*Dear Readers: Before I go on with Chapter 4, I'd
just like to give a special thanks to KittyWaves for
her undying support
to my fiendish cause! And just a reminder also that
the disclaimers are in Chapter 1, and wherever else I
added some in the story.
I also promise to do my best not to mess up Opal, Jett
and Jay any further =). Without any further
interruption, here is
Grease 2001 continued on!


Vinny made it to his classes, and looked eagerly
for lunch period to come, paying little attention to much else.

At last, there was lunch period, and Vinny came in by himself.
He saw on one side The Circle, on the other side he saw
the Red Flames and Fuchsia Queens, both sitting down at
lunch tables talking amongst themselves. He looked from
side to side, trying to figure out which way to go.
John spotted him, and pursued him rather forcefully.
Meanwhile, Opal stepped up to defend Vinny. Jett soon
followed, while Jay walked over for the ladies' support.

Vinny was leaning toward the Circle's side, but then
Kristen stood up and gave Vinny the "eyes and smile"
routine from behind the rest of them, which made
Vinny even more confused than before.

The rest of the Red Flames and Fuchsia Queens came,
and so it was then 8 against 3 with Vinny in the middle
of it.

John: Chris, get out the stereo.

Chris set down a boom-box on their lunch table.
He turned the CD on. A fierce hip-hop rhythm blared throughout the cafe.

John started rappin at The Circle, the others followed.

John: We'z the Red Flames, YEAH!
We'll knock ya'll out, mothafukkaz!
Zeke: Ya better get out o' tha way!
I'm gonna blast you all fuckin day!
John: Hey you, kid, you better make up yo mind!
Vinny, you will not hang out with that kind
Zeke: That kind o' trash, we kick they ass!
We'll do the same to you, boy, yo' walkin on glass!
John: I'll pound you son, I kill ya in dis place!
So you best recognize and submit to our wayz!
Robbie: Back up, back up, back up!
Here we go now, DJ Robbie sayin "Shut the fuck up, bitch!, shut the fuck up!"
I ain't takin no shit from you freaks that be wearin' nasty clothes
Knee-highed boots, black lace, all be lookin like HOs!
Eat it, eat it, eat it ya butt-ugly hoochie witches!
Ding dong, the witches be dead, all ya'll bitchezzzz!!!!

John, Zeke, Robbie: All Y'all bitchezzz!!! Back tha fuck up!

Chris stopped the CD.

Opal looked The Red Flames straight in the eyes as her face was showing anger
at them. She knew though that now was not the time to settle the score.

Opal: Jett, Jay, let's go...WE'LL HAVE OUR REVENGE, WE PROMISE YOU THAT!

The Circle eventually backed off, so the Red Flames
claimed their prize. Vinny ended up sitting with them while they
talked amongst themselves, leaving him out of everything. Vinny just
sat there, trying not to stare at Kristen, but he looked at her for a moment
when she wasn't looking. Vinny thought, ~She's SO beautiful!!~
He then looked back at The Circle with a sympathetic, but hopeless expression on his
face.

Just then, Robbie turned to Vinny and whisperedin his ear...

Robbie: We own you now, Vinny...Don't even THINK about getting your nasty
hands on Kristen...we'd have you tortured to no end, son. Meet us
after school.

Vinny's eyes sank deeper into sadness and despair, apparently
accepting his new fate of servitude, for he was not much for fighting.
~How can I stop this?!~ Vinny thought to himself.

The Lunch bell rang, so everyone scurried out of the cafeteria
and headed to their classes. Vinny looked at Opal, and
frowned at himself. Opal lip-sanc "Call me" as he was driven up the
stairs by the crowd of students. Vinny nodded as she started to
disappear from view...

After the final bell of the day rang, and the Principal made her
announcements on the intercom, everyone sprung from their classes to leave for
the day. Vinny snuck out of his class as inconspicuously
as possible, and managed to find The Circle.

Vinny: Hey, I'm in a bit of trouble I think...

He had a nervous look on his face.
Just then, The Red Flames approached with their off-pink colored
girlfriends, and their eyes pointed right at Vincent.

Robbie: Hey Vinny, what'r you doin hangin out with those geeks, huh?!
Get your ass over here NOW!

The Circle looked back and saw the brute force standing nearby.

Jay: What do we do now?? Vinny's in bad trouble.
Opal: This has gotten pretty awful. I really don't know.

Jett walked over to Vinny and whispered...
Jett: Run, we're right behind you Vinny.

Vinny looked into Jett's eyes, fearing the consequences if he were to run.
Vinny looked at Robbie and the rest of the gang with
desperate eyes, but that look Jett gave him snapped in his mind, so he turned
quickly and ran down the hall as fast as he could. The Circle was right
behind him but slowly losing speed, and at the same
time The Red Flames were gaining on Vinny fast. Vinny made it out the
front doors, and started running down the sidewalk outside of the school.

