#, as written by Zenia
The morning hit the grand windows of the School of Saint Kleiosā€™ academy. Students roll out of their bedrooms in their dorms some more reluctantly than others. To regular outsiders they look like regular high schoolers, to the well informed they know the truth.

They are clones.

Every student roaming these halls are clones of some historical figure, infamous and famous alike, the good and the bad and the in between.

The music halls are filled with songs their originals wrote. Books are being written that people once thought the authors wouldnā€™t be able to write again. New theories are coming out by scientists. Some clones do not yet know their place. Others know it to well.
The clones are well provided for with exquisite food to suit their taste from vegan, to vegetarian, and everything else. There is even a small salon where they can go to get a shave and a haircut or new hair style.
But there rumors going around about a few non clones, that for the first time since the academy were created, would be allowed in. Fear and excitement mix with the ramble, some happy, some mad, and others unsure.

Though all know one thing.

This year will most certainly be different than the others.

She was standing on the crows nest, the salt air blowing through her red hair. Anne looked at the galleon below her, at the people scurrying on the deck, they looked so small, like ants. Her green eyes fell on the blue waves of the sea, tipped with white foam and she let out a hearty laugh, turning her head sky ward. She was home! A seagull flew next to her, opened its beak and...BZZZZZZZZZTTT!!

Anne Bonny shoot out of bed with a jolt, cursing the foul noise rather loudly. She was furious! She had been HOME! On the sea at last, one with the sea even! She let out a frustrated sob, tears welling in her eyes for a moment before she chucked the alarm clock out the window. Anne quickly showered, brushed her teeth and got dressed before walking out of her room and slamming her door shut. She only turned around to lock it, before she stormed down the hallaway. She heard some non clones would be coming to the school, it didn't really bother her. She just hoped they wouldn't bother her to much. She didn't mind if they judged her on her originals past, she was rather proud of her past, she had been a feared pirate, one of the few female pirates.

Anne's room was once like everyone else's. And by that...well it didn't used have slash marks from a sword our feather from a cut up pillow everywhere. The paintings on the wall had been sliced, and the canopy over her bed had been cut to ribbons. When Anne got angry and she was alone, the woman would lash out with whatever was on hand, bottles or swords or knives.

But how was she going to live up to her originals name with no captain to guide her, no friend to be with her, no ship to be on. She wasn't even allowed outside the school! She slammed her fist against the wall in anger, she had woken up in a bad mood after that teasing dream. Why did she have to have that dream again! It always promised her things that would never happen. She didn't notice the other students around her, she just kept walking, shoving people aside when need be. Most of them stepped out of her way, the could tell Anne was in a bad mood, and when she was in a bad mood she had a tendency to get into fights with others. Recently she had punched out the two front teeth of another classmate who had insulted her, much like her original had at one point. The poor classmate had to go to the dentist to get a bridge for her missing teeth. But that was awhile back, and had sent a bit of a message to not mess with Anne...but it also meant that Anne didn't have many friends. She had no Calico for her Bonny, no Mary for her Anne...

Anne was thinking all of these things, she didn't notice the person in front of her, one of the students hadn't got the message to move out of the way it seemed. And she didn't see them until she slammed into them.

Gaius watched the girl spin around and look at him. He analysed her every move. She was a new person, and that meant new competition. She was also a girl, and that set him on edge. He made a new folder in his brain called 'Darcy Hollis' and logged everything she did or said in it, making a mental note that anything she said could and would be used against her. But then he thought for a moment. He had never heard of anyone named Darcy Hollis in history. This must be a non-clone! he thought. He stared at her. He listened as Sweeney simply introduced himself as 'Todd.' He must have caught on, too. Gaius noted her playful smiles. This new girl was just a bundle of sunshine, wasn't she? Gaius smiled an exaggerated mockery of her smile and kept talking, even though she wasn't paying any attention to him. He started out in a chipper tone. It was hard to tell if he was being sarcastic or not. He wasn't even sure he knew. "Well, you can call me Gaius, Hollis Darcy Hollis. Or, you can call me Julius... or Gus... or Cal... or..." his voice trailed off as he noticed the other kid lurking on the edge of the conversation. He was tall and wore glasses. Interesting... I don't recognize him, either. Maybe we have two non-clones. This would be fun.

He heard footsteps behind him. Turning, he saw Jack and Anne about to collide on the sidewalk. Gaius smiled. He hated both of them, since Anne made a point of making him uncomfortable all the time and Jack made a point of knowing everything there was to know about Caligula to torment him with. He let them crash and fall. They had it coming.

