I do not own Cars, or it's characters, it all belongs to Disney/Pixar. I only own my OCs.

Enjoy!

"Do you all know why you're in here?" Mr. Flynn asked them all in a strict tone.

Siddeley held the ice pack closer to his eye to avoid the glares that Jason and his friends were giving him.

"Yeah, because this twit punched Siddeley." Chloe said calmly.

"Miss E-" Mr. Flynn started but was interrupted when Chloe cleared her throat loudly getting his attention.

They both exchanged glances before Chloe sighed in defeat and took her feet off his desk.

Jason and his friends looked at each other in confusion. Finn just stared at Chloe, she glanced at him and rolled her eyes.

Okay, what's going on here? Siddeley thought to himself.

"Right, like I was saying..." Mr. Flynn continued, "Chloe, what have we talked about cursing?"

"Not to do it in public." She said rolling her eyes,

"And?"

"It's not good, it's rude, impolite and..." She mumbled the last part angrily.

"What was that?"

Chloe mumbled again.

"Say it out loud." Mr. Flynn demanded.

"It's not lady-like! There, I said it!" Chloe said earning snickers from Arabella and Lydia. Even Finn smirked, but his face quickly went back to emotionless.

"Exactly, now for your punishment." He said typing in his computer, "Two weeks detention, everyday after school and during lunch for a total of three hours."

"What?! But that's like thirty hours of detention! How the fu-"

Mr. Flynn gave her a stern look before she continued.

"Fudge! How the fudge do I get detention that long for swearing?! I was just trying to help the newbie! But Jason punched him in the eye!"

"No I didn't!" Jason shouted.

"Liar!"

"Snitch!"

"Moron!"

"Idiot!"

"Jerk!"

"Loner!" Jason said with a smirk.

Chloe growled and lunged at Jason, punching him in the face. Mr. Flynn quickly got up and tried to break them up.

"Chloe! Get off him!" He shouted,

"He's such a faker! He can easily fight back but he's not! He's trying to get me in trouble! Jerk!" Chloe screamed.

Lydia got out her phone and started taking pictures while Arabella looked as like she was recording the whole thing. Siddeley just sat there and watched the whole thing happen. He looked at Finn who just raised an eyebrow at him as if he was testing Siddeley.

Why isn't he doing anything?! Siddeley thought-panicked.

Finn saw his panicked look and mouthed, 'What are you going to do about this?'

'Me?!' Siddeley mouthed back.

Finn nodded and continued to watch what was happening. Siddeley glanced at Aiden who looked horrified at the scene in front of him.

Why can't he do anything about this?!

Then Aiden passed out from hyperventilating too much.

Never mind. He mentally face palmed himself. I guess it's just me then! Finn is doing... whatever, Aiden just fainted and those two girls are busy being... well, girls. Okay, Siddeley, you can risk getting hurt again, right?

"Chloe?" Siddeley whispered.

Chloe was slapping Jason across the face, while Mr. Flynn was trying to pry her off him, but Jason was kicking his legs too much in efforts to get her off himself.

"Chloe!" Siddeley said a bit louder, but his voice was muffled by the screams and arguing voices.

"CHLOE!" Siddeley shouted very loudly. "STOP IT!"

Everyone stopped what they were doing. Chloe stopped beating up Jason, so he stopped thrashing. Arabella and Lydia quickly hid their phones away from Mr. Flynn. Aiden woke up and looked around confused as to why everyone had stopped.

"Chloe," Siddeley said again but more calmly, "Just stop."

"Why?!" Chloe shouted back, "Why shouldn't I beat the living crap of this moron?! He made my life a living hell! He still does! Why shouldn't I hurt him the way he hurt me?! He ruined my life! Tell me why Siddeley! Why?!"

He was shocked by her response, but shook his head and continued.

"Because you're better than him. Don't stoop down to his level." He told her.

Chloe got up and glared at him, "You sound just like my father." She growled, "I hate my father. He put me in this stupid academy, and for what? All I wanted was for him to spend time with me, but no! He doesn't have the time of day!"

Siddeley clenched his hands into fists. That was the exact same story that he experienced. That's... She's like me... Except...

"You're lucky..." He said darkly.

"What...?"

"AT LEAST YOU FATHER THAT IS STILL ALIVE! AT LEAST HE'S STILL AROUND TO LOVE YOU! YOU CAN COMPLAIN ALL YOU WANT, BUT GUESS WHAT! OTHER CHILDREN MAY NOT EVEN HAVE PARENTS! YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL!" Siddeley shouted,

"Why do you even care? You're just the newbie." She said quietly.

"BECAUSE MY FATHER DIED, THAT'S WHY! BECAUSE I WANT TO HELP YOU!" Siddeley screamed, then lowered his voice. "Because you need a friend."

Everyone was silent. Chloe looked down at her feet and glared.

"Look I know what you're going through, and I just want to tell you that I'm here for you. You're not alone." Siddeley said gently.

Chloe's head shot up, she gave Siddeley a death glare and stomped up to him until they were face to face.

"You don't know ANYTHING about me, so stop pretending like you know what I'm feeling."

"How do you expect to get friends when all you do is shut people out? Don't you realize that some people want to help you?"

"I don't need anyone's help." Chloe said and marched over to the door. "And I DON'T. NEED. YOU!"

With that she slammed the door on her way out.

"The rest of you get a week of detention for getting involved in this little incident." Mr. Flynn said quietly, "You are dismissed."

Everyone left without saying another word.

"Siddeley, I'd like to have a word with you."

Siddeley glared at Finn as he passed by him. Finn just gave him a sympathetic look and walked out the door.

"Sit."

Siddeley did as he was told and down at the same seat.

"Siddeley... You are one of the few to ever stand up to Chloe like that."

"Yeah, and?"

"I'd like you to keep an eye on her. Help her like you said you would. I saw it in her eyes, she actually opened up to you. Although it's hard to believe and she would never admit it... She cares about you."

"W-what? How do you know?"

"Chloe's never spoken to anyone about her father before. She has never told anyone about who he is, what he does... and her past... The reason why she's here at the academy..." Mr. Flynn explained,

"But Chloe told me that some of the students were here because of their parents, or because they have some special skill that's useful to CHROME."

"And very few like Chloe hide their pasts... you are one of the few Siddeley."

"I just don't want them to know... how will they treat me if they knew who my father was?"

Mr. Flynn chuckled.

"What?"

"You and Chloe are more alike than you think." He said.

A thought crossed Siddeley's mind, "Ew! But she's a girl!"

"Hmm... quite right. After all, us men have the upper-hand! We are stronger and smarter!" Mr. Flynn said proudly. "Anyway, do you think you can do that for me, Siddeley? Try to get through to her."

Siddeley hesitated a bit.

Okay, so Chloe is stubborn and hard-headed. She doesn't follow the rules and she curses... a lot. But... she doesn't have any friends and her past and family are a mystery. Ehh, what have I got to lose? Siddeley thought.

Your self dignity.

Shut up!

Make me!

I'll slap you!

You can't slap yourself!

Oh yeah? Watch me!

The next thing Siddeley knew, his cheek was bright red and it was stinging with pain.

"Did you just slap yourself?" Mr. Flynn asked.

She needs a friend, someone to depend on, someone to trust! No one's willing to do that, so why not? I mean, she trusts me already and we just met today! Siddeley sighed and made up his mind.

"I'll do it."
