This chapter is dedicated to: Livy.G her reviews always inspire me!=D
Roxy was in Seaford High's lunchroom sitting at her usual table with the Wasabi Warriors eating lunch, well...only the food that appeared to be edible. She was mindlessly twirling her spoon through Marge's gunk of chocolate pudding that looked more like brown dog vomit in Roxy's eyes, but she wasn't hungry anyway, and her worries were far from trying to devour the un-edible pudding. It had been two weeks since the video of her and Jack beating up ninjas in the Dojo went viral, she was worried at first but shrugged it off thinking everyone would forget about it after a few weeks.
Boy, was she wrong.
It was the exact opposite of her hopes it had only gotten more viral. The video is not only all over the Internet but it was also all over the News. It's not the attention Blackstar was getting from the video that she was scared about, she couldn't care less about that it was the questions that started popping up online and on television even at school everyone was asking the same question since the video came out.
' Who is Blackstar?'
At the beginning they were calling her 'The Masked Girl', but last week when Jerry accidently let slip, to Donna Tobin who had cornered him in an ally in the mall and pretended to flirt with him, what her alter ego's name was…it changed in a heart-beat.
'Who is Blackstar?'
That question was the one that had Roxy worried to death. She sighed heavily and looked sadly at the gunk of pudding lying on her tray.
A voice close to her yelled her way, "Yo! Roxy! You gonna eat that pudding?"
Her eyes popped open at the sound of Jerry's loud cheerful voice; she usually loved hearing his voice it being so happy; made her smile, but today just wasn't the day, no day has been since the video.
She looked up at the Latino boy who had a goofy grin on his face, while giving him a blank stare. "Uh...nah Jerry you can have it. It's not really...the type of food that I'm able to digest." She said this calmly but quietly, taking the gunk of chocolate pudding off her tray and sliding it over to the ecstatic Latino boy sitting beside her.
Roxy forced a weak smile onto her lips as she watched, Jerry's eyes light up in glee and he exclaimed toward her. "Thanks Mamacita!" As he dug into the pudding like he hadn't eaten in days. Roxy then felt a presence of eyes on her, she looked up seeing Kim, Eddie, Milton, and Jack all staring at her with concerned eyes, ignoring the fact Jerry was eating up the pudding like a ravaged dog.
Roxy snapped, "What?" Her piercing eyes instantly snapping wide open looking around at the teenagers sitting across from her.
Jack raised his eyebrows and looked at Kim. She just shrugged and rolled her eyes at him. They both then looked back at Roxy.
Roxy thought, 'I wonder if they'll ever let me in on their secret language of looks, glares, and eye rolls…?Nah…its probably one of their lovebird things.'
After a few seconds, Jack finally spoke up, "You haven't been yourself lately, Roxy. What's going on?" He looked at her with an intensity of concern in his chocolate brown eyes, Roxy loved how he was so loyal and cared so much about his friends, but she internally frowned, feeling the guilt strike up in her stomach, knowing she would have to lie; like she had been doing for the last three years. She hated lying to the Wasabi Warriors especially Jack and just turning cold on him all of a sudden when, really it wasn't his fault she had trust issues it was her own fault.
Her fault for being so blind so—naïve.
She couldn't help but laugh hysterically inside as she thought, 'Whats going on?' Oh...let's see Jack? I'm in a viral video that can destroy the identity of my alter ego I've been hiding for years. Oh...right I didn't tell you! Well, guess what! I'm Blackstar. Hahaha…yeah. '
Roxy shrugged, acting as if she wasn't in the same world as them, "Nothing."
Kim rolled her deep brown eyes at the blonde girl sitting across from her and scoffed, "Please. We all know that's a lie. You've barely eaten for two weeks now. You've been sleeping in late. Your test grades have been starting to fall and you've been jumpy whenever someone mentions the video of Jack and Blackstar beating the crud out of those guys in ninja suits."
Roxy completely froze still as the spoon she had been holding fell onto the floor clattering.
Kim smirked. "See you are jumpy. Your spoon came right out of your fingers." The blonde cheerleader pointed out, quite triumphantly to prove her point.
