So this story is under the assumption that Jay from TDRR is around 16-17 and Nia is 19 in the flashback. I didn't see anyone have a problem when Noah(19) started dating Emma(21-22), so I don't think this constitutes as pedophilia. So haters, gtfo my page. Also in this AU neither TD nor TDRR exist. It's more of a strict boarding house, that some students rebel against ( But I should probably finish Hello Ladies first.)

"Jay? Jay...JAY!" The boy in question pops his head from under the bed covers. He glances at the clock. It is 12:00 a.m. He moans and wipes his eyes. His perky, yet lovable girlfriend had woken him up early again.

"Happy anniversary, Jakey-Jay!" Nia chirps, pecking him on the cheek. He blushes and shakes his head. Here she was already in her everyday wear.

"Morning, I guess," he yawns. "Nia, it's midnight. What could possibly be so important?"

"Well, it's tradition in my family that we remember when we first met at the midnight of our anniversary," she replied.

"I still can't believe that just a year ago I found such an amazing woman," Jay swoons. Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined meeting her and having such an adventure through it.

One Year Ago

The Chris McLean Academy was large and in charge-literally- but a group of rebels were making things difficult. Shawn, Gwen, Brick, Jo, Zoey, Mike, Sammy, Jasmine, Sanders, Macarthur, Dawn and Ella made up Team Amazonian Victory (Blame Brick and Jo). The academy's lapdogs consisted of Heather, Alejandro, Scott, Duncan, Josee, Jacques, Lightning, Amy, Scarlett and Max. They called themselves the Villainous Vultures. Nia was part of the Vultures. Everyone else was either neutral or too scared to join either side. As a result, a team of diplomats was sent to the rebels' base to investigate, including Nia and her team of Jay, Mickey, and Cameron. They believed that if Nia had a weak front, the rebels would be sympathetic and relent.

"I'm really scared Jay," Mickey complained. "What if the rebels are really mean? They might hurt us!"

"I have to say, the chances of a physical confrontation are very high," Cameron noted.

"That's not helping Cameron," Jay chided. Cameron shrugged.

"It's not positive, but it's better than leaving our minds vulnerable with impossible outcomes." he simply responded. Nia ignored all three of them.

"Chris McLean is such an $$hole," she thought. "I showed my best, kissed his $$ for three years, and what does he do? Instead of placing me in the elite front of the Vultures, he wants me to play peacemaker, stuck with three twigs for soldiers!"

Jay tripped on a rock and collided into Nia. Both of them fell down hard. Jay jumped up quickly.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry I, uh..." he stammered. He tried to reach for the fallen soldier's arm, but she jerked it away. Physical Contact is forbidden between people of two different statuses. Status was determined by skill in battle The elite Vultures were Diamonds, Nia was a Gold, Jay and the others were Geodes.

"I'm fine," she snapped. "Knowing you guys, it was bound to happen eventually. Now the three of you just stand here and try not to break anything while I go talk to Scarlett."

The three stood obediently while she closed the door containing the elite Vultures behind her.

She bowed slightly and said, "Vulture Scarlett?"

"Speak." the redhead in question ordered.

"Your plan of meeting the rebels, it seems off," she whispered. Scarlett raises an eyebrow.

"How?" she asked, with no small amount of snark.

"You see, if I appeared weak in front of the rebels, there's a strong chance they could...attack and hold us hostage." Nia answered.

"And?" the elite Vulture asked. It was clear she did not care for the causalities that were bound to occur.

"I was wondering, Vulture Scarlett, if I could replace my squad with someone...stronger?" she pleaded.

Before Scarlett could speak an Australian voice rang out.

"Vultures!" the voice cried. "This is not your territory! Leave now!"

The voice belonged to Jasmine, the leader of the rebellion.

"The rebels!" Jay gasped. "They're here!"

All three boys cowered behind Nia. Jasmine was not alone. MacArthur and Jo followed suit.

"Ok, think Nia," she mused. "They're bigger and stronger, and your team is a bunch of pansies. But, you are smarter and faster. Find a way to outsmart them."

As she thought this, the rebels had broken into the school and taken away students as hostage. Her brother Noah was taken with them.

"Guys, we have to do something!" Jay exclaimed.

"Yeah, sit here and accept death!" Mickey cried.

"No, what he means is that we should amalgamate our forces to provide a stronger front." Cameron added.

"Huh?" the twins said in unison. Cameron sighed.

