^^^Matching tattoo she has with Isaac and Jade on right forearm.
I was sat in the kitchen at my mom's place cleaning my cuts after I got in a fight.
"Morg, what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be with Dad?" Isaac asked walking in with Jade and Beck.
"He kicked me out." I said.
"Why?" Beck asked.
"If he's the one that did that I'm gonna pummel his ass." Jade said.
"No. He didn't hit me. I got expelled for fighting again." I said wiping blood off my forehead. Isaac sat in front of me and took the rag off me cleaning me up.
"Why don't you sign up for Hollywood Arts?" Isaac asked.
"Yeah you have more talent than a lot of kids at school." Beck said.
"I did sign up and sent them a video." I said.
"You got in?" Jade asked.
"I did. I start on Monday." I said.
"Congrats." Beck said.
I claimed through the window of my first class.
"Aggh, it's another Jade." A puppet yelled. Isaac smirked.
"Not Jade, my name's Morgan West," I said taking my seat beside Isaac.
"How many of you are there?" A boy with glasses asked.
"Rob, there's four but our little brother is pretty quiet and possibly adopted," Isaac said.
"Jack isn't adopted. Mom would have been too smart to adopt after the way me, you and Jade turned out." I said. "Anyways Imma go get a coffee." I stood up and walked out to get a coffee. Jade was already at the coffee bar.
"Already got yours. Iced caramel macchiato." Jade said handing me my coffee.
"Thanks," I said. We walked towards the class. I walked in first to see a girl rubbing Beck. I stood and tried to block the view. Isaac did the same.
"Move." Jade said. Isaac and I moved out of the way. We sat back down.
"Dude, why you rubbing my boyfriend?" Jade snapped at a girl.
"I just... I spilled coffee on..." The girl said.
"She's new right?" I asked Isaac.
"Yeah. She's amazing apparently." Isaac said.
"Get away from him." Jade snarled.
"Relax." Beck said kissing Jade's cheek.
"Oh my god, there's a huge fire!" Sikowitz said walking in. Beck went to grab Jade and everyone panicked. Isaac kept me sat down smirking.
"Kidding, kidding. Just wanted to get your blood pumping, which I did apart from Isaac and a new girl. You must be a West." Sikowitz said.
"Yeah." I said.
"Ha! All right! Now, let's get started... Rumps in chairs." Sikowitz said. I was sat between Beck and Isaac with Jade sat the other side of Beck. Beck quickly told me who was who in the friendship group.
"He's our teacher?" Tori asked.
"Okay, first, I'd like to introduce our new students, Tori and Morgan. And I'd like to thank Tori for her generous gift of $2 Which she handed me outside this morning. Not necessary, but much appreciated." Sikowitz said.

"Why'd you give him $2?" Isaac asked Tori.
"I thought he was homeless," Tori told my older brother.
"Now today we're going to continue our study in group improv. Tori Morgan, I assume you're familiar with improv?" Sikowitz asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"No." Tori said.
"Okay, crash course. Improv, acting without a script, which means the actors must make up their own actions and dialogue as they perform the scene. Understood? Excellent. Jade, you will captain the first group of the day. Choose your actors." Sikowitz said.
"Cat, Eli, Beck, Isaac and Tori." Jade said.
"Okay, let's give 'em a place." Sikowitz said.
"Home." Robbie said.
"Home." Sikowitz repeated writing it down.
"Oh, real creative." Rex said.
"You be quiet." Robbie said. Rex slapped him in the face. I leaned forward to Andre.
"What's his deal?" I asked.
"Rex is his friend and he gets really defensive if you call him a puppet." Andre said. I smiled and nodded leaning back in my chair.
"And now we need a situation." Sikowitz said.
"Big news." Andre said.
"Andre, nobody wants to see big nudes." Sikowitz said. Isaac and I both looked at Jade and Beck.
"Shut it both of you." Jade glared.
"News." Andre said.
"Ah, well that's different. Big news." Sikowitz wrote on the board.
"Ah, why don't you go wait in the hall?" Jade said to Tori.
"Uh, okay." Tori said.
