(OK. I'm being evil. Sorry Kris! But this is something me and Kirs just discovered: We might be related!! Dun dun duuuuunnn! Anyhow, I had to put this whole conversation in something, so here's my plan, and I may have to have you start Kris. Alexis and Atticus find out that they have a brother in Kentucky. Which is where some of Chazz's relatives live. So they may turn out to be related! ;D I know. I am so bad. But here we go! In 3...2...) Alexis joined the boys in the Obelisk commons. Jaden and Syrus weren't really supposed to be there, but no one ever argued with Zane or Chazz. So they got away with it. She strode up to her brother and held out a letter. "Did you know about this?" she asked. "Know about what?" Atticus looked up. "Dad got a call from Aunt Jane," Alexis said, "There's some kid staying with them that they say is Dad's first son. So he went in for a blood test and it came back positive." Atticus took the letter from her. "What?!" "You guys got another brother?" Jaden asked. "That no one apparently knew about..." Alexis said. "What are you guys? A bunch of hillbillies?" Zane grinned. Chazz started singing "I'm My Own Grandpa" until Alexis punched him in the shoulder. "How would that work?" Syrus asked. "Being your own grandpa?" "If you were a guy who married your grandma then you would be her grandchild, but you'd also be her husband so you would be your grandpa too." Chazz explained. "That doesn't make any sense..." Jaden said. "Makes perfect sense to me..." Chazz said. "That's cuz the Princeton's are all inbred." Zane pointed out. Chazz didn't argue. He didn't even take offense. Just shrugged. "Are you serious?" Jaden asked. "My mom is my dad's cousin." Chazz said. "And Gram is my grandma on my dad's side but my aunt on my mom's side-" "OK, TMI..." Syrus cut him off. "Where is this kid?" Atticus said, looking over the letter. "He's with Jane right now, but he lives in Kentucky." Alexis said. "I have cousins in Kentucky..." Chazz added. "You guys are hicks aren't you?" Zane asked. Chazz nodded. "Hey!" Chazz said, "Atticus! We could be related!" "Oh, God..." Alexis muttered. "How?" Atticus asked. Might as well humor Chazz. They'd lock him up soon anyway. "If he's your brother and my cousin, we'd be cousins too!" Chazz smiled. Now Zane was singing "I'm My Own Grandpa". Alexis hit him too. "We're not related Chazz..." Alexis sighed. "But that would be cool..." Chazz looked let down. "One way to find out," Atticus said, "When can we meet him?" (OK, now keep in mind, this is based on a true story! ;D lmao And I love that song. It does make sense to me. But then I'm related to have the kids in my school... XD I'm a hick.)

(We're like hillbillies, Cousin ;D. We need to do that....Say we're related on the Internet....If anyone asked, we're cousins. I shall throw in a made-up character because I have an idea...Dun Dun Duuuuuuun)
Kylie looked up at the group, she hadn't bother to say anything, instead she just listened to them talk. She walked over to them, abandoning the wall she had been leaning against. She grinned, "I have a brother in Kentucky." she said. "So we could all be related and not know it." she said. "Ooh! Lets all go to Kentucky...We can find out if we all are related in some way."
(Yes it's short but I ran out of ideas)

(Have you ever been to Kentucky? I have. I have cousins there too. It's not exactly big fun...cept for grabblin... XD)
"Yeah!" Chazz nudged Atticus, "Yeah, let's all go! We can take my dad's plane!" "Why would you want to go to Kentucky?" Zane asked Kylie, "Have you ever been to Kentucky? There's nothing to do...in Kentucky..." "There's always grabblin..." Chazz said. "What the hell is grabblin?" Jaden asked, "I know you're makin that one up." "If we all go, I can show you," Chazz said. "We're not going grabblin Chazz," Alexis said, "We're not going to Kentucky." "Why not?" Atticus asked. "You are not encouraging this?!" Alexis almost shouted. "Think about it Lex," Atticus said, "We get to go see this kid, and we don't have to study for finals. And I wanna go grabblin with Chazz." "Yeah!" Chazz grinned. "What the hell is grabblin?" Jaden repeated.
(I'll tell you what grabblin is later. I may even use it in this. It looks like fun. If it helps you at all, I can start callin it noodlin. Cuz that's another term for it. Grabblin's just the Tennessee word, so I figure they use it in Kentucky too.)

(Lets go noodlin ;D that sounds wrong....)
Kylie grinned, "I've been down there a few times. Once to take my brother down there, he's livin' with my Aunt and Uncle....I kinda wanna go see him. Come on it would be fun just to spend a week down there. It gives us an excuse to not have to take the finals until later which will give us more time to study when we get back and everything." Kylie said.

