Team Friendship vs Team Popular

## Summary

Jessica and Kendall create a team, Team Friendship. Alyson and Nevaeh have a team, called Team Popular. What will happen, since they are rival teams?

## Story

"There's Alyson, flirting with Trevor as usual," Nayah frowned. Jessica and Kendall nodded. At their lunch table were Nayah, Jessica, Kendall, KC and Jax. They were not huge fans of Alyson and her group of friends, her team, as she put it. Nayah and Trevor liked each other, but Alyson always tried to get Trevor to like her more than Nayah. Jessica also liked Trevor, but secretly.

"Alyson's mean," KC whispered.

"I know, but she's my sister," Kendall sighed.

Nayah started laughing, like something had come over her.

"Nayah likes Trevor.'' Alyson teased.

"Sis, you're always trying to steal him away from Nayah," Kendall scolded her sister. Alyson shrugged and walked back to her table. Her whole group was sitting there.

"She's mean," Nayah whispered. "But Ally doesn't know that Trevor doesn't like her."

"I think she already knows, sorry." Jessica said.

''Jax, can I have the chocolate bar?'' Nayah asked. Jackie nodded and passed it to her. Suddenly, Trevor walked by their table. Nevaeh and Alyson pursued him. Nayah felt kinda upset, because she knew Ally and Nevaeh were trying to steal him away from her. "Trevor," Nayah called out.

''Yeah?' What's up, Nayah?'' Trevor asked, playing it cool.

"Hey Trev," Nevaeh interrupted. "We need to tell you something." Ally nodded, saying, "You can talk to Nayah at recess."

Trevor shrugged, giving Nayah a small smile and left with Ally and Nevaeh.

At recess, Jessica, Alyson, Nevaeh and Leah were playing four square. Nayah sat on a bench with Jax, KC, and Kendall. Trevor approached them. "Nayah..I need you to meet me at the movies at 3.''

"Okay," Nayah answered immediately.

"Can't we come?" Jax and KC asked.

"Sorry, but this is for just Nayah."

"Okay, Trev." Nayah replied. Suddenly, Alyson and Nevaeh came. "Want to play four square?"

"Okay, but don't try to spike me out!" Nayah said. She joined them in the game.

''Nayah...Someone needs you.'' Jax said.

"Not right now, okay?" Nayah said, kind of distractedly. Trevor served the ball into Ally's square and Ally spiked it into Nevaeh's. Nevaeh giggled. "At least it wasn't me," Nayah joked and chuckled.

"Good job Nayah," Kendall applauded.

''Nayah...I need your help.'' Chester growled. Nayah sighed. "Chester, this has to wait because if the teacher sees you with me, I'm going to be in big trouble...I'm not supposed to have stuffed animals with me when at school even though she doesn't know you talk and are my babe...I'm sorry, though."

Chester sighed. "You're right. I'm sorry I got mad."

Nayah suddenly noticed Jax sobbing. "I've gotta go, but we can talk later, Chessie.''

Chester nodded. ''Go help Jax.. She needs you a thousand times more than I do.''

Nayah left the game and went to Jax. "What's wrong?"

"It's Ally and Nevaeh....they told a lie about me..." Jax said.

"That's mean!" Jessica declared.

"You know what," Nayah said. "I think we need more people in our group Team Friendship!"

'Hi, Nayah.'' Alexandria giggled. She was a friend of Kendall, but not a fan of Alyson. Some other girls showed up. Their names were Peyton and Corinne and the good news was that they were nice.

"Alexandria, Peyton, Corinne, will you join Team Friendship?" Jessica asked hopefully.

''Of course.'' Peyton replied.

"I will join too," Alexandria added.

"And me," Corinne said.

"Great, so we have KC, Nayah, me, Jax, Kendall, Alexandria, Peyton and Corinne...Oh, and Chester too. I wouldn't leave him out, Nayah," Jessica counted.

"Speaking of Chester, Ally's got him, and she keeps calling him 'babe.'' Jax whispered to Nayah.

''Wait..WHAT?!'' Nayah screeched.

"Sister! Where are you!" Kendall shouted, looking around. She saw Alyson holding Chester with Nevaeh and Leah. "Ally, give him back to Nayah!" Kendall ordered.

Ally sighed. "Fine, here he is. But remember, no stuffed animals in school because you'll get in trouble," she whispered to Nayah as she gave him back.

"Nayah, we can't let the teacher see him, what do we do?" Jessica whispered.

''Chessie...Time to sleep.'' Nayah whispered.

''OK..I'll see ya soon, OK?'' Chessie said as he fell into a deep sleep. Nayah quickly hid him in her backpack. "Good thinking," Jessica whispered.

After school, Nayah went to the movies, just as she promised to see Trevor. Chester came with her as well.

''Hi, Nayah.'' Trevor said softly. Nayah nodded and waved. "What's up?" she asked.

"So," Trevor began before stopping mid sentence because he saw Nevaeh and Alyson in line for tickets. "Why are they here?" Nayah whispered.

'I don't know.'' Trevor said.

"Why are you two here?" Nayah demanded as Nevaeh and Ally got their tickets and headed in their direction.

"We're just going to see a movie," Nevaeh rolled her eyes.

"Hi Trevvie," Ally winked.

Trevor cringed as Nayah began to tear up. "Ally, let's go..." Nevaeh said, pulling on Alyson's arm. But Nayah had to ask Ally something. "Where's your sister?" she asked.

"Kendall's at home with Leah. Why?"

"Doesn't your sister ever tell you that trying to make me feel bad in front of others is wrong?" Nayah asked.

''She did, but I don't care.'' Ally scoffed.

"Ally, let's just go," Nevaeh insisted, dragging her by the arm. Nayah and Trevor got their tickets and headed inside the movie theater. "What movie are we seeing, anyway?" Nayah asked.

''We're seeing the movie Moana.'' Trevor said.

As they watched the movie, Nayah kept thinking about what Ally had said. When Nayah went home with Chester, her mom was in the kitchen, making dinner. Jackson was in his office, working.

"I'm home," Nayah announced.

''Nayah..Shh...I'm on a call," Jackson whispered. Nayah nodded with understanding. "Mom, what's for dinner?" she asked.

"I'm making soup with salad," Diana answered.

"Yay!'' Nayah whispered.

At dinner, Nayah talked about the plan of bringing more students in Jessica's friendship group. "Peyton, Alexandria, and Corrine just joined," Nayah explained.

''That's a good idea, but if those other girls start bullying you, do not let them phase you.'' Jackson advised.

"Thanks Dad," Nayah sighed.

"So, what else happened today at school?" Diana asked.

"Ally and Nevaeh were being mean by talking behind my back and they don't want me to be with Trevor," Nayah told them.

''WHAT?!'' Her parents were shocked.

"They showed up at the movie theater, probably to flirt with Trevor," Nayah looked down.

"Honey, that's life...different people will like the same person...that's just part of life," Diana said quietly.

"But Mom...Nevaeh and Ally don't want me to like Trevor...they say I'm 'stealing' him," Nayah explained.

*''At least you've got me.''* Chester assured her. "Thanks," Nayah smiled.

''Nayah, we love you.'' Diana said.

"If anything happens, you come tell us, okay?" Jackson added.

The next day at school, during lunch, Nayah sat with Jessica, Kendall, KC, and Jax as usual.

*''Nayah, when you feel mad, spell out my name..I'll help when I can.''* Nayah heard Chester say in her head. She had to leave Chester behind this day because of the no stuffed animal rule. However, there was no rule that said no one could have them talk telepathically.

*''Thanks, babe.. I'll tell you everything when I get home.''*

"Team friendship!" Nayah and her friends clinked their water bottles together and laughed. A couple of students from the other tables stared in either confusion or annoyance. Ally and Nevaeh were the most annoyed. Suddenly Jessica saw Trevor walk out of the cafeteria. "You should follow him and see what's up," Jessica told Nayah.

''OK, but what if he's going to the boys bathroom?' I cannot follow him in there.'' Nayah sighed.

''Yeah, you can wait for him though.'' Kendall said.

Trevor was, in fact, by the water fountain, not using the restroom. When he looked up, he noticed Nayah.

"Nayah..I have a crush on you, and my twin brother Trevon also has a crush on Jessica.''

"Trevor...Ally and Nevaeh say I'm stealing you from them...but that's a lie..." Nayah said sadly.

"Are you okay?" Trevor asked.

"I miss Chester. I'm not supposed to take him to school and if I am caught, I'll be in trouble because of the No Stuffed Animals rule. I'm respecting that rule." Nayah explained.

''It'll be OK.'' Trevor assured her.

They walked together back to the cafeteria. They went to their separate tables. "Jessica, Trevor's brother likes you," Nayah whispered. "I thought he liked me," Jax said, feeling confused. Nayah was surprised. "That's odd," Jessica commented.

''Jackie, Trevor's friend likes you and he's super popular.'' Nayah said.

"Oh...okay." Jax replied, uncertain. "I miss Chester." Nayah sighed.

"But you'll see him when you get home," Kendall assured her.

*''Nayah..Your partner called.'' Chester whispered telepathically.*

Nayah sighed. At least she could talk to Chester telepathically..

"Who's your partner?" Jessica asked.

"I have two partners actually: Brett and Tristan." Nayah said. "But it looks like Tristan called. And I'll have to get to HQ as soon as school is out."

At recess, Nayah sat down while the others played. Trevor approached her. But it looked like Ally and Nevaeh were following him.

''Nayah.... There's something I want to tell you.'' Trevor said. "Ally, Nevaeh, you don't need to hear this conversation. Please stop following me."

Ally and Nevaeh walked towards the four square game, but Nevaeh gave Trevor the stink eye. Trevor turned to Nayah.

''Nayah... I am in love with you.. I even have people at HQ who are in love with your friends.''

"Trevor, I don't even know you too well. I have to think about it for a second. I know Jessica and Jax like you too," Nayah said, turning away.

At home, Nayah kept thinking about what she said to Trevor. Diana noticed Nayah hadn't touched her dinner plate.

''Nayah.. Are you OK, sweetheart?'' Diana asked softly. "We're here for you, you know," Jackson added.

''I'm great, but...'' Nayah shook her head. "Nayah, please eat your noodles," Diana said.

Nayah slowly ate her noodles, then Chester felt a teardrop fall on his tail. "Trevor likes me so much and I told him I didn't like him," Nayah explained.

''Aww, it's OK.. You've got me.'' Chester said.

"You've got us too," Jackson and Diana added.

''Thanks for the love.'' Nayah said. "Mom, Dad, can I be excused? I'm going to call Jessica and Kace."

"Sure, go ahead," Diana replied.

Nayah ran upstairs to her room and Chester asked. ''Are you still scared of words with four letters?''

"I suppose." Nayah said, reaching for her phone. She pulled up a video call with Jessica and KC. "Hey, Nayah, Hey KC!" Jessica said on her end. "What's up?" KC asked on her end.

"Can you both come over to my house pronto?" Nayah asked.

''Yeah, but we have something to tell you.'' Kace replied.

Soon, both Jessica and KC arrived at Nayah's. They met in Nayah's room for a meeting. "Jax is mad at you," Jessica whispered. Nayah looked shocked. "What do you mean?'' ''Did I do something?"

"Remember how Jax likes Trevor?" KC asked. "Well, she's mad about how three girls like the same boy." Jessica nodded. Nayah's face saddened.

*''I wish my long-lost partner was in love with me.'' Nayah murmured, not touching her necklace.*

The phone rang. It was Tristan, Nayah's partner, who was at a different school and hadn't seen Nayah over two years.

"Tristan...are you in love?" Nayah asked, secretly deciding it was better than Trevor liked Jax and that Nayah and Tristan would be together, despite being at different schools. "I don't know what to say, Nayah. I may be at a different school, but I miss you." Tristan was saying.

''Can you come over?'' Nayah asked. There was a short pause. Then Tristan spoke. "Yes, I will be right over." he said.