Wow. This must be a really amazing school, if it has its own barber shop. Sam thought. He watched as the kids interacted and then one called another one Gaius. What kind of name is that? Sam narrowed his eyes. A really snobby one, probably. The first kid was going on about everyone's hair, and then he turned to the girl whose space was being invaded and himself. Sam jumped. They're talking to me... He thought to the voice. What do I do? No answer.

He watched as the girl finally noticed Gaius the Creeper Toothpick, and then responded to the barber kid. Sam listened to Gaius as he went on and on about what they could call him. But no one was really paying attention to him. They were all looking at Sam. "Oh, it's nice to meet you, Todd, Darcy." He said as jovially as he could. It was then that Sam realized that Todd had been playing some music from Sweeney Todd. Oh, that's funny. Sam joked to himself. Todd must be a nickname 'cause he's the barber. How cute. I wonder if he has anger management issues... He chuckled slightly. "I just got it. Nice." he laughed a little more, mostly from nervousness. He noticed that the kid named Gaius was staring at him strangely, as if he could see right through him. That might have had something to do with his weird bulging eyes, though. It set Sam on edge. He looked back to the new girl and Sweeney. "I'm Samuel, but some people just call me Sam." he swallowed. He heard footsteps behind him. Grateful for the distraction, he turned around. An average looking kid with long brown hair was walking down the sidewalk, obviously in some sort of intellectual reverie. A girl with flaming red hair - also deep in thought - was about to collide with him. "Um, hey!" he shouted, "Watch out -" but it was too late. They crashed. Sam winced. That looked like it hurt. Golly, was everyone incompetent around here?

Um, hey!


Jack was about to look up at the sound of the boy's voice when the boy had called out to him, momentily distracted from his thoughts on his thesis, when he collided with a tangle of red hair. He stumbled back, disoriented, pain radiating through his frame. He sat there for a moment, recovering himself, and then turned to the girl he'd run into, surveying her.

Fiery red hair, tough aura, and not surrounded by other girls. From what he could recall of stories that drifted around school, she matched the discription of the cloned version of Anne Bonny perfectly. He tried to recall what he knew about her, trying to ignore everything he knew about her original--she's her own self, just as I am me. We're not all exactly like our originals, after all. He could vaguely remember being disturbed in class a while ago by some of his classmate's idle gossip about her punching out some kid's teeth, but he hadn't really taken the rumor seriously, dismissing it as useless prattle from people who didn't have anything better to do with their lives then to talk about others behind their backs. Now that he saw her though, he could at least believe all the rumors about her being a tough loner.

However, it didn't matter if she was a loner or a bully or just someone with rage issues. She was still as much of a person as the rest of them and still had feelings and things that troubled her, and he'd continue to treat her as a descent person until she gave him a reason to do so otherwise. Just to be safe, I probably shouldn't bring up her original. If she has the same feelings as I do about my original, and the rumors are true, then I could get punched in the face. I can't afford to waste a day at the dentist over a couple of teeth. I'd never finish my thesis on time if that happened.

I'm so sorry! Are you okay?
he said, hastening to her side.
You know, you shouldn't daydream in the middle of hall like that, or accidents like this will happen all the time! I suppose it was partially my fault for not paying attention too though. But I was just having a wonderful debate in my head about hatred, and if it was as destructive for the soul of a clone as it was for the soul of a human being-- you know, as part of my thesis. But, even if it is a great topic to toss about, it's still no excuse for running into you. Again, I'm terribly sorry....

"No thanks, Todd I was just in here a couple of weeks ago Im good in the haircut department. Just passing by on my way to..." Ami noticed the girl come up behind her and she smiled.

The girl was obviously new.... but there were no new clones scheduled to come into the high school till next year. There was a rumor being whispered about of non-clones being aloud to come into the school. Now Ami had never been the type to believe in rumors. But when the truth is blatantly standing next to you and asking for directions you cant really shrug it off any more.

"Well I'll be, nice to meet you Darcy Hollis the new kid, I'm Amelia but you can call me Ami", it was then that Gaius walked up along with another unfamiliar face.

"Man this turned into a party at Todd's really quick" Ami said with a huge grin not really worried about the two new people.

She thought it was nice to have some fresh faces, still not as nice as it would be if they would let them even go into town every once in a while. And as much as she wanted this to actually turn out to be a party she knew it would time to go to class soon. As she turned to get away from the crowd in front of the door she came out just in time to see a collision between the Jack and Anne Bonny. The new guy who was now standing next to Ami called out to the pair but it was too late.

"Oh ouch" she groaned, "Jeepers are you two alright?" she called out.