Vinny ran into a small group of guys and fell on his back. It was 3
tall men. The front man had greyish blond hair, which was slicked back.
Then, right beside him was one with greyish black hair, also greased back.
Behind them was one with greyish black curly hair, also greased as
well. Sporting blue jeans, sneakers, white T-shirts, and black leather
jackets...
It was Kenickie, Danny, and La'Tierri of Rydell's T-Birds.

Danny stepped up and picked up Vincent slowly...
Danny: So, John...Like pickin on my boy?

Danny took the cigarette from behind his ear, put it to his mouth,
and lit it up with a Zippo that Kenickie swiftly whipped out
at the same time, and Danny took a huge drag off it.

La'Tierri: You's guys ain't gonna do nuthin'! Go home before we start
doin' some damage.
Kenickie: Yeah, fatso, way to tell 'em, eh?
La'Tierri: Ey-ey, shu-cho mouf man, I ain't fat, I'm big-boned, right?

The Circle ran up to The T-Birds at last, stopping in their tracks
in amazement.

Jay: My god....Has the legend been re-born?!
Opal & Jett: Huh?

The girls looked at Jay weirdly, shrugged, then stood behind the old guys.

John: HA HA HA! Look at this! It's the T-Birds! Bunch of old farts
wanna play with the big kids, eh?

John snapped his fingers, and his thugs whipped out their switch-blades.
John reached in his jacket and unsheathed a large-bladed dagger.

John: See this? We's gonna chop up some old pieces o' shit! YEAH!
Zeke: This will be fun. My first hit...Danny Zucko.
Robbie: Danny is MINE!
Zeke: FUCK YOU!

They all took a glance at Chris, but he said nothing.

Danny: How about if both of you take me, huh? Ya kids need to be
taught a lesson!

Just then, Sandy leaped from inside the car and ran over to Danny and
Vincent.

Sandy: NO!!! Break this up now! Danny, you know better than that!
Hey, Red Flames, or whatever you guys call yourselves...Get the hell
out of here before I call the police!!!

She gave off a most powerful vibe, and with her piercing stare at them
all, the Red Flames took off. Kenickie & La'Tierri parted as well,
leaving only Danny, Vinny, and The Circle to face the wrath that is SANDY.

Sandy: I saw the whole thing out here...Vinny, you and your friends
head to the Convertible...your Grandfather and I have to have a chat.

Vinny and The Circle nodded, and made their way quickly to the car.
They hopped inside, rather shaken by the whole thing.

Vinny: Oh my...this has been a scary day...IS THIS WHAT MY WHOLE
HIGH SCHOOL CAREER IS GONNA BE LIKE?!

Vinny started to breathe heavily and his eyes were widened.

Jett: Calm down, Vinny...It's ok.

Vinny just shook his head nervously and shivered a bit.
Opal looked at him, she then bent over the back seat and turned on the
radio.

Opal: There, that should make you feel a little better now.
Jay: I love this song, it's awesome...We have to come up with a plan
though.
I don't think we can continue on like this with nothing much to work
with.
Jett: Maybe it's time we used some of our skills.
Jay: We must be cautious, we cannot use them to harm others, remember
that.

The three nodded.
Vinny scratched his head, wondering what they were talking about.

Vinny: What's this "plan" you guys are talking about?
They shrugged.
Jay: We honestly don't know yet, but we'll figure that out later on I
guess.
Vinny: Yeah, maybe you can all come over for dinner and then we can
talk about it afterwards.

Jay: Sounds spectacular.
Opal: I'd have to ask my parents first.

Jett nodded at Opal's remark, then proceeded to unsheath her cell-phone.
She dialed the number to her house...

Jett: ...Hi Mom, I have a question...Can I go to a friend's house for
dinner?
....cool, thanks mom, I'll be back home before too late, no problem.
...byebye.
Jett: Here ya go, Opal, your turn. Vinny, it's cool, I'll hang out.

Opal dialed her house...
Opal: Hi, hey Dad, can I stay for dinner at a friend's house...it's
the Zucko's...cool, thanks dad, byebye love ya.
Opal: It's cool here too, I'm there dude.

Jay looked over at Sandy and Danny across the parking lot...
Jay: Wow, looks like she's really givin' it to him, guys.

The rest turned their heads, and began to cringe as they heard
her voice raise to unfathomable levels. Opal shivered a bit...

Opal: That's quite a temper...even for me!
Vinny: Grandpa can take it, but he might be walking funny later on,
hehe.

They suddenly tried to hold back from laughing as Vinny's predictions
came to reality...
Sandy came back to the car.

Sandy: Vinny, we're gonna need an ice-pack for your grandfather when
we get home.
Vinny: Yes, mama.

Danny came back slowly to the car, as if he was carrying a log with
his legs and trying to walk at the same time, as he was hobbling along.

Danny: Geez, Sandy...erggh....that hurt! I'm an old man now ya know!
Sandy: Sure coulda fooled me!
Danny: Sorry 'bout that guys...How 'bout if you kids come up and have
dinner with us.

Vinny looked at The Circle...

Vinny: Great idea, papa. Sounds good!

He smiled in that "duh." expression at his friends.
