Chapter 7 - Other Side And Departure
Soon five years have quickly past. Meg have been labeled the smartest and most popular and coolest kid in elementary school since second grade. Unlike most kids who have her type of popularity, she's an cool person and doesn't rub it in anybody's face which indeed improve her popularity. As she grows even more older, she gets more allowance by her parents, and always since she have begin school had top model clothes. Meg is literally friends with everybody, including her now best friend Ryan, who also seems to being good since his uncle gotten a business that gets a lot of money. He has an cool personality and the best thing is that Meg and Ryan's parents have met and are good friends.
They also promise to send Meg to the same middle school as Ryan because they never broke up their friendship while other kids are just Meg's ordinary friend. As the last day of school seems to near, Meg seems to be more sadder since she met so many friends as the years gone by. Around an week before the last day of school, Meg's teachers have assigned them a project to talk about it what their experience in the years of elementary school. They can work in teams or alone. Since most of the friends that Meg has known her since kindergarten to second grade, she had decided to work with them.
"So Perry," Meg said as she was whiting something down. "How is your part coming out?"
Perry was a girl as well as is Meg and also have cool clothes. She has light skin, black hair, blue eyes, and is also Meg's second best friend. She too is going to go to the same middle school as Meg. What's awesome is that most of Meg's friends live by her or around her neighborhood and she has all of their numbers so they would call her. Her parents got money but not as much as Meg's parents do.
"I got all of our pictures from the yearbooks," Perry said with a soft smile. "Though, it's quite an shame we're going to be leaving elementary school because we have been here for a long time." Her eyes grown sad as she thought about a few of her friends who is going to move out of town or just couldn't end up in the same as she and Meg is going to attend.
"You said it, my friend." Meg agreed. "But atleast some of us might be staying together until college."
"Yeah, but still an shame." Ryan said as he place the plasterboard down lightly so he doesn't break it or the materials on it. "It'd also an shame that we're going to grow up basically and have to meet kids who we never seen before. But we have cool outfits so most likely we are going to be getting friends fast. Remember first grade when most of the kids higher than our grade level already wanted to be our friend."
"Yeah," Meg says.
"What do we do now?" Meg's friend, Joshuna, asked.
Joshuna is Perry's best friend and have knew her for a long time. He is good friends with Meg and also have those high afford clothes. To be honest, Meg have influence people just because there are rich doesn't mean they should bully those under them.
The bell than ring, and the group who were working on there particular part of the project knew they had to head to Gym period. Well, this is the last day they're going to have bookbags so they leave their materials in a secured room, so they work on it again for the tomorrow and the whole next week of school. Meg walked down with her cool air pods as did her friends with their headphones and air pods. Most of the kids move out of the way as the most coolest fifth grader and kid in school walked past them. Some of the kids in the younger grades will miss her because she would sometimes come around and would read stories for them after school.
The teacher than assemble them into pairs after they dressed into their clothes. Meg were wearing blue shorts and a black shirt. Meg knew how to fight since she trained with her father everyday and sometimes manage to push him back but she never actually win against him since the age groups. She had been the most toughest kid who no kid wanted to practice fight against. Some kids send soft punches so Meg don't be too hard on them. Other kids would learn the hard way of trying their hardest and would get destroyed by her willpower and strength, though each time she always give the kids pats and help them up.
Meg were currently wrestling with a big kid who were twice her side. He send an punch towards her with his glove but the girl ducked and send an punch towards his belly before sending an punch to his knees that send him against the floor. It didn't hurt as bad as it could have.
"Great job, Meg," the gym teacher praised one of her favorite student. She always manage to work out just fine for the last five years and have taken pictures of her every time to show students in the future whom Meg Bowman is like.
Meg is one of the reasons to why they have winned against other teams when they are in the gym. She is practically good at everything and can play basketball, baseball, soccer, swimming, the track, able to do pushups, pullups, situps, chinups.
Meg helped the student up and shake his hand. "Good job, buddy," she said proudly. That is another reason why she is popular and cool. Usually, students whom win is always rubbing it in someone's face yet Meg is different and that is why many kids in the younger grades and teachers are going to miss her.
"Man, you know how to fight," the boy states with a smile.
"Yeah, well atleast I haven't thrown you yet, Bosh," she teases.
