Chapter 1

"Hope! Get up now! We have to leave in 2 hours!" My dad yelled at me from upstairs. I crawl out of my bed and go shower to get ready for my day. My outfit for the day consists of a leather jacket, dark wash jeans, a white t-shirt, and a pair of gladiator heels. Before I head downstairs I take a quick ootd pic and post it on my Instagram account.

I go downstairs to get some food for breakfast. Last night I made fruit salad and there was some left over so I decided to eat that. "You ready?" My dad asks. "Yep." We walk out and I jump into my car. My dad taps on the window. "Just follow me to get there. Then afterwards you can go do whatever school shopping you want." "Okay lets get going." I followed my dad to the school, it probably took us 15 min tops to get to the school. The school looked pretty normal from the outside. We walked into the school. At the front office there was an older lady sitting there. "Hello how may I help you today, officer Kerr?" The lady asked my dad. "Today my daughter and I are touring the school before she starts monday. I just want her to be able to not get lost in this school. Also can I get her schedule?" As she was digging around in her files she continued the conversation with my father. "I didn't know you had a daughter. Hopefully she will find that this school is easy to get adjusted to. This school is pretty big but its easy to get around once you learn where everything is. Here is her schedule. Have a good day."

My schedule for this semester:

1st hour: Pre calc with Mr. White

2nd hour: Drawing with Ms. Carpel

3rd hour: Speech with Mr. Powell

4th hour: English 4A with Mrs. Bruton

Lunch

5th hour: Physics with Mr. Jackson

6th hour: Honors history with Mr. Garland

7th hour: Plant Science and Technologies with Mrs. Boren

She paused for a second. "Hang on just a second. You may be chief of police, but you are still gonna need someone to give y'all the tour. So just go sit down over there and I'll see who is available." She pointed in the direction of some chair that didn't look too comfy. I got on my phone to check my Instagram. Yay! 50 likes in 20 min! Thats the most I've ever gotten! I did a mini celebration in my head. "Hello. I'm Jonathan Victor. I will be showing you guys around the school." An older guy said as he stood in front of my dad and I. "Lets get going I have to do school shopping and I'd prefer to get it done before it gets dark." I say. We start the tour. "Right now it is still first hour for another 10 minutes so you will get to see who is on your first hour and possibly you second hour." Mr. Victor said. While visiting Mr. Whites class I see my cousin Martin and a couple of his friends that I know. "Hey cuz let me see you schedule he hollers at me." I walk over to him and hand him my schedule. "We have this class 4th hour and 7th hour together." He says. I smile, 'This year is gonna be extremely fun.' I think to myself. While we were heading to my second hour teacher the bell rang and the hallways were flooded with people. When we get to my second hour class I see a familiar face from Colorado. "Colton?! What are you doing here? I thought you lived in colorado. I haven't seen you since freshman year." "I moved here over the summer my dad works here now so we moved." He says. "Well its good to see you and I hope we can catch up at some point." We leave the classroom and we continue the tour and all I can say is I'm gonna be extremely lost monday. Its about 1:00 when we finish the tour, "Okay so that is all your classes and the main part of the school. Now I'm gonna show you the detention and in school suspension area. Hopefully you will only have to see this once and will try to follow the rules. The set up we have here is my own product and design." Mr. Victor say to us so we follow him down some stairs.

This place looks like some sort of prison from the future! When you first get down the stairs there is two security guards but looks normal otherwise. Then once you go through a door there is nothing normal about this place. The walls are white and there are cells will a guard outside of each of the cells. The cells have these blueish see through door, type of things and some of the cells have 3-5 kids in there already. I didn't realize it but I got separated from my dad, "Fuck!" I say to myself quietly. One of the guards turned to me, "what did you just say?" He questioned. "Ummmm duck?" I respond. "No, you just swore which is against the rules." He said while approaching me. I look around for my dad a little panicked. "I uh... don't know what you're talking about. Cause I know for a fact that I said 'Duck' so you should just back off." I lie. "Don't lie to me girl." I turn to run but he grabs my arm and pins it behind me. His hot breathe fanned across my neck. "You just broke two rules. So it looks like you get to spend some time in a cell." He says to me. Pushing me over to the cell, he opens the door and shoves me in. I stumble a little but catch my balance. "You prick! I'm not even a student at this school yet! I'm just doing a tour!" I start screaming at him. "You asshole! I swear when I get out of here you better run. Cause I am going to rip your balls off and then feed them to you." My voice is laced with venom. "Well little missy you just earned yourself another 45 minutes in there or until you are cooled down. Whichever comes later. You originally only had 15 minutes but now you have an hour in total. Also if you weren't a student here then how come you had this in your hand?" He holds up my schedule. "You are dead." I say and grab my schedule out of his hands.

I hear a chuckle behind me and I turn around to see who has a death wish. "Sup cuz." Martin says to me. "You sure do know how to put on a show and scare the living daylights out of a man." He laughed. "You could see it in his eyes I think he almost crapped himself." He wiped away fake tears. "Why are you talkin like that?" I question him, he normally cusses up a storm. "I'm trying to actually get out of here. The more you cuss and trow a fit the longer you will be in here. And anyways that's why I got stuck in here I cussed and my teacher flipped out." He responds. All the sudden the door open, "Martin you can go now, I hope you learned your lesson." I took this as my chance to leave. I rushed out the door but since I was in my heels still I couldn't run that fast and the guard caught me. "Well little missy it looks like you just wont learn. He drags me back to the cell and before he shoves me in I get my arm loose and turn and knee him in the balls. He curls up in a ball and holds his junk. I run, I make it back down to the door that leads to the stairs. Right before I make it there the door slams open. The two guards come out and grab me. "You little brat." My guard says. "Follow me gentle man shes going to a special cell made for people just like her." The two guards carry me while following the other guard. We come to a cell it looks just like the rest except for one little thing. There is two guards instead of one. One of the guards opens the door, "In you go! Hope you have fun. See you in 2 hours." He turned and left. I sit down and see another guy sitting in here. "Hello." I say to him. "My name is Hope what is yours?" He looks up at me. "John." He totally has a rock n roll vibe which makes me smile. "Well John how long are you in here for?" I ask out of curiosity. "Another 2 hours or so." He responds. I go sit next to him, "well I have a plan to get out of here and I'm gonna need your help." I whisper into his ear. He smiles in response. "I'll help. Besides I need a little entertainment." We make up a plan.