Tristan arrived. "Are you in love?" Nayah asked again. "Well, I wouldn't say I'm in love, but I do like you plactonically," Tristan said.

''Oh.. okay.'' Nayah said. She was hurt, but she was trying not to show it. She didn't want to hurt her partner's feelings like she did with Trevor.

"I mean, we are kids...er, teens after all." Tristan laughed nervously.

"I know," Nayah shrugged.

"Nevaeh and Alyson like Trevor, but they aren't in love, they just don't want anyone else to like him," Jessica explained.

"KC, who do you like?" Nayah asked.

''There's this boy at our school named Jordan, you remember him, right? And I feel different when I'm around him.''

"I've seen him a lot in the hallway. Have you had a conversation with him?" Jessica asked.

"Kind of." KC shuddered.

"Kace...I know that Jordan isn't interested in girls and is more interested in sports," Nayah said.

''Aww.. I really thought I had a chance.'' Kace sighed.

"Kace, don't fret, I have an idea," Nayah said. "Tristan, remember your old girlfriend, Samantha?"

"Yep," Tristan sighed.

''Does she have any other boyfriends?''

"Well, she dumped me for another boy at my school named Levi," Tristan said.

''Kace..I think I have some setting up to do.'' Nayah said solemnly.

"Nayah...." Jessica started.

"It will be okay, Jess," Tristan said. "I'm going to help Nayah."

Kace looked at them hopefully.

*''Nayah....Remember your motto?''*

Nayah nodded. *''Race...to save...Kace!''* she recited. Chester nodded. "I'm going to help KC and Jordan. Maybe if Jordan gets to know Kace, he might start having interest in her."

"Bad news: I know that Ally and Nevaeh crush on him, not just on Trevor," KC frowned.

"Well," Tristan said. "While I may not be at the same school you girls go to, I will help form a plan with you, Nayah."

"Thanks!" Nayah sighed with relief.

''No problem, that's what partners are for.''

"Don't let me down," KC whispered anxiously.

''I won't, bestie.'' Nayah promised solemnly.

"Nayah, since I don't go to your school, I want you and Jessica and your other friends to help with the plan. Watch out for Ally and Nevaeh, too." Tristan said.

''OK, we'll update you if anything happens.'' Nayah said. Suddenly, Nayah gasped. "What's wrong?" KC asked.

"I'm worried Ally and Nevaeh will get in our way and mess it all up," Nayah said.

"Kendall and I are going to help, Nayah. We'll make sure Nevaeh and Alyson don't find out," Jessica offered.

''Thanks, girls..Now let's help Kace!'

The next day at school in the cafeteria, Jordan and Trevor and the other boys were sitting together. Nayah, Jessica, Kendall, Jax, Corinne, and KC were at a other table, watching them. "So what's the plan again?" Kendall asked.

Nayah re-explained their plan. "So KC wrote a note last night, addressed to Jordan, asking him if he'd like to play a game with her at recess and we'll see what happens from there."

"I like it!" Corinne said.

''Kace, are you OK?'' Nayah asked, noticing KC looked down. "Oh, yeah, it's just than I'm afraid Jordan will say no," she admitted.

''Don't worry, K.. I made a promise to you and I'm keeping it.'' Nayah said. Suddenly Jordan came over. "KC, I got your note and I'd love to play with you at recess." he said, before turning around and heading back to his table.

"I guess it worked," KC grinned.

''See that, Kace?'' ''Nayah made a promise to you *and* she kept it.'' Jessica said.

At recess, KC and Jordan played hide and seek even though they were teens.

''KC..I see you.'' Jordan laughed. KC was hiding behind a group of students. She ran to him, laughing. "Good job," she said.

"There's something I want to tell you. I secretly like you. I just acted like I didn't because my pals would laugh," Jordan admitted.

''WHAT?!" KC was shocked.

''Yeah....So if you want, my friends and I are going to the movies later and you and your friends can come.'' Jordan suggested.

"Well...sure. But...but I don't know if my friends would want to go," KC said.

''Kace.... We'll definitely go with you.'' Kendall said.

"Thanks, but please don't," KC said quickly.

"What about Team Friendship? We should stick together," Nayah said.

"I'd rather not have you go," KC said and she and Jordan walked off. Her friends looked sad.

*''Looks like it's clue time, Nayah.'' Chester whispered telepathically.*

When Nayah got home, her parents saw how upset she was. "Nayah, what's wrong?" Diana asked.

"KC didn't want me or Jessica or Kendall to come with her when she was asked to go to the movies with Jordan." Nayah said.

"Well, maybe she just wanted to spend time with him," Jackson suggested.

''Yeah.'' Nayah shuddered.

"Honey, I know you and your friends are growing up. I know that you've known KC since kindergarten, but remember, things change," Diana said.

''I know.'' Nayah looked down.

"Nayah, if KC starts to spend more time with her crushes or boyfriend, you'll always have me to talk to," Chester offered kindly.

''Yeah... But if I lose my best friend, I don't know what I'm going to do.'' Nayah whimpered.

"Nayah, KC wouldn't stop being your BFF," Chester said.

"But what if she sides with Team Popular?" Nayah whimpered.

"What makes you say that?" Diana asked.

''I don't know what I'm going to do if I lose her.''

"Nayah, she wouldn't side with them. She doesn't even like Team Popular." Chester insisted. Nayah took a sip of her water. "What I'm really worried about is KC spending more time with boys and forgetting all about me and my friends." she said.

''That won't happen.'' Chester insisted. Nayah wanted to believe him, but she was worried. Diana and Jackson comforted her.

''KC won't side with them.'' Diana promised. "Why would she side with bullies, anyway?" Jackson asked.

"I know she won't," Nayah said.

A week later, during lunch, KC was sitting with Jordan and his pals. Some of the girls were sitting at the table. Unfortunately, Nevaeh and Alyson were there too.

"Alyson, Nevaeh, both of you need to stop harassing me about Jordan and harassing Nayah about Trevor," KC said.

''Yeah, both of you know that that's bullying, right?'' Jordan questioned.

"Maybe. Maybe not," Nevaeh scoffed. "We don't care," Ally added. KC and Jordan ignored them as they continued to eat lunch. Before recess, KC turned to Nevaeh and Ally and told them if they didn't stop harassing her, she would tell Principal Parker.

''Whatever.''

"Ally!" Kendall shouted for her sister.

''What, Kendall?'' Ally scoffed.

"Stop doing this!"

"Why?"

"Because what you're doing is not right," KC jumped in.

''Yeah, but I don't care.'' Ally retorted. "Neither do I," Nevaeh said. Suddenly, Nayah and Jessica came over to their table. "Leave KC, Jordan and Kendall alone or we're reporting you to the principal's office." Jessica said firmly.

''Nayah.. Now might be a good time to use one of your three wishes.'' Chester murmured telepathically. Nayah secretly had genie pets named Zora and Zane, but only she and Chester could see them.

"Nayah, what are you doing?" Jessica asked. "Just staring," Nevaeh interjected. Nayah ignored her. "I wish that Nevaeh and Ally could see how KC really feels," she said.

''It's wish time!'' Zora whispered as her paw touched Zane's, and the two began spinning around and stopped.

KC turned to Nevaeh and Ally, as if on cue. "Girls, I know you're trying to be funny, but it's actually hurtful, to be completely honest. Ally, I know you only want Trevor to yourself and Nevaeh, I know you want Jordan to yourself. But it's not right." KC sighed.

"Zane, I wish Principal Parker knew what was going on." Nayah whispered.

''It's time for your wish to come true!'' Zane cheered as he spun around twice. Suddenly, Principal Parker walked toward their table. "Nevaeh, Ally, KC, I want to see you three in my office for a bit." he said.

''Oh, man.'' KC gulped. "But you didn't do anything wrong..." Kendall whispered.

KC, Ally, and Nevaeh followed Principal Parker to his office.

''Nayah..Use a wish.'' Kendall whispered.

"No," Nayah whispered sharply. Kendall, Nayah, and Jessica were right outside of the principal's office, listening. They wanted to make sure KC did not get in trouble. "Just because I have one last wish left does not mean I should use magic to help my BFF. This is between her, Ally, Neaveh and Principal Parker."

"So can you tell me what is going on?" Principal Parker asked KC, Ally, and Nevaeh. "Nothing," Nevaeh lied.

''Neveah and Ally have been harassing me and Nayah, and they want us to dump our crushes..'' KC explained. Nevaeh and Ally gaped. "Lie!"

''Nayah..Can you deploy the tiger-cam?'' Zane whispered.

''On it.''

Nayah held the camera and knocked on the door. Principal Parker opened it and Nevaeh and Ally were in shock. KC smiled softly at Nayah. "Principal Parker, I have proof that Nevaeh and Ally are lying." Nayah explained.

"What? No you don't," Ally said.

''Be quiet, Alyson.'' Kendall snarled.

Principal Parker watched the footage on the camera. "Well, Ally and Nevaeh, it looks like KC was telling the truth." Principal Parker said fiercely.

"What'll happen to us?" Ally asked.

"I will call your parents and suspend both of you for three days,"

''Ugh, Nayah..I hate you.'' Alyson snarled as she started hitting her. ''Ally, stop!" Kendall grabbed her sister.

"Fine, then you're both suspended for the rest of this week," Principal Parker frowned, taking Ally and Nevaeh by their wrists and leading them outside.

"Nayah, you okay?" Kendall asked. Nayah nodded. "Your sister is so mean." she said.

''I know.... But I'm sure Mom will deal with her when we go home later.'' Kendall reassured her.

The next day at school, Nevaeh and Alyson weren't there. "They both got suspended for the rest of this week." Kendall said.

"I hope Ally and Nevaeh will stop teasing KC and Nayah," Jessica sighed.

"Maybe it's best that we ignore them if they start up again," KC suggested.

''OK.'' Nayah sighed.

"Bad news, Ally and Nevaeh's team has other members," Jessica said. Three girls from Ally and Nevaeh's team, Amber, Lexa, and Camilla approached them in the hallway. "Excuse us, we're trying to get to class," Amber said rudely.

"We're not even  in your way," Kendall snapped.

''Kendall, chill.'' Nayah whispered.

"Move along, girls," KC said to Amber, Camilla, and Lexa. "We're not even in your way."

"Well, we are in *your* way," Lexa snapped.

*''Nayah.. I know you're thinking what I'm thinking.'' Chester said telepathically.*

"I know. I miss you. I can't wait to see you until I get home," Nayah sighed sadly.

*"You need to stand up to these girls and let them know you're not going to let them boss you or your friends around," Chester said.*

''Look, girls, you think that you're everything, but you're not.'' ''And I'm tired of you bossing me and my friends around.'' ''Maybe if you treat others how you would want to be treated, you would be much happier.''

"Humph," Amber and Lexa said. But Camilla was surprised. "I think we would be much happier, girls," she said.

''Camilla, if you want to join them, you can but we're not.'' Lexa snapped.

Camilla shrugged. Lexa and Amber went inside the classroom. "Welcome to our group, Team Friendship, where we let people join if they're friendly," Nayah welcomed her.

''Thanks, Nayah.. Also, Chester told me to tell you that your partner called you again.'' Jessica said.

"Here, you text him," KC pulled out Nayah's phone.

Nayah, this is Tristan. Chester was taken. You have to come over at HQ after school, the text read.

''WHAT?!'' "Not again!'' Nayah wailed.

Right after school, Nayah, KC, Jessica and Kendall arrived at the HQ. Trevor was there. "Didn't I tell you I work here?" he asked Nayah.

Nayah smiled. "You did."

"Where is Chester? He has a tracker on his collar, you know," KC said.

''He's with a girl named Catherine, a nineteen year old," Tristan said.

"Okay, where are they heading?" Kendall asked.

''They're headed to the ice cream shop, and listen to this.'' Tristan said as he held up an audio recording.

''Nayah... If you want your boyfriend back, you have to spell the word you hate and send a picture of you spelling it to me.. And if you don't, I'm going to drop him into a fro-yo machine.'' Catherine's voice said over the audio recording.

