Hey Guys thanks for all the cool reviews!=D In this chapter you uncover a lot more about Roxy! Hope you like!=D-JJ

At Seaford High...

Jack was at his locker casually putting his math books away from second period. He was still thinking about how weird Roxy had acted before she left the Dojo and how she seemed to be always so uncertain. Jack knew something was up and he was going to find out.
He thought: 'Could it be family problems?' 'No Jack remember you just met her a day ago, get to know her don't make up stuff in your head.' He then was instantly thrown out of his thoughts by a force flipping him to the closed locker next to his. He looked down in shock to find a stressed out Donna gripping his shirt with both hands as hard as she could without breaking her perfectly manicured nails.

Donna exclaimed, "Jack! You have to protect me!"

Jack looked at her confused and exclaimed, "What! Why!"

Donna said, "Because I got ATTACKED A DAY AGO AT THE MALL; I DIDN'T GO TO SCHOOL YESTERDAY BECAUSE I WAS SCARED THE GUY WOULD ATTACK ME AGAIN, BUT MY MAID MADE ME COME TODAY!"

Jack snapped, "Calm down and let go of ME!

Donna glared at him and snapped, "Not unless you promise to be my bodyguard!"

Jack shook his head and asked, "Why didn't you just have your dad call in some for you."

Donna answered, "Because he's on a business trip in Europe and he told me if I called him I wouldn't get a car when I turn 16!" "And I really want a car when I turn 16!" She said this while shaking him with her grip tightening on his shirt.

Jack exclaimed, "Stop shaking me, Donna!"

She instantly stopped shaking him but still kept her tight grip on his shirt. She then asked sweetly, "So will you be my bodyguard or not?"

Jack rolled his eyes annoyed and said, "Yeah right you're just doing this for attention!"

Donna looked at him incredulously and exclaimed, "No, I'm not making this up!" "Some ninja guy attacked me screaming at me to tell him where this girl is he's looking for; which I had no frigg'in idea who he was talking about!" As Donna said this her hands even gripped Jack's brown shirt harder.

Jack retorted, "Really? Then why didn't you call the umm...I don't know...cops?"

Donna exclaimed, "I did, once I ran away from the guy when he got distracted by some really badly dressed girl who started to talk to him, I ran to a pay phone since the guy who attacked me made me accidentally drop my iPhone and it got broken in pieces but; as soon as I said ninja they laughed and hung up on me!" "I even went all the way down to the station and risked my life taking the bus their but they laughed at me and gave me money for a bus ride home!" "I posted it on Facebook yesterday but everyone is saying I'm crazy and even my friends won't talk to me!"

Jack responded, "Oh."

Donna commented clearly annoyed, "Uh...Yeah."

Jack responded, "Well sorry Donna but I'm not really the bodyguard type."

Donna tightened her hands even more into his shirt glaring at him deadly.

Jack winced and yelled in pain, "Ow ow ow! Donna your nails are digging into my skin!"

Donna glared and snapped, "Good!" "Now Jack if I kiss you will you be my bodyguard!"

Jack's chocolate brown eyes widened, "He exclaimed no, Donna!" "Now let go of me I think your nails cut me!"

Suddenly, Donna went in and kissed Jack. He didn't expect it and ended up hitting his head against the locker. He tried to get away but; when he tried her nails just went deeper into his skin causing him to wince in pain. Then Jack heard Kim yell, "What the heck is going on here?"

Donna then pulled away from Jack at the sound of Kim's voice and quickly let her grip off of him. Jack watched as Kim glared deadly at Donna and him as it looked like steam was coming out of her ears.

Kim snapped, "Can you tell me Jack what you and Donna are doing?"

Jack started, "Uh...well...uh…"

Kim snapped, "You know what forget it!" "I-I thought you said you were over her!" "Why would y-you lie to me?"

Jack exclaimed, "I didn't Donna just grabbed me and sunk her stupid manicured nails into my skin and kissed me; I didn't expect it at all!" "I tried to fight off her tight grip on me but she would just keep digging her nails into my skin; which I think I'm bleeding now!"

Kim then walked over towards Donna once Jack was done telling her the story and glared daggers into her face.

Donna glared back at her and said sarcastically, "What is a loser like you gonna do?"

Jack thought: 'Wow Donna you just made your death wish.' 'You are one stupid girl.'

Kim snapped with a harsh tone, "If you ever talk, touch, or even breathe on Jack again, I will make every day a living nightmare for you got it!"

Donna then became scared of the honey blonde headed girl who had a black belt so she ran far away to save her life.

Jack chuckled at his angry honey blonde headed friend as she glared daggers at Donnas' back watching; her run away.

Jack laughed, "And you say I'm the over protective one."

Kim glared at him and snapped, "You're the one who couldn't get away from that prissy's kiss and you're the frigg'in best martial artist at our Dojo!" Kim pointed her finger on his chest and said, "Unless you enjoyed it."

Jack thought he saw hurt and jealousy flash through the blonde's deep brown eyes but shrugged it off. He then exclaimed, "What! I did not! I want to kiss y-y..." Jack stopped talking as he realized what he was about to say

Kim asked slightly confused asked, "Who?"

Jack quietly and quickly responded, "Uh...no one let's just go meet up with the guys in the auditorium."

Kim asked, "What? Why, are we going there?"

Jack chuckled at Kim's confused look and answered, "Remember there's some big assembly today, during 3rd period."

Kim replied, "Oh right I knew that!"

Jack rolled his eyes and retorted, "Sure you did."

Kim just rolled her eyes at the brunette walking beside her and said, "Let's find Roxy first before we head that way."

Jack said, "Sure." Um...Kim about Roxy don't you think she acts a little strange?"

Kim asked, "What do you mean Jack?"

Jack replied, "I mean like yesterday when she said her dad was at the mall to pick her up she sounded like she was lying to us and she look worried too."

Kim commented, "Well now that I think about it yesterday after you guys ran to homeroom I turned around to find her starring at her phone like it was a bomb or something and then she told me it was just her mom but it sounded like she was lying."