" Just let me stand on your shoulders," he explained in exasperation.

They resembled the cheerleaders pyramid. They ran- err, stumbled toward the rebels. Unfortunately, one tackle from Jo made them come falling. Jay recovered quickly. His twin brother and Cameron were not as lucky. MacArthur swooped down and lifted them off their feet. Jo started barreling towards Nia, who was still in shock of witnessing her brother get captured. Without thinking, her lunged at Nia, pushing her out of the way. By the tine the dust cleared the Geode found himself on top of the Gold, and a crowd of Diamond Vultures had formed around them.

MacArthur, Jo and Jasmine took this as an opportunity to flee.

"Uh, bye!" Jasmine said, and they took off. The Diamond Vultures closed in on Jay and Nia. They had never seen two people of different statuses coming together like this.

"A Geode touching a Gold?!This is unheard of!" Heather cried.

"Shameful!" Alejandro added

"Seriously lame," Duncan sneered, glaring at Jay in particular.

Scarlett growled, "You never specified how many people would be held hostage by the rebels. You made it seem that this would be an easy win for us. Not to mention the condition you're in right now." Her eyes burned in an accusatory manner.

"Wait!" Jay called out. "It was my fault!"

"Seems that punks like you need to be put in their place," Duncan snarled, menacing towards Jay. Nia saw an opening in the crowd and ran through it, dragging Jay through the field of punches and curses. They didn't stop running until they reached the swampy area outside of the academy.

"Why did you do that?" Jay asked, on the verge of hysteria.

"I don't know, why did you push me like that?" she responded.

"I don't know! Oh, my brother is captured, I'm screaming for no apparent reason and I'm so confused!" Jay exclaimed. "I'm sure nothing else can go wrong!"

Nia glared at him "What the ever loving hell?"

Rain. Lightning. Thunder.

"That was the dumbest thing you could have said!" Nia giggles

"Don't remind me..."

Shivering in a cave, Nia started a fire. She pulled back some of her damp hair, revealing her dark brown eyes. Her face highlighted determination wanted to go to this school

Jay blushed and looked away.

"Sorry for acting so mean earlier..."

"...'s okay. You did kind of save me." Jay replied.

"I really care about my brother and seeing him captured by the rebels...broke me." she sniffled.

"I care about my twin brother a lot too..." was all he could say.

"I know it seems that I really want to be a Diamond, but I would never stoop so low as to hurt other human beings. I never even wanted to go to this school, but when my parents mysteriously disappeared, I had no choice." she whispered.

"So, how did it feel, intermingling with the commoners?" Jay asked, attempting to flirt with her.

"To be honest, it felt good. Like I was on equal footing. No more looking up at people."

"Oh... uh, well I just can't stop thinking..."

"So... um, did you say I was different?"

"And you haven't before-"

"Of course not! When would I have ever?"

Jay blushed in embarrassment. "I'm so sorry..."

"No, no don't be." she giggled

"But your exiled forever!"

"What about you?"

"What about me?"

"Well, you're here too. We're here together."

"I really like you," Jay blurted out. He covered his mouth.

"Me too, that about you," she swallowed hard.

"Oh, God. That was embarrassing," Jay groans.

"And so cute!" Nia adds, blushing at his inadvertent profession of love.

"HALT! VULTURE!" Sanders called out. All of Team Amazonian Victory materialized in the swamp. Nia held on tight to Jay's hand

"Don't hurt him! I'm the one you want!" Nia screamed

"Wait." Jasmine commanded. They focused on Nia's hand in Jay's.

"A Geode with a Gold?" she pondered in curiosity

"Wait, so you aren't disgusted with us?" Nia asked

"Of course not! Team Amazonian Victory encourages diversity. In fact we don't even have status!" Jasmine replied.

"Wait, what about our siblings?" Nia demanded. "Where have you taken them?"

"They're safe at the base. You should join us. You'll be welcomed here." Ella encouraged. Nia reluctantly nodded. So did Jay, his eyes never leaving Nia's.

Now

"And we won the rebellion and lived happily every after" Nia finishes, giving her lover another kiss on the cheek. "Now you can go back to sleep, Jakey-Jay."

"Actually, I'm no longer sleepy. It's because of you I'm stronger physically and as a person. In fact, I think I'm ready for another adventure." Jay replies. He holds out a ring. "Care to join me?"

She answers with a full on kiss on the lips.
