Author's Note: I don't own Grease nor Grease 2 or any of the Character. The only thing is the plot to the story and a few characters of my own
Summary: Grease 2 Au. One Shot. What if the T-Birds and Pink Ladies hadn't turned up just as Michael was about to reveal the true identity of the 'Cool Rider' to Stephanie? How would that have changed the course of the movie?
AN: Alright here's chapter 4. This is only a filler chapter. Reviews would be nice.
Chapter 4
It was two hours later. I had been working on my motorcycle for about an hour or so now. I heard a car pull into the driveway. I looked up as my Aunt and mother got out of the car and headed inside the house.
"Michael phone for you" I looked up as my Aunt called for me form the back door of the house. I set down the wrench I had been using. I headed to wards the house.
I picked up the receiver. I could hear a male voice in the background though it was muffled most likely by a hand over the receiver.
"Hello Michael are you there. " I heard my older cousin Sandy's voice on the other end of the line.
"Yea I'm here. So how is college life in LA" I asked, Sandy and Danny her boyfriend of two years.
"Oh it's alright. Danny said to say hello. So how is life at Rydell so far" Sandy asked, the last time I had spoken to Sandy had been two days before I had started at Rydell High.
"Alright I guess. This year T-Birds and Pink Ladies are different" I said tyring to give anyway much information yet.
"Oh. So Frenchy hinted at the fact there is a girl you like" Sandy explained. Of course Frenchy would have said something to Sandy about Stephanie because well they where best friends.
"There is a girl and she's my girlfriend now, well since Friday night at least." I explained.
"Ah I see so does this girlfriend have a name" Sandy inquired.
"Stephanie Zinone she's the leader of the Pink Ladies this year" I replied, looking over my shoulder as my mother stepped into the hallway where I was on the phone talking to Sandy.
"Pink Ladies. That would mean your would have to be a T-Bird to public date her wouldn't you." Sandy asked.
"Yea I became a T-Bird on Saturday" I explained to Sandy.
"I'm sorry Michael but I have to go. I have to get to a lecture in twenty minutes" Sandy said quickly before she hung up. I put the receiver down on the phone and went to walk into the kitchen.
I grabbed myself a beer from the fridge to drink. I cracked it open just as my mother walked back into the kitchen.
"So what are these T-Birds you're a member of? Please tell me it's not a gang," She asked as I took a sip of my beer.
"It's a gang of sorts. There's five of us in the T-Birds and there's the girls in the Pink Ladies." I explained as I took another sip of my beer.
My mother was interrupted from asking any more questions as my three younger siblings walked into the kitchen.
"Rydell High is an interesting place." Rose stated picking up a piece of fruit form the fruit blow on the kitchen table.
"I made a couple of friends in my classes." Billy spoke up a few moments later. I only nodded as I had just taken a long sip of my beer. I got up and headed out the door to finish working on my motorcycle
I felt someone's eyes burring into me about five minutes later. I glanced over my shoulder to see my younger sister standing there.
"Something I can help you with Rose" I asked going back to tightening the bolt I had been tightening.
"I heard that you've got a girlfriend. Have you told mother?" She asked, I set the wrench on the seat of my motorcycle.
"No. I haven't told her yet." I said casually taking another sip of my half empty beer.
I grabbed the wrench again and went about tightening the bolt. I shoved the wrench into my back jeans pocket. I kicked the motorcycle into gear and revved the engine to see if it was running a bit better then it had been earlier.
"When did you get a motorcycle? The last time you tried to ride Uncle Tom's Norton." Rose commented as I switched off the engine of my motorcycle.
"I got it four a half months ago. Can you pass me that rag please Rose" I asked her for the rag near the toolbox. She handed it to me. I wiped the oil and a little of the grease off the tools I had used. I wiped my hands on it.
I placed the tools back in the toolbox and headed for my room in the Nuclear Fallout Shelter. Rose was still standing next to my motorcycle when I came back over to it.
I grabbed the almost empty beer that sat on the driveway near my motorcycle. The sounds of a group of engines approaching the house caught my attention. Rose watched as three motorcycles pulled near the curb of the driveway of their Aunt Edna and Uncle Jack's house.
She looked over at her brother who took another sip of his beer and walked down the driveway to talk to group of boys with the motorcycles. It was what people at Rydell High called the T-Birds.
She could not make out what her eldest older brother was saying to them as she was to far away to hear what they where saying. From the body langue of her brother these boys he was talking with, had to be his friends.
"Who are they " Rose looked to her left to see her other older brother Patrick standing beside her.
"Not a clue Pat. They most be Michael's friends." Rose commented to Patrick. Patrick only nodded before heading back inside the house. Rose followed after Patrick only a moment later.
Five minutes later I watched as Johnny and the boys rode off. The whole gang was going blowing at the Blow A Rama the next evening as they did every week on a Tuesday night.
I glanced at my watch as I walked back up the driveway. It was just on three thirty in the afternoon. I walked towards the Nuclear Fall Out Shelter that was dubbed as my room.
