Do not own anything from Rocket Power unless it is one of my OC's
Summary:Twister has suffered from betrayals and abandonment. Now he is back to continue his life without any problems but that is impossible with old faces trying to come back.
Twister was driving his way back to his original home. Back to the place that he grew up at when he was young. Where all his old friends were or what used to be his friends until high school. He could still remember his freshmen year two years ago. He had entered Pacific High School with the hopes of being with his friends that he had spent all his life with. But, life does not always go as planned. Only two weeks in and all his hopes had gone down the drain. He still remembered the scars that the first two weeks caused.
Flashback:
Twister had gotten a ride from his parents since Lars decided to leave without him. He was happy that he was closer to finishing school because he knew that he wasn't going to college. Let's face it everybody knew he wasn't going to go college, and most were surprised he had even made it to high school with his age group.
He was looking for his friends that he hadn't seen since last week at the end of their hockey tournament in Salt Lake City. They came in second losing to a team that grew up there. They almost had it but were short by one goal to tie and another to win.
Otto was quiet the trip on the plane back. Twist knew that he was mad and disappointed but decided to let him cool off for a while. The rest of the gang was also quiet on the trip: Reggie just worked on her laptop quietly, Sam was looking over some papers, and new members Jack Cinnerso and Taylor Kenneth were sleeping.
Now that Otto had a week to cool off, he should be back to normal. Twist went looking for him to find him with Jack and Taylor. He went to go catch up with them but as he got closer he noticed that they saw him and rushed off. Twist assumed that they just to go look for their classes and decided to catch them later. But every time he got close to them they disappeared.
Four days later…
Twister was getting tired of Otto avoiding him and decided to go talk to him since it was the weekend.
He went next door to find that Otto was out in front fixing his skate board. He saw the Rocket's car gone and didn't see Reggie so he assumed that Ray and Reggie weren't home. He went up to Otto and said hey.
Otto looked up at him and glared at him.
Twister was taken back at this. "What did I do?"
"You know what I noticed as of lately." Otto started coldly to his best friend. "We keep losing because of you."
This shocked Twister. How could he accuse him of being the reason they lose a game.
"You messed up at the tournament and not only there but at other games also. You had the puck stolen at the last moment. I am always there to win the game for the team but my skills can't balance your stupidity. Sometimes I wonder if your stupidity is a disorder or mental problem. You're just too dumb to be friends with anymore. So get out of my face MAURICE."
Twister was too stunned to say anything or stop Otto from leaving. He just went back home to think over just what happened.
END
'He blamed the lost of the tournament and everything else on me. Hm, just one loss and my best bud turns on me. That shows a person the truth about some people. I guess he just forgets that I help win games also and that I was the one that score the goal that got us to the finals. When ever he made a mistake, people were okay with it, but when it comes to me they go all out on the insults.' Twist remembered that Otto was not the only ones to blame him. Most people that both Otto and him were friends with were against him. Not even Reggie was any help.
Flashback
Two days after the talk with Otto
Twist and Reggie were both at the Shore Shack. Reggie was putting on make-up and looking at a mirror while Twist was trying to talk to her.
"He keeps blaming me and now most people are following him and also blame me, Both Jack and Taylor side with him. Some how even Eddie is blaming me for the loss. So can you help me, Reggie?" Twist didn't notice that Reggie was not paying any attention but once she heard her name she looked up.
"Sorry twist but I can't help you. Whatever wrong with Otto, just let him cool down. Right now I'm trying to get ready for a date."
"But Reggie, he keeps blaming me for the tournament. And he is avoiding me..." He was cut off by Reggie. "Look twist, I know that you two have your fights but I am not getting involved anymore. Besides the tournament was my last. I am not going to be doing anymore extreme sports."
With that, Reggie got up and left Twist sitting there by himself.
END
'That was the last decent conversation I had with her, even if it was mostly onesided. She was no help to me, not even the braniac of the group could help me'
Flashback
"Hey Squid, what are you doing." Twister decided to come and visit Sam after most of his friends stop talking to him. Sam was the last he had. It was the Friday of the second week of school.
"Hey Twist" Sam was working on his computer and looking at some papers but he never once glanced at Twist. "I heard about Otto but I can't help you right now. I am too busy right now with school work and the computer club. I'm sure this will blow over. I'll see around but right now I have to get back to work without distractions. See ya Twister"
END
'That was the last I had seen the Squid. He was always too busy to talk or hang with me. Every time I tried his friends from the computer club, his new friends, would say he was busy and give me a glare.
Life from that point went straight to hell for me. I started to feel depressed and useless. After feeling so sorry for myself I had met with the outcasts of the school. They were the only ones that accepted me but they were not my friends. The more I hung out with them the more my life felt like crap. I had done drugs, smoke and drank alcohol. When my parents saw me, they felt disappointed in me. That only added more to my depression.
I wasn't the favored child anymore, hm, I wasn't I child to them anymore. My parents would avoid talking about me and opted to talk more about Lars or switch to other talk. They gave up on me as I gave up on life.
With all this to bear, I couldn't take anymore. I resorted to cutting myself, alcohol nor could drugs take away the pain of abandonment from friends and family. I slit my wrists and any part of my body. I did most over my chest because even though nobody cared, I did not want them to think less of me.
Soon, I had taken one drug that one of the outcasts offered me but I didn't know what. I later found out it was ketamine. After taking it, I grabbed a razor and started to cut myself more. Most of the cuts had healed earlier but now new ones were taking there place. I blacked out after that.'
Flashback
Twister was lying on the ground of his room in a puddle of his own blood. 'I guess this is the end for my miserable life. Nobody to see me die, no one to care, and not a soul to mourn my death. Adios la vida'
Twister closed his eyes to world. He did not hear the knocking on his door or see it open.
Lars was getting ready to School for the Hockey game that he was on the team for. All he needed was his car keys. 'Where did I leave those keys? The last time I had them was………. when I had brought Twist home when I found him drunk again. I must have dropped it in his room when I put him in bed.
Lars went to Twister's room and knocked but got no answer. Assuming he wasn't home, he decided to just go inside.
When he entered what he saw shocked his, his little brother on the floor which was soaked with blood. His baby bro was lying on the floor with numerous cuts over his body and a bag of whit powder next to him.
He noticed his keys on the floor and grabbed them while grabbing the blanket on the bed to wrap around Twister's body. He rushed to his car and rushed to the hospital.
END
'My big brother who always tormented me when I was young was the one that saved me.
After that, my family got scared. They knew I needed help but did not know what to do. There was no one who could watch me. Both my parents were too busy with work and Lars had school to think about.
Then my mother mentioned her sister that lived in New York who just lost her only child in the war at Iraq. Her name was Natalie Gonzalez and she was my most favorite aunt who always loved me. She worked an Executive Board for a big corporation in New York. They had called her and she agreed to take me in and watch me. She paid for therapy for me which helped me a lot. She helped get back on track with school and feel better about myself.
I convinced my family to let me return to Ocean Shores and graduate there. I am on a road trip from New York to California. Now the only scar left is the scar that exists in front of my heart literally and figuratively.'
Twister was driving his hybrid convertible that his aunt bought him and in the next day he will be back at his child hood home. And in a few days will be starting his senior year
Note: Twister had suffered all that in his freshmen year and went to New York at the end of the school year. He had earned 2C's in art, 4D's in PE and History with 30 credits form freshman. He had done summer school and two classes at the local community college to make up 40 credits. He passed all his classes in 10th grade but also took four after school classes earning 100 credits for the year. He then took summer school and three more classes at the same community college giving him 40 more credits. So he is already a senior graduating a year early.
