Semi-Truthfulness
The whole family (yes, Jazz was there, but she didn't have anything important to say, so I forgot to mention her) plus Sam and Tucker exchanged startled and worried looks.
"You know her?" both Jazz and Maddie asked the group of friends at the same time.
"Yeah, she's from school," Sam answered as Danny went to Jenny's head, Sam to her feet and they gently, but quickly picked her up, and Tucker grabbed her big duffle bag.
"We'll be upstairs if you need us. We'll tell you when she's awake. I'm sure she just passed out from lack of sleep, like every teen. Danny rushed the sentence at the rest of his family, who looked a little confused, and had no choice but to accept what he just said as the group ran up the stairs and slammed the door to Danny's room.
She slowly regained consciousness. Her hearing came back first, then her sight. She saw three blurred figures standing around a computer, well one was sitting (Tucker) but you get the point.
"That's really weird."
"What, Tuck?" Danny questioned his friend at the comment he had just made.
"Well, according to the town and state, there is no record of the Jenny that we know." Tucker explained trying to figure out why.
"How do you know her middle and last name, birthday, and other personal info that you shouldn't know to search her in the state?" Sam asked her techno geek friend.
"Easy. Just hack the Casper High School main computer." Tucker replied, looking accomplished.
All of a sudden the memories came flooding back to her as she realized who's room she was in, who's bed she was on…
She had let out a small gasp that didn't go unnoticed to the three neat the computer.
"Look she's up!" Tucker exclaimed.
"No, Really?" Jenny heard Sam's sarcastic remark and smiled to herself.
Then Tucker all of a sudden started spouting off questions aimed at her. "Why are you here? Why'd you pass out? Where are you from? Why do you have that huge duffle bag? Are you – OW!!" Sam slapped Tucker in the back of the head. Jenny and Danny laughed at the priceless look on his face.
"Take it easy Tuck! She just got up. Don't want to bombard her with questions!" Danny told his best friend.
"I-it's okay." Jenny spoke up for the first time.
"So that's what she sounds like!" Tucker whispered to himself, although everyone, unfortunately for him, heard it.
Sam went to slap him in the back of the head again, but he actually dodged.
"Ha! Ha!" he said in triumph, but Sam elbowed him in the stomach "Oomph!" as he fell back onto the rolling computer chair and crashed into the wall behind him.
Everyone burst out laughing, Jenny included at the surprised African-American boy getting up from the ground and fixing his glasses back on his nose. "Ha, ha. Too funny." Jenny wiped a tear of laughter from her eye. "But seriously guys, if you want me to, I can answer some questions the best I can." (Key words: the best I can) Jenny offered to everyone in the room, who merely looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"But this time Danny asks the questions Tucker." Sam glared at Tucker. "What? A guy can't try to get some answers around here?" he countered.
Sam went to injure the poor (yeah right) boy again when Danny stopped her. "Seriously guys." Was all he said, but it quieted the two down.
Jenny was now sitting up on the bed with Danny sitting next to her, Sam on the floor, and Tucker on the computer chair that was now rolled over next to the bed.
She took a deep breath and prepared herself for the questions about to come.
"First of all, why are you here, in my house?" Danny asked.
"Long story," Jenny replied, not wanting to elaborate. But when she looked up she could see that the answer wasn't good enough for them. She sighed. "I ran away," she stated simply.
"Why?" Tucker asked, but when Sam gave him the death glare, he shut his mouth, knowing not to ask any more questions.
"Because I hate it there," she said with a trace of anger in her voice.
"Do your parents know that you hate it?" Sam asked the question this time.
"What? Oh, no! It's not my house that I hate it at!" All of them gave her confused looks. "Well, my family is kind of…out of town. And I've been forced to stay with…a friend of theirs. But I hate it at his place. Well, I hate him more than the place, actually. The other three heard the pain in anger in her voice, so they decided to drop that subject.
"Why did you pass out back there?" Danny.
"Lack of sleep."
"Okay last question for now," Danny said. Tucker gave a little pout, but instantly stopped when Sam gave him a warning glance.
"All right, shoot." Jenny prepared herself for the, thankfully, last question.
"Why'd you come here?" Danny looked her straight in the eye.
She sighed. She seemed to be doing that a lot lately. "I needed help." The bracelet Gave her a little shock. She looked at it apprehensively.
"With what?" Sam.
"I-I need some…food. I haven't eaten in a while." She lied. She had eaten only a half hour ago. And had enough food left in the bag to last her a month.
But her lie seemed to pass for the three. "Oh. Well if that's the case, then me and Tuck'll go downstairs and grab some for you." Sam said as she grabbed a "but"-ing Tucker and dragged him out the door.
Once they were out of earshot, Danny turned to her.
"Why'd you lie?"
Jenny froze in mental shock.
"Lie?" She asked as she frantically searched her brain to come up with an excuse.
"Yes. Look, I know that you lied on the answer to the last question, so don't bother trying to find an excuse." Danny told her bluntly.
She sighed again and put her head down in defeat. "All right, you caught me. The truth is-" She was interrupted by a very painful shock that she knew cam from that dang bracelet. She wasn't quick enough to hide the physical pain that showed clear in her eyes.
"What is it?" Danny asked, worry embedded in his tone.
"Nothing," Jenny responded absently as she thought, oh, no! Please don't tell me he found me!!
She quickly stood up and said a rushed 'have to go' to a startled Danny before rushing out the door, accidentally dropping the black journal with electric green swirls engraved into the cover on her way.
"Wait!!" Danny cried after her with the journal in his hands for the second time, but Jenny was long gone.
"So she has decided to run away has she, Maddie?" The cat just meowed in response to the froot loop. "I believe she tried to seek refuge at Daniel's, but it appears that she has come to her senses and left that place. Good thinking on her part. Wouldn't want anything to happen to poor Daniel…"
He laughed evilly as the scene slowly faded into darkness.
She ran down the street not knowing where to go. The two things that she did know were one, Vlad could find her at any given moment, and two, if she was at Danny's and Vlad found out, she would be putting Danny in danger, and she just couldn't do that to him.
She ran around the corner that led to one of the many alleys in Amity, not paying attention to where she was going, and sure enough…
SMACK
"Sorry," both her and the poor victim muttered. Jenny stood up and brushed herself off. She then offered a hand to the other still lying on the ground.
The hand that took the invitation was small and soft.
Jenny gasped and stepped back a little in shock, letting the person fall to the ground again. She couldn't believe who she managed to run into…
All right people! Guessing time! Can you guess who this person that Jenny ran into is?? Oh, come on! Leave the guessing in the reveiws maybe...? :)