Bosh is an kid with blue eyes, brown hair, and mix skin just like Ryan. He is also cool and is one of Meg's good friend. The teacher walked over, "Meg, I need to do several pullups and than run the track, along with you two Ryan and Perry."
"Okay," Meg said as her two best friends and her went to the hanger bars. She was glad that she would have to practice with her best friends since they always enjoy a good race. Well, most of the time, it ain't an race since whenever one slows down or falls, the two others is always there. Meg would usually run the track and win each time and never be that one, but it happened to Ryan and Perry a few times throughout the years.
Meg were doing her pullups and manage to win rather quickly. Well, she is the one who always wins because she takes her studies seriously. She is labeled the smartest kid in the class and that is why so many kids would try to beg her for her answers during an test or something or when they want an bite at her lunch, but yet Meg ignored them or act like she doesn't hear them.
After doing the pullups, she went out and wait for Ryan and Perry who caught up several seconds later. They than begin running with considerable speed during 1 mile. Whenever they slowed down Meg slowed too because she didn't want to leave her friends behind.
Soon they came to an end and went off the track as the other teams finish the race themselves. Meg and the other kids played Basketball. Since her new parents have taught her much, Meg manage to break ankles and send hoops. Boys were surprised due to her being an girl, and to some this is a boy game but she is even better than most of the boys on her school team. They haven't seen her playing Basketball, just soccer, yet she is extremely smart, talented, and special.
After Meg dodged around a few of the rival students in the game, she jumped and forced the ball due the hoop. After, the gym teacher gave them water so they reenergize themselves. Class is going to end soon so they'd needed water so they can finish and go back inside.
It was time to go back inside. In their locker rooms, they grabbed their respective bookbags and begin to head outside due to the bell is bound to ring soon.
In Quahog, years passed since Meg Griffin had gone missing. The town have only grown for the worst if not already for five years. The Griffins were the most foolish family in town since Peter Griffin would always commit foolish things.
Chris Griffin is in kindergarten now. Since his parents don't have a big budget, he is always labeled as the weirdest kid in class, like his lost sister once was. To be honest, Peter and Lois hadn't expect their daughter to run away from them.
For a time, they wanted to find their daughter, to force her to come back to their home and continued her life with them, especially with the authorities always coming by to examined how they're like and the bills that must be paid.
The house was labeled unfit for their daughter and the reason to why Chris wasn't taken away is because there is no sign of abuse on him so they still had their son.
Chris came home after another day at school, only to find his dad drunked again after a long day at the clan. His mother were in the kitchen, making dinner casually. "Hey, mom," Chris said. "Today, I made an coloring book."
"Wow, that's great honey," Lois said, patting him on the head. "Now go change your clothes and take your bookbag off." Peter came downstairs when he smelt dinner cooking and sat uncomfortably in his chair. Chris ran off at the same time.
"Hey, Lois," Peter said drunkenly. "Is breakfast ready?" He clearly have been spending the whole day with his pals and has gotten wasted. Lois slightly wrinkled her nose. Peter being drunk have always been an problem yet it gets worst everyday.
"No, honey," Lois answered. "I'm cooking dinner."
"L-Lous-Lois, have I ever told you about the time that I've stick this hose against Quagmire's backyard?" Peter asked shamelessly as his head collapsed against the table with drool.
"Yes, Peter," she responded clearly annoyed at the state her husband was in but yet it was clear that she wouldn't ever ditch him because she had love him too much to do that. Yet, the family hasn't been the same after Meg left that one night.
Chris is becoming exactly like his father and would sometimes watch his drunken state, slowly becoming inspired by him. "Good afternoon, dad," Chris said as he went up to his chair.
"Chris, did you thought about quitting school?" Peter asked.
"No," Chris answered.
"Well, just quit school and you'll become like your old man," Peter said.
"Peter!" Lois scolded her fully drunk husband. She than went over to her son and place her hands on her son's shoulder. "Don't listen to your father, honey, you will have bills to pay in the future. You also may have children that will need your undivided attention."
Lois allowed an grimaced to form as she remember Meg. To keep their son from knowing of his bigger sister, both parents removed pictures of Meg, which wasn't hard because they haven't take so many pictures of her. Peter easily forgotten her but Lois found it harder to forget her only daughter.
