Ah, my normal, yet not normal life. Awesome.

"Danny!"

Hello. My name is April Black. I have a pale complextion, like the rest of the group, I have shortish black hair that covers one eye, that also has white, neon green, and crimson red streaks in it. To my friends I'm either 'The ninja' or 'The raven'. I'm '5"11... I think.... and have blue eyes with gray on the outside and around the pupil. I have a group of close friends that surround me and are like my family. Danny, who's 'The jokester', '6"3, shaggy white, yes I said white, and had black and green streaks through it, and he has bright green eyes. Then there's Anna who's '5'6, and 'The fighter'and the shortest of the group, she has blond hair with neon green streaks and grey eyes that seem to sparkle with mystery and danger. She switches between neon green and red streaks. Amy is 'The big sister' who protects everyone and is '5"10, brown puppy eyes, brown hair with a single white streak. Then there is the twins. James and Jack. James being 'The perve' and Jack being 'The Book' because that's all he's ever doing. Both are '6"2, blond hair with black highlights, blue eyes and Jacks nose is always in a book. We steer him away from trees and walls, which he usually is always almost running into. Damned book. Now that you have background well this will be easy.

"Danny!" "Yea?!" "Have you seen my eyeliner?!" "Nooooooooooo!" "Danny! Give it back!"

Did I mention we live together?

"I don't have it! James does!"

Great the perve has it. That's just great.

"JAMES GIVE ME MY GOD DAMNED EYELINER BEFORE I RIP YOUR SORRY ASS HEAD OFF AND HANG IT OVER THE MANTLE!" "Come and get it sweetheart!"

I growled and slamed open his door, grabbing him by the front of the shirt and looking him in the eye.

"Wow, all this for eyeliner eh?" "No. It's the fact that it was in my underwear and bra drawer at the bottom with the rest of my make up and all of the drawer was looked through." "Ooooooo. Dude, your in deep shit."

We both looked wide eyed at Jack who had not spoken or lifted his head out of a book for 2 years straight now. Then I got over it and looked back at his un fortunate twin.

"Yeah, he's right."

And punched him right in the jaw, knocking him out.

"You know where it is?" "3rd drawer on the left, right on top." "Thanks Jack." "Yup." "I think this is the most you've spoke in your entire life." "Yup."

And with that he turned the page in his book, I grabbed my eyeliner and walked out of the room. Once I had made my way back to my room, I got ready for another day. I picked out my clothes, showered and dressed. A black shirt with a batman logo on it, red skinny jeans, my black fez, and my knee high 'Abby' boots. Abby from NCIS. These had buckles on them. I had a thick rim of eyeliner and was good to go.

"Amy! Anna!" "Yea?!" "Where we going today?!" "What? Do we not get included?!"

I turned around to see Danny and Jack ready to go, Jack once again silently absorbed in his book.

"Sure. Why not. Your brother still knocked out?"

A nod.

"Good."

I then walked to the kitchen and saw breakfast already made.

"Thank you Amy!" "Welcome." "I helped too!" "Thank you Amy and Anna. So how 'bout Pyro Fang?" "Nah, lets got to... Bleeding Heart!" "Ok."

Just then the phone rang. This week was my turn to answer it.

"God Damn it! I'm eating pancakes!"

I picked it up.

"Hello?" "Hello. May I speak to Ms. April Black?" "Speaking." "Ah. Yes, Ms.Black, we have something to speak to you about. The matter is important." "Can I call you back? I'm kinda eating right now. DANNY STAY AWAY FROM MY PANCAKES! I'LL WOOP YOUR SORRY ASS! Sorry. Can I call you back?" "Of course Ms.Black."

And then she hung up. I walked over to Danny and slapped him on the back of the head.

"My pancakes."

He sighed.

"Common. Share! We know Amy always gives you the best pancakes!" "Not true!"

Everyone but me looked at Amy like 'really? are you kidding?' I was the youngest of the group. 17. Anna 18, Danny 18, the twins both 18 and Amy 19. The door then opened and I did not expect what I saw.

