always .
so what do you think we should do ?
emily asked from my bed later on .
i swallowed the bit of strawberry that had been in my mouth .
i dont know , ambush them back ?
they might see that coming , she pointed out , and its really obvious .
well , they think we wont do that because that is exactly what they would be expecting , so by actually doing it , we can trick them , i rambled on and grabbed another strawberry .
emily tapped her lip with her pencil and straightened her pink pajamas .
i have no clue what you just said jazell .
i laughed , what i meant was that we should ambush them .
give them a piece of what they did to us .
emilys eyes lit up , you mean use water guns and water balloons i added .
and a trebuchet to launch the balloons !
emily scribbled furiously on her paper .
i can build one easily .
sweet , but when do we do it ?
all four of us hang out every day .
i can solve that problem .
we just tell them we want a day to do girl things and theyll butt right out , she slid onto the floor and snatched a strawberry .
i grinned , this is going to be some fun revenge !
you can say that again .
okay , i said , this is going to be some fun revenge .
she wacked me in the head with my pillow , youre so weird .
well thats the way i am , deal with it , i wacked her back with my own pillow .
no i will not deal with it , she walloped me in the head one more time .
i need you for team penguin , and i dont need a smarty pants .
how come you get to name the team ?
i asked .
because i was the one who got shot first .
early the next day , which wasnt that early because we got up around ten oclock , we gathered my old water gun and some water balloons .
emily brought down the trebuchet shed spent all night building and we took off on our bikes .
emily led the way to jasons where she was pretty sure the boys would be .
we hid our bikes in the trees and snuck up to their backyard .
jason and seth appeared to be setting up some airplane that they built from scratch .
they were muttering to each other and assembling a table they would use for a launch pad .
i grabbed my water gun and emily took out her trebuchet , with her balloons , and we snuck up on them .
i held my hand up to stop emily , waiting until jason and seth were grabbing the airplane out of a box and lowered my hand .
revenge !
i yelled , and ran out from behind the trees , with emily following .
the looks on their faces were priceless .
they spun around just in time as emily launched a balloon right at jasons face .
i aimed at seth , who i soaked in minutes .
their faces looked like they had seen a dinosaur come back to life .
jason scrambled away from emily but she nailed him so many times it didnt matter , he was already soaking wet .
the last of my water leaked out the back of the gun and we just stood there .
jason smiled but you could see he was hiding the anger in his face .
seth was emotionless ; he didnt give any sign on what he was feeling .
so you felt like getting us back ?
jason asked .
emily glared at him , you deserved it because you soaked us too .
so , he rolled his eyes , you thought you could just ambush us .
have you learned nothing and that we might want revenge now .
then you will and so on .
youve started a really long war .
who says the penguins cant win a war , huh ?
we just won right now , emily said .
the penguins ?
does that really matter ?
she hissed .
youre on .
jason smirked , alright then , penguins , if you want a water war , you got one .
youre on too !
this whole time seth didnt say a word , which was strange .
usually seth did all the talking while jason stood watching but now jason was doing all the talking and seth was the one watching .
he stood there and seemed unmoved from being soaked by my water gun .
his face was blank and he was staring at nothing .
it wasnt the seth i was friends with .
while emily and jason were bickering i said , seth ?
seth didnt answer .
he acted like he didnt hear me .
seth ?
hello earth to seth , i repeated .
no answer again .
seth is there something wrong ?
i whispered .
he didnt answer me again .
he continued to stare at the woods as if he expected a flying deer to leap out , wearing pink socks .
what the heck seth , are you deaf now ?
i waited for a sign that he heard me to appear on his face , but it remained blank .
emily huffed loudly , expect something from jazell and me soon jason .
were out of here .
see you around .
she grabbed my hand and pulled me away .
seth turned to see me leave and the look gave me a dark feeling inside .
his face was masked with one emotion , one that made me vow to myself that i would find out what he was hiding , what he was keeping a secret .
that emotion was not seth , not the one i knew .
it made me feel the same way and i didnt know why .
fear .
chapter 5 the water war continued with us getting them and them getting us .
we attacked them with a pool , and they threw water balloons at us while we were on bikes .
it was pretty simple , but the whole time all i noticed was seth .
he wasnt the same to me anymore ; he always had this mask on his face , hiding himself from the rest of us .
i had to find out what was wrong , and soon .
jazell , are you paying attention ?
emilys annoyed voice broke my day dreams .
i snapped back to attention , uh yes , i am emily .
just for the record , what are we talking about ?
jazell youre hopeless !
were talking about what to do next , she scowled .
wait , an idea jumped into my head , how about we meet under a truce .
