Don't Run, Don't Trip

Modern day Tokyo, Japan.

Classroom 17-A, Tokyo Community College.

It's a beautiful Thursday afternoon, the cherry blossom trees blooming, turtle doves

chirping. And the beautiful scenery of Tokyo Community College.

Mrs.Nahihara is vigorously teaching the Class 17-A. 21 of the 22 students are eagerly

listening to the lecture as the upcoming midterms are approaching at an alarming rate.

As the class listens, sitting way in the back is JacQuarius Kawasaki; deep asleep.

Snoring quite mildly, with his head in between his crossed arms. Due to his odd

schedule of working all night, JacQuarius treats his class as a time for naps, which

thoroughly explains the hate Mrs.Nahihara has for him and his failing grades.

Daniel Nakimura, JacQuarius's lifelong best friend, attempts to wake him up.

"Kawasaki-san, Kawasaki-san wake up!" Daniel aggressively whispers, as he tries not to

gain the attention of the rest of the class.

He then begins to tap on JacQuarius's shoulder with quite some force, eventually

waking him up. "Kawasaki-san, are we still working tonight?" Daniel asks in a curious

manner.

"Aye my nigga, I know damn well you didnt wake me up to ask me that dumb ass

question. Me, You, and Lil Joey got a shift at D-Mobile tonight." JacQuarius replies in

an angry manner as he begins to wake up. JacQuarius then grunts and pulls out his iCell

13 pro from his left pocket in his Mike Amiri black star jeans. He begins to scroll

through tweeter and casually like a few chirps.

Mrs.Nahihara sees JacQuarius and begins to boil with extreme anger, with all the

gradual tension and continuous disrespect, she explodes at JacQuarius. "Kawasaki-san, I'm genuinely tired of your disrespect, get the hell out of my classroom,

you're suspended for the rest of the week!" Mrs.Nahihara shouts as she points and

makes various hand motions at him.

The entire class begins to stare at him, sending shivers down JacQuarius's back. " Wait

hold on Mrs.Nahihara, can it at least wait until lunch? Nigga I'm starving." JacQuarius

looking befuddled, replies in a hesitant manner.

"No Kawasaki-san! Leave before I call security!" She says as she begins to approach him.

JacQuarius, visibly upset, with a smirk on his face then begins to leave. As he walks out

of the classroom, he hears various snickers and remarks from his various classmates.

Mrs.Nahihara whispers a slight remark in Japanese then shuts the door on his exit.

With a smile on her face, she continues teaching the class on the subject of chemistry.

"Bitch got me fucked up, lemme call my nigga lil joey and see what he on, fuck this

school shit on god." JacQuarius mumbles to himself as he walks down the narrow empty

hallway towards the school's main entrance.

He then pulls out his iCell 13 pro and calls Lil joey to pick him up. After a short 5-10

minute conversation, he begins to listen to All In by NBA Youngboy, as he waits for Lil

Joey to arrive.

After about 38 minutes, Lil joey finally arrives. " What up lil nigga, I'm starvin like

marvin let's go get some lunch before that shit end." He tells JacQuarius, and they begin

to walk in the school and towards the cafeteria.

They both sneakily enter the cafeteria and begin to get their lunch. " Chow mein, fried

rice, and orange chicken with this nasty ass soy milk every fucking time.I need some

fucking soul food, I miss my mama man." Lil Joey tells JacQuarius.

Completely ignoring what he said, JacQuarius begins to stare at one of his classmates,

Selena Nahihara, and becomes completely captivated by her beauty. Selena has been

JacQuarius's crush ever since he arrived in japan at the age of 6. He's had her in various

classes growing up, but they've never really talked. They would at most be considered

acquaintances.

But that never can stop a man from dreaming.

"Nigga stop looking at that bitch. Let's keep it a 100, my nigga. We broke hood niggas

with no rep, no future and nothing to offer but dick & problems, she aint fucking with

us. " Lil joey tells him.

Hearing that JacQuarius becomes a tad bit discouraged but due to his hood nature he

will never give up. "You right, but you're also wrong. I'm JacQuarius, AKA that Nigga.

Watch this my nigga." JacQuarius Replies as he begins to walk over to Selena's lunch

table. As he walks over he pops the collar on his Moncler jacket, fixes his Amiri jeans,

and perfectly loose laces his yeezy 700's.

Selena's surrounded by her friends, both male and female. 2 female friends to her right

and left, and 2 male friends across the table from her female friends.

JacQuarius approaches with a pimp walk, and confidently squeezes into between the

males and begins to talk to Selena with a cocky smirk on his face.

"Wassup yall. Wassup Selena, how you doing?"

Selena replies "Hey JacQuarius, I'm doing fine, but why are you here? If my mom

catches you here, then you're going to be in even more trouble. You should leave while

you can."

JacQuarius's smirk quickly fades away from his face. Feeling rejected he then hastily

replies, "With all due respect fuck yo momma. I'm tryna get to know you, this don't got

nun to do with her."

Feeling completely disrespected and filled with Anger, Selena immediately stands up,

clearly displeased from what she heard, and immediately walks out of the cafeteria with

a frown on her face.

JacQuarius, feeling incredibly confused, gets up and walks back to Lil Joey, who was

watching the whole scenario with him and Selena.

"Damn nigga, yo ass aint got no game. Yo ass need to go watch that Kai Cenat stream

and take notes about some rizz. " Lil joey jokingly states as he eats the orange chicken

from his lunch.

"Nah nigga fuck you, unlike you I keep it 100. I don't know what the fuck made her so

mad. Probably something her racist ass momma said to her about me." JacQuarius

replies as he begins stabbing his lunch with displeasure.

