“What, cant Sami talk for herself?” Malcom spat,glaring at me.
“Just go away Malcom. i mean it.or else.”My other friend Evan said,also stepping infront of me
“Aww, your standing up for little miss scaredy cat too. how cute.” Malcom said, in his mocking voice. “Hey sami, babe, come find me when your not with three friends. then we’ll finish this.” He said to me,wiggling his eyebrows.Malcom was such a creep.thank god i had my friends to stick up for me.well, Evan and Kristy anyways,Maggie was still standing in the backround
“And dont worry Sami, ill tell Isaac that you love him for you.”Malcom whispered at me before walking away with a smirk on his face.
“Malcom Johnston is SO hot!” Maggie swooned,but i wheeled on them
“Who told Malcom about my crush on Isaac?”I half asked, half spat.kristy and Evan both immediatly shook there heads,while Maggie looked to the ground
“You know, he really is nice once you get to know him Sami.”She said.

Street Fight Love

2008-04-09T19:57:36Z

or i guess you could say, thats what you get for dating a guy in a crew. my parents hated it, trust me on that, my dad had othe ideas for his ‘little girl’ but i never was one to follow set guidelines.
“chill Hayden. Chill.” Alex said, wrapping his arm around my neck and pulling me clsoe, planting a kiss on my forehead. “Were just gonna teach those jerks a lesson, no big deal. i promise you, you wont get hurt.” He said. of course i wouldnt, Alex would jump infront of a bullet for me. and i knew it.
“Its not me im worried about.” I murmured softly, reaching one hand up to trace the faint, jagged scar that rand fronn his temple to his jaw line. knife fight. he looked at me softly, giving a small laugh.
“Dont you worry about me Haydem Gemson. you still got that switch blade i gave you?” He asked.i nodded. switchblades were good in a town like this.they were intimidating.
“Good. you know the rules. you dont come near the fight unless you get attacked, and even then, only attack whoever attacks you.” He said.

Upsidewards Chapter 11

2008-04-09T11:05:53Z

Satisfying was one word for the Thwunk sound.
totally estatic that i just knocked out my traitor kidnapping big brother is a much better one though
“Uhhh.” Aidan moaned, 3 minutes later, after we had tied him up and surounded him.i kneeled on the ground next to him, so when his eyes fluttered upen,i was the 1st, livid thing he saw
“Kil,” I said, and Killian,standing behind me, nodded. together we dragged Aidan by the collar of his shirt and sat him upright on a bench,at a table
“Start,”I said,glaring at Aidan.”Talking.” He let out a small smirk, wincing a little from the pain of his head.
“No thanks little sister.i think i’ll just sit here for a while.”He said, raising his eyebrows in a mocking way
see, if you have ever been angry, ever been lividly pissed, you know the familiar intense angry urge to hit something. well, when you just got kidnaped after being stalked for years, it just intensefies that feeling by a 100
But iwasnt the one to slap him,Killian was.
and wow, the boy sure can pack a punch.

See, Field hockey sticks are made from some tough material. some are wood. some are plexiglass. youve got your compact plastic, and best yet your Kevlar sticks. hey, if its good enough to be in a bullet proof vest, it was good enough to knock some sense into your diabolically disturbed older brothers.
Personally i was a fan of plexicovered wood. it was a nice weight and gave a very satisfiying THWUNK when you hit something with it.
“Here” I said, throwing Killian a stick. all the oldest kids here (two eighth graders and 8th and 7th graders) had sticks. we also raded the bags for shin gaurds, stole a few chest plates from a couple of 6th grade lacrossers and we looked like the murderous sports team from heck.
good.
we had all the younger kids gather in front of us so when Aidan, Finn or Sean walked in they wouldnt see our makeshift weapons.
as if the world was reading my mind, the door flew open, sending the pungent smell of axe spray-obsessed Finn my way.
“HEY!!” I yelled, charging forward.
Thwunk.

