Hey people! This is just a quick one shot! Enjoy!
"Soooo, you're doing a science experiment to test the temper levels in someone?" Mrs. Wilner looked over Brad's research papers.
"Yes. I'm going to count how many times you can poke a certain person before they punch you." Brad nodded.
"Isn't that sort of… dangerous?"
"Not if I duck in time, I figure it will take around 20 pokes."
"So that's your hypothesis?" Mrs. Wilner asked.
"Yup."
"Ok…" Mrs. Wilner looked around the room, and fingered her chin a little. "Well I'm going to admit that this is a very unique science fair experiment, and I will allow you to do it."
"Yes!" Brad pumped his fist. Finally an interesting experiment.
"But only because it's so unique… Good luck."
"Thanks so much!" Brad stood up, and turned to walk out of the door.
"Oh, and be careful." Mrs. Wilner pinched her nose.
"I will!" Brad assured her, and couldn't wait to get the experiment started

"Ok, Julia Huevo 104 pokes. Jacob Sanchez, 26 pokes. Stephanie Johnson, 153 pokes…" Brad looked over his tally sheets and reviewed some of his results. He had done the experiment to 30 different people, chosen randomly in the hallway. And he was also very proud of himself for not getting hit in the face once.
"Need more data" He thought. "I think it's time to take this to the streets." He muttered to himself.

"Do that guy! The one with the long dark hair! Emos aren't violent!" Brad had brought his friend John along with him. He had also drawn the conclusion that people on the streets were more likely to punch.
He crept up on the tall emo dude, who was talking to some dirty blonde chick. John sniggered behind him, and urged him forward
"Why Max?" The emo dude whispered to the brunette.
"Because Fang, there's a bunch of freaking people here." The Max chick hissed to Fang.
Brad stifled back his laughter, made sure John was watching, and poked the emo dude.
"WHAT THE HELL!?!?" The emo dude named Fang spun around so quickly that Brad didn't even see it happen. He gave a quick punch to his eye, and picked Brad up with a shocking amount of strength, and threw him on the ground.
Brad screamed, and John ran away like a coward.
"Sorry! Sorry!" Brad pleaded Fang, still on the ground. Fang looked even taller and tougher then he originally thought.
"What the hell was that?!" Max demanded from Brad.
"Damn, it's just a human. Calm down." Fang nudged Max's toe.
"Calm down? You're the one that threw him into the air."
"Reflex." Fang said coolly.
"Don't hurt me!" Brad wheezed, because the air had been knocked out of him. He touched his swollen eye.
"Relax." Fang said to Brad. He turned to Max, "People are staring, let's go." They turned and quickly ran away.
Brad looked around, and saw that people were giving him a wide birth and staring. He quickly picked himself up, and brushed himself off. "Fang… 1 poke." He muttered, and went to go find the traitor John.

Brad was in front of three judges who were checking his experiment.
Brad's variables were very far apart. The lowest one, after Fang had been 26. And someone allowed him to poke her for 389 times before she ran away, throwing a rock at him.
Brad glared out into the crowd, where John was standing with his arms folded.
"Also, I concluded that emos, in fact, are very violent."
Hope you all enjoyed! Please review!