''Nayah, are you all right?'' Tristan asked, seeing his partner's worried look.

''No, Tristan, I'm not alright.'' Nayah confessed as she started to cry. "I'm worried about Chessie..."

''Don't worry, we'll find him, I promise,'' Tristan said reassuringly.

"I hate to say this, but I'll have to lie to Catherine to get him back," Nayah said.

"Wait, what?" Kendall was shocked.

"What do you mean?" Tristan asked Nayah.

''I'm going to tell her that Chester and I broke up, even though that's not true.'' Nayah explained.

"Nayah, how would Chester feel before he finds out you lied to Catherine?" Jessica asked.

"I don't know."

They walked to the Ice Cream Parlor and found Catherine with Chester inside.

"Hello, Nayah.'' Catherine smirked.

"Give him back, Catherine. He doesn't belong to you," KC said.

"And why should I?"

''Because he belongs with Nayah, that's why!'' Kendall scolded.

Catherine started running out of the building. The team went after her. "Stop right there!" Her mother, Patricia, stopped her.

''Aww, Mom, can I keep this stuffed animal?'' Catherine pleaded.

"Mrs. Fannin," Nayah said to Patricia. "She stole him from me. He's mine."

''How dare you, Catherine!'' Patricia screamed at her daughter. "That was a very bad thing to do. Give him back to her."

"No, mother, she is lying," Catherine said innocently.

''Nayah, show her the video.'' Kace whispered. They had secretly taped the whole situation. Still Catherine denied it. "They are liars," she told her mother.

''If anyone's lying, it's you.'' Patricia said firmly. Catherine argued. "No, I don't always lie..."

"Well, you're right, but you did just lie right now," Patricia noted.

''Nayah... Help me!'' Chester screamed.

"Calm down," Nayah muttered, freeing him from Catherine's grip. "Catherine, you are grounded," Patricia said sternly.

''WHAT?! I...No! You can't do that. They're lying to you and I can prove it," Catherine argued.

"Go ahead, then," K said sarcastically.

''Mom, you got Chester for me, and she stole him from me!'' Catherine lied.

"No, I didn't. That is a lie. I never bought you a stuffed dog ever, not even when you were little," Patricia glared.

''Nayah... I miss you,'' Chester whimpered. Nayah hugged him tightly. "You're safe now," she said softly.

"Catherine, you'll never have Chester," Patricia told her daughter.

''Mom, please.. Make her give him to me.'' Catherine begged.

"He is not yours, so no," Patricia answered sternly.

"Mrs. Fannin, thank you," Nayah said, hugging Chester once more.

''No problem, Nayah,'' Patricia said. She and Catherine went home and Catherine was grounded for two weeks.

''Nayah...We have a problem!'' Tristan said.

"What now?" Nayah asked.

"Rita's here," Tristan whispered.

''Uh-oh.. WHY IS SHE HERE!" Nayah asked loudly.

"Hello Nayah," Rita smirked.

''Kace, CD time!''

KC played the CD. It showed Rita with Linda and Catherine.

"So you're working with them?" Nayah asked.

''Yeah.'' Rita snarled.

''Nayah... There's a note, and it says you know what on it.'' Jessica whispered.

"Let me guess, the alphabet?" Nayah winced. KC nodded fearfully.

"And I wrote it!" Rita declared.

''I'd better get to singing,'' Nayah gulped.

"Nayah, you can do it," Tristan said.

'Ummm, I'm gonna call Trevor," she murmured, calling Trevor.

''Hey, Nayah..What's up?''

"Listen, I'm supposed to sing the alphabet but I'm scared to, because I have grammaphobia. I need your advice," Nayah explained.

''Try closing your eyes when you sing it,'' Trevor suggested.

Nayah did as he said. After singing, she said, "Rita, why did you want me to sing the alphabet?''

"I hope you're happy because Xander is right behind KC," Rita whispered.

*"'Run, Nayah!'' ''Hurry!'' Chester panicked. He could feel the energy shifting for Nayah.*

Nayah could f*eel* her cheetah instinct kicking in pretty quickly, so she scrambled up the nearest tree, silently counting to nine. She knew exactly what was going to happen, and she was totally ready. After all, she was in a tree trapped in a knothole. Xander couldn't get to her. Ever. Not in the slightest.

"Hello, babe," Xander said to KC. "Not today!" KC yelled.

"I know you pretend to love KC and then cheat on her," Nayah growled at Xander.

''C'mon, Nayah.'' Xander smirked.

''Chester?''

"I'm here," Chester replied.

"Xander, isn't your girlfriend Alyson?" Kendall asked.

"Yeah..but I dumped her. I'm dating Nevaeh now," he replied.

"You...you're cheating on your girlfriends?" KC asked, surprised.

"Yeah...but I want you," Xander smirked.

''Leave my BFF alone.. Or else,'' Nayah glared.

''What will you do if I refuse?'' X smirked.

''I'll spell it and count out the letters and Gloria will trap you,'' Nayah smirked.

''You're saying that like you will actually do it,'' Xander smirked.

*2, 1, 2, 5,'' Chester whispered.*

*''B-A-B-E.''*

"Nice try, Nayah!" Xander threw his head back and laughed. Gloria sent a huge cage to trap him, but she missed!

"Are you against us, since we are Team Friendship?" Kendall asked Xander.

''No, I'm more mad at the fact that Nayah is dating someone who treats her better than I do which isn't fair,'' Xander growled.

"You cheated on your girlfriends and want KC," Nayah claimed.

"And I'll never love you, Xander," KC said.

"KC, are you okay?" she heard Jordan. "No! She's my girlfriend," Xander hollered at Jordan.

"No, she's not," Jordan said. "She said she'd never love you."

''I want you to be my boyfriend, Jordan,'' KC said truthfully.

"We only went out a couple of times," Jordan admitted.

"But you and I have a lot in common," KC replied.

"Well...okay, we can be girlfriend and boyfriend," Jordan smiled.

"No!" Xander cried, shocked.

''Yes! Jace forever!'' Nayah cheered.

"I'll get back at you, KC," Xander threatened.

At school, one day, KC received a note from Xander in her locker.

"Nayah? Look at this. " Kace sobbed. "What is that?" Nayah asked.

"It's a note from Xander and he says he'll take me away from Jordan..."

"We better tell Principal Parker," Jessica said.

"Hello, babe," Xander came up to them and smirked.

''Glacier, chill time!'' Nayah said softly. The small wolf came and snarled at Xavier. "Nayah...no animals, remember?" Kendall said.

"Don't worry, only we can see him," Nayah smiled.

''Okay, Glacier, you have made your point,'' Xander said, pretending to act scared.

''Glacier, I think it's time for you to use your special superpower.'' Nayah whispered.

Glacier's eyes turned blue as snow started to gush out of his mouth. No one else could see him or the snow, but Nayah, her friends, and Xander could.

''Keep it up, Glaci, you've got this.'' Gracie smiled.

Glacier used the last of his strength and breath to cover Xander in super cold snow.

''Good work, big bro, you got him,'' Gordon praised his big brother.

No one else could see the wolves or the snow that covered Xander, but soon the snow disappeared. The wolves magically went though a portal. KC glared at Xander.

"You know what, I can't believe that note you wrote about Jordan and me and that you'd come after us."

''I'm sorry, Kace,'' Xander said sadly, smirking.

''Uh-oh, not this again,'' Chester said, starting to feel dizzy.

"Okay, Xander, I'm seriously tired of you and the last thing I want is for you to keep pursuing me," KC  said angrily.

''Hello, babe,'' Xavier whispered to Nayah. He had reformed and was now working with the Organization.

''Xavier, now is *not* the time for your cute affections, because your twin is trying to pursue my bestie even though she keeps *turning him down*.'' Nayah explained.

"Xander, stop," Xavier ordered. However, Xander kept ignoring him. Xander leaned in to kiss KC, but she slapped him away.

''Bubble up!'' Nayah said, putting Kace in a bubble so that Xander wasn't able to kiss her.

"Xander, it's time for you to head to class," Xavier growled.

"Fine!" Xander started to go there, but stopped to turn to K.C.

"But this isn't over, Kace."

''Don't call me that,'' Kace growled, hugging Nayah.

''Breathe, K, breathe,'' Nayah was murmuring.

"Only my BFF can call me that," KC said.

"I know, K, I know," Nayah said. Camilla approached them. "Are we going to get more members to join Team Friendship?" she asked.

"Yeah," KC said. "But we try to do that at Recess, okay?"

"Okay."

After school, Nayah had to go to HQ and contact The Organization.

''Hi, Nayah, what's up?'' Beatrice questioned.

"Is there anymore news about The Other Side's new hiding place?" Nayah asked. "Because if there is, KC, Jax, Jessica, Kendall, Tristan and I can help."

Beatrice looked thoughtful.

''There is, and the hiding place is up in a tree and the tree grows purple berries,'' Beatrice told her.

''Thanks,'' Nayah said.

''No problem,'' Beatrice replied.

Nayah and her friends, along with some other agents, showed up at the hiding place and held their laser guns.

''Wait.. Where's KC?'' one of the agents asked. "Here," KC showed herself. She had been behind Jessica and Jax this whole time.

"Okay, Kace...get your gun ready," Nayah whispered to her. Kace nodded and pulled out her laser gun, which shot out pale blue lasers.

''What's that gonna do?'' a familiar voice asked.

Nayah gulped, and so did Kace. Chills ran down both of their spines as they noticed Ursula smirking at them.

''Time to face our fear again,'' Nayah and Kace sighed.

''Hello, Nayah,'' a voice whispered.

Nayah spun around twice, then began running.

''Don't leave me!'' Kace pleaded.

"Nayah!" Jessica and Kendall shouted.

"It was Xander! He's after me now!" Nayah wailed.

"But I thought he played me," Kace said, feeling confused.

"Oh, he plays me too," Nayah sighed.

''Need help?'' Gloria whispered.

"Yes, Gloria, we need you," Kendall said.

"You again?" Xander laughed rudely. "And Kendall, I know about your sister. She's the leader of Team Popular, eh?"

"Of course, but I'm not on her side and she's two years older than me," Kendall protested.

"Xander, stop stalling!" Gloria snapped.

"You're a Doberman," Xander laughed.

"Oh, are you on The Other Side?"

"No, but my parents are," Xander announced as Nayah's necklace turned red with rage because he was lying.

''Nayah, I won't play you again.'' Xavier whispered.

''I know that already, X.'' Nayah whispered back.

''How do we stop Xander?'' Xavier whispered.

''Nixie can help,'' Nayah whispered.

"I'm here," Nixie showed herself by appearing in front of them. "How can I help?"

"So....I want you to distract Xander. Stall him as much as you can. Probably use a lecture," Nayah suggested.

''I got you, bestie." "Cover your ears." Nix giggled, walking over to Xander. Xander smirked.

Nayah covered her ears. She counted to six.

''Babe, stop!'' ''You're acting crazy,'' Nixie yelled.

"Oh yeah? First I liked you, then I liked Alyson, then Nevaeh, and now KC," Xander laughed scornfully.

''Yeah?'' Nixie scoffed, taking a deep breath before saying, ''Well, that's okay, because I'm helplessly in love with your twin!'' She lunged at him and started to punch him hard, but not hard enough for the punches to hurt him to badly.

"Wait.. Nix likes me?'' Xavier murmured.

''She does and she's been talking about you ever since her first day of high school,'' Nayah nodded.

"I thought we had a deal..." Xander began, using an accusing voice.

"No, we didn't!" NIxie snapped. "You were playing me!"

"I did no such thing," Xander said.

"According to this footage, you did," Jessica said, showing him a video of him playing Nixie.

''Nixie, are you okay?'' Xavier asked.

"I'm fine, X," Nixie winked.

"Nixie... you're supposed to be my butterfly! Never mind what Nayah and KC say," Xander said.

'Well, Xander, I've got three words for you,'' Nixie growled, winking at Nayah, who nodded and took a deep breath.

