Chapter 1 - Bravery

The Connection/NtParty

Today's story begins on a hot sunny day. A boy named Jerry was on his way to school when he passed by another classmate's house. He saw their house was being surrounded by cops armed with guns. He asked people around what's going on and they all said apparently there's a serial killer who broke into that house. Jerry asked, "Why the hell aren't the cops going in to get him." The other people said apparently the serial killer is holding people hostage. Jerry ran in the house, grabbed a knife and rushed for the serial killer and tried stabbing him, but the serial killer stabbed Jerry in the leg. Jerry fell and grabbed the serial killer and told the people living there and said "Quickly! Get out of here while I keep him busy." They ran out but Jerry's classmate said, "You idiot, you should've just stayed out of this, thank you." "Don't worry about it now run! ", Jerry replied.

"Shana why did this have to happen, why did things turn out this way?" cried Marleen. "Marleen... you couldn't have done anything about what happened, you couldn't control Jerry's actions and you sure as hell couldn't predict that a serial killer would come and take you and your family hostage." said Shana. "Well Well Well, if it isn't Shana and her broken little friend Marleen, hahaha I never thought I'd find you two in here having such an emotional talk." said Janette "Why the hell are you here, shouldn't you be telling girls you're the self-proclaimed Queen of the school?" asked Shana angrily.

"Well, the patient's condition is bad but he's lucky that he survived cause he had a stab wound in his stomach and leg and he'll probably recover in 2 months' time." explained the Nurse. "Oh, I see, well Jerry it'll be awhile until me and you can be together again." said a mysterious girl. "______ is that you? Aren't you supposed... to be at school?" asked Jerry. "Don't speak Jerry, I want you to heal up, I'm here to stay with you. I don't really need to be at school, things aren't interesting so I'll be here to stay with you until you recover. Remember when I got bullied and all the girls would hit me and kick me than you came in saying that beating up other girls doesn't sit right with you and you said "If you're going to kick someone then kick me, leave her alone and kick me."

"Oh, I see." Jerry said sadly. Meanwhile at Jerry's school... "Yo Marleen, I don't wanna see you in that terrible state again now that the news of Jerry might return to school soon." Jacques said angrily. "Shut up you idiot, I was a fool 2 months ago; I let that idiot get too close and that won't happen again." said Marleen. "Marleen usually I'd shout at Jacques, but he's right." Shana struggled saying. "Yea Yea Yea I got it, I don't want Janette to bite my head off so I don't need to hear anymore about that stuff." said Marleen.