She didn't want to get too close to Anne knowing the red heads temper, a trait from her original as far as Ami new and the flaw kind of grated on Ami's nerves. Never the less she treated everyone in the school as though they might be a member of her family. Because in reality the clones in this school were the closest thing she'll ever get to it. She turned to the new guy that had introduced himself as Sam just moments before. She tugged his sleeve a bit to get his attention.

"That was a heck of a hit wasn't it, but it doesn't surprise me around here. People get all caught up in thinking and in they're own little world" she smiled gently at Sam. "Just, always keep your guard up and you'll do fine here" she then walked over to Anne and Jack to make sure they were alright.

#, as written by Zenia
Sweeney smiled at the new girl as he heard Ami introduce herself to her, well then it was a new student! A non-clone by the name, soā€¦the rumors were true. ā€œPleasure to meet you Darcyā€¦or do you prefer to be called Hollis?ā€ he asked as he leaned on his broom a bit. ā€œA map or a guide? Well I can provide the guide, I am afraid I do not have a map on meā€¦Amelia do you?ā€ he asked. He blinked as he heard the other male say he ā€˜got itā€™ he tilted his head to the right a look of confusionā€¦and worry was on his pale face, ā€œG-got it?ā€ he whispered di he guess he was a clone of Sweeney?! Is that what he got.

He was distracted soon as he heard a ruckus.

He turned around to see Anne Bonny collide into Lewis causing him to wince. ā€œAhā€¦Anneā€¦ā€ he whispered with a shake of his head, ā€œThat girl really needs to not run in the halls soā€¦ā€ he whispered as he looked at Gaius, ā€œGaius are you all right? You seem a bit paleā€¦then again that could just be my old eyes playing tricks on me.ā€ He asked as he heard the other male introduce himself ā€œIt is a pleasure to meet you Samuel, I will help you find where you need to go as well as Miss Darcy,ā€ he said with what he assumed was a kind smileā€¦but it could come off as a bitā€¦creepy or malicious. ā€œI think I will be forgiven for helping out new students if I am a tad late.ā€ He explained as he gave them a smile, ā€œBut again please let me change first.ā€ He said as he headed back into his salon, going to the back as he changed into his uniform. Leaving two off his razors behind, the other in his school bagā€¦he just didnā€™t want it to be stolenā€¦and it gave him an odd comfort, not that he would ever dream of using it of course!

He soon came out all ready to go as he looked at the people, ā€œWell than shall we? And as Amelia said, keep your guard up and you shall do fine you two.ā€ he commented to them with a light chuckle. ā€œhopefully I will bump into Marge on the wayā€¦ā€ he thought to himself.

The red headed pirate clone fell down to the ground with a loud thud, a strew of curses flowing from her lips that would even a sailor would blush at....or take notes. It was clear from her emerald eyes that she was in a bad mood. Her dreams, while once pleasant, had become nightmares. After all...what was a pirate without a ship or a captain? It wasn't exactly like the school was going to let her pillage and burn down villages, raid cargo ships and steal the goods. So why the hell did they even create her?

She felt like she was ship wrecked. Her favorite band, Alestorm, summoned up her feelings up rather well.
Hey! you're banjaxed!Ā 
Hey! you're screwed!Ā 
And death is coming for you!Ā 
Trapped on an island lost at sea!Ā 
Shipwrecked your destiny!Ā 


Anne really did feel like her destiny was shipwrecked, and she hadn't even set sail.
Her reputation at the school was well earned, and while some of the rumors were unfounded...not all of them were. When some female student had started picking her, calling her all sorts of names for her sexual preference and that she didn't like her company. Well Anne did what happened a lot. She got angry, and like her orginal had done to a woman long ago, she had punched the woman's two front teeth out. But unlike some of the clones here she was proud of who her clone was, but she just didn't understand why she was created.
Anne's mind was drawn to the voice of one of her class mates. Jack was it? She hadn't spent much time with him. Then again she didn't spend much time with anyone. People tended to avoid her. Again for a good reason.

ā€œI am fine.ā€ Her voice was a bit annoyed as she pushed herself off the ground, she wasn't happy but it was just an accident, she couldn't bring herself to be fully angry at him for that. Though it didn't help improve her mood. ā€œAnd don't try to blame my day dreamin on this, cause it is as much of your fault as it is mine. Accidents happen and lets leave it at that. I am in a bad enough mood as it is. Not that any of the lot here give a rats ass.ā€ The red head hissed out as she shook her head.

