## Background

Jack has been best friends with Matthew, Alex, and Tysan ever since. He met Matthew at high school on his first day. He was seen with Tysan in science class, they were working on a lab experiment and they were having problems, so Matthew decided to help them. He was able to fix the machine that they were working on. Jack and Tysan were both thankful for Matthew's help, then Tysan asked him to sit with them. They got to know each other and they became close friends.

After threatened by Butch, Jack and Tysan decided to help Matthew with the fight since he's a Kung-Fu master. He and Tysan helped Matthew prepare for the fight. Matthew was ready to fight Butch and Jack told Matthew to kick his butt out there because he had enough of him. After the fight was over, Jack cheered for Matthew and he was impressed that Matthew was able to outsmart Butch by moving the fight on the outskirts of town so the police would see the fight and stop Butch before it got worse. For saving the school from any of Butch's fights, Jack and Tysan became best friends with Matthew.

Jack promised to be there by Matthew and his friends' side at all times. He'll protect them no matter what.

### Personality

Jack is very mannerly but a tough young man since he has a strong and eternal fighting spirit. He loves extreme martial arts and sports. He also has a little bit of daredevil in his heart and loves to take risks especially the dangerous kinds (mainly on journeys). Jack does a soft and kind heart towards his friends. He acts brotherly towards Matthew, Alex and Tysan since he's been best friends with them for years.

Jack was shown to be arrogant, coarse, rotten, selfish and egotistical because, in the movie Video Game Life, he wanted to build a video game that would be popular thus making him popular and highly respected in the entire school. But after being sucked in Racing Transformed, he wanted to leave ASAP, so he praised for all the work, he did when Matthew, Alex and Tysan helped him. He would even take all of the credit. After being captured by Electro, Jack blamed Matthew for everything but Matthew stood up to Jack and told him that he started to talk like Electro since he cared so much about his popularity than his friends.

After Matthew stood up to Jack, he then started to regret everything he just said. It was later revealed that Jack was treated badly in middle school and it was hard for him to fit in and he wanted to become popular, so he can feel loved and appreciated by other students but he then realized that he doesn't need other people's love when he already has friends and family who loves him. During and after the final battle, Jack had a change of heart and he decided to remain his kind and brotherly self.
