What makes Us different? What is different? it's to not be the same. Humans separate themselves from each other by race, sex, age, culture, or religion. To feel either special about oneself, to make oneself distinct from the other, or to hate each other.

Clock ticks and tocks, as the minute hand lands at 8:15 am causing the ring of the bell. As all the 6th – 8th-grade students head to class.
We then see the principal of the school Ms. Latoya a 5'9' African American light skin woman with a red office shirt and pants wearing black heels with curly black hair, a bald 5'6 male security officer of European descent wearing his all-black uniform officer Daniel. Escorting a new 5'4 African American 8th-grade student with long black dreads, to class, by the name of Saturn. They conversed a little, as they walked down the white halls with a maroon-colored stripe going through the middle, to the 8th-grade hall.
"So, what school you came from Hun?" asked Ms. Latoya with a sweet yet deceiving tone. "I came from T.L western" stated Saturn plainly, yet knowing it was their rival school.
"Oh, really what for?" She asked with a fake smile knowing she was happy that T.L lost a student adding just another to theirs.
"Because my family moved so I had to come here". He said uncaring.
"That's a shame you had to move; do you miss your friends," She asked in an s faking it.
"Didn't have any so there's nothing to miss" He answered in his never changing tone
"Well, I'm sure you'll make some friends here but be careful of who you make friends with." She said hoping to give him a social boost to make friends.
"And don't be getting into this school mess and bullshit, cause these kids to stay being in mess, and shit half the boys be messier than the girls. But that's what you expect from these people." Officer Daniel said with obvious racism, looking dead at Saturn. Saturn crunched his face at the statement, he now had his first target, but there was no further comment as they arrived at his first period Class.
Ms. Latoya knocked on the door she waited a couple of seconds before it was opened by another 5'9 woman. The difference was she was brown skin and, long red and black hair wore a black and red sweat suit. This was Ms. Yasmine the P.E teacher. As you could see the class in the background was silent as can be, clearly raising suspicion of what they were previously doing, knowing this class was never quite even with the principal standing right there.
Skipping over her suspicion, since she had more important things to do today "Good morning Ms. Yasmine, This is your new student; he takes you first period." Ms. Latoya stated unbothered by the silence. "Why do you keep bringing these kids to me." Ms. Yasmine asked tired of constantly getting new students at this point.
Ms. Latoya just laughed knowing how Ms. Yasmine is. "Could you get a student to show him around to all of his classes, the counselors are out today." She states, then starts talking about how some students were smoking in the bathroom, to officer Daniel, while walking off. Saturn and Ms. Yasmine then walk inside the classroom full of boys, to them going back to what they were doing, some being on their phones, walking around the classroom, and others playing with a mini basketball.
"Gone head and introduced yourself." Ms. Yasmine did not care really what he did, as she went to take a seat at her desk in the back of the classroom. Saturn then walks in the front of the classroom they all start to get quiet.
As the Class observes Saturn, they see nothing special about him, except maybe his looks since in appearance he's above average and half of the boys in the school are below average, but none of them would ever admit that. He's wearing his plain uniform a maroon shirt with khaki pants.
"Aye I'm Saturn where I suppose to sit?" he said not caring for the attention or laughter after his statement, but he was confused about where he was to sit since barely anybody was in their assigned seat. He's just planning on what to do with the racist officer. "Right there" Ms. Yasmine pointed to a desk on the right side of the classroom, as she laughed at his short and quick introduction. As Saturn went to sit down in his seat, some of the students started asking him questions.
"What school you came from?"
"Which side do you live on?"
"What set do you rep?"
"How old you are?"
"What sign you throw up?"
"What's your street name?"
They all asked at a rapid rate which would seem overwhelming if it was somebody else.
"T.L"
"North"
"None"
"13"
"I'm not with none of that"
"Don't get one" he answered the questions just as quick as they came keeping a plain tone.
Some of the boys smacked their lips and when they heard him not with none of that they already thought he was a bitch. Unknowing to them almost all of them were bitches to Saturn. Most of the boys there weren't ready for the real struggle, they'd crack under real pressure, and cry when things get real.
After a while the class only got louder and louder, playing games and play fighting.
"All right y'all let's go to the gym y'all being too loud and they are testing downstairs". Ms. Yasmine said hoping Ms. Latoya don't come back up here saying something. As they make it to the mostly brown, white, and maroon-colored gym, another teacher's 7th-grade class is already in there, but their teacher made them sit in the bleachers and do work with officer Daniel watching them.
"Y'all don't bother me and go play dodge ball". Ms. Yasmine t care what they do while walking to the back of the gym, where the tables too got to sleep. As the students go play dodgeball, Saturn doesn't play and goes to sit in the bleachers, with some of the students from another class to be on his phone.
The officer from earlier walks up to Saturn.
