Camp Crystal Lake: Chapter 1

Requested by @yellowjacketsbuzzbuzz

Joel Miller x f!reader (romance/horror)

Setting: Camp Crystal Lake

The reader is taking on the position of a camp counselor at the infamous Camp Crystal Lake. While she begins to enjoy her summer, even crushing on the camp director Joel, a killer lurks in the woods unbeknownst to anyone.

Every town in North America has a ghost story. Some are well kept secrets, and others are so notorious that the sins of those tales have spread far and wide, to every dark corner of the earth. Crystal Lake was a sterling example of such a place. It had a typical sounding name, really, for a fresh body of water in the middle of the New England woods. But the stories surrounding the area were anything but typical.

As a young child, I remember hearing his name being said on the playgrounds at school. Jason. It didn’t take me long to insert myself into conversations in an attempt to hear the details of whatever version of the story the older kids were spreading. Back then it didn’t matter if they were fact or fiction. I stayed up late, wide eyed staring at every dark corner of my bedroom after hearing tales of Jason Voorhees. Now, at 22 years old and about to enter the summer as a counselor at Camp Crystal Lake, those distant, childish memories made me grin; though when my rusty, Jeep Wrangler bounced down the uneven road past the wooden Camp Crystal Lake sign, the hairs rose just a bit on the back of my neck.

“I thought you outgrew superstition,” I said quietly to myself as a song ended on my playlist, leaving me in a few extra seconds of silence to take in the wooded surroundings.

Jason Voorhees. The name still creeped everyone out. Yes, there had been a tragedy that happened decades earlier. Jason Voorhees was real; but after several attacks on counselors and residents alike, a boy named Tommy Jarvis managed to put Jason to rest permanently.

I shuddered and reminded myself that that was decades ago. I wasn’t even alive when it all happened. And this new camp wasn’t anywhere near the original location of the attacks on that Friday the 13th back in the 80’s.

I saw a pale yellow VW Bug parked up ahead next to a blue Ford pickup truck. On the opposite side of the truck was a Bronco with about as much rust as my Jeep. I began to wonder what my coworkers would be like. Would they be my age? Younger? Older? Local? I was about to find out.

I parked in the clearing beside the VW and stared out at the lake a few hundred yards away. There was a small beach with a towering, white lifeguard stand in the center and a wooden raft floating too not far from the patch of sand. If nothing else, it would be a great summer gig with a view. The campers wouldn’t be here for several weeks and I knew getting the place ready would call for some physical labor. I never minded hands-on work, and I was sure it would give us all time to bond.

When I exited the vehicle, a breeze hit me from the water and I shuddered, despite the temperatures nearing eighty degrees on the late June afternoon. My eyes scanned the trees on all sides and I suddenly wondered where everyone was. I let farfetched ‘what-ifs’ filter through my mind for a second before smirking to myself.

Grow up, I scolded myself lightheartedly. The imaginative part of me still enjoyed the folklore, no matter how juvenile it felt.

I popped open the back of the Jeep and reached in to grab my suitcase, an oversized gym bag and a backpack that housed the majority of my clothes. I had a few stray boxes with makeup and hair products, among other toiletries, though I decided I’d come back for them later.

Again, I took in my surroundings. For some reason I half-expected to see a group of young people out-and-about in the immediate area upon arrival. The silence was beginning to hit my psyche harder than I’d like to admit, and so I stared up at an oversized cabin with wooden paneling and headed in that direction.

A hammock swung empty on a giant front porch that was littered with chairs and small tables in between. Above them hung metal lighting fixtures, some of which were swinging in the summer breeze.

And then I heard a sound I could only compare to clicking. It was like a clock, almost. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

I set my suitcase down near the bottom step and shrugged the gym bag off my shoulder so it rested beside it, leaving my backpack on. And then I followed the sound.

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.

What is that?

I swallowed hard as the noise grew louder. It stopped for a second and then there was a louder noise. A faint bang. And then a pause. Another bang.

What the hell is that?

I rounded the side of the two-story cabin and peeked my head around to see if I could get a glimpse of whatever, or whoever, was responsible for the sound. Visions of Jason Voorhees and his menacing hockey mask left my mind immediately when the truth revealed itself.

A muscular man in a flannel shirt with the sleeves rolled up past his elbows swung an ax, connecting with a giant log of wood. It split into two, sending little shards flying into the air. He wiped his forehead with his arm and then reached for another.

