CHAPTER 3 : Approach


It's now 8:10 and the officers leave Jump Street, they take their car to go homego home and get ready for the mission.

- I'll come to your house when I'm ready so we'll go together in my car, ok ? Doug says.
- Sure, Tom answers.

After a few minutes they all arrive to their accommodation. They all live 5 minutes away from the Chapel of Jump Street.

Tom puts on his jeans with a hole in it, a white sweatshit with brown sleeves and a sleeveless jacket with a hole in it as well. He also puts a bandana in his hair. He doesn't forget the earrings. He takes a look at himself in the mirror : "a perfect rebel" he thinks. He's very sexy dressed that way but he doesn't seem to notice it.

Doug also puts on his jeans with a hole in it and a white sweatshirt with a green jacket over it. He also puts earrings and frost on his hair but no bandana.

Judy puts on her blue sweatshirt with a black jacket and a black skirt.

Ari puts a brown sweatshirt and a black jacket and a pair of jeans.

It's not 8:47 yet and Doug rings Tom's doorbell. Tom comes out and they go to the HALL High school in Doug's car.

Ari arrives at Judy's place. They leave together to go to the same Hight school but not at the same time as Tom and Doug, since it would probably not seem normal.

Tom and Doug arrive at the High school and and park the car on the parking reserved for people from the school. "It doesn't look so bad" thinks Tom. They come out of the car and walk till the entrance.

It's 9:03 and they already missed the first lesson. Students are running in the halls to go to their second class. The first course is at 8 and the school day ends at 3:30.
Tom and Doug go to the office to say they've arrived and the secretary tells them they're late for their first day.

- We know but we're the McQuaids brothers, Tom says smiling, we never arrive on time.
- You'd better stop this soon, says the woman. This is a respectable school, without problems and we expect our students to be on time in class. You should go to class . now.

Tom and Doug walk to the class where they're expected.

- A school without problems, says Tom. Let me laugh !
- Yeah, that's why we're sent here, says Doug, to keep the troubles away from teachers.
- We're the ones sent to class again... complains Tom.
- Stop complaining Tommy, we'll have fun you'll see.
- I hope so, he answers.

9:15. They arrive at the door and Tom takes a deep breath before knocking on it.
The teacher opens the door and is surprised the see the clothes on the new students.

- I guess you're the McQuaids !
- Yeah, that's right, says Doug.
- Hello, I'm the teacher, Mr Bindock.

Hearing that name makes Tom and Doug want to laugh. Being officers they can't but being the McQuaids they can and they have a smile on their faces.

- Class say 'Hello' to your new friends. the teacher says.
- Hi. Hello the students say.

The teacher looks at Tom and Doug's files and notices how bad they are. He makes some grimaces and everybody can see them.

- Well, I hope you'll make improvements and make efforts ! the teacher says.
- We'll do our best Mr Bindock, says Doug still smiling at the teacher's name.
- We'll see, says Bindock. Take a seat.

There's some empty seats in the class. Those are for one person only, the class is divided in three rows. There's about 20 students in this class. Tom goes to the middle of the classroom and some girl signals to him pointing to an empty seat next to her.
Doug takes a seat at the end of the classroom.
They can see there's some bad boys in the class. That's a good thing cause the McQuaids don't love to stay calm. They have to join those guys.
They fake falling asleep in class to force the teacher to stop his cours for a moment and yell at them.
Some bad boys don't hesitate to throw projectiles on the teacher when he's writing on the black board.
There's also students talking to each other, about their next party, the way to make money quickly.
Behind him, Doug hears 2 guys talking about having drugs. He listens to them carefully and then decides to join the conversation.

- Hi guys, I'm interested in what you're talking about, he says.
- It's private man, the 2 guys answer.
- Ok Ok, don't get mad, we're all looking to have fun, Doug says.
- What the hell do you want ? asks one of the guys.
- Relax man, I'm searching for the same thing you are. Do you know where we can find some ?
- Maybe. Well, we can meet after this class if you want.
- Agreed ! says Doug.

Doug gives Tom a look saying 'I'm on a case'.

Tom and Doug have been friends since they began working together 3 years ago. They're used to being together in missions and they understand each other better than anybody else. With just one look they know what the other is trying to say. They sometimes annoy each other but just for fun.

This class seems to go by slowly, normally it's a 2 hour-long class

It's not even 11 yet and the bell finally rings !
Tom and Doug are the last to leave the class. The others rushed to the door as if there was something very important in the halls. Strangely nobody's ever in a rush to enter the class but when it's time to get out of it everyone's like running !
There are so many people in the halls we could think we are in a big supermarket. Courses will start again at 11:20.

- Tom, Doug says, two guys behind me were talking about getting drugs.
- Are you sure it was about drugs ? Tom asks.
- Who do you think I am Tommy ? Of course I'm sure !
- Ok, and what did you tell them ?
- That I was interested in their conversation and I wanted to buy as well..
- And so what now ? Tom asks.
- Don't know cause they told me to get to my own conversation.
- Maybe we could show them we got money !
- But then they told me we could meet after the class, adds Doug.

Tom thinks a few moments.

- You got the money ? he asks Doug.
- Of course, look at all this cash, answers Doug agitating them under Tom's nose.
- Ok, let's go !

They're walking in the hall towards the men's bathroom cause that's the place were teens usually go to deal. The two officers just need to find where the bathroom is.
Once they arrive they violently push the door and enter.
The two teens that spoke to Doug in class are here with some other teens who had to go to the bathroom. The two teens ask everybody to go away except the McQuaids of course.

- Hi I'm Rick, says one of the teens.
- And I'm Mikey, says the other one.
- And we're Tom and Doug McQuaids, says Doug.

Rick and Mikey look at the brothers a few moments as if they were trying to find something.

- So you're brothers ! says Mikey.
- But you don't look like brothers, adds Rick.
- We don't have the same mother, says Tom.
- Then I understand ! says Mikey.

Doug makes a sign with his hand saying 'that's life'.

- So you're searching to have fun ? asks Mikey.
- Oh yeah, says Tom.
