Chapter 10: Birthday
Frankie was pissed no, BEYOND pissed, his 'brothers' his best friends told the girl he likes the date of one of the two most painful days of his life: His Birthday. He knew the date of his birthday because of an incident at the orphanage. There was a birthday celebration for another orphan and Frankie wasn't allowed to go, so instead he asked when was his birthday and the people just glared at him and told him "February 26th".When his birthday came around, he was hoping for a party too but, no one even acknowledged him or his birthday so he went to his room and cried all day. A birthday celebrates the day you were brought into the world by your parents, that is one of the reasons why this the day is so hard for him. He doesn't know his birth parents and to make matters worse back in Minnesota the people beat him even harder on this day than they normally would because his parents are 'devils' and he shouldn't have been born.
Throwing the thought aside for now, he faced the boys with a look that asked 'Which of you idiots did it' and James and Carlos raised their hands a little and he sighed. "Why did you say anything" he asked in a tone that told them not to lie.
James and Carlos looked at one another before James spoke "We were standing guard at the door so no one could walk in while Kendall and Logan were navigating you through the sewer and… well… Jo came by" James started.
Carlos spoke next "We had to tell her a cover-up story and… well your birthday was the first thing to come to mind, we're sorry" he said and they bowed their heads a little.
Frankie just pulled their heads up "Well…what's done is done I guess and since the new apartment is my gift from you guys I guess we just need to party a little and Day 1 of 2 of horrible days of my life will be over" Frankie said with fake enthusiasm at the last part and he turned his head "My birthday is in 2 weeks have fun trying to set up a party. I'm gonna sleep and try to gather some info on The Snakes" and he went to his room.
James and Carlos released the breath they were holding in "Thank God, I thought we were gonna die" Carlos said in relief and James nodded.
Logan was puzzled "Normally he ignores the subject of his birthday all together so why not now" he asked and everyone thought he had a good point. Why wasn't Frankie mad? Why isn't he just throwing the subject of his birthday away all together? Kendall came up with a possible answer
"Either he doesn't want the things Jo bought go to waste or this new info about The Snakes wanting to kill him along with Danny and Wayne-Wayne is just more important for him to deal with than his birthday issues".
Logan agreed "Probably the latter" and everyone nodded in agreement.
Katie stood up "Time to throw Frankie a party" she said pumping her fist in the air and everyone else cheered with her.
In his bedroom, Frankie let out an annoyed groan and went to sleep.
Next Day:
In the lobby, Kendall and the guys were debating on what to do about decorations for Frankie's birthday. "Alright, Mom and Katie are going to get food and drinks and Jo already got balloons so what else do we need" Kendall asked. They thought for a moment before Carlos thought of an idea
"Confetti" he said in an excited voice.
Logan looked at him confused "Why Confetti" he asked.
"It's his first real birthday celebration so why not" he told him with a big grin.
Logan shrugged and wrote it down on the notebook he had with him and Kendall's eyes brightened "I got it, how about streamers I mean you can't have a party without streamers right" he said and they gave him a funny look before Logan wrote it down.
Then they heard a voice "You guys still planning Frankie's party" and they turned to see Jo standing there. The guys waved hi and she waved hi back before Jo snatched the notebook form Logan
"Hey" he said in an annoyed voice, but Jo ignored him and looked over at what they had.
"Hmmm…not bad but you guys are still missing some stuff" she said and gave the book back to Logan who glared weakly at her.
Kendall looked at her puzzled "What are we missing then" he asked her and she looked at him like if he's stupid
"What are you missing" she asked him "How about a theme, music. Come on guys you should know this" Jo told him as if she was speaking to a 5 year old.
Kendall glared at her and she started to laugh "I'm just teasing Kendall" she said pinching his cheek, he pushed her hand off and she faced them "You guys want help or not" she asked them and they were about to say no because some things they have planned would cause Frankie's powers to be active, but Jo gave them puppy dog eyes and pouted "Please" she asked in a sweet and innocent tone and they knew they were defeated
"Okay" they said and Jo smiled at them and thanked them
"Thank you guys, thank you so much" she told them and Kendall decided to ask her an important question "Why do you want to help so bad huh Jo" he asked with a smirk on his face and Jo blushed a little
"Well…Frankie's been so nice to me and I just want to help him because I care for him" she said.
Carlos smirked too "You mean you 'LOVE' him" putting emphasis on the word love and making kissing noises and Jo flicked his nose…hard.
"OW" Carlos whined holding his nose and Jo smiled innocently
"You started it" she said in the most innocent tone they heard and James burst out laughing
"HAHAHA she got you good dude" he said pointing to Carlos and he glared back at him.
Logan held up his hands "Alright guys calm down before we start a fight here and get in trouble with Bitters" he said and Carlos pouted sitting back in his chair.
Kendall asked Jo "So what do we do now" he asked her and she smiled at him
"Well first thing you guys need are guests for the party" she said holding up 1 finger before putting up another "Second thing is more people to help set-up" and she put up a third finger "And the final thing you need is music" she finished.
Kendall looked over at the guys before they shrugged and looked at Jo "Alright then we have a couple of ideas for music and we need to find some people to help us set-up" he said.
Jo just smiled at him "Well, everyone here would be more than happy to help you guy's set-up and come to the party" she told them causing them to become confused
"Huh" they asked and Jo sighed in annoyance
"Everyone here admires Frankie for standing up to Danny and putting him in his place and I'm sure they would love to help out to repay the favor" she said and the guys were shocked. They were shocked because people besides them actually admire Frankie and that is something he always wanted, to not be hated but to be admired and respected.
