Aquarius was in his apartment when someone knocked at the door. He got up from the kitchen table and unlocked it.

"My best friend!" Pisces gave Aquarius a hug.

"Come on," Cancer walked in after Pisces and pulled him over to the table where Taurus and Gem already sat.

"Where's Sag?" asked Pisces.

Taurus shrugged. "She didn't show up."

Gem checked her phone. She read a text out loud. "I can't come today. Me and Aries pranked Leo so now she's locking us both in the house for the entire weekend. I'll show up if we sneak out before you guys are finished! By the way, I'd appreciate it if someone came over to distract Leo so we can escape. She locked the windows from the outside and everything. Hi it's Aries how dare you make plans without me. Don't mind her. AFHRFHBGUGHHH ARIES STOP TRYING TO TAKE MY PHONE ngggxykrdchbcd MAKEfnygjvhhghn ME. Okay the rest of the texts are a bunch of random letters and Sagittarius and Aries fighting over the phone."

"Didn't Capricorn say he'd join our group?" asked Taurus.

Gem shrugged. "He's probably still sleeping to be honest."

Aquarius stuck his hands in his pockets. "So, what are we going to discuss today?"

"Our next victim!" announced Pisces.

Taurus nodded. "It's between Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra and Virgo or Scorpio."

"We have Sag. We stand a good chance at getting Aries to join us," suggested Gem.

"If we get Cap, Gemini should join us too," announced Cancer.

"Let's go for Virgo!" suggested Pisces.

Everyone heard a door open and close. Virgo walked over to them. "What are you saying about me?"

"We're talking about how much we despise you," joked Pisces. Cancer elbowed him.

"Where are you going?" asked Aquarius as Virgo slipped on his shoes.

"Scorpio's two day pranking camp. I can't wait!" said Virgo with fake enthusiasm.

Taurus laughed. "She told me about that yesterday. Good luck!"

"Thanks! I'll need it." Virgo left.

As soon as the door closed, Capricorn swung the door open. "I'm here!"

Gem nodded. "We can see that."

"He joined us!" Cancer pointed his finger in Pisces' face. "Haha mine and Taurus' plan worked."

"Haha." Pisces bit Cancer's finger.

Cancer pulled his hand away. "Don't eat my finger!"

"Don't point it in my face."

"Anyway," Taurus changed the topic, "sit anywhere you want."

"But there's only one chair left, so I don't really have a choice," chuckled Capricorn as he sat down.

Gem cleared her throat. "Anyway-"

"So this is where all the losers meet up."

Everyone turned to see Gemini in the door way.

Gem crossed her arms. "Why are you here?"

Gemini shrugged. "Because I want to join your group!"

"Yeah!" Cancer high fived Pisces.

Gem glanced at Gemini suspiciously. "What happened to I'll never join your group, under any circumstances, whatsoever, over my dead body?"

Gemini smirked. "I never said that."

"Yes you did! You texted it to me yesterday!"

"What an active imagination you've got. Now, where can I sit?"

"There's no chairs left," replied Aquarius.

"Okay." Gemini went over and sat on Capricorn's lap.

Capricorn blushed. "Get off me you idiot!"

"No."

Taurus noticed how close Gemini was acting with Capricorn and how he didn't say anything to her, but she didn't think too much of it.

Aquarius looked at Gem, Pisces, Cancer, and Taurus. "Well that narrows it down."

"Narrows what down?" asked Capricorn.

"Who it next victim is," replied Pisces.

Gem looked at Gemini and Capricorn. "Our options are Aries, Leo, Virgo, Libra and Scorpio.

"We'll stand a better chance of getting Aries and Leo first," announced Taurus. "Leo hates Virgo so she won't join if we get him first."

"How do you know that?" asked Gem.

"At home, Libra keeps asking why Leo hates Virgo so much. She knows why, but she finds it hard to believe that she won't get over it."

"Wait. Why does she hate him?" asked Gem.

"She can't admit her feelings of love," teased Pisces.

"Leo does NOT like Virgo," laughed Gemini.

"You're right!" Pisces made a heart with his hands. "She loves him."

Taurus rolled her eyes. "Yeah... no. I really don't think that's what's going on, but you can keep being delusional if it pleases you."

Pisces shrugged. "Leogo... VirLeo... ahh they don't have any good ship names. Never mind, I won't ship it."

