Chapter 3
Zara

"Oww... my head!" Zara whined, rubbing her head recurrently as she brushed herself up. She looked around, examining her surroundings.

"What the-" she was cut off under her breath as soon as the location caught her attention – she was in the middle of an empty outspreading meadow. There was nothing else but her alone.

"Ash? Danny?" she waited, nothing else but only the sounds of gusting wind and the rattling of her multi-coloured beaded bangles were heard.

Where am I...? Putting her hands on her waist, still observing her unknown milieu, she stretched her neck to look up;

I'm still seeing the sky, so I must be on the same planet. She sighed in defeat, having no clue or whatsoever. Zara started walking rapidly toward the open space while still looking around her, in case if she sensed any movement on the way to find a reason to halt.

However after about ten minutes of aimless and continuous fast-paced walking, Zara finally found a reason to stop on her tracks. She squealed excitedly without any warning and bounced around with her fists holding in her joyous excitement.

In her wake, was no other than a big white abode finished with crimson roofing – a home with rich Chinese architecture. The lush, green lawns symbolised signs of life with well maintained thickets as an inside fence, but Zara already knew what she was encountering.

She fixed her blown messy hair resulted from some of the fierce winds during her walk and gradually walked toward the red gates. Since nothing came chasing her off, she decided to enter the home – intruding the seemingly peaceful house.

She stepped onto the porch, in front of the main door, which had two plant holders on either side of the door ends. She held up her fist, with her bangles sliding down her arm clanking onto each other and stopping just before her elbow. Holding up her fist on the air, she came to a halt when a fraudulent idea came to her mind.

Instead of knocking, she lowered her hand and deliberately reached for the door knob. Slowly the door screeched as she push it opened, revealing a space with luxurious furniture, but the place was rather subtle and unobtrusive. It's quiet and undisturbed atmosphere portrayed no signs of life, contrasting with the exteriors of the house.

Zara took a small step in, still holding the doorknob and one foot outside on the porch – lest there was an alarm installed or someone who saw her. But after what seemed minutes of peeping motionlessly, she decided it was time to explore the wonted place she had seen before for quite awhile.

She passed numerous Chinese artefacts and expensive looking furniture, but still no one was in sight. Zara wasn't surprised, because she knew the place very well and the image of it had been lingering in her mind in her last years of high school. Passing through motionless hallways, she finally reached a door that seemed to lead to the basement. Hearing resonant sounds from behind the door, Zara leaned forward and pressed her ears gently against the metal door, feeling the cold temperature of it. She pressed her ears slightly harder, to receive a clearer sound frequency.

"Jackbot, get me my safety glasses!" A commanding voice pierced through the heavy sounds of machinery. At hearing this, Zara's smile had never been wider as ever. Without further hesitation, she burst the metal door open, followed by an exciting and overwhelming shriek as she saw a pale redheaded boy in a black trench coat with yellow goggles on his head, and the place – a lab.

Instead of scolding the intruder for of course, intruding, the boy shrilled in fright – harmonising with Zara's shriek of excitement. He curled himself up into a defensive ball form, only revealing up his head to scream. The lab somehow descended into a tone deaf opera show.

Unfortunately, after Zara had stopped being exhilarated, the boy was still shrilling in fear, shattering every thin glass piece in the lab, and even impaired some of his Jackbots into retarded-looking robots.

"Stop, stop, STOP!" Zara demanded several times after almost having her eardrums bursting out because of the penetrating shrill. Zara carefully walked toward the boy – being cautious enough not to step on the jagged shards.

"What do you want? Please don't hurt me!" They boy yelled, begging helplessly as if there was no tomorrow left for him.

"Calm down!" Zara insisted as she was enormously exasperated by the shrilling of the boy. Apparently, the boy seemed to be whimpering after Zara had raised her voice at him.

Zara sighed in relief, and her relieved expression abruptly changed into a bright, cheerful countenance. "Oh my gosh! It's Jack Spicer! Ahhhhh!" The fan girl hailed lively with her hands clenched into fists; holding in her excitement of just hugging the boy until he suffocates and also to prevent him from dying out of breath.

"Wait, what? You're not gonna eat me or something?" Jack said, utterly shocked by the girl's reaction. He finally showed a sign of opening and unwrapped himself from his feeblish position.

Zara commenced a slight chuckle at the boy's foolish assumptions. "No silly!" I'm a fan of you, not a cannibalistic person."

Jack stared at her, wide-eyed as he stood up – wiping his 'watery' eyes and brushing his trench coat while straightening himself up at last. "Ar- are you serious?" he stammered in disbelieve.

"Yes, of course! You're like the most awesome of the awesomeness! And I REALLY admire you." Zara stated with an immense smile. She skipped around the large rectangle table in the middle of the lab, while enjoying every angle of her sight, including a really flattered Jack who was grinning smugly to himself.

"So umm...what brings a hot chick like you down here?" he questioned, smugly fiddling with his goggles.

"I was sucked into this big silver hole I think. Then...I woke up at a meadow, and now...I'm here!" Zara jumped up, clapping her hands as she said the last two words joyfully. Her colourful bangles and yellow beaded necklace made clanking noises as she swirlingly leaped about.

"Uh...yeah." Jack said confusedly, but he ignored the puzzlement that was clouding his little mind. In a sudden, Jack's watch beeped vigorously, an alarm if a Shen Gong Wu had revealed itself. He shifted subtly into his Drillbot – afraid if the others would get there first – and fastened his seatbelt. "Aren't you coming?"

"Of course!" she yelled cheerfully even though she hadn't known where he was going but had aside her negative thoughts for her trustworthy of Jack Spicer. What would a fangirl not do anyway? She jumped into the passenger seat of the Drillbot which was next to Jack and fastened her seatbelt. Before Jack could even start the engine, her hands were already fiddling with the controllers of the vehicle.

"We have a Shen Gong Wu to catch." Jack exclaimed and pushed the button that instantly covers the top of the Drillbot. "Ready to ride, baby?" he said as he turned to look at Zara who seemed to be awfully delighted at the word 'baby'.

"Hell yes! And Jack, can I ask you a favour?" Zara snapped out of excitement, grinning with her question.

Jack waited a few moments before answering her, "What is it?" his voice was cautiously suspicious, as he pressed a button on a small remote that opened his garage ingress.

"Can you umm...can you be my boyfriend?" she said the last word with her smile ever so widening, as if it was already an acknowledged question.

"Sounds like a statement more than a favour to me – Of course! I always wanted one...but the last girl I asked out ran away when she first saw me." Jack said casually while Zara squealed, extremely frenzied by the endorsement. It was like a dream come true for Zara, only far more well. She had always dreamt to be Jack's company but it had never come to the here and now – until today of course. And with that, Jack's unnecessary Drillbot made its way out of the lab and dug into the garden grounds.

Ah, a classic 'Jack fan-girl' that Zara is :) It's time for reviewing please...
