Description: In the days past, a young Peter must help a young Chris and Johnson outsmart a bully and his thugs.

One day after school, Stan was walking home with Kyle.

"You know, I just thought of something."

"What's that?" Kyle asked.

"I never got to know how Johnson, Peter, and Chris met each other. Peter told us in an interview with him that he saved Newton's life, but we never got to know how he and Johnson and Chris met each other."

"You wanna go ask?" Kyle said.


"Oh, you wanted to ask how we met each other?" Chris said at Peter's house.

"Yeah," Stan said.

"Well, Peter isn't here right now, but I can tell you what happened."

"So, what happened?"

"It all started like this..."


10 YEARS AGO...

Kyle Johnson had just moved next door. He and Chris Tucker instantly became friends. But that didn't stop them from dreading school. Not because of the crappy teachers, and disgusting food, but much worse. Kipper Habley. Kipper Habley is the biggest and meanest kid in school. He is always followed by his three goons, Thug, Louie, and Buzz. Every day, they would pick on kids and make them hand over their lunch money. Most students hand over the money without question. It was a lot safer (and less painful) to just do what he says. And if Kipper got into a jam, he would just call his principal.

"Uncle Jeremy!" He would cry. "That kindergartner hit my fist with her stomach!"

"Oh really? How dare you hurt my nephew with your stomach!" The principal yelled at the kindergartner.

It was best for Johnson and Chris to hide from the bullies on the way to school. Once they passed the gas station, they hid behind a sign. But someone wasn't happy.

"HEY! YOU GET AWAY FROM THAT SIGN! IT'S NOT A TOY FOR YOU TO PLAY WITH!" The gas owner, Billy Bill yelled.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Chris said as he and Johnson were yanked away.

The noise attracted Kipper and his goons.

"What seems to be the problem, sir?" Kipper said.

"This boy had messed with my sign!" Billy barked.

The bullies checked and found the two's lunch money.

"Gimme that!" Kipper said as he and Thug dragged Chris and Johnson away.

"You gotta stick up for yourself! Or people are gonna bully you yer whole life!" Billy yelled.

Unbeknownst to the bullies, Billy, or Chris and Johnson, they were being viewed from behind the bushes from another kid.


Peter and his parents moved just a few blocks across from Johnson and Chris's house.

"I sure hope moving here is great because your father got a new job." Peter's mom said.

Peter dressed and ate his breakfast.

"You're going to go on your own? Can I not drive you?" Peter's dad said.

"Nope, I'm good," Peter said.

Peter left the house for school. As he passed by the diner, he saw a gas station up ahead in an uproar. He hid behind the bushes to get a better look.

"You gotta stick up for yourself! Or people are gonna bully you yer whole life!" The gas owner yelled.

Peter was furious. It's not like you can stick up for yourself if you are a kid. Sadly, adults and older kids have the power, so you can't do anything about it. That's why it's important to be smart. And Peter was smarter than all of them put together. He stared at the sign while Billy laughed.

FREE BRAKE INSPECTION.

Peter removed the letters K and E from the word brake. Of course, Billy noticed this.

"HEY!" screamed Billy Bill. "Ye git away from that sign! What is wrong with you kids these days?"

Billy Bill reached for Peter, but he never got the chance. At the same time, a car drove up to the curve. Two women jumped out of the car, furious.

"FREE BRA INSPECTION?! THAT IS OFFENSIVE!" One woman yelled while kicking Billy in the crotch.

"WOMEN ARE HUMAN BEINGS! NOT TOYS FOR YOU TO PLAY WITH!" Another woman yelled hitting Billy with her purse.

"YOU MALE SEXIST PIG!" Another woman came from across the street with her friends.

Peter ignored Billy's cries for mercy.

"You gotta stick up for yourself!" He called out. "Or people going to bully you your whole life!"


Peter found the bullies laughing and cheering while they were giving wedgies to Chris and Johnson.

"Leave them alone!" He shouted.

The bullies turned to see a kid standing before them.

"And if we say no?" Kipper said.

"Get him!" shouted Thug as the bullies charged for him.

Peter picked up a nearby trash can lid and threw it at Louie, knocking one of his teeth out. Buzz grabbed Peter from behind, but Peter bit down on his hand.

"Ow, crap!" Buzz yelled.

Peter kicked Kipper in the knee. Hard. Kipper yelped in pain. Thug reached for Peter, but Peter ducked under his legs and undid his belt. Thug's pants slid off revealing his underwear.

"What the? Smiley faces?!" Kipper said.