''You and Nix are *over*, babe,'' K said sarcastically. Instead of fainting, Nayah chuckled. She'd been able to get over her fear.

''Nice work, Kace,'' Nayah high-fived her friend.

"Xander, either you stop or we'll have to call your parents. I'm sorry, Xavier, that we might have to do that to your twin," Nixie said.

''It's all good, Nix, he deserves it,'' Xavier scowled.

''Hey, are you okay?'' Nixie asked. Xavier just grunted before nodding.

"If anyone of you guys report me, I'll eliminate one of you," Xander warned.

"No, you won't. Because the police are right behind you," Xavier said.

''Oh, no,'' Xander began to run, but his aunt, Officer Lila, caught him. "You're not going anywhere," Officer Lila scolded.

Beth showed up and turned to Nayah. "Sorry I'm late.. what happened?"

"Xander tried to play Kace," Nayah explained.

''And he failed,'' Kace giggled.

"That's good," Beth said, nodding. "I had no idea that Officer Lila is his aunt."

''Yup, me either," Nayah said.

"Xander is my boyfriend," Ursula sneered.

"Even if he was, he's been arrested now," Jessica said.

"I'll get him back," Ursula frowned.

''Ooh, you two are gonna be all cute and flirtatious,'' KC giggled sarcastically.

''Kace!'' Nayah nudged her friend while blushing because she knew that her best friend's comment was for her. "Don't encourage her!"

But Ursula only laughed. "Oh, I will get him back! You'll see!"

''K, *seriously*?'' Nayah growled.

''Sorry,'' KC apologized. Nayah turned away sadly. Kace went after Nayah and when she caught up to her, she said, "Nayah...I'm so sorry...."

"It's fine, K!" Nayah snapped.

Kace looked at Nayah and sighed sadly. But then, she remembered she could use one of her wishes to make it up to her best friend.

*''I wish my BFF wasn't so upset with me,''*

Then Nayah looked at KC. "I'm so sorry, Kace, for getting so upset. I was just really mad that you encouraged Ursula to get Xander back."

"Well, now we have to go stop Ursula from getting Xander back. Let's get to the courthouse now!" K said.

"We'll come," Beth and Jessica and Kendall said.

"Okay, let's go," Nayah said, standing up.

''Glacier, are you thinking what I'm thinking?'' Gracie smiled.

''Are we gonna surprise Nayah and her teammates again by showing up even though she didn't say her special call AKA let's ride?'' Glacier smiled.

''Yup, and they're coming, so go into camouflage mode and hide behind that bush,'' Gracie told him.

"Okay," Glacier said.

Nayah and her friends went to the courthouse where Ursula was trying to get Xander to run away.

''Hi, Nayah,'' Two voices whispered.

"Hey, Sophie and Spencer," Nayah whispered. The two foxes emerged inside the courthouse. "We can help get Ursula away," Spencer offered.

"That would be great," Beth said. "But Xander could try to escape on his own."

''Not if he's outnumbered,'' Sophie giggled, nudging her twin.

''Time to call the wolf pack!'' Nayah said, summoning Glacier, Gracie and Gordon.

"Did someone call for us?" Glacier joked.

"Distract Ursula and Xander and make sure they don't escape from you," K said.

''Ohh, we're on it,'' Glacier chuckled.

''Yeah, sit back and relax, the wolf pack has this all under control,'' Gordon added.

*''Glacier, Gordon, I could use some help,''* Gracie said.

"Okay, sis," Glacier winked.

Ursula was trying to help Xander escape and they were just about to when the wolf pack showed up. "You aren't going anywhere," Gracie chuckled.

''Ohh, you wolves are so annoying,'' Ursula and Xander said at the same time.

''Glacie?'' ''Are you just going to let them insult you like that?'' Gracie and Gordon questioned.

''No, but I have a plan to scare them away for good,''

"What do you mean?" Ursula demanded.

"Keep up with that attitude and things won't look so great for you," Gracie warned.

''Ohh, you wolves are so annoying and you better get out of my way or else,'' Ursula threatened.

''Ohh, we're so scared,'' the three wolves said mockingly as they pretended to tremble.

''I wish I didn't have to do this,'' Ursula pulled out her laser gun and tried to shoot at them, but instead of the lasers, there was chocolate ice cream inside. "Looks like your plan backfired," Gracie smirked coldly.

"Way to go," Nayah whispered. Her teammates were watching as Ursula threw her laser gun down and pulled out another one. Only this one was filled with actual lasers.

''Uh-oh... Time to zoom!'' The triplets said as they sped away.

''*Nayah, you might want to run,'' Chester whispered.*

*''I can't just leave my teammates, Chessie, you know that, right?''*

*''Yeah, but she's got a card, and the card has the letter B on it and you KNOW that I can't faint,'' Chester responded.*

*''Ohh, it looks like I'll have to faint for you.''* Nayah started to tremble.

''Bestie, you okay?'' Kace asked.

''To be honest, I'm not,''

"But I thought you faced your fear many times..."

"Well, I hadn't exactly confronted it," Nayah admitted.

''Now's your chance,'' Chester whispered.

*''Play the song,'' Nayah whispered.*

*''Which one?''*

*''Something New,''*

*I wanna try something, all night*

*I wanna try something, all night*

*Don't know your name, but I guess I really don't care*

*I probably should wait, but I wanna let you go there*

*I wanna try something new, all night*

*I wanna try something new, all night*

*I wanna try something*

*By the way you looking tonight*

*Only one thing comes to my mind*

*When the lights come on at two*

*I'll still be moving with you*

*Boy you're looking at nobody*

*Just my body*

*Don't know your name, but I guess I really don't care*

*I probably should wait, but I wanna let you go there*

*I wanna try something new, all night*

*I wanna try something new, all night*

*I wanna try something*

*Ah-ah (wanna try babe)*

*Ah (all night) ah ah babe*

*Oh I, oh I, oh I*

*Baby, oh I, oh I, oh I*

*Baby*

*Baby know what you doing tonight?*

*I see that look in your eyes*

*I feel the same, yeah yeah*

*Miss your lips girl when we kiss*

*Why don't we handle this?*

*Girl you know I need some affection*

*Don't know your name, but I guess I really don't care*

*I probably should wait, but I wanna let you go there*

*I wanna try something new, all night*

*I wanna try something new, all night*

*I wanna try something*

*Ah, oh, ah*

"Well, Nayah, do you think you don't have betaphobia, anymore?" Jessica asked.

"Well...why don't we test it out?" Nayah suggested.

''*Butterfly, I need you, babe.'' Chessie whispered.*

''What happened?''

"I'm tied up."

''Oh, no!'' Nayah looked around and saw Chessie tied to a pole. "Who did this?" She asked.

"Xander did," Chessie growled.

''It's okay,'' Nayah said. "Because Xander and Ursula are trapped."

Nayah untied Chessie from the pole.

''Feeling better?'' Nayah asked.

''A little,''

"Hello babe," Xander smirked at Nayah. "How did you escape?!" Jessica asked. But Xander paid no attention to her.

''Nayah, c'mon,'' Xander whispered.

*''Nayah, use a wish when the wolf pack gets here, butterfly,'' Chester said.*

"Okay, Xander, I'll come with you." Nayah lied.

''Really, babe?'' Xander was excited.

*''The wolf pack is right next to Kace, so use a wish,'' Chester said.*

"I wish Xander would understand how we all really feel," Nayah wished.

''*Time to make your wish come true!'' Zara cheered.*

Xander turned to them. "Nayah, I see that you feel hurt. Jessica, I see you that really feel jealous. KC, you feel like you want me to leave you alone. Kendall, you feel happy inside. Ursula, I see you feel delighted." he said.

''Xander, you don't have to do this because Ursula is your girlfriend, you can change, I know you can, and well for the record, KC would talk to you you if you change,'' Nayah told him.

"And Xander...Please don't call me Kace,'' KC growled.

"Alright," Xander said.

"So will you change?" Nayah asked.

"No. I still have Ursula," Xander laughed rudely.

''*Well, my amazing and beautiful mariposa, you tried, and I know now might not be the best time to tell you but Diane and her siblings are all dead,'' Chester whispered.* Diane was Nayah's pet cat.

''WHAT?!" Nayah yelled, glaring at Xander.

'''Now you're not so perfect without your cat, babe,'' Xander smirked at Nayah.

''Xander, I'm not kidding. If I go outside and they're all deceased, I swear you're going to regret it because I'll punch you in the shoulder two times just to get you to learn your lesson,'' KC growled.

Nayah video called her mother. "Mom, are my cats okay?"

"Yes," Diana replied, turning the camera and showing Nayah the cats. They looked fine, healthy and happy. "Hi, guys," Nayah murmured. "I'm so glad you're alive."

"Fine! I lied!" Xander looked down.

''Time to give you a taste of your own medicine,'' Kace growled.

''Yeah, you scared our owner, so now it's time for us to do the same to you,'' Glacier snarled.

"Guess what: Ursula hates you," Kendall said to Xander.

''I....I don't care!'' Xander said, afraid the wolf pack were going to eat him.

"We lied," Jessica said as the wolf pack cornered Xander.

''On three, charge up,'' Glacier whispered to his sister and brother.

"Xander...you're going down," Gracie said.

''I..I'm sorry,'' Xander murmured.

''Three, two, one!'' Glacier counted.

Gracie and Gordon charged up. Gracie now had the power of teleportation and a powerful bite, while Gordon had the power of an everlasting freeze.

"Wait!" Nayah shouted. "Guys, is this really necessary? We just want Xander to learn how to be kind and not cheat."

The wolf pack stopped what they were doing. "You're right," Glacier said.

"Then what should we do?" Gracie asked.

''I have the perfect idea.. Xander hates kids shows, so let's make him watch Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood,'' Nayah suggested

"Better idea: I heard he hates dance shows. Let's make him watch Shake It Up," Kace said.

"Okay, then." Nayah shrugged.

''*I wish we could make Xander watch Shake It Up,'' Kace wished.*

''*Let the wishes come true!'' Layla cheered.*

"Oh, this sucks!" Xander cried as he watched Rocky Blue and CeCe Jones and Tinka Hessenheffer dance.

''Hey, Kace, are you thinking what I'm thinking?'' Beth asked after Xander watched the show.

"Oh, we should dance and it will annoy Xander even more," Kace danced. She and Beth started dancing the "Shake It Up" theme song.

*Don't like waiting, don't like waiting*

*Lets go right now*

*Gotta' hit the ground dancing*

*Before the music slows down*

*What I'm saying, what I'm saying*

*If there's something to fix*

*Take it to another level*

*This is the remix*

*Everybody, everybody*

*Get out on the floor*

*It can get a little crazy*

*When the kick hits the floor*

*Make a scene, make a scene*

*Nobody can ignore*

*Don't knock it, til you rock it*

*We can't take it no more*

*Bring the lights up*

*Bust the doors down*

*Dust yourself off*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*DJ set it off*

*Take it up a notch*

*All together now*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*Shake it up*

*Break it down, break it down*

*I've got something to say*

*When you're dancing with me*

*It's like we go MIA*

*Make a scene, make a scene*

*Nobody can ignore*

*Don't knock it, till you rock it*

*We can't take it no more*

*Bring the lights up*

*Bust the doors down*

*Dust yourself off*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*DJ set it off*

*Take it up a notch*

*All together now*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*Sh-sh-sh-shake it up*

*You gotta change it up*

*And if the days not right?*

*Just brush it off tonight*

*Put on the attitude*

*You're in my pocket mood*

*And when you've had enough*

*Sh-sh-sh-shake it up*

*Bring the lights up*

*Bust the doors down*

*Dust yourself off*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*DJ set it off*

*Take it up a notch*

*All together now*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*Bring the lights up*

*Bust the doors down*

*Dust yourself off*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*DJ set it off*

*Take it up a notch*

*All together now*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*Bring the lights up*

*Bust the doors down*

*Dust yourself off*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*DJ set it off*

*Take it up a notch*

*All together now*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

*Shake it up, shake it up*

''Oh, this is way more humiliating than actually watching Shake It Up,'' Xander wailed.