Sure, she has been slightly annoying but to think she ran away in the dark. She had remember going to Meg's room the next morning after she was 'late' to breakfast only to find her missing and gone with her bookbag.
They tried to have Peter's old cop friend, Joe, to find her but yet the search was unsuccessful. Later, authorities came by and treated them like criminals and searched their house. They have been there for two weeks, and saw Peter in his drunk state and all of the beers that were around, the broken part of the house, Peter with his drunk friends and acting like children. The second they stormed in, the Griffins knew they were into trouble. Lois tried to use her charms but yet they seen through her lies and the only reason to why Chris wasn't taken away as well is because no signs of abuse on him like it was on their oldest daughter.
They had threatened to put Peter and Lois into cuffs but they didn't because no charges were pressed against them. They also advised Peter get therapy for his drinking problem which he didn't of course followed. The two of them could have been serving ten years for harming a little kid.
They only wonder what happen to their daughter; she may be dead on the streets because she was only five years old and she couldn't have any better parents like her and Peter, right?
Wrong...
The last day of school soon came. Meg and her friends finished with their project and got top grade on it. They were quickly at gym with Meg wearing cool gym clothes that is not the a mockery but the real thing that only ones dream for. Some kids have envy her because they don't have parents whom have her paycheck. She have green shorts and a blue shirt.
She been wearing clothes like that everyday but yet kids are jealous that she always has top models things. They stopped trying to match her brand and instead wanted to be someone whom Meg Bowman call an friend.
Meg saw Ryan running down with the ball, with Perry and other players flanking him. "Ryan! Pass!" She shouted. Ryan threw the ball towards her and soon many try to take the ball from her hands.
Meg dodged two girls and twirl around three big boys and jumped, slamming the ball into the hoop. Since they didn't had to do much, the game would so long. Around thirty minutes before class would end, Meg went up to the teacher with an bag.
Since she won't need all of the clothes from her early years, Meg decided to give them up for others who would need them. Some of the clothes are still good and wanted 'till this day and the school is still doing fundraisers and charity.
She walked to her third grade teacher class, who also one of the runners of the fundraisers. Out of most of the teachers, she is one of her favorite teacher. Meg knocked on the door three times and a kid answered the door only to be shocked when he saw the most popular kid in school.
"Sup," she said to the wide-eyed kid and narrowed her eyes as she saw them watching an movie, remembering when she was like them. She entered the class and the whole class eyes went wide when they saw the fifth grader who been the most popular kid in school for the last two years. Everybody bigger brother and sister and their cousin or something like that have always been told she was the most popular kid in the youngest grades.
"Meg Bowman," the teacher said surprised at seeing a student she once teach a long time ago.
Meg went over to hear former teacher's desk, gaining some stares from the younger kids. "Here some old clothes." She declared, putting the big bag down and smiling at the class that she have once been in. Third grade was a good year for her.
Nostalgic crawled up her as she smiled at the class. "Thanks, Meg," her former teacher smiled at seeing her old student when Meg was in third grade. Meg were about to call out when she heard an:
"Wait! Can we have your number?!" A girl called.
Meg stopped and rolled her eyes briefly yet taking an glance at her former teacher she saw her nodding. She saw a group of nerds sitting beside each other, one were looking at her hopefully and she slightly smiled. Going over, she grabs an sheet of paper and pen and wrote her phone number down.
She gave the girl an hug; all of the kids were surprised upon seeing the school most popular kid giving her, a nerd to many, an hug. "Put your name and number on the paper," she said ribbing half out. "I will call you later."
The girl did so, and Meg gave her another hug, followed with handshaking and clapping hands with others, even giving her phone number to others. Throughout the years, people would kill for her number.
"Peace," Meg said. "Goodbye, miss," she smiles and gave her one last hug before turning and leaving the class. She let out an sigh and allowed an few tears to fall. Middle school will be coming for her after this year. She went back to her class and saw them now playing on their electronics with their own clothes in a bag.
Meg begin writing another story on "Fanfiction" and the bell ring as soon as she published the chapter. Meg walked by many younger kids who gave her looks. It was such a shame that she won't ever see some of them again; others she may run into throughout middle school.
