OK ill shut up now .
December 8, 1941
" NO! NO! NO!" I yelled as I threw my fist threw the wall. Blood poured out of the gash in my knuckles when I rectracted my fist from the broken drywall. The commentary of the recent events of Pearl Harbor repeating itself my ears. The recent blow from the stupid Japs made my blood boil. Two thousand foor hundred of our military men, not counting the civilians, had just been killed in the massacre. Hearing how many ships we had lost also, did nothing but fuel my anger a I ripped my dorm room to shreds. Luckily before I started to tear out the walls and window, Leo and Percy burst into the room. Upon looking at what me and my roommates room looked like, Leo flipped out.
"What the flipping heck, Jared!" Leo yelled as he walked carefully towards me. Percy just stood there, with his jaw dropped and still hanging.
"Did you just hear what happened Leo?!" I asked. He just shook his head and asked me what was going on. I walked over to the radio and turned it up. As the radio repeated once again the events that had taken place more kids had gathered around in the destroyed room. There were only a few I could name, there was me, Leo, Percy, Frank, Jason- the five of us were best friends and had been since we were shipped here to this stupid boarding school- then there was a kid named Kusco who was from a different country that I couldn't remember, a runaway adventurer know as Jim Hawkins, he was from Brooklyn but when his dad died he had gotten rebellious and his mom sent him here. Then there was bulky looking young man about 19, with shaggy blonde hair named Kristoff, originally from Minnesota, his fanily owned an ice business there. Then there was "Wreck-It" Ralph and his best friend "Fix It" Felix , Tadashi and Hiro Hamada, then lastly the youngest of all of us about 15, James Dare AKA "Stitch". Why do we call him Stitch? Because every week he has new stitches to show off. He was mischevious, energetic, stubborn, and while steal you blind of your dessert, and to top it all off he's Hawaiin. There were also about five others that I didn't recognize, the young men stood in me and Leo's room as we all listened to President Roosevelt speak to the heart-broken, and angered country.
I was about ready to break into one of my angered rampages again when I heard Jim and Kristoff say, "I'm gonna join the Army and make those idiotic Japs pay for what they did to us!"
Everyone looked at them with wide eyes and mouths gaped open, as they pushed through the others and walked to the administration's office. When they had left the room everyone had said that they were nuts for wanting to go. Percy and Jason said that they were brave for wanting to defend their country and that they wanted to go too, but if they did then they would have to leave their families and their girlfriends all alone.
You see Wilderness School isn't one of those uptight, stay in line, speak your native tongue and we'll smack you across the room boarding schools. (Thank God for that last one too, because me and Leo weren't born into a English speaking family. I'm Navajo and Leo's Hispanic. So we were born talking in our native tongue and we'd been slapped around a lot using our ancestral language at other boarding schools). But Wilderness school is different, the teachers are patient-sometimes-, they encourage boys and girls to mingle with one another, and try to help you when you struggle with English words, unlike other boarding schools keep the guys and gals separated, and are way too strict. So most of older students have boyfriends or girlfriends, shoot, most of them are married by the age of 21. Jason Grace had met Piper McClean, who is a Cherokee Indian and me and her are great friends, Percy Jackson was with Annabeth Chase, she isn't too fond of me, the only reason why she tolerates me is because I was Percy's first friend. Frank Zhang is with Hazel Levesque, and me an Leo just usually hang around them. Although me and Leo are single, we don't really care. Leo uses it as an excuse to flirt with a bunch of girls around the school, like Elsa Arendalle Winters and her sister Anna, or Astrid, or even Reyna Avilia Ramirez Arellano. Usually the latter girl kicks his butt into next week but hey, he doesn't mind her attention.
Now me, well there ain't much to tell about me. I grew up on the reservation, my family got sick and slowly died off one by one in front of my eyes, started to steal from the people who had more then they knew what to do with, then I got caught by an officer and was thrown from boarding school to boarding school till I ended up here, met Leo and Percy then Frank and Jason then that's about it. I bet your wondering where's your girl Jared, well I ain't got one. No I'm not gay, so don't ask! I just can't work up the courage to actually ask a girl on a date though, I can talk to them no problem, but when I want to ask them out I usually just end up walking away. Of all the time I've been here I've only been on about 5 dates in the past 3 years. It was with Elsa Winters too, well it wasn't really a date more like taking a friend to a dance because the one she really likes, Jackson Overland Frost- my best friend also-, is in the Marines and she really wanted to go to the dance so I asked if she would like me to take her.
Well anyways, when Jim and Kristoff had come back they had a defeated look on their face and were really cussing out the administation office under their breath. They were really angry walking to their room, so I walked over and they had taken to punching a make shift punching bag in the corner of the room. I knocked twice on the doorframe and walked in.
" What happened?" , I asked.
" They won't let us leave to join up!'' , Jim said as he slipped out a bottle of whiskey from behind the closet and took a swig. He handed it over to Kristoff who took a sip also. Then when he had held the bottle out to me, I ssimply passed it back to Jim. Alcohol had destroyed my family, and I didn't want nothing to do with the thing. Jim shrugged, capped the bottle, and tossed it back in the closet.
" Well why won't they let you leave? " I asked, quite annoyed with the school.
" They said that there isnt enough kids wanting to join up. So they said if we get a group of about five people then they will let us go.", Kristoff said.
I thought to myself for about a minute before I came to the conclusion.
" I'll go" I said as I straightened my back and looked them in the eyes. They simply nodded and said okay. So , I thought to myself, me, Kristoff, and Jim make three. Maybe I could talk Jason and Percy to join too. Then we could all join up and take the fight to the Japs.
"Umm, wait here. I'll be right back", I said to the two. Who had already taken out the whiskey again. Probally to work up the courage to tell their girls what's going on. On the walk to where me and the guys usually hang out, I looked down the halls and everything seemed smaller. I walked outside to tell everyone what's gonna happen. I couldn't fight the feeling that this would be the last time I got to see a town not crumbling.
Tell me what you think so far. Also tell me where you think they should go in the war. I'm thinking Saipan, but there's also Guadcanal and a whole lot of places. Let me know.