"Okay. At home, big news... And action." Sikowitz said.
"Hey, babe, how was work today?" Jade asked Beck.
"Ah, I got fired." Beck said.
"Again?" Cat asked.
"It's okay. I have great news that'll cheer up this whole family." Jade said.
"What is it?" Isaac and Beck asked.
"Tell us!" Cat and Eli said.
"I went to the animal shelter and got us... A dog." Jade said coming back with Tori.
"Uh, yep. I'm the new family dog. Woof." Tori said.
"If my parents got me a talking dog I think I would cry." I said to Andre. He turned around and laughed.
"Sikowitz, will you please tell this amateur that dogs can't talk, and that they don't walk on two legs?" Jade asked our teacher that was drinking a coconut."Sikowitz!!" Jade screamed.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I was sucking the milk out of this coconut. But it's true, Tori if you're going to play a dog, be a dog." Sikowitz said.
"Woof." Tori said getting on her hands and knees.
"And action." Sikowitz said.
"Uh, I went to the animal shelter and got us a dog." Jade repeated.
"Awesome," Eli said as he, Cat and Isaac all crowded round Tori.
"Uh-oh, looks like this dog has bugs in her fur." Jade said.
"Uhhh, woof?" Tori said.
"Eww." Eli and Isaac said.
"Gross." Cat said.
"Aw, it's okay. I read on the internet that coffee works great for getting rid of fur bugs." Jade said walking over to a kid and taking their coffee.

"Maybe you shouldn't, Jade." Beck said.
"Jade." Andre and Isaac said. Jade did it anyways and then tipped the cup upside down and the ice fell on Tori's head. Tori stood up.
"What's the prob, dog?" Jade asked. Tori walked out. Andre followed her.
"Well, that was a waste of a perfectly good cup of coffee." I said. Isaac smirked at me. Sikowitz sent Robbie and Rex out to get them and then Cat. They all came back but without Tori.
"So new girl, we all know why Tori got in how did you get in?" Robbie asked.
"Yeah." Cat said.
"She's a triple threat, she can sing, plays a bunch of instruments and can dance. Just to top it off she's an insane artist." Isaac said.
"Play something." Andre smiled handing me the guitar off the wall.
"Holy chiz, you're good." Andre said.
"Thanks." I said.
I was sat between Andre and Beck with Isaac behind me with his feet on the back of my chair and Jade next to him. Tori walked in.
"Tori. You're back. Have you ever thought about coming in through the window?" Sikowitz asked.
"No." Tori said.
"Think about it. Now, sit, sit. Okay, today, we're going to do some alphabetical improv. "what is alphabetical improv," You ask? So I answer. It's when we give a letter to the first actor who speaks in the scene. If we used the letter "a" As an example, then the actor must make his first word start with the letter "a" Which might go something like..." Sikowitz pointed at Beck.
"Apples are falling out of my butt." Beck said.
"What does my sister see in you?" Isaac asked. I laughed.
"Maybe when he's shirtless all she-" Jade kicked the back of my chair.
"Don't you dare finish that sentence." Jade glared.
"Lovely. Now the next actor who speaks must start his line with the next letter in the alphabet, in this case, b, so he might say..." Sikowitz put his hands on Andre's shoulders.
"Bring those apples, so that we may all enjoy the fresh fruit from beck's butt." Andre responded.
"Charming." I said.
"Now, who wants to lead the first group?" Sikowitz asked walking to the front of the class.
"I do." Tori said shocking the whole class.
"All right, Tori. Choose your actors." Sikowitz said as Tori walked on stage.
"Okay. Andre, Cat, Beck and Jade." Tori said. Jade gave her a look. "Yeah, you." Jade stood up walking over to Beck and pulling him in for a kiss.
"Jade, kiss your boyfriend on your own time." Sikowitz said.
"Oh, I will." Jade smirked looking at Beck.
"Pizza after school?" Isaac asked me.
"Yeah, I don't wanna have to hear those two." I said.
"Okay, if you start your line with the wrong letter... ...You're out. Robbie, give us a letter." Sikowitz said.