I wasn’t sure if I should tiptoe back to the front porch or interrupt him, but my mind was made up by default when he slowly turned in my direction. When he smiled beneath a mustache, I blushed and glanced at the open area of his chest where a few buttons were undone.

“Hello.” He gave a wave and wiped sweat off his forehead again before removing a pair of work gloves.

I raised my hand and swallowed hard. “Hi.”

The man approached and extended an arm in my direction. I stared down at his hand for a second before joining mine to his in a handshake. Our eyes met and I felt my eyebrows raise unwillingly.

“I’m Joel Miller,” he introduced himself, slightly out of breath. “I did the phone interview with you back in March and a second one in April. (Y/N), right?”

“Yeah.” I nodded and cleared my throat with a smile.

“I’m the camp director,” he informed me with a nod.

“Nice to meet you.” My hand was still in his and finally they parted.

Joel nodded in agreement. “I’m just finishing up here. I think we have one more person to arrive today before the rest come in the middle of the week. You can get yourself settled in whatever room is still available and I’ll be in in a few minutes.”

“Okay.” I nodded, “Thank you.”

“Thank you.”

When he smiled again I might as well have turned to stone. Who knew my boss for the summer would be such a.. hunk.

Well shit. It’s thirty seconds into the summer and I’m already crushing on my boss. I added, what a lovely predicament.

Post 1008

Brandon L Pawlak, Ohio inmate A672523, born 1988, incarceration intake in 2015 at age 27, scheduled for release 05/24/2050

Theft, Aggravated Robbery, Aggravated Assault with a Vehicle, Braking and Entering, Failure to Comply

In 2015, a 27-year-old Cleveland man was sentenced to 35 1/2 years in prison for crashing a stolen truck into a bar, badly injuring 13 people.

Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Deena Calabrese imposed the sentence on Brandon Pawlak after hearing from victims of the crash and their relatives talk of lingering physical pain and mental anguish.

"You have created and caused havoc in our society," Calabrese told Pawlak. "Drivers like yourself don't care about the safety of other people, what they care about is themselves, and that's what you cared about that night."

Earlier, a jury found Pawlak guilty of 30 of the 32 counts he faced. That included aggravated robbery, aggravated vehicular assault, failure to comply with the orders of a police officer, grand theft, and breaking and entering.

Pawlak stole one vehicle early on the morning of Oct. 23, 2014, then stole another truck from the Sweetbriar Golf Club in Avon Lake around 8:30 p.m. the same day.

Police were called to the golf club and chased Pawlak in the stolen white Ford F-250 pickup at high speeds for five minutes through Avon and Westlake. A police officer threw "stop sticks" on the road, and Pawlak eventually lost control and the truck careened into the Dover Gardens Tavern.

Many of the patrons were at the tavern to watch Thursday night football. Although no one was killed, 13 people were taken to the hospital that night. Four had to be flown to a second hospital to handle their severe injuries.

Pawlak's mother, Karen Boyd, told the judge that she's sorry for the victims, but her son is not a bad person. "Sometimes good people make bad decisions and it doesn't mean they're monsters or have evil hearts."

Brandon Pawlak told the families he feels bad about what happened to them, and that he prays for them every day. He asked for their forgiveness, but insisted he was not the driver of the truck, just a passenger. He said he plans to appeal his conviction.

But Judge Calabrese countered that video played during trial shows Pawlak exiting the truck from what appears to be the driver's side. Calabrese also referred to Pawlak's criminal record dating to 1998, including a conviction for failure to comply in 2011. In that case, Pawlak led Cleveland police on a brief chase before causing an accident.

Those Summer Nights [Jotaro Kujo x reader]

Masterlist << Previous chapter ｜Next chapter

-------------------------------------------------------

Chapter two, Rydell High and the greasers

*Monday, 1.st p.o.v, Y/n*

“DARLING! COME DOWNSTAIRS!” Mom screamed from the bottom of the stairs.

I groaned in my pillow as I got up from my bed, “Good God… I’M COMING IN MINUTE!” I shouted back and was met with silence.

“Classic.” I muttered under my breath as I got out of bed and put on slippers and walked downstairs.

“I’m here mom… And… Why did you call me down this early? It’s like 6 a.m and I have to get to school at 7:15 a.m” I said and mom looked at me with a raised eyebrow, “...Y/n, you lived on a farm all your life. Did the Winfield air get into your head already?” she asked and I laughed.

