3:00 PM James K Polk High School

Ned Bigby sat in silence. Here he was in the principal's office on the first day of school. He had been here all day or basically from 12:50 onward. All he has done for this time was recounting the events that brought him here anyway.

"I should have just kept my big mouth shut"

12:20 PM James K Polk Cafeteria

Moze and Cookie exchanged nervous glances. "Calm down man" Cookie said to Ned "It was just a joke, you're not THAT dumb". Moze and Lisa both elbowed Cookie for that comment.

"No, Cookie, it's not like that." Ned replied "I'm sick of her always putting me down or treating me like crap". Ned wasn't even that mad from being called stupid, it was the comment of him still being in love with her that set him off. "I'm dumb, I already know that" Ned said.

Moze thought about this statement and offered a question, "Then why be so mad over it?"

"He still loves me" Suzie answered "That's why. You will never stop Ned"

"Shut up! I hate you!" Ned shouted

By now a small group of on-looking upperclassman had started watching this spectacle unfold. "This is awesome!" one said. Another chimed in "and this is only the first day!"

Martin, who has been sitting at the table just trying to keep to himself, had enough of Ned. "YouknowNedyoushouldn'tbesomadatSuzieforcheatingonyou." Martin said in his usual fast way "Youjustcouldn'tsatisfyherthewayIdid"

Everyone's jaw at the table dropped. "Holy shit" Cookie said. The upperclassman all let out a big "OHHHHHHH" and chants of "Served" started up.

No administrators were coming yet. Ned took note of this. "Hey Martin, why don't you sit down before I make yo-"Ned was trying to say before being cut off by Martin. "Noyousitdownandstopcausingascene" Martin shot in.

Ned reached his boiling point.

He reared back his fist and delivered a swift blow to Martin's face. Martin collapsed in a heap to the ground.

"OHHHHH Shit" the upperclassman once again chimed in with. Moze and Cookie just stared blankly at Ned, who looked just as confused. "Oh crap" Ned thought.

The administrators had arrived just in time to see the shot though.

1:00 PM Principal's Office

Ned sat in the office, by himself, with ice on his knuckles. Turns out he may have broken three of his fingers and Martin's nose. He didn't mean to hit Martin, but anger changes people. Ned wasn't even a violent person, it just happened in a spur of the moment thing.

"Apparently they got a new principal. Wonder who it is?" Ned thought as he noticed the lack of basically anything on the desk.

"Mr. Bigby! Should have known you would be getting in trouble" a booming voice said from behind.

"Oh no" Ned thought "That better not be who I think it is!"

Ned turned around and was stunned at who he saw

1:00 PM Gym class

Cookie, Moze, Lisa, and Suzie all had gym together, well along with Ned and Martin as well. No one really felt like talking after lunch, it was just too shocking.

"So, uh, how is Martin?" Moze asked Suzie. "He is doing alright, although his nose is pretty messed up" she replied "Ned is such a jerk."

"Well you did kind of antagonize him" Cookie said "You know he has a temper and is easily set off"

"That is no excuse" Suzie said "Stop attempting to prove his actions right"

"Oh, maybe not, but that doesn't mean Martin didn't have it coming" Billy Loomer said as he walked over to the four. Loomer was at a table with some upperclassman and Buzz and Crony as well, when the fight occurred. "Me and Ned may have some differences, but I would have done the same thing"

"For once, I actually agree with Loomer" Moze said "Martin should have kept his mouth shut"

"You guys are missing the point" Suzie said "Ned punched Martin in the face. Whatever the circumstances, it still doesn't make it right."

"Not right, but understandable" Loomer said "But, I'm not gonna attempt to reason with you, Cya" Loomer left to join his other friends. "Bigby earned some respect points in my book" he thought.

Moze turned to Suzie "Well, I'll talk to Ned later to see why he did that. I know he wouldn't do that on purpose"

"Whatever" Suzie said as the period ended and everyone went their separate ways

2:30 PM Principal's Office

Ned still couldn't believe who he saw.

"So I hope we got your punishment clear, Mr. Bigby" Principal Sweeney said, "You have a two day suspension, as well as lunch in here everyday for the rest of the marking period, and after school detentions for a month!"

Ned groaned "Fine, just answer me this one question"

"Sure" Sweeney said

"Why are you here?" Ned asked

"Well, Ned to be honest, they offered me more money than my teaching job. So, I took it. I'm an honest guy, I enjoy more money, and I enjoy enforcing the rules: This job was made for me!" Sweeney answered

"Well, at least you're honest" Ned said

The phone rang in the office and Sweeney answered it. "Yes send her in now" he said.

3:00 Office

Ned was waiting for his mom outside Sweeney's office. "Sweeney is probably just giving my mom new ways of punishing me" he thought.

The door opened up and Ned's mom walked out. "Always a pleasure Mr. Sweeney" she said as she closed the door. "You are so grounded" she said flatly to Ned.

"I knew today was going to bed bad" Ned thought.

3:30 Moze's Room

Moze sat in her room, reading a book. She was at this point in time reading Upton Sinclair's Oil!. She looked out her window and noticed Ned had just gotten home from school. She picked up her cell and tried to call, no answer though. "Must be confiscated" Moze said aloud. She grabbed some paper and held a sign up to the window. It said "What's the damage?"

Ned took notice of the sign and made one of his own "Two days of suspension, plus more"

Moze looked sad over this; she really missed Ned over the summer. Now he was going to be gone even more. Something was buzzing in Moze's heart, but she wasn't going to let it consume her.