Jack said, "See that's exactly what I mean!"

Kim commented, "Well we still don't know her that well so don't do anything stupid, Jack."

Jack responded offended, "Hey that was one time!" "One time!"

Kim just smirked at him.

As they were walking down the empty hall since everybody else went to the assembly they heard yelling coming from where Roxy's locker was at. Kim and Jack wanting to know who was yelling hid behind a trash can that was by the stairs. They looked over the trash can to find Roxy standing by her opened locker and yelling into a red razr phone. Kim and Jack looked at each other wondering what was going on but decided to listen to Roxy's yelling.

Roxy yelled, "I'm never going back to that place of torture and that's final!"

Jack quizzically said, "Place of torture?"

Kim shushed him.

Roxy then yelled, "You know what I don't care if you take away everything I have I will never give up and that's a promise!" "I'm doing just great and you could personally tell Jake from me that he should go to hell for all I care!"

Roxy then stopped and listened to the person on the other side of the line with an angry, irritated look on her face. Kim and Jack jumped when she suddenly yelled, "Well sending Teo to get me is being an idiot!" "Why the heck would you send an idiot like Teo to do your dirty work?" She then stopped and listened to the voice on the other side of the line.

Roxy then yelled, "Yeah well you're a bigger one!" With that she slammed her phone shut threw it into her backpack and angrily slammed her locker door shut and slid herself down to the floor. She then put her head down in her arms in frustration.

She then whined, "Ugh...why won't he just leave me alone and stop taunting me."

Jack then quietly got up from behind the trash can watching Roxy just in case she suddenly pops her head up from her arms. He then held out his hand to Kim and she took it as she stood up. Kim then whispered in Jack's ear, "What should we do?"

As Kim said these words Jack felt warm tingles on the skin of his ear; but didn't acknowledge it at all. He responded, "Let's just go over to her and see what happens and no lying for you." Kim rolled her eyes as she walked with Jack over to their petite frustrated friend. They stood right in front of her and looked down at her; she was sitting there with her blonde messy waves slinged over her head, she was wearing a tight black tank top and jean shorts that we're finger tip length to be appropriate for the school's dress code. Jack finally spoke up and said, "Hey."

Roxy jumped straight up on her feet into a fighting stance startled by Jack's voice. Jack and Kim both cocked an eyebrow at her looking at her weirdly. Roxy once realizing it was just Jack and Kim she quickly came out of her fighting stance and said awkwardly, "Uh...sorry guys you...uh scared me."

Jack still looking at her weirdly said awkwardly, "Okay..."

They all just stood there in an awkward silence not knowing what to say at all.
Roxy then looked them up and down giving them a strange look. She then stopped and starred down at them. Jack and Kim both caught this. They then both looked at Roxy confused. Roxy looked up and caught their look; she cocked an eyebrow at them in confusion and asked, "What?"

Kim said, "Why were you looking at us strangely?"

Roxy responded, "Oh because you guys never told me you were together."

Jack was about to speak but Kim beat him to it.

Kim snapped, "Not to be mean or anything but um...why would you think that?"

Roxy looked at Kim like she was the dumbest person on earth. She responded, "Uh...because you guys are holding hands."

Once Roxy said this Kim and Jack both looked down to find that they were still holding hands from when Jack helped Kim up from the floor. They quickly pulled apart with their cheeks blushing with embarrassment. Kim quickly said, "We're not together."

Roxy just nodded her head slowly and said awkwardly, "Okay whatever you say..." "So why are you guys here?"

Kim was about to respond but Jack elbowed her in the ribs. She glared at Jack. He gave her a look that said 'don't talk.' Kim just glared at him in response.

Jack said, "Uh we heard you yelling so we decided to see what was up.
Roxy's eyes then widened but went quickly back to normal. Jack and Kim both looked at each other saying 'what the heck was that?'

Roxy replied, "Oh well...I was just uh...talking to my...dad." "We sort of uh...got in a fight over the phone so yeah..."

Jack thought: 'That conversation was so weird though. 'She's totally lying.' He then looked down at Kim and knew from the look on her face that she knew Roxy was lying too.

Kim said, "Oh well are you okay?"

Roxy nodded and replied, "Yeah I'm fine." "So where did everyone go?"

Kim and Jack's eyes suddenly widened in horror realizing that they had forgotten why they came over here in the first place. Jack exclaimed, "Oh crud we're late for the assembly!"
Jack and Kim both ran off with Roxy running behind them. When they got to the auditorium doors Jack threw the doors open with a loud bang that's when the whole high school turned around to look at the three teenagers who were late. Roxy face palmed and Kim stood their embarrassed with Jack. The three teens were hoping to get in quietly without anyone noticing, but that of course didn't happen.

Mr. Squires their principal who was average height, wearing glasses, and a neat suit; glared at the three teens from the stage. He then spoke through the mic,"Anderson, Crawford, and Greene, your late you know what that means." "Detention!"

The three teenagers sighed and walked awkwardly over to the seats Jerry, Eddie, and Milton had saved for them. Jack sat next to Jerry; Kim sat next to Jack while Roxy sat next to Kim. Jerry then tapped Jack on the shoulder. Jack asked, "What?"

Jerry exclaimed quietly, "Awesome you guys got detention; I did too!" "You guys will have so much fun at party Jerry's!" Jack just rolled his eyes; being use to Jerry's enthusiasm for detention. Jerry then whispered quietly while Mr. Squires was talking to the Juniors about their class trip, "Man did you have a good time with the girls or what." Jack looked at him confused and asked, "What do you mean?" Jerry snickered at his confused friend and said, "Well what else would have taken you guys so long to get here."

Jack finally realizing what Jerry meant quietly exclaimed, "I am not a player and I would never do that okay, now shut up before I punch you!" Jerry then didn't speak another word. Jack then turned his attention back towards his principal.

Mr. Squires said, "Alright, now for the Freshman; there will be a lock in this Friday night at the school of course Marge and I will be there to make sure nothing hectic will happen during it and the lock in will be in the cafeteria from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m. You don't have to go if you don't want to and make sure you'll be out of here by 9:01 a.m. Now that will be all for the events so far happening this year, you are dismissed, thank you."