I grabbed my T-Birds Jacket, Helmet and Goggles. I slipped on my T-Birds Jacket and headed towards the house to tell my aunt I wouldn't be home until maybe after dinner.
I stoped at the back door the lead into the kitchen. I could hear a muffled conversation going on inside between two female voices it sounded like.
"Millicent just because Michael has joined the T-Birds does make him to be a career criminal when he graduates. Danny is or was a T-Bird when he and Sandy started to date at the end of their senior year a Rydell and he is not a delinquent. He's attending college at the moment." My Aunt Edna commented to my mother.
"Well that's all well and good Edna. But Michael has changed so drastically for what reasons I do not know why" My mother responded.
I had heard more then enough. I pushed open the back door announcing my presences to them.
"I'm going out for a while. I won't be back until maybe after dinner," I said mostly to my aunt. I walked back out the front door not a minute later.
After a half an hour to an hour's ride to the hill that over looked Rydell. I had found this place by accident one day when I had out riding around. Before the 'Cool Rider' had first been seen at the Blowing Alley that night.
I sat with my back against the tree truck just quietly thinking and contemplating things. I needed a bit of piece and quite and a little breathing space which I couldn't get back at the house.
I sat there for about maybe a few hours, just watching the town below. The sun had begun to sink low behind the horizon. I kicked the motorcycle into gear. I arrived back at my aunt and uncle's house just after dark. The light was on the back porch.
I put the kickstand out on my motorcycle and switched off the engine. I pulled off my goggles and unstrapped my helmet and pulled it off and headed inside.
"Millicent just drop it alright. Whom Michael dates is his business". My father stressed to my mother just as I opened the back door to the kitchen.
"All I'm curious about is what her name is. That's all I want to know Allan" My mother responded not noticing I was standing in the doorway of the backdoor.
"Her names Stephanie. Does the suffice your curiosity Mother " I replied shortly before walking back out the door and headed towards my room.
Tuesday morning rolled around. I was up and gone by six thirty. I sat under the tree near the parking lot. There was still a lot of talk going about the school about me becoming a T-Birds and dating the leader of the Pink Ladies.
I thought back to last night. After I had walked off to my room. My mother had followed after me. We had exchanged words over Sarah Hamilton and Stephanie. It wasn't that I hated my mother.
But what had happened in the past between Sarah and I was in the past. That was where I wanted it to wanted to stay. I had moved on with my life. I had never really loved Sarah as much as I loved Stephanie.
With Sarah it had always been about her. I had thought that I had loved her and she loved me. But my mother had decided that she wanted to know every little detail of what had happened between Sarah and I before I had come here to Rydell a week before school started back for the term.
I looked up just as the Pink Ladies Studebaker pulled up. I didn't move or get up from where I was seated under the tree. The boys pulled up about maybe twenty minutes later.
I got up from where I had been seated under the three. I wandered over to where the Birds and the Pink Ladies where standing. I placed an arm around Stephanie's shoulder.
About an hour and a bit later it was just on second period. I had a spare for the second and third period. The hallway was mostly deserted. I spotted someone being shoved against the lockers.
There was at least four in the group of people hassling the person. As I got closer I noticed it was my younger brother Billy.
"Hey. Leave him alone" I yelled to get their attention. The leader of the group turned his head.
"What's it to you" He said trying to act tough.
"He's my brothers that's what is to me" I said calm, as you like.
"Me and Billy here where just chatting is all" The guy smugly said. There where a lot of things I could tolerate but someone picking on my younger siblings wasn't one of them.
"Oh really. So you weren't the one that shoved him into lockers and threating him for something. " I asked not for one second believing his lie.
"No it was an accident" The leader of the group said tyring to play innocently.
"An accident right. Billy go to class. I'll deal with them. " I scoffed and placed my books on the floor.
Once Billy was out of sight. I turned my attention to the four tough guys that had been hassling Billy.
"What are you going to do now tough guy" The leader of the pack sneered.
"I'll give you one warning. You stay away from my brother. If I so as much as hear he's scraped his arm. You'll have me and Birds to deal with " I sternly warned.
"T-Birds yea right. They're nothing more then a bunch of pansy." He scoffed.
"Of really. And you think you're any tougher. Then let's see it. You really tough with your friends backing you up. " I said crossing my arms over my chest.
"Come on Eddie. Let's get to class." One his friends asked him Eddie to walk away.
"You can go to class Victor with Jesse and Carlson." Eddie said telling them to leave.
"Come on Eddie just leave it alright" Jesse spoke up and attempted to steer Eddie away but he only shrugged Jesse's hand off his shoulder.
I stood there and said nothing. Eddie trying to prove he was a tough guy. He shoved me twice before I threw the first punch it glanced off Eddie's jaw.
Eddie came out me swinging wildly. Unlike Eddie I had competed at boxing not that anyone would have guessed it. I ducked under one of his wild punches and tackled him into the lockers.
He got a lucky blow after that. It only spilt my lip. I gave a harsh left upper cut to his jaw. It seemed to daze him enough.
"What is going on here? Mr Carrington. Mr Franks to my office now." I turned my head to see Miss McGee standing there. I wiped the blood from my spilt lip
