Hey you guys, sorry this is coming to yall so late. But I've been doing so much with color guard, school and fighting a horrible case of writer's block. Christmas break for me is coming in about a week and then I may have more time to write. And with no further a do, here is Chapter 6! Oh wait here is one more thing, I don't own anything Kickin' It related. Now, here is Chapter 6! :)
Chapter 6
Nobody's POV:
Kim's house phone blared across the house. "Jerry! Do you know what time it is? I just got Maci to go to sleep and-"
"Kim, it's not Jerry," Mika whispered into the phone.
"Oh Mika, sorry about that, but why are you whispering? Are Jerry and the kids asleep?" Mika nodded her head, but realized Kim couldn't see her. "Ya, that and I spoke to Jerry about what happened with you before Jack's big break and what happened afterwards too."
Kim sat there stunned. "Mika! Why would you do that?" She heard Mika sigh and let out a couple of choked sobs. "Mika sweetie, is everything alright? Why are you crying?" Question after question just pouring out of Kim's mouth.
Mika let out a couple more sobs before she calmed down some and answered. "Jerry wasn't acting right at dinner tonight," Mika started.
"How?" Mika let out another soft sigh before continuing.
"For starters, he didn't even touch his food, and it was tacos, his favorite-"
"Wait?! Jerry didn't eat tacos?! Jerry always eats tacos? Mika is he ok?!"
Mika was getting slightly irritated by all the questions Kim was asking. "Kim if you'd let me finish, I could probably answer your questions. Now, as I was saying, Jerry didn't even touch his food. So when I sent the kids off to get ready for bed and asked him what was wrong, he completely broke down.
Kim, for once was speechless. She had NEVER seen Jerry cry. Even on those really tough cases where you couldn't help but shed a tear, Jerry was always there with a face of stone."Kim did you hear me?" Mika asked.
"Wha- No sorry. I kinda spaced out for a second.
Mika sighed again restarted. "Well after he cried for a good five minutes, he finally told me that the secrets he's having to keep for everyone are starting to get to him. Your's being the worst."
Kim held the phone away from her ear with her mouth agape. "How's mine the worst?" Kim asked bringing the phone back to her ear and almost screeching her question.
Mika rubbed her now sore ear and continued. "He thought of what it would feel like to be in Jack's shoes. To never know he had a child. Then years later find out about them in the worst way possible. He thought about all the things that he would have missed because he never got notice of their existence. Like their first steps, or their first words, or their first days of school. Jack never got to witness any of Maci's finest moments and it's all because you didn't tell him about her." Mika sighed, trying not to cry again. "Kim, he sat the kids down and told them that no matter what happens in life, that me and the kids will always have a special place in his heart. It's killing him Kim, and I hate watching my husband have to suffer through over some secrets."
Tears started flowing down Kim's eyes making her vision blurry and her balance unstable. She carefully walked to her bedroom and sat herself on the corner of her bed. "Oh my gosh, Mika," Kim cried tears falling faster. She felt so bad for Mika and Jerry, but she couldn't tell Jack. Then something clicked in her head. Didn't Mika say that Jerry was holding secrets for other people? "Mika," Kim said wiping her eyes, "who else is Jerry holding secrets for?"
"Um...Jack, but that's all I'm allowed to tell you."
Kim sat confused. What kind of secret was Jerry holding for Jack? "Mika," Kim whined, "please tell me. Pretty please!" Kim fumbled with the fray that was coming out on her jeans.
"Kim I can't. Jerry made me promise that I wouldn't tell and besides, it's Jack's secret. It isn't like you're going to tell him yours in exchange for his."
Kim sat there slightly shocked. Mika always told her everything no matter how bad it was. But she got to contemplating. What if she promised Mika that she would tell Jack? It probably wouldn't work, but it's worth a shot.
"What if I promised you that I would tell Jack about Maci."
Mika shook her head, she knew Kim's mind games. And she and Jerry were the only people that could get around them. "Kim, I know you better than that. You're never going to tell him if I told you.
Kim huffed angrily. She needed a new plan and quick. Luckily one came to her quickly and it was a doozy of comeback. "But you told Jerry my secret to Jerry. You owe me for spilling something that you promised me you wouldn't tell.
