Disclaimer: I don't own any of the HG characters…. Blah blah blah. I do own Jackie, Jared and Jackie's grandmother… so don't steal them.



Jackie was introduced to a young blonde woman, Sophie. "She and Peter would look cute together," she smiled to herself.

"Welcome to Horizon Jackie. I'm Sophie," she warmly smiled as Peter left the room. Jackie politely smiled back. "Would you mind?" Sophie asked motioning to Jackie's bag.

"Oh, no, of course not," was Jackie's reply. After about two minutes of searching, Jackie's curiosity got the best of her. "What exactly are you looking for?" she asked.

Sophie looked up with a confused look on her face and wondered, "How can she not know?" "Any drug paraphernalia," she simply stated.

"DRUGS!? Oh my God! I've never touched that crap in my life, let alone store it away in my bags!" Jackie exclaimed. "Oh, no," Jackie thought, " Where am I? They've put me here with a bunch of insane druggies. There's no way the poor kid could be HERE!" Jackie began to get worried.

"Well, you're clean," Sophie said scratching her head.

"Yup," was all Jackie said. The two women walked out of the cabin.

"First you'll get the full tour of horizon. Then we'll get you settled in your cabin for some supervised quiet time. You'll be with the cliffhangers." Sophie explained.

"OK," Jackie replied

"Shelby!" Sophie called to a blond girl at a nearby picnic table.

"I didn't do it," Shelby smartly remarked.

"Chill Shelby, I just thought you'd be willing to give Jackie the royal tour. She's the newest addition to the cliffhangers," Sophie told her.

"New, I can tell. Now, ROYAL tours, I don't do. Tours, yes. Leave the royal part to queenie over there" Shelby responded pointing at a brunette at the table she had just left.

"Shelby, be nice," Sophie warned.

"Fine, whatever," Shelby complained.

"Thanks Shel. Maybe you two can get acquainted."

"Peachy keen," Shelby said rolling her eyes.

Jackie watched on in amusement. "If I ever talked to my teacher like that, I'd probably have detention for a week!" Jackie laughed to herself. Then, it hit her, She wasn't at her old school anymore. She was stuck here, in the middle of nowhere, with a bunch of kleptos, druggies, and sociopathic maniacs."

"Well newbie," Shelby sighed, "Let's go. Welcome to my humble abode."
