"Stop!" An old, raspy voice hollered from behind the students, coming from the front desk, putting an abrupt halt and preventing the disaster that was about to unfold.
"Mr. Sanders, would you be so kind as to… MOVE YOUR FEET BACK UNDER YOUR DESK?!" Jonathan roared with a mixture of annoyance and anger. Annoyed and angry because he had to waste his precious time and energy in such a pointless squabble between children. Still, he had the feeling that if he didn't act in time and would have let the new boy finish stomping down with his feet, the consequences would have been disastrous.
The teacher's warning was enough to resolve the situation, albeit barely. Lucien decided to not act on his initial thought and instead moved his feet slightly forward, just avoiding the clash and allowing the brawny youth to pull his leg back.