Unwanted visitors.... how pleasent

One word. One word was all I spoke. "Dad." Then a sentence. "Dad. Mother. Why are you here?" There was no 'Oh hello, how are you I missed you!' no. They were people I never wanted to see again. "Just stopping for a visit." He had a bright, smug smile like he owned the joint, which he didn't. "Your not welcome here, to visit. Get out. Now." The last part was a growl. I would not have these monsters in my house. Trying to fix me when there was nothing wrong. They then would punish me for no reason. I never understood them. "Oh, but why sweetie?" They must of found out I had gotten money. "Because I said I never wanted to see you again you disgusting bottom feeders!" This time it was all a growl and both Danny and Amy were holding me back. "Awww, but honey we love you!" "No you don't! Your both just fucking assholes and bottom feeders! Get the hell out now, before I make you!" It was a snarl. My father snorted and my mother laughed. "As if you could!" "Watch me." My face was set dead in stone as my friends backed away. I walked foward, power and dominace in my walk and the way I stood. I punched each in the face once, then twice, then a third time before throwing them, literally out the door and locking it. Then I yelled, well more like roared as I pounded the door, slowly sliding down. My fez was over on the other side of the room. I just sat there. I wasn't hungry anymore. I slowly stood up. "Oh crap, she's going quiet again! Uh, fuck! Danny say something!" "April, are you alright?" A simple nod. I grabbed my hat and my keys. Jingleing them for a sign to come along. Then I grabbed my coat. Which any other day I would have gone on forever about. It's not any other day. It's trench coat that goes down to my ankles and the kneck meets my hat. It's pure black with studs around the edges and on the kneck. I opened the door and walked into the now pouring rain. What a perfect coincidence. I slowly walked to the car. Everything was like that. Slow motion. My brain was having a hard time processing the information around it. It seemed to take an eternity to get to the car, but it only took a few seconds. I opened the driver door to the beautiful, sleek, black truck. I stepped inside and started it, waiting for them all to get in. Once they were all in I started it up and drove to the bleeding heart. It was the same here as it was going to the car. Everything was in slow motion. A hard time processing. I watched my friends, family I should say, break off and go in different directions. Like my heart too many times before. I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. A message from James. "Were r u guys? There's some people here to see you." "Be right there." I hit send and gave the keys to Danny. They all looked at me funny. Then my mind began processing again. I turned around and ran. I ran as fast as I could, which was damned fast. I jumped and leaped over obstacles, my coat flying behind me like wings. I ran until I reached the house. I slowly turned the knob, knowing that if THEY were in there I had to be ready to fight. But it wasn't them. It was teenagers all dressed in black skin suits with an older female as their leader. They all surounded her and their heads snapped towards me at once. I stanced myself for I fight. I needed this.

Fighting people in black suits... good stress reliver

I stood my ground as they came towards me. Why the fuck were these people here?! I saw James tied up and motherly insicnt kicked in. See I may be the ninja and the raven, but I was a very motherly person and all my friends were my family and my insitics kick in with them. Fist person that came at me I kicked him across the face, then swooped underneath him, making him fall. Then I knocked him out and went to the next. This one was a girl with a smirk. I smirked back and did the approach she least expected. I punched her in the face twice then kicked her in thr stomach, knocking her out. Two down, six to go. The remaining six attacked and I smiled. I was soooo ready. I took two of the girls heads and smashed them together, then the same with the boys. Then I smashed a girl and boy together.....that sounded soooo wrong. I then kicked each one in the face sending them flying, and unconcious. I then walked towards the woman, who looked up. I facked a puch to the face and then side swept her, landing onto of her, then actually punching her and knocking her out. I then grabbed a bunch of chains from the basement and when James looked, I just told him to not ask. Once I had them all chained up seperatly, I unchained James and then puched one of the grunts in the face. I then went over to a big burley male teenager in the group. Just a grunt. So I got a rope that held him up, until he was concious of course. Then I smiled. "Hello new puching bag!" My evil smile grew as I began attacking him, adreniline, not haveing worn off yet. The boy woke up with a start and a groan of pain. "So who are you people?" I asked this as I punched him a couple times in the ribs. Another groan. "Stop punching me!" It was mere gasps. "Not until you talk." I punched him again. A shout of pain. "KYLE!!!!!" It was the girl that smirked at me. The blond curled, bobble head. I turned back to him. "Kyle eh? Ok Kyle, either you talk, or I can just keep using you as a punching bag, and then blondie over there." I saw his face go pale white. I grabbed her and hung up next to him. I then punched her pretty bobble head face. "JENNY!! DON'T YOU FUCKING HURT HER!" I smirked. "Aww. Did I make baby Kyle angry?" I said this in a baby voice. "Now are you going to tell me, or do I have to hit blondie again?" He struggled with himself internally for a moment. Then he sighed. "Kyle don't you fucked dare!" Shut it blondie!" I then duck taped her mouth. He gave me a glare. "Well I'm waiting." James merely stood behind me the entire time. "We're Life Jumpers. We are - were here to recrute you." "What are life jumpers and why?" "Life Jumpers are suposively extrodinary teens that are recruted and trained to be spies. We go from one life to the next, spying for the company. And why? You file says you use 100% of your brain, your a genius, you can remeber everything and you are extremley skilled at fighting." I nodded. "Why not just ask me dumb asses. Insead of going Jackie chan and making me whoop your asses, just ask nicely?" "We tried that you said you would call back and didn't." "DUDE! I HAD A FUCKING FAMILY CRISIS! AND BEFORE THAT I WAS EATING JACKASS! OK?! I HAD NO FUCKING IDEA YOU GUYS WERE SPECIAL, I THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST ANOTHER ADVERTISING AGENCEY, SO YOU CAN GO TO HELL ON THAT ONE MOTHER FUCKER!" I was now pacing. The blond looked like she was ready to shit herself. James too. I then noticed that they were all awake and staring. "WHAT?! YOU JACKASSES COULDN'T WAIT FOR ME TO COME HOME AND ASK ME?! NO! I HAD TO FUCKEN WOOP YOUR ASSES! YOUR A BUNCH OF ASS HOLES! YOU CAN FORGET IT NOW BOSOES!" I grabbed them all, two at a time and threw them into the truck outside, still chained up, then put it in nutral and I watched them roll away, then slowly stop at the very bottom of the second hill. I then went back in the house, cleaned everything up and locked everything, James still watching me. "What happened." He actually looked concerend. "Nothing. Nothing at all."

