"He wouldn't!"Anthony said watching the game unfold. "He would!"Jesse replied estatic standing up and cheering "He won't!"Anthony cried covering his eyes then looking back up. "He is!"Jesse said punching the air and screaming.
What they were talking about was the football game Ashton and Kevin were playing. Out in the park. They were of course talking about how Ashton was going for a touch down trying to get past Kevin.
"He's crazy!"Antony yelled standing up and jumping. "He's brillant!"Jesse yelled pushing Antony out of the way as he ran to keep up with the smaller of the two players.
Ashton had on a football helmet, from his highschool, it was black with a yellow stripe with a yellow jacket on the side. Kevin had the same one, only an older version. Ashton was running down the make shift field they had trying to score a touchdown. Today, if the boy would have stopped you would have seen a tight grey long sleeve shirt under a black football jersey with a yellow three on the back. It also had a yellow stripe on the sleeves going from back to front. On the boy's legs were a pair of black cargo's held up by a lime green belt. Over the lime belt was a black rainbow studded belt going at an angle for show. On his feet, were a pair of black vans with hot pink laces. Ducking down he was about to throw himself to the ground but Kevin grabbed him around the waist throwing him back on the ground. "God damn it Ashton, what a stupid move!"Kevin said grabbing the football from his hand and walking back to the middle of their football field trailing behind was a bruised Ashton.
"No! He was going to make it!"Jesse cried rubbing his face and walking back to were the middle of the field was, only he was on the side lines. "Yes, he didn't make it!" Antony cried cheering. The reason these two were so caught up was they were betting. Jesse on Ashton winning, and Antony on Ashton loosing.

"It's just for two hours. Deal with it, Tor." "Ugh. Can't they just leave me at home? Or...let me roam the city myself?" "Yes. You. A thirteen year old. You can handle yourself on the street--oh wait, you can't!" "Fine."
The shorter of the girls crossed her arms across her gray clad chest, a pouty look settling upon her innocent face. Zanna groaned. Why did her sister have the ability of being so fricking cute? She couldn't stay mad at her for more than a couple of minutes. Lucky little kid. If only Zanna was that cute.
"Well where would you like to go, then?"
The younger Arquett smiled, obviously pleased. "Park, please?" she asked. Ahh yes, the politeness had returned. Good. "Mkay. It's right there," Zanna replied, pointing to the area with a couple of people running around playing what looked to be football. Or something similar to it at least.
"Zanna?" "Mhm?" "I'm glad they made me hang out with you." Aw. Cute moment. Tori, Zanna's sister, had them every so often. When she let her guard down. When she stopped acting like the age her intelligence was, and just acted the age she was. "Me too, actually." SISTERLY BONDING! How cute.
As for clothes, Tori wore a black shirt with the image of a blue dove beneath a gray hoodie. The hoodie had on it a very detailed tiger along with the word strength. She, like her sister, wore jeans, but they weren't too tight to her body. They fit her loser, and didn't show off any shape...which was good, considering she barely had one. Zanna wore a cream colored shirt with long sleves and a pattern of red and blue bows. Her legs were covered in a pair of skinny black jeans, and on her feet was a pair of old slip-on blue and black Vans. She didn't wear a coat because she didn't think it was very cold today. Plus, she planned on chasing her sister around, which would warm her up even if she was freezing. [/size][/color]

"No No No! Nein! Kevin stop him!"Yelled Anthony as he watched Ashton break free and start down the field for their make shift goal. "Yes! Ash go for it!"Jesse yelled grabbing two helmets on the ground and throwing one to Anthony who caught it. Jesse put on his helmet and ran out tackling Kevin to the ground. "Aw, crap!"Antony said putting on his helmet and taking off the black hoodie he had and ran after Ash tackling him down right as he hit the goal line. Wiggling free Ash got up ball in hand. "Goal! Goal!"Ash said running back down and jumping onto Jesse's back waving the ball in the air.
"Whats the score?"Anthony called to Ash who had slipped off of Jesse's back and had lined back up in the middle of their field. "Six to nine, you two have nine."Ashton said getting behind Jesse and getting ready to catch the ball. "Two fourty two blue hike!" Ashton didn't know exactly what to yell, he just yelled something that made a poem and caught the ball. Faking left he ran right watching as Jesse was tackled by Antony leaving Kevin on his heels.
From his postion on top of Jesse Antony laughed. "Get him Kevin!"He yelled slipping off and pulling at his black shirt, skin tight almost. On his legs were tan cargo's held up by a hot pink belt. On his feet were vans, with lime green laces. "Run Ash!"Jesse yelled slipping out from Antony and running trying to reach Kevin, but coming to late for Kevin wrapped a arm around Ash and threw him to the ground the ball though, never left Ash's hands as he clutched it to his chest as if it was live or death.

