Hey Readers! This is my first fanfiction so let's hope it goes well! My story is about one of my favorite TV shows, Kickin' it! It's a story that is mainly centered around Kim and Jack's friendship and love lives. The pairings in my story are Kim x Jack, and a little bit of Milton x Julie, Jerry x Mika, Eddie x Grace, and Rudy x Miss Applebaum. It's mostly going to be in Jack and Kim's P.O.V.'s(point of view), but other character's P.O.V.'s will be included as well. Later on in the story, I will try to upload three of four chapters a day. My story will probably be rated T for violence...just to be safe...okay, well! Enjoy my story and happy reading!
Disclaimer- I do NOT own Kickin' it or anything else in the story except for the plot and any OC's(other characters) it contains.
Chapter 1: Bring It On
*Kim's P.O.V*
I started to breathe heavily. It felt as if I had been running for hours, but it has been only been five minutes. I was sprinting as fast as I could towards the dojo. Rudy, my Sensei, was going to kill me if I was late to practice again! I burst through the mall doors, slowing down to a speed walk as I past Joan's, the head mall security cop and my good friend, office. 'No Running' was a big rule in the mall. I poked my head around the corner, peering into the dojo through the front window. Rudy was probably still in his office so I bolted into the dojo and into the girls' locker room to change into my work out clothes.
As I ran into the locker room, I heard my best friends snickering behind me. I rolled my eyes as I opened my locker. Being the only girl in the dojo meant that I never had to lock up my stuff in fear of it getting stolen. Plus, no one would dare steal from me. I would break their little neck in half! That's right! I've got a second-degree black belt and i'm not afraid to use it!
*Jack's P.O.V*
Jerry and I were sparring. Well, not really sparring...I was kicking his butt! After flipping him onto his back for the fourth time, I helped him back up to his feet. Me being a second-degree black belt and him being only a yellow belt made it kind of easy to beat him. I heard what sounded like someone running up behind me. I spun around to see a flash of blonde hair disappear into the girls' locker room. Eddie, Jerry, and I snickered at the late blonde. It's a good thing Rudy's still in his office or else she would have been toast!
The really weird thing about this though was the fact that Milton hadn't even showed up yet! MILTON! Mr. Always-on-time-for-everything was late! Minutes later, Kim emerged from the locker room, seconds before Rudy exited his office. She quickly joined Eddie over by the punching dummies. I swear, she must be the luckiest girl alive! Rudy's head snapped up from the mail to take account of everyone who was there.
"Alright, let's spar people! Jack vs. Kim, Eddie vs. Jerry, and Milton will just have to go against whoever...wait..where's Milton?" Rudy asked, eyes wide in shock. We all shrugged. "Well, then you four just spar!" He finished, heading back towards his office. I spun around to face Kim. I was finally going to be challenged! I like sparring with the guys and all, but Kim was the only other black belt in the dojo, besides Rudy. At first, I was too scared to hurt her, but after throwing a few fights, I realized Kim Crawford could take care of herself just fine. She isn't a black belt for nothing you know!
We bowed, getting into our fighting stances. Her eyes flickered to something over my shoulder. My back was facing the door so it was probably something going on outside. Fury suddenly blazed in her eyes as her fists clenched. What's up with her? I gave her a confused look as she glanced towards me. She stormed off towards the door as I turned to follow her gaze.
*Kim's P.O.V*
As Jack and I got into our fighting stances, something from outside of the dojo caught my eye. It was a poor, beaten Milton limping towards the dojo at a fast speed. Oh no...that's why he wasn't at practice! I felt my fists clench as I glanced over at Jack. He gave me a confused face, but worry and concern swirled in his eyes. I looked back out the window to see Frank and the other Black Dragons walk towards him. Oh heck to the no!
I angrily marched towards the door, feeling Jack's gaze burn into my back. I swung open the door, letting it slam behind me to add more of a dramatic effect. All their head snapped up to look at me, except for Frank. His hand was grasping the collar of Milton's shirt. Milton's eyes shown with fear until relief washed over him when he saw me.