Everyone was about to get up and leave the auditorium to head to their 4th period but they were all stopped by a high pitched screech yelling, "Wait! Everyone!"

Kim knew that screech from anywhere it was Donna Tobin. Donna Tobin quickly ran over to the stage and took the mic from Mr. Squire's hand. He was about to snap at her but Donna exclaimed through the mic, "Wait everyone I know you guys I'll think I'm crazy about being attacked by a ninja guy and you guys all think that it's just a stunt for me to get attention, but it isn't and I have proof!"

Jack and Kim muttered, "Oh God."
Jerry looked at Jack confused. Jack mouthed, "Long story."
Jerry just nodded his head.

Donna then said through the mic, "I have a tape that I got Truman to get from his dad's office at the mall earlier before homeroom." "It shows me getting attacked by a guy and some girl showing up." Instantly, Roxy jumped on top of her seat and shouted, "Oh really prove it," not caring about the stares she was getting from the whole high school.

Donna snapped into the mic, "I will tomboy as soon as you sit your
butt down!" Roxy glared at her and plopped herself back down on the seat.
Donna yelled, "Truman put the screen down and show the tape I ain't paying you for nothing!" Truman quickly did this and a black and white picture of part of the mall filled the screen.

It showed Donna walking past a closed Starbucks gabbing on the phone when suddenly some guy dressed as a ninja came out of nowhere and grabbed her by the waist. Donna screeched, "Get your hands off me or my daddy will sue your ninja but off!" T he guy just ignored her and threw her up against the wall and started yelling at her he was saying, "Tell me where she is and I'll put you down!" Donna exclaimed with a terrified look "Who the heck are you talking about?" The guy yelled, "Tell me where Blackstar is!" Donna screeched, "I don't know anybody named Blackstar!"

Then a girl came running into the picture she looked 14, she was wearing a tight white tank top that showed her belly button, black spandex Nike shorts, Nike sneakers, she had her hair up in a messy bun and a black mask that went over her eyes. The girl exclaimed, "Hey! Put her down she actually has a life unlike you Flash!"

Instantly, the guy dropped a terrified Donna, who quickly ran away in fright. Now just the girl and the guy Flash were on the screen. Flash said, "Well I haven't seen you since when you ran away from the fam." The girl sneered sarcastically, "Fam! You call that a family that place is a prison and you know it!" Flash said, "Come on you can't run from us forever." The girl then glared at the guy Flash and said, "I'm not running I'm fighting and protecting not only for me but for all the other kids out there!" "Oh, really Flash sneered, "Than fight!"

Flash tried to hit her in the stomach but the girl with her quick reflexes ducked and skimmed her foot underneath his feet causing him to fall over. Flash quickly jumped up from the ground and tried to punch her again but the girl caught his fist and flipped him she then pinned him to the ground. The guy Flash exclaimed, "How…when…did you get so skilled and strong?" "When you left you were a yellow belt." The girl laughed and exclaimed, "I don't need belts to tell me how good I am and never underestimate me!" She then jumped off of the guy and yelled, "Now get out of here and run back to your idiot father!" Flash got up and with a flash he was gone. The girl then quickly ran away out of sight.

That's when Truman stopped the tape and turned the projector off. Donna then exclaimed into the mic, "See tomboy I wasn't lying and theirs your proof!"

Everyone turned to look at Roxy to see what she would say but she just sat there shaking in her seat in shock. Kim and Jack were both the only ones who seemed to notice since everyone else just turned their attention back to where Donna was standing on the stage.

Donna then snapped into the mic, "Speechless now aren't we tomboy!" "Now I will be bringing this tape to the police station after school, so if anyone touches this tape they will be speaking with my lawyers!" She then added sweetly, "Thank you, oh and thank you Mr. Squires for not taking the mic from me."

Mr. Squires then took the mic and spoke into it, "Oh no need to thank me Donna because you just earned yourself detention today after school with Martinez, Crawford, Anderson, and Greene have fun!" "Seaford high school please head to your 4th period now thank you."

Donna stood there in shock while the rest of the high school walked out of the auditorium to their next period. The guys quickly ran out not wanting to be trampled by the crowd of highschoolers. Kim ran behind them but stopped when she looked behind her and found Roxy nowhere in sight. She then quickly ran back to their sits and found Roxy not shaking anymore but sitting in the seat in shock.

Kim said, "Uh…Roxy is everything okay?"

Roxy then jumped out of her seat into a fighting stance but once she realized it was just Kim she said, "Uh…yeah sorry you had scared me."

Kim thought: 'Weird.' 'Maybe she has trust issues or something.'

Kim asked with curiosity, "So, do you always jump into a fighting stance when someone scares you?"

Roxy answered nervously, "Yeah, I know its weird but I've had a bad past."

Kim looked at her with concern and asked, "Well do you want to talk about it?"

Roxy shook her head and replied, "Nah, I'm okay it will just bring back bad memories."

Kim nodded her head and decided to switch the subject to something more comfortable, "So what do you want to do since we have free period now?" "The rest of the guys have class; so we could have some girl time."

Roxy shook her head and said, "Nah, sorry Kim but I'm not… feeling so well maybe some other time…." "I think I'll go head to the nurse."

Kim frowned at the petite girl's answer she then muttered, "Yeah that's what they always say."

Roxy heard her mutter something and asked, "What?"

Kim looked up and said, "Nothing." She then walked away with a frown on her face and walked out of the now empty auditorium.

Roxy frowned she knew the girl was different and didn't get along with the other girls just like she didn't but she knew that there was nothing she could do; if she wanted to not only protect herself but also her and the Wasabi Warriors. Roxy then sighed as she shuffled slowly out of the auditorium doors feeling horrible for bailing on a friend she finally had but probably will lose in the end.

