Of Rage And Love

Jimmy - known to his friends as the Jesus of Suburbia - is sick of life in Jingletown, USA. His step-father is an alcoholic and his mother is a pushover. He spends his days skipping school in the parking lot of the local 7/11 along with his best friend Tunny. A particularly heated argument at home provides the final straw, and along with Tunny and self-destructive young tag-along Christian, Jimmy escapes to the City.

There the boys' friendship is tested as they get introduced to the Underbelly, get on the wrong side of the law and meet a girl called Whatsername.

I don't own the characters of St Jimmy/Jesus of Suburbia, Whatsername, Tunny or anyone else you recognize from one of Green Day's concepts.
All I own is the plot.

    "Jimmy please don't do anything stupid -!"
  8. Everyone's So Full Of Shit
    "Sounds like a plan, Batman."
  9. I'm Looking For Directions For Out Of This Place
    "Reasonable? Do you honestly think that's possible anymore?" He wasn't angry, which was worrying for the other two.
  10. And It's Time You Knew The Truth
    As he made his way into the house and up the stairs, a knot of panic and dread started to form in his stomach.
  11. In The Ditch That You Dug Yourself In
    “Then where is your home?”
  12. Born And Raised By Hypocrites
    "Oh, well it must be easy sittin' there all high and mighty - the king of shit mountain."