Chris and Johnson were laughing like hyenas.

"Let's get out of here!" Thug said as the bullies ran off.

Chris and Johnson stopped laughing and looked at Peter.

"Dude, that was awesome!" Chris said. "What's your name?"

"Peter."

Soon the three became fast friends. After school, the three walked home. They passed by the gas station, which had closed down indefinitely. Peter learned about Kipper from Chris and Johnson.

"I have a plan to stop him," Peter said.


Throughout the week, the three spied on Kipper and his goons. They learned even more about him than him just being a bully. Kipper was the captain of the school wrestling team, hence why he was able to hit hard. He would always go to his locker before and after wrestling practice to put his backpack and duffle bag in the locker. The duffle bag contained all the cash that Kipper stole. He would put the cash there to prevent it from being stolen. His lock, which was always placed on top of the locker, was only unlocked by a key to which Kipper wore around his neck. He would never take the key off, not even in the shower!

"We'll never get that key away from Kipper," Chris said as the three were at the hardware store.

"We don't need the key, we just need this," Peter said as he took a heavy-duty padlock. "This is the same brand and looks like the same lock that Kipper uses."

"But it won't have the key. Each one uses a different key!" Johnson said.

"You'll see when we use this," Peter said.


After getting the lock, the boys made their way to the toy store down the street. Peter picked up a friendship bracelet pack.

"What is THAT for?!" Chris said.

"You'll see..." Peter said.


The next thing that the boys did was to take a long roll of parchment paper. Next, they got some old shoes from a clothing drive as well as some long green pants and a pair of stilts.

"How are we gonna hide these?" Johnson said.

"You'll see..." Chris said, with a few plans of his own.


MONDAY...

The next day, everything was set up. The boys arrived an hour early. Chris got on the stilts and walked with Johnson out in the hallway. They set up the parchment paper and placed their lock two lockers away from Kipper's. Meanwhile, Peter hid the supplies behind a bathroom stall and locked it. The hardest part was to make sure no one sees their stash. But thanks to the green pants and shoes they nailed on the stilts, it discouraged you to look under the stall the three were occupying.

The day started like any normal day, Kipper and his goons raiding from the school kids. After school, the three waited until nearly everyone was gone. Kipper was in the hallway getting ready for practice. Peter was pulling on the parchment paper while Chris provided cover. Now, their lock was just above Kipper's locker. Kipper locked the locker with the boy's padlock.

"Let's boogie!" Kipper said to his friends as the four walked to the gym.

"They're gone," Peter said.

The three walked over to Kipper's locker, unlocked their lock, and filled it with the friendship bracelet pack. Chris and Johnson emptied all of the stolen money on the floor.

"Whoa! There must be a thousand dollars there!" Chris gasped.

"Shh! Get the money!" Peter said.

Chris and Johnson took the money and filled it in their backpacks. Peter took Kipper's phone and sent texts to Kipper's goons. The three then reset everything back to the way it was. Putting their lock back on the top of the lockers, using Kipper's lock on Kipper's locker, and resetting the parchment paper. Peter then went over to the gym and placed a note along with three friendship bracelets.

"I wish we can stay here and watch the fireworks," Chris said.

"I think it's better if we're not here. Things are about to get ugly!" Johnson said.


After wrestling practice was over, Kipper found the note and the bracelets in his shoes.

DEAR KIPPER,

WE MADE THESE FRIENDSHIP BRACELETS FOR YOU BECAUSE WE LIKE YOU...

Kipper couldn't wait to show his friends...


...who were out in the hallway staring at their phones in shock.

Let's make Friendship Bracelets! I have my supplies for you in my locker after class! Whoever makes the prettiest one gets a BIG kiss from me!

Kipper walked by with the friendship bracelets in his wrist.

"What? They're just friendship bracelets."

"Dude, we don't want to make friendship bracelets with you..." Thug said.

"What are you talking about?" Kipper said as he opened his locker.

Kipper found his locker with the friendship bracelet pack in his locker. He took it outside and threw it across the hall.

"What the? Somebody's been through my locker!" He said.

Kipper opened his duffel bag to find it empty.

"AUGH! SOMEBODY STOLE ALL MY MONEY!"

Kipper paced up and down the hall, seething in anger.

"When I find the guy behind this, I'll... I'll..."

"Kiss them?" Buzz said while the other two goons laughed.

Kipper grabbed Buzz by his shirt collar and shook him like a rag doll.

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!"

"THIS!" Buzz said showing Kipper the text.

