SPH: Hey-o! I hope you've been enjoying the chapters! Now, I'm gonna throw in a few question in this part of the authors note because I decided that I wouldn't have questions in the last two so I want to get the questions from them out of the way. What was the idea Jim had about why he stared at Kate? Why couldn't he convince himself Kate would be okay? Who is this him Kate wants to be with her when she sails through the stars? What happened the night of the fire? How did it start? How did Kate know about the secret compartment under her bed? Okay, time for the disclaimer! I do not own Treasure Planet or any of its content, they belong to Disney, I only own Kate, all other OC's, the story, and the plot. On with the story!
Chapter 4: Two Weeks Later
Jim took a sip from his glass, he was on break from helping at the Inn, things had changed since graduation, Silver was now the main chef due to just about every customer loving his cooking, B.E.N. was probably the best waiter ever and often provided some form of comical relief, Sarah took care of housekeeping, while Jim took on the odd jobs as well as taking turns with B.E.N. for checking people in. the Inn was also busier than ever after word of Silver's cooking spread. Jim; however couldn't relax, and not because of the Inn having so many customers. It had been two weeks since he and Kate graduated and Kate had yet to visit. He was starting to worry, from what he remembered about her from the Academy Kate never broke a promise and never took this long.
Just then the doors flew open revealing Mrs. Myers.
Jim groaned and turned away from her, he didn't want to listen to any of her nonsense she always brought.
"Oh, hello Mrs. Myers, is there anything we can do for you?" Sarah asked.
"I heard that your new chef's cooking is the best in the city, I wanted to judge it myself." Mrs. Myers said.
"Oh, of course, please come this way." Sarah said.
She lead her over to a table and motioned for B.E.N. to come over.
"So, how is Kate?" Sarah asked.
"Awful!" Mrs. Myers cried.
Jim looked at her wanting to know what was wrong.
"You'd think that Academy would have taught her discipline and respect, but she's nothing more than a wretched insolent brat! No respect for anyone! She's so unruly and improper!" Mrs. Myers cried.
Jim growled and gripped his glass so hard it shattered while somehow not cutting him or leaving him with shards of glass in his hand.
"Jim!" Sarah yelled.
"Yeah yeah, I'm on it!" Jim cried grabbing the broom and dustpan.
"Well, I think I'm getting close to breaking the girl from her wicked ways." Mrs. Myers continued as Jim swept up the glass, "But I don't think I can ever fully cure her of them."
Jim growled as he dumped the glass in the trash.
"Why do you say that?" Sarah asked.
"Well, when she was eight she murdered her father." Mrs. Myers said, "Set the house on fire and killed him!"
"Shut up!" Jim yelled.
The entire room looked at him.
"Kate would never do that!" Jim yelled, "I know her! She loved her father! She'd never kill him!"
"You watch your mouth boy! You know nothing about that girl!" Mrs. Myers cried.
"I know you make her life so horrible she wishes she didn't exist!" Jim yelled, "I know you're minds stuck in the previous century! I know Kate better than anyone! She'd never kill someone unless necessary!"
"James Pleiades Hawkins!" Sarah yelled.
Jim just ran out of the room and upstairs.
"No wonder Kate hates that woman!" Jim cried, "I mean, who does she think she is? Kate would never kill anyone, especially her father! And Kate? Wicked? I know she can be a brat, but she's got a heart of gold!"
"Heart of gold, heart of gold." Morph repeated nodding.
"I think I'm close to breaking her of her wicked ways." Jim said imitating Mrs. Myers, "Oh please! Kate's not wicked nor is she ever gonna be broken."
He ran his hands through his hair and grabbed his solar surfer.
"Come on Morph, I need to get out of here and let off some stream, wanna join me?" he asked.
Morph nodded and flew into his pocket.
Jim climbed on the roof and took off. He flew all around the city sometimes pulling daredevil tricks and avoiding restricted areas. The last thing he needed was to tarnish his new record.
"Whoo-hoo!" he cried as he zoomed through the sky.
He was feeling much better and was ready to head back. Turning around he looked down and spotted a girl with curly reddish-orange hair in the shopping district.
"I know that mop of hair anywhere." He said heading for it.
Kate sighed as she walked through the street. She'd just finished shopping for groceries and was now heading home. Her mother expected her to have dinner made by the time she got back.
'Thank god this is an ankle length dress or I'd have landed flat on my face multiple times and have to buy more of everything.' She thought as she got shoved by another random person.
"Kate!" Jim's voice cried.
Kate turned around to see Jim holding his solar surfer and making his way over to her.
"Oh, Jim, nice to see you." Kate said.
"Wow, you in a dress for a nonformal occasion, never thought I'd see the day that happened." Jim said.
"Shut up." Kate said.
"What's wrong? I started getting worried when you didn't stop by the Inn." Jim said.
"My mother's controlling my whole life." Kate said, "She's making me act like a proper lady."
"Sorry about that." Jim said.
"She's the worst if I so much as put one toe out of line she makes me act as a servant in my own home or finds some other way to punish me." Kate continued.
"Yeah, she said she was convinced she was close to breaking you and your 'wicked ways' back at the Inn." Jim said.
"Yeah, well I need to get home and make dinner before mom gets home." Kate said.
"Is that why you're here?" Jim asked.
"Yeah," Kate said, "why are you here?"
"I needed to let off some steam so I went solar surfing and then I saw you were here." Jim said, "Mind if I walk with you?"
"No, I could use the company." Kate said, "So, why'd you need to let off steam?"
"Well, it was either that or attack your mother for being a bitch and accusing you of murdering your dad by setting the house on fire." Jim said.
"I didn't start that fire," Kate said, "I wasn't even in the room it started in, my parents' bedroom."
"I know," Jim said, "I flipped out and yelled at your mom that you'd never do that, I just couldn't stand by and say nothing while she said that stuff about you."
"Thanks," Kate said, "I highly doubt it will make much difference."
"I wish I knew how to help you get her off your case." Jim said.
"There isn't any way anyone could get me out of this mess." Kate said.
'Not anyway either of us would like.' She mentally added.
"There's got to be some way." Jim said.
"I'm sorry Jim, but there isn't." Kate said stopping outside her house, "I'll see you later."
She went inside trying not to cry as Jim stood outside wishing he could do something for her.
