We drove down through the parking lot and reached where the parking lot met the main road. My mom looked both ways and right as she pulled out Devilish ran in front of her. My mom stopped short almost ramming her. She was a complete mess. Her hair was all wild and not straight and her clothes were unbuttoned and pulled. She stopped and slammed her hands down on the hood of our car.
"The demon children are among us!" she screamed. She looked directly at me and yelled,
"That's the demon child there!" she then pointed directly at me.
Then she ran off screaming.
"What in God's name?" my mom said. I just shrugged my shoulders and she just drove away.
"Wasn't that your principal?" my mom asked me.
"Umm….yeah I think so," I said.
"And didn't you have detention with her?" she ask.
"Why yes, I believe so," I answered.
"So why…?" she began to say and stopped. I just sat there smiling. She stopped asking questions and drove.
We pulled into the driveway and stopped in front of the garage. My mom pushed the button above her to operate the garage door opener.
"Oh and I have detention again tomorrow and all of next week," I said. "What!" she yelled.
"But don't worry, Principal Devilish won't be around for a very long time…" I said. She drove into the garage and closed the door. She got out and walked inside with her things. I did the same and walked up the stairs.
I tossed my things and was happy that the afternoon of torture was over. I looked at the clock which read 3:58. I jumped and sprinted to my room. I had my martial arts class in a half hour so I began to get ready. I put the television on as I got my stuff ready. I heard the news come on and I heard something familiar.
"In today's news respected principal of Montebello Elementary, Principal Nora Devilish, went erratic earlier this afternoon…" the newscaster said.
I began to watch intently at what they were saying. The newscaster continued,
"She was in her office with a student, Daniel Bexus, in detention when office secretaries saw her run out. Witnesses claimed to hear her shouting about demon children. And to add more confusion, there was what seemed to be the entire wall in her office missing. Her colleagues said she had no signs of this behavior. Police say this is very perplexing to why a student was in her office with a wall missing and claims to know nothing as well as odd things have been happening at the school as of late and will be interviewing the student last to have contact with the principal…Now let's check the weather with Jim Cioffi.." the newscaster said then I turned it off.
"Cool, I might be on TV," I said rather excited. I finished packing my stuff and left my room.
"I'm going to class mom," I said into the house.
"Alright dear, have fun," she said from her bedroom. I jumped over the stairs and out the front door. I ran across the front lawn and reached the street. I couldn't believe how energized I was. I have never felt this way before. I walked up the street towards the dojo.
I couldn't wait to go train due to all the energy I had. After walking I reached my dojo and walked into the front door. I walked into the bathroom and changed. I stepped out and my sensei or teacher saw me.
"Hello Danny, how are you today," he said then bowing.
"I'm great sensei Malandra," I said returning the bow.
"Good, I'm glad to hear it," he said smiling. I smiled back and walked on to the training floor and started to warm up.
I stared at myself in the mirror while doing my exercises and saw the intensity and focus in my face. My focus felt much stronger since last time I was in class. I felt more flexible as well and it felt kind of weird but at the same time very good. I felt even better after my exercises that I felt like I could accomplish anything. The rest of my class walked in and walked into the training floor. The class didn't like me all that much since I excelled much better than them in class.
I gave a smile but they all gave me sneers. Sensei walked onto the floor and stood in front of us.
"Attention," he said. We all faced him with our arms at our sides.
"Stance," he instructed us. We all got into our fighting stance.
"Punch," he said. We did so and yelled,
"Kia!" after every punch. Every punch I did was perfect which I have never been able to do. Every
"Punch," that was instructed and every "Kia!" that was yelled was followed and proceeded by my perfect punches.
"Attention," we were instructed. We all moved in our attention stances.
"Good, all of you are improving slightly, except for you Danny," Sensei said. I almost fell out of my stance when he said that. I couldn't understand what was wrong, I was nailing every punch perfectly. I could hear the class snickering.
"You have improved tremendously," he said smiling. I was relieved at what he said and relaxed.
I heard the class whisper among themselves and I could almost hear their comments.
"Attention!" Sensei yelled. We all stood at attention "Today we will try something different. The entire class will be free sparing," he said. The class basically cheered but I didn't. Free sparring was the only thing I wasn't really good at and the rest of the class knew that.
