Brixford, yeah it's probably the most well known town in the county. We have it all here, seriously. You won't find no place quite as unique as Brixford in England. We have the druggies, the poshies, you name it, they're here. Yeah, we ain't the nicest place around, but we sure ain't the worst, said Jacob to his grandparents.

The town was recently left on it's knees after a murder rocked headlines across the country. Grandma was instantly on the phone to Jacob as soon as she heard, she felt it was her duty to keep Jacob safe. 'Grandma, it's all alright', Jacob said holding his grandmothers hand tight. No one, and I mean no one is messing with me without getting through the Navets. Jacob's grandma looked puzzled. The na-whats? Jacob giggled, 'oh granny, you make me laugh, my family, back in Brixford, you know Nikki, Oli, Sav- 'oh dear how could I forget', she interupts. Both giggle uncontrollably as Jacob gathers his things to set off back to town, it was his birthday, and he planned to have a party with the Navets at the town bar.

Location: The Malibu Bar, Brixford

Jacob was late as usual. Music could be heard from a mile away, for some reason it sounded like 1980s karaoke. Moreover, to make matters worse, he was out of money. 'Well isn't this just fuckin' great', Jacob muttered to himself. This wasn't a suprise however, Jacob had been broke since he began college.

Joyfully, Jacob skipped towards the bar, singing to himself. This would be his big night, he can finally see the Navet's again. Hesitantly, he burst through the doors; shocked to find a room full of elders, singing along to Whitney Houston. Clearly filled with rage, Jacob screamed 'ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? NAH THIS AIN'T HAPPENIN, NOT TONIGHT MATE', making the elders feels uneasy. 'DITCHED BY THE NAVETS, AGAIN, AGAIN, AGAIN!' Jacob paused, scanning around the room, not a Navet in sight. Silence. 'Okay, have it your way'. Jacob proceeded to slam the door shut, and ran home, trying hard to hold back the tears, he felt betrayed, alone and very angry.

Dear Diary,
I am absolutely fucking fuming. It's my birthday, we planned a party, all the Navets were meant to be there, FUCKING NONE OF 'EM CAME. Not in the mood right now, ultimately I feel betrayed and so let down by the people I trust. Maybe granny is right, I need to get my arse outta Brixford like right now! Tears were slowly dripping onto the sheet, smudging the ink. Jacob slammed the book shut, furious by what had occurred and attempted to sleep. However this would prove a struggle for him. Tossing and turning all night, thoughts running through his mind, he felt like he had an anchor pulling him into the depths of hell. Why did this have to happen? The thought raced through his mind, unable to reach it's destination. Although, he knew when he got back to school, he would not be civil with the Navets.