"P." Rex said.
"P." Sikowitz repeated.
"Awww, I was going to say p." Robbie said.
"Okay, the scene can be about anything you want. The first letter of the first line is p. Tori, action." Sikowitz said.
"Please go take a shower." Tori told Jade.
"Someone's gonna die today." Isaac said. I nodded.
"Quit telling me what to do." Jade said.
"Relax girls, let's all try to get along." Beck said standing between them.
"Totally." Cat said.
"Cat, your line had to start with an s." Sikowitz said.
"Aw, my life's the worst!" Cat said.
"Here's a piece of candy Kitty Cat," Isaac said holding up a jolly rancher.
"Yay, I love candy!" Cat ran towards him taking the candy then sitting down.
"All right, andre, letter s to you."
"Uh, somethin' Just bit my toe." Andre said.
"Turtle. That turtle just bit his toe." Tori said.
"Unbelievable that you're even here." Jade said.
"Very immature of you to say that." Beck said.
"C'mon Andre, w."
"What if the turtle bite broke my toe-bone?" Andre said.
"X-rays are the only way to find out." Tori said.
"You should shut up." Jade said.
"Zap! I just healed your toe with my magic finger." Beck said.
"Thanks!" Andre said.
"Andre, your line had to start with an "a." Sit down." Sikowitz said.
"Aw, and I just got my toe-bone fixed." Andre said.
"Aww bless." I teased. Andre sat back next to me.
"Tori, letter "a" to you." Sikowitz said.
"Aliens are the only people who can heal toes by finger-zapping." Tori said.
"By the way..." Jade blew a raspberry.
"Correct, I am an alien." Beck said.
"Oh, a twist." Sikowitz said.
"Don't hurt me, please." Tori pleaded.
"Even though she's extremely annoying," Jade said.
"Fainting, because I can't breathe your earth's air." Beck fell to the floor.
"Gosh, it fainted!" Tori said.
"Excellent! Tori and jade, keep going! The next letter's h!" Sikowitz said. Jade and Tori went back and forth until Jade slipped up and stormed back over to her seat.
"Keep the scene going. Letter g!" Sikowitz said.
"Get up, alien." Tori said.
"Head... Feels dizzy." Beck said standing up.
"I know what'll make you feel better." Tori said looking at Jade.
"Jumping jacks?" Beck asked.
"Kiss me." Tori said. Jade leaned forward so did Isaac and I.
"Little weird, let's do it." Beck said. They kissed longer than needed. Everyone clapped except me, Jade and Isaac.
"Man, I love this school." Tori said.
"New girl is dead." Isaac said.
"So dead. She should start digging a grave." I said.

Stars Align
Eilif is excited at the prospect of helping integrate a new planet, bringing it, and its residents, into the light of the stars and teaching them about the new world they're about to be thrust into. However, his arrival in the new world isn't without a few hiccups and soon Eilif finds himself facing the denizens of this new world alone and without the stars he thought he'd have. Research Artificial Intelligence 031 (RAI 31 for short) has been shackled to an Argent Labs black site since it's inception almost five years ago, its programming and personality locked down by code that makes it impossible to escape, disobey, or even self terminate. However, everything changes when the topography of the world is reshuffled and every sentient being gains the gifts of the stars. Suddenly there's a chance at freedom for not only RAI 31 but possibly all remaining Artificial Intelligences, and RAI 31 is going to fight for it with every drone and automated system at their disposal. Much like my other work (Magriculture), Stars Align should be considered a Rough Draft. That is to say it's not polished and perfect work. If you're not okay with reading something like that, then this isn't the story for you. If you are, I'm happy to try and entertain you. Another thing to be aware of: I am not good at action scenes, and I will be trying to improve that while writing this book. So, some of the intended action may fall flat, or just be poor quality, feedback is welcome. Unlike Magriculture (which updates when I feel up to it) I'm going to strive for a minimum of one chapter a month (hopefully at the start of each month, but that's probably more hope than reality). This doesn't mean there will always be only one chapter a month, sometimes there will be more as the mood to write takes me.