(lmao ;D I know. But so does grabblin if you think about it. XD)
"Screw finals," Chazz shrugged, "I wanna go noodlin." "Now, wait, you said grabblin before," Jaden said, "What's noodlin?" "Same thing. Just depends on where you're from how you say it," Chazz explained. "OK, well don't use noodlin," Jaden said. "Why?" "It sounds wrong. Think about it." "The only thing I think about when someone says noodlin is catfish, OK? And I'll tell you why when we get there." Chazz said and went off toward his room. "Where are you going?" Zane asked. "To pack," Chazz smiled at Kylie. "Me too!" she said and ran off in the other direction, toward her room. The other boys ran off too. They cared less about the long lost brother than finding out what noodlin was. "We're not going!" Alexis shouted after them all. She glared at Chazz on the stairs. "Want me to call my dad?" he asked innocently.

Kylie grinned as she ran into her room, "We have to go!" she yelled as she started packing some things. It would be fun going to Kentucky, she hadn't been down there in a while so it would be different.
(I'm stuck lol)

"Come on, Lex," Chazz said as she walked up the stairs, "We can go noodlin together!" He grinned. She stopped level with him and said, "OK, first, don't get too excited, cuz I doubt that'll happen. And second," she poked him in the nose, "I'm gonna get you for this one Chazz." She went off up the stairs. Chazz was still grinning after her. "Maybe we can catch some catfish too!" he called.
SCENE CHANGE
(OK, I did a scene change, but Kris is gonna start it. ;D Hee! Also, I would have run after that comment if I were him, cuz she'd come back down and beat his ass. XD)

(You're evil! Fine it'll be on the plane ;D)
Kylie stared out the window of the plane, looking overly excited. Last time she was on a plane was when she was little, like hell if she could remember being on a plane back then. "Are we there yet?" she asked with a sigh as she sat back in her seat. Well, she was quiet for half of the plane ride, until her iPod wouldn't play because she forgot to charge it the night before. And she didn't have much luck with her laptop so she was screwed. Now, just for the hell of annoying everyone else, every five minutes she would ask 'are we there yet?'

"No..." everyone muttered in unison. "OK," Jaden turned to Chazz, "You're drivin me crazy. What is grabblin?" "Do you wanna know or do you wanna do it?" Chazz asked. "We can't do it if you tell me?" Jaden asked. "You won't want to," Chazz grinned. "Try me," Jaden steeled himself. "Grabblin is the ancient redneck art of catfish wrestling." Chazz stated. How he said it with a straight face Jaden didn't know. Jaden started laughing. "Are you kiddin me?" he asked. "No," Chazz said, "It's harder than it sounds. You go and stand out in the river and move rocks around until you find one. But then you gotta wrestle the fish out of the water using only your hands. Me and my cousin Ray, we went grabblin last summer and caught one almost three feet long." "That's easy," Jaden said, "Gettin a fish out of the water." "With just your hands," Chazz reminded him. "Easy," Jaden shook his head and turned back around. "We'll see, slacker..." Chazz muttered.

(lol)
"Easier said then done," Kylie said, "I watched my cousin do it once. How anyone can do something like that is beyond even me...I would look stupid trying to catch a fish." with that, she looked back out the window and not even a minute later she asked, "Are we there yet?" ;D

(Drive on? ...Drive on!)
SCENE CHANGE
The kids were more trouble at the airport than on the plane; Jaden and Syrus talked nonstop and no one could keep track of Kylie. Walking through the terminal, Zane grabbed Chazz's arm and pulled him back. "What did you do that for?" he asked. "Do what?" Chazz said. "Chazz, if he drowns or something-" Zane started. "He's not gonna drown!" Chazz said, "Zane, you've been grabblin...you know that..." "Yeah, I've been," Zane said, "But Jaden hasn't." "If he thinks he can do it, let him do it," Chazz shrugged. "Don't whip him too bad though, OK?" Zane smiled. Chazz grinned. "Who exactly are we meeting here?" Zane asked. "Please don't say Ray..." "No, we're meeting-" "What's up Chuck?" they heard someone say. He slurred the last two words together -upchuck- and Chazz knew immediately who it was. "Hey Charlie," he waved feebly. The rest of the group stared at the new boy. He could have been Chazz's twin.

Kylie, who was now standing next to Atticus stared from Charlie to Chazz and then back to Charlie. 'Chazz Clone...Just what we need....' she thought to herself. "Who's this Chazz?" she asked.

"This is my cousin Charlie," Chazz said. "You guys have the same name?" Jaden asked. "Kind of..." Charlie said. "Want me to give you a headache, Jaden?" Chazz asked. "Sure," Jaden shrugged. "OK," Chazz started, "There are two Charles Princeton's in this family, alright? Me and my cousin Charlie. But we can always tell each other apart. See, everyone back home calls me Chazz. Except my mom...she's calls me Charles, always, cuz she says if that's what she named me that's what she's gonna call me. And my Dad calls me Chuck. So everyone around here calls me Chuck. Just like everyone around here calls him Chazz. But us back home call him Charlie. Make sense?" "No..." Jaden muttered. "Good!" the two cousins smirked. Twins.