Jo decided to show them what she meant "Follow me" she said and they shrugged and followed her to the pool and she motioned them to stay. "HEY" she shouted and everyone stopped what they were doing to look at her "You guys know Frankie Knight right" she asked and at the mention of his name they cheered which caused the boys to stare in awe. Jo continued her little 'rally' "Well, his birthday is in 2 weeks and his friends need help to prepare, who feels like helping them out" and once again they all cheered and the boys just smiled warmly at Jo and took a place next to her
"Okay so well do this…" Kendall started and they proceeded to plan out Frankie's birthday.
Frankie:
Meanwhile, Frankie Knight was currently staking out a couple of Snake gang members on the power lines 'Idiots, if you want to hide who you work for than don't wear your outfit that shows who you are associated with' he thought with a sigh.
He been following them for 20 minutes, hoping he can get some other useful info out of them that can maybe tell Frankie who the leader is. He stopped running on the roof he was on when he saw them walk into what appears to be an old abandoned theater 'Hmmm…what do they have in there' he thought curiously and he decided to create a diversion to get inside.
He jumped off the roof to the ground and used the energy from a nearby streetlight to make a clone of himself; he looked it over and thought to himself 'Alright now for the diversion'. He signaled the clone to go by a car and throw it with Shockwave when he gave him the signal.
The clone nodded and waited by the car for instructions and when the real Frankie was hiding behind the building next to the theater he gave the clone the signal and he sent the car flying to the door and it exploded taking the door with it.
Frankie laughed quietly to himself as a whole group of The Snakes came out and looked around for the cause of the disturbance and the clone whistled, drawing all the attention to him. He waved to them and started running with The Snakes following behind him firing bullets.
Frankie looked at them and shook his head 'Idiots' he thought and walked inside.
The inside was trashed and didn't have anything Frankie thought was worth of value inside it but he continued to look around. He checked upstairs, he checked downstairs, he checked everywhere but couldn't find anything that was important to him. He groaned and was about to leave when he saw a door he hadn't checked yet and figuring he has nothing to lose opened the door. Inside was a desk with a couple of things on it and Frankie decided to investigate what they were, he saw a map of some sorts and it looked like it showed more hideout locations on them.
'I'm so taking that' he thought as he pocketed the map and something else started to glow from within a box. Curious he opened it up and inside were a couple of shards that were glowing and a note and he decided to read it:
Dear Kessler
'Who the hell is Kessler' Frankie thought but continued to read.
I have found the remaining blast shards that were scattered around New York City after the detonation and I hope you appreciate all the hard work I put in trying to find them. You were right though; these things do have some sort of power in them that can greatly power up a conduit who touches them. I think what your doing is wrong; making this kid's life miserable and then deciding you want to kill him just because it's been too long. I don't know what you're up to but, I know this kid is a powerful conduit and he will beat you. You may be the leader of the Snakes but mark my word you will be stopped.
Sincerely yours, your ex-assistant Jaden Lopez.
Frankie was puzzled after reading the note 'So I'm some sort of conduit and the leader of these guys is a man named Kessler and these blast shards can make me more powerful, not bad for my first hideout' he thought and decided to pick up the blast shards and when he did his body absorbed the energy inside them.
Frankie was gasping for air after he absorbed the power 'Damn, I can feel the power flowing through me, looks like these things give me the ability to store more electricity' he thought with a grin and felt his clone get destroyed "I got to get out of here" he said to himself and pocketed the note and fled from the building back to the Palm Woods.
2 weeks later:
Throughout the 2 weeks the boys would prepare Frankie's party while Frankie himself, went to investigate Snake hideouts and came across a couple more blast shards. He was about to leave to go to another hideout when he got a text from Kendall that told him to come down to the pool. Deciding to listen to Kendall, Frankie went down to the pool to come across one of the biggest shocks of his life:
The pool was decorated with balloons, streamers, had food and drinks set-up everywhere and it looked like the entire Palm Woods was there.
"SURPRISE" they all shouted and Frankie was at a lost for words.
Kendall slapped him on the back "Pretty cool right" he asked looking around admiring the work that was down and Frankie looked at his brother
"This was your idea" he asked and Kendall shook his head no and pointed to Jo who was smiling at Frankie.
He walked up to her and asked "You really did all this…for me" and she nodded and he just pulled her in a big hug saying "Thank You" over and over again.
Jo blushed from the contact between her and Frankie but hugged back "It's no problem and I got you a present, Kendall said you needed this" reaching out behind the chair pulling out a blue sling pack. Frankie looked at her with awe and something only his family saw: Love
"Thank you so much Jo, this is the first real birthday party I had and you made it special" he said with tears in his eyes.
Jo was confused at what he meant but decided to ask him later "I bet I could make it more special" she said and leaned forward and gave Frankie a quick peck on the lips, he was shocked
'My…first…kiss' he thought, he and Jo were blushing like crazy
"Happy birthday Frankie" Jo said.
Carlos unleashed the confetti and shouted "TIME TO PARTY" and they all partied for hours and Frankie pushed the thought of his problems with The Snakes behind to focus on spending this day with the people he loved.
End of Chapter 10 of Big Time Destiny
*Awww* Jo kissed Frankie on the lips, what will that lead to?
Frankie found out the name of the leader of the Snakes and is now in love with Jo. He also found some blast shards that will help him to get more powerful.
What is Kessler planning to do based on the note?