Line Break

Lunchtime…

Kim walked through the cafeteria doors and took her seat at the lunch table next to Jack like she always did. Ever since 4th period she just thought about Roxy and how weird she's been acting and how she lied to her and Jack earlier. Also, during free period she had walked by the nurse's office to see if Roxy was there but she wasn't and Kim even asked the nurse if she had shown up; but the nurse said she never had a girl named Roxy Greene come into her office. That's when Kim boiled with anger she couldn't believe Roxy had lied to her again; she wanted to confront her but after walking around the school for the rest of 4th hour she decided not to obviously something was going on with Roxy and she was going to find out but first she was going to talk to Jack.

Kim just played with her salad she brought from home; with her fork. She wasn't angry anymore at Roxy but upset that for some reason Roxy didn't trust her or the other Wasabi Warriors. Kim felt the presence of the guys sitting down at the table but didn't even look up she just kept fiddling with her salad. She definitely didn't want to see Roxy right now.

Jack exclaimed, "Kim, Kim, KIM!"

Kim's head slowly looked away from her salad and she looked at Jack and asked, "What?"

Jack said, "I asked if you were okay you seem upset."

Kim starred into the loving and concerned deep chocolate brown eyes of Jack Anderson. She thought: 'Aw, that's so sweet he cares about me.'

Kim replied, "Yeah why wouldn't I be fine?"

Jack said, "I don't know you've been fiddling with your salad for like ten minutes straight and haven't even said a word to anyone when we came to the table."

Kim sighed and said, "Look Jack I'll tell you later okay."

Jack replied uncertain, "Okay…" He thought: 'I'll just leave her alone and let her talk when she's ready.'

Roxy then came to the table with a tray of mystery meat and took her seat.

Jack asked, "So Roxy why were you late?"

Roxy replied, "Oh…uh…because I was at the nurse's office I wasn't feeling too good."

Kim thought: 'There she goes lying again really what's her problem.'

Jack said, "Oh well I'm guessing your better now."

Roxy responded, "Yeah…"

Jack commented, "Well I wouldn't eat that mystery meat on your tray if you want to keep feeling better."

Roxy instantly dropped the fork that she was about to stick into the weird meat and gave the food a disgusted look.

Jack laughed with the guys at her reaction. Kim just sat there and glumly fiddled with her salad. Then Donna suddenly burst through the doors of the cafeteria and shrieked, "Who took my tape!" "Fess up now whoever you are!"

Jack then stood up from his chair and asked, "Donna what are you talking about?" "We're trying to eat here!"

Donna walked straight up to Jack and snapped in his face, "Shut up Jack! I just told you that someone stole the tape of me getting attacked a day ago at the mall!" "Someone somehow stole the tape from my locker and whoever it is; is going to pay by my wrath!"

Jack rolled his eyes at the angry girly girl and just sat back down in his seat not wanting to deal with her. Donna then looked at Jack's table full of Wasabi losers to find Roxy sitting there boringly playing with the school's mystery meat. Donna marched over to her unnoticed and slammed her head into the meat.

All the Wasabi Warriors looked up at the noise to find Roxy lifting her head up from the mystery meat and Donna standing over her smirking. Roxy stood up and glared at the drama queen not caring at the moment that gross food was on her face or in her messy waves of blonde hair.

Roxy yelled, "Why the heck did you just do that? I mean what's your frigg'in problem? What did I ever do to you?"

Donna snapped, "You stole my tape tomboy that's what you did!" "You somehow broke into my locker and stole it!"

Roxy snapped, "First of all my name's not tomboy it's Roxy! Second of all you can't just go around accusing people without any proof!" "And what would I want with your tape?"

Donna exclaimed, "I don't care who the heck you are! I can accuse whoever I want and you could do anything with that tape!"

Roxy then got in her face and snapped, "If that's the way you want it then fine!"

She then threw her backpack at Donna and said, "Go ahead look through it you won't find anything in it."

Donna glared at the tomboy and plopped the backpack down onto the Wasabi Warriors lunch table unzipping it; to start to look through it.

Donna pulled something out that was a leather black journal she smirked evilly at it. Donna said, "Oh looky here is this tomboy's diary? Maybe she's not as tough as we all saw her to believe."

Roxy quickly snatched the journal away from Donna and said threateningly, "It's not a diary, its none of your frigg'in business! Now since you didn't find the tape leave, 'because I don't want to see your face!"

Donna glared deadly at the petite girl as she quietly picked up some black dragon's opened bottle of red Kool Aid from their table without them noticing and while Roxy was distracted putting all the stuff away; Donna had took out of her bag she poured all of the red Kool Aid over Roxy everywhere.

Roxy was drenched in it from the top of her head to the bottom of her dirty Nike sneakers. The whole time the teens in the cafeteria were sitting there watching the whole scene unfold in silence. The teens were waiting for Roxy's outburst or for her to run out of the cafeteria. They were surprised to find when Roxy turned away from her backpack a smirk on her face instead of tears. Donna looked at the girl dumbfounded by her reaction.

Roxy then snapped at her, "Is that the best you've got girlie! 'Because that's pathetic if it is! I've been through worse; you'll never make me crack so stop trying, okay!"

The whole cafeteria was speechless by the girl's confidence in an embarrassing situation like this. No one had ever beat Donna at her own game. Ever since Donna made Kim who was the toughest girl in the freshman class; had made her break down a few months ago they never thought that someone would beat her at her own game but Roxy did.

The Wasabi Warriors looked at Roxy in shock now realizing that maybe there was more than one side of Roxy Greene. Kim thought: 'Wow maybe there's more to her than I thought.' Jack thought: 'Okay this girl knows how to make herself attractive without even trying.' Jerry thought: 'I wonder what it feels like to have Kool Aid poured on you.' Milton thought: 'I have a more respect for this girl now.' Eddie thought: 'Wow she's awesome.'

Donna just starred at the tomboy in front of her dumbly. Roxy smirked at the girl's face and said, "What's wrong Donna scared that someone finally beat you at your own game? Because well I did. Now I would get out of here if I was you, your embarrassing yourself sweety."

Donna just dumbfounded walked away from the confident girl out of the lunchroom. She just couldn't believe that the new girl beat her at her own game and has only been here for like three days now. Donna knew she was gonna get her back for this and an evil smirk played on her lips as she just thought of how.

