A/N: Hey peeps! This is my second story. My other story 'Behind The Walls' isn't doing so well. I've decided to take a break from that one to do this one. Unlike my last story, this one has been completely planned out. That was probably my mistake on the other one. I've also decided to try a different form of writing. Well, I hope you enjoy the story!

Chapter 1 - New Enemies, New Friends


Jack sat in biology, waiting for the bell to ring. Ten minutes until school was over, but he would still have to stay after school though. Tick, tock, tick, tock. Jack was going insane. In the corner of his eye, he saw Eddie in the back of the room, like always.

He remembered pushing Eddie back there, just like he did every other day. He regretted calling him a 'Loser' and he wanted to apologize more than anything. But even saying something as simple as 'Sorry' to non-popular could ruin his reputation forever. Tick...tock...tick...tock.

Eddie looked up from his desk, but looked back down as soon as he saw Jack. Jack turned back around, but now he could feel someone staring at him. Kim, Kim Crawford. His arch enemy, but she wasn't giving him a harsh look or a 'I-hate-you-so-much' look. Not at all.

It was a sympathetic look. She looked sad and her eyes were filled with sorrow. Jack studied her, and Kim kept looking. She didn't care that he had noticed, it seemed as if she wanted him to notice. There eyes met and both of them completely froze.

For a moment Jack was looking at her the same way, it was as if they connected in some way. It seemed like the old Kim was back, and she was bringing back the old Jack. But, Jack and Kim never even each other before. They had never met the old Jack or the old Kim.

RING!

Jack and Kim shot their heads away and quickly left without looking at anyone. Everyone had seen them staring at each other, it wasn't normal, they despised each other. Something was up.

Jack walked to his locker, he grabbed everything he needed then closed his locker. He was trying to figure out what had just happened, maybe he could ask Kim. They both had practice after school. Kim had competitive cheerleading and Jack had football, they both practiced on the same field.

Jack and Kim were the first ones in the field. They both wanted to talk to each other so badly, but if anyone saw them, it would start rumors. Jack walked back inside, Kim knew that he wanted her to follow him.

She kept a distance, so no one would suspect anything. She saw Jack walk inside the storage closet, everyone saw Kim following him. She received strange looks from other girls, so as soon as she got in there, she covered it up.

"What do you think your doing?" Kim said, suddenly everyone stopped staring because it was completely normal for them to fight. Jack caught on right away "What do you mean Crawford?" Jack said. They rambled on fighting until they were sure no one was there.

"Alright, everybody is gone. Now why were you staring at me like that?" Kim sat down on the floor "Lets just say I'm not the Kim you think I am" Jack looked at her. "Obviously, the Kim I know would never sit on the dirty floor!" She rolled her eyes and continued sitting on the floor.

"Okay, fine. Why did you return the look?" Jack sat down too "I'm not the Jack you think I am" he smiled and so did Kim. "Obviously, the Jack I know would never walk into storage!" They both laughed "Well what do you say we get to know each other?" Kim smiled.

"I haven't talked about my past in a long time" Jack said, Kim stood up. "Neither have I, that's something we've got in common" Jack smiled, but it quickly faded. "Someone will find out" Jack said. "Your right. Lets just pretend that this never happened" Kim smiled one last time with Jack.

"Alright, I don't feel like going to practice now" Kim sighed. "Me neither. I'll leave now and you wit here for about five minutes, then you can leave" Jack nodded as Kim left the school building. Her house wasn't very far, so she quickly ran home.

Kim felt like someone had heard them. She enjoyed their talk though, it was going to be hard to forget about it. They could've been great friends, but if Jack had really wanted to get to know her, he wouldn't care about his reputation.

Kim was willing to take the risk, but Jack would have to meet her half-way. Then they would become friends and forget all about the stupid populars.

Jack left the building quietly. As soon as the door shut, Milton peered out of his corner. He had caught Jack and Kim laughing, together. He decided he wouldn't say anything because no one would believe him anyway.

Milton waited for about ten minutes, then he left too. As he walked the warm streets of Seaford he could here the small conversations in houses, but there was one house in particular that made his heart want to stop. Two people were fighting and screaming.

Milton looked in the window, he saw a Latino boy spying on them. He turned around and sighed a if it were a normal thing. Milton recognized him from school, he used to be a dancer, Milton never knew why he stopped.

Milton felt sorry for the boy, but there was nothing he could do. He continued walking to his own house, that was about a block away. He opened the door and prayed that no one was home "Oh, look honey! The nerd is home!" I sighed "Stop calling me that" I muttered.

"What?" Milton's dad asked "Just because I'm not a jock like the rest of this family, it doesn't make me a dork or nerd!" He said loudly, his dad frowned. Milton rolled his eyes then ran up the stairs. He slammed his door closed.

There was a knock "Go away!" Milton shouted "It's Jason". Jason was His older brother, the only one who didn't make fun of him. He slowly opened the door, Jason stepped inside. "You okay?" He asked "No, no I'm not. Dad calls me a nerd everyday, you don't know what that feels like."

"I'm sorry Milkshake" Milton looked up annoyed. "You know I hate that nickname" Jason smiled. "You know I love that nickname" Milton laughed. "Today I over heard to popular kids, who are enemies, laughing, together" Jason looked at him funny.

"That's unnatural" Milton nodded. "Should I investigate?" Jason nodded and laughed "I've gotta go to my game. Are you coming?" Milton shook his head "Homework" Jason nodded and left the room. Maybe there was hope.