''We know,'' Kendall growled.

''Kace, Jessica?'' ''Are you girls thinking what I'm thinking?'' Nayah began chuckling.

''We sing Fireflies?'' Kace guessed.

''Yup,''

"Let's do this!" Jessica declared.

*Flies turn to flames*

*When heart start to chase*

*You'll fall if you run right into the smoke*

*The lights start to deem when it's almost enough*

*But flames light this place*

*Fireflies tonight*

*'Cause love lights the sky*

*Hey yeah*

*So put it up in, put it up in the air*

*Put it up in, put it up in the air*

*So put it up in, put it up in the air*

*Put it up in, put it up in the air*

*Baby, tell me right that you share*

*That's the loving put it in the atmosphere*

*If you want you put more*

*Living in the air*

*Just keep your attention so the clouds go nowhere*

*Just please light this place, oh oh oh oh*

*Fireflies tonight*

*'Cause love lights the sky*

*(Hey yeah)*

*So put it up in, put it up in the air*

*Put it up in, put it up in the air*

*So put it up in, put it up in the air*

*Put it up in, put it up in the air*

*Let it burn, burn*

*Let it burn, burn*

*Let it burn, burn*

*Let it burn, burn*

*Fireflies tonight*

*'Cause love lights the sky*

*So put it up in, put it up in the air*

*Put it up in, put it up in the air*

*So put it up in, put it up in the air*

*Put it up in, put it up in the air*

"You know, Xander, you offended me by saying Shake It Up sucks. It's my favorite show," Beth said.

"So? I don't care," Xander laughed.

''Kace? ''Can you sing the verse?'' Nayah asked.

"Nayah, let's sing Butterflies by Z," Kace giggled.

Nayah chuckled. "Okay, let's do it,''

*Wait a minute*

*Every time you're near*

*My body's getting reckless*

*Hope I don't regret this*

*Wait a minute*

*The way you make me feel*

*I can't keep my focus*

*It's too much to resist*

*I'm over being under your spell*

*It keeps blinding me*

*Was too blind to see, yeah*

*I'm not the only one that you tell*

*That I'm the only one*

*But my heart keeps telling me the perfect lie*

*You rip me up with every last goodbye*

*I don't wanna say forever*

*It's just another now or never*

*So heart don't let me trust these butterflies*

*I don't trust these butterflies*

*'Cause they fool me every time*

*Wait a minute*

*You want another try*

*Like the time before*

*Then a million more*

*Wait a minute*

*I'm ready to fly*

*No need to read your mind*

*I can read the signs*

*I'm over being under your spell*

*It keeps blinding me*

*Was too blind to see, yeah*

*I'm not the only one that you tell*

*That I'm the only one*

*But my heart keeps telling me the perfect lie*

*You rip me up with every last goodbye*

*I don't wanna say forever*

*It's just another now or never*

*So heart don't let me trust these butterflies*

*I don't trust these butterflies*

*'Cause they fool me every time*

*You wanna catch me before I'm gone*

*But I'm already there*

*Yeah, I'm already there*

*You wanna stop me from moving on*

*But I'm already there*

*Yeah, I'm already there*

*My heart keeps telling me the perfect lie*

*You rip me up with every last goodbye*

*I don't wanna say forever*

*It's just another now or never*

*So heart don't let me trust these butterflies*

*I don't trust these butterflies*

*'Cause they fool me every time*

"Well, thanks a lot, now that Ursula is in juvenile," Xander groaned.

"Who knows, you'll probably end up there next," Xavier scolded his twin.

Xander scoffed.

"I love you, but not when you act up," Xavier continued.

"Yeah, right," Xander scoffed.

"I wish Xander would see that I love him," Xavier wished.

"*Time to make a wish reality!" Martin cheered.*

"Xander, you're my brother and I love you. That'll *never* change. But you need to stop acting like this," Xavier said.

"Yeah, only I don't care because I'm not you, bro," Xander sneered. Ursula suddenly showed up and ran to his side. They looked at each other evilly.

"How did you escape, Ursula?" Nixie demanded.

"I just can," Ursula boasted.

"Let's ride," Nayah whispered.

"We're out of energy," Glacier whimpered.

Kace walked to Nayah and reached for her hand and smiled warmly.

"Bestie, we can do this," K said truthfully.

"You can, but I just can't. The fear hurts," Nayah sighed sadly.

"Nayah, we don't need any negativity," Kendall said.

"Yeah, we all need to stay positive," Jessica added.

''You're right,'' Nayah said, closing her eyes.

"Nayah, help!" Kace yelped as Ursula and Xander were dragging her behind the building.

"No! This is not happening!" Nayah shouted.

"But it is. Now." Jessica said.

"Nayah, you have to go save your BFF," Beth encouraged.

"B for bunny, A for anteater, B for buffalo, E for eagle," Nayah recited.

"Let me go, Xander!" Kace ordered.

"I won't," Xander snarled.

"Well, Nayah will make you!" She warned.

"You can do this, amigo," Chester whispered.

"XANDER, LET KACE GO NOW!" Nayah shouted.

"You have to sing it first," Xander smirked.

"Sing what?"

"Nayah, he wants you to sing Something New by Z," Kace whispered.

"*Nayah, you can do this, I know you can, you've sung the song a million times, and the best part is, the song repeats!" Chessie whispered.*

"*But that's our song*," Nayah said hesitantly.

She'd play that song for Chester every time he needed to relax and that was the song she had played when she had first met Chester.

"I'm gonna eliminate her," Xander smirked.

"Bestie, help!" K yelped.

"What about the rest of us? Are you going to eliminate us too?" Beth demanded.

"Nah," Xander turned his attention back to Nayah. "Only Kace and Nayah," he smirked. "Bestie, let's sing." Kace whispered.

"But I don't want to get eliminated," Nayah protested.

"Come on, it'll be alright," Kace giggled.

Fine," Nayah sighed. They began to sing the theme song for Hannah Montana.

*Oh, yeah*

*Come on*

*You get the limo out front (oh-whoa)*

*Hottest styles, every shoe, every color*

*Yeah, when you're famous it can be kinda fun*

*It's really you, but no one ever discovers*

*In some ways, you're just like all your friends*

*But on stage, you're a star*

*You get the best of both worlds*

*Chill it out, take it slow*

*Then you rock out the show*

*You get the best of both worlds*

*Mix it all together*

*And you know that it's the best of both worlds*

*The best of both worlds, yeah*

*You go to movie premiers (is that Orlando Bloom?)*

*Hear your songs on the radio (oh-whoa)*

*Livin' two lives is a little weird, yeah*

*But school's cool 'cause nobody knows*

*Yeah, you get to be a small town girl*

*But big time when you play your guitar*

*You get the best of both worlds*

*Chill it out, take it slow*

*Then you rock out the show*

*You get the best of both worlds*

*Mix it all together*

*And you know that it's the best of both*

*You know the best of both worlds*

*Pictures and autographs*

*You get your face in all the magazines*

*The best part is that*

*You get to be whoever you wanna be*

*Yeah, the the best of both*

*(Best, best) You got the best of both*

*(Best, best) Come on, the best of both*

*Who would've thought that a girl like me*

*Would double as a super star?*

*You get the best of both worlds*

*Chill it out, take it slow*

*Then you rock out the show*

*You get the best of both world*

*Mix it all together*

*And you know that it's the best*

*You get the best of both worlds*

*Without the shades and the hair*

*You can go anywhere*

*You get the best of both girls*

*Mix it all together, oh yeah*

*It's so much better*

*'Cause you know you got*

*The best of both worlds*

"I give up," Xander lied.

Nayah felt a feather on her hand. The feather touched her circular necklace as she began to growl.

"You just lied, Xander, so now, you're paying the price for your lie,'' K said.

"And did you know Nayah's necklace can detect lies?" Beth scolded Xander.

"Beth, I like you," Xander smirked.

"Butterfly, do you read me?" Chester asked over her necklace.

"Yeah, what's up?" Nayah asked.

"Gloria trapped me on accident," Chester whispered.

"Gloria!" Tristan scolded. The Doberman looked down in shame. "I'm sorry," Gloria said.

"It was my fault, I sung the whole song," Chester sighed.

"Oh Chester," Nayah sighed sadly.

"Nayah, I need a moment..."Jessica said, tears welling in her eyes. Kendall and Beth tried their best to comfort her.

"Jess, what's wrong?" Kace asked.

"It has something to do with me," Chessie said sadly.

"What happened, Chester?" Nayah growled.

"I, well, hurt Jessica's feelings," Chessie sighed.

"Honestly? Why?!" Nayah demanded.

"I was upset with her,"

"But what exactly happened?"

"I snapped at her and hurt her feelings," Chessie sighed and started to whimper.

"Chester, you know better," Charlie scolded his twin.

"I'm so sorry, Jessica,' Chessie apologized.

"It's alright," Jess said with a smile.

The next day after school, Nayah and her teammates were in HQ when they had company. "Hello Ursula," Tristan glared.

Actually, it was both Kami and Ursula who were there. "Be prepared to be eliminated,' Kami said.

"Gloria, I know you'll probably tickle me after this, but I have to say it," Nayah looked at her dog friend with painful eyes.

"Go ahead, then." "I'm okay, love." Gloria said slowly. She covered her ears, totally zoned in.

"Babe, let's flirt," Chessie whispered to Nayah.

"Are you my phone charger? "Because if I didn't have you, I would die," Nayah said, laughing.

"Nayah, I think this is a bad time," Jackie whispered. Zora and Zane were holding feathers. Nayah began to cry softly. She knew what was gonna happen.

"Nayah, we must do this," Zora sighed.

"Chessie, you're not getting out of this," Zane added, seeing the Doberman Dalmatian Saint Bernard trying to run away.

"Chessie, please don't make this harder than what it is, just face facts," Nayah murmured.

"I can't face facts, not if I know they're going to tickle us both for 2 hours, " Chester mumbled.

"Chester, you have to do the right thing," Kendall said.

Chester looked at Beth. "What do you think I should do?" He asked her.

"Just face the truth, Chester, your butterfly will be getting tickled with you,"

Chessie sighed.

"You gotta face that fear," Jessica advised.

"Fine, let's go," Chester sighed. He took Nayah's hand. They were both tickled.

"Oh, at least I'm with you Chessie," Nayah said sadly.

"I'm sorry I got us in this mess," Chester apologized.

"I just wish Gloria was calmer about the rules," Nayah said sadly.

"Time to make a wish reality," Zora cheered.

Gloria's voice said, "I'll stop tickling after an hour. Is that okay?"

"That's fine with us," Chessie and Nayah said cheerfully.

"Nayah, it's Beth. I'm about to literally create a fire with my mind. I'm just so disappointed," Beth's voice said.

"Beth, don't worry, Chessie and I will be free of tickling in an hour," Nayah said calmly.

"Okay," Beth said.

An hour later, Nayah and Chester were free. Tristan said, "Welcome back partner," he said.

"Beth accidentally set this bench on fire," Kace whispered.

"I'm sorry, my powers are hard to control sometimes," Beth apologized.

Beth had supernatural powers, like the ability to create fires and ice with her mind. She also had other powers, such as telepathy and telekinesis.

"That's alright," Kace said.

"We have more bad news, Xander is right behind you, Nayah!" Gloria said.

"Beth, create a fire or ice or something. Do something!" Nayah wailed.

"I can't because it's too dangerous," Beth said.

"Chester, play the song, but whatever you do, don't sing the last verse,"

Chester played Too Much on the radio and didn't sing the last verse. "That doesn't stop me," Xander smirked. "Nayah, you are my butterfly."

Beth created a laser wall with her mind and it trapped Xander inside. "Hey, what's this?!" he shouted.

"Time to initiate phase two," Nayah whispered.

*"Partner, I wish I could flirt with Xander secretly without Gloria trapping us," Nayah murmured to Tristan.* "I'm sorry, Tristan, but I'm going to have to do this."

She looked over at the laser wall. "Beth, can you please remove?"

