A/N
This is based on a dream I had, after that I tried to remember where I've seen it before. Later I just thought: 'Hey! This would be a great story!' and I started thinking in my head, eventually I came up with lots of great things. I think...
Anyway, READ and REVIEW!
I woke up, the rain was pouring outside the window and the thunder roared. Great, another horrifying day! Note the sarcasm, I hate thunder! It literally frightens me to death. I want to roll up into a ball and hide in some corner. But the only thing I could do now was to get out of bed and get ready for school.
In school I would be safe, there's Jack. He always protects me even though he don't need to. Like when Ricky Weaver came to our school or when I had to go to the cotillion. He was so sweet, but I didn't notice it.
I walked into the kitchen and began making some toast and an egg. When I was done with the food I poured some orange juice into a glass and sat down by the table. My parents were out of town on a business trip and they were gonna be away for a month. A month! A freaking month! How am I gonna survive?
I looked around the room for something to distract me from my thoughts 'cause they were starting to get ridiculous. My eyes landed on a little box on the drawer with a note on top of it. I got curious and pulled out the chair so I could stand up. When I got closer I saw that the note had my name on it. I picked it up and began reading it.
To Kim
Hey honey. We left some things in the box for you to use during the month. Remember that we love you and that you can always call us if you need any help. If you don't feel like talking to us, remember that Jack is always there to help you out. We're sure he would gladly help you! Since you always talk about him.
/love mom & dad
Okay, so they know about my crush on him. Yes, I, Kim Crawford has a crush on the one and only Jack Anderson. But he's way out of my league, if not even Donna Tobin can have him, then definitely I can't. I'm not sure why he said no when she asked him out in the first place. He has always been chasing her around so, why?
Thinking about this I totally forgot about the little box, until it surprisingly jumped. A little box jumped! I quickly snapped out of my thoughts and took a step back. After waiting a minute I decided that I imagined it and slowly approached again. I opened it and got surprised how much random stuff there were.
I brought the box to the table and quickly laid all the things in front of me. All of the things reminded me of the stuff in Harry Potter.
* a quill pen
* black ink
* colorful cards
* a 'wand'
* a pouch of gold, silver and bronze coins
What do they think I need this stuff for? It's not like I am some sort of wizard right. I won't call my parents freaks, but this is freaky. They should have lend me some money, at least. I can't survive on nothing!
I put the things away in the box again, just for safety and finished my breakfast. After that I went up the stairs to get dressed and fix my messy hair. When I was done I looked in the mirror thinking: 'Hey cutie!' before I walked up to the front door.
I was reaching for the doorknob when I heard a light thud coming from the table. The box still laid there and I thought for a moment. That would be pretty nice stuff for Jerry to play with. Okay, it sounded really bad, but it's true! He loves Harry Potter! So I'll bring it to school and give it to him. But, wouldn't it look really embarrassing to let him wave around with a 'wand' all day in front of the whole school? Ugh, no thank you!
I'll give it to him at the dojo, you know, so he won't poke someone in the eye. And I'll take them to school so I won't forget them later.

I eventually entered the school doors after a thoughtful walk and immediately saw the guys hanging around Jack's locker. Jack was in the middle looking terrifyingly cute. Don't get me wrong, he wasn't terrifying, he was just so cute that you could think he was something from a dream. Of course every girl at school thought he was cute. I'm serious, EVERY girl. But I can't stop myself from thinking the exact same thing. And I'm not a normal girl, I mean, I'm not 'Tihihi shoes!'. Okay, maybe that was a little over the top, but you get the point.
After a while I caught myself starring and began walking again. It took me a couple of second to realize that all of them saw and I felt my cheeks getting hot.
"Hi guys!" I greeted when I got to the lockers."So what are you talking about?" I asked when they didn't reply.
"NOTHING!" Jack shouted which made me jump."Huh, I mean, nothing that you would care about." He blushed. Wait, blushed? Why did he blush? Something's going on and I'm going to the bottom of it. I was about to say something back when the bell rang and all of us split up leaving for our classes.

I walked through the doors of the Bobby Wasabi dojo and saw the usual situation: Jack punching dummies, Milton hurting himself with a bow staff and Jerry and Eddie eating a pizza. I stepped in front of the two eaters and gave them my famous death glare. They spit out the food they had in their mouths and looked at me apolitically. The usual everyday routine.
I was about to go and talk to Jack when I remembered the little box in my bag. I turned around and got Jerry's attention."My parents left me some strange things at my house and I thought you would like to borrow them." I handed him the little box.
"It's not a bomb is it?" He asked suspicious and shook the box. All the other gathered around us and looked like Jerry would have looked during math."No, of course not! It's just some stupid toys or something, either way, if it's something I figure I don't need, you can keep it." He instantly opened it and picked up the 'wand'."SWAG!" He shouted and started waving around with it like it was real. I looked at the enthusiastic boy play around with it and then realized that Jack were starring at me.
"What?" I asked and he looked away in an instant."Oh, uh, nothing..." He answered, the mystery tenses. Then I realized a tiny blush on his cheeks. What's up with him? He is like Milton around Julie, wait! That-that means... he-he likes me?
"What? No I don't!" Jack said nervously the blush getting bigger."What, I didn't say anything." I answered casually."Yes, you did." He fought back."No, I didn't. Guys-" I got the others attention."did I say anything?" I asked them with a winning smile.
"No, Jack said: 'No, I don't' to nothing" Milton answered. Good, if he answers, everybody believes in him."O-okay..." Jack backed away in defeat.
"Kim, hold this." Jerry gave me the stick and continued searching through the box. He found the cards first and started reading from them, I don't really know what he said 'cause I think it was in some random language.
Just for fun I started waving slightly with the stick, the waving turned into bigger waving. Suddenly, a little flame appeared on the edge. No one gave much attention to me and I stood there in shock. I snapped out of it and continued waving slow again. The fire got bigger and bigger and eventually it was like a portable fireplace. The stick, or should I say wand, got really hot and I tried to wave harder to make it go out. Of course it didn't work and my hand were starting to hurt badly. The pain was to much and I screamed and dropped the wand which immediately got out. I continued screaming laud and clear and opened my hand to see a big burn mark that stung like hell.
The guys ran to my side when I fell on the floor in pain. Jack was first of course considering his hero complex."What is it Kim?" He sounded really worried. I showed him my hand and he told Milton to go get some cold water. The tears were streaming down my face in pain but I didn't found a reason to scream anymore. He came back with a bucket of cold water and Jack carefully placed my hand in the cold water. The pain didn't go away completely
"What happened?" Jack asked still worried."The wand, it burned me." I answered and pointed at the little peace of wood. He walked over to it, but as soon as he touched it, his hands flew to his ears and he fell backwards.
A/N Sooooo? How was it? Well, I hope you liked it 'cause it happened some strange things and I had to write everything again. I can't tell when or if I'll update. Sometimes I forget all about stuff like this and then never continue. But this time I will do anything to continue! As I said, can't tell when I'll update but it can take around a month if I'm very lazy. I can't use our computer Monday - Thursday but I'll try to get access to it as often as I can.
Well REVIEW, I can take any feed-back!
