Chapter 30
Time passed and Jack spent the rest of the night in his room having grabbed a Nintendo DS and playing games.
He had found out that he could use his observation skill even on items and things inside the video game so he had been using that to try and gain any experience and hoping that his skill would level up.
Finally, after the night was almost over he was about to get ready to go to school once more.
Jack heard the notification sound that he had been anticipating.

[ Vampire Observation has gone up one level due to continuous use ]
[ VideoGamer has gone up one level due to continuous use ]
'Interesting, they both went up at the same time and with the method I used I can't really guess if the videogamer really is connected to my system as well or just general videogames, I used this for a quick way to level up but it's better that next time I just focus on real-life objects to see if I can upgrade my video gamer skill that way as well' Jack thought as he got up from his bed, threw the nintendo ds that he had borrowed from Emmet aside and started getting dressed into a new pair of clothes.
He had been given some clothes by Alice who apparently was a fashion addict and he had also gotten the stuff that he had left back at his apartment from Emmet who had gone and fetched them last week.
Putting on a new pair of boots and some jeans and a black turtleneck, Jack walked outside of his room and headed downstairs where together with Emmet and Rosalie he got into the Jeep and started heading to school.
At this point, strangely enough, considering how much Rosalie had wanted him to be dead, Jack felt it easier to spend time with her rather than the rest of the Cullens.
Rosalie didn't seem like someone who would lie or change her words and she had proved that, she stuck by her own ideology and followed it to the end, and while Jack didn't like her, he felt that was something respectable.
As for Emmet? Emmet really hadn't done anything, he hadn't said anything against him when he had been forced to be turned but he also hadn't stopped it.
So Jack didn't feel much negativity, and that was also affected by the fact that Emmet had been the most welcoming, the pillar of his support as he got used to this new life of his.
'Am I developing Stockholm syndrome? I'm actually thinking that Emmet who could be considered one of my kidnappers is actually a good friend' Jack thought to himself as his lips twitched at his own thoughts.
The Jeep engine turned on with a rumble and soon it the car started driving off toward Forks High School.
The silver Volvo was right behind them as well with Edward behind its wheel and Alice and Jasper in the back seats.
The drive wasn't long and soon enough they arrived at the high school where they parked the cars in the parking lot and got out.
The Cullens had a habit of staying at their cars for a while to pass the time together until the classes started and now Jack had become part of that group though involuntarily.
'What are we even doing here? They're not even talking but just looking around in silence? What is this?' Jack felt confused as he looked at the vampires.
'Have you seen a movie where teenagers do this and you're trying to emulate it but actually don't know what to talk about?' Jack thought as he tried to come up with any ideas as to why they had this habit of theirs.
Finally, after a minute or two, a loud noise was heard in the parking lot.
If Jack had to give a name to it then it would be an old broken down harsh and jarring rumble.
He didn't know any other ways of describing the rumbling sound that came out of Bella Swan's orange truck exhaust.
'At least she has a car, I don't even have one' Jack thought as he felt a pang of envy hit him as he thought of all the places he could drive to with a car.
'I mean I can just run anywhere I want as a vampire now but that's not fun at all.' Jack thought before he saw the truck park itself on the other side of the lot and Bella Swan came out and slammed the poor truck's door.
It was also at this moment that another notification sound went off in his head.

[ Quest has been generated ]
'Another Quest? As soon as I see Bella Swan too? Is she the main character or something?' Jack thought to himself jokingly before he read the blue panel that had appeared before his vision.
[ Find out whether Bella Swan knows the Secret ]
[ Rewards: 1 Perk Ticket, 1 Skill Level Up Ticket ]
[Failure Penalty: None ]
'She really is like a golden goose that lays quests and rewards constantly isn't she?' Jack thought before a small smile grew on his face.
'Not that I'm complaining.'
Seeing the young girl head into the school, Jack turned to the others and raised his hand before giving them a slow wave.
"I'll be going now, I want to be in class already," Jack said before turning around and starting to walk toward the school's front gates.
"All right, see you later Jack" Emmet answered from behind him.
Alice also gave him a goodbye however Jack wasn't really bothered with her.
Jack didn't know how to feel about her. Was she just there? Almost as if she was an observer of some sort.
Once inside the school, Jack quickly looked around and saw Bella in the distance.
'Better get this over with quickly' Jack thought before he walked up to her with a fast pace.
He didn't want Edward to notice them otherwise he would be in a bit of a pickle is what Jack would say.
