And now...we see Rocky go from underground new kid to well-known kid due to one new location set for the school dance that even took Rocky by surprise and even sends Lukas's jealousy to overdrive.

Chapter 10: Party Turf

During class, Rocky was busy with his history studies and got so deep into the history of Japan, he was completely unaware that some of Lukas' crew took pictures of him with his phone to use against him on their Pimpstagram pages and as Rocky was taking a couple of notes, they suddenly heard the announcer on the speakers to give them a little bit of news.

"Attention, students. We have confirmed that the school dance will not commence in our school gymnasium as of this moment because the gymnasium has extended its hockey league practicing for the next two months. However...it will be moved to a new location; on the roof of a new pizzeria place on the art hub of New York City thanks in part to Robbie Lou Zuckerburg for suggesting the idea. So the dance is gonna commence after all within a few weeks. You can all thank our new student Rocky Joel Elias Zuckerburg for making this possible for us. That is all, students." the announcer added.

Rocky paused himself during the entire announcement and he was completely shocked to hear that and some of the students immediately turned to Rocky and cheered for him that he and his father made the dance come back alive and they chanted his name, almost as if he's the popular kid now. He seemed shocked and surprised to have that happening, but he doesn't want the popularity to sum it up.

The news of that announcement gave Lukas the final straw and it's on the second day of Rocky's adjustment to a new school and is mad green with envy that the dance party should've been in the Upper East Side neighborhood of Manhattan instead of the art hub in NYC and that made him super infuriated and is willing to fight against this and take matters into his own hands.

After the bell rang, Rocky came out of the class and most of the students knew his name now and thanked him for making the party happen and most of them are looking forward to both the dance and the pizza there and Rocky became a reluctant hero within a span of 2 minutes. He walks over to his locker to get some stuff out of there as he makes his way home, but waits for April and Casey instead to meet them in his locker.

As he was waiting however...he sees a very furious Lukas charging in after him and immediately lunged at him like a fierce tiger and slams him into a locker and Lukas said, "I warned you to stay out of my social zone! And you just invaded it!"

"What is your problem, dude? I didn't get anywhere near your social zone!" Rocky exclaimed, trying to release himself off of Lukas' grip.

As soon as Rocky removes himself from this situation, Lukas wasn't gonna give up entirely as soon as he sees Rocky going outside, Lukas immediately ran after him and slowly walked up close to him, but still kept his anger in check and Rocky wasn't sure what to expect, but he knows that something's gonna pop off any minute.

"You took my social turf away from me! I should've had my party on my parents' freaking Upper East Side house! It's so much better than your little tacky house! Now you're gonna pay!" Lukas shouted.

"Dude...I ain't got time for you." Rocky said, starting to walk away.

But Lukas wasn't gonna let him go without a fight and he immediately jumped on top of him and fought him harder, kicking him in the shin to throwing him down to the ground and got punched in the face in the process and Rocky removed himself off of him and runs off, but Lukas wasn't gonna let him off easy as he shoves him down to the ground hard and proceeds to punch him and strangle him. Rocky was screaming for help and somehow...the fight drew attention to the students that saw this unfolding and Lukas was beating Rocky down relentlessly and Rocky wanted no part of this at all and got off him.

Just then, Rocky got himself out of the crowd and runs out as he heads back home on his skateboard all while Lukas was still fiercely looking for Rocky and he swore revenge against the new kid and he turns around and sees Casey coming in and he balled up his fist and started to fight Casey instead, but Casey trips him with his hockey stick and Lukas stays down.

"That's for my friend, Rich King Jerk-Butt Dude." Casey said, very serious.

During the entire thing, Casey left the crowd and heads out of the school to find where Rocky is and he calls April to come by and help find him and they couldn't help but think why Lukas would fight him. April seemed very shocked and said, "What's this guy's problem?"

"I don't know, but I think it has something to do with Rocky." April replied.

"Let's go find him." Casey answered.

Meanwhile, a very shaken and frustrated Rocky went straight back to the house and walked inside the house, obviously very furious and upset that Lukas took it this far over nothing. He knew that adjusting to a new city and a new school could be hard, but he just didn't know exactly how hard it can be and he got so mad, he just ran upstairs, walked in his room and slammed the door. With one more level of frustration, he pounded on the door to blow off some steam and then laid down on his bed to calm himself down.

"I knew that New York City was gonna cause me some problems for me." Rocky said, still fuming.

3 hours had passed and Rocky was slowly calming himself down and he just stood on the roof of the apartment house, looking at New York City and the one thing that was on his mind; he officially hates it there and would rather be in Malibu than in NYC. He releases a deep sigh and just literally feels like he's been an outsider the whole time and that he doesn't belong.

"Why did I come here in the first place? Why couldn't I had stayed in Malibu? Would've been better for everyone." Rocky said, begrudgingly.

He then heard a vibrating sound from his pocket and he reached in there to find his phone and noticed several missed calls and text messages from both April and Casey wondering where he's been and he stops himself for a minute and remembers that these two were the only friends that he's ever made since moving to New York City and he sighed heavily and responds to April's text stating that he's okay and that he needed to cool himself down.

He remains in that roof for sometime just thinking about how he's gonna get through the challenges of getting through being a new kid in New York City.

Man...so much drama going down with Rocky. He just really wants to go back to California. Next up, Rocky vents off some frustration with his journal.
