Jack's POV

So it's Tuesday afternoon, and me and the gang are at the dojo basically goofing off while Rudy loses his temper and yells at us.

"Come on guys, Chop! Chop!, the tournament is getting closer!" "You guys have to be prepared!" He sighed. "With that said Jerry I want you to spar with Kim."

Jerry grumbled. Apparently he was still ignoring her.

"Come on!" Rudy yelled.

"Alright, alright!..geez." Jerry murmured. He glared at Kim while bowing.

Before Jerry and Kim were about to spar, a blonde teen-aged guy with a really bad tan came inside the dojo.

"Zack!" Rudy, Milton, and Eddie said happily.

"Hey, what's up guys?" He greeted and slapped them high-fives.

"Just preparing for a tournament coming up." Rudy answered and turned to Jerry, Kim, and I." "Guys meet Zack. We met him yesterday at the parking lot."

"I'm Kim...hey you look familiar..you go to Seaford High, right?"

"Yeah I do, I'm a sophomore."

"Cool" Kim smiled and let out her hand. Zack grabbed it and and they both shook hands. Then they started to gaze into each other's eyes. "Has anybody ever told you how beautiful you are?"

Kim laughed nervously and blushed. I started to become furious.

Milton, Rudy, and Eddie all smirked at each other.

"You should see her in the morning Zack, she's hideous." Jerry said with a disgusted tone. I think he's implying that time we had a sleepover at Kim's place.

Kim glared at him.

"Oh and by the way, I''m Jerry."

"Jack." I said sternly.

"Nice to meet you guys." Then he turned back at Kim. "Nice to meet you Kim." he said and winked at her.

"Okay we should get back to practice. Jerry and Kim you still have to spar." Rudy reminded.

"Aw man." Jerry groaned.

"Whatever.." Kim replied.

"Okay begin!"

Jerry lunged at Kim while roaring "AHHH!". Kim stuck her leg out, which made Jerry trip and fall onto the floor.

Kim shrugged. "I win."

Rudy blinked repeatedly. "Wow..just wow."

"Well.. that was short." Milton said.

Jerry got up from the floor and dusted himself off. "I want to spar with Eddie."

Eddie shrugged. "Sure." Then they both walked across the other side of the room.

"Hey, can I spar?" Zack asked.

"You know karate?" I said lifting my eyebrows up.

"Yep. I'm a second degree black-belt." He answered.

"Hey, so is Jack." Milton replied.

"Okay let's see what you got." I said while walking towards him.

"Alright, it's Jack versus Zack!" Rudy said amazed. "Let the spar begin!"

Zack and I literally started to kill each other. He send extreme punches to my face, but I blocked them all. I'll have to admit he's pretty strong, even for me. After a few

long minutes of blocking, punching, and kicking something shocking was about to happen...

The spar was getting intense. Rudy, Milton, and Kim kept their eyes glued to Zack and I. Jerry and Eddie even started to stop sparring with each other and watch. Zack had grabbed my arm when I leaned in to punch him, and he flipped me over.

"YES, I WIN!" He shouted happily.

Rudy, Eddie, Milton, and Kim were all over him, while I tried to get off the floor. By the way did I mention that I'm in serious pain...?

"Whoa, Zack your so awesome!" Eddie said astonished.

"Yeah, you showed Jack a taste of his own medicine! ..uh no offense Jack." Jerry said.

I sighed as I finally got up. "None taken." I said while dusting myself off. "Oh and thanks for helping me up." I said sarcastically.

"Zack, you should join our dojo!" Rudy suggested happily.

"Oh I don't know..

"Come on Zack, you belong here!" Milton pleaded.

"Yeah, your amazing." Kim said and smiled at him nonstop.

"Well..okay if you insist, I'll join!" Zack said.

"Alright!" Everyone high-fived Zack, of course except for me. I"m really starting to dislike him and I've only known him for about twenty minutes.

Then Zack came toward to me. "Hey Jack you were good." He says as he shakes my hand. "But not good enough" He said with and evil grin on his face.

He let go of my hand and went back to the guys.

"Hey, we should celebrate!" Milton suggested.

"Let's go to Falafel Phil's, I'm starved." Eddie complained.

"Alright then, let's go. I'll buy!" Rudy cheered.

"WOOOOOOO!" screamed Jerry.

"Great!" Zack said with joy.

"Yeah!" Kim cheered happily and patted Zack on the back.

Then they all started to exit the dojo. Kim stopped and turned back. "Jack, you comin?"

"Nah, I'm just gonna stay here and work on some moves. You can go ahead." I told her.

Kim walked toward me. "Aw, is little Jackie sad that he lost the spar?" She teased.

I couldn't help but smile at this. "Shut up."

"Hey don't you think that Zack's karate moves were amazing?"

"Nope." I replied plainly. "I don't see why you guys like him so much, he's a showoff."

"And what are you? Your a showoff too." Kim said and crossed her arms.

"Well, only once in a while."

"You know what Jack? I think your jealous." She said and smirked at me.

"Pssh...wha? I am not!" Sigh..I really need to work on my lying skills...

"Are too!"

"Am not!"

"Are too!"

"Am not! Kim why would I be jealous of Zack? I mean that'll be silly don't you think?"

"Yeah that is silly. Ha,you don't have to lie Jack I know your jealous."

"Trust me Kim, I'm not jealous."

Kim looked directly into my eyes for a long time, while I kept on a straight face. "Do you believe that I'm not jealous now?"

"Not a chance." Kim said and smiled at me.

I sigh in frustration.

"Are you sure you don't wanna come?"

"Positive. Now go Kim, have fun." I say as I push her gently out of the dojo.

"Oh, so jealous." I hear her mumble.

I roll my eyes.
