Michael and KITT dropped Tasha off the next morning at school. As far as anyone knows she hitched a ride. For her, it was nice to be in the safe zone of KITT., especially with her brother there.
Scott was there, out front of school, waiting for her. He was blown away by the car that she rode up in.
"Awesome wheels! It that family?" He was very impressed with KITT.
"No, just some guy I hitched a ride with. He says that he stars teaching here today." She started walking towards her locker. Scott told her that he would see her in class and left very quickly. As she got near her locker her watch beeped.
"Yes, KITT?"
"Tasha, my scanners show a bomb in your locker, set to go off 30 seconds after you open the door." Let the fun begin she thought.
"Ok. Is it something you can defuse? "
"Of course. Just open the locker." She took a deep breath and opened her locker. Sure enough, there was the bomb. Easily defused, though.Who ever did it, really didn't know much about hi tech wiring. She clipped the wires, and reprogrammed the clock to become an alarm clock. Then calmly put it in her backpack.
"Where is Michael?"
"In the teacher's lounge."
"Have him bump into me in the hall, and take this. I think it's a good idea that you keep it."
"Ok"
"Oh, and download the feed from the cam in my locker. We are going to need to look at it later. Thanks, Pal."
"No problem." I wonder who's idea this was.. and why she thought on her way to class. Scott seemed very surprised to see her walk through the door.nah ha she thought I bet he had something to do with it
"Hiya" she said to him as she sat down.
"Hi" he said, still surprised. She let it slide, and didn't say anything. She would feel much better about things after KITT had the now defunked bomb.
Everything went like a normal school day until her last class, GYM. The one Michael was teaching. They were scheduled to play flag football. And of course, Scott was in her class. So was a couple of the other guys she had met the night before. When the class got split up into 2 teams, they were on the other team. Both teams lined up for the snap. Now with flag football, it supposed to be no touching. Just grab the flag. Or so Tasha thought. She was on the defensive side. The ball snapped, and it looked like most of the other team was headed after her, and she didn't even have the ball! Michael noticed right away, and blew his whistle. No one listened. She ran and dodged them as best as she could, but in the end 3 landed on top of her.
Michael pealed the 3 off of her, and then checked her out for broken bones.
"Hey kid! Hello? Are you ok?" he said, trying not to let his brotherly concern be noticed. He slapped the side if her cheeks a little.
"HEY! What did you do that for? I'm fine. Let me get up" She said. She stood up and glared at the guys. She knew why they did it, but still.
Michael had her sit out the rest of the game. She took out her PDA and looked up the camera feed from KITT. And she wanted to do a little research on the people she met the night before.
After class ended, Michael came over to check up on her.
"Are you really ok? You had me spooked."
"I'm ok. It gave me a chance to check out a few things. KITT will fill you in."
"Ok, we'll catch up with you later on. BE CAREFUL!" She just looked at him and winked. Then she got up from the bench and headed for the tree to meet Scott. one person can make a difference she thought over and over as she walked.