Mika slouched in defeat. "Crap..." She knew that Kim was smiling at her little victory which kind of angered he a little. "Ugh, fine you win this round, but I'm not happy about telling you this," Mika growled while knowing that Kim was smiling on the other end.
"If Jerry finds out about this, you and I are both dead, so don't go blabbering it off to everyone." Mika paused for a moment letting the words sink into Kim's brain. "So you know that bottle blonde that we saw in the tabloids and we nicknamed her 'The Bimbo'? Well, there is a back story that we had no idea had actually happened.
Kim gave a confused look into the air. "There's a back story?"
"Ya, um, apparently it wasn't Jack's idea to go with her?"
Kim sat there dumbfounded. "He didn't have a choice in the matter?"
Mika shook her head and spoke up. "No, and apparently she got him drunk and she took him to his hotel while he was drunk, and that's why she was seen entering and leaving his hotel." Mika heaved a sigh, because she thought she had just dodged a major bullet, but the gears in Kim's head started turning.
"But how come all of the pictures of her leaving the hotel were taken in the morning?"
There was a heavy pause from Mika before she spoke up. "Damn it!" Mika rarely ever cussed, so this must be bad... "I was really hoping to not have to explain this part. Wow...um... How to put this?"
Mika paused again before she spoke back up. "So when she got Jack drunk, it wasn't because he did it on his own accord, she had tricked him into drinking four or five beers by never letting him fully finish a bottle. She had gotten him so drunk, that he had completely blacked out the rest of that night. And unbeknownst to him, Bimbo had gotten him to do something in his state that, according to Jerry, tore him up completely.
Kim paled. She'd heard about this kind of thing before. Girls and guys would get someone so drunk, that they could get them to do anything. "She got him to...and he didn't even remember it afterwards? That's his big secret? Why didn't he tell me?"
Mika shook her head. "It happened not to long after you guys' three year anniversary. He was scared of what your reaction would be. And then when Bobby Wasabi called him and offered him those movies, he saw an easy way out. And he took it."
Kim was stunned. She felt so bad for Jack, but she still couldn't shake the anger she had held on to for so many years towards him. "Mika, I have to go. Hopkins is wanting all of us in tomorrow for a briefing on a case that we might have to go to in Louisiana."
Mika whimpered. She hated when Jerry had to go on far away cases where she could't make sure he was ok if he got hurt. "Ok, but Kim, you need to tell him. He deserves to be a part of his daughter's life."
Kim huffed in frustration and hung up. She walked to the living room and did her evening rituals. She locked the front door and turned off the porch light. Then she checked the windows to make sure they were all shut and securely locked before turning off the remainder of the lights in the house. She picked up her gun off of the table near the hallway and walked to her bedroom. She turned out the lights, walked to her nightstand, put her gun in the drawer, and climbed into bed.

Unknowns' POVs:
Back in Florida a man sat in a big office chair facing a window in a darkly lit office. His two partners stood in front of his desk ready to spill information to their dominant partner. "Have you two idiots found out anything useful about the whereabouts of Jack Brewer?"
One of the guys stepped forward. He was tall, about 6' 4" with light brown hair down to his shoulders. "Ya we did. And guess where he is? Back home in the sweet comfort of Seaford. And as an added bonus, he's staying with his ex Kim Crawford."
The guy in the desk smiled evilly. "Seaford huh? Well boys, I think it's about time we spend a little time back home?"
"Home?! Will I get to see my mommy," The slightly shorter guy said. He had curly brown hair and was about as smart a piece of paper. The only reason he kept him around was his excellent fighting skills.
But before he could answer, the long haired guy smacked him in the back of the head and said to him, "No you ding bat. We're going for a job and that job is our main priority. No time for mommys."
The guy in the chair folded his hands in his lap. "Get your things together. We are leaving tomorrow afternoon."
The curly one looked at the chair confused. "Why not tomorrow morning?"
Office chair guy threw his arms up in the air in frustration. "Because I need my beauty sleep dang it! Now go before you're who I come after you next."
Both of their eyes widened and then they fled from the room and left the man sitting in his office chair tapping his fingers together while he smiled and laughed evilly.
And there was Chapter 6. Who is this guy and what does he want with Jack? I can't wait for Chapter 7! :)