"So, we've decided on Aries and Leo?" asked Aquarius.

Gem nodded. "Let's get Aries first. Aries is closer with Sagittarius, and if we get Aries, we'll guaranteed get Leo."

"Yay. We're going to be friends with crazy Saggi, and insane Aries," said Capricorn sarcastically. "Gemini get off my lap, you're heavy."

"No I'm not," retorted Gemini. "Your legs are weak."

"No they're-"

"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeak."

"Gemi-"

"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeak."

"S-"

"WeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeak."

Capricorn pushed Gemini on the floor. "Get lost if you're here to cause trouble."

Gemini smirked and sat back on Capricorn's lap. "I'll behave. I promise!"

"ANYWAY," shouted Gem. "How will we get Aries?"

Taurus shrugged. "It's quite easy, just promise her some cheesecake!"

"We actually have some in the fridge." Aquarius walked over to the fridge, took out a plate with a few pieces of cheesecake, and set it on the table. "Here Ari, Ari."

Everyone heard a window open.

"Wait," said Capricorn. "Is that actually her-"

Sagittarius ran in the room panting heavily. "We... climbed... up through... your half open... window. What did I... miss? Oh look it's Capri...corn and Gemini.... Woohoo more friends!"

"How did you get in through my window?" asked Aquarius. "We're on the THIRD FLOOR!"

Sagittarius shrugged. "You say that like it's a problem."

Aries ran in after her, breathing just as heavily. "LEO'S COMING!"

"SEE YA LATER! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Sagittarius ran out through the door. Aries grabbed the plate of cheesecake and followed. Both of their screams echoes down the hallway.

Gemini stared in shock. "What the fu-"

"WHERE ARE THEY?" Leo ran over to the others, breathing just as heavily as the other two.

"Where's who?" asked Pisces.

"Leo, if you listened, you'd hear them," said Capricorn.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" screamed two voices from the floor below.

Aquarius face palmed. "They're going to get kicked out by security for screaming like that!"

"WHY ARE YOU RUNNING? WHY ARE YOU RUNNING?!?" Leo sprinted out the door so fast she almost tripped.

Aquarius walked the door and locked it. "Well that was unexpected."

"So those are the girls you want us to become friends with?" asked Gemini.

"We're already friends with Saggi so who cares?" asked Pisces.

Gem sighed. "Did Aries have to take ALL of the cheesecake?"

"Well, it worked. The cheesecake summoned an actual Aries," laughed Capricorn.

Everyone else laughed with him.

"I don't think it will be hard to get Aries on our side," admitted Gemini. "The real challenge will be Scorpio, Virgo, Scorpio, Libra, and Scorpio. Did I mention Scorpio?"

"We'll get Scorpio when we get everyone else. She'll want to join us then," announced Gem. 

"Actually, that'll have the opposite effect," corrected Taurus. "She'll love the whole twelve zodiacs versus Scorpio concept. She'll mess with us just to prove she's more powerful than all twelve of us combined."

"She's not more powerful then twelve of us combined," scoffed Gemini.

Taurus shrugged. "You obviously don't know Scorpio very well."

"So...we're going for Scorpio after Aries and Leo?" asked Capricorn.

Gem shook her head. "Let's not plan our next, next victim until we have our next victim."

"So... are we just going to bribe Aries with cheesecake?" asked Cancer.

"She won't join us just for cheesecake. We'll probably have to save her and Sagittarius from Leo," suggested Taurus.

"Because then she'll feel like she owes us for saving her," explained Aquarius who was finally understanding. "So who wants to save them from Leo?"

"YOU DO!" Pisces pointed at Aquarius.

Gem nodded. "Okay since Aquarius volunteered-"

"I didn't volunteer!"

"we need someone els-"

"I DIDN'T volunteer!"

"Who wants to go with Aquarius?"

"YOU DO!" Pisces pointed at Gem.

Gem smiled. "Great! Thanks Cancer."

"Why me?" asked Cancer.

"Because I told you to."

"If you make me do it, I'll kick you all out of my apartment," smirked Aquarius.

"Then Pisces and Cancer will do it," said Gem.

Taurus grinned. "Perfect! You guys better go now."

Cancer crossed his arms. "You can't make us."

