Chapter 1: Keep The New Friends Sliver and The Others Gold

It was the middle of August of the year 1941. Two kids from Hamburg, Germany were part of a society called "The Swing Kids". These "Swing Kids" listened to banned swing music from the US. While the Nazi are searching through German homes to find new Hitler Youths, the "Swing Kids" are having the time of their lives dancing and just being kids rather then being pressured by the war going on.

Now, more about the two kids. The oldest is named Peter Mauchin. Peter has brown shaggy hair and big brown eyes, and he is quite the ladies man. He is a 16 year old boy who is an excellent swing dancer and loves to hang out with his good friends. Since his father died 6 years ago when he was just a young boy, he has been the man of the house and is in charge of taking care of his mother, grandmother, and his little sister.

Ava Mauchin is the youngest of the Mauchin family. She has long black hair and big brown eyes that resemble her brother's. She is spunky and energetic child and she absolutely adores her brother. She is just 9 years old but she is as good of a swing dancer as her big brother. She was only 3, a young baby, when her father died. Peter has taken a big role in being a brother and a father to her. She mostly just swing dances with Peter, Peter's best friend; Thomas, or Evy; Peter's soon to be girlfriend.

It was just turning dusk when Peter and Ava stepped into the Swing Club. The loud swing music rushed through their ears. The music was like their comfort noise. It was much better then listening to German men walking through the neighborhood and asking for young boys to join the HJ's. (A/N: HJ's is another way of saying Hitler Youths)

"Peter, let's dance to this song!" Ava said, tugging Peter's shirt and dragging him to the dance floor.

"Hold on there. I'm going to find Thomas first; I need to ask him something. Go look for Evy for me, will ya?" Peter said going eye level with his little sister and giving her a warmhearted smile.

"Alright" Ava sighed putting on a pouty face. Peter tickled her to the floor and her fake act to be sad was ruined. She nodded and smiled to her brother, and went searching for Evy.

Peter walked towards the bar area and saw his faithful friends and two new faces. Once Peter reached Thomas he gave him a pat on the back and greeted his other friend.

"Hey Tom, Arvid. What's going on? Who are these fella's?" Peter said. Him and his friends did their usual greeting handshake and then they all turned to the new guys.

"These two just came from the US, Peter." Thomas said. Thomas then whispered into Peter's ear, "And do they have the weirdest names God's creatures have ever created..."

"Hey, the name's Sodapop, and this here is my brother, Ponyboy." One of the new guys said.

Peter face turned red from holding in his laughter, he turned to Thomas who also had the same face. After looking at each other, Peter and Thomas both exploded with laughter.

"Alright..." Peter laughed "We're...we're..." Peter then couldn't hold it and continued to laugh. Arvid then hit the two knuckle heads on the head and they both rubbed the sore spot and breathed heavily from laughing.

"Okay, we're sorry about that man" Thomas said. "This here is Peter. He is one of the best swing dancers you'll ever meet. Well...after me that is" Thomas said sticking his chest out proudly.

"Yeah right!" Peter said. "Anyway, what brings you two out here? This is a bad time to come and take a trip to Germany, with the war going on and everything I mean."

"We got sepereated from our oldest brother..." The one named Ponyboy practically whispered.

"We're sorry to hear that." Arvid said sadly. "You two must be staying at a foster home then, right?"

"Yeah, umm I think her name is Frau Linge. She is real nice lady." Sodapop explained. "But just the other day there was a knock on her door. It was this guy named Herr Hinz, he was saying that he heard that two new healthy boys are now living with her and that they should join the HJ's."

"Frau Linge is one of the nicest people you'll meet." Peter said greatfully. "I heard her grandmother is sick though. How is she feeling?"

"Peter! Didn't you just hear him? The HJ's came to their house and are going to take them away!" Thomas cried out. Then unexpectedly the music shut off and everyone stared at Thomas with a shocked look. "Sorry about that, it was a false alarm." Thomas grinned and waved his hand in the air to cue the music again. The music started and everyone continued to dance.

"Nice job about keeping it quiet Tom..." Arivd said sarcastically.

"Sorry...but that's a big deal. What did Frau Linge say to the Nazi's?" Thomas asked.

"She said that we're still new and that we should get to know more about Germany or something like that. It really didn't make sense, to tell you the truth. But then when the Nazi people left she explained that she just didn't think we were ready for the Nazi Youth but that she doesn't know how long we can stay away from becoming an HJ." Sodapop explained.

"Don't worry we got yer back!" Peter said putting his arm around Thomas and Arvid and clumping their heads together. Thomas and Arvid nodded and pushed Peter for slamming their heads together.

After a breif moment of silence between Peter and the group, a swing kid yelled out "HJ alert! Everyone hide!" Soon everyone scurried around the club, others yelling and trying to find a way out before the HJ's find their secret club.

"C'mon gang, let's get out of here until the coast is clear." Thomas said shoving Sodapop and Ponyboy by the back and showing them the way out.

"Wait, where's Ava?!" Peter said frantically while eyeing the club to find his sister.

"Peter!" Ava came running, afraid of the loud ruckus and the loud bangs on the doors. Peter opened his arms and Ava jumped into his grasp and he picked her up. Even though there are days when this happens, Ava still gets afraid of an HJ alert.

"Alright, let's go" Thomas said holding onto Peter's shoulder and leading him through the commotion of people.
