[Chapter 7: Out of commission ]
The next day was quite tame even regarding the events of the previous day. It took me awhile to find out, but I had finally realized that we had created quite the group. We had Dylan, Brooke, Angel, Tyler, James, and me. I felt like it was time that I filled in my friends and the other stand users we had defeated on our current state. I began asking everyone to meet me after school as I saw them throughout the day. Morgan, of course, refused to come to our meeting. I assumed I had might as well tried. With the day over, I met up with all my friends in an empty room. "Alright everyone. Now I don't wanna be here any longer than you guys so let's get down to the point: we've developed quite the crew over the last few weeks. On top of that, our crew will only grow in size."
Dylan raised his hand. "Er, what exactly is this supposed to mean?" I slammed a table just to amplify my presence. "I was getting to that. Now, we are all under the understanding that Nugent and Bodie are our enemies, correct?" Everyone nodded in agreement. "Well, I feel like after we grab a few more members, we could have a strong enough foundation to be able to confront Nugent and Bodie once and for all."
Dylan stood up proudly. "I think we're good to do it now!" He loudly stated. "Not sure that's such a good plan." Angel followed. "Yeah, maybe it's a good idea if we all like wanted to die." Brooke said sarcastically. "You see? Everyone thinks it's a bad idea." I assured Dylan. He shook his head.
"You guys are just being too cautious! We can definitely beat Nugent...I don't even wanna talk to you guys right now. Come find me when you grow a spine." Dylan stormed out of the room. "Let him cool off...he'll be fine. Anyway, thanks guys. You guys can get going. I'll talk to you all later." They all said their salutations and exited the room. I sighed to myself and followed them out.
Dylan was at football practice at this point. He knew this was his chance to prove that Nugent was no big deal at all. As soon as break started, Dylan followed Nugent behind the gym. Nugent seemed to be writing something down, but Teen Spirit suddenly flung the pen right out of Nugent's hand. "Ah, Dylan. Enjoying all of your power?" Dylan clenched his fist. "I know you're the real enemy here Nugent...my friends have given me multiple reasons to believe so, and I won't fall for your manipulation anymore!" Teen Spirit and Dylan stood strong and intimidatingly. Nugent sighed. "Too bad that your mind doesn't look like it'll be changed. I always liked ya, Dylan. Too bad this is where you get out." Nugent's stand had finally shown itself to Dylan. A large Bull with gold horns and a jersey. "I call it Becoming the Bull. Strongest stand to date."
Dylan shook his head. "NO ITS NOT! YOU KNOW HOW I KNOW?!" Teen Spirit charged at Nugent with a series of slashes. "BECAUSE MY STAND IS THE STRONGEST NUGENT! AGHHH!" The unrelenting onslaught of slashes continued to claw at The Bull. However, Nugent seemed to take no damage. Teen Spirit retreated back. "W-what the hell...?" Nugent shrugged.
"The horns are the strongest part of my stand. The defensive capabilities of them are unheard of. And just like any bull, if you mess with it..." Suddenly, a sharp pain was felt in Dylan's lower gut. He looked down to see The Bull's horn pierced through him. "You get the horns." Blood began spurting out in a rapid fashion. Dylan fell to the ground. "G-gaaaaahhhhh!" He was so weak at that point he couldn't even utter a loud enough scream. He held his stomach as the blood poured out. "I...I have to...tell Gavin...about The Bull...!" He tried his hardest to crawl. "I've been his friend...since preschool...I...I won't let this happen to him...!" Nugent walked up to Dylan.
"Pathetic. You didn't have a chance. Your friends don't have a much better chance either. Anyway, this was fun, but I gotta finish practice." The Bull was called out one final time. And the last thing Dylan saw was its hooves hovering over him.
The next day, when school started, I noticed Angel, James, Tyler and Brooke were standing over something behind the gym. So naturally, I headed over as well. "What's going on...?" I asked as I approached my group.
"The idiot went along anyway..." Brooke said faintly. "Dylan's gone..." She clenched her fist. I couldn't believe it actually. The other guys were speechless. I stayed silent for a minute or two before finally turning around. "Now you guys see...how much we need to be careful...Nugent's no laughing matter..." Brooke looked like she was mad at me.
"How could you sit here and worry about Nugent when one of our friends were killed...?"
I glared at her. "He was my friend since Preschool, I'll have you know. I'm trying to look tough..." I shook my head. "He didn't deserve it. What really gets me is how well Nugent hid him..." His stand was above the ground but Dylan was too far in the ground for anyone to notice.
"Let's just...try and keep our cool for today. There's more stand users that can help us in the long run." I nodded my head.
"Yeah...and we can't consult the police either...Nugent will just take them out too...let's keep this stuff on the down low for now, alright?" Everyone agreed, and the first bell rung. We all headed to our classes.