"But today it will be different; everyone will be up against Danny one on one. And also Danny will not have his gear on," Sensei mentioned.
"What?" I said then gulping hard.
"But Sensei…" I said ready to plea.
"Don't worry Danny, I have faith in you," he told me. The class went to retrieve their gear and I went over to the sparring area to think of a game plan. I thought I was going to be mince meat by the end of class. The class had all their gear on, feet, hands, and head gear along with their mouth pieces. They all got in a line to face me and all smirked in my direction.
I started to sweat bullets as I looked at them in their line. The first one approached me and I started to back up. He jumped forward and I ducked to the side. He turned to me and ran. I blocked his punch and stuck his abdomen with my palm and knocked him back. I started to feel that power increase as I did earlier. He came at my swinging his arms and one after another which I blocked them and struck him in the chest.
He fell back and became irritated. He ran at me full force trying to grab me. I felt my power increase dramatically and I began to move quicker. Every move he made at me I dodged. I could see he was slowing down and becoming tired. I crouched down and did a leg sweep making him fall to the ground. I struck him in the chest shouting the word "Kia," I got up and help him up and got back into my place.
I wiped the sweat off my face. I faced the line whose faces looked at me in awe. They have never seen me spar like that. I felt good to spar like that and I saw that Sensei was pleased.
"Go," Sensei instructed the next one in line. He came at me fast and jabbed hard with his left arm which I didn't see and made perfect contact and I felt it strike me. I fell back a little and fell to my knee. He came at me fast again and nailed me right in the chin knocking me to my back.
I felt the pain surge through my chin. But I felt the surge of power in my body more. The other class members cheered as I lay on the ground. The pain subsided and I sat up. The power increased and I jumped up to my feet. I cracked my neck to each side and got into fighting stance. I quickly moved out of it and ran at my opponent and struck him hard in the chest knocking him back and fell hard to the ground.
I motioned to the next one in line and Sensei nodded. He ran at me like the other two but I needed not to defend myself. When he reached me I swung my arm and hit him in the neck making him move to the side and fall to the ground.
"Come and get me, you know you want to," I said staring the rest of them down. They all ran at me and converged on me. The weight of them all made me fall to the ground.
They all piled on me and so did my defeated opponents. The entire class was on top of me pushing me closer to the floor. I just was barely able to hold them up. I felt my strength increase dramatically more than it had before and I pushed off all of the class members and I stood as they lay all over the floor. I stood there feeling incredible. I noticed something in the mirror so I turned to it and looked at myself.
I saw my hair was that gold color like when I was in Devilish's office. The class members looked up at me and their mouths dropped open. I looked at all of them individually and smirked. I saw a faint shroud around me. It grew a little more solid and a bright yellow shroud surrounded me. I brought my arms up to my waist and felt the incredible power flowing between them. I dropped my hands down and looked at the class still lying on the floor.
"Class dismissed," I said.
I turned to the exit and walked to my stuff and walked out. I realized that my power remained and didn't subside. I wasn't quite sure how to make it go away so I had to keep it in me. I ducked down the alley on the side of the dojo and changed out of my uniform. I began to walk back home hoping my new appearance wasn't seen by too many people. I had to walk by the small strip mall in order to get home.
I wasn't completely happy at that for the time being but I had no choice. I looked down as I walked and saw the pavement crack as I stepped my foot down. My intense energy kept flowing around me. I reached the edge of the strip mall and saw a bunch of people in the parking lot. I tried to walk as fast as I could through it so no one would see me. No one was paying enough attention to see me walking by.
I noticed a young woman putting groceries in her car and saw an empty baby stroller. I was wondering why this woman had an empty stroller next to her. As I was pondering I looked over to the street and saw a young kid about to wonder into the street. The woman finished her packing and she screamed at the empty stroller. She looked up at the road and screamed louder when she saw her child in the street.
"Zachary!" she yelled at the toddler.
With only a split second of thought I ran after the child. There was a car coming down the street and not slowing down. At the rate of speed it was going it would have struck the toddler and it would be disastrous. I ran as fast as I could reaching the child as the car was about to come across paths with him. I jumped in front of toddler and grabbed the fender of the car as my gut instinct told me to.