Upsidewards Chapter 9

2008-04-08T23:15:31Z

There were backpacks, sports bags, even bicycles strewn about the room. The kidnapped kids had obviously been snatched from what they were doing, with everything they were doing. I saw the field hockey team with sports bags. Alex the techno geek playing with a flash drive. the only thing the kidnappers had thought to remove were any and all means of communication with the outside world. the gaurds had left the room, i mean were just kids right? no danger there. or so they think.
Because if theres one thing my brothers should have learned growing up with me as there little sisters, is that i dont take things lying down. ever.
“Kil, come on.” I said, dragging him wuietly towards Maddy and the rest of the field hockey players. “Madds, you have your bag right?” I whispered, and she looked up, nodding. perfect.
“Get all the girls sticks, make sure there hidden from view of the door, then meet us in the corner.” I said, and Maddy nodded, begining to whisper to the rest of the girls.
we had 10 total.
Not bad.

Upsidewards Chapter 8

2008-04-08T20:24:24Z

My own big brothers, my idols. the boys who had kept bullies afar and thuroughly interrogated every boy i brought home. the three kids who helped my world turn.
and they kidnapped us. they became horrible scum bag monsters. thats all that they were.
“No Killian. I dont want to hear it.” I said, refering to Killians quiet, reassuring murmuring. it brought me back to a time of summer nights camping out under the starts, building tree houses, playing cards with my best friend. Killian had always had a special talent, an ability to calm anyone down, and make even the bleakest situation brighter.
but not now. this was beyond bleak. this was black. this was like the ominous shadows that threaten to over take your room in the midst of waking up from a nightmare. this was the thick dark smoke of a snuffed out fire. ths was the echoing sound of a slap.
this was hidiouesly horrid.
and it was time it ended.
“Killian…” I said turning back to him. he raised his head.
“Yeah?”
“We need to get out of here. now.”

Upsidewards Chapter 7

2008-04-08T19:50:28Z

I literally staggered backwards, I would have fallen on my but if Killian hadn’t quickly steadied me.
“AIDAN?” I cried, my voice loud and full of shock. nu-uh. no way. there was no way in HECK that the person standing before us was MY short red-haired, green eyed brother. NO WAY . it couldnt be!
but it was.
“Hey little sister, how are you doing?” Aidan said, his voice deep and mocking.
“Aidan…” I said, and looked up at him through a haze of tears. “No…why?” I asked, takin ga step forward. But appearently Aidan didn’t want me coming any closer because he immediatly switched the saftey off his gu when i moved.
“In due time little sister Kiley, in due time. and please, allow me to share the credit for this opperation with my two fellow comrades, Finn and Sean.”
then i saw two people walk in the room, dressed similarly in black.
My two other brothers. My three older brothers were involved in what is possibly the worst crime ever commited by americans in american.
the kidnapping of 20 young children

Upsidewards Chapter 6

2008-04-08T18:53:04Z

Without warning, each gaurd stepped forward, guns cocked, and ushered us into a small crowd in the middle of the room. the doors blew open as metalic clmoping filled the room. Steel toed combat boots. i knew the sound because my other brother, the one older then Finn, Aidan, loved steel toed combat boots. but he was off at college, studying away at BC. actually, i hadnt seen him in over a year.
who ever it was that was walking into the room, i couldnt see, because suddenly a cloak of darkness surrounded us as the lights were turned off. the inital panicky shuffling died down as the foot steps continued.
“Hello.” Said a deep, warm voice that sounded like a dad on christmas, full o fmerry cheer from esponging the liqur cabinet. “I bet your all wondering why your here, and who i am. but dont worry, youll get your answers in no time at all, i promise you. for now the most important thing to know is that if you resist us, we will kill you in painfully.” He said, and suddenly the lights came on.
Holy.
Crap.