People... -_-

"That is not nothing! What the fuck is wrong?!" "There is nothing wrong!" Each word was said through my teeth. I then pointed at a stool by the counter which he sat on. "Are you hurt?" "No." I knew it was a lie. How? 1. He's really bad a lying and when I touched his side, he winced. "Yeah ok, not hurt my ass." I lifted his shirt up over his head and saw a huge gash in his side. "You know how many times I dreamed about you doing that?" I rolled my eyes. "Shut up you jackass." I then put rubbing achol on his wound and he yelped. I then put hydrogen pyroxide and made sure it was totally and completely clean. Then I took out an injection needle, and a medical needle to stich him up. He went pale. "Aww hell no!" "Yes." "Fuck." "Whatever." I put him in our medical room, yes we have one of those, cause I alaways wanted one. Their cool. I made him lay on the cold metal slab and injected the pain killer. While I waited for it to begin working, I preped everything. "Hey is it normal if I can't feel anything, like numb?" "Yup." He simply nodded and laid back. I then began to stich him up. Maybe it wasn't motherly intsict? What if it was.... No! I banned that word! I would never fall in love again. He had a sad look on his face. "Your debating with yourself again." It wasn't a question, it was a statement. "Yeah." I finished closing him up and put gauses over it. Then I rapped a bandage around his waist,covering the wound and a little extra. Then I grabbed a sharpie. He looked at me questionily. "I get to sign you fist 'cause I fixed you." He just laughed. I then siged his bandage. 'Get better, damn it! we need ur sarcasm and stuff. :D -April.' He looked down at it and laughed again. Which made me smile and blush just a bit. Then I helped him get up but stole his shirt. "Sorry you have to wait for it to be washed and you have to keep it off so the others can sign it!" I yelled this from the laundry. Actually it was because he had an amzing body, but that's beside the fact. I never said that. Nope never ever. "Are you sure that's why?" His voice was right behind me. "Yup." I poped the 'p' and walked out going to make dinner. I couldn't beleive that much time had past. "Whatcha want for dinner?" "Something." I turned around and rolled my eyes at him. "Your not much help!" So I took out mac and cheese and made that. So there we were sitting. Eating mac and cheese and talking. Then everyone came through the door laughing and having fun. They all saw me sitting next to James eating and James with the bandage across his midle with my signature and note on it. "WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED!?!?!" Surprisingly it was Danny yelling at us and not Amy. "Some weirdos attacked us and I beat the crap out of them and drove them away." That all I said before going back to my mac and cheese and refiling James plate which he gladly began eating again. They all stood there staring as James and I began talking and jokeing again as if they weren't there and nothing happened. Then Jack sat down next to me on my other side and began eating on his own plate while reading. When I had finished my plate I took out my reeses ice cream and the triple chocalate fude brownie chocalte chip icecream mixing the two in a bowl for all three of us, the others still standing there dumbfounded. I then took out 3 packets of reeses and crumbled them ontop and we began our ice cream feast. After that we put all the dishes in the dishwasher and went upstairs to my room where we laid on the bed, relaxing. James and I talking, Jack reading. Right now, everything felt... right.

