-The next day, Principal's Office-
A group of adults huddled in an office listening to a balding man, rant about their children's behavior.
"Axel beat up another student , so badly, that said student is still in the nursing ward, here at Spencer. And the remaining boys did nothing to stop it, the girls even threw a few punches."The balding man was now red in the face, but showed no sign of ending his rant."And as for Karizma, she hasn't been to classes for the last week or so. She claims she is sick, but has not seen the nurse. Her grades are starting to fall. And their all suspended for the week further moreā¦".Caleb interrupted the man, as politely as he could."We understand sir, and we appreciate, that your willing to give them all another chance instead of expelling them all. Now if you'll excuse us, we'd like to collect our children and deal with them now."
The remaining "O. sons" and other adults, nod in agreement with Caleb. The Balding, red-faced man, stared them all down, before huffing and hitting the intercom on his desk.
" Mrs. Spalding, send them in please."
His gruff voice sounded threw the machine and an sweet ,elderly, voice replied back.
"Right away sir."
No soon had the connection end did the door open and a group of 6 sullen teens walked in. The Balding man looked them over before, growling out.
"Where is Miss Danvers?"
The others looked down, none to keen on answering at the moment.
" Don't just stand there, answer the man, Scarlett."
Snapped Mrs. Grimn, as she glared at her daughter and friends. Scarlett sighed before looking up at the adults.
"Yes mom, We don't know sir, she wasn't in class today."
Caleb was beyond mad at his children's behavior, and was visible shaking from rage, as the man shook his head and excused them all. The group of adults and teens, silently walked thur the halls of Spencer, either to mad or upset to speak. Once out side Tyler turned towards the none sons and apologized.
" Mrs. Grimn, Mr. and Mrs. Samuals , I'd just like to apologize for our children's behavior and for the fact their got your daughters involved, but we hope you won't forbid them all from being friends."
Mr. Samuals shook hands with each of the sons' fathers and replied.
"Of course not, I know my daughter and if she hit that boy it was for good reason. But that doesn't mean she's not getting punished"
He finished as his gaze turned to his daughter, who screwed under it. Mrs. Samuals and Mrs. Grimn both agreed and the adults bid each other farewell.
Once the "" and the "new sons" were alone, the boys tried to explain to their angry fathers what had happened.
"Dad, we can explain!"
They all blurted out at once, as they headed towards the parking lot.
"Not Now."
Caleb, Pogue and Reid relied with a huff. Tyler shook his head as they all piled into their respective cars and left the parking lot.
-Meanwhile, in town-
Kari decided not to attend class again, and was wondering thru town, stopping at random stores and buying things, she knew she didn't need. She was passing a car lot when something caught her eye.
"Ooo... I so want that."
She said aloud as she walked towards a yellow with black top, 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible.
" Little old fashioned, but still amazing."
She added as she ran her hand over the car's hood, As a salesman came up to her.
"May I help you miss."
Kari smiled at him and shook her head yes.
"I'd like to buy this car."
She said turning towards the man.
"Sure thing miss, where are your parents and we can strike a deal."
He said looking around for her mom and/or dad.
" Oh its just me, how much?"
She man frowned and the replied.
"Sorry miss can't sell to anyone under 21, new policy."
He turned to walk away, Kari glared as her eyes turned black for a few minutes.
"On second thought, you seem like a responsible young lady. I won't tell if you don't."
The salesman said with a wink, as he placed a hand on Kari's back and lend her to his office to fill out the paperwork.
-an hour later-
Kari was driving out of the parking lot, with her new toy.
-Danvers house-
The boys sat squished together on a couch, watching as Caleb tried to reach his daughter.
"Karizma Rose Danvers, get your ass home, now!"
Caleb thundered into the phone, as he left yet another message for his daughter.
The boys watched and listened as Caleb yelled at the phone, not noticing the other 7 adults walking into the room.
"Not going well, I see."
Reid said as he placed a hand, on Axel shoulder, causing the young boy to flinch. Caleb hung up the phone and threw it into a near by chair.
"What do you think!"
He lashed out to Reid's comment. Sarah walked up and hugged her husband, before stirring him into a chair and sitting in his lap. The remaining adult fallowed thier example, til the boys found themselves surround by unhappy parents.
"Well boys, care to explain, why your all suspended for a week?"
Honor asked from her place on the love seat. The boys all looked down at thier laps, before looking up at Axel. He sighed and then stood, knowing his dad was beyond disappointed in him, he was soppose to be trying harder after thier talk but the ass deserved it and worse.
"Well..."
Katie said from the arm chair she was sitting on. All eyes were on Ax as he stammered a bit.
" Well the thing is... You see..."
The boy who normal had an answer to everything, could talk himself out of any situation was nervous. The "" took this as a bad sign.
Just when Ax was about to sit down, he pictured Kari, bruised,crying and alone. His anger flared and he lashed out.
"THE BASTARD BEAT HER FOR WHO KNOWS HOW LONG, iSOLATED HER FROM US AND WHEN EVERYONE FOUND OUT WHAT HE DID, HE ACTED AS IF IT WAS NOT WRONG."
Axel's breathing was labored, as he fought the urge to use, not daring to look at anyone in the room. You could of heard a pin drop or a tree fall in the forrest, as the room filled with a eerie silence.
"What?"
A teary, wobbling voice asked. Sarah sat in her husband's lap, tears falling down her face. Her baby was getting abused and she didn't know. She felt like the world's worst mom, She looked at each boy, hoping one of them would say differently, but the boys all nodded thier heads yes, at her question.
Axel looked up at everyone , before contiueing.
"We found out yesterday, it pissed me off that a guy could be so stupid as to beat on a girl and the fact that it was Kari, just pushed me over the edge. So I found Brody beat the shit out of him,After awhile the guys managed to pull me off, Brody said some stupid shit, The girls stormed past us, they exchange words, we all turned to leave, Brody yelled some more stupid shit , the girls turned and hit him then we left."
Axel finished in a rush and plopped back down between Theo and Den. The adults sat in a stunned silence, as the boys looked at each other, as if in a wordless conversation.
The adults were stunned, one of thier own was in trouble and they didnt notice. Each adult was in verous states of grief, ranging from anger to sarrow. Caleb looked over to the boys, a sense of pride, anger and wonder, cross his face as he begins to speak to them.
"Thank you for being honest, now if you boys will excuse us, we have some things to discuss."
Reid stops Axel as he was leaving,
"Just because you had a good reason, doesn;t mean your not in trouble, will discuss your punishment later."
Reid says to Axel, who just nodds his head, as he fallows the other boys out of the the younger boys are out of the room, the remaining people, fall into silence, each wondering how much they truely know about thier children.
-with Kari-
Kari was zooming down the back roads, when she felt her phone buzz, indicating a miss call. She picks it up, flips it open, seeing it was her dad ignores it and contiues to speed down the curvey road way.