Zanna moved toward the group of people playing with the ball and tried to discern if she knew them or not. She didn't manage to get too close, though, because Tori had called her name, so she had to turn around.
"I wouldn't get too close to them. They might tackle you," she said, a chidlish smirk spreading across her face and an almost mischevious twinkle in her blue eyes. Yep. The lucky girl had gotten their mother's blue eyes while Zanna'd been stuck with her boring brown ones. She supposed that it was just her luck that fate dealt Tori both the intelligence and the blue eyes, but she eventually got over it.
"I was just trying to see if I knew them..." Okay. So this probably looked a little weird. A 13 year old reprimanding an 18 year old? But alas, most people that saw them didn't know that the younger girl's IQ was waaaay higher. "Let's just go swing, then?" Zanna suggested. "Or something?" [/size][/color]

Ashton broke away from the football group taking of his helmet and throwing in onto the ground with a 'thud' "I'll be back in a bit!"Ash called over his shoulder taking his jersey off and throwing it on the ground also as he walked to a cooler set up with a couple of chairs and bags the boys had set up when they came here. Pulling the cooler open he grabed a coke tapping the lid before he opened it and then sipping at it. "Hey, toss me a coke!"Anthony yelled he was helmetless, as he had also dropped his helmet on the ground. Ashton nodded bending down he grabed another coke shutting the lid and tossing it to Anthony who caught it tapping the lid also he opened his holding it out as it fizzed up and then sipping at it. "Lets leave them to tackle each other and die, while we play some catch, take a break, eh?"Anthony asked picking up a base ball and walking to a clear spot throwing the baseball to Ashton who caught it in one hand. "So whats with you betting agaisnt me? I'm a better football player, everyone knows it."Ash said throwing the ball back. "You were, but he's bigger and fatter than you, I'm just guessing he'll be able to keep you away."Ant said shrugging and tossing the ball back harder than Ashton could catch. Ashton chased the ball down seeing Zanna as he did. "Hey Zanna!"Ash said picking up the ball and waving before running back to Ant throwing the ball causing Ant to have to jump up and catch it.

Zanna waved a hand, grinning softly, while Tori simply looked scared and creeped out by the fact that some random boy had just talked to them. Glancing over to the 13-year-old, Zanna couldn't help but chuckle and smirk. She looked so taken aback--it was funny. To her, at least.
Fighting off some more laughs and giggles, she managed to say, "Tori, hon, I know him. No need to look like a deer in the headlights."
Tori looked away in the typical 'Pshh. Like I did that' sort of way, then started laughing as well. "I'm a little too paranoid, huh?" she asked. Truthfully, Zanna nodded. "You gotta just loosen up sometimes. That was Ashton, by the way. I'm sure all the other Omega Sea boy's are over there too. Omega Sea's a band. They rock. If you guys come back any time soon, remind me to take you to a show of theirs, okay?" she asked, glancing down. "Kay." [/size][/color]

Ashton had yelled something about Zanna causing Anthony to look up from his place on the ground on his back. "Hey Zanna!"Anthony said waving and ducking as Jesse ran over. "Holy cow!"Anthony yelled as Kevin bull dozed his way to Anthony. Jumping up Anthony ran past Ashton sprinting to a tree and jumping onto a branch climbing into it and to the other side jumping down next to Jesse and running off. "Ek!"Ashton squealed this as Kevin ran head long for him. Ashton ran to the left rushing past Antony who had been put into a head lock and pushed to the ground laughing. Ashton for one wasn't in the mood to get the shit beat out of him. "I'm injured! I'm the baby!"Ashton said dancing around Kevin trying to put him in the mood to beat Antony up more. "Sing and maybe I'll change my mind!"Kevin said laughing as he picked Ashton up throwing him over his shoulder like a fireman. "Hey Zanna, ignore our mindless beating of the youngest members, its a ritual."Jesse called laughing as he let Antony go. "Ritual what ever!"Anthony said throwing a snowball and him. Ashton fell to the ground with a 'thud' as Kevin dropped him to the ground and turned around motioning for Jesse to come join him at their little 'campsite' leaving the two younger boys to fix themselfs up. Ashton ran a hand through his bright light blue hair fixing the white parts so that they didn't underlap with the blue.

For the second time, Tori looked afraid of the boys. It wasn't, though, like she could just toss her paranoia out the window. For one, she didn't have a window with her, and for two, she just wasn't like that. You can't just take a part of yourself and throw it out. Not how it works.
"Hehe. They're not going to hurt you, Tori. It's a guy thing. Haven't you seen the way guys screw with each other? It's just the way they are," Zanna said, ruffling the girl's hair and recieving a rather icy glare. About ten seconds later, though, she received a make-up hug. Today was a really good day. "Ritual," she repeated softly, rolling her eyes. [/size][/color]

Anthony got up walking over to Ashton who was holding his wrist. Bending down next to him he gently took the hand from him and pressed on it. "Ow!"Ashton yelled pulling his wrist back. "Put your splint on."Antony said pulling the split from his pocket and handing it over. "Nice going you two, you might have just killed his wrist again!"Antony yelled causing the other two to look over and shrug. When Ashton was finished splinting his wrist he looked up at Anthony with that. 'Well, what are you waiting for, hug me and make it all better!' face. Anthony rolled his eyes pulling the boy up and laughing. With the other two gone, Ash and Ant were a considerably lot calmer. "Sorry about that."Ashton said pokeing his arm and getting his hand slapped bye Ant. "What are you trying to do? Cause it to hurt?"Ant asked laughing softly. Ashton shrugged. "The splint, its all, poofy soft, I enjoy pokeing it."Ash said nodding his head to a beat. "We're, the youngest, of our band, or the youngest boys, so they take the time to torture us.."Antony was cut short as Ashton chimed in with a "Just cause they're twenty three and twenty four they think they're all big and bad." with that Ashton huffed quite childishly crossing his arm and tossing his head to the side causing his hair to get out of his eyes.

