In a town called Jasper, in Nevada state United States, a fourteen years old is walking home from school. He's in the eighth, standing at Five' seven" and he hasn't even hit puberty yet. His mom says he'll take after his dad in height, which Jack brushes off. He stops at a cafe, grabbing a slice of monkey bread. Eating it, passing an alley, Jack hears a noise. He reaches Into his pocket, pulling out the pocket knife he has and flips the blade.
Walking down the alley, Jack whips around as a bag falls and a girl looks at him. Jack stands confused on what to do but he shakes his head, putting the knife away and kneels so not to scare the girl. "Hey, I'm Jack. Jack Darby. What's your name and where do you live." He asks. The girl, dirty with dirt, dried blood and who knows what else, flinches away. "Please, don't hurt me." She mutters softly. Jack raises his hands, back up and sitting on his butt. He thinks of what he can do than reaches into the paper bag he has still, pulling out the other slice of monkey bread.
Jack unwraps it, setting it down and backs up. The girl uncurls, she looks at the bread, reaching a hand out. Taking the bread, she slowly eats it. When done, she takes the water bottle Jack offers, drinking it. The girl looks at Jack "I'm Clara. I don't want to go back to my dad. He's evil." Jack nods, holding a hand out. "Want to come with me. My mom's a nurse. You'll be safe." Jack says. Clara thinks, she than puts her hand in his and Jack leads her home.
Two months fly by, the courts granting cositdy of Clara to June. Jack is happy, thou, the two have grown closer than friends, becoming boyfriend and girlfriend the month pier. Jack becomes very protective of Clara, even fighting to protect her everywhere they go, Clara finding it hot.
One day, the two are at the cliff twenty minutes outside Jasper looking at the setting sun. Jack holds Clara as they sit on the edge. Just as the sun touches the Earth, shots rang out, Jack grabs Clara and the two run. While running, a thud sounds, large metal hand grabs the two and picks them up. Jack looks at blood red eyes, he's scared but doesn't show it so not to freak Clara out.
The sound of metal shifting is heard as a female's voice is heard "Let them go, Starscream."