"Nigga ima be straight up with you. Her momma not racist, you just dumb. She got on

yo ass in class because your dumb ass not paying attention, like an actual good teacher

she wants to see you succeed but you're completely disrespecting her by doing the

complete opposite. After what yo dumb ass did, she probably finna turn racist after

Selena tells her what happened. You just disrespected Selena mom right in front of her,

I'm surprised she aint slap yo ass." Lil Joey Angrily Says with a mouthful of food.

" You right, I need to get my life together for real, I hope Selena will accept my apology, I

need a smart girl like her to fix my life on some real shit.".

" Nigga be real with yourself. She is a 5'6 blond beautiful Japanese girl with an ice spice

booty. That's million dollar pussy right there, you just a young dumb and broke nigga.

Plus I heard her momma tryna arrange her with Chao Baozao, and you know that nigga

daddy in the yakuza. Leave that bitch alone, don't die over no pussy my nigga.".

" You right. Let's leave, I gotta go home before we go to work tonight. " JacQuarius

replies as he gets up and begins to leave the cafeteria.

After leaving the school they head to JacQuarius's adopted father's house.

JacQuarius and Lil joey both are adopted from America and arrived to Japan at the age

of 6 via an international adoption exchange program.

Playing fortnite only with their friend Daniel, Daniel's parents were able to set up an

international adoption exchange program with American adoption agencies to broaden

worldwide diversity. JacQuarius Kawasaki, an 18 year old black male who is 6 foot 2

inches, 180 pounds with a slim build, a lean gut and a nice set of waves, lives with the

Kawasaki family, a long term family friend with his best friend's Nakimura family.

Lil Joey aka Jonathan Smith is a 20 year old male who is 6'4, 200 pounds, average

build with a set of short dreads. Due to his arrogant and hot head nature, he refused to

claim his adopted family's surname and was returned to the orphanage in Japan which

he escaped from and has been living on his own ever since.

"Timm you home?" JacQuarius shouts as he enters the house, looking around for his

adopted father.

"Yes I'm home, but why are you home so early? " Timm asks.

Timm Kawasaki is the adopted father of JacQuarius and has 2 biological kids of his

own, Seimaric and Mina. Their mother passed away at the birth, which left him and

JacQuarius to take care of the twins.

"Teacher was tripping again. I'm just here to pick up my shit. My niggas and I got work

tonight." JacQuarius replies as he walks to his room, completely ignoring Timm's

presence.

Timm, completely displeased by JacQuarius's recent decisions, begins to lecture him.

"If you're going to continue living here then you need to start providing for our family

and taking your studies seriously. You're getting all these Mike Amiri jeans, moncler

jackets and balenciaga bullshit instead of buying a car or providing for us. You're not a

kid anymore JacQuarius, it's time for you to start making mature decisions."

Feeling frustrated and extremely guilty from the lecture, JacQuarius grabs his LV bag

and storms out the front door.

After leaving Timm's house, 8 hours go by, eventually JacQuarius and Lil Joey pick up

Daniel from the college parking lot and head to their shift. Eventually arriving at the

D-Mobile parking lot, they scout the area, not finding anything but a few cars, some

streetlights, and night time darkness.

"Alright so here's the plan. It's closing hours, they should be sorting through the new

shipment of iCell 14 pro's. This is gang territory so watch out for anything fishy.

JacQuarius you get the Draco and be on lookout while Daniel carries the glock and gets

the phones. Neither have suppressors so don't do any unnecessary shooting. I'll wrap

around the parking lot until you guys are ready so put your shiesty's on and make this

quick. " Lil Joey instructs them as he unlocks the passenger seat and left back seat

doors.

They both do as they're told and begin their "shift". They both walk towards the back of

the building; JacQuarius carrying a draco (Mini AK assault rifle) with the magazine full

of 7.62 ammunition and Daniel carrying a small glock 30. Once they reach the back of

the building, they spot 2 Yakuza members guarding the backdoor.

"Looks like we'll need to improvise. Ok I'll hold them up while you get the phones. Text

lil joey to come wait for us now, we have to make this quick or we're fucked." JacQuarius

states as he begins sneaking up on the 2 unaware Yakuza guards.

The plan goes accordingly, Daniel enters the building and only moments later, shots

begin to fire from inside the building.

Confused and nervous, JacQuarius put's 6 bullets in both guards and runs inside to be

completely shocked from what he sees.

He runs by a 3rd dead guard and finds Daniel with the box of phones.

"Daniel what the fuck did you do? Nigga you just made this shit hot, now the yakuza

and the police gonna be on our ass! " JacQuarius yells as he begins to run out the

building.

"Kawasaki-san, they saw us through the cameras, they already expected us and called

for backup before we even arrived. We're done for, go warn Smith-San. " Daniel cries

out as he starts running as well.

JacQuarius sprints towards the car and fills Lil Joey in on the situation. Due to the

weight of the box full of phones, Daniel falls very behind. As JacQuarius gets in the car,

4 suburban trucks pull up, completely outnumbering them, a vast amount of Yakuza

guards get out and begin to surround Lil Joey's car.

"JacQuarius where the fuck is daniel, he is taking too long, he literally has 10 seconds or

we're all dead. " Lil Joey screams as shivers are sent down his spine from the sight of the

Yakuza members.

5 seconds later, Daniel begins full sprinting towards the car. As he begins his final

sprint, the Yakuza guards begin to aim their various automatic rifles at Lil Joey's car.

With the various guns all aimed at him, JacQuarius begins to pray in the passenger seat

and cry at the same time.

Daniel is finishing his last steps to the car. He begins to grab the door handle, as he

does in a life or death situation, Lil Joey drives off and leaves Daniel and the phones

behind.