Beth did and Nayah said, "Babe, let's flirt," to Xander.

Xander smirked. "Alright!"

"And Beth, can you make a laser wall to surround Gloria so she won't know about this?" Nayah asked.

"Did it," Beth announced.

"Time to flirt," Nayah said, smirking at Xander.

"Wait, before we get on with this, Sophie, I wish my partner knew what I'm about to do," Tristan wished.

*"Time for the magic to flow," Sophie cheered.* The fox spun around.

Tristan's wish was granted. "Nayah, you know you'll get into trouble eventually. I'll have Beth create magic fire and surround you two, just in case Gloria sees you," Tristan said.

"All done," Beth said.

"Xander, cover your ears," Nayah said. When he did that, Nayah turned to Beth. "Beth, can you read Xander's mind and tell me what he is thinking?"

"Okay," Beth shut her eyes tight.

"What is he thinking?" Nayah whispered.

"He wants you to love him,"

"Nayah," Tristan said. "I advise that you play along with it."

"Alright, let's flirt," Nayah said to Xander.

Xander winked. "Okay, babe."

Nayah looked around fearfully, making sure Gloria wasn't nearby. "Don't worry, I got everything under control, "Beth said.

"Butterfly, promise me you love me forever," Chester whispered.

"Of course I do," Nayah whispered.

"Butterfly, let's tell each other jokes," Xander smirked.

Chester was infuriated. "Xander, if you call Nayah butterfly one more time, I'll have Beth surround you with ice or fire!" He growled.

"Butterfly," Xander smirked.

Nayah glared at Xander.

"Beth, you know what to do," Chester said.

Beth glared so furiously at Xander that her eye color changed to red and fire started to pop up from under the ground. It surrounded Xander.

"Guys, I hate to say this, but I want you to use the Tickle Taser on me," Nayah said.

"Why?" Kendall asked.

"Oh, I'll explain later. Here," Nayah handed the Tickle Taser to Kace.

Nayah rolled on the grass, laughing as Kace kept pointing the Tickle taser at her. "What's going on? Who's torturing my butterfly!" Xander demanded. Beth made the fire disappear and Xander walked right towards the team.

Kace sighed. She didn't like torturing her BFF.

"Chester, I love you," Nayah murmured.

Kace set the tickle taser down. Using her mind, Beth stared at the Tickle taser and soon it was on fire and burned.

"Chester, I love you," Nayah repeated.

Chester held her close. Nayah got up and said, "Xander, leave me and my Chester alone. If you say the B word, you will be tickled for an hour."

"Never, butterfly," Xander snarled.

"I wish Xander was getting scolded," Chester whispered.

Suddenly his wish was granted. Gloria said, "Xander, if you call Nayah butterfly one more time, Zariah will suck you in."

"Oh, I'll just call Nayah my lynx," Xander smirked, looking at Nayah. She started to count to eight.

"You know what, I'm done," Nayah growled, walking away from Xander. Chester shot an angry glance at Xander.

"See? Now you've gone and made her mad," K said angrily.

Sparks shot out of Beth's hands and she was about to send them to fly right at Xander, but Chester stopped her. "No, Beth, that's not a good idea. You don't want to hurt him, you know."

"I hope Nayah's okay." Tristan said.

"Hey, where is she going?" Kendall asked.

"Oh no!" Chester said. "She's walking right into a trap!"

"Nayah, move!" A voice yelled. It was Charlie!

"Close your eyes, love!" Chester said firmly as Nayah closed her eyes. She started to count to nineteen.

*"Uh-oh." Nayah murmured.*

"Babe, we're not done playing," Xander smirked. Nayah gulped. She knew she had been tricked and knew her fear had come true.

"Charlie, can you bubble me up? "And ask Gloria to tickle Xander, too... He just said you know what." The fourteen year old girl shuddered.

"Nayah... I love you," Charlie said, bubbling her up.

"That's not important. "We need Xander to learn his lesson," Nayah snapped.

"Alright, you don't need to snap," Charlie shuddered.

"Okay, ba..." Nayah stopped herself from saying the B word. "I mean, Xander, we are done playing. Now go away before Gloria tickles you."

"Make me," Xander challenged.

*"Charlie, sing Only When You're Close,"*

*Only when you're close*

*Only when you're close*

*All this time you weren't even on my mind*

*Who would've know that you'd be*

*Be the one in a million I need*

*Won't deny, I just want you by my side*

*Who would've thought that I'd be*

*Be so incomplete with just me*

*I can't catch my breath*

*Only when you're close*

*My heart drops on my chest*

*Only when you're close*

*I get so, get so wild*

*Only when you're close*

*I can't stop and I found*

*It's only when you're, only when you're*

*Close, close*

*How do you make me feel like just us two*

*Can live in the world where we know*

*That we can be free and let go*

*Hold me tight, so tight that our hearts collide*

*We live in the world that we own*

*Yeah, I'm at a place I call home*

*I can't catch my breath*

*Only when you're close*

*My heart drops on my chest*

*Only when you're close*

*I get so, get so wild*

*Only when you're close*

*I can't stop and I found*

*It's only when you're, only when you're*

*Close, close*

*Only when you're close*

*Close*

*Only, only, only*

*Let's dance*

*Only when you're close*

*It's only when you're, only when you're*

*Close, close*

*Close, close*

"That actually sounded f\*\*king good," Xander breathed.

"Shut your mouth," Beth snapped.

"It's game time," Xander said, taking out his laser gun and shooting it at Kace. It hit her in the leg, but she barely felt it.

*''Kace, let us help,' Layla pleaded.*

Kace barely heard her.

"No, it is not game time! Xander, it's time to surrender!" Chester shouted, slapping his tail at Xander.

"What the fuck...?" Xander was indignant.

"Watch your mouth," Xavier scolded.

"Where did you come from?" Nayah asked.

"Oh, I was here the whole time, just invisible," Xavier chuckled.

"Me too," Nixie added.

"Xander, bro, you seriously need to stop this once and for all," Xavier scolded.

"I'll make Kace swoon aka faint," Xander giggled.

Kace pretended to faint and fell on the ground.

''Gloria, it's time to tickle them both.'' Nayan chuckled.

''Nayah, you know I can't.. they haven't said the B word yet," Gloria shuddered.

"I know. Just wait and see,"

"I'll tickle them if they say any word that starts with R," Gloria decided.

''R for relax!" Xander smirked.

'Ding, ding, ding, ding!' "Tickle time, Chief!'' Nayah chuckled.

"Yup, we warned you," Gloria said, tickling both of them.

'Sorry, Xavi, but we have to.'' Nayah said.

"Replay!" Xavier shouted. Kace suddenly collapsed. She had heard that word way too much. "Kace? You good?" Nayah asked anxiously.

*''Xavi...Seriously?'' Martin snapped.*

"Guys, we gotta revive Kace...get a bucket of water," Tristan ordered.

The others nodded.

*''Snowflake, hang in there...We're not letting you die!'' Leo murmured, nuzzling her.*

"She's going to be fine. She's just unconscious...all thanks to Xavier!" Nayah said, glaring.

"I got the bucket of water,' Beth declared.

"I can't believe you, Xavier. You know that Xander said the R word and then you said Replay and now look at what happened! Did you honestly mean to do this?" Nixie asked angrily.

"You bet I did. I don't care at all," Xavier sneered.

"Were you trying to provoke her?" Jessica asked.

"So what if I did?"

"Not again! You played me again!" Nixie shouted and began to cry.

"Nixie...Where are you hiding, lynx?" Xavier smirked.

"What is wrong with you? Why do you keep lying to me?" Nixie cried.

"No reason...I'm going to help free Xander now," Xavier laughed rudely.

"*Xavi, seriously, if you don't stop, we'll have to leave you forever."*

Beth poured the water over K and she woke up. "What happened...?" Kace asked.

"*Nothing... Ya just fell asleep."* Leo whispered comfortingly.

"Why are Nixie and Xavier fighting?" Kace asked.

"Because he played everyone one of us and is threatening to break Xander out of Gloria," Layla replied.

''Well, I wish Gloria was frozen.'' Nayah wished.

''*Babe, you're out of wishes.'' Zane whispered.*

''*Dang it, you're right.. But when I'm done with my mission, it's tickle time!'' Nayah laughed.*

Suddenly, Nayah fell on the ground as KC looked at her anxiously.

"Xavi.. did you do something to her?" Beth asked.

"Wait, look!" Tristan said. There was a bottle of powder on the ground. "He must've poisoned her."

"No, I didn't," Xavier lied.

"I t*hink you're lying.*" *Martin growled.*

"*Yeah, there's no way she would have fallen on the ground like that." "So if you don't tell the truth, we'll make sure you can't make wishes anymore." Chris added.*

"Fine!" "I poisoned her!" Xavier growled.

"Well.. You're in trouble, young man." A voice said firmly. It was his mother, Amanda.

"Well, Xander's trapped!" Xavier protested.

Nixie cried.

*"Nix...We love you.*" Xandra *said truthfully.*

"Someone wake up Nayah," Chessie cried.

"*She deserves to be deceased." Xander growled.*

*"Shut up, I heard that," Beth growled.*

*"Stop reading my mind,"*

*"Never," Beth replied.*

*"Xavi, we told you what was going to happen to you if you kept being so mean, so now, we're Brett's backup genie pets!" Martin cheered.*

*"Oh yeah?"*

*"Xavier, you played all of us and betrayed Nixie and made both Kace and Nayah faint. You should be ashamed!" Beth said.*

"*Oh, why can't I own Chris and Martin?" Xander whined.*

"*Xander, do you remember what happened the last time you played with us?"* *Martin* *growled.*

"*No, MK, I don't." Xander smirked.*

"You gave each of us three scars on our backsides so now when we turn around, it hurts!"

"I wish Brett was here," Tristan wished.

"*Out with a bad deed, in with a good one!" Spencer cheered.*

Brett showed up. "Tristan, can we talk about something?" It's about Nayah," he said.

"Yeah?"

"She wants to be in a poly relationship with me, you, Chester, and Charlie and I don't know if I should say yes because I don't want the twins mad at me but I don't know."

"Have you ever told you how you feel?"

"Not exactly...you see, I love her because she's awesome, smart, mature and loving...I never told her..."

"Well, if you're afraid to tell her, send her a text," Tristan advised.

"*I wish I could tell the girl of my dreams how I feel through a text."*

*"Time to make some magic happen," Chris cheered.*

Suddenly, Nayah's phone buzzed. "Nayah, it's me," Diana's voice said.

"Oh hi, mom, what's up?"

"Can you come home now?"

"Why?" Nayah asked.

''You have school tomorrow, bebe, you know that.'' ''And Christine's coming to get you, too.'' Diana replied.

''I'll be there in a heartbeat!'' Nayah said quickly.

"Nayah, did you see my text?" Brett asked.

"Yes." "But I've gotta run." Nayah zoomed away, crying.

"Cheetah, you're not getting away.'' Brett said, grabbing her shoulder. Nayah winced slightly.

"Easy, buddy," Tristan said softly.

"And Nayah, I was only trying to make my twin happy. I'm sorry," Xavier apologized.

"It's OK, Xavier." "I forgive you." "But I have something to tell you." Nayah looked at Xavier and started crying again.

"Whoa, what's up?" "Did Xander do something to you?" Xavier asked.

"Yes. He wants me eliminated just so he can get to my bestie." Nayah said angrily.

"Hello, babe." Xander smirked.

"Nayah, I know you said you were over it but you might wanna go to Calming Cave." KC whispered.

"No way." "I can't just leave you here." Nayah retorted.

"Nayah, go." Kace urged.

"Yes, Nayah. I agree with her. It's for the best. Besides, Brett wants to meet you there," Beth added.

Nayah zoomed to Calming Cove, but Brett wasn't there. "Nayah, I dare you to face me," Xander challenged. Nayah started to close her eyes and count to nine.

*"Breathe.. deep breaths." Nix murmured.*

"Leave my babe alone," Brett said suddenly. Nayah glared at him after he said that.