"Why you not playing with the other folks for," he asked
"I do have to play with them," Sat said plainly, still looking down at his phone
"Well, no but-" Officer Daniel said, but was cut off by Saturn.
"Then there's your answer," Saturn said trying to end this conversation.
"Who you are getting smart with," said the officer mad at how Saturn rudely addressed him.
"I been smart I can't just be getting there, but if it is that hard for you to comprehend the person standing dead in my face". Saturn said with pure sarcasm. The officer then started yelling "Keeping talking and I'll lock your black ass up" he wasn't able to finish before he was cut off again by Saturn
"For what answering a question you asked me, and you not liking my response, that truly that would be very stupid of you to do," Saturn asked in a condescending tone as people started to stop what they were doing and look at them. "I would just tell them of the hate you have against me, and press charges against you since you are harassing me and calling me black ass that's a sign of a hate crime," Saturn said in a joyous tone, already loving where this was going.
"We're done here." the officer yelled at him, as he then tackled Saturn, pinned him to the ground, pressing his knee on his neck while he handcuffed him. The whole time Saturn remained completely unmoving, not resisting or showing any form of aggression.
Saturn then started gasping for air as he could barely breathe. Students watched as Saturn stopped breathing and took his last breath. As the Officer then got up off him. Ms. Yasmine soon came running, as the students had woken her up to tell her what happened. She rushed up the bleachers to check Saturn's pulse as she used to work in the medical department. She had found none and attempted to resuscitate him, but nothing worked he was dead.
"He's dead." Ms. Yasmine in a mere whisper and look of despair on her.
"You killed him." She then yelled in anger screaming at the Officer as two teachers came to hold her back. All the students had stopped what they were doing and gathered, while more teachers arrived, to calm down the situation and see what happened. Nobody said anything for six whole minutes, no one talked, screamed, yelled, or even cried.
By the 7th minute, all the students charged running up the bleachers and jumping the officer. Before he could comprehend what was happening, they were already on him they kicked, stomped, and punched. They took his gun, taser, walkie talkie, and then started to rip and remove his vest, and clothes throwing them to the side. As they continued their assault on the officer, teachers that were there at the time, attempted to stop the students and break them up, but they ultimately failed, as they beat the hell out of him. By the time they were done he was beaten bloody red and purple and was half naked only in a white tank top and white and blue boxers. His body looked like a mangled corpse it was a miracle he was still breathing. The only real reason the assault was stopped, was because the staff and more officers arrived to break them up. They called the ambulance, which rushed him to the hospital. As we see students were being arrested left and right. As all this happens Saturn laughs in the background loud as can be, but no one hears him or pays attention to him, not even paying attention to his dead body as he gets up and vanishes in the crowd.
Several days later

Delta Region Medical Hospital
We see a hospital room with Officer Daniel laying still unconscious, from the incident that occurred recently. In the hospital's 5'2 black cleaning lady in a blue gown, is also in the room cleaning up the place and making sure everything in the room is in check. He ended up being hooked up to numerous hospital equipment to keep him alive since he was beaten near death. As a digital clock hit 3:33 pm the officer starts to twitch and move, as he opens his eyes to the blinding hospital lights.
The cleaning lady sees his awakening and walks out to get the doctor, taking her precious time. This is the new regular for her, as she's been doing this for years now. she cares that much for the racist killer, to be worried or to move faster to the doctor. Several minutes passed before a 6'1 Indian doctor walked in holding a clipboard with the officer's medical results so far. By now Officer Daniel is fully awakened and paying attention to the doctor.
"Hello, my name is Dr. Amazia so, from what we've seen so far you suffered several fractured bones, broken wrist, ripped muscles, busted lip and nose, internal bleeding and external bleeding, and brain damage." Dr. Amazia said uncaringly, after finding out what happened he worried about the racist killer. "It's a miracle that you survived normally someone would've died the same day of the incident." Dr. Amazia said still in slight shock by the news himself. "But due to the damage your brain suffered, your body produced ten times as many bodily chemicals which are by far impossible. It did come with some side effects to your body appearance" Dr. Amazia stated smirking on the inside at the irony of it all.
"What do you mean my bodily appearance!" officer Daniel attempted to yell, but it came out in a raspy tone due to damage he sustained to his throat.
"Your body produces more melanin and hormones, changing your skin tone and the growth pace of your hair." Said the doctor handing him a small mirror out of his pocket while laughing on the inside.
As Officer Daniel looked in the mirror, he found that what the doctor said was true his appearance had changed. He became what he despised as a black person. As the Doctor walked out and left him in his state of stupor.
Soon several days passed, and officer Daniel was released from the hospital. He had recently found out, that within days he had lost his job and they would be a trial held for his assault on Saturn and not involuntary manslaughter. While all the students related to the assault on him were released. All he could do was cry, as he realized all he lost for what and how no real punishment was made against those people. He could still remember the sound of Saturn's laughter in the air, as he was beaten bloody and drove to the hospital.