Why are people so confusing?!?! >_

As my eyes opened slowly I realized I had fallen asleep. Then I realized their was an arm around my waist, and steady breathing behind me, with slight mumbles. I looked over and saw James, shirtless with his bandage still on. I slid out from under his arm and replaced it with a pillow. I quickly changed into my pajama bottoms and a tang top. Then I sleepily walked downstairs, and the first person I saw was Jack. I pointed at him and said whilst rubbing my eye "You left me all alone with him. What if he did something?" He just shrugged his shoulder. I was too tired to say anything so I rolled my eyes. I saw a plate of pancakes with Reese in it and smiled. "Amy have I told you I love you?" "Yes. Wha.." "Don't ask. I'm not awake up." I made a feeble attempt to wave my hand at her, but arm just kinda flopped. I looked at the clock and saw it was around 12:00. "How the hell did I sleep that long?" "Maybe you were just comfy." "ANNA!" "What? I can have my opinion." So I sat down at the table kind of grumpy and began eating my pancakes with my hands, no fork or knife needed. Then I heard the stairs creek. Shit. Everyone else was here so that meant.... "Hey James!" Damn it Anna! I then threw a pancake at him, which he caught and then turned back to my plate, eating. He plopped down next to me, shirtless. I simply ignored him and when I finished eating, put the dishes in the dishwasher and said "I gotta look at your wound. Common. Amy, can you help?" "Yeah sure." She knew I could do it myself, but I did not want to be alone with him right now. So he sat on the table and I undid the bandage exposing the stitches. He then laid down. His face was completely emotionless, but in his eyes he looked hurt. I have no idea why. "Are you in pain?" "No." A lie. "You lying." He rolled his eyes. "Nice job on the stitches." "Thanks Amy." I then made sure they were all secure and clean, then put a new bandage on and was about to walk out when I heard "You forgot to sign it." I turned around, walked back and put 'April Black - feel better' then Amy signed it and we walked out. He still seemed hurt though. It's not like we're together, it's his fault he fell asleep in my bed. I then walked to my room with Amy and picked out an outfit. I put on my black tee shirt that said 'Bite Me' with a smiley face vampire on it. Then I picked out a pair of jet black skinny jeans, Abby boots and a spiked dog collar. I then took a shower whilst Amy 'stood guard'. When I got out I dried off, then blow dried my hair which took about two minutes. I then brushed both my hair and teeth. After that I got dressed and did makeup which was black eyeliner, and shadow, and bright red lipstick, all of it water and smear proof. I hated the ones that weren't they sucked. Actually all my makeup was water and smear proof. Anyway I then walked downstairs and grabbing my trench coat and walked out the door with Amy by my side.

We walked down the side walk when it began to pour, again. This was getting annoying. I then took off my trench coat and put on Amy, against her wishes. I saw a coffee shop ahead and we bolted towards it. I was completely soaked and Amy was bone dry. Just how I wanted it. I then walked up to the counter. " Two hot chocolates and Two Reese brownies." "Twelve ninety five." I handed the man the money and waited for our orders. Once they were done we sat down and talked. "What happened?" "I told you guys, we got attacked." "No I meant with..." "Nothing, Jack, Him and I were talking and I fell asleep, that's it." She nodded.
No sooner had she nodded that those weird people were standing there again. I sighed. "What do you fuckers want now?" "You know." "Look the only way I'm joining you ass holes is if ALL my friends can join the organisation you fuckers." They frowned. "That's not up to us." "Oh, fucken well then. You can go to hell bitches." They frowned again. I then flipped them the bird and walked back to the house with Amy. As we walked in we sighed in relief that everything was still normal. "Where did you guys go?" Both Danny and James. Holy crap. I was in deep shit. "Coffee shop." We said it at the same time. We then walked upstairs with Anna and talked until we all fell asleep.... why the fuck does everybody sleep in my bed?! I got up around 3:00 Am and carried them each back to their rooms and put them in bed before going back to my bed where I found an unwanted guest. " James what are you doing here? I would like to sleep some you know!" "Why have you been avoiding and ignoring me?" "I'm not, I'm acting like I always have!" He frowned. "No, you haven't. You were being really nice and now your just....." "Look James, I'm tired I want to sleep, get out." He stood up and walked over to me, mere feet away. "No. Not until you tell me what's wrong." "Go.To.Hell." I then tried walking around him, but he grabbed me, spinning me around and slamming me against his chest. "Not unless you go with me." Now it was my turn to frown. "Why the fuck do you care?" "Because we've been best friends, all of us have, since we were born practically! And you always go to everyone else, even Jack, before me, and yesterday you finally opened the door and now you slammed it in my face again!" Suddenly, I felt very, very tired. "Look James, I don't like fighting and I'm tired so...." I then pushed away from his chest and got in bed, pulling the covers over my head, not caring if he was still there or not. Very soon, I was asleep.

