Chapter 2
As the bright sun gleamed into Theresa and Atlanta's window, birds chirped into the sky. People got up and was ready to eat breakfest. Yawning, Theresa woke up. Signing that she woke up late, Theresa headed to the bathroom to brush her teeth and make her bed.
Looking into the mirror, Theresa sighed. "Oh great! A pimple!" she yawned and leaned in to look closer. The pimple was right in the middle of her forehead. "I can't let Jay see!" she said and used tome zit cream to try to get it out. "At least I should use makeup!" Theresa grabbed some makeup and applyed it over her pimple. When it was covered, she brushed her hair and dressed into a t-shirt and shorts. "I should go jogging at the park today." she decided and headed downstairs into the kitchen. Everyone was there, eating some toast and eggs.
"Morning Theresa!" Herry said, while chewing on some toast. "Your up late today."
Theresa nodded. "I'm going for a jog at the park right now," she said and put on her headphones for her Ipod. "I'll see you later." she said heading for the door.
"Don't you want to eat breakfast before going?" Atlanta asked her. "Remember, breakfast is the most important meal each day."
Theresa shook her head. "No thank you," she said.
Jay stopped her. "Wait! I'm a come with you. I haven't been in shape for a while," he said. "Wait for me!"
Theresa slowly nodded. "Okay. Hurry though!" she said as he hurried upstairs into his room. He wants to come with me..?
Atlanta smirked at Theresa. "Hey Theresa, can I talk to you for a sec?" she asked, standing up and leading Theresa into the living room.
"What is it Atlanta?" Theresa asked her. This better not be about me and Jay at the park alone is it? she wondered. I hope its not about Jay...
"Its about Jay," Atlanta said. "Let me picture it. You. Jay. At the park jogging alone? Near romantic pond? Sitting in a bench? This has to be the perfect time to tell Jay you love him! Your true feelings for him!" she said. "Than, you may hold hands and hug or kiss each other. How romantic eh Theresa?" she asked.
Theresa blushed. "No way will I tell him! I already try to tell him last night, but Odie asked Jay if he wanted to watch the movie right before I could tell Jay I love him! All of my confidence drained out of me! No way will I tell Jay how I feel about it! Its too risky! What if he doesn't have the same feelings for me back? Than everything will be ruined! I won't be able to talk to him anymore! We probably won't even look at each other in the eye! So no Atlanta! No way I can tell him I love him!" Theresa took a deep breath from her short speech. "Do you understand now?" Theresa looked at Atlanta to see her reaction.
Atlanta laughed. She laughed and laughed. "Everyone can tell you and Jay like each other! And besides, how do you know he doesn't like you back? Its a risk you got to take! Everyone knows that Jay likes you! Why every time were trying to save the day, and he always puts you on the same team as him? How come he always talk to you more than any of us? How come..."
"I'm done Theresa. Lets go!" Jay said. He was wearing a white t-shirt, gray shorts, and was wearing headphones over his ears. "Lets jog!" he said and waved good-bye to everyone.
Atlanta smiled and paused. "Have fun you two!" she eyed Theresa and walked back into the kitchen. Neil looked over at Atlanta."What were you guys talking about? Me?" he asked as his fingers go smoothly went through his soft blond hair. "I'm hot aren't I?" he said smiling.
Atlanta rolled her eyes. "No, I just needed to ask her something. Nothing really." she said and began to bite on a piece of toast. I hope Theresa makes the move! Atlanta wondered.
"C'mon Theresa! Hurry up! Are you tired already?" Jay laughed. So far, Jay was ahead of Theresa. Already, she looked tired. "You can do better!" he called behind her. Theresa was seemed to be slowing down a bit behind. Jay turned around to find her stopping. "Are you tired?" Jay asked and he stopped jogging. He walked towards her. "Hey Theresa." Jay said.
Theresa took a deep breath. She wasn't tired at all. She thinking about what Atlanta meant when she said that everyone knew that Jay liked her. Is it true? Does Jay really like me? What if he really doesn't? Theresa asked herself.
"You ok? You look worried." he asked her, looking up at her bright emerald eyes. Wow...her eyes...Jay shaked his head. Stop thinking about her eyes! "You alright?" he asked again. "Want to take a rest?"
Theresa slowly nodded. "OK..." she said and both of them sat down onto a bench. They didn't see anyone around them, and had seen that it was still quite early. Theresa nervously looked over at Jay. He turned around and smiled at her.
"Everyone can tell you and Jay like each other! And besides, how do you know he doesn't like you back? Its a risk you got to take! Why every time were trying to save the day, and he always puts you on the same team as him? How come he talks to you more than any of us? How come..." Atlanta's voice repeated in her head. "Let me picture it! You. Jay. At the park jogging. Near romantic pond? Sitting in a bench? This has to be the perfect time to tell Jay you love him! Your true feelings for him! Than, you may hold hands and hug and kiss each other! How romantic, eh Theresa?"
