ABBY:
Hey JT come sit with us. These are my friends: Laicee, Jordyn, Alex, and Kevin.
JT:
Thanks for letting me sit here. I didn't really know where I would sit if you didn't let me sit here.
abby:
No problem.
LAICEE:
So where did you come from?
JT:
I moved from out of town
laicee:
That sounds cool...
in the hallway after lunch
abby and Laicee leave lunch together and go to a unused floor in school. the school had lost many students due to the economy and many of the students had left so the school no longer uses many of the floors, the empty class rooms are always a safe place to talk or have fights with out the teachers finding out. abby and Laicee use an empty hallway on the third floor one that hasn't been used in months.
LAICEE:
I don't like her being with us.
ABBY:
I think she is cool plus she looks like she needs some friends.
LAICEE:
Well if you say so I will be nice, but if she tries to replace me...
ABBY:
Chill it you don’t even know JT don’t be so judgmental.
LAICEE:
Fine, ill be good..

JT doesn't do work she gets F's on all her assignments
Teacher:
JT can you come here for a moment I need to talk about your grade. It seems to me that you have not been doing well in school. Are you having a hard time adapting to the new school? i know some good tutors who can help you.
JT:
I'm fine, it's not the school it's the teachers all they want to do is control me, including you so why don't you get out of my business! I don't need anyone to take care of me, my friends do that.
Outside class room
Abby:
What was that all about?
JT:
Just another teacher trying to help me. I think that they feel sorry for me because my dad died but I don't need any help from them, besides you and help me with all my problems.
Abby:
That's true besides they tell me that I'm stupid and that I won't amount to anything.
JT:
Your right they are just out to get me I think they want me to fail, I'm not going to listen to them anymore.
Abby:
Hey there's Laicee I think she wanted to talk to you about something with me.
LAICEE:
Hey JT I was noticing that you have something different about you.
JT:
Okay?
Abby:
It's not a bad thing I'm different too. We all have something special about us. Like I can read minds and Debbi can see the future.
JT:
Your crazy no one can do stuff like that.
LAICEE:
How do you know as far as I can tell you are better than both of us. I've noticed that you will dream and a week later it will come true.
JT:
Well, if you say so I guess your right. There is a lot of things that happen that I cant explain and I'm pretty sure that sometimes I swear I can hear what the teachers are thinking rather then what they are saying.
LAICEE:
So do you want to join our group? We are committed to finding others like us and you have all the qualities we are looking for.
JT:
I don't want to loose you guys as friends so I guess I will. Its crazy but you are like my sisters and I don't think I could live without you helping me get through high school.
Abby:
To me you are my sister and I can feel that you will be much more.
LAICEE:
well we can do the rituals to make you our permanent sister this weekend.
JT:
That sounds cool.
Inside JT's house- night time
JT goes home and opens the door the house is pitch black and it seems as if no one is home she has a single couch in the middle of the living room that is filthy due to the many times her mother had puked on it. the carpets are dirty because they don't own a vacuum and a small TV sits on the floor with a hole near the top of it because her mom had thrown a bottle at it. the kitchen is part of the small 2 bedroom house and a shabby fridge sits by a kitchen sink full of dishes and any counters they had are full of bottles of beer. a small wooden table sits in the kitchen it has seen better days: all the chairs are mismatched and there are holes all over it from her mothers boyfriends carving their names into it.
JT:
Mom I'm home
No answer JT goes in her room and shuts the door she knows no one is ever going to answer because her mom is always at the bar or passed out. She pulls out her homework planning to do it but decides to go back out. The phone rings.
JT:
Hello?
Jake:
Hey JT its Jake I was wondering how you were doing so I found your number to give you a call.
JT:
Hi, I have been good this new school is great. I have new friends here who take care of me. We are almost like sisters. We do everything together.
Jake:
that's really cool, I'm glad you found someone to hang out with I know you don't connect well with others.
JT:
Yeah I have a lot of fun. We are even in a new group called the other side. All of us have something special that we use to get what ever we want.
Jake:
That doesn't sound right JT you shouldn't believe that you can do stuff that isn't real you might get hurt.
JT:
Don't tell me what to do! You are just like the teachers everyone thinks that they can just tell me what's best for me. But only Abby and Debbi know what's good for me!
Jake:
Well I'm sorry that we had to be like this maybe when I have time Ill visit you and see how you are doing.
JT:
I don't need a babysitter I'm perfectly fine on my own. Besides my mom is already getting better, she doesn't even drink as much.
Jake:
Don't lie JT, we both know what the doctors said. Your mom is not getting better and she never will. Be careful or else the child services will come get you.
JT hangs up the phone and runs to her room crying. She knows that nothing is going to get better and that Jake was right, he had been the one to take her mother to the doctors and he had been the only one to know that they said her mother might seem to get better but shoe would always go into remission and start the drugs again JT always knew what was happening but the truth hurts too much so she acts like nothing is wrong. she calls Laicee up on the phone
JT:
Laicee?
LAICEE:
Yeah what's up JT?
JT:
I'm ready to be apart of the group with everyone else. I want to see what's going to happen I don't want to be alone anymore.
LAICEE:
I understand JT and remember that we are all here for you. I can feel that you are worried calm down and ill help you.
JT:
When can I join?
LAICEE:

JT:
Sure.
LAICEE:

int. class room after school.
all the members of the group are sitting in dark clothing with paint on their faces.
Kevin:
hey JT your finally going to join us huh?
JT:
yeah i want to be part of your family. so what do i have to do?
LAICEE:
It's easy, all you have to do is cut your hand as well as ours and feel the pain. Then I will touch my hand to yours and Abby will do the same.
JT:
seriously? that a little bit crazy.
Kevin:
i promise it wont hurt that bad. we have all done it before.
JT takes the knife and pulls it across her hand she gasps as her blood spills. She then grabs Abby's hand and pulls the knife once more. Then does it again with Laicee . They then touch hands letting the blood join them. the rest of the group join in.
JT:
i don't feel so good you guys i kinda feel sick. i don't like seeing blood.
LAICEE:
It is necessary unless you want to never be apart of us. here drink this it should make you feel better.
JT then takes the bottle and tips the contents into her mouth. She chokes at the rancid flavor and spits it out.
JT:
what the hell lace! you know i don't drink that's not cool.
LAICEE:
hey what are you doing that's the good stuff.
JT:
i don't care not only are we all underage but i told you i don't drink not now not ever.
ABBY:
come on jt just take a drink it will be fine besides it will make you feel better.
JT:
fine i guess it cant hurt me.
she takes the bottle and drinks and her friends join in.