Feelings.... they are a pain in the ass!

I awoke to someone ripping the covers off me and bright light shining in my eyes. "What the hell?!" I groaned, I wasn't a morning person. I slammed my pillow over my head, only for that to be taken away too. "GET THE FUCK UP! IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!" I heard Amy and Anna both scream. All I did was groan and try to go back to sleep, which they then dragged me off the bed with a 'Thud!' On the floor. I saw Danny snickering by the door, so I threw a teddy bear at him as I grumpily went and took a shower, brushed my teeth and hair (after blow drying it). Then I tried picking out an outfit, but they forced me to wear a dress. After they left me alone to get ready, I quickly slipped into black skinny jeans and a black shirt that said 'How do I block you in real life?' And black knee high converse. I then applied simple black eyeliner and mascara and walked downstairs where Amy and Anna frowned. "You changed!" "Yeah. It's my B-Day and I am NOT wearing a fuckin dress!" I was then shoved down into a chair at a table where a stack of presents were. "Open them!!!!" I merely rolled my eyes and opened a small square one that was closest to me. I read aloud "From Jack and no it's not a book." I smiled and opened it to see a new spiked collar, only this one had a loop and there was tags that a dog would wear on it. That made my smile bigger. I hugged him and thanked him. Then I opened a roundish one that had holes in the paper. My eyebrows furrowed at that one. "From Danny." I opened the package and a cute rottweiler puppy jumped out at me. I totally melted. "Awwwwwwwwwwwww Oh my god! He's so cute!!! Thank you Danny!" I leap up and gave him a giant hug and a peck on the cheek which made him blush and James scowl. "I'm gunna name you Boo!" I then smushed the puppy to my chest, and he gave me a kiss. Then I reached two packages combined. "From Anna and Amy, with never ending love. Maybe now you'll answer your phone." I opened it and there was the newest I Phone, and I pod touch, both with black cases with skulls on them. I smiled and hugged them both. Thanks guys. Then there was one last present that looked like Danny's did. "From James, as a suck up gift." I snickered at that one. I opened that one and out came a black kitten with white paws and a bright red bow around it's neck. Again I melted. "Awwwwwwwww! Oh my fucking god! Your soooo Cute! I'm gunna name you Cuddles!" The cat laid on my lap next to Boo and fell asleep purring. I gave James a hug and a thank you before sitting back down petting the puppy and kitten who were both cute as hell. Then the stupid ass door had to open again. I turned around mad as hell. I knew it. It was those damn 'spy' people. "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!!!! THIS IS MY BIRTHDAY ASS HOLES!!!!! OUT! OUT! OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" It was a roar that echoed the entire house. They slowly started to back away, but I wasn't satisfied. I walked up and with a large roar I began beating each one of them, only to be dragged away. But I wasn't done. My hormones were in overdrive, and I lunged again, ripping away. This time it took the entire group. Now Jack was pissed cause he had to put the book down and walked up, stomping on ones foot, then kicking them in the face and walking away. I laughed. It wasn't a normal laugh, it was hysterical. "I'm going to kill you all!!!!!!!!!" My smile had turned into a frown and I began to fight against my friends once more. The dog, Boo was staring up and me, and something clicked. I stopped struggling and slowly looked up from the ground and said 4 simple words. "What do you want." I said it with disgust and a snarl on my face.