“Oh, don’t worry, I was only joking.” I said as I tried to defend myself. Mom shook her head and motioned at the front doors.

“Your father is waiting outside for you, and hurry up!” Mom pushed me a little and she furrowed her eyebrows.

‘What in the hell does dad need me now..?’ I thought as I stepped outside with my fluffy slippers.

And lo and behold, on the drive in stood my father with a brand new car next to him, the keys of the car dangling from his finger.

“Close your mouth or you’re going to catch flies.” Dad chuckled as he walked over to me and dangled the car keys in front of my shocked face.

“What? You’re at a loss of words?” dad asked jokingly and I still gaped at the new and polished car.

“I- How- But why-” I tried to form a sentence but closed my mouth.

Dad laughed as he patted me on her back, “You see… Me and your mom want you to fit in with the kids here, and I don’t think that riding around with our beat up pickup truck will help. Besides, we know you have whined for a car since 7th grade.” he said and I gently took the car keys from him.

The car looked like it was from that one magazine I’ve read in Daleville.

It was dark blue with two big white stripes going from the front to the back. [Car look reference https://imgur.com/a/eN4tMql ]

“I didn’t know that Ford Mustangs were so wanted on the market, but I got a special deal since I know how happy you would be.” Dad smiled warmly as he adjusted his button up shirt.

“I- Thank you dad-” I whispered as I launched herself into his arms.

“Alright, kiddo- You’re starting to choke me now-” Dad wheezed out as he pulled away from my strong gripp, “Oops, sorry ‘bout that…” I sheepishly laughed and dad only patted my head.

“I have to get going to my new workplace, and you should start getting ready.” he noted as he pointed to my fluffy slippers.

“Bye dad!” I exclaimed in embarrassment as I rushed inside and started to get ready. Once I was done, I ate the breakfast that mom prepared and of course went into the yard and had a decent petting session with Bucky.

Once I washed my hands and got my bag with books, I bid goodbye to Bucky and mom. I entered my brand new Ford Mustang and grinned, “This machine is so much better that our red tin can…” I laughed as I pulled out of the driveway and started to drive out of the neighborhood.

I noticed the stares she was getting as she entered the center of town. I passed the restaurants, cinemas and many more until I reached the high and mighty, Rydell High.

My confidence began to deflate as soon as I noticed just how many people were outside and chatting.

“Maybe… If I stay in my car for a few minutes. Hehehe…” I laughed awkwardly as I noticed the stares from the students who began to whisper ‘discreetly’.

I parked the car in a free spot and adjusted my black skirt that reached past my knees and f/c coloured blouse with a bow tied at the collar.

“Next time I’m not asking mom for fashion tips.” I muttered and took a deep breath, exiting the new car as I locked it.

I gulped and looked around the huge yard, looking for Tommy who was supposed to wait for me at the entrance.

As I looked one more time I spotted the dirty blonde guy. I tightly grabbed my leather school bag and began to walk towards Tommy.

I could see the people staring at me, but I tried to ignore it.

I noticed Tommy being surrounded by a group of six girls and all of them were laughing and giggling while two of them were wrapped around his arms.

‘Should I say something… Or should I wait?’ I thought and just as I was about to stop a few feet away from Tommy and his groupie, he noticed me and tore away from the girls’ grip.

“Y/n! Nice to see that you’ve made it! By the way, you have an awesome car! I didn’t know you out of all people would have such a beast.” Tommy laughed.

‘Ouch… This guy never really learned to give a compliment, did he?’ I thought bitterly as I tightly smiled.

“What can I say, looks can deceive…” I mumbled out and noticed the glares I was receiving from the six girls.

Tommy also noticed this and laughed, “Oh! How rude of me! Girls, this is Y/n L/n, the new student from Daveville-”

“It’s Daleville.” I quickly interrupted Tommy who only cleared up his throat, “Yeah, yeah Davevill, Danville- whatever. But anyway, I want you all to be nice to her, okay?” he asked and all of them smiled at him and said yes.

Tommy grinned and motioned for me to follow him, “Don’t worry about them, they just don’t like new people…” Tommy said with a reassuring smile.

‘Reminds me of a certain hissing feline…’ I internally rolled my eyes and nodded.

His fangirls followed close to the both of us, whispering God knows what.