Line Break

Detention at Seaford High 3:00 p.m.

The gang of Wasabi Warriors and Roxy stood outside the detention room; only four of them waiting to be let inside. Milton being well…Milton having to know everything kept going on about how Jack, Kim and Roxy ended up being late for the assembly.

Milton was saying, "What do you mean no reason Jack? How can you guys end up being fifteen minutes late; that doesn't make any sense at all?

The nerdy boy Milton just kept blabbing on about it like Donna always blabbing the latest gossip. Roxy thought the nerd was just a nice, smart boy when she first met him; but now she was just getting plain annoyed with him going on about the same thing and having to know everything. I'll she heard in her head was his nasally voice and it was giving her a nasty headache.

Milton then suddenly asked, "Oh and Roxy what were you doing during those fifteen minutes or was it twen—"

Roxy interrupted him snapping, "Would you just shut up! You may be the smartest kid in this high school but that doesn't mean you need to know everything about everybody! You want the truth the truth is I made Kim and Jack late I was on the phone yelling at my dad and told them to wait for me even though they knew it would make them late! Okay it's my fault now will you please be quiet your giving me a headache!"

Roxy then looked around at the five teens standing in front of her. Jack looked at her and shook his head. Jerry just gave her a disapproving look. Eddie just frowned at her. Kim was looking at the floor and that's when Roxy realized Kim had been avoiding her since the assembly. The teens just stood there in an awkward silence not knowing what to say to Roxy; but they didn't need to say a thing because, to Roxy their faces said it all. They hated her and now they always will. Milton finally broke the silence and spoke up, "And I thought Donna was mean."

The sad look on Milton's face and the words that came out of his mouth made Roxy breakdown. She couldn't believe that she just acted like the person she hated with all her heart, the person that betrayed her and her family; that made her life a living hell. Roxy broke down tears started spilling from her blue eyes they were no longer piercing or full of confidence and light, they were burned out like a wax candle. All the emotions that she was taught by the man who betrayed her to keep inside were poured out in tears. She didn't want to be her alter ego; she just wanted to be an average 14 year old girl. She wanted to join clubs, like music she always loved to sing and play guitar when she could; but she barely did anymore. With music she could pour out all her emotions and be somewhere that she dreamed should be her happy life but never will, she wanted to have real friends that she never did have and a boyfriend who wouldn't betray her; but she knew it would be too good to be true. Roxy knew she didn't have to protect these kids, but who will and when she found out the secrets the man who she had trusted; had lied to her about she made a promise to her dad that she would no matter what.

Roxy finally looked up from the floor and looked at the five teens standing in front of her. She didn't care if her eyeliner was running down her face, she didn't care about smelling like Kool Aid, she didn't care if her face was still sticky from washing off the mystery meat, and she didn't care if they watched her cry. They didn't know her; she hated lying to them she hated running off and bailing on them and everyone else; but she had to it was her job; her life.

Roxy found no one was looking at her but the floor. That's when finally Principal Squires walks through with Donna pouting behind him. Roxy quickly looks down at the floor before Donna could look at her face full of tears. Mr. Squires then unlocks the door Jack, Kim, Jerry, Donna, and Roxy slowly walk inside prepared for their hour of imprisonment in this dull gray room.

Jack, Kim, and Jerry took seats next to each other Donna just sat in the middle of one of the rows. While Roxy who was still looking at the floor and quietly crying walked to the farthest desk away from everyone else and plopped herself down gently placing her head on her arms that were folded together on the desk. None of this went unnoticed by Donna then she heard Jack, Kim, and Jerry whispering and she could here Roxy's name come up in the conversation. Donna smiled thinking: 'Even better they had a fight.'

Mr. Squires then slammed a textbook on the desk making all the kids jump strangely except for Roxy. Mr. Squires glared at the teens sitting in the room. Mr. Squires always would look kids up and down no matter if he knew them or not. He looked at Jerry first. Jerry was no threat to him and a detention regular. He then looked at Kim she was an honor student, a tough girl, who usually never got in trouble; but of course he knew one day this would happen to her if she hung around Jerry and his friends. He then looked at Jack, he was a good kid gets decent grades, he won the school's first gymnastic trophy in 15 years, and he always helped around the school when he could. He then looked at Donna, she was the popular drama queen of freshman class, she always got what she wanted whether she knew her daddy paid for it or not, she was also the bully most kids complained about; but Mr. Squires could never fix that problem since her Dad always donated money to the school. He then looked over to the back corner of the classroom to find Roxy Greene, he didn't know her that well, but he knew that when she first came, she seemed like a tough girl, who wouldn't let anyone get in her way and she was also a straight A student.

Mr. Squires then just noticed her head down on the desk and realized where she was sitting at the closest desk near the window. Mr. Squires having teachers who've run the detention complain about Jerry being a "flight risk." He wasn't quite sure whether or not Roxy Greene was, but he wouldn't except even if she was the new girl her sitting back there; trying to not be seen.

Mr. Squires exclaimed, "Roxy Greene, please pick your head up and come sit at the desk in front of me!"

Roxy thought: 'Really? Now I hope I put on waterproof eyeliner on this morning and my face isn't that red.'

Everyone turned to Roxy who still hadn't got up from her desk.

Mr. Squires said, "I'm waiting Ms. Greene."

Roxy slowly walked up to the center of the classroom and took a seat at the desk she still held her head down. She plopped herself down on the desk in the same position she was in before at the other desk.

Mr. Squires giving Roxy a disapproving look at her position crossed his arms over his chest he then said, "Ms. Greene please pick your head up and look at me unless you want detention again tomorrow."

Roxy slowly picked up her head from the desk and looked straight up at Mr. Squires. She was just glad that her wavy, messy, blonde long hair covered the sides of her face so none of her classmates in the room could see her. Mr. Squires looked down at the girl to see her face red, her eyes red and puffy; with a little eyeliner down her face. Mr. Squires thought: 'So that's why she was hiding; she was crying.'

