Well guys since that has been taken care of I hope you like Chapter 11 ! )

Kim's P.O.V

That night I just stayed awake and thought of every moment of this competition. The good, and bad, mostly bad, but besides that I felt really bad for Alex. I'm in the exact situation and it really hurts a person. I also felt bad for the rest of the gang, they have had to put up with our drama this whole time and they were probably so fed up with all of us right now. Or maybe it's just me and I'm hurting. I really want to find out.

I felt so bad I can't even describe the feeling. We were the best group of friends until I decided to bring romance into it. It's all my fault. It's all my fault. It's all my fault.

I kept repeating that to myself until I fell asleep.

The Next Morning, Kim's P.O.V

I don't know how long I had been sleeping but I only slept about five hours. I woke up without a sound around me and saw that it was around 5:30 AM and decided to go swing for a bit. It helped me calm my nerves the previous time, so it might be able to help me now. I rubbed my eyes and grabbed a pair of shoes, quietly making my way down the stairs. Instead of going past Rudy's room, I go out the back door, making less noise. I jump the fence and walk over to the playground, greeted by someone on the other swing. I was about to turn around and leave when their head snapped up and I saw Alex.

I stopped and then walked over to the other swing and sat beside of him.

"Can't sleep? "He asked. I shook my head. He hung his head back down and I done the same.

"We can't go on like this." He said.

"I know….but what can we do? If Jack and Cassie like each other then they obviously like each other and we should give it a chance , but I don't know. It's just a bad situation all the way around." I said. He nodded and sighed.

"You know Kim, I probably sound like a really bad person for saying this, but sometimes I feel like life would be a lot easier if I had never met Cassie" he said and gripped the chains on the swing, his knuckles turning snow white. I would have agreed with his statement but I was thinking the exact same thing last night, so why would I confront him when I had the same thoughts.

"Well I would say that you would be a bad person , but I had thought the same exact thing last night. We could leave the competition. Drop out of karate, and not look back at this mess….but that would only create more problems rather than make them disappear" I said.

"We could go through with it, we need to make a pact. Even if we're tired of being here and want to just leave and never look back or just forget about Jack or Cassie…we need to be in this together. If 'you go I go' type thing?" He said.

To me that actually sounded like a good idea, I mean…who else do I have? Rudy isn't really any help, Milton and Eddie are tied along with Jerry and Jack, and Jerry would be awkward around since he likes me and Jack is just out of the picture entirely. I mean, he is the reason I'm out on a swing at 5:30 in the morning I might as well have someone to count on.

"Deal" I said shaking his outstretched hand. We then just sat on the swings for god knows how long and just talked about Jack and Cassie. His friendship was basically the exact same relationship Jack and I had. He was going to ask her out yesterday but then she told him she was interested in Jack, and then gave him her number and they haven't spoken to each other since.

It was hurting him really bad, I could just see it in his eyes. So I started talking about school and we both loved the same things, music, TV shows, movies...he even had more in common with me than Jack..and that is saying something. Opposites attract but I haven't even thought about it in that type of way. Before I knew it we were talking about Bobby Wasabi movies, our conversation about Jack and Cassie way behind us.

Jack's P.O.V.

I woke up to the sound of someone shutting the door. I thought it was just Rudy getting the paper but when I saw that it was 5:30 AM I started getting a little bit worried. I slowly got out of bed and went to everyone's rooms, checking to see if they were awake. Milton, Eddie , and Jerry were all asleep on the couch in the living room. They must've watched movies all last night. Rudy was fast asleep so that means...Kim must have went out. I checked her room to be sure. Proving my thoughts right she wasn't asleep and I saw a muddy trail leading it's way to the back door. I looked out of the window to see her across the street on the swings with someone sitting beside of her.

Was that? No, she wouldn't talk to him. He looked up at me and looked back at her and nudged and she just shrugged and went back to talking. So she was sneaking around, talking to Alex. How could she do that to us? Especially me?!

Well how could you break her heart in front of all of her friends and not listen to a word she says, stop talking to your best friend for liking her, take some girls phone number that you don't even know, and then you get mad when she talks to Alex?!

Sometimes, I hate my mind, but this time , I have to agree. Maybe I need to just talk to her, maybe I can sort things might even be able to get back together, and if we don't we can still go back to being just friends.

I turned on my heel and went back to bed, and went back to sleep, needing all of it that I can get if I'm ready to ask Kim Crawford for forgiveness.

Kim's P.O.V

Alex nudged me and told me that Jack was watching us through the window so I glanced over, saw him with his gaze locked on me. As much as I wanted to go talk to him I stayed strong and kept talking. I just shrugged and kept talking to Alex, trying my best to forget him. We basically ranted about how stupid we thought we were and how we should be able to get over them really quick.