Anne didn't have friends here...and while it had to do with her attitude...she was actually rather lonely.
The woman took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

ā€œLook. I am sorry. I didn't mean to bump into you.ā€

At the sound of the female classmate's voice the clone pirate let out a sigh and turned around. ā€œI am fine.ā€ Just fucking fine. She had caused a scene it seemed...what a wonderful way to start off this horrible day. She would kill for some Ale or rum...

The sharp response Anne gave him as she pushed herself off the ground stopped Jack short. He studied her critically, reading her posture, her expression, listening to her tone of voice as she shook her head. He didn't know exactly what was the matter with her--after all, he hardly knew her. But he could tell there was obviously something that was troubling her. And you called it daydreaming, you idiot....

Finally, Anne inhaled deeply, calming herself down, and said,
Look. I am sorry. I didn't mean to bump into you.


Jack ran a hand through his hair, laughing it off again.
All right. Let's just forget it.


A female voice called out to them, and Anne sighed again, before responding to her with a simple
I'm fine.

No, you're not 'fine,' are you? He paused, uncertain if he should give her the advice that had suddenly sprang to the tip of his tongue. What's the worst it could do? A little advice couldn't hurt anyone, right?

You know...if something is bothering you, maybe you should talk to someone about it,
he added finally as she turned away from him.
I hear it can help, or so I've read. I wouldn't really say I've done it first hand unless you count raving at St. Augustine's Confessions when they made me rethink my whole life. But you're welcome to yell into any of my books if you think it'll help.


He laughed awkwardly again, hoping she wouldn't think he was making fun of her issues. No, she'll probably either think I'm crazy or the world's biggest nerd. He turned away from Anne, spotting Ami heading over to them to make sure they were okay.
Oh, hey, Amelia
he grinned sheepishly at her.
Yeah, we're okay. Nothing like a little collision to wake you up in the morning, huh? Maybe I should start making this a habit, if I can prove that it actually makes you think better.

Gaius smirked as he watched everyone bustle about Anne and Jack. They deserved it. "Smooth moves!" He piped up. "Oh, and by the way, Jack, hatred's not destructive. It builds progress!" He said, calling the boy by his nickname just to irritate him. He knew he didn't like it, and he took every opportunity to use it. Gaius frowned when Sweeney asked him if he was okay. He hated when his friend did that. It made him look weak. "I'm fine." he snapped. But then his voice softened. "Thanks."

Samuel answered Todd. "I'm just off to Latin. I... don't suppose you could help me find it? I know you're busy..."

Gaius perked up. "Hey, I have Latin first, too! That means we'll be in the same class..." He thought about what this could mean. Well, it certainly meant that he could have more time to observe this weird kid, this kid who seemed hesitant to even speak. "And yes, my parents loved ancient Rome!" he said, turning to Hollis. "They loved it so much that they named me all those names. Every single one."

Samuel made a face at Gaius's sarcastic remarks. There was no need to be rude. Hollis had just asked a question. He wasn't sure he wanted to be in the same class as this kid.

Gaius shrugged. "Either that, or I'm Emperor Caligula come back from the dead. Or maybe I tiiiime-traveled." Gaius wiggled his fingers in front of the girl's face mock-mysteriously. He loved messing with people. Yeah, it made him look like a jerk, but he didn't care. At least, he pretended not to...

'Oh? You're up, Caligula? I thought you'd be in bed, or better yet, visiting the school doctor, you know, especially after last night's escapades in the library. I'm sure there's some medication he can give you that can stall insanity.

Gaius paled, brought up short by the quick response. I should have known not to engage C.S. Lewis in a battle of insults, he berated himself. He opened his mouth to respond, but found that no words came out. He looked nervously back at Hollis and Sam, praying that they hadn't figured it out already. "Um..." was all he got out at that moment. His face turned an angry shade of red. "I..." He swallowed. Why did this always happen to him? "How did you know about the library?" he squeaked.

He couldn't think of anything but that this was unfair. It wasn't fair that Jack had such an amazing original, known throughout time for being a sane, witty genius. And Gaius had Caligula. The wacko, horse-loving, sexually crazed, seashell-loving emperor of Rome. And now he was paying for it. He was also paying for his own idiocy, but he would never acknowledge that. He just thought the whole situation was unfair, not his fault, no question. He glanced again at Hollis and Sam. Oh, God, please don't let them figure it out. Why does this always happen?

