Dislaimer: I don't own Jimmy Neutron or any related characters.

Jimmy awoke a few minutes later. With his eyes still closed, he put his hand to his face. His face contorted as the burning sensation returned. He reached across the floor and grabbed his knife. He slowly opened his eyes. "Steph?" he whispered as he stared up at a girl.

"Thank goodness you're awake! I thought you were, uh, well," she quietly went on before helping him up. She wrapped him in a giant hug and stared in his eyes. "What happened?"

Jimmy closed fidgeted and broke their eye contact. "The killer, murderer, whatever."

"Glad to see you're awake, Neutron. You actually had me worried for a second," Eustace said as he approached Jimmy.

"You!" Jimmy shouted as he ran at Eustace and pushed him into a wall of lockers. Jimmy took out his knife and pressed it against his throat. "You will pay. God, will you pay," Jimmy seethed through clenched teeth.

Suddenly Cindy, Butch, Mike, and Jason walked up to them. They froze as they saw Jimmy nearly killing Eustace.

Cindy ran up to Jimmy. "Jimmy, what are you doing?"

"This little shit tried to kill me!" Jimmy shouted as he pressed the knife a little more into Eustace's throat. He watched as a trickle of blood rolled over his Adam's apple.

Eustace was sweating bullets and closing his eyes. "What are you talking about? I didn't do anything!" he whispered while opening his eyes.

Everyone stood in silence as Jimmy stared into Eustace's pleading eyes. He didn't see anger or hatred, just fear. God, it's not him. Jimmy pulled the knife away from Eustace's throat and released his hold on him.

Eustace rubbed his throat and bent his head down. He then kicked Jimmy hard in the stomach. Jimmy bent over and dropped the knife. Eustace quickly snatched it up and smiled an evil grin. He shoved Jimmy into the wall opposite where he had just been. He pressed the knife into Jimmy's throat.

"How dare you! You think I'm the killer? You little-," Eustace started to say.

"Let go of him!" Stephanie angrily yelled as she grabbed Eustace's arm.

"Stay out of this, you little bitch," Eustace said as he shoved her away. Jimmy took this opportunity to knee Eustace in the groin. Both Eustace and Jimmy looked at the fallen knife on the floor. They both reached for it, but Cindy scooped it up first.

"Everybody freeze!" she yelled. All of the kids stared at her. "We already have a homicidal maniac trying to kill us all! Isn't that enough of a problem for one day?" she tiredly asked.

"How do we know Eustace isn't the killer? Or any other one of us?" Mike asked.

Jimmy walked up to Cindy, who handed him the knife. He slipped it back in his pocket. He sighed as he looked at Eustace. "We don't know yet. But let's not make any more enemies than we have to," Jimmy said. He paused and nodded at Eustace. "Let's just get back to the classroom where we're safe."

Everyone nodded and began the trek back to Mr. Fitz's class.
