Previously on Leading My Bullies:
"What are we going to do? We know that Jason and the others will never believe us and they won't ask Color for help." Skye whispered but then Marshall came up with an idea. "I got an idea but it involves getting a certain pup ghost to help..." Marshall told them and the three ghosts then knew the plan in an instant and they all whispered at the same time
"Sweetie."
"So you want me and Patrica to help you guys with this girl?" Sweetie aka Patrica's ghost asked the other ghost pups. It was in the middle of lunch and Issac was feeling better than he was yesterday as if the bug lasted 24hrs. Anyways, the ghost pups were all talking to each other and Skye, Chase, and Marshall had to ask Sweetie for help. "Yeah, that new girl Heather decided it was a good idea to prank Issac by leaving him a nasty note in his locker and to prank Color by turning up their alarm sound." Chase admitted and Ryder who overheard this was also shocked. "So Heather's the girl that Piper saw broke in and tried to stop!" Ryder admitted which shocked Skye, Chase, Marshall, and Sweetie. "Ok, we may not be on best terms but I can try to get enough details on Heather about why she's doing this but it's as hard as why those who are connected to us are being mean to the one connected to Ryder." Sweetie admitted. "Well, this is going to be harder than we thought." Skye admitted and then the bell rang which means it's time for the next class so the ghosts went back to where they were connected to and followed them to their class. It turns out that Issac, Jason, Color, Jerald, Natahlia, Lila, Landon, Patricia, and Lily shared the next class together even tho the majority of their classes are shared between those guys and they rarely have a few alone. Anyways, the class they have right now is Weaponomics for their grade and it's being taught by one of Color's aunts who is connected to Mayor Humdinger and her name is Country. Anyways, as everyone in the class were sitting down they noticed that Color's aunt wasn't there and it turns out that the Weaponomics Teacher for the college students is subbing for the class. He's connected to Farmer Yumi and his name is Mr. Martinez. "Hello everyone! I'm Mr. Martinez and I'll be your substitute for the day!" Mr. Martinez told the class and this confused Color since they haven't seen their cousins or sisters at all today. They also haven't seen their aunts but the only relatives they saw today was their aunt and cousin on their mom side. Their aunt Michelle and their cousin Jourge (pronounced the same as Gourge as in the gourge of the dessert) along with Moe and Piper. So, it was only their sisters and their relatives on their dad side which concerned them. Anyways, after attendance Mr. Martinez was confused on why Color was here but he didn't say anything at all. So he then decided to teach the class what they left off on learning about which was the weapons in Jake and the neverland pirates. After class and a few more around 2:00pm, it was training time and as they were training a phone call came in and the Headmaster who is named Headmaster Almas answered the phone in the gym aka training area but then his expression changed from a happy bubbly sunshiney mood to a sad mood. He then called Color over and he gave them the phone. "Hello?" Color asked the other person on the other line of the phone and it turns out to be their dad. "Hey Sweetheart, so I have bad news and it's about your Papa." Color's dad told them and for those who don't know then Color's Papa is her Dad's dad. Their mom's dad died when they were 7yrs old. Anyways, Color asked "What about Papa? Is he ok?" "Well, he's in the hospital and he's not doing too good. We're trying everything we could to bring you here but by the time we bring you here may be too late since he doesn't have long left." Color's dad told Color which made them tear up.
(Fun Fact: My Papa *Dad's dad* died on March Friday the 13th but this doesn't take place in March. Anyways, it is true that the majority of my relatives on my dad's side plus my dad got to see Papa in the hospital on his death bed but me and my sisters and my relatives who lived far away didn't get to see him. So this part of the story is based on a true event but sadder because in this it was only Color who didn't get to see their Papa. Also yes I lost my Mom's dad aka Pepaw when I was 7. The last words I heard from both my PePaw and Papa were "I love you". Also yes this chapter is acting as a vent thing because I need to let it all out even tho Papa has been gone for a year and 20 days.)
"Carry on with training ok? I'll let you know of anything happens." Color's dad told them and they nodded. The two said their goodbyes and Color hung up but they couldn't help but tear up. They then pulled through and went back to training bit at exactly 2:45pm, the phone rang again and it was for Color but it was bad news. "Is Papa ok?" Color asked as soon as they got the phone from Headmaster Almas. Color could tell that it was bad news because they could hear their dad crying on the other end but he pulled himself together and he told them "Almost 10 minutes ago at 2:35pm... Papa passed away sweetheart." Color immediately went silent and tears ran down their face. The phone then fell out of their hands which ended the call but didn't destroy the phone but Color didn't care about that. They then soon fell to their knees on the gym floor, held their stomach, and before they knew it they started to scream cry which made everyone who was training look at them with concerned looks. Lily, Aduio, Landon, Piper, Moe, and Jourge all ran to Color and they all hugged them. Well, Piper and Moe rubbed themselves against Color but still! Color just lost someone close to them and they didn't get to say the last I love you to them. Color got to go back to the dorms early and Aduio let Luigi, Butter, Alex, George, and Bow know about this so that they wouldn't be surprised. By the time the boys got back to the dorms with Piper, they all saw Ryder trying to get into Color's and Aduio's shared room but he was failing miserably. "Any luck?" Danny asked Ryder and Ryder shook his head no. "Zane, what can we do to get Color out?" Luigi asked his ghost Zane and Zane told him "Nothing yet, but from experience we should try to get them to eat something like how me and Jay did when Lloyd was devastated over the lost of his father and how he was trying to get over the battle with the SOG after we came back from the First Realm." "That's going to be hard but if we all work together then we can do it!" Bow admitted and everyone in the dorm including the ghosts agreed. That's when it hit Ryder, Danny, and Aduio that for the time being that they're locked out of their room. Butter then asked George "Isn't today Friday the 13th?" "Yeah... Usually Color has Goodluck on these days but it looks like the first bad thing happened to them involves someone they love dying." George admitted. "Let's be there for Color no matter what ok?" Alex replied and everyone nodded.
It was a rough weekend but Color felt better on Monday so they went to school but something about them was off like every single time they passed by their sisters or relatives on their dad side, they would just ignore them. Even when they were in their dad's sisters classes, they kept on ignoring them. It was as if they were mad at them for not getting them soon enough or let them know about their Papa. Their relatives could have done something like call them to wake them up or anything but they didn't at all as if they were too focused to realized that their Papa also had another grandchild who is Non-binary.