"Yes, we can." Taurus grabbed Cancer while Aquarius grabbed Pisces. Both boys were pushed out of Aquarius' apartment while Gem locked the door behind them.

"So... what are we doing now?" asked Capricorn.

Aquarius shrugged. "I have a bit of cheesecake squares in my... wait!" Then he went to lock his window before coming back and pulling out a plate of cheesecake squares.

Leo was driving home with the fire signs' shared car.

"HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO US!" 

"HELP! WE'RE BEING KIDNAPPED!"

Leo rolled her eyes and adjusted the rear-view mirror to keep an eye on Aries and Sagittarius, both of which were tied up back to back. "You really thought you could escape me."

Leo's phone vibrated. Being a safe driver, Leo pulled over to answer her phone.

???: Hey. Is this Leo?

Leo: yes. Who is this?

???: I am you

Leo: Cancer, is this you again?

???: no. You blocked me remember?

???: him*

Leo: Cancer you idiot!

???: Im not Cancer

Leo: I'm saving your contact name as Cancer

Cancer: so you won't block me like you blocked poor, sweet, cute, amazing, ugly Cancer who sucks lol

Cancer: I didn't mean to say the ugly and sucks part. It's like some kind of hideous demon who wishes he was as cool as me took control of my phone for a second there.

Leo: okay...

Cancer: do you want to know something?

Leo: what?

Cancer: you were so busy texting me, you didn't notice that Sagittarius used her nose to press the button that puts the window down, and Pisces helped them get out and untie them. All while you were texting me! Wow, you're very unobservant!

Leo: I heard Aries laughing so I figured that's what they were up to. You didn't fool me, I let them get away. Now run because I'm after you too

Cancer: GEM MADE ME DO IT!

Leo closed the door, then started driving back the way she came.

Virgo and Libra were curled up in balls in Taurus' closet. They were afraid to breathe, in case Scorpio could hear them.

They heard footsteps walk into Libra's room. Libra was glad she convinced Virgo to hide in Taurus' closet instead of her own.

"What naughty teenagers, how dare they hide from their elder," purred Scorpio as she walked out of Libra's room and into the bathroom.

"She's younger than both of us," whispered Virgo.

For a second Libra was afraid that Scorpio heard, but Scorpio continued looking around in the bathroom.

Virgo carefully reached up and pulled clothes off the hangers, then he started burying Libra under a pile of clothes. He covered the last bit of Libra's head with a sweater, when the closet door opened.

Scorpio looked at Virgo with a grin. "Found you." Virgo tried to dart past Scorpio, but Scorpio held him back. "Where's Libra?"

"She's in the bathroom. Come, I'll show you," Virgo tried to pull Scorpio towards the bathroom.

"I think she's in here somewhere," Scorpio pinned both of Virgo's arms behind his back and pulled him with her as she checked the rest of the room. "Come on, let's check the bathroom." Scorpio pulled Virgo with her as she went into the bathroom.

As soon as she heard Scorpio's footsteps in the bathroom, Libra quietly walked out of the closet, and slowly opened the window. Libra stepped on Taurus' dresser and pulled her self up with two feet dangling outside the window. She was about to jump, when an arm slung around her waist and forcefully pulled her back.

Libra screamed and looked up to see Scorpio. "Oh hi. I didn't see you there."

"Aww Virgo tried to save Libra. That's cute, but it completely failed." Then Scorpio pulled both of them out to the garage.

Inside the garage, Scorpio had everything set up for her pranking lessons.

"Who's excited for pranking lessons?" asked Scorpio.

"NOT ME!" screamed Libra.

"Can we go yet?" asked Virgo.

Scorpio smirked. "Both of you take a seat," she pointed to two chairs in the middle of the garage. Both chairs had a flat pillow on the part where you sit.

Virgo and Libra sat down on the chairs. Both of their eyes widened when they heard a loud "fart" noise.

Virgo pulled the whoopee cushion out from under the pillow. "Really?"

"Neither one of you suspected anything, even with a pillow on the chair?" asked Scorpio.

Libra shrugged. "I thought you put pillows there to make the chairs more comfortable."

Scorpio sighed. "Why would I do that? You're hopeless!"

"If we're hopeless, can we leave?" asked Virgo.

"No. The trick with a whoopee cushion is to place a pillow or something over it, to hide the whoopee cushion. This is not a hard prank, and you should not have fallen for it. Even Cheeto is judging you."

