Chapter 1- The Jackal

Middle school is a death trap. Either you're stupid, ugly, or worthless. 6th grade is the worst. When everyone is fitting in. Trying to mix in with the older kids and be a part of the "cool" group. If it was just a middle school, things would've been easier. This school isn't just a middle school. It's a K-12 school.

Luckily, I have my friends. I'm lucky to have them too. Some of them are friends with almost everyone. Unfortunately for me, I'm the weird kid. I have friends, but some kids consider me weird. My name is Jackson. I'm eleven years old and so are almost al of my friends. My day was going pretty good, until Anubis came along. Me, Griffen, Justin and Jake were being pushed around by the Killers when he ruined my day.

The Killers were a group of Seniors that harassed everybody in the school. After they had punched us all in the face, they took a break. Kevin Smith finished off his water bottle and threw it in the trash can.

"That could be recycled!" yelled Albert James from inside the trash can.

Albert James could have finished school as a Sophomore. In only his second year of high school, he took the SATS and scored a 1620. I know, right. It isn't possible. He said he just took it so he wouldn't have to worry about them later. After his genius became apparent, the Killers, sent him a letter.

"Deer, Alburt.

Beter wach yor bak becus we are after yu!

Signed,

The Kilurs"

That's exactly what it said. Anyway, Jake was mad. His face was already turning red. A killer walked up.

"Hey wimp," he said. "Where's your dress."

They started yukking it up. I, found it inoffensive, but Jake took it personally.

"Hey ugly," he said. "Why don't you scrape that mold off your face?"

The Killers paused. Then, "Ugly" grabbed Jake and was about to throw at us when a voice spoke.

"Don't you dare." said the voice, which was clearly a boy's.

"Who said that?" yelled Ugly.

There was silence before Ugly shrieked and fell to the ground. Jake scurried over next to us. We all watched Ugly, who just lay there, silent. Then, he evaporated. We all gasped. Then, two more shrieked, and fell to the ground. Leaving only the biggest. We couldn't believe our eyes when those two evaporated. Then, the biggest Killer started growling, and then his teeth turned to fangs. Our eyes went wide.

He started to punch everything around him, before grabbing a giant sword out his backpack.

"Here boy!" said the biggest.

There was a laugh, and then the biggest one shrieked, before falling to the ground. He evaporated as soon as he hit the ground. When looked up from his body, we saw Anubis, carrying two glowing swords.
