I yawned as I woke up. I looked at my clock and growled, it's only 7 in the damn morning. Sighing, I got up and took a shower, getting ready for the day. I walked downstairs and sat at the table, deciding to read a book till Max got up.

When she came in I smiled and said, "Hey, Max. What's up?" She smiled as she stretched and looked in the cabinet for something to eat. "Nothin' much. Can't sleep?" "Yeah, I keep having the strangest dreams but I can barely remember anything when I wake up..." I blinked, placing my book down on the kitchen table, and looked at Max making a face at something in her hand. "What even is that! That's definitely not edible..." I thought while covering my mouth, trying not to gag.

"Mornin' Max." Said Gazzy as he walked in rubbing his eyes, "What's for breakfast?" "Huh?! It's a surprise." I stifled a laugh as Max hides the inedible bowl of goop behind her. "I'll pour juice." Gazzy offers as a very LOUD thud comes from the living room. "ACK! Who moved the table next to the stairs?!" Iggy angrily yells. I burst into a fit of laughter as Max simply glares at me before answering him. I simply go back to reading as my laughter dies down.

"Sorry, Iggy. The staircase just looked so empty." Max told him. "Don't forget I'm blind." He retorts back as he flops down onto the couch causing me to giggle. As Max rummages through the kitchen again, I look up yet again from my book to see Fang walking in quiet as a mouse, right behind Max and startling her. "Huh?... GAH! Fang! Will you quit that?!" Yells Max. "Quit what? Breathing?" He asks sarcastically as he puts his long ass hair in a high ponytail. I, meanwhile, am now laughing my ass off so hard I can't breathe. "Make some noise when you move? You startled me! RIKO! Quit laughing!!" I smacked the table a few times before I finally calmed down, Max rolling her eyes with a huff as Fang gave me a tiny smirk.

As I smile back at him, Iggy gets off the couch and walks into the kitchen. "I'll make eggs. I don't want Max to burn our last frying pan." Iggy lazily said. Max grumbles something inaudible before saying, "Fine. I'll go wake Nudge and Angel.", while stomping off to make a point. Meanwhile, Gazzy finally notices Fang. "Huh? Fang, when did you get up?", He asks. I smirk, "He didn't. He's sleepwalking. It's just an astral projection." I sarcastically say, causing Fang to give me a look before biting his apple and watching Max stomp off.

I smirk and playfully wiggle my eyebrows at him as he notices me, rolling his eyes. As Iggy starts to cook breakfast, Max comes back with Nudge and Angel, fully dressed for the day. "Riko, help Iggy cook please." Max asks as I nod and close my book, handing it to her before washing my hands and helping out.

About 20 minutes later, Iggy and I are done with the cooking, and put the plates on the table as everyone sits down. I sit down in between Max and Fang; with the order being Max, Me, Fang, Nudge, Gazzy, Iggy and Angel at our square wood table. As we're all eating, Angel strikes a conversation with everyone. "I want to go pick strawberries today. They're ripe now." I nod in agreement as Gazzy jumps up saying, "Okay, Angel, I'll go with you!" Before letting out a loud toot. The conversation then goes like this...

"Oh geez gazzy!" Says Max while staring at him in disbelief. Angel holds her nose while scrunching it. "I'm done." Fang says while standing with an empty plate. Nudge simply holds her nose while glaring at Gazzy. "Gas... mask!" Iggy sarcastically acts out, holding his nose as well. "Sorry!" Gazzy apologizes. "I've smelt worse..." I simply stated as Max proceeded to smack the back of my head, causing Nudge and Angel to giggle.

"Yeah, Angel. I think the fresh air would do us all good. I'll go too." Nudge points out as the rest of us finish eating. "We'll all go. How's that?" Max says while smiling at Angel. "Thanks Max." Angel says, smiling back. "Yay!" Gazzy cheers as Nudge smiles, Fang nods, and Iggy gathers plates for the sink. I nod in agreement and finish eating, helping take the rest of the plates to the sink and washing them quickly, getting totally soaked in the process...