Cheeto meowed and licked her paw.

Libra crossed her arms. "You're so harsh on us!"

"I don't care. Next we're going to have a discussion about sneaking up on people..."

Virgo and Libra sighed, knowing this was going to be a long day.

Aries and Sagittarius walked out of the pet store. Aries held a temporary cage with the animals inside. Sagittarius carried a big box containing the actual animal cage, and bags of food, shavings, play equipment, etc. Then looked at each other and smirked as they jogged home.

***

Aries and Sagittarius were in the living room when Leo threw the door open so forcefully, she thought it was going to break.

"I've... finally... found... you..." Leo grabbed onto the wall for support as she panted.

Aries and Sagittarius were too busy watching their new pets to care about Leo.

Leo looked up and gasped when she saw the giant cage. "What the fuck is that?"

Aries turned around. "We bought it today. It's for our new pets."

"WHAT new pets?"

"These ones." Sagittarius turned around with two sugar gliders in her hands.

Leo put her hands on her hips. "You snuck out to buy rats?"

"They're not rats!" protested Aries. "When they grow up, they can fly!"

Leo sighed. "So you bought flying rats... and you didn't even get one for me!"

"Yes we did." Sagittarius pulled a third sugar glider out of the cage. "This is yours."

Leo squealed. "You guys bought one for me? He's so cute! What should I name him?"

Aries shrugged. "Mine is named Cheesecake and Sagittarius' is named Suga."

"Hmm... I'll name mine... Flying rat." Aries and Sagittarius gave Leo a look. "I'm kidding! I'll name him Teddy, because he looks cuddly like a teddy bear."

Suga fell asleep in Sagittarius' hand. She smiled and put him back in the cage along with Cheesecake.

Leo put Teddy back in his cage as well. "Where did you even get the idea to buy sugar gliders?"

Aries shrugged. "My husband has two, so he inspired me to buy them."

"No, Kim SeokJin is my husband!" argued Sagittarius.

"He lives in Fortis, so I have a better chance than you do!"

"But he's world wide handsome and I'm worldwide gorgeous, so we'd be the perfect couple!"

Leo rolled her eyes. "Whatever Korean celebrity you guys are arguing over this time, he wouldn't want to date either of you." Then she got up and started getting ready for work.

"She just doesn't understand," said Aries while searching pictures of Jin on her phone for her and Sagittarius to look at.

***

Taurus, Gem, Capricorn and Gemini walked out of the apartment building after the meeting at Aquarius' apartment ended.

"Guys, I have to talk to Taurus, can you run on ahead?" asked Gemini.

"Why?" asked Capricorn.

"It doesn't matter," said Gem while pulling Capricorn away.

Taurus bit her lip. "You're not mad at me, are you?"

Gemini shook his head. "No Taurus, you didn't do anything wrong."

"What is it then?"

Gemini sighed. "I don't know how to say this... uh... maybe we should just be friends."

Taurus sighed. "If that's what you really want, go ahead."

"You're not too upset, are you?"

"No. Honestly, I kind of expected this. It's because you love someone else, isn't it?"

"Yeah."

"I understand. I don't want to hold you back from loving who you love, and I'll eventually find someone who loves me more than anyone else. I'm a bit disappointed in myself, maybe I wasn't a good enough girlfriend-"

Gemini surprised Taurus by giving her a hug. "You've always been too hard on yourself. You were a perfect girlfriend, you did nothing wrong. The problem is... I think I like someone who could be a perfect uh... person-"

"You can say boyfriend. I know you like Cap."

"I... uh... what?"

Taurus laughed. "It's not hard to tell that you like him. Go get your man!"

Gemini laughed. "I'm glad you're so understanding. Seriously, you'll find a great guy someday."

"I hope so."

"So, I'll see you in school on Monday?"

"Yeah. Don't forget, it's Halloween. Since you broke up with me I'm making you give me a handful of candy."

Gemini laughed again. "I will if greedy Gem doesn't eat it all."

"Okay! Bye!" Then Taurus walked away.

Gemini walked away, feeling a weight being lifted off his shoulders.

"I'M TELLING GEM YOU CALLED HER GREEDY!" screamed Taurus. Then she ran away laughing.

Gemini sighed. He wasn't scared of his sister.