Nayah took a deep breath and closed her eyes as she made a soft ding noise, then punched his shoulder hard as she collapsed. "Nayah!" Brett hollered.

"Get...Beth and Kace... they'll know what to do," She responded weakly and fainted.

"Okay." Brett zoomed to HQ and saw Beth and K there.

"Where's my girl Nayah?" "You didn't do something to her*, did you*?" K asked suspiciously and softly.

"No..." Brett lied.

Beth read his mind. "He's not telling the truth." She said.

"Okay...I didn't mean to," Brett looked down in shame.

"What'd you do to make her faint?" KC asked gently.

"It was an accident, I know it." Beth confirmed.

"I told Xander to leave her alone and I said babe," Brett sighed.

"Hello, Nayah." A voice said.

"Xander, don't make me make a wish." Nayah growled.

"Nayah, you're awake!" Chester and Charlie cried.

"Yes, I am," Nayah said, glaring at Brett.

"Nayah, I'm so sorry..."

"I'm sorry, but I have to call Gloria." Nayah sighed.

*"Well, well, well." "Looks like you're getting tickled today, buddy." "To be honest, Zion and I feel very bad for you." Zoe said sadly.*

*Brett blinked back tears. He was really ashamed. And now the twins were mad at him for his mistake.*

"Babe..." Kamala smirked, then  gasped. She accidentally said it too. Nayah fell to the ground once again.

*"Zariah.. You already know what I'm gonna say." Chester said.*

Zariah nodded and sucked Kami in.

Nayah fainted once more. Kace sobbed loudly. Beth's eyes turned bright red as she glared at Xander.

"Please don't hurt me." Xander pleaded.

"It's a little too late for that, X." Xavier smirked, using his brother's nickname.

Brett's eyes filled with tears as he looked at Nayah. "I made a huge mistake," he said quietly.

"Buddy," Tristan said, putting a hand on his shoulder. Brett sighed.

"Tristan, there's something I never told you about. It's about me and Nayah and my feelings for her," Brett said quietly.

"Okay, what is it?"

"I was her childhood best friend and we kinda fell in love in 8th grade but nothing was really official just yet."

"Wow..."

"And Tristan...my feelings for her....she's very very beautiful, kind, mature, loving, sweet, cute...and now, look at what I did. She fainted...and it's part of my fault. I called her babe, Kamala called her babe,  and Xander did."

"Oh, Nayah, please wake up." Two voices said at the same time. It was Diana and Jackson.

Nayah slowly opened her eyes. "Mom? Dad? They said babe way too much," She shuddered.

"We know." "But you've got training today, but first, you need this." Diana said, handing her daughter a water bottle.

"Thanks." Nayah drank and felt a lot better.

"Are you OK, butterfly?" Brett asked.

"Fox, *how could you?"* Nayah asked sadly, tears of anger stinging her eyes.

"It was an accident," Brett explained gently.

"Uh-oh.. *We've got double trouble."* Jackie said suddenly, noticing Edward and Linda walking over. Nayah started to pace up and down, knowing Jackie was right.

*"Run!" K.C said as Nayah started to sprint away. But she was too late. So she closed her eyes tightly. She counted to seven this time. She could feel her heartbeat get faster than usual. She felt all dizzy and lightheaded. She yelped as Zane tackled her.*

*"Hold on, Nayah, I'll release, just let it sink in first." Zane murmured.*

"Babe," Edward smirked at Linda. Nayah collapsed to the ground once more.

"Oh, stop it Edward!" Jackie said, slapping him.

"Oh, butterfly, I love you, babe." Chester whimpered.

"That's not fair!" "Chessie just pulled the same trick, but Nayah fainted when I did!" Edward snarled.

"Oh, but Gloria said that Nayah and Chester, along with the rest of us, can use the four letter trick but you can't!" KC snarled, slapping Edward again.

"Chessie?" "I think the four letter trick's gotta be pulled *again*, but in a song form." Charlie murmured.

'You got it, Char!" Chester laughed as he turned on his special radio. A very familiar song began to play.

*Baby we're too much, much to handle*

*Understand it when we turn it up*

*Too much, much to handle*

*Yeah we're just too much*

*Come on*

*Steppin' out the door, they already know what song we like oh yeah*

*Push up on the scene like we read about in a magazine like oh yeah*

*So fly from head to toe*

*Keep yours, we got our own*

*Can't tell there's nothing known*

*Do what we want like oh yeah*

*Cause we gonna get it poppin' poppin'*

*That's that reason why you talkin' talkin'*

*You say we killin' it? stop it stop it*

*The beat get hot, drop it!*

*Baby we're too much, much to handle*

*Understand it when we turn it up*

*Too much, much to handle*

*Yeah we're just too much*

*Baby, we're too much, much to handle*

*Understand it yeah, we can't be touched*

*We're too much, much to handle*

*Yeah, we're just too much*

*You don't get it*

*You don't get it, babe*

*You ain't ever gonna get it, babe*

*In just a minute you will get it, babe*

*You ain't never gonna get it, babe*

*No way, we ain't got no shame*

*Going against the grain like, oh yeah!*

*Don't be surprised when you see us touch the sky like, oh yeah!*

*Work hard for what we got*

*Think we're difficult, we're not*

*Now the underdog's on top and we ain't gonna stop like, oh yeah!*

*Cause we always get it poppin' poppin'*

*That's that reason why you're talkin' talkin'*

*You say we killin' it? stop it stop it*

*...*

*The beat get hot, drop it!*

*Baby we're too much, much to handle*

*Understand it when we turn it up*

*Too much, much to handle*

*Yeah we're just too much*

*Baby, we're too much, much to handle*

*Understand it yeah, we can't be touched*

*We're too much, much to handle*

*Yeah, we're just too much*

*You don't get it*

*You don't get it, babe*

*You ain't ever gonna get it, babe*

*In just a minute you will get it, babe*

*You ain't never gonna get it, babe*

*No it's not that complicated, we're ready for the crowd*

*You can love it*

*You can hate it*

*That's just how we get down*

*Hey! Hey! Heeeey!*

*Baby we're too much, much to handle*

*Understand it when we turn it up*

*Too much, much to handle*

*Yeah we're just too much*

*Baby, we're too much, much to handle*

*Understand it yeah, we can't be touched*

*We're too much, much to handle*

*Yeah, we're just too much*

*We're too much, much to handle*

*Yeah, we're just too much*

*You don't get it*

*You don't get it, babe*

*You ain't ever gonna get it, babe*

*In just a minute you will get it, babe*

*You ain't never gonna get it, babe*

*I'm gonna get it, babe*

"Nayah, don't!" Tristan called.

Too late. Nayah had fallen to the ground once more.

"Xander.. You'd better run, because you're in so much trouble." Xavier snarled.

"I thought you'd be happy, Xavi." Xander smirked.

"Why would I be happy if you've tricked my best friend?" Xavier demanded.

"Brett, are you crying?" Tristan asked, noticing his partner's face.

"Yes.." Brett looked at his partner sadly.

"Nayah, truth or dare?" Xander smirked.

"Truth." Nayah sighed.

"What's your fear?"

"The B word, and I am not talking about the curse word," Nayah said shakily. She felt her face get hot.

"Are you afraid of me triggering one of your seizures again?" Xander asked.

Nayah started to shake her head, but Xander knew the truth. Brett glared harshly at Xander.

*"Nayah.." Beth said.*

*"Yeah?"*

*"Be careful, Xander's gonna try to trigger one of your seizures," Beth said, reading Xander's mind.*

*"Uh-oh.. What do I do?"*

"Nayah, please stay with me," Brett urged.

"Fox.. I need a favor." "A *replaying* favor." Nayah grinned.

"Let me guess.. We coax Xander into listening to Replay?" Brett smirked.

"Yeah!" "But first, I've gotta wear my bracelets that keep me from fainting." Nayah said weakly.

"Nayah, you good?" Kace asked, rushing towards her bestie.

"I'm chill, Kace." "But first, distract Xander." "Fox and I have work to do."

"Nayah, I love you," Chester whimpered.

"I know. Me too. But Fox and I will be fine," Nayah encouraged.

"Nayah, I have another dare." Xander smirked.

"Oh, no, no otro desafío, Xander. I hate you with a passion!" The fifteen-year-old snarled.

"Ooh...I'm not scared, babe." Xander smirked.

"Nayah, run!" "Run to the Cave!" K said.

Nayah started to go and Brett went with her. "Nayah, I love you..." Brett said.

"I know, you said that like ten times," Nayah chuckled.

"Will you date me then?"

"Of course!"

"Remember our first kiss?" Brett asked.

"Yes and it did not go too well," Nayah winced, remembering the moment.

"You literally ran off afterwards." Brett shuddered.

"I did that because you poured juice on me."

"And remember when Edward tried to kiss you?" He smirked.

"Brett, come on,"

Kace, Beth, Jessica and Kendall came to them. "Edward's back!" Beth frowned.

"Why is your brother so obsessed with Nayah?" Jessica said.

"I want her to love me." Edward smirked as Nayah started to scream. She gazed at her partner, who looked at her with an apologetic look. Nayah closed her eyes. She quickly counted to eight.

"Leave my babe alone!" Brett snapped as Nayah glared at him like he'd lost his mind while she was covering her mouth and screaming. She had suffered already, and her partner was just making her suffer even more.

Nayah punched his shoulder extra-hard and fainted. "Nayah, I'm so sorry...I didn't think you'd fall..." Brett said, already starting to cry again.

"*How did you make her fall again?" "You didn't say babe, did you?" Zoe asked carefully.*

"Yes.. I pulled the four letter trick." Brett sighed.

*"Well, time for tickling!" Zion cheered.* The new rule was if you said babe, you'd get tickled hard for five to ten minutes or longer.

"Okay, here we go," Brett took a deep breath.

"You should lie on your back." "It's easier for us to tickle."

"Okay," Brett said, lying down.

The twins started to tickle Brett all over.

"Okay, okay, okay..." Brett laughed.

"We're not done yet. We haven't gotten to the severe tickling part yet," Zoe said slyly.

"Severe?" "Please don't kill me." Brett said cautiously.

"Brett, relax. It will be done in a minute," Zion cheered.

"Okay, I trust you two, but I'm scared for my butterfly." "What if Xander tricks her?" "She might say it on accident and get tickled."

"Don't worry, fox." Nayah said. "I won't let him trick me."

While Brett was getting severely tickled, Nayah put on her headphones and hummed, ignoring Xander. But what she didn't know was that she was gonna hear the one word that was off-limits again.

*"Uh-oh." "Nayah, close your eyes!" Zane said as Nayah closed her eyes.*

"Hello, babe." Edward smirked.

"Oh, not this again." "Go away, Edward!" "I'll ice you." Nayah said angrily, avoiding eye contact.

*"And you'll get tickled!" Zoe cheered.*

"I haven't called Nayah babe." Edward fibbed.

*"Liar, liar, pants on fire!" Zoe said.*

*"That's right. Time to tickle," Zion cheered.*

"Babe." Edward smirked.

*"You said it again! Let's double the tickling!" Zoe cheered.*

"Aww, Nayah, babe.' Edward smirked.

*"Triple tickling time!" Zion warned.*

*"Yeah!" "You just pulled the same trick three times." Zion snapped.*

"Gotta go!" Edward ran off.

"Hey, get back here!" Beth said, running after her brother.

"I'll never let you catch me." Edward sneered.

"Come on, babe," Xander smirked at Linda.

"Oh, no! She's down again!" Kace said as Nayah collapsed, her headphones still on her ears.

"Nayah, we love you." Chessie sobbed. "Stop making her faint, Xander!" Kace growled at Xander.

"Did you hear that, babe? She's angry with you!" Linda smirked as Chester suddenly fainted.

"Uh-oh, it's tickle time for both of you!" Zoe said.

"Yeah!" "First Nayah goes down, then Chessie!" "Time to tickle!" "Layla, Leo, can you help?" Zion asked.

