Chapter 1

Ok this story is going to be about Jackson's past, Jackson's past is his life in that bad part of town. It's with the Freedom Writers. This is set in Season 2 after the Drift.

Jackson sat out onto the beach after breakfast starring at the horizon. He wished to be back home. But with Mrs. G and his old classmates. In freshman year he was known as the white boy, but Ms. G changed there classroom room 203. and he became friends with blacks, and others.

He grew attached to all of them. With his hard life outside of school, he always was excited to get back to school. On the last day of Sophomore year after school he was walking home. When he arrived home he foster parents explained to him that they were going to move to another part of Los Angeles. With better homes, and not being faced to being shoot every time they stepped outside there doors.

Jackson was so upset. But his foster parents made a deal with him that they wouldn't move until 4 months after school started. Jackson didn't like it at all, but he really couldn't do anything about it.

Mrs.G taught him so much. She made him enjoy reading and writing. He even enjoyed playing his guitar more that his real father gave to him before he died. He even wrote a few songs. Then it clicked, Jackson remembered the journal that he wrote in everyday. He brought it with him to this knew part of Los Angeles.

When he arrived to his knew school, he stopped writing. He had no idea why. He then hoped that he packed the journal with him. He then stood up and dusted the sand from his pants. He then walked up to camp.

At camp only Mel and Nathan were there. Mel was their boiling water and Nathan was working on the wooden shelter. Jackson quickly walked past them into the plane to get his journal. He hoped he brought it with him. He searched until he reached the bottom of his bag and he found it.

Jackson gave a grin and grabbed it, closed up his bag and walked out of the plane and onto the beach once again. He sat onto the beach and slowly opened the journal. Everything was there that he wrote. There was still have the book left for writing. Jackson decided to take that half and title it "The Island" So then Jackson began to write.

It feels pretty good to be writing in this journal again. This journal helps me remember all the good times and the bad. Now my foster parents moved me to this other part of Los Angeles. I'm going to this school, it's I nice school there is no hate because of color, there is no war going on so I that's good. But this school is filled with all of these spoiled rich kids who only know that I came from a bad part of town. There's this one girl, her name his Melissa she was the only one who greeted me. She then like invited me on this class trip to Plowe, It was going to be this awesome trip, we were going to spend 7 days and 7 nights in the jungle. I really didn't have the money, but the school raised enough for a Hartwell student who can't afford it to go, so they picked me. It seemed so great to go. Now with Mrs.G and them I kept in touch and I decided to visit, My old friends. I was telling them about this adventure that I was going on, everyone seemed thrilled except for one guy. He said that I changed that I was saying that I was better then them. It wasn't true. Then I fight broke out, and someone pulled a knife and he got hurt. This was the night before we left. And I was there and now the cps are after me. It's scary. Now I'm still trying to decide if I want to get rescued or not and it's

Jackson stopped writing and closed his journal when he heard a voice.

"Hey Jackson, it's time for lunch." said Melissa as she walked up to him.

"Really already, this morning went pretty fast." said Jackson.

"Yea I guess It did." said Melissa as she began walking back to camp.

Mel then turned around to see if Jackson was following her.

"Hey you coming?" called Mel.
