Before we start this chapter, I wanted to tell you guys something. Scorpio have been the main character in almost all the chapters and the reason why is............ My favorite zodiac sign is Scorpio and I act more like a Scorpio. (I'm a Saggitarius btw) I will try to write more chapters that have someone else as the main character if you any ideas, let me know in the comments! Also, I have been  "using" cuss words in this book....I'm sorry if you felt offended 😭😭😭

Warning: Swearing/cuss words, violence, blood, abuse

Leo's Pov
"AHH! HELP ME!" "What did you do?" "I figured out Scorpio's fear is spiders, so I put some fake spiders on her and now she's trying to kill me!" "You shouldn't have done that. No one messes with Scorpio. Have fun dying!" "....You're supposed to help me Capri....." "I think I'll keep reading this book. I tried to prank Scorpio, but she avoided it and chased after me." "Oh! That's why you were running around and hiding from Scorpio!" "LEO GET YOUR F***ING A** HERE!" "AHHHHHHH! I'M SORRY SCORPIO!" Scorpio was really scary when she's mad. That's why no one tries to mess with her or prank her. I have been running for 2 hours and Scorpio have been chasing me for 2 hours. Where does she get her energy from? "Leo." . Uh oh. "Hahaha....Scorpio.....maybe you could give me a pass?" "No one pranks me and gets away unharmed." She hitted me as hard as she could and I screamed in pain. "OWWW! DID YOU PRACTICE HITTING PEOPLE IN THE PAST?!" Scorpio froze. "Scorpio? Are you okay?" She didn't answer me. Virgo walked in and saw Scorpio. "Oh, umm...she's okay.....she just needs some rest." Virgo dragged her away, leaving me alone. I hope she's okay....

Scorpio's Pov
I couldn't think or move. All the bad memories flooded my mind. The painful hits. The blood spilling out of my wounds. The cold metal touching my skin, daring me to make an another move. I felt someone dragging me away. I snapped out of my trance and started crying. "Shh.....it's okay Scorpy...you're safe....." "Virgo-I hurted him!" "It's okay. He didn't bleed and he's okay." "Virgo...." I felt so helpless and fragile. I was crying like a baby and Virgo was comforting me. What is wrong with me? "Virgo, my parents used to beat me up and hit me hard. They would abuse me and accuse me for cheating and lying. I hurted Leo because of a harmless prank! What am I? A monster?" "No Scorpio. You are an angel. A lot people don't care if the person they harmed is okay. They don't regret their decision. I love you Scorpio and I'll never hate you." He loves me. He will never hate me. Somone actually cared about me. Virgo wasn't lying. I smiled. I might not be able to change the past, but I can change the future. I kissed Virgo and he kissed me back. "I love you Virgo."

Capricorn's Pov
We were having an another slumber party and Taurus suggested that we should play 15 questions. (is it called 15 questions? It's a game where two people ask each other 15 (?) questions.) Everyone agreed and we put our names in a hat and Taurus randomly picked two. "Scorpio and Leo. Aries and Pisces. Me and Gemini. Cancer and Aries. Virgo and Aquarius. Capricorn and Libra." We went to seperate rooms and started the game.

Scorpio's Pov
"So...I'll go first?" "Yeah. Look, I'm really sorry about hitting you." "Nah, it's okay. I guess I deserved that." "Anyways, you can start first." "Okay! When is your birthday?" "November 3. How about you?" "August 21. What is your favorite food?" "Noodles. What is your favorite color?" "Mine is gold. How about you?" "Scarlet or light purple. What is your favorite song?" "Shake it off by Taylor Swift. What about you?" "Sweet but psycho by Ava Max. (one of my favorite songs btw) What launguages can you speak?" "French and English. How about you?" "Spanish, Japanese, and English." "Cool!" "Thanks. Who is your crush?" "Promise me you won't tell anyone." "Fine." "Aries." "Gemini's dating him though." "I know." "....I'm sorry..." "It's fine. I kind of like Libra though." "Oh okay."

Libra's Pov
"What is your favorite fruit?" "Mango. What is your favorite book?" "The Giver." "I read that book! I heard they made a movie!" "Yeah me too. We should watch it together! Since no one likes books except us, Taurus and I think Virgo's going crazy." "To tell the truth, I think Scorpio is one of the sane ones when she's with Virgo." "I think Virgo goes insane when he's with Scorpio." "Yeah I know. Too bad they can't be insane together." We looked at each other and laughed. "I just noticed this. When did I like books?" "I don't know." "Why?" "Because I'm not you?"

