Chapter 1

"Connor! Get your ass down here!" Hank shouted loudly. There was some thumping on the stairs as he came down.

"What?" connor stated happily. his eyes shone bright with enthusiasm.

"whats gotten you into giggles? anyways. you have school in five minutes, hurry up.

Connor's stance almost immediately became deflated. "do i have to go? Hank, do i?"

"Yes, now get a move on, or you'll be late to school."

Connor sighed and ran upstairs to grab his neatly packed bag. He peered inside it, looking to see if everything was there. he had packed everything the night before, and yet he checked on his bag every hour or so to see if everything was still there.

"Hank? I'm ready!" he shouted as he thumped down the stairs. Connor grabbed his lunch. 'mmm.. leftover pizza!' he thought sarcastically.

"Hank?" Connor sighed and looked around. he found Hank sleeping on the couch. He went to shake him but pulled his hand back. 'ill just walk'

"Bye Sumo!" he whispered and went out the door. Connor knew Hank had specifically said to not walk to school... but he didn't come home till late after one in the morning, so connor found it in his best interest to let Hank sleep.

5 mintutes later

"Hey pipsqueak." a gruff voice shouted.

Connor cringed as he turned. 'Joshua Yornkins'

"H-hey, there... I guess."

Joshua came closer, connor could smell his horrible smelling breath. Joshua pushed him to the ground, his bag skidded across the pavement. Connor crawled over towards it, only to be holstered upwards towards the sky.

"L-let go of me... please. I have to get to school."

"Shut up ya' little prick," Joshua spat in his face and connor flinched.