The car practically stopped in my hands. I pushed back with everything I had and only barely pushed the car back. Realizing that I could not stop the car at this point, I pushed it to the right to let speed off across the road and into a telephone pole. I grabbed the toddler and ran over to the sidewalk and set him down.
"You okay little guy?" I asked him. He just stared at me as if he had no idea what had just happened.
"Zachary, my baby!" the woman said grabbing her child. She hugged him tight and started to cry. I smiled knowing I help the little boy to live another day. I began to walk home again when the woman called to me.
"Thank you, thank you so much for saving my little boy," she said looking up at me.
"It was no problem ma'am," I said. As her eyes set on my face, she froze.
"My word…" she said looking directly at me.
I realized she was looking at my hair.
"Your hair is gold…" she said as expected.
"And your eyes…" she said.
"My eyes?" I wondered to myself.
"They're green…" she said. I was kind of creepy when she said my eyes were green when they were usually brown. The person in the car that I stopped finally got out and was somewhat bewildered. He saw a bunch of people on the other side of the street and ran across dodging traffic.
"Oh my God, is everyone okay?" he said worried.
"I'm so sorry. I must have passed out again while I was driving. I hope I didn't hurt anyone," the man said.
"No this odd golden haired boy saved this woman's son," one of the bystanders said.
"Golden haired…?" the man said looking over at me. His eyes froze as all the other people around me did. "Umm, I should be going," I said as everyone was still staring at me.
I turned around and ran in the direction of home. As I started running my strength started to decrease and my hair faded back to normal.
"Yes!" I yelled out as I ran home.
I reached the residential areas and stopped running. I slowed down to catch my breath. As I walked the sky was getting darker. I reached my front lawn when I realized I left my gear near that strip mall. I stomped the ground angry at myself.
I was hoping it would still be there tomorrow so I decided to go back after school. I jumped up the front stoop and opened the front door and closed it behind me. "I'm home," I said into the house.
"Great, dinner is ready," my mom said from the upstairs. I went up the steps and entered the kitchen. A plate of steaming spaghetti and sausage was sitting at my spot. I sat down in my seat and grabbed my utensils.
I shoved my fork into the spaghetti and started to eat. I put a lot of the spaghetti in my mouth and chewed. My mom walked in and saw me eat.
"Manners please," she said. I swallowed a big part of the spaghetti.
"Sorry mom," I said taking smaller portions.
"That's better, how was training?" she asked me.
"It was good, quite entertaining if I do say so myself," I said finishing my dinner.
"That's great," she said.
I picked up my plate and put it in the dishwasher. \
"Oh by the way, your school called and said your detention tomorrow is cancelled due to the principal hasn't been seen since she ran out this afternoon," she said.
"Heh, told you," I said walking out of the kitchen. My mom looked at me funny and opened her mouth. "You seem a little different lately, but I can't seem to put my finger on it," she said.
"It's just because of school so don't worry about it," I told her and went to my room. I went back out to retrieve my vocabulary book and went in to my desk and opened the book. I looked at the words and read the definitions of each. I went over and over them until I could not forget what the definitions were. This technique seemed to work well in the past so I keep using it for my test preparations.
I looked at the clock and realized it was getting close to 9:30, so I changed into my sleep attire a got into bed and turned off the light. I lay in my bed staring at the ceiling thinking how weird the whole day was. How Devilish freaked out, the sparring incident, and the traffic accident. That wouldn't happen to me in my wildest dreams. But I decided to put it behind me and let tomorrow be another day.
I woke up with a yawn and a stretch. I turned to my clock and waking eye and fell back to my pillow. It was only 5:25 in the morning. But I was too wide awake at the moment to go back to sleep. I hopped out of bed and went into the bathroom. I went on to do my morning rituals washing, brushing teeth, etc. I walked back to my room and got dressed. I walked out into the kitchen and saw my dad sitting there.
"Danny, you're up early," my dad said.
"Yeah I know, I am too awake to go back to sleep so I decided to stay up," I said to him sitting down at the table.
"Oh okay. Your mother talked to me yesterday," he said.
"About what?" I asked him.
"Your detention," he said.
"Oh that," I said looking for the cereal.
"Is it true that you are falsely accused?" he asked.
"Yes, the desk is old," I said grabbing the cereal.
"And did you explain that?" he asked.