Roxy glared at the blonde and crossed her arms over her chest. "I'm fine, Kim. I just had a few bad weeks doesn't everyone?" She cocked an eyebrow at the teens staring at her except for Jerry who was still oblivious to the whole conversation, trying to swallow down the slime mold-like, pudding.
Eddie, Milton, Jack, and Kim all looked at each other like they were trying to make up an answer by reading their minds. They then turned back to Roxy and said in unison, "Nope."
Roxy muttered, "Whatever," as she rolled her eyes and looked around the cafeteria her piercing eyes landing on a scary poster…well to her. The poster read, 'Who is Blackstar?' and it was hung up by the food line. Whoever was putting these posters up had them up after the second week the video had gone viral.
She didn't want any attention. She hated attention with a passion even though she usually brought it on herself. She will always hate it especially if it is towards her alter ego.
Roxy looked over the poster again hoping it would just burst into flames, for days she had been out until one in the morning tearing down anything that had to do with her alter ego. Last night, she even went out in the pouring rain trying to at least de-Blackstar Seaford knowing she wouldn't be able to get all of San Jose, but of course all the stuff just showed up in the same spots she had destroyed it, the next morning on her way to school. She should've given up on that routine, days ago.
Then an unpleasant voice spoke from behind her. "Hey, Jack. Jerry. Eddie. Milton, and uh...Kim."
Roxy cocked an eyebrow and could tell by the way Jack rolled his eyes and the rest just looked plain annoyed. It was Donna Tobin who was greeting them at the moment.
Roxy turned around to face Seaford's beauty queen. She was wearing a white tank top and a smooth pink mini-skirt that showed-off her curves with beach sandals. Her make-up was done brightly like a Barbie dolls and her luscious brown locks were swept up in a bouncy, peppy pony-tail. She had a wide smile curved on her lips, but Roxy could easily tell how fake it was.
Donna piped up noticing that no one was going to take in any effort to greet her at all. "Here you go." She said this slapping down fliers in the middle of the table and sliding a rectangular box Jack's way. Kim took a flier and studied it carefully with a suspicious eye. Jack just cocked an eyebrow at the box lying in front of him. He carefully picked it up and eyed it curiously. Roxy also did the same wondering what Donna would have given him.
Jack slowly opened the black lid to it and peered inside. He raised his eyebrows in confusion but also shock. He looked at Donna weirdly and asked cautiously not sure if he really wanted to know the answer to this question. "Why are you giving me a box filled with money?"
Donna said in a fake innocent voice, "Well, I thought that maybe a little bribe will get you to reveal anything about Blackstar...maybe an identity perhaps?" She raised her eyebrows in hope as a smile curved on her lips again.
Roxy eyed Jack with worry. She had told him some pretty personally stuff she was sure he could keep a secret no matter what. 'C'mon Anderson show me I can trust you.'
Jack just gave Donna an 'Are you kidding me look?' He then looked back at the box he was currently holding in his hand and chuckled as he slid the box across the table towards Donna. "Sorry, Donna I don't know a thing and even if I did know a thing I wouldn't tell you a thing, no matter how much of your daddy's money you would give me."
Roxy smiled at Jack now convinced he had his loyalty to her no matter what.
Donna pouted, "But I could get you a mansion with everything you would ever want if you got me some sort of information on her."
Jack laughed. "Nah...but I think I'm good."
Donna huffed, "Fine. Just come find me when you want to go out sometime." She then winked at Jack flirtatiously and walked away swinging her hips.
Jack rolled his eyes at the popular girls retreating form and said out of nowhere, "I really do wonder who she is though."
Kim shrugged and threw down a flier Donna had thrown on to the lunch table. "Well, if you want a million bucks and an all-paid trip to Hawaii go ahead and find out and report it to Donna Tobin herself."
Jack's eyes grew wide and he quickly grabbed the pile of fliers from the middle of the table and looked at all of them. He read it out loud:
"Who is Blackstar?" This is the question people have been asking for weeks? If you know who Blackstar is, as in her identity or any information at all please call 564-453 or email Donna Tobin at hot&. You can win an all-paid trip to Hawaii and a million bucks all courteously of the Tobin family.
