Fight!

Fight!

The chant of fight resonates around the hallway of Lockwood High. People gathered around the hallway to see the fight. Student pulled their phone with that followed—was the sound of stuttering of clicking picture along with the chant of fight resonates around the hallway.

"Go get him ,Paige Carter!"Someone from the crowd shouted and that followed by cheering from the rest of the students.

She held a bulky looking boy by the locker, her hair tied in two fish tail braid. Her blue eye sparked in a challenging way.

"And this is what you get for bullying Aiden!"She said and punched his jaw. Student hollered and she smirked as she saw the red big bruise on Ryan jaw.

"You bitch!"Ryan spated and tried to charge her ,but she moved left and held his hand, twisting it behind his back.

"A bad ass bitch, you shouldn't mess with!"She snarled near his ear while Ryan struggled hard to get out from her hold.

"You bi—"Before he could complete his sentence , a man in in late fifties made his way toward him. The crowd gasped and broke into mummer as they saw their principal walking toward Paige with a lived expression.

"What is going my on here?"He said and glared at everyone though his cresent moon shaped glasses.

"You can clearly see what's going on, sir! " Paige said and her hold in Ryan's hand tighten. Ryan eyes closed tightly in pain, he gritted his teeth to stop himself from screaming.

"Paige Carter, how many times do I have to tell you not to go around fighting with students!" His stern voice resonated around the hallway as he pinned her with his glare.

Students around the hallway broke in mummering.

Paige smirked and put pressure on Ryan's twisted hand to which he let out slow curse under his breath.

"Stop! Paige, in my office, now!"The principal of Lockwood high, John. Said and with out spearing a second glance ,he walked away.

"You fucking, bitch!"Ryan scream broke through the entire hallways and she gave a twist to his hand harshly before pushing him away.

She smirked at his form that was laying in the floor, helplessly screaming in pain, cluching his hand.

No student dare utter a word. Also because they knew Ryan deserves it after the kind of bullying he did with Aiden.

"Aiden!"Paige called the lanky looking guy with glasses , who was standing and hiding behind the crowd of students.

Aiden stilled and he looked at her nervously, sudden very consious about the crowd of students glaze on him.

"Come here and do what he did to you." Even though Paige's voice was soft , her voice held a command that can't be mistaken.

Aiden shook his head nervously ,and took a step back. Too scared of the consequences to face his bully.

"Aiden ,I won't repeat again. Come here before I come there and drag you." Her voice was stern but her eyes held a sense of protection toward Aiden, which he didn't failed to saw.

Gaining courage, he stepped closeted and the crowd slowly parted and gave him way to reach where Paige was standing.

As Aiden came and stood next to her, looking nervous then ever, she smiled at him assureingly and placed her hand on his shoulder.

"Now,Now, Aiden. You remember what he did to you?"Paige tilted her head slightly and looked at him. Her eyes sparkled with mischief.

"I–I .. He tried to–to corner me near the staircase , and he lo–locked me in one of the rooms near the staircase. "Aiden stammered and looked down.

Paige's hand around Aiden shoulder clenched into fist. Even though her demeanor was calm and composed, but the one who knew her, knows what was about to come Ryan's way.

"He locked you and beat you into pulp , didn't he?" Her eyes didn't leave Ryan's form , who was groaning in pain.

She didn't care what was going to happen after that, she didn't care if principal John kicks her out. All she wanted to do before going to principal's office is—punish Ryan.

She turned her head toward Aiden and looked at him , her eyes held a hidden fire.

"Go punch him. Punch him with all your might." She patted his shoulder and gestured to go ahead.

Aiden shook his head in fear , he eyes casted down as he heard Ryan mutter some curse and about how he will break his legs if he punched him.

"If you are scared of this nincompoop ,then how will you protect yourself from the real predator who lurk outside, ready to bully you in just one sign of weakness?"She looked at Aiden first and then turned to glare at Ryan.

"You will face the consequences,bitc–"Before Ryan could complete his sentence, a punch landed on his face.

He groaned in pain and then slowly turned his head to see Aiden stood towering him, his shaky hands fisted and soon followed was another punch.

Aiden had tears of anger in his eyes and he punched Ryan one last time before he was pulled back by Paige.

"Okay , okay. This is enough for today."Paige turned and looked at the students,"Show is over kids, go back to your classes. "She waved her hand shooing them.

She looked at Aiden and patted his shoulder before giving one hateful glare to Ryan ,and walked away.

Paige sat with her best friend in the bleacher, her face held a smile as her best friend overexcitedly talked about how she help Aiden with the forever bully Ryan. Her kept her eye down casted as she could feel her boyfriend's heated stare.

"..And then ,principal John called her, and instead of warning her. He just said she should stop playing Robinhood amongst the students. He didn't even scolded her. Even though I am not at all surprised that ,he didn't. After all Paige is the best martial art player in our school. Taking action against her means, losing all the medals." Kabita , her best friend laughed while munching one of the French fires that she stole from Paige's plate.

"Nice. But Paige, don't you think this is going to far. I understand that you wanted to help Aiden, but did you forget that he has feeling for you?"Jelousy was clearly visible in Marcus, her boyfriend's face.

Paige smile turned into frown, her lip pursed in thin line.

"Don't be so jealous ,Marcus. Aiden is a kid.He is freaking 2 years younger then me. And feeling or no feeling, nothing would stop me from helping anyone." She sparky electric blue eyes held the same fire.

"Okay ,Okay calm down guys. And let go now. I have to babysit my cousin's daughter. I hope that spawn of hooman won't throw much of tantrums." Kabita sigh dramatically and slumped against her chair.

Paige laughed and kicked her leg. She got up and followed by both Marcus and Kabita.

Kabita walked ahead of then and got out of the campus, while Paige was waiting for her boyfriend to finally blast at her. But non happened. Rather she was turned and a soft pair of lips landed on her forehead.

"I am so proud of you. But you know right, I get jealous easily?"He said and Paige smile.

"I understand. Now let's go."She kissed his cheeks and both walked out of the campus hand in hand, unaware that a pair of blue and half brown eyes stared at her, under the dark shadow of tree is following their every move.