"Hey!", Max calls from the doorway causing me to look at her and sweat drop, "Get changed so we can go, ya Dumb Dumb." Max smirks. I sigh as I look down, finally realizing that I'm soaked. "Oops, sorry. I'll try not to take that long." I said and went upstairs to my room, grabbing a spare change of clean clothes before going into the bathroom and quickly washing up. After I finished, I walked out wearing a red elbow sleeved shirt paired with blue jean short shorts; NOT booty shorts!; knee high socks and sneakers. I then quickly put my hair up in a ponytail before running back downstairs to the living room where everyone was waiting for me.

"Okay, all done! Sorry for the wait!" I said as they all looked at me. Gazzy snickered, Fang smirked, Nudge giggled, and Angel smiled as Iggy looked at a wall. Max, however, raises an eyebrow. "What?" "Your hair is up like Fangs." Gazzy told me. "What? This? Naw, it's just a fashion statement!" I said sarcastically. "Let's go!" I yelled, causing laughter from my family.

As we're walking to the patch of strawberries, Gazzy jumps into the air and yells, "Woo-Hoo!". I smiled along with the others as we finally arrived, getting started with picking the strawberries. Since Nudge and Fang were together, Max and Angel were together, and Iggy is close to Nudge and Fang, I decided to stick with Gazzy. "Riko, watch this!" He says a few minutes after we get there, listening in on Angel speaking to Max.

"If you make cake... I can make strawberry shortcakes." Angel tells Max, who nods in return. I stifle a laugh as Gazzy motions for me to keep quiet. "Yeah, that'll be the day when Max makes a cake. I'll make it angel." Gazzy says, mimicking Iggy's voice. Instantly, Max jumps up, "Oh, thank you! Ok, I'm not a fabulous cook. But I can still kick your butt and don't you forget it!" Max yells as Iggy shakes his head. Gazzy and I burst into a fit of giggles as Max swerves in our direction. I instantly shake my head with my hands up and point at Gazzy.

"Was that you?" Max asks Gazzy angrily. "...KKKH!" Gazzy makes a weird noise. "How many times have I told you not to play jokes mimicking others?!" She yells as she shakes him around. Everyone laughs as Max looks at me. "Ack! But it's fun!" Gazzy complains. "And you!" Max points at me, "How many times have I told you NOT to egg him on!" Max yells at us as everyone laughs. "Better noises from that end..." Nudge states as everyone is still laughing.

Suddenly, Angel screams, startling everyone. That's when I noticed we were surrounded by Erasers. As everyone pulls their wings out, Max yells, "Erasers!". Angel then screams "Max!", and runs away from the Erasers, only to be grabbed and stuffed into a bag while screaming. "Angel!" Max and I screamed, getting up to run over to her.

Suddenly, I'm not feeling too well, was it something I ate?? As there are multiple screams, I get really dizzy and fall to my knees, and end up puking something totally unrelated to what we had for breakfast. Nudge and Iggy end up rubbing my back before we're grabbed by Erasers and held in place. As I finally stop puking, I look up to see Max standing in front of a specific Eraser. My eyes go wide, 'Wait... is that Ari?!' I think with my mouth wide open. He then starts talking.

"Max, good to see you again. You look like crap. You always acted so much better than everyone else... so I have to admit this cheers me up." I wince as I start to get a really big headache. "Who are you?" Max asks, getting up. "You don't recognize me. I guess I've grown some." Ari said, stating the obvious. Max's eyes widened, "Jeb's son... Ari? But you're only seven years old!" Max exclaimed. Ari laughs maniacally before punching Max to the ground. I struggle to stand as she coughs, everyone else yelling her name out. As my headache worsens, Ari kicks her in the arm and she screams in pain before looking at Angel with a look of panic in her eyes. My eyes widen and close as my headache gets even worse.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME!!
