Blake Lilian Scott is my name. I live with my twin brother Lucas and my mom. What happens when my twin joins the Raven's basketball game and comes face to face with our younger brother Nathan.

"Let's go B. We have to get Peyton, Haley and Brooke out of jail.''
''Jail?!"
I walk over to luke as we exit the house.
''What the hell happened?''
''No idea.''
We got all the money we needed and went to the jail.
''We'd like to bail out Haley Scott, Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer.'' I grin, handing over the money.
''But can you wait ten minutes to get Brooke Davis?'' Luke asked, making the woman smile.
As we walk away, I gave my brother a look.
''Petty. Just Petty.''
''Dont i know it.''
''You guys alright?'' I asked, seeing Haley and Peyton.
''Yeah, um, guys, did you not pay for Brooke?'' Haley looks around.
''We paid for her; I just had them wait an extra ten minutes before they let her go.'' Luke smirks.
''He did. Petty.'' I said, making Haley nod at me.
''So, you're just screwing with her?'' Peyton gaped, as we walked out the door.
''And you don't think she's screwed with me?! Non-exclusive dating, the costume for the masquerade party... that Fantasy Boy Draft misunderstanding. Look, I've done everything she's asked me to do since she got back and what do I get? Oo, front row seat to her and Keller in bed together.''
I shrug at the girls as we continued after my twin.
'' Well,'Luke, wait, just stop! OK?It's not like you don't have a right to be upset but... at least wait five minutes and talk to her and then give her a ride home.'' Haley snapped.
''Can't do that. Are you guys coming?'' He looked at the two, knowing I was coming with him.
'' I-I gotta be at the studio right now and I can't wait for her.'' Haley rambles, looking at Peyton.
''It's OK. I'll wait for her.''
''OK, thank you.''
''Lucas, what am I supposed to tell Brooke?''
''Tell her to call Chris Keller.''
''PETTY." I state again, walking to the car.
Luke and I walk over to mom outside of the council room.
''You OK?'' i asked.
'' Oh, just a little nervous. You know, polls are open in, uh,in a few minutes. I give my final address.''
''Mom, Dan just told me he thinks someone tried to kill him.''
"He did. He was dead set that someone tried to murder him.'' I nodded.
''The fire was ruled an accident.'' Mom said looking away stubbornly.
''But what if it wasn't? You know, and what if he does have proof?'' I ask as Luke opens his mouth
''Is winning this election worth the risk... ? You know, maybe you should... concede, mom.'' Luke said, making mom and I both give him a look.
'' Final statements, Karen. These came for you.And you know I have to stand by Dan tonight I-I just... good luck.'' Deb said as she handed mom some flowers before walking away.
''They're from Andy.''
Luke and I smile at one another, seeing our mother's eyes light up.
''Thank you.A few minutes ago, my son and daughter asked me how important this election was to me... and my answer to them is that it's very important. But what's more important – believing in your fellow man; having faith in a persons character; trusting that a person is who we think they are and... defending that trust until we're given proof beyond a reasonable doubt that we should no longer do so. With that said,... I wish to concede. But not the election. I wish to concede that when I decided to run for mayor, I underestimated my opponent... and the depths to which he will go to hurt and to humiliate others. You have seen the commercials... you have seen the real Dan Scott. Now do the right thing... and vote for Karen Roe.''
Luke and I clap from our spot as mom finished her speech. My smile turned into a frown at Dan stepped up to the podium.
''My opponent's decided to write me off... based on a recent video that I'm sure you've all seen. Well, I'd like to tell you that that video is a fabrication – a fake. I'd like to tell you that... but I'm afraid that would be a lie. It's an accurate depiction of a man at his worst... and I'm not proud of it. And so, today, I ask for understanding; for forgiveness. For a second chance. I'm sorry.They say identification is the first step to recovery. I stand before you, a man who woke up. I am not perfect. I'm just a guy trying to be a good husband, and a father who sometimes comes up short... and if you elect me, you'll be electing a work in progress... but you'll also be electing a man who'll never put himself above any of you! Or above the town that I love.I woke up to be your mayor... and I promise never to sleep on the job again.''
I scoff at the man, not even flinching when his fake apologetic face looked at me.
Mom didn't win. Dan did. Luke and I shared a look as we walked over to Deb.
''Makes you wonder, huh?'' I asked, stepping to one side as Luke goes on the other.
''Do the wicked never lose?'' Luke added.
''Hi, Lucas, Blake.How's your mom doing?''
''... She's worried about you.'' Luke said.
''She just doesn't know it...Yet.'' I said, looking at the older woman.
''Whaddaya mean?''
I look as Luke hands her a piece of burnt paper. it had 'For everything you've done' written on it.
''That's the last shred of evidence.'' Lucas said, motioning towards the paper.
''As far as we know,... there's nothing else to tie you to this, Deb.'' I state, giving her a stern look.
''Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention, please. I have just received word that in a matter of minutes, the votes will be in, and VICTORY WILL BE OURS!'' Dan announced.
''He knows it wasn't an accident.'' I informed staring into the older woman's eyes .
''But he doesn't have proof.''
''They said we were beaten! They said we were dead!'' Dan continued.
''Maybe this can finally set you free.''
''But they should know by now; You can't kill Dan Scott!'' Dan yelled, eyes scanning the room.
'Hi mommy.' i smile, sliding in bed with her.
''Hey babe.''
''I'm sorry you didn't win.''
''Yeah, I'm more worried about this town.''
''Tell me about it. Dan's going to ruin everyone's lives now.'' i rolled my eyes.
Mom nodded her head.
''Mom?''
''Yeah?''
''Do you think if you'd stay with Dan, that he'd be like this?''
''I wouldn't have stayed with Dan. He was always a jackass in some way.''
''Is that why you were always afraid to admit you're in love with Uncle Keith?'' I asked.