"Are you ready to do it for us NOW?" Frank sneered. Milton shrunk back slightly.
"I told you my answer! NO! N-O, NO!" He shouted. My eyes narrowed. What are they up to? I placed my hands on my hips as I glared at them all. Frank still hadn't noticed me.
"Leave him alone, Frank." I snarled. His head snapped up at my voice. He rolled his eyes at me mockingly.
"Oh yeah? What if I don't want to leave him alone?" He retorted. I raised an eyebrow at him dangerously, taking a step forward. The other Black Dragons stepped back. Frank stood his ground.
"Then you'll have to deal with me." I replied angrily, leaning on one foot. He huffed at me, turning his attention back to Milton. Milton's face was taken over by a look of terror again.
"This doesn't concern you, Kim." He spat. I darkened my glare, taking another step forward.
"You see, it does concern me. It started concerning me the moment you beat up one of my best friends!" I shouted, clearly pissed off. Frank's head snapped back up to me in shock. The other Black Dragons once again took a step back. I mentally high-fived myself for scaring them.
"Fine, then I guess i'll just have to beat up two people in one day!" He replied cockily, shoving Milton to the ground. He whimpered a little. That just made me even more mad. Does he really think he can beat me? Especially when i'm this pissed?! He threw a punch at me, but I, of course, easily caught it. Part of me wanted to say 'You probably shouldn't have done that!', but that was Jack's catchphrase so I just stuck with my own.
"That's it!" I growled as we got into our fighting positions. He is so going down! Frank charged at me, aiming for another punch. I blocked it, sending a kick to his side. He blocked my attack as well. I kicked at him again, landing it on his chest. He stumbled backwards a few feet, but quickly regained his balance. He tried to swipe my feet out from under me, but I jumped before he had the chance. He tried to kick my stomach, but I caught his foot and threw him into a nearby table. He groaned, clutching his arm, causing me to smirk.
I turned around to look at Milton and the others. Their faces shown with surprise and shock, but Milton's eyes full of relief and pride. What sounded like footsteps pounding on the ground behind me caught my attention. I looked into the front window of Falafel Phil's to see the reflection of an angry Frank coming up behind me. He raised his fists, but I kept my back to him, waiting for the right moment to pull a sneak attack on him. Seconds before his fist reached me, I spun around and caught it. Fear flashed in his eyes as I growled at him. I used his fist to sling shot him in front of me so I could deliver a perfect front snap kick to his stomach. He stumbled backwards as a look of pain crossed his face. I swiftly kicked him in the shin and punched his side. For my final move, I flipped him over my shoulder.
I smirked down at him again, only to be surprised by a foot kicking at the back of my knee, causing me to fall forward. Only moments before I hit the ground, I somersaulted back to my feet. I spun around furiously to face my attacker. My eyebrows raised in shock as I saw Milton, Eddie, and Jerry fighting against the other Black Dragons. I smiled at them as I jumped back into the action. Bring it on, Black Dragons! Bring. It. On.
*Milton's P.O.V*
Holy Christmas Nuts! If Kim hadn't shown up, I would have probably been reduced to an unrecognizable blob on the sidewalk! All this for some stupid favor they wanted.
(Flashback)
I carefully placed school textbooks into my locker in alphabetical order. I smiled as I readjusted the framed picture of me and my girlfriend, Julie.
"Hey there, Milton." a voice sneered from behind me. I gulped. That voice belonged to Frank. I had stayed after school to give my Advance Calculus Teacher the homework for the next two weeks, but Jack and Kim had already left...they were the only ones who could really beat up Frank. Me? I didn't have a chance against him. I slowly turned around, finding myself face-to-face with Frank. My throat went dry as I tried to speak.
"W-what do you w-want, F-frank?" I choked. He exchanged evil glances with the other five Black Dragons that were with him.