Jerry Martinez quietly left his house. He walked backwards to make sure no one heard him, then he turned around and started to run. He ran into someone else though, they both hit the ground "Sorry I wasn't paying attention" he said. "It's okay" an African-American boy said "I'm Eddie" Jerry held out his hand. "Jerry" he said.

"If you don't mind me asking, why were you running?" Jerry tried to think of an excuse "You see,...My parents were fighting" he admitted. "I'm sorry" Jerry fake smiled "I'll see you around Jerry" Eddie walked away.

Jerry smiled, he hadn't made a friend in years. He walked away from his house and decided to go to the mall. He hadn't been there in awhile; he saw Falafel Phil's, Lonnie's Lizards, Sticky Buns, and all sorts of places.

He saw a dojo, Bobby Wasabi Martial Arts Academy. Jerry always wanted to learn karate, it could help him with his dancing skills. He saw a man walking out of the dojo, he looked really sad. Jerry recognized him, but he didn't know where from.

When the man was out of sight, Jerry walked inside the dojo. There weren't any trophies, he thought about how cool it would be if he got a trophy. Maybe someday he could get one and put it in this dojo. The mats, lockers, uniforms were all clean.

It looked brand new, like it had never been touched. Shouldn't there be students training here? With their sensei? Jerry thought. Then he understood why the man was so gloomy, this dojo really was new and untouched.

There weren't any students and that man was the sensei! Jerry remembered the man from Seaford High, he used to be the PE couch. What was his name... "Coach Rudy!" He was Jerry's favorite teacher, but he got replaced because Jack Brewer and Kim Crawford beat him on there first day of school.

Jerry wished that those two would've never came to his school. That's when everything went wrong for him. In his opinion everything that he hated about his life was because of them. If only he could get them kicked out of school. He'd be able to join the dance team again.

Eddie walked into the Comic Book store, where his club met everyday. He thought about Jerry had he made a friend? No one ever wanted to be friends with him. Eddie had seen Jerry around school, usually all gloomy and sad. He was made fun by Jack and Kim, which was no surprise to Eddie.

The Comic Book Club was of ten members. Eddie wasn't even their friend, they just used him because of his knowledge on Comics. Jerry felt like a real friend, even though he just met him. "Eddie, are you going to join us!?" Ryan and the rest of the club had already came "Oh, yeah" Eddie sadly joined the group.

Eddie suddenly had a somewhat vision.

Five kids were in a dojo, Eddie was there. There was a nerd and a Latino boy, Jerry. Jack Brewer and Kim Crawford were there too. "Come on Eddie! For me?" Kim begged, Eddie laughed "Fine, but only because it's for you!" Kim held up her hands in pride.

"Guys! Hey guys! Check out my new Bo staff routine!" Jack did some karate moves in a single motion "Wow, Jack!" Kim said while running over to him to hug him, they smiled and gazed at each other for awhile.

"EARTH TO JACK AND KIM!" Jerry screamed, Kim gave him a glare. Jerry ran away screaming like a girl and Kim smiled in defeat.

He suddenly switched visions

"Ooh! She flipped you like a pancake!" The sensei said to Jack "I got to admit, you got the best of me Kim" she smiled and walked outside. "I did not see that coming Jack" Jerry said, Jack chuckled. "Yeah, well sometimes you got to expect the unexpected" Jack left happily.

"Wow!" Eddie said "I gotta go!" He ran outside the store not believing what he had just seen. Jack and Kim liked each other? They were all friends? Eddie did something for Kim? That vision had to mean something.

Rudy Gillespie sadly walked to Circus Burger. His life was completely ruined, all hopes for a career were dead "What would you like to eat sir?" Rudy sighed and left. He made his way back to his empty dojo, or so he thought.

On his way there two men approached him "You've got one month" Rudy knew exactly what he meant. He went inside his dojo to find someone looking around "Can I help you?" He asked the Latino boy, he nodded "Can I join this dojo?" Rudy was surprise.

"O-of course!" He said "You can start tomorrow!" Rudy said cheerfully "Look I know what it's like to have your life ruined by Jack Brewer and Kimberly Crawford" Rudy got angry after hearing those cursed names.

"Don't you ever say those names in front of me!" He screamed, Jerry was taken aback "I was just–" Rudy interrupted rudely. "Get out of my dojo and never come back!" Jerry left without hesitation, he didn't feel like fighting with a 3rd degree black belt.

Rudy went into his office and started looked through his old pictures. Most of them were of him at games. Some of family and one of the student teacher match. The match where his career life ended.

"Rudy your fired!" He could still feel Jack snickering behind him and he could hear Kim's icy laugh. He looked up at the picture of Bobby Wasabi and him, it was when he had fist bought the dojo.

"Never give up hope, Rudy" that's what Bobby had told him right before the picture. Now he's shutting Rudy down and all hope is lost.

He had lost his first student. Rudy needed to find the best karate kid in town, and he was going to. Nothing was going to stop him now.


A/N: What did you think? Everyone has a secret past, what do you think they are. Jerry's has been somewhat revealed and Rudy's has been revealed. If any of you are wondering, Jerry knew Rudy was a 3rd degree black belt because he saw his belt. If you have any questions let me know! I've got my own questions to ask you:

What's Jerry's plan to get rid Jack and Kim? Will it work? Did Eddies visions mean anything? What Jack and Kim mean when they said that they weren't the people everyone thought they were? Will Rudy ever find students? Will Milton really keep his secret? What do you think of Jerry and Eddies friendship?
