Chapter 2
11 years ago, there was Katelyn, at the park with her mum. She was in the gym part of the park where no one was around. She started playing an exercise game. The aim of the game was to touch as many of the glowing buttons as you can. Kind of like the game, 'Whack a mole' or something like that.
Katelyn got tired of it after a while, and she went outside again to ride the bike.
When she came back, there was a boy about her age. He had with him a soccer ball. He started the button game, only he was hitting the buttons with the ball when it flashed. Miraculously (well it's a close miracle because I can't do it!), they all hit the right buttons. When he did that twice all the way through, he noticed Katelyn staring at him in amazement. He asked to her;
"Do you want a go?" and passed her the soccer ball,
"um… ok, I'll try" She said, and tried.
She tried and tried, but she couldn't get it. She got a couple, but not all. She was nearly in tears trying to get at least 5, but she wouldn't give up. Finally, the boy said,
"You never give up do you?" and looks at Katelyn. Katelyn wiped away tears, pushed the stop button, and smiled. The boy seemed to be a little taken a back by the tears, but smiled back and said something, introducing himself, but Katelyn did not remember, that was what she was thinking about through the 3rd and 4th class. She had this strong doubt that it was Jack, 5 years old, but she still couldn't remember his name.
"Hey… Was it Katelyn?" Jack suddenly asked Katelyn.
She jumped up in surprise
"What?
Oh, yeah it is!" Katelyn said as she slowly tuned back in to the
real world.
"Ehem!" Natasha coughs loudly
"would you like a cough lolly now? Katelyn asked. Everyone except Natasha and her friends laughed, Katelyn and Jack smile at each other.
"So, how was Jack?" Sophie asks Katelyn on the way out of the class as the bell rang
"Er… Nice/normal?" Katelyn replies,
"Do you want to stay with me to watch Tom & Jack play soccer? They have their practices today"
"Yeah fine" Katelyn looks cautiously around the corridor for Natasha just in case she heard.
Katelyn sat and watched in amazement at the soccer practice. She found herself CONSTANTLY looking at Jack!! She thought as she continued to watch that it really was him 11 years ago. (I'm sure she stared at him only for that reason!! "Shut up author!!" Katelyn mumbles, sorry)
Then Katelyn realised that Natasha had come to watch the practice as well
"Oh no, crazy girl alert!!" She whispers to Sophie.
"Having fun?" Natasha asked as she approached them
"Yeah, fun! Really fun watching isn't it!" Katelyn replied. Natasha ignores that.
You can tell they care about each other so much… ish… not!!
"They've
finished Kate!" Sophie says as she tries to break the 'look'
competition.
"Oh, right" Katelyn stood up and looked towards
the oval.
Every player was getting a drink. Just for a bit, Jack looked toward Katelyn. She put up a hand to wave-
"Don't wave to him!" Natasha yells,
"I was only saying 'hi'! Are you having problems restraining yourself in your blonde brain?" Katelyn yells and walks off… (Ouch)
She'd walked about a block from the school when she heard someone running up to her. She turned around to find Jack coming after her!
"What are you…?" She began,
"I… heard that… Natasha said something… and you left… So I… thought to come after you… cause Sophie's worried…" and Jack stopped to catch his breath
"Gee you didn't have to…" Katelyn trailed off.
Jack started walking again as he caught his breath and Katelyn started walking with him as well.
"Hey…" they both started and ended at the same time and hesitated to speak.
"Do I know you from like… 11 years ago?" Katelyn finally asked after the awkward silence,
"Maybe… Er… yeah" Jack replied slowly.
"Were you the kid at Mt. Lock Park?" Katelyn asks sounding a little excited
"Yeah" Jack replies still slowly
"Oh, yeah I thought I'd seen you from somewhere! I just didn't have a clue where though" Katelyn laughed…
10 minutes later, Sophie came with Mr. Dean the family driver (Sophie's family is 'RICH').
"So, how was your 1st time 'alone'?" Sophie asked cheekily,
"What the hell are you…!" Katelyn and Jack both say.
Sophie giggles and says, "Did anything 'interesting' happen?"
"Sophie!" Katelyn starts,
"I'm not part of this…" Jack sits back in his seat looking away from the arguing people.
They stopped at a 'HUGE' mansion looking house.
"Wow! that is huge…" Katelyn mumbles looking at the house.
"Didn't you know my parents are famous?" Jack says to Katelyn,
"Oh, are they?" Katelyn replies,
"My dad's an author of a best-seller book, my mum's a retired actress!" Jack says as he took his seat belt off
"Wow, where's your parents then?" Katelyn asks,
"They don't live with me" Jack says,
"Don't you miss them?" Katelyn asks,
"Not really" Jack replies getting out of the car,
"Really? Wow…that's odd…" Katelyn says looking, rather in the negative side.
"Hang on, where do you live then?" Jack asks after a slight pause when he showed a sign of annoyance,
"Next to her-" she points to Sophie
"-so not far"
"Oh, right" Jack finishes.
"Thanks for the lift!" Jack says to Mr. Dean, does a mini salute thing and walks to his house.
It was after school the next day (the day was pretty much the same as the first day). Katelyn had started to walk home, but she had this strange prickly feeling that someone was watching her. She turned around, looking over her shoulder.
'No, no one there'. She knew someone was watching her, so as she came to a corner, she quickly looked back.
"What the…!" Katelyn began because when she looked back, she found Natasha standing there with a gang of 5 guys!
"What're you doing?" Katelyn asked them,
"These guys have all decided to teach you a few manners" Natasha replies.
"Oh really, nice plan! But you're making a bad mistake doing that!" Katelyn said, looking rather confident
"Just learn…" Natasha said looking annoyed now.
"All right, go a head teaching!" Katelyn drops her bag.
"Go on boys…" Natasha says this and the 5 guys charge in towards Katelyn.
Number 1 (Don't know their names!) charge up 1st to throw a punch at Katelyn, but she just moves out of the way without the slightest hesitation, only moving about 5cm to get out of the way. Number 2 comes to kick her around the middle, Katelyn jumps in time, flips in mid air, and axe kicks the guy as she came down. Number 2 drops down on the ground, moaning in pain slightly. Number 3 charges to tackle Katelyn. Katelyn jumps over him, and lands right next to number 4.
"Hi!" Katelyn said, and that would be the last thing number 4 would remember because Katelyn grabbed his hand and hit the base of the neck as she pulled on the arm, and he hasn't risen after that blow. She back kicks number 3 around the middle and he falls down completely winded. She round kicks number 5 around the neck and he falls down (K.O). Number 1 punches and punches at Katelyn, but she either moved to the side, or weaved under to get out of the way. She seemed to know what number 1 was going to do and where he would aim. It looked like Katelyn was reading a book! And finally 'WHACK' she kicks number 1 around his neck and he faints. Natasha stood the whole time in her same spot, her mouth slowly opening wide at the sight she was seeing. Katelyn stands up properly and straightens her clothes. She stands on number 3 and reaches down to get her bag. When she got it, she turned around to Natasha.
Katelyn giggled and walks on, saying "next time, think about the poor guys that are going to be knocked out…!
As you can gather from that, Katelyn is a pretty good fighter!! She did do a bit of martial arts when she was over seas, just for 'personal protection'!
Not A Chapter!
Katelyn was in her room; thinking about what Natasha might do the next few days to get back at her. But the following 3 days, nothing happened, I mean, Natasha seemed more careful, but no fights. On the weekend, Sophie, Tom, Katelyn & Jack were supposed to go to a theme park in the nearby town…