Mr. Squires said calmly, "Roxy why don't you go wash your face off in the bathroom and come back."

Roxy smiled at her principal and mouthed a 'thank you' as she got up and left the room with her backpack in hand. Once Roxy was out the door he looked at the four teens in the room that were staring at him. Mr. Squires said, "Okay kids you know the rules, no talking, no gum chewing, no phones or other electronics during class-mean excuse me detention."

He then went and sat down at the desk and started to play Solitaire on the computer. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Jerry raise his hand. The principal sighed and said, "What do you want Jerry?"

Jerry asked, "Why are you watching us; isn't usually Mr. Baughman who does detention?"

Mr. Squires answered, "Not that it's any of your business Jerry, but he called in with the flu today so I decided to come in and watch you guys."

Jerry nodded his head.

Mr. Squires then said, "Hey Jerry is that gum your chewing good?"

Jerry exclaimed happily, "Good it's awesome! It's new it's called Chewy with a Punch I haven't been able to stop chewing it since I started its sooo-oh come on really Jerry." He said the last part by rolling his eyes at himself and throwing his hands up in exaggeration.

Mr. Squires said, "Come on Jerry spit it out oh and that's another detention tomorrow.

Jerry slowly nodded his head as he got up and went to the trash can; he spitted out his gum and sat back down in his sit.

Mr. Squires said, "Thank you."

Jerry replied, "No problem, Sir."

Then everyone in the room sat there in silence until suddenly the phone rang. Mr. Squires stopped his game of Solitaire and picked up the phone from his desk. He listened to the person on the other side of the line and said, "Okay I'll be there right away." Mr. Squires than put the phone back down on the desk and said, "Looks like there's an emergency parent meeting, I don't know how long I'll be there but you kids stay here I'm going to lock the door so please let Roxy in when she comes back. I trust you kids not to leave the room but if you do; I'll put you in Saturday detention. Then Mr. Squires pointed a finger sternly into Jerry's face saying, "Mr. Martinez if you even think about being a 'flight risk' out the window; I will call your parents and suspend you okay!"

Jerry nodded his head quickly in response.

Mr. Squires said, "Good," and left the classroom locking it.

Kim then turned around toward Jack and said, "Hey."

Jack turned around in the desk to face her and said, "Hey, so what were you saying earlier when we came into the classroom?"

Kim said, "Well after the assembly you know how Roxy and I have free period, well I asked her if she wanted to hang out and have some girl time but she bailed on me and told me she didn't feel good and that she was going to go to the nurse."

Jack said sarcastically, "Oh really so you have to hang out with Kim Crawford even if you don't feel good."

Kim punched him in the shoulder and said, "No! And would you shut up and listen! I wasn't done!"

Jack nodded telling her to continue.

Kim sighed and continued, "But after like I don't know 30 minutes of 4th period I walked past the nurse's office to see if Roxy was doing okay. I saw that Roxy wasn't inside so I figured that she had gone and left to go somewhere else. I went inside and asked the nurse if Roxy Greene had come in during the period. The nurse told me that no Roxy Greene has come to her office at all. So that's why I was really upset at lunch; I was so confused on why she lied to me." Kim then sighed and looked at Jack waiting for his comment.

After a few minutes Jack finally getting his thoughts together said, "And at lunch she said she was late because she had gone to the nurse. Do you think?"

Kim cut in, "No Jack that was definitely a lie I mean she could of but doesn't the nurse leave to go to lunch after 45 minutes into 4th period."

Jack realizing it said, "Yeah, but why would she lie to us? I don't get her at all; she doesn't seem like the type."

Kim said, "I don't know, Jack and your right she doesn't seem like the person who would lie without a reason."

Jack asked slightly confused, "What do you mean?"

Kim replied, "She's lying but it's not just to lie she's lying for a reason, Jack. She's hiding something that she doesn't want anyone to find out about." A smirk then curved on Kim's face at her next thought.

Jack saw this and said, "Uh oh what are you thinking, Kim?"

Kim said determined and looked straight into Jack's chocolate brown eyes, "You and I are going to find out what it is, no matter how long it takes."

Jack sighed at his determined honey blonde headed friend who was scaring him right now with that smirk on her face. Kim asked, "You in?"

Jack looked at her contemplating about what could happen, one they could lose Roxy as a friend, two they could find out the secret and end up helping with whatever it was, three they could try to find out what the secret is and end up making themselves look like idiots, or four they could find out the secret and end up getting themselves in danger; like what usually happened to them. Jack thought: 'What do I got to lose?' 'And anyway if I say no Kim being well…stubborn will go off by herself and who knows what could happen to her.' And I really li-no Jack you care about her as a friend and don't want anything to happen to her.'

Jack sighed and shrugged, "Sure what do I got to lose."

Kim smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek. She watched as some pink came to Jack's cheeks. Jack looked at her in surprise and asked, "What was that for?"

Kim smirked and said, "For always sticking by me no matter what. You're the only person in my life who has ever done that for me."

No one in the classroom knew what caused Jack to do this maybe it was Kim's sweet words that went through his ear or maybe it was his heart, but Jack suddenly kissed Kim. He then quickly pulled away before Kim could react once he realized what he was doing. Kim just stared at him in shock not knowing what to do or say while her cheeks turned red. Donna sat there also in shock she knew this day would come but she didn't think it'd come so soon. Jack was sitting there like an idiot looking down at himself; he felt like he was literally on fire his face burning in humiliation. There was just silence until Jerry burst out, "What the heck just happened? Oh my god come on Jerry why didn't you get that on video; now Milton, Eddie, and Roxy will never believe you!"

Kim snapped blushing in embarrassment, "Jerry shut up before I go over there and make you!"

Jerry instantly closed his mouth and looked away into outer space.

Everyone in the room then heard a knock at the door, but Kim wasn't in the mood to let Roxy in, Jerry was in his own world as usual and Jack was too humiliated to even lift his from head the floor. Donna noticing this got up and opened the door for Roxy. Donna was surprised to not see Roxy's beautiful piercing blue eyes but red puffy ones and her face was a little red too. Donna thought: 'So that's why tomboy hadn't lift her head she'd been crying. Perfect.'