Don't you want to know who Blackstar is?
Roxy snorted in the silence once Jack finished reading, "No. Who cares?"
Milton looked at her stunned. "You're not a least bit curious of Blackstar's identity?"
Roxy smirked at Milton and cocked an unconcerned eyebrow while shaking her head letting her wavy locks fall into her face along with her bangs. "Pfft...no. She probably has a good reason for hiding it anyway. I say leave the girl to do her stuff."
Jerry than suddenly made an outburst throwing his arms up in the air. "Woo! I got Donna Tobin's phone number!" He looked around the table at the baffled teens giving them all a sweet grin of victory as he held up the flier Jack had currently thrown down on the lunch table a second ago, with the rest.
Kim commented referring to the flier as she ignored the ecstatic Latino , "This idea is so messed up. Like seriously I could basically say Roxy is Blackstar and win not only a million bucks but a free ride to Hawaii."
Roxy thought, 'Man, Kim you have no clue, how right you are.'
Eddie commented taking a good look at Roxy, "Well...they actually do sort of look a-like," he then went back to stuffing a sub he had brought from home into his mouth.
Roxy snapped nervously looking around the table, noticing even Jerry was no longer intrigued in Donna's number but gazing at her curiously, "W-What I-I look nothing like her."
Kim cocked an eyebrow and gave the tomboy a challenging look. "Why do you sound so nervous?"
Roxy choked out as she began to feel butterflies in her stomach. "I don't sound nervous."
Milton scoffed with a roll of his blue eyes, "Please, Roxy you even look nervous. Your face is turning red, you're looking around and your shoulder just twitched."
Roxy's heart rate started to beat faster as she felt all eyes on her but not like eyes staring, at her but accusing eyes. Her hands started to get clammy as she looked anywhere but their faces trying to figure out something good to say.
Jack then burst out with a question that's been running through his mind since, the unfinished conversation Kim and him, had the day before the video went viral. "Are you Blackstar, Roxy?" He asked her this looking at her quizzically. Kim starred at her with concerned but suspicious eyes, while Eddie, Milton, and Jerry just stared in shock trying to make all the connections in their heads; not understanding why Jack would ask such a question.
Roxy looked nervously around the table at the group of teens staring at her with accusing eyes. 'This wasn't supposed to happen! It isn't the right time! Not now!'She thought this as she frantically was looking for anyway out of this mess knowing her nervous body language wasn't helping at the moment. She then opened her mouth to speak, but fell silent as a loud-BRING, echoed through the cafeteria singling them to get to their 6th period.
Roxy smiled brightly at the loud annoying bell, actually happy to head to 6th period. She quickly picked up her bag, leaving the tray on the table and quickly ran out of the lunchroom, in a heartbeat. She started to slow down figuring teens would soon be piling out from behind her, and they would probably think she's even more of a freak running down the hallway faster than speed racer. As she slowed down her pace she suddenly hit something and fell to the cold hallway floor with a thud.
She snapped irritably, "Hey! Watch; where you're going," as she picked herself up from the floor and fixed her tight purple V-neck T-shirt. She then looked up to see the person she had rudely sped into. She couldn't even see his face though. He was wearing blue jeans, a dark red hoodie over a black muscle top. He looked up at her and that's when Roxy froze, as her piercing blue eyes widened in shock. The boy shook his bangs out of his face and let the hoodie fall to his neck.
The Wasabi Warriors then ran up from behind Roxy. Jack looked over Roxy confused by her frozen position and her piercing blue eyes, that were currently; bulging out of their sockets, but he followed her gaze to the face of the boy standing in front of her at the moment, who was currently looking at her with a blank stare and his eyes filled with no emotion whatsoever.
His face then changed quickly from confusion and turned into an angry glare as he clenched his fists up in fury noticing the boy was not someone he ever thought he would ever see again.
Boy, was he wrong.
So, who is this mysterious boy? Will Roxy be able to lie any longer about her identity to the Wasabi Warriors? Or will she finally fess up? Or will the attention ruin it all?