"Well no, but she wouldn't listen to me. She's a psycho," I said pouring the cereal into a bowl.
"Danny, you know not to say things like that," he said.
"But dad she is, you wouldn't believe what she told me yesterday," I said. I took a few spoonfuls of the cereal.
"Tell me later because I have to leave in a few," he said looking at the oven clock.
"Okay see you later," I said.
"See you later son," he said leaving the kitchen. I finished my cereal and went back to my room to wait for it to get closer to school time. I sat on my bed and grabbed my remote and switched on the television. The early morning news was on and they were finishing up the weather forecast.
"Thanks Jim, now onto a shocking new report from Rockland County. A three year old boy was saved yesterday from a car whose driver had passed out," the newscaster said.
"Holy crap, I'm in the news two days in a row!" I said excited.
"That's right John. It seems a miraculous event happened that saved the toddler's life. A young boy, with get this, gold hair and pale green eyes jumped in front of the car and stopped it with his bare hands. Witnesses say he pushed the car to the side and it ran into a telephone pole. He ran off shortly after the incident so no interviews of the young man were taken," The other newscaster said. I never thought at all I would get on the news like this.
I turned off the television knowing today wasn't going to be any different form the yesterday and the day before. I took my mind off and I studied for my vocabulary test until I had to get to the bus stop. I got my stuff ready and walked out and to the bus stop. I got closer to the stop and saw Frankie standing there as always.
"Hey Frankie," I said.
"Hey Danny, did you hear about Devilish?" he said.
"Yeah Frankie, I was there when it happened" I told him.
"Oh yeah," he said. "So what happened?" he asked me.
"Well, she was being evil as always and then she just freaked out and ran out," I said. I didn't want to expose myself too much for now even if Frankie was my best friend.
"Wow she is insane," Frankie said laughing. "
Yeah, it was pretty funny," I said. The bus came around the corner and we got on. All the kids looked at me as I got on. Their eyes followed me to the back of the bus.
"Can I help you guys?" I said sitting down uncomfortably.
They just sat there looking at me. Brain popped up from the seat in front of us.
"Word about you being there when Devilish flipped is spreading like a virus," he told us.
"So everyone knows?" I asked him.
"Yup, everyone," he said. I looked up at everyone that was still staring at me. The silence aboard the bus was getting unsettling.
"What made Devilish flip out Danny?" one girl said.
All the kids aboard the bus nodded and said spontaneous "yeah" 's. "I stood up and looked at them all individually.
"You wanna know?" I asked. They nodded in response.
"Do you really wanna know?" I asked. They nodded again.
"Well come close and I will tell you," I said smirking. They all started to pile in towards me. I knew keeping a low profile was the best idea but what chance would I have again to blow them all away.
"Well I was sitting there while she was doing her evil nonsense when all of a sudden…Boom!" I said as they all flinched. I laughed at them.
"Danny just tell us," Brain said.
"Okay, but I can't tell you…" I told them.
"What? Why not?" Brian said.
"Because I can only show you…" I said. The kids looked at each other. I stood up straight and tried to feel the power in my body and I closed my eyes. The kids began to whisper to each other.
"If you're just gonna stand there then fine, don't show us," Brian said. I ignored his words and felt the power start to move within me. I felt my power increase as I focused on raising it. I was starting to learn how to control it. I focused more and the levels shot up. My hair began to fade in and out of the golden hair. The kids started to gasp as they saw it flicker between colors. I focused as much as I could and my power skyrocketed.
My hair stopped flickering and burst into a golden shine. I opened my eyes to see most of the kids fell back in their seats. They got back up and pointed and gasped more.
"Whoa, your hair is gold," Frankie exclaimed.
"And your eyes are green…" Brain said.
"I know, what you are seeing right now is what made Devilish flip out," I told them. They all stared at me trying to believe the sight before them.
"You should have seen her run out," I said imitating her running. The kids began to laugh and realized what they saw was real. I saw we were starting to approach the school parking lot and I dropped my focus and my power dropped and I went back to my normal self. The bus pulled up to the front of the school to let us off. Everyone gave a little cheer as we walked off. I noticed there were police cars around.