"I did not write that! And these friendship bracelets are not mine! They were made by the cheerleaders!"

As if on cue, the cheerleaders were walking out from practice.

"I'll show you, look!" Kipper said before making his way to the cheerleaders.

"You guys made these for me, right?" He said.

"No.," said the cheerleader captain as the squad walked away.

Kipper was panting heavily now.

"We'll see you... princess," Louie said.

The three thugs walked away laughing. Kipper went to his locker and found a note inside. He opened it furiously.

I'M COMING FOR YOU!

SIGNED, WEDGIE MAGEE


The three boys were at a thrift store buying dresses for tomorrow.

"I seriously don't know why we need those dresses," Chris said.

"You'll see..." Peter said.

The three were at Peter's room counting all of the stolen money.

"3,954 dollars! How can this guy steal so much money?" Peter gasped.

"He's been doing this for two years," Chris said. "I'm glad you came along."

"Aw, thanks," Peter said.

"But what should we do with the money?" Johnson said.

"Buy lunches for the second graders!" Peter said. "That's what the money was being used for."

Peter went to the phone and called the cheapest, but the best pizza place he could think of.

"Hello, Pizza Palace? I like to take an order please for tomorrow. We'll take five large cheese pizzas, five large pepperonis, along with Pepsi and Sprite." Peter ordered as well as giving them directions.

"We're good!" Peter said as he put down the phone.


TUESDAY...

The next day, the boys made their way to the Pizza Palace. Peter put an envelope filled with money and instructions on what to do. Deliver the pizzas five minutes before lunch happens. After that, the boys made their way to the school to find a frenzied Kipper demanding answers.

"WHO IS WEDGIE MAGEE?" He said.


While everyone is busy asking the same question, the boys were spreading the rumor about Wedgie Magee.

"Did you hear about Wedgie Magee?" Peter said.

"Yeah!" Johnson said even louder. "I heard he is a GHOST!"

There was a group of girls standing by and listening to the boys.

"A GHOST?!" Chris said. "I heard that too! I heard he's going down the hallways bent on revenge!"

"Revenge against who?" Peter said.

"Against Kipper Habley! I heard Wedgie Magee is after him for being mean to the kids at school!" Chris said.

"Oh no! Poor Kipper!" Johnson said.

The three boys walked away, shaking their heads in pity. The girls standing next to them sent texts to their friends.


It didn't take long for the news of the ghost to arrive at the bullies.

"That's a bunch of crap!" Kipper said. "I don't believe in ghosts!"

"But I heard Wedgie Magee can go through doors and even lockers!" Thug said. "Maybe he stole all that money yesterday!"

"What's he going to do with all that money?!" Kipper said.

"Maybe he'll give it back to the second graders. I heard he was a friend to them!" Louie said.

"Um, excuse me," said a guy carrying 10 pizza boxes. "Do you know where the cafeteria is?"

"Down the hall," Kipper said. "Hey, who ordered these pizzas?"

"I never saw him. His name's Wedgie something."

Kipper gasped. "You never saw him?"

"Nope. But he's a pretty good person!" the pizza delivery guy said.


Lunch was great. The kids all loved their pizza and soda pop. Nobody seemed to mind it was all paid for by a ghost.

"Haunted pizza tastes the best!" A second-grader said.


After school, it was just like yesterday. Kipper put his lock on top of the locker, the boys switched Kipper's lock with their own, but this time, Kipper made sure it was locked. It was.

The boys made their move after Kipper left. They unlocked their lock, and placed the dresses in the locker, while Peter was sending another text to Kipper's goons.

"I seriously don't know how you were able to break into Kipper's phone," Johnson said.

"My dad taught me how to break into someone's phone even if it had security or not," Peter said.

"You sure have a weird dad," Chris said, making sure the dresses were alright.


After wrestling practice ended, Kipper's goons found another text from Kipper.

Let's play dress up! I have pretty dressed fo try on after practice.

Kipper noticed the smug look on his goons.

"What?!" He said.

"We don't want to play dress-up with you, man," Louie said.

"Yeah, princess." Buzz chuckled.

"I did not write this!" Kipper yelled. "And I don't have dresses in my locker!"

Kipper opened his locker to find three of the prettiest dresses there. His goons burst in laughter.

"Somebody is messing with me," said Kipper.

"Or maybe you are getting a little soft," Louie said as the goons howled in laughter.

"Yeah, laugh up, chumps!" Kipper said as he found another note on the top. He read it out loud.

THERE IS NO ESCAPE!

Signed, Wedgie Magee

Dude, I think you got cursed!" Louie said.

