After being forced to leave the building, Abel went home where he saw his mother waiting for his arrival in the sitting room.
"I thought something might have happened to you guys and I would have called the police" those were the words that came out of his mother's mouth when she saw her son coming in.
"But I have stayed out much longer than this so why didn't you call the police then" asked Abel.
"That is because I knew you were at your friend's place. So how did it go" said his mother.
"It went well mother" replied Abel before taking a seat close to his mother as they begin to chat.
After they are done chatting Abel bid his mother goodnight before going to his room where he lay down until it was morning again and he has to hurry to school.
"Looks like I am the first to arrive in school today" said Abel with a smile on his face as he makes his way to when he heard a heavy sound coming from his classroom and he had to hurry.
"what is Mr. McCray doing in my class at this time" wonders Abel as he makes his way towards the direction of his classroom.
Meanwhile, in the classroom, four boys were standing with their back facing the entrance of the classroom with student sitting on the ground with his head lowered.
"what did I tell you the other day about helping me with my assignment Perry" asked one of the boys.
"But I did help with your assignment, so why are you still picking on me" reply Perry with his head still lower.
"Yeah you did but I was not given a perfect score for the assignment and you know what the consequences are" said the boy before kicking Perry on the stomach.
After the boy has successfully landed a kick on him, the other three begin to attack him also until a yell came from the entrance.
"What the hell are you guys doing" yelled Abel after finally making it to his classroom.
"We are not here for you so get the hell out of here boy" said the leader of the boys.
Abel was just about to walk away since their victim would only end up having a bruise on him but before he could, he suddenly caught sight of Perry who was sitting on the ground with his head lower.
"Perry is that you" Abel called out with a frown.
There was silence from the other side until the leader of the boys let out a chuckle before speaking out.
"I think the kid is talking to you Perry".
"I am fine Abel, why don't you go play outside until we are done with our chitchat" said Perry as he tried to persuade Abel to leave but it only makes things worse.
"So these guys are the ones responsible for those wounds on you the other day" asked Abel with his fist clenched together.
"Please just go wait outside" plead Perry but before he could continue pleading, the leader of the boys suddenly kicks him which lead to Perry gritting his teeth in pain.
"What if we are the one who made him look like that, what are you going to do about it" he asked with a proud smile on his face.
Instead of answering his question, Abel suddenly push his leg off the ground as he dashed at him with his fist stretched forward ready to punch the leader in the face.
At first, the leader of the boys thought that he would be able to handle Abel but the moment that he saw him coming, he regret while he had to give the boy the chance to make the first move as the fist landed squarely on his face which led to him falling on the ground with a broken tooth.
"Get him" the leader roared in anger while placing one hand on his mouth with the other pointing at Abel.
After getting an order from their leader, the three remaining members begin to charge at Abel to beat the living hell out of him but all that changes after another of their members who was close to Abel was smacked on the stomach as he was sent backward before falling on the ground unconscious.
The others couldn't help but stop in their track as they stare at him as if they were looking monster and seeing how his people got scared quickly the leader couldn't help but yelled in anger.
"Why are you just standing there looking at him as a fool when you have the advantage of number in your favor".
They hesitated a little after hearing their leader and begin to charge at him but Abel wasn't bothered the least about them as he easily beat them up to the stage that they could not get up.
"This is just a warning to all of you, the next time I discover that you are picking on my friend again, you can think of visiting the hospital with broken bones" said Abel with a cold look before walking towards Perry who still had his mouth open in surprise as he stares at Abel.
"I never knew that you were this good at fighting" he said.
"It's nothing new, I am more surprised as to how you got beaten up by these fools" replied Abel still maintaining the cold look on his face.
"Let's not bother ourselves with that anymore since you have already taken care of everything" said Perry with a sigh.
Abel decided to not talk about the matter as he help his friend up before yelling at the four to leave their classroom since it is not theirs to begin with in the first place.
The four begin to help each other up before rushing out of the classroom while grumbling in pain.
"so when do you plan to teach me how to fight" joke Perry with a smile.
"Right after we go to see the school doctor" reply Abel before dragging Perry out of the class.