I knew why they were hear and I was sure so did everyone else. I calmly walked to my class passed the main office. I glanced quickly over my shoulder and saw police officers talking to Mrs. Grady. I quickly turned back and began to walk faster to my classroom. I walked up the stairs and slowed down when I was out of the main office vision. I walked down the hall whistling. I knew how well I studied for the test today so I was pretty happy.
I walked into my class and put my stuff away. I sat down at my desk ready to take on the school day. Ms. Krackel got up from her desk and wrote something on the blackboard. When she turned to get to her desk I saw what she wrote.
"Vocab Test Today," the board said.
"Put your books and note cards away, it's time for the test," she said organizing the pile of tests. I took out my pen ready to conquer the test.
Everyone put their items away and sat ready for the test. Ms. Krackel stood in front of the desks and gave the first person in each row a bunch of tests. They in return took one and passed it behind them. The person behind them did the same. I was next and took a test and passed the last one behind me. I picked up my pen and signed my name at the top. I skimmed the paper and noticed two parts of the test.
The first part was a matching column where we had to draw a line from the word to the definition. And the second part was filling in the blanks where there was a sentence and we had to fill in the correct word by viewing the context of the sentence. I moved back to the front page and started to read the first vocabulary word. Then the worst thing that could ever happen, happened. My mind went blank.
I forgot all that I studied and I started to panic. I looked at all the words and definitions across from them and I couldn't match even one. I was completely panicked. As I started sweat hard, two police officers walked in.
"Excuse me is this Ms. Krackel's room?" one of the officers asked.
"Yes," Ms. Krackel answered.
"Do you have a Daniel Bexus in your class?" he asked her.
"Yes I do," She replied.
All the students looked up and over at me.
"Is he here today ma'am?" he asked looking up at the class. He looked at us and saw the rest of the class looking at me.
"Never mind," the officer said walking over to me. He stopped at my desk and looked down at me. "
Daniel Bexus?" he said.
"Yes?" I answered. "We would like to ask you a few questions if that's okay," he said.
"Um…sure," I said looking over to Ms. Krackel.
She nodded and said, "Yes Daniel, you can be excused from today's test," she said. I nearly lost it when she said I didn't have to take the test. I stood up and walked to the door and the officer followed. The students watched us leave the room. They began to converse with each other once I walked out. I heard Ms. Krackel shush them and ordered them to finish their tests. The officers and I walk down the hall and down the stairs where we went to the main office to talk.
They led me passed Mrs. Grady's desk and into the big conference room. We walked in and closed the door behind us. The officers went to the other side and sat down.
"Please, take a seat," the one officer said. I sat down in the closest chair and folded my hands on my lap.
"Well Daniel, do you know why you are here?" the second officer asked.
"Is it because of Principal Devilish?" I responded.
"Yes that's right. You were the last one to see her before she…" the officer said.
"Flipped out and went insane," I said finishing the sentence.
"Well, yes that's one way of putting it," the second officer said.
"So we want to ask you, did you see or know at all what made your principal um…lash out?" the second officer asked.
"Well Officer I…" I said. "Please call me Officer Sandra and this is Officer Derrick" she said and Officer Derrick tips his hat.
"Well Officer Sandra…" I started to say.
There was a large thump at the door. I jumped up and ran to near the officers. The thump slammed the door again. There was then a short commotion outside the door. It was followed by another thump. Silence began to form outside the door. The two officers began to draw their 9 mm's. The door swung open and the officer's readied their guns. After the door swung open, Devilish stood there a complete mess.
"Principal Devilish?" I said looking right at her. The two officers lowered their guns but kept them ready. She looked at me and walked to the edge of the table.
"That there is no ordinary boy, he's a demon child!" she yelled pointing at me. The officers raised the weapons.
"Calm down Ms. Devilish…" Officer Derrick said.
"Calm down? I can't calm down when there's demon seed in my school," she said.
I was very appalled at what she called me. I wanted to show her a thing or two.
"What do you mean?" Officer Sandra asked Devilish.
"That boy there can change his appearance," she said. "
What?" Officer Derrick said.
"He can make his hair turn gold," she said.
"Gold?" asked Officer Sandra.
"Yes, gold and strange things happen when he's around. Ever since the weird things have been happening here I always see him…" she said.
"And you claim his hair can turn gold?" Officer Derrick asked her.