"Somewhat, but don't fret, deary," Margery responds with a strange sort of bluntness, using the term of endearment that she tends to adopt when impatient but trying to be polite. Of course, it hardly balances out the impatience, and has occasionally come across to others as a bit annoying- condescending, if you will. Still, habits die hard, and no one has ever expressed annoyance to the young woman's face. She's no Anne Bonny, but does have something of a reputation when provoked. Add this to her original's claim to infamy, and people tend to stay away from her when Margery is anywhere near a kitchen, or even just a knife. They can think as they wish, though, for as long as they don't say anything behind her back whilst she can hear, Margery refuses to give the satisfaction of reacting. Well, she tries to refuse, anyway. It is often a losing battle of sorts, as fighting one's own nature often is. The young woman with the curly hair nods with some measure of sympathy at Chopin's voiced distaste for coughs, knowing how his original passed.

"Well, a bit of tea or something else warm is usually good for that, right?" she says with a reasonably light demeanor, managing to come off as not malicious as Chopin begins to speak again. "Right, better get going as we-" she is cut off by his mention of Sweeney and, rather amusingly, the comment -or rather the laugh that follows- makes her face turn a scarlet shade. Most people know, or can guess, how she feels for Mr. T -with the exception of the idiot himself- but the young woman does tend to pretend as though she doesn't know this- or try to not know this. "Oi!" she shouts after him, but the musician has already disappeared into the doctor's building, leaving her standing there with a furious type of blush. It soon fades, however, and her skin returns to its ghostly pale hue; the hue that makes her look as though she doesn't go outside. She does, of course, but that only ever results in fairly nasty burns.

Within a few seconds, Margery is back on her way towards Mr. T's barber shop, and notices a couple of people around it as she nears the tidy establishment. I wish they'd let me have a restaurant or canteen or somethin', she thinks wistfully to herself, as is her habit when she visits the barber shop. The group is a fair mix of irritating, tolerable, decent, and unknown. She had heard rumors of new kids, non-clones, and immediately puts two and two together to assume that these two students fit that rather unorthodox bill. Of course, her attention is immediately snagged away from them by Sweeney, who stands before them in his uniform- probably showing them around or something. Margery lifts a hand slightly to get his attention, and then begins to walk over to the motley crew of people. Of course, this school is the very definition of motley. You don't become famous enough to have a clone of yourself made by being exactly like the rest of the world, after all.

#, as written by Zenia
Sweeney Todd heard and Lewis bickering, soon joined by Gaius as he sighed, ā€œWouldā€¦everyone please not bicker in front of my shop? It makes meā€¦anxious.ā€ He muttered as he sighed, ā€œAnd for those of you who are not bickering I thank you kindly.ā€ He commented as he took a small breath. ā€œNow then I believe I was asked some question of why I am called Todd yes? Well the Sweeney Todd comment is clever and I do love the music as you can seeā€¦er hearā€¦ā€ he muttered, ā€œMy last name is actually Toddā€¦so it is a coincidence my first name isā€¦.ā€

ā€œOh bloody hell should have thought of a fake first nameā€¦.Wait maybeā€¦.ā€ he quickly thought of one. ā€œBenjaminā€¦Benjamin Todd.ā€ He said with a smile. Now then Samuel and Hollis we should go on to the office to get you set upā€¦and calculus is with Einstien I think. No relation to the real Einstien.ā€ He explained quickly as he started to move to lead them when he saw a welcomed face. A smile touched his lips as he walked on over to Margery.

ā€œMarge! There you are, I was going to head on to find you butā€¦ā€ he glanced at the group. ā€œā€¦well they stopped me.ā€ He muttered, ā€œNot that I do not mind the peopleā€¦butā€¦um I am not used to this many at onceā€¦ā€ he explained as he rubbed the back of his head. ā€œHow have you been? Cooked up anything new?ā€ he asked with a tilt of his head. He had a surprise for herā€¦but that could wait. ā€œAhā€¦um do you want to accompany me onā€¦taking the two new people to the Headmaster? And hope we donā€™t run into Richard?ā€ he asked her nodding at the non-clones.

Ah yes Richardā€¦Richard Blunt to be exact, the clone of one of the men that helped capture his and Margesā€™ Orginal, it was a well-known fact that Blunt did not like the twoā€¦or Anne for that matter, he was all about upholding school rules, and he thought the moreā€¦ ā€˜infamousā€™ clones were always up to no good, in fact he made it a point to try to catch them doing something wrong or provoking them.