"Let's do this!" Leo and Layla said in unison as Xander ran off.

"Nayah, I'm so sorry this is all my fault," Brett sobbed.

The team looked surprised. "How is this your fault, buddy?" Tristan asked. "It was Xander and Linda who said it, not you."

"I know.. I used a charm to make the wrong prediction."

"Brett, don't beat yourself up. You messed up, but you can fix it!" Tristan encouraged.

"Okay." Brett closed his eyes, trying to reverse the prediction.

*"Reverse, reverse." Brett said softly.*

"Aww, how cute," Edward smirked evilly.

"Shut up, bro, you realize this is half your fault," Beth snarled.

"Not now, Bethy. Stay out of this," Edward said. "I want Nayah back. She's my butterfly, princess, cheetah..."

"No, she is mine," Brett said quietly, but firmly.

"Yeah!" "I love Brett and Chessie!" Nayah snapped as she surrounded herself with ice.

"Stupid girl," Linda laughed scornfully.

While she was cursing at Nayah, Nayah put her headphones on and hummed, ignoring Linda's insults.

"Nayah's fainted way too much, guys, stop torturing her!" Chester snapped at Edward, Linda, and Xander.

"*We'll tickle." "Just don't talk." Zane murmured.*

"Why do you insist on torturing her like this?!" Brett demanded.

Linda looked at Nayah, smirking. The fifteen-year-old slowly took off her Fear Watch.

"Because she deserves to perish," Edward said.

"Shut up, she does not! You know that," Beth snarled.

Unfortunately, the battery in Nayah's headphones died. A look of fear crossed her face, but Chessie had a plan.

"Catch!" Chester tossed her his spare set of blue and pink headphones. "Thank goodness," she sighed heavily.

"Don't worry, we won't let him do anything to you," Kace said.

"Thanks, Kace." "But the trio will probably try to trick me." Nayah frowned.

"We won't let them, butterfly." Chessie giggled.

"I don't want to get tortured again," Nayah sighed.

"Aww." "Are you scared of us torturing you, babe?" Edward smirked as Nayah slapped him not once, but *twice.*

"Ed, time to face the consequences," Kace smirked.

"Oh, why aren't you falling?" Ed teased Nayah.

"Oh, I wish you were getting tickled." Nayah wished.

"Edward, I can't believe you would torture Nayah so much!" Brett sobbed.

"Brett, it's okay. I'm not on the ground....oh no, catch me!" Nayah said weakly.

"It's okay, butterfly." Chester caught her.

"Nayah's fainted again!" Brett said, sobbing again.

"I'm sure she's fine." Charlie said.

"There's no way we can wake her up." Xavier sobbed.

*"I can." Little Ox said.*

"Xavier, Brett, calm, I heard the ox," Beth said.

"Wait." "There's an *ox*?" Brett asked.

"Yes!" "Did Nayah tell you?" Beth asked.

"No," Xavier realized.

"Brett, Xavier, please don't cry," Little Ox said.

"Nayah fainted." Brett said.

"I know, but I can awaken her," Little Ox encouraged.

"All right, just be careful." Xavier said as Little Ox started singing. Nayah slowly began to awaken. She looked up and saw Edward smirking.

"Edward, stop torturing me by making me faint!" Nayah snarled.

"Oh, babe, I love you." Ed smirked as Chester slowly collapsed as Nayah began to cry. "Chester, how could you?" Kace asked in shock.

"Nayah, I have an idea." Brett whispered.

"What is it?" Nayah whispered.

"Wear your headphones."

"But Edward destroyed them," Nayah said.

"Here," Beth said, handing her new ones.

"It's torture time again," Edward smirked.

"Yeah," Xander smirked.

"I don't think so," Nayah said, humming as she put on her headphones.

"Nayah, can you hum Love You Forever?" Charlie asked.

"Ugh, not that song," Xander groaned as Nayah hummed Love You Forever.

"Good work," Brett said, shooting a look at Edward and Xander.

"Nayah, I have a dare." Xander smirked as Kace shot Nayah an uh-oh look. "Don't you do it, I know what he's making you do," Kace warned.

"But what if it's something totally unexpected and not something you'd expect?" Nayah asked.

"Nayah, are you willing to do it?" Xavier asked in shock.

"Let's do it," Nayah shrugged.

"I dare you to tell me Little Ox's real name."

"You already know," Kace glared.

"I'm not saying." "I can't lose the trust of my BFF, not again." Nayah growled as Chief glanced at her, obviously feeling very worried. Nayah closed her eyes, slowly counting to nine.

"Nayah, can't you tell me, babe?" Xander smirked as Baby Ox looked at Nayah with an upset don't go down look. But he was way too late, because Nayah had collapsed, but Chessie caught her. The calf glared at Xander like he was *crazy*.

"Not again! Stop torturing her!" Baby Ox said fiercely.

"Relax." "She's not hurt." Chessie whispered.

"Edward, how dare you. You just *love* torturing her, don't you?" Brett asked angrily.

"*C-H-I-L-L." Zoe murmured softly.*

*"They won't stop torturing her." "I can't watch her fall anymore!" Brett sobbed.*

*"Use your powers." Zion suggested.*

Brett used his powers to keep Nayah in a bubble.

*"Good work, fox." "I have something to tell you, though."* *Nayah said softly as she began to cry.*

*"What's wrong, my queen?" Brett asked, surprised.*

*"I said the B word by accident while playing truth or dare with Xander!" "And I have* *xinoaxphobia!" Nayah sobbed.*

"Nayah, we have to do this," Zion said.

Nayah started to cry, laying down on her back, her shoes already off her feet.

"Nayah, be brave," Jackie said softly.

"Okay, here goes nothing." Nayah said softly as the twins started tickling.

"We're going easy on you today," Zoe said.

"Yeah, you're still our BFF." Zion added, starting to tickle her all over as she laughed.

"Not the tickles!" "I surrender!" Nayah laughed.

"Nayah, we'll be done in one minute," Zoe promised.

Nayah started to relax, then closed her eyes. "I'm...I'm sorry, but it tickles!"

After one minute, Nayah had to rest to regain strength.

"Oh, no." Nixie whimpered.

"Whenever we're done, the person must rest because they probably laugh very hard," Gloria explained.

Nayah nodded slowly and her ears made a ding noise.

"What do you hear?" K asked softly.

"Someone needs my help," Nayah whispered.

"Oh, no." "It could be a setup." Kace said fearfully.

"But do we actually know that?" Beth asked.

"Beth, read the person's mind," Nayah pleaded.

"It's Xandra," Beth observed.

"Nayah, Xaiden and I need you." "Hurry!" Xandra said hoarsely.

"Nix, you have genie pets named Xandra and Xaiden, don't you?" Beth asked.

"Yeah!" "Are they OK?" Nixie asked.

"They're in trouble. Beth, tell her what's happening," Nayah said.

"Nix, Xandra and Xaiden are injured." Beth explained.

"What? How?" NIxie asked in a panicked tone.

"Xander lasered them both." Beth said softly as Nix started crying.

"Nix, it's going to be okay," Nayah said, noticing her face.

"I know, but it's just..." Nix sobbed.

*"We need you, Nix." "Please hurry!" Xaiden wailed.*

"Where are you?" Nix asked.

"C-Cave!" "Hurry!" Xandra said frantically.

Nix and Nayah, along with some of the others, raced to the Cave.

"Hello, babe." Xander smirked as Nayah started to scream. She didn't fall, however. "You can't make me fall anymore!" Nayah screamed.

"Xander, did you just say Baby Ox's actual name?" Dexter growled.

"Sure I did," Xander smirked.

"Wow, X." "All it took was for Dexter to ask you that and you confessed." Xavier giggled.

"Yeah, but I don't care," Xander snarled.

"Oh, but I think you should," Gloria said.

"And why is that?" "Are you going to punish me for breaking the rule?" Xander sneered.

"Xander, you know better," Amanda scolded.

"I know, but I don't care." Xander smirked as Nayah looked at him, using her fire power to trap him in a cage made of metal bars.

"Time to chase!" Baby Ox smirked.

"Guys, we have bad news. Nayah, remember your archrival Alyson from school? Well, she's teamed up with Kamala and Lexa," Jessica announced.

"Oh, no." "I've gotta warn Dexter and Shadow!" Nayah panicked. She ran to Snowflake Cave.

"Alyson, what a surprise," Brett growled.

"Hello, babe." Alyson smirked as Zoe started to shake. She felt lightheaded.

"Sis, stop," Kendall stepped forward finally, standing up to her sister.

"Aww.. Is the fox mad?" Alyson smirked as Zoe covered her ears, shaking.

"Ally, just stop." Kendall scolded her sister.

"Not now, sis," Alyson growled.

"Why are you here?" Nayah demanded.

"Because I love Brett," Alyson smirked.

"Wait what?" Nayah turned to Brett.

"Nayah, there's been something I've been keeping from you," Brett looked down guiltily.

"You're *cheating*, aren't you?" Nayah asked tearfully. She could feel her cheetah instinct start to kick in as she started to run to Snowflake Cave. K.C. chased after her, calling her name.

"Nayah, Alyson had been seeing me in the middle of the night sometimes, but I sent her away every time," Brett tried to explain.

"I can't believe it! Why didn't you tell me?" Nayah asked angrily.

"Xander threatened to make you cover for him if I told you." Brett sighed as Nayah gasped, realizing that he was telling her the truth.

"Really? How dare he!" Nayah snarled.

"Alyson and Brett belong together," Xander scoffed.

"Not true! My first girlfriend may have been Catherine, but I broke up with her and fled from her," Brett growled.

"Nayah, Chief's mad at you, babe." Xander smirked as Nayah suddenly collapsed, closing her eyes as she started to cry.

"You're lying, Xander," Xavier snarled.

"No, he's telling the truth," Nayah said honestly.

"Mm, what'd you do, though?" "Did you say the B word?" Xavier asked softly as Nayah shook her head. She had failed the first part of her training test.

"Nayah, that's bad!" Xavier said as Nayah explained to him.

"I know, but how did Xander know?" Nayah asked, eyeing Xander suspiciously.

"Chief told me," Xander lied.

"That's a lie!" K said, using lie detector.

"Mm, I thought you promised you'd quit lying, X." Xavier frowned, tears in his eyes.

"He was lying, Xander, I'm sorry," Chief said sympathetically.

"Chief, can you please not be mad at me?" Nayah begged.

"I'm gonna retest you, but you have to be focused."

"I promise," Nayah promised.

"Nayah, for your first part of the test, you must resist," Chief explained.

"Resist a temptation?" Nayah asked, feeling a little confused.

"Yes," Chief nodded. "You will be entering virtual reality and must resist a temptation. What I mean is, there will be a virtual person trying to steal Brett away from you. And you must try to resist someone trying to steal you away from him."

"C-Chief, I don't know," Nayah said.

"Nayah, I'm a part of the test. You can do this," Brett smiled.

"He's right, love, you've got this." Chief smiled.

"Okay," Nayah sighed.

The two of them entered the virtual world.

"Mm, I sense danger.." Nayah sighed.

A virtual version of Alyson appeared. She smirked at Brett. A virtual version of Edward appeared and smirked at Nayah.

"OK, OK, OK, breathe, breathe, breathe.." Nayah murmured.

"Hello, babe," Virtual Alyson smirked.

"Hello, butterfly," Virtual Edward said.

"We can do this, Nayah, we've got this." Brett smiled.

"Okay," Nayah sighed.

*"Close your eyes." "Let Shadow and I make the auwa awound you two bettew."* Landon murmured.

"Come with me, butterfly," Virtual Edward said.

"Come on, boo," Virtual Alyson smirked.

"Nayah, if we don't make it, just know that I love you." Brett murmured.

"Brett, we have to work together. I don't want to fail again!" Nayah pleaded.

*"In order to stay in balance, use one of your many talents." Chessie murmured.*

"Talents?" Nayah questioned.

"Dance and sing to make the bluebells ring." Chessie said softly.

"Look!" "See the chimes?"