"Yes," she responded. Both officers looked over at me. I shrugged my shoulders. They turn back to her and point their guns directly at her.
"Miss Devilish, I think it's time to visit a friend of ours," Officer Sandra said.
"Oh?" Devilish said.
"Yes, Dr. Vanpra is a great Psychologist," Officer Sandra said.
"No, I am not…" she said and Officer Derrick pointed his gun at Devilish's neck and fired.
Devilish fell straight to the floor.
"Oh my God! You killed Principal Devilish!" Mrs. Grady yelled.
"Relax, I only tranqed her. Okay bring it in," Officer Derrick said over his radio. I looked at her unconscious on the ground. I wanted so bad to kick her, but I held back. Just then two guys in white uniforms walked in with a stretcher. They lifted Devilish onto the stretcher and wheeled her out into an ambulance.
"Miss Devilish is going to take a long vacation for a while," Officer Derrick said reloading his tranquilizer gun. He put it into his holster and walked over to me. He put his hands on my shoulders.
"Don't worry son, she will get some help and also don't pay too much to what she said, she's obviously under some real stress and has become a little unstable," he said to me. I nodded to his words.
"Go back to your class Daniel, and try to forget what happened," Officer Sandra told me. I nodded and walked out of the office. I looked out the main doors and saw the ambulance drive off. I laughed to myself and vowing never to forget this day. I began to walk back to my class when the lunch bell rang. I shrugged my shoulders and continued to class to retrieve my lunch. I reached the stairs and started to climb.
After only one step I heard something behind me.
"Hey Bexus," I heard and turned around. Beanerd stood there fists clenched. My marker graffiti was still on his face which made me burst out laughing.
"Shut up Bexus, this is your fault," he said.
"Oh really Beanerd? What was your first clue, my name in magic marker on your face?" I said. His face became bright red. I know was his intention was…he wanted to beat my face in.
"My mom tried to get this off with soap and water but it didn't work. Then she used steel wool, and that really hurt," he said letting a small tear roll down his face. I began to fall so hard my face turned red.
"ARGGH!" he yelled loud into the halls. I stopped laughing and got upright to defend myself.
"Beanerd, I don't think we should do this," I said.
"Shut up, I'm gonna bury you so deep it's gonna take weeks to find you," he said.
"Beanerd, seriously, don't do this," I said calmly.
"I've been waiting for this for a long time Bexus," he said than cracking his knuckles.
"I don't want to hurt you Beanerd," I said stepping off the stairs.
"You hurt me? That's a laugh. There is no way you could hurt me," he said.
"Oh trust me, now let's just walk away and be civilized," I said.
"I don't think so…" he said beginning to charge at me. He ran fast with full force and I only had one option.
I gathered my power and rose all at once. As Beanerd was about to slam into me, my power exploded slamming him back across the main lobby of the school. I began to hear voices behind me coming down the stairs. A big group of students came down the stairs and saw Beanerd and me in the lobby. They saw Beanerd on the ground and me at the edge of the stairs. The secretaries came out to see what was going on.
The gym teachers came out of the gymnasium's doors also to see what was going on. I stood there veins pulsing and blood pumping extra fast. Beanerd stood up with a real sense of anger. He looked my directly in the eye and I knew he wouldn't stop until I was taken out. The gym teacher's looked at us and realized what was going on.
"Okay break it up you two," the head gym teacher, Mr. Waples said getting between us.
I was glad Mr. Waples stepped in. I didn't want to hurt Bearnard. I looked over at Beanerd and I could see that no adult was going to stop him. I was hoping Mr. Waples had him pinned back. Right as Beanerd began to walk away, he bolted towards me. He came at me so fast I had no time to react. He slammed into me and we fell to the floor and slid across it. I heard a large clang as soon as we stopped sliding. I felt a slight pain on my head as Beanerd got off me.
"That will teach you," he said laughing down at me. I shook my head and stood up. Everyone around us gasped. I rubbed my head and looked around.
"No way…" Beanerd said. I wasn't quite sure why everyone was in awe. I turned around saw a big metal folded table under the stairs. I looked down at where we stopped sliding and saw a huge dent in the metal table. I then realized that was the loud clang, my head must have hit it.
