Lucas blinked twice. He didn’t know she would want to become a cop. He thought a lawyer or judge suited her much better. He walked further down the alley. He had found his bike. It was knocked over by the wind. He lifted it back up and rode back to his house. It was probably 1 am or even 2 am. He left his bike by the garage and opened the door. He went inside, took off his shoes and went up to his room. He fell on his bed and stared at the ceiling.

“I wonder what Ellie would be doing right now.” Lucas thought. “Most likely, sleeping”

Ellie wasn’t sleeping, she was wide awake. And she wasn’t alone. “You’re here for what reason again?” asked Ellie.

“I wanted to talk about something.” Said Emma. She was lying on Ellie’s bed, while Ellie was trying to finish an essay.

“At 1 am? ” asked Ellie. “There’s something wrong with you.” Emma looked at her.

“Am I wrong? You decide to sneak into my house at 1 am in the morning when you can be here at 4pm like any other normal person to talk about this thing.” Stated Ellie. She finally finished her essay and grabbed her pencil case to color in some pictures.

“I know but I was thinking about this until later this night.” explained Emma. She got back to her feet and walked around Ellie’s bedroom.

“Still haven’t given up art? Your ceiling looks nice” complemented Emma. Ellie’s bedroom ceiling was filled with the entire solar system. It was painted by Ellie, herself.

“Thanks but what was this thing you wanted to talk about?” asked Ellie again.

“oh, erm. Don’t you think it’s wierd that Daniel and Giselle look alike?” Emma said as she tried to look Ellie in the eye.

“I guess so, never really thought about that.” Ellie replied. “I mean, they both have that hair sticking out. And their eyes look similar and…”

“what about Giselle’s last name?” Asked Ellie as she looks up from her paper. ” Isn’t it Giselle Morris?”

‘i didn’t think about that. But what if their cousins?”

“Couldn’t be, at such a young age they didn’t even knowledge each other. I bet I would play with my cousin or at least tell one other person they were my cousin” explained Ellie. For another 15 minutes, they argued over whether Daniel and Giselle were cousins or siblings. Ellie finally gave up on convincing Emma they weren’t siblings or cousin and fell asleep. Emma turned off her lights and climbed out the window into the dark and windy night.

Ok, it’s a been a very long time. I haven’t been writing a lot but I decided to renew this series. I liked the way it was going. New characters will be added and my art has improved so characters will look so much better. I also started animating. I have also have a YouTube channel where I’ll post more often than here. Lots of things has changed. Don’t worry. All the characters here will stay. Well some probably wont. I can’t wait. Thanks for reading!