What was Tyler Jones doing here? I had barley said a word to him since our big fight in fifth grade. i had started hanging out with Elle and we just.. stopped.
“Tyler? is that you?” I asked, still a little taken back. his face had a purpleish bruise on it, and his blue eyes were dark.
“Actually Kiley, i go by Killian now. but yeah, its me.” He said. Killian, that was his birth name, but after his mom left them, he’d dropped it for his middle name , which was Tyler. so he must have finally reconnected with his mom.
“Whats going on?” I asked, brushing a lock of startlingly red hair out of my face, behind my ear. he looked at me, his navy blue eyes burning into my vivid green ones, and threw a dirty look over my shoulder, at the guards.
“We’ve been kidnapped. all of us. just randomly from our houses or off the street. those men, there terrorists i think, but there not just like a group of people, there like, goverment funded. they have high tech gear and all.” He said.
The goverment? is kidnapping kids?

James Brown Middle school.
MY middle school.
the only question was, why the heck was i kidnapped and taken to my middle school? but i didnt even have time to think of an answer, because as i started to lift my head to make sure of my bearings, a set of double doors opened, and i was shoved in. this room was brightly lit by florescent lights, large and echo-y. i could hear the murmured shuffling of other people, and when the pressure on my head was finally released, i looked up and saw kids. about twenty of them. they were all from JB middle, i reconized a few faces, there was Maddy, a headstrong seventh grader, Adam and Alex, ever fueding fifth grades. a few sixth graders i vaugley reconized. then Tyler. he was the only other eighth grader besides me. we were the oldest two in the room, uless you count the three adults wearing black shirts and jeans with nearly invisible comm units in ther ears.
“Tyler!” I whisper shouted, taking fast steps towards him. he looked up in surprise.
“Kiley?” he asked

Upsidewards Chapter 3

Its harder then you think to scream with a wet rag shoved down your throat. i was gagged and then thudded into the plush leather interior of the high scale car that smelled like disinfectent. it smelled so clean, scary clean, the type of clean that only someone whos covering every track he makes can achieve.
i realized why the cloth was wet. three seconds after i was gagged, shoved and bound, i began to feel dizzy, then i panicked a little, then an eeire calm fell over me.
the next time i woke up, i was being yanked out of the car. my mouth was unbound but i didnt dare make a sound. i was dragged through deep velvet night across a lawn, until i was shoved into a building. a brightly lit building that smelled like crayons, you know that waxy thick smell that sticks to your fingers. all i could see were the tiles of the floor because my head was being shoved downward, so i couldnt see where we were. the tile was a familiar gray speckled white that was generic and cheap.
and then i realized where i was.

Upsidewards Chapter 2

2008-04-07T20:22:14Z

i tried to tell my parents abou tthe whole stalker thing, but the conversations didnt exatly work. i love my parents and all, but they liked to believe they lived in a safe world where everything followed their idea of suburbian perfection.
its been 3 years since it all started, and im in the eighth grade, almost a high schooler.
but then things got even stranger. like, holy shnikes stranger. see, my older brother, Finn, had a football banquet on the fourth of august, same night as my best friend since Tyler Elle’s 14th birthday. and i HAD to be there.
“Sweetie, Elle only lives two streets away, you can walk!” My mom said exasperatedly as i informered her constantly of this predicament. i relied on Finn for rides everywhere.
So i ended up walking to Elles, and, as if by clockwork, A silver mercedees pulled up besideds me on the street, this time a salt and peppered hair man was in it.
suddenly, the door opened and the man jumped out, grabbing me by the waist and shoving me into the back seat of the car.

upsidewards chapter 1

2008-04-07T19:59:29Z

It all started backwards and upside down. If thats even possible i mean. see, i never wanted trouble. not once.I wasnt like those other kids who ran around playing cops&robbers and hopping some mythical world will appear in there closet so they can travel there and save everyone. all i ever wanted was a normal, quiet, grilled cheese and glasses of milk childhood.
so of course i ended it up with anything but.
It started in fifth grade, after a HUGE fight I had with Tyler Jones, who had been my best friend for SEVEN years. the second after i stormed away, walking home on my own instead of riding the bus with him, when a dark blue convertible drove up.
“Hey hon,” A sweet female voice called. “Wanna ride?” now dont worry, i was smart, and i knew better then to accept a ride from a stranger, so i took off running towards my house, while the lady drove alongside, trying to coax me in to her car.
ever since that day i havent been able to go anywhere alone with out a car pulling up, trying to get me in.
