Tommy was running through the morning fog the day after his ski trip. He had pretended, for his friend's sake, that it has been successful. Tommy knew better, though, it still hurt and he doubted that the pain would ever go away. As he was turning the corner he slowed down when he saw the lights on in the youth center. Tommy made sure no one was looking and went up to the doors. To his surprise they were unlock; Tommy snuck in to get to the bottom of the mystery. Tommy caught the culprit when he snuck to the juice bar. Behind the counter, making something was Sam and she was singing softly to herself. Tommy dared to sneak a little closer to hear the words.
What am I supposed to do
With all these blues
Haunting me, everywhere, no matter what I do
Watching the candle flicker out in the evening glow
I cant let go
When will this night be over
I didn't mean to fall in love with you
And baby there's a name for what you put me through
It isn't love, it's robbery
I'm sleeping with the ghost of you and me.
Before she could get any farther Tommy came out of hiding and said, "Did you write that song?" The cup that Sam had been holding dropped to the floor as she heard his voice. "Whoa Tommy you scared me."
"Sorry I saw the lights and wondered who would be up this early."
"Oh Well I'm opening for Ernie; giving him a chance to sleep in with his wife for once."
"Ernie's married?"
"Yeah for a long time now."
"I never knew that. How did you find out?"
"Um, the wedding band on his ring finger was a dead give away."
"Are you married then?"
"What? No, whatever gave you that idea?"
"The ring on your ring finger."
"Oh, no this is my boyfriends' class ring. He gave it to me when we first started dating."
"So did u write that song?"
"Ghost of you and me? No it's an old song, um, by BBmak I think."
"Never heard of them."
"No I got a lot into my mom's old music when I was little."
"So what are you making?"
"Oh breakfast pizza."
"Come again?"
"Breakfast Pizza; just take bread dough, put it in a pizza pan, add cheese, bake, and then add stuff like eggs, bacon, ham, sausage, and stuff like that."
"Wow, sounds good."
"Oh it is, here try a piece."
Sam handed Tommy a piece and when he tasted it he felt like he was in heaven.
"This is really good."
"Thanks, it was my mom's recipe."
"Well I had better finish my run. See ya at school later?"
"Yeah, bye Tommy."
Tommy walked out into the fog and continued his run. His mind, unfortunately found its way back to Kim.
It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and Kat was getting out of her Mustang. Just as she was about to go in she saw Sam come out. Kat hid behind her car, since Sam had threatened her, Kat was keeping a close eye on the girl. She watched as she came up to a car. Then she looked around to make sure no one was watching. Kat then saw her take her middle and pointer fingers, put them together, and slowly motion something up. Sam then motioned them to open the door. Kat almost gasped when she saw that Sam's hand never touched the handle. When Sam drove past her Kat got back into her car and followed Sam around town. Sam first stopped at a convenient store. Before Kat could get in she heard screams, smoke, and Sam come running out the doors. She then followed Sam to the bank where she heard a small explosion. After that she followed Sam back to the youth center. Once Kat was sure Sam wasn't there she got out to go tell her friends the news.
"Oh my God, you will never guess what I saw Sam just do?"
"What Kat?" Tommy said as he stopped his workout
"Yes Kat what did you see me do?"
Kat stopped in her tracks as she heard Sam's voice from behind her back.
"Here are your guy's drinks. Now what is that I did Kat?"
"I saw you steal a car, rob a convenient store and a bank."
"What I would never do that."
"Then explain how you got into the car without the keys."
"Um I unlocked it, opened the door, and got in; I had the keys."
"Whose car was it?"
"Ernie's; he asked me to run an errand."
"Oh really what was that exactly?"
"Drop the salary checks off at the bank."
"Then why did you go to the convenient store?"
"I thought I would be nice and fill his tank up, he was running low."
Kat stood there at a loss of words. Somehow the little weasel had thought up a lie for every question.
"Hey Kat what do you have against Sam?"
"Nothing Tommy."
As her friends left Sam came up to Kat and said,
"Next time you want to accuse me of something make sure you have your facts straight."
"I will find out what you're hiding. I'm not going to let you hurt my friends."
"The only person I want to hurt is you, but count your lucky stars because I promised a very good friend that I wouldn't, much. Watch your back tramp."
Kat watched as Sam walked away to take more orders. She needed to get to the bottom of this and fast.
Meanwhile up in his palace Mondo was watching Sam with renewed interest. He had plans for the girl because he had already seen what she could do. His ultimate plan was to turn her evil, but if that didn't work he could always hold her hostage and use her against the Rangers. Mondo lay in sleep mode fine tuning his plan and marveling at his own evil genius.