We wait a couple minutes and continue to talk. I nod to let him know that we need to start the plan, I take off my heels. "I said NO!" I yell at John. "Shhh don't make a scene. I just want to have a little bit fun." He said while scooting closer to me. I scoot away from him acting creeped out. He put his hand on my lag and starts to move it upwards. I jerk away from him, "Stop touching me!" I yell. He grabs my leg again, I jump up, "Leave me alone! I don't want to!" He stands up slowly, "aww come on honey I know you want me." He said huskily. I shudder, "stay away from me! Please! Just stay away!" He grabs me by my shoulders and looks me in the eye. "Hey boy let her go!" One of the guards says. "Shut up old man." John growled without breaking eye contact with me. It kind of scared me. With a smirk he slammed his lips onto mine and pushed me up against the wall. I kept trying to get free of his grip but I couldn't. Suddenly the doors open. The guards rush in and force John off of me. I sit there for a second acting stunned while John starts to fight them. With my heels in hand I see a clear shot to the door and I run. At first the guards are too caught up in whats going on to notice me leave. Then I hear them start to holler for me. I keep running but not in the direction of the stairs cause those two guards know who I am and would stop me. Coming through a door I come to a room that looks like a storage room. I hear boots clomping down the hall. I hid in a container quickly. Within seconds after I hid the guards came running through the room. In my container there was a little crack and I could see the guards through it. I saw the two guards that were guarding me and the two from the stairs. I get out of my hiding spot and run back through the door. I kept running until I got back to the stairs. As soon as I opened the door to the stairs I heard the other door open. "Stop right there little missy!" One of the guards yell, but I was already gone. I ran through the school trying to find a way out. Finally I found a door to the outside. I slowed to a jog trying to find the parking lot. Once I got to the parking lot I got into my car. I locked all the doors cause I could see the mob of guards running after me. I start my car a peel out of the parking lot. Plugging in my phone real quick I head to the mall.

~~~~~~~30 min later~~~~~~~~

I park my car and grab my phone. I put on my heels as I call my dad. "Hope! Where are you? Are you alright?" My dad answers frantically. "I'm fine, I'm at the mall. Sorry if I worried you. When I get home I will explain everything. I promise." I reply. "Okay. I'm just glad that you're safe. Have fun shopping and don't stay out too late." "Okay I wont." With that I hung up the phone. I went into the mall.

~~~~~~~2 hours later~~~~~~~~

(I hate writing shopping scenes since I hate shopping so thats why I didn't put it in.)

I was leaving the mall when Martin texted me:

M: Hey cuz. You finally out of there?

H: Yeah. I kinda broke out of there but you know I'm still free from that place 😝 haha

M: How? 😳

H: I had a little help... 😈 haha

M: You little devil! I knew you were never the little angel you pretend to be haha you gotta tell me the whole story

H: Its too long to send in a text 😕 but next time I see you I will tell you everything

M: How bout you come hang with my friends and I and tell all of us the story

H: Sure! Where yall at

M: Go to bank Midwest and we'll all be there now hurry your ass up and get here

H: I'm on my way see ya in a few I'm gonna go so I can drive and not die or worse get pulled over haha see ya in a few

I put my phone away and drive to the bank. The whole way there I was jamming out to 80s Rock n roll. Right as I was pulling in to the bank parking lot the song bad to the bone came on. I cranked it up and rolled down my windows. Martin gave me the look that said 'really you have to play that?' And I started to laugh. I turned my music back down and and parked my car. I get out of my car and I hear a few cat calls from Martins friends. "Hey guys she's my cousin so shut the hell up!" Martin yelled at his friends. I gave him a hug. "So how in the actual fuck did you break out of that place?" Martin asked. All of his friends seem intrigued by his question and stopped what they were doing to listen.

I told them all the story and by the end all of them were calling me the school's new badass. Suddenly my phone started to ring, it was my dad. "Hello?" I answer. "Hey when are going to come home?" My dad questions me. "I'm with Martin right now but I'll be home in just a few minutes." I reply and hang up. "Well guys I hate to say this but I gotta get home. Sorry y'all." I give Martin a hug again and get in my car and leave. When I got home I took all of my stuff to my room and took of my shoes. I went to find my dad. I found him in his lazy boy recliner with a beer watching tv. "So what happened today?" My dad asks. I tell him everything. At the end of the story he starts aughing, "Well I never thought the school would be that strict. But I'm glad you stood up for yourself and got out of there. I will go and talk to the school before monday to get everything cleared up before you go to school." He got out of his chair, "Well I am going to bed good night Hope." With that he dissapeared down the hall to his room. I sigh and head to my room to go to bed. Once in my room I change into my shorts and sports bra to sleep in. I turn on pandora radio with my favorite station playing, 80s Rock. I get in bed and curl up for the night. The song wanted dead or alive by Bon Jovi was the last song I heard before going to sleep.