Roxy looked at the girlie girl standing in front of her in horror; she quickly looked down at the floor and muttered, "Where's Mr. Squires?" Donna smirked at the upset tomboy and answered, "He had some emergency meeting so he left us in her."

Roxy said, "Oh okay…" as she slowly walked into the classroom and plopped her back pack on top of the desk while sitting down in the chair. Donna smirked as she closed the door and thought: 'This going to be fun. Time to break her even more than she's been broken. It's time to put the plan in action.'

Donna walked over and leaned herself against the teachers desk that was in front of Roxy and smirked down at her. She said in a fake sweet tone, "What's wrong Roxy? I never thought I'd ever see a tough girl like you cry. Why are you crying, tomboy?"

Roxy lifted her head from the desk and looked at Donna with her cheeks stained with tears and her puffy, blue eyes. Roxy retorted weakly, "I might be tough but I'm still human I have feelings, you know."

Donna smirked at her and quickly grabbed the petite girl's backpack off her desk and held it up in the air. Roxy's red and puffy eyes looked up at her in shock not expecting that action at all. Donna smiled at the tomboy's face still holding the backpack up in the air and snapped, "Come on tomboy show me the tough girl you are, or I'll get your journal in your backpack and read you're every little secret. I mean why should you stop me I just want to know where the new girl really came from."

At Donnas' words her mind instantly went to a flashback.

FLASHBACK

Roxy was eleven years old in a dimly lit room that had a plain wooden desk in the back with a 30 year old guy in a suit sitting at the desk. Roxy was sitting in one of the chairs that were placed in front of the desk. She was wearing a black sleeved dress that went past her knees, her hair wasn't wavy but straightened in a tight bun; with no bangs, there wasn't any make up to be seen on her face, she was wearing no shoes, but had painted black toenails and fingernails and she was sitting up straight in the chair with her hands folded together in her lap; with her piercing blue eyes looking straight ahead at the man you was sitting at the desk in front of her.

The man spoke in a scruffy voice, "What do you want Blackstar? I am a very busy man and you should know that, right Blackstar?"

Roxy a.k.a Blackstar said, "Yes sir I am very aware of that Father." She tried not to sneer at the word 'father' after she had found out all the secrets he had hid from her since she was 8 years old; Roxy was beyond furious she hated the man that she is forced to call 'father' with a burning passion in her heart. She had to act perfectly good to him or he would hurt her.

The man then said, "Well you better not waste my time. I mean you do know what happens when people waste my time." He said this while pulling out a whip from under his desk and smiling evilly at the little girl sitting nicely in front of him.

Roxy said, "Yes, I do know and I will not be wasting your time today, Father." On the outside Roxy was being a sweet little perfect girl to him, but on the inside she really just wanted to curse him out.

The man said, "Okay well what is it I don't have all day?" "And neither do you."

Roxy just sat there in the wooden chair starring her piercing eyes right through the man's heart wishing her eyes could make his heart burn in fire, but she sadly didn't have that type of power. Roxy knew deep down in her heart that she was ready no matter what happened. She had been preparing for this day two weeks ago when she found out all the secrets and she knew this was the right thing for her to do.

Roxy simply said, "I want to leave."

The man snapped the whip down on the plain wooden desk in anger hoping to scare the eleven year old girl sitting in front of him. To his surprise she didn't even flinch at the whip her piercing blue eyes just stared at him with no emotion inside them at all.

The man yelled in his scruffy voice, "What do you mean you want to leave BLACKSTAR!"

Roxy simply stated, "I want to leave this family." She then sighed and brought herself enough courage to continue, "I want to leave the Black Warriors."

The man yelled, "Why would you want to leave your family the Black Warriors?"

Roxy then snapped she had enough of acting like the perfect little girl in the family of all boys she had enough of acting like she didn't know a thing or any of the secrets when she did. She had enough of acting like she didn't hear the whispers about her and her real family around the household. She might have been innocent and vulnerable when she first joined the Black Warriors when she was 8 years old, but she was eleven now and was not the same person she was three years and four months ago. The Black Warriors always had underestimated her but after today she knew they never would again.

Roxy stood up with her fests clenched and snapped angrily at the man with her piercing blue eyes filled with hatred, "WHY! WHY! Why would I want to be part of a family full of SECRETS AND LIES!" She raised her voice at the end and knew what was going to come at her. She saw the whip come towards her face but she caught it by both hands.

Roxy glared at the bulky 30 year old man in front of her in hatred. The man was surprised not to see her lying on the old wooden floors in pain but having caught the whip. Roxy than took her chance and pulled on the whip she yelled, "This is for my real FATHER, "as she let the whip go it hit the man's left eye; a mark was left from it above and below the eye and it started to bleed. The man cursed in pain while Roxy yelled, "Never underestimate Blackstar, Roger! It will only get you in trouble!"

Roger glared down at the eleven year old Roxy and picked her up by the waist she kicked and punched but it only made him make his grip tighter around her waist. He then threw Roxy onto the wooden floor he grabbed the dress and pulled it off her; leaving her in a white tank top and spandex Nike shorts. Roxy tried to get up from the floor but she was in too much pain to lift herself. Roger noticing her struggle grabbed the whip from the floor and grabbed the bucket of black paint that he was planning to paint the room with. He poured the black paint over the whip and stood over Roxy he then pulled up the back of her shirt and whipped her back to form a shape of a star. Roxy didn't cry out in pain, she never wanted to give him that satisfaction again.

Roxy quickly scrambled off the floor in pain and ran out of the room with no emotion in her face as she passed other black warriors they looked her up and down in shock. Roxy knew that they could see the pain and torture in her eyes and that they were no longer piercing but nervous and frightened. Her best friend Jake in the Black Warriors tried to stop her to see what was going on but she just ran right past him to her room not looking back to see the concern and hurt in his green eyes that she loved. She quickly grabbed a random bag and threw some clothes and important belongings inside and then turned around to put her sneakers on when she found Jake standing in the door way looking at her in concern. She looked away from him knowing she would tell him everything if she looked into his green eyes. Roxy could hear him walking closer to her and he then pulled her into a hug. Roxy didn't cry into his chest like she thought she would instead she just stood there and took in the warmth of his hug. Roxy whispered, "You'll always be with me no matter what right Jake?" Jake answered quietly and calmly, "Of course, I will Rox forever and always." Roxy then smiled taking in the moment while she still could.