As Tommy was showing me around the school, he noticed the absence of his fangirls. “Not this shit again?” Tommy whispered as he looked around the hallway and noticed the six girls walking into the opposite direction.

“Tommy? What's the matter?” I asked in confusion and Tommy only rolled his eyes, “For the hundredth time, it’s Thomas- And you’ll have to excuse me for a second-” he muttered as he rushed back to his fangirls who were obviously going back to the entrance to look for somebody who had just arrived.

And now I was left standing alone in the middle of a crowded hallway.

I had my schedule which arrived via mail but I didn’t know where the rest of my classes were since my guide, Tommy, ran away.

“Good God… I’ll murder him when I see him…” I muttered angrily but I was all of a sudden tapped on the shoulder. I turned around and was met with two girls smiling.

One had short blonde hair with bangs, green eyes and was wearing brown flared out pants with a pink shirt with flower print on it along with brown leather sandals.

The other one had longer brown hair with a headband, hazel eyes and was wearing a yellow plaid dress with white flats and she had a small yellow hair clip in her hair.

“Hi… We noticed you were lost and we wanted to know if you needed any help?” the blond one began and the brunette girl nodded in agreement.

I sighed in defeat and nodded my head, “Yeah… This guy Tommy- I mean Thomas was supposed to show me the rest of the school but he ran off to chase his fangirls.”

The two girls’ eyes widened at the mention of Tommy’s name as they both looked at each other, “Thomas… As in a rich looking guy with dirty blonde hair and always wears polo shirts?” the brunette girl asked and I nodded.

“Yeah… that’s him.” I said and they started to laugh hysterically, “OH GOD! THAT DUNCE!” The blond one slapped the other girl's shoulder as they both howled with laughter.

I just stood there, waiting for them to finish their laughing fit.

They both calmed down and the blond girl offered me her hand with a grin, “Name’s Sheri Hoffman, nice to meet you. And this is Lisa Carter, ``she said with a warm smile.

“Nice to meet you both, I’m Y/n L/n… And let me just get out my schedule and maybe you can help me.” Y/n said as she pulled out her class schedule and gave it to Sheri and Lisa.

“Well, Y/n, you're in luck because you share all your classes with us… And with that brat Tommy…” Lisa said and Sheri nodded with a frown.

“How do you even know each other?” Sheri asked as she fixed her blond hair.

“We’re actually new neighbors.” Y/n said and Sheri and Lisa looked at each other with beliverment.

“You know what? I need a chair to sit down because of this… Let’s get going to class.” Sheri said and all three of them headed to their first class.

‘I can’t believe I already made friends! Bingo!’ I thought in excitement as I followed Sheri and Lisa.

*time skip, the end of school*

Well, the classes went on fine, nothing new, except that Tommy had to butt into everyone's sentence and finish it for them. Good God, does that guy ever shut up?

Sheri and Lisa went home through the back entrance, since they had their own rides home. And we exchanged our numbers so we can stay in contact.

As I was walking down the bustling hallway I noticed more eyes looking at me.

Gee, did these Rydell High kids never learn that it was rude to stare at somebody?

But I ignored it, since I didn’t want to have any conflict happen on my first day of school.

As I walked out I was met with students laughing at something. As I fought my way through the crowd and started to walk towards my car, I noticed at what everyone as laughing at,

My new vandalized car.

I gasped at the horrendous sight as I rushed to my Ford Mustang and observed the damage. It had scratches all over the windows and it was spray painted on the doors.

I looked around myself and the laughing crowd disappeared.

“Cowards…” I muttered bitterly as I crouched down and tried to wipe some spray paint off the car. I spent 20 minutes doing so but I was slowly starting to lose my nerves.

Tommy already went home, and so did Sheri and Lisa…. And I certainly couldn’t show up home with my car looking like this.

I started to wipe down the spray paint more aggressively, but nothing was coming off. As 10 minutes passed, the school's parking lot was almost empty and the school was now closed.

I sat onto the curb of the sidewalk and put my elbows on my knees and put my chin on my palms, thinking of a way to explain this to my parents.

All of a sudden a shadow was cast over me and I looked up, only to be met with a guy with black hair.

“Uh… Hello?” I asked the guy, a bit dejected. He didn’t say anything to me and looked at my vandalized car.

I looked at him with an raised eyebrow as he walked closer to the dark blue Ford Mustang and scoffed.

