This is my first attempt at a Johnny Quest fan fic.
A little Background.
Jessie and Johnny are the same age Johnny is older by a month. Estella lives with them, while she isn't on a dig. Hadji has left once again to rule his country. Jessie and Johnny are seniors in high school. Race and Mr. Quest have taken off again on some quest around the world. Johnny is upset because this is the week his mother died and his dad isn't here.
Chapter 1 Family Sucks
"Johnny, come on and get up! It's the first day of our senior year! It's going to be great I don't want tot miss a thing! Let's go!!" Jessie exclaimed happily as she pulled the covers off of Johnny's bed. Johnny just groaned as he felt the covers fly off of him. "What the... Jessie!! I am up back off! I will be ready and downstairs in five minutes, go!" Johnny exclaimed back.
Jessie gave him a look and headed downstairs and went into the kitchen for breakfast. When she entered the kitchen she noticed her father and Dr. Quest having a serious discussion with her father. "Oh great! I know that look, you two are leaving and going somewhere. The icing on that cake is that Johnny and I can't come isn't it?" Jessie interrupted the men's conversation. "Now, Jess." was all Race got out before Jessie continued on.
"I can't believe this! You both just got back, this year is supposed to be different remember? This year we are supposed to take less business trips and spend more time at home. Remember have a normal life!!! " Jessie yelled as she got a bowl and began to pour some cereal in it. Race and Benton looked ashamed, and didn't comment on Jessie's very valid argument. The men picked up their papers and but them in their briefcases by the door. Jessie poured milk on her cereal, and sat down and began to eat when she looked at the door. "You are leaving today? How could you. When were you going to tell me and Johnny huh? Or were you even going to? Were you just going to let us come home to an empty house, and figure out for ourselves who was staying with us this time?" Jessie yelled.
Jessie had only taken a few bites of her cereal before throwing it down the drain and washing the bowl out. Johnny had just walked in to her the last of Jessie's argument. "What's going on? Jessie I can hear you yelling all the way upstairs." Johnny said as he set his book bag down and grabbed a doughnut and a got himself a glass of milk with the milk Jessie had left out. She glared at him and grabbed her bag before speaking, "I'll be in the car. I'm driving today, we are talking my car." With that Jessie took her keys off the table and slammed the door so hard the house shook a little.
Johnny sat at the table eating his doughnut while he watched Jessie storm out the door. Race and Benton shuddered as the door slammed. "What bee climbed up her butt? When she got me up this morning she was all smiles. Is it that time of the month?" Johnny asked as he polished off the last of his doughnut and took his plate and glass to the sink. "No, Johnny it isn't that. Jessie is upset with your father and me. Benton, I will meet you outside." Race said as he walked out the door with his travel bag and brief case. He wanted to make sure Jessie was really okay, and to say goodbye to his daughter.
"Why does Race have his.? No dad. Tell me you aren't leaving! TELL ME! TELL ME!!!" Johnny screamed as he answered his own question. Benton came over to his only son, put a hand on his shoulder, and spoke softly, "I am sorry I have to go. I don't have a choice in the matter." "That's bull! You always have a choice!! I can't believe you; you of all people would leave this week!! Wait, I understand why you are leaving. Your job always did come before me." With that said Johnny grabbed his bag and headed out to Jessie's car.
Race, had just moved away from his daughter's car when he saw Johnny emerge from the house. He saw the tears streaming down Johnny's face, and knew that Benton and Johnny's conversation hadn't gone well. Johnny got into Jessie's car and threw his bag in the backseat, not even bothering to wipe the tears away. "Let's go." Was all Johnny could say. Those words were all that Jessie needed, as she peeled out of the driveway leaving tire marks of where she had been.