(after everyone was done)

Gemini's Pov
"Let's party!!" Leo turned on some music and we began to dance and sing. The rest of the fire signs joined and everyone was laughing. This group gets crazier everyday. "LET IT GO~! LET IT GO~! CAN'T HOLD IT BACK ANYMORE! LET IT GO! LET IT GO~! TURN AWAY AND SLAM THE DOOR! I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO SAY~! LET THE STORM RAGE ON....THE COLD NEVER BOTHERED ME ANYWAY~!" Scorpio was covering her ears and Virgo was rubbing her back. Capricorn noticed and turned off the song. "Guys, let's respect everyones ear." "Fine. You're no fun Cappy." "Cappy?" "Yeah. Cappy. It's your new nickname!" "And I thought Capri was bad."

Sagittarius's Pov
Everyone decided to play hide and seek after calming down. Capricorn and Scorpio was the seeker. I ran towards my room and went inside the closet. Wait. This is too predictable. I should hide in the bathroom! I went inside the bathroom and hid in the tub. "READY OR NOT, HERE WE COME!"

Scorpio's Pov
"Oh Virgo~!" "Where are you babe?"
I kicked Virgo's (room) door open and opened his closet. Pisces looked at me and screamed. "Found you Pisces! Am I that scary?" "No. I was just surprised." I sighed and went to Capricorn's room. I saw Leo hiding under the bed. Really Leo? "Leo, I can see you from here." "Dang it!" 8 people left. "Wait. I wanted to give you this." "Water? Why?" "Drink it all and if you have to go, then go to the second floor bathroom." Okay....that was weird."I drank the water and went to find the others.

Capricorn's Pov
I went to the swimming pool. I looked around and saw Cancer sneaking away. "Found you Cancer!" "I was so close!" I went back inside and searched the the trash can. I saw a lock of red hair and pulled it. "Oww!" "Found you Aries. You better take a shower after this game is over."

(2 hours later)

Capricorn's Pov (again)
"How many people are left?" "I found 2 people-I saw you Virgo." "You found 3 people and I found 2 people. That means 5 people are left. We should team up. Let's discuss where we should go." "Okay, but I have to go to the restroom before we do that." "Go quick." I heard a scream from the bathroom and when I went to see what was wrong, Scorpio and Sagittarius was shouting at each other. "Guys, what happened?" "I was about to p***, but this guy here was hiding in the restroom. He scared me half to death!" "We're playing hide and seek! What do you expect?" "Sagittarius, who hides in a bathroom?" "Where should I hide?" "I don't know! A closet, box, under the bed, outside....what were you thinking?" "It's called hide and seek. I can hide in the bathroom! There was no rules about hiding in the bathroom!" "That's because no one exp-" "Guys, can you "talk" outside of the bathroom? I have to go really badly!" "Sorry Scorpio." I dragged Sagittarius outside and scold him. "You could have invaded Scorpio's privacy Sagittarius!" "Well I didn't invade her privacy!" "YOU ARE GROUNDED FOR A WEEK AND NO COMPLAINING OR I'LL MAKE YOU SLEEP IN THE BATHROOM FOR 3 WEEKS!" "YOU'RE NOT THE LEADER! ARIES IS!" "OH YEAH? WHY DON'T WE ASK HER?" "Aries, this b**** here thought hiding in the bathroom was a good idea. He hid in the tub and when Scorpio was going to p***." "WHAT?! SAGITTARIUS, ARE YOU DUMB? YOU ARE GROUNDED FOR 5 WEEKS!" "NO FAIR! I HATE YOU!" "NO CANDY OR DESSERT FOR 1 MONTH!" "I HATE HIDE AND SEEK!"

Scorpio's Pov
Sagittarius is getting grounded for 5 weeks? Aries went hard on him! The other zodiacs came out of their hiding place to see what happened and let's say Sagittarius is probably dead now. Virgo was really concerned and he yelled at Aries because 5 weeks was not enough. I pulled him away and kissed him. He calmed down and apologized to Aries. This group have gone insane. I went to Sagittarius's room to check on him and I got an angry Sagittarius who started swearing at me. He got grounded for 3 weeks. Oh well. School is starting soon. I hope I get same classes with Virgo.