“Those bastards really outdid themselves…” he muttered out and I nodded my head, “Yeah, they created a true masterpiece.” I replied sarcastically. I took a closer look at him and noted his appearance.

He was tall, taller than Tommy, had jet black hair that was greased up but had a bang falling over his forehead, aquamarine colored eyes and was wearing dark blue jeans with a white shirt and a notable black leather jacket.

A sudden flashback flew over my head as I remember Tommy describing those ‘hooligans’ when I was at his house for dinner with my family.

‘Was he the one who did this and was just trying to cover it up?’ my mind raced with various options, but should I really trust Tommy’s word after Sheri and Lisa told me everything they knew about him?

Why do I have to choose such things in such stressful situations!?

“Well… Are you going to just look at it or what?” I asked the guy with irritation as I got up and dusted off my skirt.

He glanced at me and raised an eyebrow, “Good grief, you’re that new girl in the school, aren't you?” he asked all of a sudden, completely ignoring my question.

I nodded my head, not having any energy to argue, “Yeah, I am. Why do you ask?” I asked him.

“Because you apparently smell like chicken food, and- they were partly right. But they didn’t include you having this Ford Mustang.” the guy said as he motioned to my vandalized car.

“I SMELL LIKE CHICKEN FOOD ? WHO TOLD YOU THAT!?” I raged as my face flushed in embarrassment. How is that even possible? I put on a ton of perfume and what not shit I found in the bathroom.

The guy looked at me, unfazed by my yelling and shrugged his shoulders, “It was a group of some girls walking by me and thinking I was listening to them or something. You already got yourself a reputation, chicken girl.” the guy said and I fought my urge to kick him and smash his head against the curb.

“Did you just… call me… Chicken girl?” I asked in disbelief. What is with these Rydell High kids?

“I did.” The guy simply replied. I groaned internally and clenched my fist. “Okay, oil grease, do you know any mechanics near here so I can get my fucking car fixed?” I asked as I crossed my arms.

The guy rolled his eyes and ran a hand through his greased up hair, “I do… And that’s me.” he said. My expression fell as the words hit my ear.

Really? Was this some kind of joke?

“You're joking, right? How much did Tommy pay you?” I asked the guy.

“That fuck face didn’t pay me anthing, and I’m telling the truth. I can fix your car until midnight.” he said and I looked at him, unconvinced.

Should I trust him? What if he wants to kidnap me? But my thoughts wandered off to my raging parents and I made up my mind.

I’m going to trust this grease oil guy.

“Fine by me, where is your car repair shop then?” I asked him as I unlocked my car and got in the driver's seat. Thank God they didn’t scratch out this glass.

“Well, what are you waiting for, grease boy? Get in.” I said, motioning for him to get in.

“No, you get out. You’ll get lost.” he said and I rolled my eyes, “And how do you know that?” I asked him, not moving from my seat.

“Good grief, you’re making this more difficult than it has to be.” He muttered out as he grabbed me by my arms, got me out of the car and sat down.

I opened my mouth but I stopped myself as I saw him adjust his seat and turn on the car.

“You know what? I’m not even going to argue.” I scoffed as I got into the front passenger's seat next to him and crossed my arms.

“Well then? Aren’t you going to start to drive?” I asked him, still salty, about what he did a few moments ago. “I will, but drop the attitude, chicken girl.” he said and I gave him a glare.

“For your information, my name’s Y/n L/n and not chicken girl, you kind of mispronounced it.” I replied to him as he began to drive from the school.

“Well, I’m Jotaro Kujo, and not oil grease.” he retorted back with sass.

‘Jotaro Kujo, you say? Interesting… tomorrow I’m going to ask Sheri and Lisa about him…’ I thought as I noticed the scene change.

From nice buildings, restaurants and many more, we came to what seemed a poorer side of Winfielt. Or ‘the East side’ as Tommy referred to it.

Jotaro noticed me looking around, well as much as I could, because of the scratch out side windows.

“Yeah, this is the East side. I think that somebody already told you about us?” Jotaro asked with a slight frown.

“What do you mean, ‘us’? I asked him. “By ‘us’ I mean the greasers, the people who live in the East side.” he answered, well more like scoffed.