"What am I gonna do about Jerry?"I ask. I explained the "Jerry vs Jack" thing to Alex and he sighed.

"The only thing you really can do is to just talk to him about it. You can't fix this any other talk to him and try to help him go along with this crush he has."Alex says.

"I just wish it was that easy."I said, looking up at the starless sky. The sun started rising and I decided to go back to the cabin. I told Alex goodbye and went back into the cabin, expecting a run in with Jack but was surprised to find Jerry standing by the door, arms crossed.

"Hi Jerry"I said, ready to talk to him. He just raised an eyebrow to the door and I understood that he was referring to Alex. I rolled my eyes and groaned.

"What about him Jerry? The fact that I was talking to him? He isn't like he was a few weeks ago. He has changed! I swear, you're starting to act like Jack" I regretted that last sentence the second it came out of my mouth.

"Well I'm sorry that I actually care about you Kim!" He said, raising his voice.

"Jerry wait- I-"

"Save it Kim, save it for the next guy who actually cares about seeing you hurt" and with that said, he darted up the stairs, slamming his door behind him. I sighed, running my hand through my hair.

Why do I have to mess everything up? Well, I shouldn't bother him right now, that would only make matters worse than they already are, but can they get much worse?

I just went into the kitchen and got a bottle of water, sitting at the table in silence. I drank my water and just sat at the table, trying to think of a way to fix was all my fault, Jack won't talk to me, and now Jerry hates me. After I finished my water I just threw the bottle away, and sat back down at the table. I really needed to think this through. I rubbed my temple and sighed, wishing and praying for an idea of how to fix this mess.

"Hi Kim" Rudy yawned, walking into the kitchen, in pajama pants and a robe. I shook my head, same old Rudy.

"Hi Rudy"I sighed, staying in the 'thinking' position I had been in.

"What's wrong?"he asked, pouring a bowl of cereal and grabbing the milk from the fridge.

"Jack. Jerry. This competition. Everything. " I said. He poured the milk and sat down beside of me.

"Would it help to tak to someone about it?" He asked. I took my hands off of my face, and nodded.

"It's just too much, I feel like I broke up the Wasabi Warriors. I really feel like it is all my fault. I was talking to Alex and Jerry went off on me. Now Jack and Jerry are mad at me , and each other, and I'm caught in the middle...and I have no clue on what to do" I said.

"Well Kim, I can tell you anything in the world on what to do, but no one can tell you how to fix this...than you can. This is not your fault, but it's your situation...and you're the only person that can fix that. I can do a lot of things, like get the group together in a room and try to be a Dr. Phil parody all I can...but that is not going to fix it. You need to fix this" he said and left the room to go watch some TV.

Since the only thing we had to was go to the debate tonight, I went back to bed, shut the door, turned the lights off, and went back to sleep. I kept waking up with nightmares and the sound of doors shutting every now and then because of everyone else waking up. I put in my iPod headphones and drained my sorrows in music.

I eventually fell asleep and had a nightmare about Jerry and Jack both leaving me and the whole group splitting up and blaming me. I woke up with sweat running down my face and tears in my eyes. I have to do something to fix this! I can't let the whole group split up because of my wrongs.

I got out of bed and showered and got ready for today. I made sure everyone was in the kitchen when I burst into the room. Everyone went dead silent when I walked into the room and just looked at me strangely.

"I'm sorry!" I say bluntly, directing to Jerry, he raised an eyebrow.

"For what?" He asked.

"For making it seem like I was talking to him in a bad way or anything. We were just talking, I'm sorry it may have seemed that way, but it really wasn't" I say and look at Jack.

"Jack I'm really wasn't the way it seemed...but I'm kind of upset that you believed a magazine before you heard what I had to say" I answered truthfully. Jack stood up and walked over to me.

"Well what if you were in te exact same situation? Who would you believe?" He asked, crossing his arms.

"You! Of course I would believe you without a second thought to it!"I yelled back, not wanting to fight, but I was not about to let him stomp over me.

"Whatever, you aren't going to get anywhere with this. We aren't going to get anywhere with this" He said and realization dawned on him. Finally, we're getting somewhere with moving on.

"You know what...why don't we just start back to the way things were when we were all best friends?" Jerry asked, my smile faded at what he was getting at.

"Yeah, that would be great" I said with a fake smile plastered on my face. We all hugged on it and left back to our daily lives. I went back to my room and shut the door. Well at least we're all friends again, but at the same time I was hoping Jack would want to get back together...but oh well, I lived without being with him before, I can live now. I'm free! Free to flirt!...yeah that last one isn't happening, but it was good to think about that option.