"At least it's a funny curse," Buzz said.


WEDNESDAY...

Another day, another awesome lunch for the second graders. The boys ordered chicken wings and breadsticks to go along with their meal, and they could not be happier. They even shared their meal with the other students, and things were going smoothly.

At the end of the day, Kipper's goons ran as fast as they could to their lockers to find what bizarre thing Kipper was going to do next. They were not disappointed.

U R invited to my pretty dolly tea party. If u need to borrow a dolly, i have one in my locker! I've got extras!

Kipper was already mad.

"Dude, can I bring a teddy bear to your tea party, or is it just dollies only?" Louie said.

"I DID NOT WRITE THIS!" Kipper screamed. "And I don't have dolls in my locker either!"

Kipper opened his locker to find a bunch of dolls rolling onto his feet. Nothing happened for twenty seconds. Then...

"I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!" Kipper screamed as he threw the dolls around the hallway.

Kipper's friends started running.

Kipper's tantrum lasted for 15 minutes. He laid there on the pile on cotton and shredded dolls. Then he thought of something. He grabbed his padlock on top of his locker and carefully examined it.

"Ah-ha!" He exclaimed.


THURSDAY...

Every kid was forced to hand over their lunch money to Kipper.

"Alright kids, tomorrow your taxes are going up! You better give me four dollars tomorrow, or it's wedgie time!"

Thug, Louie, and Buzz all walked up nervously to Kipper.

"But aren't you scared of the ghost?" Buzz said.

"There is no ghost, you moron!" Kipper said. "I've figured this out! Someone is picking at my lock!"

"Who would do that?" Thug said.

"The same one who's been putting stuff in there! But it changes now!"

Kipper had a new lock.

"Totally pick-proof." He said.


The boys heard about the new lock while Kipper switched out his old lock for a new one.

"Let's see someone mess with me now!" He said as he threw the key to the old lock in the trash.

Lunchtime was also different. Kipper made the pizza delivery guy believe the kids were on diets. The kids all watched in sadness as the bullies devoured the pizzas and finished off their soda pop.

"Well, I guess the jig is up!" Chris said in the bathroom.

"I'm not saying it's over!" Peter said. "I have a backup plan."

After school, the boys got 8 cans of shaving cream and sprayed them into the lockers of Kipper and his goons. Then they spread another rumor of Wedgie Magee leaving behind ectoplasm. And guess who got it?

"Ectoplasm?" Louie said. "That's ghost juice!"

"I'm out of here!" Buzz screamed.

The bullies except for Kipper ran off. Kipper then smelled the "ectoplasm".

"Shaving cream!" He said. "Someone must've sprayed it in the vents."


The boys were ready for the ultimate finisher. First, they wrote a story on a sheet of paper and photocopied it four times. Next, they ordered some pizzas.

"Pizzas? But Kipper is going to steal them again!" Chris said.

"That's what I'm counting on..." Peter said.

"Hello? Can I have four pizzas tomorrow? Do you have Dragon's Breath chili peppers? Can we have triple the amount of peppers?" Peter ordered.

After that, was some shut-eye.


FRIDAY...

The boys made their way to school. It was the worst day for the students. Kipper had told his friends about the shaving cream, and they could've never been angrier.

"HEY! WHERE'S MY EIGHT DOLLARS?!" Kipper yelled at Donny Glover, who happened to be the first kid in school.

"I thought you said four dollars..." Donny said.

"I did! But the taxes went up again! I'm not stopping this until I find out who's pranking me!"

"I... don't... know who it is," Donny grunted.

Donny got the worst wedgie of his life.

"So bring me twelve dollars on Monday! Or you're gonna wish you've never been born!"

The students all got similar treatments. Unfortunately for the bullies, no one knew who was behind this. When lunch came, Kipper took the pizzas again. They strutted over to the lunch table.

"MMMMMM! Look at all the tasty pizza we got! Aw, that's so sad." Kipper taunted.

Each of the bullies grabbed a slice and jammed it in their mouths. Suddenly, the were turned on.

"Whew! This pizza's kinda hot." Louie said.

"Yeah, this pizza's is really hot!" Buzz said.

"OWOWOWOWOOWOWOW! This pizza's way too hot!" Kipper said.

"It's burns! It's burns!" Thug said.

The effect of the spiciest chili pepper in the world has taken effect. Peter had a smug look on his face. The bullies ran to the nearest water fountain to wash off the spiciness, but it was not enough. The next thing they did was to take milk drank the entire stock. This whole thing was recorded by Peter on his phone. While the bullies were being taken away to be treated by the nurse, Peter uploaded the video online, which became viral.


