Danny was silently humming to himself as he was walking through the halls. He finally got to school at a decent time and actually made it to class on time. Right now, he was on his way to his locker to meet up with his friends for lunch. Halfway to his locker however, he saw something that made his blood boil. Mikey, the local nerd of Casper High, was slammed against the lockers with Dash, the local bully of Amity Park, was laughing as his friends were trying to decide what to do.
"Come on nerd, give me all your lunch money!" Dash cackled as he reeled a fist back. Before he brought his fist down, Danny threw his backpack on the ground, jumped into action, and snatched Mikey from Dash's death grip and gotten him to a safer location. When Dash brought his fist down, he was met with the cold metal of a locker. Dash screams as the others tried their hardest to not laugh. "FENTURD!"
Danny rolled his eyes, 'Why does he always blame me?!' Danny slouched, giving the impression that he is still small, and walked up to Dash. "What is it this time?" Danny asks in an almost bored tone. The other hot head saw this as a bad thing and picked Danny up by his shirt. "Since that little nerd got away, I guess I would have to deal with you instead!"
But what happened next surprised everyone. Instead of taking the punch like he usually does Danny grabs the hand holding his shirt and backflips off the locker, pulling the arm in his hand with him. Dash goes with the momentum, having not fully registered what was happening before he was met with the cold, white tiles of the school. Danny does not say anything as he picks his backpack up, gives the other jocks a nod, and walking back to his designation.
"You did what?!" Sam and Tucker yell in delight. Danny just finished the story of how he took down Dash in a single swipe. Surprisingly, Sam does not yell and get onto Danny like she normally does. Instead, she gives him a giant hug and a promise to cuddle after school, Danny always loved to cuddle like a cat after school for some reason. Valerie just sat there with Jazz, snickering into their food as they watched the three have fun.
Before Danny could say another word, he was hit in the back of the head with mash potatoes. "Fenturd, how dare you embarrass me in front of the jocks!" Someone screamed. The quartet sighed in perfect union as they didn't need to turn around to know who was screaming. Danny sighs as he nearly facepalmed into his food. "Trust me, you did not need my help with completing that," Danny smarted off.
Everyone was snickering until Dash slammed his hand on the lunch table, "Do you seriously take me as a joke?!" He screamed, silencing everyone in the lunchroom. Before the teachers could jump in and do something, Danny suddenly stood up and nearly slammed his face into Dash's. "If you ever half a mind to use, you would know that yes I do. Because you have so much potential in doing something amazing but you waste it on bullying. You bully for nor reason and it should not stick! If the teachers are going to do nothing about the bullying, then I am! I am not going to sit around and let you bully these innocent people no more. If you want a fight, come to me. Just know I am not going to stop at nothing until you change yourself."
No one said a word as Dash just stood there and looked like he was contemplating his options. "Why, why wait all this time and try to do something now."
Danny just simply smiled and hugged Dash, elating a gasp out of everyone in the lunchroom, "Because I wanted you to reach out first." was all he said as he slowly went back to eating his food, giving everyone a new sense meaning.