Everyone was surprised I had gotten up especially Beanerd. He had thought that I was out for a long time. He quickly snapped out of his awe trance and threw a fast punch. I raised my power faster than he could blink and a bright flash came from me and lit up the entire lobby blinding everyone. When the flash cleared everyone's mouths had dropped. There stood Beanerd with his fist up and me with my hand firmly over his fist.
His strength dropped as he stared into my pale green eyes. His eyes moved up to my golden hair. He pulled his fist away and stood back. I could feel all the eyes around me were looking directly at me.
"Beanerd, please stop this," I said to him. He looked down at my eyes again.
"Never, you are going to pay for this," he said. I started to think trying to talk to him wasn't going to work. The only way to stop him is to immobilize him.
He charged at me as he did before but I decided to have a little fun with this. I stood there casually letting him think I was just going to stand there. At the last possible second and dodged him with the completely enhanced speed. I ended up on the other side of his as he smashed into the metal table. I winced thinking how painful that could have been. He got up and turned to face me. A single line a blood slid down his forehead.
It didn't seem to affect him that his forehead was cut open. He wiped off the blood and charged at me again. I didn't want to dodge it but I had to. I move fast to the side as he ran straight into the steel enforced main doors. He hit them hard and fell back. He hit the floor with his hands on his head. I lay on the ground holding his head. After some time he got up and was more furious than ever. I hoped he learned his lesson and was not going to charge anymore.
He ran at me at no surprise and stopped short. He found my reaction as I moved to the side. He saw me moved and quickly punched me in the stomach. I felt his force slide through his arm into my stomach. For a few seconds I couldn't move as the pain echoed. I stumbled back some trying to regain my composure. I fell to my right knee holding my stomach. I couldn't believe he caught me completely off guard like that.
I didn't know how a smart move that was and how he was able to contemplate it. I was hoping he wouldn't have any more good tactics. The pain in my stomach subsided and I stood up. I wanted to attack him as hard as I could, but I wasn't sure if I should really hurt him. I noticed that Mr. Waples was trying to get my attention. I looked over and saw him nod. I realized he was telling me to defend myself.
He was right, if I didn't Beanerd was going to take me out. I had to do what I had to do in order to protect myself. Beanerd smirked as he cracked his knuckles. He walked up to me suspecting I still hurt from his first punch and threw another. I grabbed his hand and stopped it as I did before. I took him by the arm and flipped him over my shoulder. He landed on a small wooden table where visitors to the school would sign in.
It shattered underneath him. He got up and shook his head. I ran to him as he got up. He attempted another punch but I stopped him and threw him through the school store's thin wooden door. He fell on a stockpile of post its. He got up and ran at me. I had to finish this or someone was bound to get hurt. I kicked him in the leg which made him stop. I grabbed him by the arm and swung him around.
I started to get dizzy so I let him go and he flew through the thin plate glass window of the main office. He landed on the sofa so I knew he wasn't completely hurt. I fell to my knees feeling nauseous. I was starting to fade out of consciousness. I tried to stand up by I was too weak. I could hold on and faded completely out of consciousness and fell to the floor passed out. I woke up in the nurse's office in the back room where the sick kids lay down.
I got up and walked into the main office area and looked around. I didn't see the nurse so I snuck out. When I reached the hallway there was no one around. I looked at the clock on the wall and saw it was 5:34. I must have been out for the rest of the day. I looked around and nothing moved. I ran in to the main office and saw no one. Not even Mrs. Grady was there at her desk. I began to freak out. I ran back out to the lobby.
I ran outside and looked around. Not one person was outside. I became much more freaked out. I heard loud thumps behind me. I turn around to see the school collapse in. I heard an evil laugh. Out from the rubble came Devilish. She stood there laughing evil. She started to grow and tower over me. She pointed down with her large finger.
"I'm going to blame you for this!" she yelled.
"No! You can't!" I yelled. She just laughed and started to come towards me.
She lifted up her large foot and raised it over me.
"No!" I yelled trying to get away. Her foot came down on me. "No!" I yelled spring up from the bed. The nurse came running in.
"Are you okay?" she asked. I looked around and realized I was having a bad dream. I saw other students in the beds and saw the nurse standing next to me.
"Is everything alright?" she asked me.
"Um…yeah I just had a bad dream," I said.