"You guys--well Antony--are pretty fun to pick on you know," Zanna pointed out, gently nodding her head. "So it's not too shocking that they like to do it as often as possible. And. You know, their older-ness is just another reason to pick on you. Sometimes I pick on Tori," she said, gesturing to the girl who stood partially hidden behind Zanna.
Oh yea. Tori. She should introduce her, huh? "Oh yea. This is Tori. She's my sister," she said, again gesturing to the girl. Smiling smally, Tori waved and pulled herself out of behind Zanna. "Tori. This is Antony," she pointed to him, "And Ashton," she pointed to the other boy. "Nice to meet you," Tori said softly, nervous smile still perched on her face. [/size][/color]

"We are not!"Antony said protesting but looking defeated at the same time. "You know what, just for that Zanna, just for that we'll get you back!"Antony added sticking his tongue out. "Tori, I'm so sorry that you have Zanna for a sister."Ashton said looking serious for a moment before he went into a fit of giggles and ended up back on the ground. "Speaking of feeling sorry for a sibling. I'm sorry I call you my brother."Antony said. "Nice to meet you Tori."Anthony said nodding to her before pulling Ash back onto his feet. Anthony was about to say something but Ash got it out faster. "What are you two doing today?"Ashtong smiled at Anthony as he said this, with that look of 'I got it first!' on his face. "I shouldn't have let you get that coke, you're way to hyper."Anthony muttered rubbing his eyes. Ashton giggled as he reached up taking out his contacts causing his eyes to go back to that dull brown color instead of the brillant blue. Putting the contacts in their case he put on his glasses pushing his hair out of his eyes.

Zanna nodded insistently. At the statement about having Zanna as a sister, Tori couldn't help but laugh as well. "She is quite a pain sometimes, but she's my pain," she replied grinning up at her sister. Again, it sounded as though she were the older of the siblings, but she was prettymuchagenius. The girls had an excuse for their reversed roles. And plus, Zanna tended to need advice more often. Eighteen year olds generally had more problems than thirteen year olds. That's just the way it was.
"Our parents went off to do something or other," Zanna said simply, "And left Tori with me. And she wanted to come here. Sooo here we are."
Tori smiled again at the coke comment and glanced sideways at her sister once more. She was remembering the time, when Zanna had still lived at home, that she'd drank a twelve-pack of soda...all in about 20 or 30 minutes. To say the least, it had definitely not been a very pleasant sight. Amusing, but not pleasant. [/size][/color]

"I'm surprised you agree with me, but I know what you mean, no matter how much of a stupid boy he can be, he's my stupid boy and no one elses... Okay maybe Cats, but only by way of her being your girlfriend."Anthony said looking at Ash and laughing as he did a jig. "Tori, today is your unlucky day, unlucky because you caught up with, me, Ash, Kevin and Jesse, the four boys of all boydom.. If thats a place. Luckly though, you came with Zanna, who pretty much makes Kevin and Jesse run away because they have it in their mind that she can beat them up..."Ant said laughing as Ashton said "Wonder where that came from."Ashton said pointedly glareing at Ant who looked away rubbing the back of his head.

Tori raised an eyebrow, listening to what Ashton was saying. "Zanna? Zanna doesn't beat people up..." she said, her voice soft and the comment made beneath her breath. She didn't want any one to hear it, but knowing her luck, they would. You see, the Arquetts weren't really the most lucky family in the world. In fact, they were quite unlucky...but that's a completely different story.
"Wait. Why do they have the distorted thought that I would beat them up?" Zanna asked, looking pointedly at Antony just as Ashton had. "What did you tell them?" she asked, a slightly amused smirk on her face. Tori leant against her sister, waiting for the answer as well. It would be hard to convince anyone that Zanna could beat them up, but she supposed if they were insistent enough, it could happen. [/size][/color]

Antony turned his back on them one hand on his his hip the other scratching his head as Zanna pointedly looked at him along with Ash. "I didn't tell 'em nothin'."Ant said laughing as he thought about it. "He told him you were a teacher in a karate school or something, well past a black belt."Ash said laughing as Ant stopped and giggled. "It was more like, along the lives you were a fith degree black belt and were teaching karate classes, that you had mastered it and all."Ant said coming back over running a hand through his hair then shaking his head laughing. "Then I said you'd beat up anyone that beat me or Ash up so now they sorta, don't want to get kicked and beaten down. So they hide."Ant said nodding quite pleased he had come up with such a lie. "I'm surprised they believed it."Ant said truthfully shrugging with a smirk playing on his lips. Ashton was sitting on the ground laughing at them. "You idiot!"Ant said.