END FLASHBACK

Roxy was then snapped out of her flashback by Donnas' squeamish voice screeching, "Hey tomboy wake up!"

Roxy shook her head and said, "Sorry I was in outer space."

Donna exclaimed sarcastically, "Well apparently since I've been trying to snap you out of it for ten minutes straight!"

That's when Mr. Squires came through the classroom door. He walked in and crossed his arms over his chest; giving Donna a pointed glare. He said, "Ms. Tobin if I were you I would give Ms. Greene her backpack back and sit back down in my seat before getting another a detention. Donna quickly threw the purple Jansport backpack on top of Roxy's desk giving her a glare as she walked towards her sit and sat down. Mr. Squires said, "Thank you, Ms. Tobin and I am glad that no one decided to escape," his eyes looking in the direction of Jerry. Jerry didn't seem to notice though since he was off in his own world. Mr. Squires said happily, "Alright, five more minutes and you will all be free," as he took his sit back at the desk in front of the classroom.

Jack sat in his desk starring down at the floor in the same position he had been in since the beginning he couldn't believe that out of nowhere he had kissed his best friend Kim. It didn't make any sense to him at all why he suddenly did that. He could admit maybe he liked Kim a little bit, but he never thought he would go this far without figuring out his feelings first he was so confused. He didn't think he would ever be able to look at Kim the same way ever again his mind told him that; that would be horrible but his heart told him the opposite. His heart told him that it showed him what he's been denying the whole time his crush on the honey blonde headed girl.

Kim was sitting at the desk waiting to be let out of this prison they call detention, but to her it felt like 10 years before that would happen. Ever since Jack kissed her; her lips kept tingling and butterflies have been flying in her stomach and she couldn't stop looking at him since he hadn't looked at her since. It was so weird to her the butterflies and the tingles she had never even felt this way about a guy that went out with her before Jack came to San Jose, California. That's when Kim realized she never really dated anymore when Jack moved in; he always ended up being the friend that took her to the dances at school. She always denied not liking him but maybe that kiss did mean something her and Jack were to blind this whole time to see. All she really knew was that she was really confused.

Everyone thought Jerry was sitting in his own little world the whole time but he really was just thinking really hard…well just thinking about everything that had happened in an hour so quick. Jack kissing Kim which really confused him he thought…Kim was suppose to like Jack not the other way around, Kim not having said a word or done anything since Jack kissed her, Donna snapping at Roxy the usual…and what really confused him was Roxy crying; the toughest girl he had ever meant excluding Kim crying. The only thought that went through his head was: 'Why?'

Donna sat there dumbfounded not knowing what to do about the new tomboy. Roxy just confused her so much one minute she's laughing at her pathetic way of humiliating her then the next minute she breaks down in tears and then she gets lost in her world for 1o minutes straight, that's not just weird that's freaky. The only thing that went through her mind was: 'What's wrong with that chic?'

Roxy sat there suddenly flashbacks just kept coming and hitting her in the face like no tomorrow. They hurt her so much she wanted to cry but it felt just hopeless like she wasn't even alive anymore. She felt like she cried out all her tears and they burned out the lights that use to shine in her blue eyes, but the weird thing was that she felt like a huge load was lifted off her shoulder even though she could still feel the pain and torture in each flashback. Roxy felt like she was reliving her past and she hated every minute of it.

Finally, 5 minutes had passed and Mr. Squires held the door open for them to leave. Jerry and Donna instantly grabbed their stuff and ran out of the room of prison with Roxy right behind them. Jack and Kim both still didn't move a muscle waiting for the other to make the first move. Mr. Squires had noticed the tense filling between and Jack so he quietly slipped out of the room unnoticed. There was just an awkward silence between Jack and Kim and Kim hated it. She broke the silence, "Jack please look at me before I make you."

Jack slowly brought his head up to look at Kim who was sitting next to him. Kim smiled at him and said, "Jack you don't need to be embarrassed alright let's just be friends and act like that kiss never happened, okay."

Jack smiled at his cool best friend and said, "Thanks, Kim I'm really sorry I don't know why I did that."

Kim giggled and said, "Did what?"

Jack chuckled at her and said, "Nothing let's just go."

The two teens walked out of the classroom with their backpacks in hand in silence. It wasn't in an awkward silence but a nice silence. Jack suddenly stopped walking and looked down at the hall floor in front of him. Kim stopped with him and also looked down at the floor in confusion. They were both looking at an iPone lying on the floor with a purple case. Kim once realizing who she had seen have this phone before quickly picked it up from the floor. Jack looked at Kim slightly confused. Kim catching this look said, "This is Roxy's phone Jack, remember it's time for us to investigate."

Jack exclaimed, "Kim I didn't think you meant going through her phone, that's an invasion of privacy!"

Kim snapped, "Calm down Jack and who knows she could be planning to bomb the school."

Jack gave Kim an incredulous look and said sarcastically, "Yeah because that's what 14 year old girls hide from their friends a bomb attack."

Kim shrugged and said, "You never know."

Jack rolled his eyes and was about to snatch the phone from his honey blonde headed friend but it vibrated with a new text message. Kim and Jack both looked at the phone screen intrigued to see it was from someone named, Roger. Jack started, "Kim let's not re-." It was too late Kim was already reading the message that popped up on the phone.

NEW TEXT MESSAGE

Roger: You can't run from me BS. I and your family the BW will find you. You can't keep protecting those kids because this is the year we will get them and catch you BS. You better watch your back BS and those kids too!

After, reading the text message Kim and Jack both looked at each other confused and simultaneously exclaimed, "What the hell does this mean!"