Sam watched what followed with wonder. These people were so weird. He cocked his head to the side when Jack called Gaius "Caligula." That was weird. Sam knew all about Caligula, because he loved history. And the name seemed to fit. I mean, he had the brown hair, brown bulging eyes, lanky arms and legs, creepy personality, and... weird Roman names. In fact, he had said that Hollis could call him Julius or Gus or Cal. Gaius Julius Augustus Caligula. The only names that were missing were Caesar and Germanicus. Sam started to get a little freaked out by the resemblance. But what was even stranger was the kid's response to Jack. He didn't laugh, as one might at a fun nick-name, but he paled. He stammered, and then asked Jack a question. He kept on looking back at Sam and Hollis. What was going on? Then Sam looked back at Todd. That was weird, too. Who were these people, history nuts? Then Todd seemed to blank on what his first name was. He quickly recovered though and called himself Benjamin. Then he greeted a messy looking girl who had walked up behind them. And her name was... Marge, apparently. Marge? Like Margery? This was getting a little too weird.

He was distracted out of his thoughts by Hollis, who said that she also had Latin. But apparently they weren't in the same class. "Yes." Samuel said. "I suspect that would be because I am in a higher level of Latin than you." Then it occurred to him that Gaius, who's nickname was apparently "Caligula," took that same level of Latin. This is too creepy. Something was telling him that something was very wrong here. Then Benjamin mentioned that the math teacher's name was "Einstein." Samuel blinked. That was the last straw. His breath seemed to run short as he looked at all the faces. Amelia, Caligula, Todd, Margery, Jack, Einstein. And Todd was a barber, no less. And "Jack" was writing books and theses about souls. And "Caligula" was acting like some weirdo. And Margery seemed to have some sort of connection with Todd. And Einstein was the math teacher. Amelia wasn't really creeping him out, but her name was. He took a step back, grabbing Hollis's arm. "Hollis..." said, his voice shaky. "I think your comment about the TARDIS was not misplaced." He swallowed. "Now, I am a little bit crazy, I'll grant you that, but I think this school has... time-travel."

Gaius watched as Sam began to look horrified by something. Oh, God, no...

'Hollis...' Sam said, his voice shaky. 'I think your comment about the TARDIS was not misplaced." He swallowed. "Now, I am a little bit crazy, I'll grant you that, but I think this school has... time-travel.'

Gaius burst out laughing, his high-pitched, strident laugh getting on his own nerves. This caused a chill to run down Sam's spine. "Time-travel??" He laughed again, getting more and more nervous. This couldn't be happening. Whose idea was it to bring non-clones to this school?? Whoever it was, Gaius wanted to murder him slowly. "That is so ridiculous!" Gaius tried to calm down, but found himself becoming hysterical quite quickly. His breathing became accelerated. "I mean, I just can't believe you would think that! Claudius wouldn't even think that, and he's an idiot!" He gasped, choking on his own words. Now you've done it!

Sam looked worried. "Claudius?" he asked, "Is an idiot?"

Gaius's eyes widened. Why did this twerp have to know so much about history??? "Well, that's just what we call him, he's not actually..." He looked at Sweeney, the words 'save me!' written all over his face.

Jack hadn't really noticed the boy next to Caligula--too focused on Caligula himself--until the boy spoke up.
Jack stared at him, suddenly feeling his stomach drop away. He didn't recognize this boy. That's impossible! I know pretty much everybody worth knowing in history. There's no way I wouldn't know a clone by their looks or at least from rumors of them going by the library. But I don't know this kid. No. This is not happening. Surely I know him, don't I? I just don't remember his name, that's all. Yeah, that has to be it.

Now, the sad thing about spending most of his time in the library and knowing books better than people meant that Jack hardly ever heard about current events until about six months after the fact, or until they were put into hard backs. Sure, he should have heard the rumor about clones coming to school, but, recently, his thesis had been the only thing he had been able to focus on. He hadn't heard or paid attention to anything else. So the idea of this boy being a non-clone didn't even occur to him. No, he felt more embarrassed--no, humiliated was the right word--about not being able to think of who this boy might be.

It was the boy's last comment though that brought him up short, making Jack momentarily forget that he didn't know who the boy was.
...Now, I am a little bit crazy, I'll grant you that, but I think this school has... time-travel.


Jack laughed at the idea. Time travel? That was absurd. Beside him, Gaius spluttered something about Claudius being crazy and not even considering that idea.

Time Travel?
Jack repeated, shaking his head with a grin.
Didn't they ever tell you that you were cloned?
Then he suddenly remembered that he didn't know who the boy's original was, and added casually, hoping the boy wouldn't be offended by his ignorance.
By the way, who was your original again?

Sam whipped around when he heard Marge's sarcastic comment. 'You've figured us out, love. Our principal is actually Doc Brown, see,' Sam's brows furrowed. This seemed no time for joking. Something seriously wrong was going on, and he was going to get to the bottom of it.