"We want you," he said, gesturing towards the others. "to help trick Kim into coming back to her rightful home: The Black Dragon Dojo." He finished. A lump formed in my throat. If I said yes, I would be able to avoid the beating of a lifetime. But if I said no, then I would get punched and kicked to the next century. Memories of all the things Kim had done for all of us flashed through my mind. Her walking into the dojo after our tournament with the Black Dragons. Her falling off a cliff after being attacked by a mother falcon when we were helping Eddie with his treasure hunt. Her and Jack helping to get me and Julie together. Her helping me get over my fear of kissing Julie. Her fighting along side us throughout all of our battles. Her helping me protect the vole we found on the skate park site. She did so many things for us! I can't just throw her under the bus now. I ball of courage suddenly appeared in my gut.
"No." I stated firmly. Their eyes widened in shock. Didn't expect that, did you? Immediately, they all glared at me.
"What did you just say?" Frank threatened, taking a step toward me. I felt myself start to cower away, so I forced myself to stand my ground.
"You heard me! I said no!" I shouted. Frank's fists clenched as his eyes narrowed even more. He cracked his knuckles, taking another step towards me.
"Maybe you just need a little convincing.." He snarled. The next thing I knew, I was on the ground in pain. After a few minutes of agonizing pain, they backed away.
"So, what's your answer now, Nerd." He snapped. I slowly got back up to my feet, slipped my backpack back onto my shoulders, and did the only thing I could do. I ran. I ran as fast I could towards the dojo. I knew I had to get out of there. They would just keep beating me up until I finally caved in! At least at the dojo, Jack, Kim or Rudy could protect me.
-(end of flashback)-
I looked into Kim's eyes. Fire blazed in them. Her face was as hard as stone, but I knew that on the inside, she was loving this little show-down. She was beating Frank like there was no tomorrow! I wanted to cheer 'Yeah! Go, Kim!', but I didn't want to distract her or make her laugh. She had to look intimidating and fierce right now, not smiling and giggling. Along with all the other Black Dragons, I was surprised at how scary Kim looked right now. She looked as if she was about to rip Frank's throat out! We just stood there, gaping at her as she continued to dodge and block his attacks. I noticed Jerry and Eddie walk out of the dojo as well. They came over to stand by me, eyes trained intently on Kim and Frank's fight. Go, Kim!
*Jerry's P.O.V*
Eddie and I were sparring until we heard a familiar voice yelling. We faced the window with confused faces. There we saw Kim screaming at the Black Dragons and a poor, beaten Milton lying on the ground. Within moments, Frank and Kim were fighting. We ran outside as Kim continued to kick Frank's butt!
After she flipped Frank onto his back, one of the Black Dragons kicked at the back of her knee. She somersaulted to safety as Eddie, Milton, and I sprung into action. Kim shortly reentered the fight, helping us to take the guys we were fighting down. After a while, they all remained moaning on the ground.
"Yeah, that's right! When you mess with one of us, you mess with ALL the Wasabi Warriors!" She yelled at them as they hobbled away towards their side of the mall. We all high-fived and congratulated each other for a job well done. Jack crashed through the dojo door.
"Aw man! I missed it?" He pouted. We all laughed at him, patting him on the back as we reentered the dojo.
*Jack's P.O.V*
After watching Kim storm out of the dojo, I saw a bruised and limping Milton outside, cowering away from Frank and five other Black Dragons. My fists clenched as fire burned in my stomach. I hope you like having your bones broken, Black Dragons! Before I could take a step forward, somebody called my name.
"Hey, Jack! Can you come to my office for a second?" Rudy asked. I frowned, but nodded. As I walked towards Rudy's office, I longingly looked back towards the scene outside. The Black Dragons were nervously backing away from Kim. I smiled at the sight. Kim can handle this! She always can. That's one of the things I love about her...yes, I said LOVE. I, Jack Brewer, am IN LOVE with my best friend, Kim Crawford!