"Get away from my head Atlanta! Stop talking to me!" Theresa muttered under her breath. "Just tell Jay you love him!" She turned around to see Jay. He was looking over at the pond. Maybe this is the time to tell him! C'mon Theresa! You could do it! "Umm...Jay...Can I tell you something..." she said slowly.
Jay stopped looking at the pond and over at Theresa. "Yeah. What's up?" he asked her.
"Well um..." Theresa nervously whispered.
Through the mirror, Cronus once again watched Jay and Theresa jog into the park. He smirked. Two of his giants walked behind him. "Go and attack Jay and Theresa. Bring Theresa to be, unharmed. Do I have myself clear?" he asked them.
Both of them nodded and headed off the the park as quickly as they could. Both of them didn't want to risk Cronus angry at them, yet once again if they fail this mission. Besides, its a young teen. What can she do harm?
Laughing, Cronus had a plan himself. Opening up a portal, he stepped inside laughing. In thin air, his two golden scythes appeared into his hands. Stepping in, he disappeared.
"Umm...well..." Theresa repeated. How am I supposed to tell him this? "I love you?" What should I say! If only Atlanta was here with me right now! She would know what to do at problems like this!
Jay slowly nodded. "You can tell me! If its something that concerns me, I won't laugh or run away ok?" he laughed. "I promise."
Theresa giggled. "Promise you won't laugh or run away?" she asked. "You better be good at keeping promises!" she said. This is the moment! Its either now or never!
Jay nodded. "I'll keep the promise. And I won't tell anyone either. I promise!" he said.
Theresa tickled him. "Okay...but please don't freak out okay?" I sure hope he doesn't...Jay is a really trust-worthy person...but I still don't know..
He laughed. "I promise I won't freak! Just tell me what you want to tell me!" Jay was quite curious what Theresa wanted to tell him.
Theresa took a deep breath. "Well...Jay...Ever since I've met you, I always wanted to tell you this. Your one of the bestest friends I've ever had." She said looking down at the ground. "Well...Jay...I..."
But before she could finish her sentence, large, dirty, huge arms reached out and grabbed her before she could say another word. "Jay!!!! Help me!!" she cried.
Jay turned around. "Theresa!" he cried and jumped up, running after the kidnapper. "Let go of Theresa!" he cried. Theresa!! Don't worry! I'll save you!
"Let go of me!!" Theresa shouted at Cronus' giant. She was held over his shoulder. "I said let go of me!" she struggled.
The giant laughed. Mission complete! And it was quite easy. Quite easy indeed. The other giant was after jay, to distract him.
"Theresa!!! I'm coming! Don't worry! I'll save you! I promise!" Jay called out. But, someone grabbed onto his ankle, and he was thrown to the ground. Looking behind, it was one of Cronus' giants.
Jay took out his xiphos and was ready to probably stab the giant with it. He cut the giant's arm. Cronus' giant cryed out in pain and left go of Jay's ankle. Standing up, Jay began running towards the direction of where the giant with Theresa on his shoulder was heading.
Theresa angrily hit the giant's back with her fists. "Jay!!! Where are you?" she called out. "Please help me! I can't do anything!"
Jay heard Theresa's cry of help. "Don't worry! I'll help you!" he cried back at her. When he got near them, Jay threw his xiphos at the giant's back. The giant dropped Theresa and fell to the ground in pain. He kept his hand over his wound.
Theresa's body smashed against a tree. She had hit her head badly, and began to grow dizzy. My head hurts so...she closed her eyes and seemed to drifted off.
Jay noticed that Theresa wasn't moving. "Theresa!" he cried and began running to her. Before he could get any closer to her, red light beamed and hit his arms. Falling to the ground, Jay looked over to see who it was who had just shot him.
A tall man appeared behind the trees. It was Cronus. Their sworn enemy. The great God of time.
Laughing, Cronus' eyes turned red. "We meet again Jay."
Jay frowned. "What do you want now Cronus? What is it now you want to take away?" he demanded.
Smiling, Cronus smirked. "I only want only one thing. I want Theresa." he said.
Theresa? Why would he want Theresa? What is he planning to do with her...? Jay thought.
To be continued...
Hi everyone! Its me again! Finally updated! Its been a few days. I think I have rushed it a bit too while trying to kidnap Cronus. I think that in Chapter 3, I would probably make the entire chapter of them fighting. Oh well, most of it.
I feel so sad for Theresa, being hurt and all. But, she's going to be suffering why more while under the control of Cronus...
Well, this is chapter 2! Please R&R, and also give me and suggestions of possible!
I tried to make the characters has canon as possible. I'm trying my best.
Anyway, I'll hope to see you all in chapter 3! And remember, to keep on reading!