“Greasers? Is that because of your greasy hair?” I joked and Jotaro only glanced at me, warning me to shut up. Damn, he doesn’t even joke…

For ten more minutes we spent riding in awkward silence across the East side with my vandalized car until I noticed a car repair shop nearing us.

“Is that it?” I asked with hope. “It is, now get out.” he motioned for me to get out and I quickly exited my car.

I opened my mouth to ask him something but a group of four similarly dressed guys excited through open garage doors and greeted Jotaro with smirks.

They even had similar hair styles, but they all had matching light blue vests with their name tags, probably the car repair shop uniform.

“Jotaro! Where were you- HOLLY SHIT! The fuck happened to this beauty?!” One brunette guy fell onto his knees as he touched my car. He still didn’t notice until he looked up and met my gaze.

He tapped Jotaro on the shoulder and everyone quieted down as they looked at me with judgemental looks.

“... And who’s she? She’s one of your fangirls? You know what we think about that.” the same guy said as he quickly scrambled off the ground and dusted his jeans on.

“No, she isn’t, and that's her car that got vandalized today. She just came with me to wait for the whole repair to finish and go back home.” Jotaro said briefly and got back into the car and drove it into the garage.

The four guys looked at me strangely, and all of a sudden the shortest, and probably the youngest, walked in front of me and stretched out his hand.

“I’m Danny. Nice to meet you.” he said as he swept up his dirty blond hair away from his face.

“Nice to meet you Danny. I’m Y/n.” I said as I shook his hand gently. “This is my older brother Dean-” he motioned to a basically older version of himself and Dean only winked in my direction.

I politely waved, not saying anything. “Then, the smoke addict Michael, and next to him, the red head, is called Kakyoin.” Danny pointed to the two last guys.

And as of cue, Michael lit up his cigarette and pointed the lighter towards Danny, “Call me that again and I’ll use you as an ashtray, ‘kay?” he threatened and Danny laughed.

“Whatever you say, chimney man.” Danny replied and Michale scoffed as he swept up his dark brown hair.

Kakyoin rolled his eyes and went to me, “I think you should go inside, you know- to see your car getting repaired.” He made up an excuse as he pulled me inside the car repair shop.

I saw Jotaro wiping down the spray paint with some kind of chemical as its smell spread through the whole workshop.

“This is going to take a while as Jotaro likes to nitpick and shit… And you’re in luck, we have some car glasses for your car.” Kakyoin said as he motioned me to sit down on a plastic chair by a small table.

“Do you know how to play poker?” Kakyoin asked as he pulled out a pack of cards.

I nodded with a smirk, “Oh, you bet I do. I was the best in Daleville.” I said with pride in my voice.

“We’ll see about that one.” Kakyoin laughed as we began to play and the others pilled in to watch us play poker while Jotaro worked on my car.

“Wait wait wait, shouldn’t you be helping him or something?” I asked as I noticed the rest of the crew still watching us play, including Kakyoin. The guys looked at each other and scrambled to help Jotaro.

I laughed to myself as I looked at them flying around the workshop to get the necessary parts.

After a few hours passed I dozed off as I was sitting on the plastic chair with cars still in my hands. But I was awakened by the light shaking of my arm and I looked up only to see Kakyoin.

“Hey, Jotaro finished repairing your Mustang and we were planning on going to a diner now. After you pay him the price, say that we left to go to Frankie’s, he knows where that is.” Kakyoin said and I nodded my head as I got up.

The guys left and it was now only me and Jotaro in the workshop.

I walked over to Jotaro only to see my car, repaired and polished. It looked like it didn’t even leave my driveway.

“I… Thank you, Jotaro. You helped me out a bunch.” I thanked him and Jotaro only nodded.

“... No problem, and that would be… 5,000 $.” Jotaro said and I sweated a bit. My dumb ass forgot to bring any money with me today, not even a ten dollar bill.

Jotaro turned to look at me with a raised eyebrow, “Good grief… don’t tell me you don’t have the money?” he groaned out and I rubbed the nape of my neck in embarrassment.

“I don’t have it… But I can give it to you tomorrow after school?” I suggested and Jotaro looked at me unconvinced.

“And how do I know you will do that? I don’t like people who lie.” Jotaro said in a low tone and chills went down my spine. ‘Okay this guy is seriously scary…’ I thought as I gulped.

“Well, you’ll just have to trust me…” I laughed awkwardly as he put the car keys into my hand and scoffed, leaving a black smear on my palm.