'But in all seriousnessā€¦we are just regular school kidsā€¦who just happen to go here.' Todd explained, 'Now then if you two will please follow us-'

'Time Travel?' Jack repeated, shaking his head with a grin. 'Didn't they ever tell you that you were cloned? By the way, who was your original again?'

Sam's eyes widened. "C-cloned?" he asked, his voice faint. "Original? What?"

Gaius watched as this all transpired, his heart's pace accelerating faster and faster. And then Jack just had to open his big mouth. "JAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!" he screeched. Sam whipped his head around at the screech. The kid who was apparently... the clone of Caligula was very upset. "I mean, um..." Gaius laughed nervously, trying to recover. "Good joke, Jack..." he giggled uncontrollably - it was something he did when he was nervous. "Very funny..."

Sam looked around him at all the faces. Caligula seemed to be going insane on the spot, and Sweeney seemed nervous. Maybe it's true. "No... this has to be a dream." He closed his eyes tight, and then opened them again. But it was all still there. "Stay away!" he hissed. The idea of clones was just revolting for some reason. Dead people brought back to life with science? That was just too creepy. He let go of Hollis's arm, backing up. "Especially you!" He said, pointing to Sweeney, Margery, and Gaius. "You're all insane! Get away from me!"

'You're all insane! Get away from me!'

Gaius was terrified. So this kid knew. He knew about their originals, and he didn't like it. It was freaking Gaius out. He didn't know if he could take it... He felt a migraine coming on. Pre-ictal migraines, the doctors called them. And he knew from long experience that they came right before a seizure. The light suddenly became too bright for his eyes, and he squinted. The sound of Sam's shouting was pounding in his ears. "Be quiet, please..." He muttered. He covered his ears with both hands. But then, not wanting anyone to see his weakness, he forced himself through strength of will to open his eyes and force his hands down to his sides. The pain was excruciating. "I... have to go..." Gaius mumbled faintly, but to him it sounded louder than a trumpet blare. "I'll be... late to class." It didn't make sense in context, but he was quickly becoming delirious. He felt his legs grow weak, and a jittery feeling crept into his bones. NO! This can't happen, not now! None of his friends knew that he had started having seizures - at least that's what he thought - and he had hidden it successfully from the doctors at school. He just couldn't let this happen to him now. He turned, took a step - and fell. His knees just gave out from under him, and that terrible feeling of losing all control grabbed hold of his brain. His hands curled up uncontrollably, and then his whole body convulsed, shaking and contorting as if some unseen hand was ringing him out like a wet doll. He heard screaming, so much screaming. The thought occurred to him that it was his own screaming. His eyes were wide open, but his sight was gone. He struggled to regain consciousness, but it was like he was underwater, swimming up, up, up... and never reaching the top. He was drowning! He couldn't breathe! Would it never end?

To all the outside observers, it appeared that Gaius was convulsing, sometimes excruciatingly slowly, sometimes disturbingly quickly. Every now and then a cry escaped his lips. He slammed his head into the ground when he fell, and didn't seem to have any control over his movements. There was nothing he could do.

Sam kept backing up, but stopped when Sweeney stepped forward. The kid started berating Sam for insulting Margery. Sam opened his mouth to respond, but the words died on his lips when Caligula started mumbling, started walking away, and then fell to the ground in a violent fit. That caused him to stop and stare. He had heard the emperor Caligula was epileptic, and this looked like a full-out seizure. "Oh, my gosh..." Sam's eyes widened. "Did I cause that?" He watched as everyone leapt to help the kid on the ground, but Sam didn't do anything. What could he do? He didn't know anything substantial about siezures. How could he do anything but hurt? And... he didn't really want to touch any of them.