"What is it, Rudy?" I asked, confusion, disappointment and a hint of worry in my voice. I shut the door behind me and plopped down onto his old, dusty couch.
"Well, Jack, the big, yearly Karate Competition coming up. Whoever wins with the best karate skills, their dojo gets $500! We could do a lot of things with that money for the dojo and it would give this place lots of publicity!" He answered excitedly. I smiled.
"So, you want to enter me in it?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at me. He nodded his head. I instantly jumped off the couch and threw my hands up into the air.
"YES! Yes, I would LOVE to represent our dojo in the competition!" I almost screamed. Rudy smiled, pulling out a calendar from his desk drawer.
"Great! It's in a few months so you don't have much time to train. You'd better get started while I call the guy in charge and sign you up!" He responded, circling a date on his calendar. I nodded, sitting back down on the couch. My smile faded a bit. Why was Rudy asking me to enter the competition? Why not Milton or Eddie or Jerry or Kim? Okay, I can see why he didn't ask Milton or Eddie or Jerry, but Kim was just as good at karate as I am! If anything, I'm a little better then her, but that feisty blonde can kick your butt anytime, anywhere!
Rudy picked up his office phone and punched in a number. I suddenly remembered the current situation happening outside with the Black Dragons. I quickly got back up from the couch, gesturing towards the door. Rudy nodded, allowing me to leave. I quietly shut the door behind me, bolting towards the entrance I crashed through the door, only to see, to my dismay, the Black Dragons limping away. I frowned as I turned back to the group of teens high-fiving each other.
"Aw man! I missed it?" I pouted. They all laughed at me, patting my back as they walked past me and into the dojo.
-(Line Break)-
Everyone was very excited for me after I told them about the competition. They told me they were going to be there with me every step of the way, cheering me on. I'm so glad to have them as my best friends! Practice was almost over and we were all getting kind of hungry.
"We should head over to Falafel Phil's! Eddie exclaimed.
"I'm starvin', yo! Let's head!" Jerry replied.
"I'm in!" Milton agreed. Kim pursed her lips.
"Eh, why not?" She added. All their eyes turned to me. I sighed. I REALLY want to go, but with this competition coming up, I need to train. Especially since I have to qualify for if first.
"I wish I could, but I should probably keep practicing for the competition." I answered glumly. They all gave me an understanding look.
"It's alright, Jack. We understand."Eddie reassured me as they walked off towards the boys' and girls' locker rooms. I sighed as I picked up a bo staff and started a new routine.
*Kim's P.O.V*
I'll admit it, I was a little bummed out when Jack said he couldn't come with us over to Falafel Phil's...okay REALLY bummed out. I guess you could say I maybe possibly have a teeny-tiny, itty-bitty crush on him. Okay, i'm just lying to myself now! The truth is, I am IN LOVE with him! I, Kim Crawford, love my best friend, Jack Brewer.
I slipped off my green, Bobby Wasabi t-shirt and white, short sweats. I pulled on my shirt v-neck and slipped my navy blue skirt over my gray tights. I zipped up my brown combat boots and pulled my long chain necklace with a black wing over my head. I took out my pony-tail, letting my soft, blonde curls loose. I folded up my workout clothes and stuffed them into my duffel bag. When I walked out of the locker room, I saw Eddie, Jerry, and Milton sitting on one of the red benches as they watched Jack train. I stuffed my duffel bag into my locker and walked towards them.
"Ready to go?" I asked. They all jumped up and headed for the door. We crossed the court yard and into Falafel Phil's. As we sat down at our regular booth, we began laughing and reminiscing about our little encounter with the Black Dragons. Ah, yes. We are awesome!
There's chapter one for ya! Hope you liked it! More KICK stuff happening next chapter and also...
SPOLIER ALERT ABOUT NEXT CHAPTER!: Jack might get a little...jealous...Find out why in the next chapter of "Fighters together, Friends forever"!