Meg gave kids highfives and hugs and said: "Goodbye." Her friend, who was also popular, mirrored her actions. Soon, they got to their bikes and Meg gave her friends who wouldn't be going to the same school as her hugs. Luckily, that was only a very few so mostly she would see her friends in her growing up years.
Meg gotten onto her bike that still was cool and have much qualities since her father would always go down there every summer and pay for improvements.
Wanting to do some wheelies, Meg decided to go to the new park. "Peace," she said to her friends before pedaling to the bike. "Excuse me! Coming through!" Two couples were walking with a child who look to be in pre-k.
Upon seeing her, they gasped as they thought she was about to run them over yet she clicked a small button and the bike glide over them. "Woah, she's cool," the child said over exaggerating as the bike landed slightly away. Even the parents were left in awe themselves as the most popular kid in the neighborhood did some awesome trick like that all.
Meg drove up the ramp and landed on the ground. While she was young, her parents would want her back a certain time yet she had self-defense classes with her father and have more muscles than some adults. Plus, she's in fifth grade so she has to have her own time and independence. Her parents have always got the paycheck and even have life insurance that when they pass or enter retirement she would get their money.
She went through the streets and yet Meg Bowman still had that cool image to even some adults. Meg drove to the park and saw a bike area. Deciding to test her tricks out and perhaps discovering new tricks, Meg stayed for a few hours.
After evening started to come, Meg came back home. Some had even confused her bike as a cool motorcycle since she can accelerated very fast. No doubt she will make a good biker some day. She's even better than some of them. Meg came to an stop at her house.
The doors to the fence opened, and Meg drove in. She pulled up and open the door with her keys as she gotten off her bike. Entering, Meg went upstairs and remove her clothes before coming back downstairs with a cool gown. She smelt dinner cooking, and instantly Meg ran to see her mother cooking another fine dinner. People at school use to always wonder why she had the best lunches but her mother was many things, especially an good cook. She already taught Meg how to cook just in case she's late from the duty.
"Hey, Meg," her mother said as she ran up to Meg and wrapped her in an hug. Meg returned the hug. She had love her parents so much due to them giving her an cool life and offer her many opportunities. "Hurt to see you not seeing some of your friends again?"
"Yes, I practically grown up with them," Meg states softly, hanging her head down with sadness.
"Well, you have inspired and have one many championships," she praised. "The principal liked you and she already put an high word for your middle school principal so that would be expecting you and may put you in an advance class. Maybe you can skip a few grades."
"Nah, I have rather grown up with other kids instead of skipping grades like an nerd and getting out of high school when I'm 15." Meg deduced firmly. "Plus, what if I'm stared at oddly or way older kids be treating me like I'm one of them? I would barely get any friends because people would think I'm too smart."
"Yeah, you are very special. I know many who would take an opportunity yet you are trying to get through all grades," she said, she was beyond relief that despite Meg is 11, a few months from 12, and is near her teenager stage that she still looks at her for comfort and loves to talk to her.
Meg went up towards her and wrapped her arms around her mother. Oh, she loved her very much. She was glad that she have grown up with these people for the last seven years. They're allowing her to have a childhood and offering her many chances. She has a gaming room which she played a lot. Unlike her former school where she could've remember kids being bullied, the students is actually respectful and doesn't try to fight. Meg didn't had to use her abilities on anybody in the past beside her boxing class, she have never really liked fighting out of sport or for fun, but likely she would defend herself.
At least, her mother and father tried to bring confidence in her and doesn't use her for their own gain. They were kids on TV who was forced into those type of life and has to carry things out. And those kids end up dead on the streets within a week because their parents pushed them. She wonder is her birth parents doing that to Chris, or even wonder do they have another child by now.
Well, it wouldn't surprise her if they want to replace her. Her birth parents really hated her. Meg would have been shamed and just that borning daughter of Peter and Lois Griffin. They didn't even try to find her throughout the years, but she had hope to see them again to roast them and mock them about her life is much better then theirs. Hell, as she grows older with makeup, she basically doesn't need it that much because the clothes and her mother also showing her fashion and her having top branded things. Her parents have very fulfilling lives that she would never had in another life.
Meg Bowman was sure she have a great future waiting for her.