After school, the boys went over to the groundskeeper shed and collected a bunch of spiders. They took the spiders and filled Kipper and his goon's lockers with the spiders within a few minutes. The boys then went over to the locker room in the gym. Behind them, a storm was coming...

"This is deodorant?" Chris said, checking Kipper's bag.

Johnson unscrewed the stick of the deodorant all the way to the top. He then removed the stick. Peter opened a packet of extra-hot Habanero cream cheese and placed it on the deodorant. He then shaped it to look like the stick of deodorant. They did the same to Louie, Buzz, and Thug's deodorant too. Then they went back to the hallway and placed copies of the story they wrote in the vents of the lockers. Peter placed a walkie-talkie on top of the lockers.


Meanwhile, back in the gym, the bullies smeared some deodorant on and made their way to their lockers.

CRASH!

The sound of thunder cracked just as the bullies swung their door open.

"Lockers! Spiders!" Louie panicked. "We gotta get out of here!"

"Wait, what's this?" Kipper said, noticing a written document.

THE HAUNTED TALE OF WEDGIE MAGEE


As Kipper read the story out loud, more of Wedgie Magee was unfolded. Wedgie Magee was a kindergartner who was tired of being bullied. He visited a fortune-teller who gave him a magic potion to stop the wedgies he's receiving. But since she was near-sighted, she got the wrong bottle. Wedgie tried the potion on his pants when getting harassed by the bullies again, but his pants disappeared. Wedgie died of the embarrassment, but his pants lived on. Each bully was given a random sign of getting cursed, like playing with dolls, bracelets, and dresses, ectoplasm will get on their stuff, food like pizza will become spicy, and their armpits will become burning. Each bully was then swallowed shortly after.

"How to undo the curse," Kipper read. "You must return all the money to the kids and never pick on anybody again!"

Buzz felt a burning on his armpit.

"I think I got the curse, man! Game over!"

It wasn't just Buzz.

"Me too! My armpits are burning too!" Louie said.

"What have we done?" Thug said.

Kipper's armpits were also burning, but he was too afraid to admit it.


The boys could hear the bullies' cries out in the hallway. They tried very hard not to laugh. Peter used the walkie-talkie.

"Kipper..." He said hauntingly.

"Did... Did you guys hear that?!" Kipper said.

"I'm coming for you..."

Thug was on the ground, crying for his mom. Louie was running around in circles.

"We're sorry! We're sorry!" Buzz pleaded.

The bullies then ran for the bathroom, just as the boys were setting everything up.

"Wh-What are you doing with those pants, kids?" Kipper said to Chris and Johnson.

"What pants?" Johnson said.

Peter stepped forward in the pants.

BOOM!

Suddenly, time seemed to stand very still...

BOOM!

The bullies stepped back in horror...

BOOM!

They opened their mouths to scream...

BOOM!

But not a sound came out...

BOOM!

Peter took another step at the bullies...

BOOM!

And the bullies all ran to the door...

CRASH!

Everything became dark. A lightning strike struck a nearby tree which caused it to be knocked over to a power line. The bullies all ran for the door.

The janitor was their next obstacle. He was trying to figure out what was wrong. Kipper and his goons ran into him. Perhaps they thought it was another monster. They beat up the janitor with all the strength they had.


The four bullies all made their way out the back of the school. As they ran across the football fields and to their homes, something about them changed forever. They would never be the same despicable bullies they once were...


MONDAY...

It was a terrible day for Donny Glover. He wasn't able to get the twelve dollars. So he thought of going to the back of the school. Kipper noticed this.

"Hey, kid! I've got something for you!"

Kipper ran up and gave Donny a five-dollar bill.

"Is this a trick?" Donny said.

"No. I just want to say that I'm sorry for stealing your money." Kipper said.

"Okay," Donny said, confused about what happened.

All around the school, the students noticed the changes. Buzz was not only giving out money, but also carrying everyone's backpacks to class. Thug was not only giving out money, but also free bubblegum to the students. Louie was also letting the students wedgie him as much as they like.


PRESENT DAY...

"Eventually, Kipper and his goons returned all of the stolen money and never picked on another person ever again," Chris said.

"That was beautiful," Wendy said.

"Hey! How did you get here?" Chris said.

"The door was open..." Wendy said.

"Oh..." Chris said.

Then, Peter walked into the scene.

"What are you doing in my house?" He said.

THE END.