I was dancing around my room and listening to music when I realized that it was time to go to the debate, good lord! I must have been dancing for hours! I stumbled across the room getting ready. After I got ready to leave I ran down the stairs and knocked down Jack and I in the process.

"Ow! God Kim, can I at least get down the stairs before you attempt at killing me?"he huffed, getting up. I laughed and stood up, brushing myself off.

"Sorry, so what are you holding?" I asked at the hand that was behind Jack's back.

"Oh, I was going to give Cassie a rose and ask her to go out with me" He said and my mouth formed an 'O'.

"Oh...that's cool...I hope she says yes" I say. He nods, picking a couple of thorns off of the stem.

"Well I was hoping it was going to be okay from your opinion, after we were an item... but we're just friends again so it should be okay" He said, waving it off and walking outside.

The only thing that was running through my mind was "But we're just friends" "But we're just friends" . It was haunting me as I watched him leave the room. Cassie is a really pretty girl, why wouldn't he want to go out with her?

I then realized that Alex must have heard the same thing, which leads to us talking on the swings later. Is that like our "secret place" that we go talk at, which everyone knows about, but it's secret to us?

I shook my head and went outside where everyone was already waiting in the van. Across the street Alex's team were getting ready to leave and Alex and I shared a look and I knew that he was really upset. He raised an eyebrow, as if asking me why I looked so upset and I just shrugged and nodded my head towards Jack. He nodded his head and done the same thing to Cassie.

I motioned for him to talk to me at the swings tonight and he gave me a thumbs up. I got into the van and Rudy drove us to the debate. The whole car ride was loud and funny, and I eventually gave in and began cracking jokes at the hilarious things we talked about, and everyone laughing at every single one.

When we arrived at the debate right on time and we all got into the elevator and went up to the top floor again. I was really getting used to this building, it didn't have a warm feeling to it though. It was a feeling that was very professional, and I think that we all know that the rest of the gang was anything but professional.

The door opened and we trailed into the conference room, which was already full of cameras. I sighed, not really wanting to go through this. The same woman who was getting on my nerves with my personal life was going to be the host tonight. I told Milton and I started mimicking her, and he started laughing. I was brought out of my joke by the crew shouting,

"..And we're live in 5..4...3...2..!" He said and Bobby and the woman stepped forward, holding cards in their hands, with a huge -obviously fake- smile on their faces.

"Welcome to Battle of the Dojo's I'm your host Bobby Wasabi" Bobby says.

"..And I'm Katheine Daniels, your Co-host for tonight!" she said. They both walked to the center of the stage and faced one of the tables.

"First up for the California team, Kim you and Cassie will be debating your opposite teams physical strengths and weaknesses. Kim you may go first" Katherine says. I thought for a second then answered.

"The strengths of your dojo is definitely using weapons, as for your weakness is probably sparring" I answered truthfully and Cassie gave me a weird look.

"Cassie, you're up" Katherine said. She cleared her throat and everyones eyes turned on her.

"Our weakness? Our dojo has no weakness , we are strong and independent, with no weakness. Thank you, blondie!" She snapped into the microphone and Alex spit out the water he had been drinking. I was mad now, why would she call me blondie over something as stupid as this? I was supposed to give an honest opinion, I gave it and she doesn't agree, then she was supposed to debate back, not call me blondie! I look over at Jack and see his mouth dropped.

"Umm Cassie you might not want to do that. That is Kim Crawford, you don't know who you're messing with" Jerry said into the microphone.

"Does it look like I care?" Cassie said. I looked at Alex who had his head in his hands, shaking his head. What does Jacks see in her? I mean , really? How could he like someone so mean?

I rolled my eyes, she was really asking to get knocked out on the floor. I was about to get out of this chair and teach her some respect but Milton grasped my hand and pulled me back down.

"Just forget her, she isn't worth it" Milton breathed into my ear and I tried to calm down. Sure enough, she shut up and the next couple of pairs went but my mind was focused on killing her. Where I come from, if you disrespect someone like that, you got your teeth knocked out of your mouth! Some people these days...

I must have been glaring at her for a while and then Eddie shook me out of my thoughts.

"Kim, would you stop glaring at her, your going to burn holes in her head" He joked, and I done nothing but roll my eyes.

"Are you sure your alright?"he asks, seeing straight through my happy facade.

"No not really. We all made up but I'm still angry for some things" I answered, looking down at my hands.

"It's because he likes her, isn't it?"he asked.

"That's exactly why" I answered, tears filling my eyes.

(A/N: That chapter solved nothing, they just made up...but I hoped you all liked this "Filler" chapter. I wanted to make it good for Christmas, but , oh well. I really hoped you all liked it! Review and peace!)