“Alright, I expect to see that five grand by tomorrow after school. Good luck on getting it.” Jotaro said and I nodded my head, “Don’t worry about it! It will be a piece of cake!” I said as I got in my car and started the engine.

I pulled out of the workshop and started to drive in the exact direction I remembered Jotaro driving and once I finally reached my neighborhood I noticed mom and dad standing by the doors.

I parked my car in the driveway and got out and took out my school bag.

“Hi mom… Hi dad…” I said as Iwaved at them with an embarrassed expression. Mom rushed to me and started to ask me all sorts of detailed questions.

“Mom- MOM! Calm down! I took two of my new friends for a drive around the town and they were showing me around.” I lied to them and both of them looked at each other and nodded.

“Oh- Thank goodness that you’re okay… Imagine if those greasers kidnaped you or something!” Dad exclaimed and I laughed with him in agreement.

“Yup! But oh well, I’m kind of tired and I need to go greet Bucky.” I excused myself and ran inside.

I walked into the backyard and Bucky went rushing to me and whining. “I know Bucky… I missed you too…” I cooed to him and he barked back. I heard distant hissing and looked at the fence, and it showed Princess hissing at Bucky.

“Good God, really? You know what, Bucky! Go get her!” I exclaimed and Bucky didn’t even get to bark once because Princess jumped inside her yard and hid.

I laughed and gave Bucky his fresh food and water and went inside and ate dinner and told my parents about my whole day.

Expect the part where my car got vandalized, of course.

I got ready to sleep after putting all the books I needed for tomorrow and laid down on my bed. The scenes from the car shop still playing in my head.

But most importantly, how in the fuck do I plan on getting those five grand by tomorrow morning!?

I closed my eyes and forced myself to dream of picking up money from a tree. Maybe this will somehow work out…

But tomorrow, the money she has to pay Jotaro won’t be her biggest worry yet…

Ford's Electric Vehicle Experiment Was an Open Wound That Could Never Heal

Electric vehicles are the future, they said. They’re the quintessential pain in the backside that isn’t worth the money and a resource drainer for the working family. Who am I kidding? These cars aren’t for people like us. It’s for rich, wealthy, woke whites who think they’re doing their part in going green. They’re really setting up their families to freeze to death when the battery dies as temperatures dip.

In Canada, one man detailed how these vehicles were the greatest scam of the modern era, given the $130,000-plus investment he sunk into this cockamamie lefty idea. When the EV line costs your company billions, maybe that’s a sign that this goes beyond overhead and research costs—customers don’t want it. For every Ford F-150 Lightning sold, which Joe Biden was infamously photographed driving early in his term, it cost Ford $36,000. So, how is the car giant going to fix this? They will shift their focus toward making more gas-powered cars—the ones that make money (via NY Post):

Ford announced that it would be increasing production of gas-powered pickup trucks while cutting down on its electric F-150 Lightning https://t.co/PaNW37y5o6 pic.twitter.com/zSxyOfi3jJ— Reuters (@Reuters) January 20, 2024

Ford Motor said Friday it would reduce production of its F-150 Lightning pickup truck, as demand for electric vehicles softens. The No. 2 US automaker said it would cut production at its Michigan Rouge Electric Vehicle Center to one shift starting April 1. In October, the automaker said it would temporarily cut one of three shifts at the Michigan plant that builds the electric F-150 Lightning pickup truck. The announcement is the latest sign of slowing demand for EV trucks. General Motors in October postponed the opening of a $4 billion electric truck plant in Michigan for a year. […] Ford said a few dozen employees could be impacted at component plants supporting F-150 Lightning production. Ford lost an estimated $36,000 on each of the 36,000 EVs it delivered to dealers in the third quarter, the company said in October, after announcing earlier it would slow the ramp-up of money-losing EVs, shifting investment to Ford’s commercial vehicle unit and citing plans to quadruple sales of gas-electric hybrids over the next five years.

These cars' batteries also need to be charged for what seems like every other hour. Second, you need to upgrade your grid and install charging stations at your home and place of employment. That expense soars into the tens of thousands on top of the overpriced and laughably unreliable vehicle whose battery life is halved when it gets colder. Leah wrote about how winter has become the grim reaper for Teslas in Chicago. These cars just die.

Until we’ve successfully duplicated what Keanu Reeves did in Chain Reaction, just buy a gas-powered car.
