Chapter 4: Breaking Dawn
Jojo and the pack decide to plan a day during the weekend to go and eat at someplace fancy to celebrate the many years that they were friends. Almost like an anniversary made for friends. Jojo looks in the phone book and sees that there is an all you can eat buffet.
"Look here you guys, there is an all you can eat buffet at Chez La plenty and its only 10.99 plus tax" Jojo says circling the number in the phone book. Mana's head pops up from the couch, as Jojo and the rest of the pack look at him, his eyes are glistening.
"Did I hear an all you can eat buffet?" Mana smiles wide.
"Yes bro you did, but just because it says it's an all you can eat buffet doesn't mean you make the place go out of business ok" Koa says, making everyone laugh but Mana, and Aaron both knew that Koa was serious about what he said.
"No really you guys, he can eat a millionaire out of his home in a matter of months" Koa says with a serious face.
"Damn really? Then where does all the food go because he is freaking skinny for eating that much" Mike says looking at Mana.
"Instead of getting angry or pissed to the point he puts his collar on he eats to contain that rage which makes him burn calories like a wild fire" Aaron says looking at Mana.
Days later the pack are outside of Chez La Plenty and notice that it looks very crowded.
"Dammit, we should have made reservations" Cody groans annoyed.
"You mean we can't eat here?" Mana says getting teary eyed.
"You're not really going to cry are you Mana?" Mike asks looking at him.
"He has a right to cry since this is the only place our mom could take us to eat if we were lucky enough to at least save $30 from our drunk dad" Koa says rubbing his brother's head which makes his tongue come out. But to their surprise one of the waiters comes out and asks them to follow him. Confused but also curious they walk in behind him and notice that there was a special place reserved for them.
"Wow what is this all about?" Pam asks excited but worried
"You see the owner of the restaurant seen what you guys did in the paper and just wanted to show his gratitude by letting you guys eat here" the waiter says handing each of them a menu.
"Dude that is so wicked" Marcus says looking through the menu.
Just then the boy from the fire yesterday comes up to them and simply smiles, the rest of the pack look at him and smile back.
"Hey what's up We remember you from the fire yesterday, how is your sister doing?" Jojo asks concerned.
"She is doing great no burns but some smoke on the lungs but she will be fine, I just wanted to thank you guys for what you did for me and my sister. So I asked my dad to save a special place for you guys" the boy says looking at them with a big grin.
"Well you know what dude we got room for one more so why don't you take a seat and kick it with us for a bit" Mana says moving down a bit so that boy could sit down.
"Thanks, don't mind if I do" A smile spreads on his face, "Wow this is so cool I never ate with older people before.
"How old are you anyway?" Pam asks looking at him
"15" says the little boy, the pack as well as the new boy begin to eat there dinner until they here a loud shattering sound. When they looked up they see this drunk guy slamming his plate on the ground cursing his lungs out. What sets the pack of is when they hear him say something about how kids messed up his plans.
The drunk who looks at the pack from afar and points at the little boy.
"YOU!" the drunk guys begins making his way towards them.
"HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE, YOU SHOULD HAVE BURNED IN THE HOUSE ALONG WITH YOUR SISTER AND OTHER PEOPLE"
Everyone begins to get worried at this guy's outburst, but not the pack. Nope they are more furious from what they heard. The guy then grabs the boy's arm and tries to yank him but Mana picks up his fork and stabs it into the guy's arm. Everyone looks at Mana wondering why he did that but when they looked he already had his choker around his neck.
*sighs* "Damn we should have fed him sooner, this is going to get really ugly" Koa says placing his palm on his forehead.
Mana gets up and walks by a window nearby and simply flips the guy off giving him the finger. Seeing this makes the guy go berserk and he rushes Mana yelling threatening things but Mana simply smiles and moves out of the way as he watches the guy break through the window and rolls down the steps laying their unconscious.
"Bastard made me stain my fork" Mana says looking at it before going back to the pack and sitting down. Finally the food comes and they all begin to eat but they look at their new buddy and begin to wonder.
"Oh dude sorry but I want to know, what's your name?"
"Oh I'm sorry I'm not a dude, my name is Dawn, I am a tom boy" Dawn says looking at them.
"Wow really, to bad I have a boyfriend already, I would so date you Dawn" Mana says looking at Jojo and smiles. Jojo just blushes a little.
"I would date you to Dawn but I have my eyes set on another prey" Aaron says jokingly looking at Pam.
"It's ok I have a girlfriend anyways so it's all good" Dawn laughs as all the friends finish eating and grab for their money but Dawn stops them.
"No no, this is on the house for what you guys did, you guys don't need to pay for anything, my dad already paid for it"
"Thank you so much dawn, hopefully we can cruise sometime"
"That would be great" Dawn says as all the friends say their good-byes and make their way back to Jojo's house, but instead of going into the house they go around back and go into their own little house. All the friends say good night as Mana and Jojo share a kiss before falling asleep on the bed Pam is already fast asleep so Aaron comes over and tucks her in kissing her forehead before going over to his own bed.
Mike and Cody turn on the stereo and plays some slow jams at a low volume just enough to fall asleep to, they set the timer for 20 minutes as they say their goodnights to their friends and falling off asleep, Koa on the other hand lays in his bed looking up at the ceiling, but before he closes his eyes he groans to himself before whispering.
"Damn it's going to be a long day tomorrow" Koa gets out of bed walking over to his brother kissing him on the forehead, as well as walking towards Aaron and doing the same thing before heading back to his bed and drifting off to sleep.