Gaius twisted around on the ground, praying that someone would think to put something under his head so he didn't get a concussion. Someone tried to pin him to the ground, and he nigh panicked. NO! his instincts screamed. His arms felt like they were going to break with every jolt. His seizure became more violent as she held him down. He felt like his legs were melting. Let me go! But then whoever it was who had pinned him down jumped away and someone put something padded under his head. He heard two high voices shouting and Sweeney barking orders, but they sounded like they were from far, far away. He only made out one word: '... doctor!' "No, stop!" he tried to scream, but no sound came from his mouth. They couldn't call a doctor! Then it would all be over! His dream, destroyed! There was a moment of tense waiting, until he heard Jack's voice going on about dying and graves. Of course the bastard probably thought - hoped, even - that Gaius was dying. And Gaius guessed that Jack just couldn't wait to tell the doctors about Gaius's seizures, which Gaius had tried to hard to keep hidden. He heard hard footsteps, probably Jack's, run past his head and off some direction. He heard someone mumbling, and the sound echoed around in his head, making his headache, which was still present and growing worse, stronger. He felt a hand touch his head and heard Ami say his name. And then he heard that dreaded word again: '...doctor... soon.' Gaius resigned himself to ruin. This couldn't be happening, but it was. He still couldn't breathe, and his face was slowly turning a dark shade of red. His eyes rolled back in his head, and his face twitched over and over in twisted mockeries of a smile. His back arched and he stayed like that for maybe seven, long, terrifying seconds, and then he collapsed, the seizure over. He lay deathly still, not breathing, not moving, his unseeing eyes staring up at Ami. Then he gasped, gulping in air, finally able to breathe. He looked around frantically, but still could not see. He couldn't tell who was around him, only that Ami's hand was probably the one on his forehead, and Jack had probably run off to fetch the doctors. He pushed her hand away, breathing heavily and sitting up. So he could move, that was good. His legs felt like jelly, and he wasn't sure he could stand. At least his headache was gone. Why can't I see? he thought worriedly. He had never lost his sight before. But he didn't want his friends to know - though it was inevitable that they would figure it out eventually. But maybe he could keep it a secret until his sight came back. So he closed his eyes and hung his head. He was tired anyway. "Tell me -" he panted, stopping mid-sentence in pain. He grimaced, tasting blood. He must have bitten his tongue pretty hard, because it was very difficult to talk without stinging pain. "Tell me... you didn't call the doctor..."

'Gaius don't be foolish, you need a doctor.' Ami said beside him. She sounded like she was crying. That's odd. Why is she upset? he wondered. 'Gaius, you can't go on avoiding this any longer. If you just brush this off again you're either gonna end up with some serious damage or... worse.' Gaius, amazed at the concern she was showing for him, opened his eyes and looked in her general direction. "Why are you crying?" he asked, laughing breathlessly and staring blankly over Ami's left shoulder, "I'm the one who'th jutht had an epileptic fit!" He stopped talking from pain, and spat out some blood. Then he turned to everyone else - or, hopefully at everyone else. "Guyth, you've got to get me out of here before the doctor arrivth." He tried frantically to stand up, but ended up scrabbling around on the ground uselessly. He huffed in frustration. "Guyth!" he yelled. "You have to help me!!" But then he heard some people walk up next to him, and he stopped struggling.

'What have I missed?' He heard Abe's voice.

Great. More people. Gaius thought. He liked attention, but not this kind of attention. The kind where people were taking care of him. "'What have I mithed!'" Gaius muttered. "What a ridiculouth quethtion." He heard someone kneel down in front of him. It was probably the doctor. Gaius panicked. He was about to tell the doctor it had all been a joke, or some pathetic lie like that, when Jack spoke up. 'Abe, shouldn't you still be in the hospital? Ah...no matter. Now that you're here and we have a few minutes to wait for the verdict on Caligula, how did you hurt your arm?'

"Jack..." Gaius said warningly. It was like he was trying to annoy Gaius.

The doctor spoke up, and Gaius recognized him by his voice as Dr. Pasteur. "Caligula, you need to lie down."

Gaius clenched his fists. "Thtop calling me that! How would you feel if everyone called you 'footie-pajamath,' and then hithtory only remembered you by that name?" he huffed at the doctor. He felt a strong hand on his shoulder, gently forcing him to lie down. At first he resisted, but then he just gave up. He was so exhausted.

Dr. Pasteur stopped, though. 'Gaius?' he said, 'Can you see me?'

"Yeth." Gaius lied.

There was a moment of silence from the doctor, then he said, 'Okay, touch my finger and then touch your nose twice.' Damn. But Gaius was not to be defeated. He tried, unsuccessfully, to guess where the doctor's finger was, and poked Dr. Pasteur in the eye. Dr. Pasteur softly yelped in pain, and then began putting Gaius in seizure recovery position: on his side, with his left arm to the side, his right hand on his cheek, His right knee bent, and his head tilted upwards. He felt like an idiot. 'Gaius, you shouldn't lie to me. It only makes things worse.' Gaius stuck his tongue out at the young doctor in a juvenile manner. It hurt to do so, and he grimaced. His tongue was bitten almost half-way through. Gaius heard Pasteur gasp through his teeth. 'That'll need stitches.' Gaius groaned. Then Pasteur stood up. 'Alright, kids, I need you guys to go to class, okay? Gaius will be alright, I promise. If you need a note, go to the office.' Gaius closed his eyes and sighed. This would be a long day.