Coleman Middle School
11:36 appeared on the computer screen of Saturn's, as he sat in his fourth-period class which was accelerated reading language arts, doing his work for his next period. While nobody had no memory of his death, all they could remember was he was assaulted by officer Daniel and that the students attacked officer Daniel terribly.
The principal's voice was heard on the announcements, all around the school as she said, "Teachers and Students, we're on full lockdown this is not a drill, there's an intruder in the building I repeat this is not a drill."
All Teachers and students were filled with panic, as they all started to run out of the c ignoring the principal's former statement. Everyone was running around panicking, as a "Blackman" and 17 of his other racist white friends from Alabama in average clothing started shooting every teacher and student they saw. The "Blackman" was former officer Daniel, he had gone mad and started killing everyone they saw it was a massacre. They thought by doing this would leave a mark, on how whites should be respected by blacks, trying to bring back the flame's white supremacy. The staff and students were killed with all forms of weapons.
Students and Staff ran everywhere to hide but known was safe they were all shot and killed. Students ran to the bathroom to hide but were shot and killed through the window. Students and staff hid in classrooms.
Students went to the gym; they were stabbed, and mutilated limbs were used to play "ball". Students went to the band room; they were hung and with instruments. Students went to the art room; they were gutted, and their blood was used "decorate" the art wall. Students went to the cafeteria; they were drowned and cut open and "cleaned". Students went to the computer lab; they were burned and electrocuted. Students went to the offices; They were locked out by other staff, and they were soon found and shot. Staff in the Offices were soon locked in and burned alive.
As this was all happening, Saturn walked down the school hallways that were littered with the dead bodies of teachers and students. He kept a plain emotionless face, as he whispered the words "all can be saved, all can be fixed, let death not come to this." Uttering words, so death herself doesn't come to take the staff and students to the Afterlife.
He turned the corner of the fifth hallway taking a full shot to the heart as he flew to the ground. Bleeding at a rapid pace he looked at Officer Daniel as he aimed one of his guns at Saturn and asked "Why?" in a desperate shallow but confused tone. "Should've just taken your black ass down and played some damn ball." He stated with a smile on his face before pulling the trigger. A loud bang echoed through the hall, and as Saturn took a bullet to the head, he was dead.
Everything was silent for a few minutes before "Hey Officer Daniel what are you doing here?" was asked in a familiar innocent voice. Officer Daniel slowly turned around hoping it wasn't the voice he thought it was. Yet there he was in the flesh Saturn stood a few feet behind him perfectly fine like nothing happened.
Officer Daniel Jumped back a few feet raising his gun at Saturn. "What the hell are you, I just killed your ass!!?" asked officer Daniel in an aggressive yet scared tone, not knowing who or what he was talking to.
"What are you talking about I'm Saturn are you okay Officer Daniel," Saturn said in a worried way, stepping over his dead body, and moving closer to officer Daniel. Knowing it was time for a lesson to be taught.
"Get back" yelled officer Daniel jumping back again before he pulled the trigger of his gun killing Saturn again and watching his body fall. He then looked around for a few seconds waiting, then letting out a sigh of relief thinking Saturn's dead.
"Wow are you okay officer Daniel, you could've shot me, you need to be more careful," said another Saturn appearing behind officer Daniel, moving past him to stand near his two dead bodies.
"AHHHH" yelled officer Daniel as his gun grew hot and fell to the floor red, as he fell to the floor as well, scared and desperate thinking he'll be killed any second by whatever Saturn was.
"Why," he asked in a desperate voice, accepting what was to come
"Why," Saturn said confused.
"After, the mess you've made all this death and carnage you ask WHYY," Saturn said yelling the last part, sending a shock wave through the hall cracking the surrounding walls and making the ceiling slowly cave in.
"You did all this for what just for a little ounce of respect. Or maybe it was for something else to feel special or superior. They never truly will learn. That no matter how different we are we're all still the same." Saturn started walking away, but his voice reverberated around the school.
"There's no race if you all came from the same place. There's no culture if it all was made together from and because of the people. There's no religion if all stems from gods or a creator that made it all. There's only identity and self-reflection. Which people like you abuse, to put people against each other and act superior over others when in the end your all equals." Stated Saturn in a dark tone. All the dead bodies were all around the school, and blood started going back into their bodies as they all rose from the dead.
"Ashes to ashes dust to dust I turn metal to rust" Saturn bellowed out as everyone dead breathe once again. All the shooters started to gasp as they all started to wither and decay as their ashes burned in black fire. All officer Daniel could do was watch in horror, at what he had just done.
"Let there be a balance" Saturn's voice echoed through the halls.

Coleman Middle School
As a clock ticked and tock soon as the minute hand landed at 12:05 pm, the 5th-period bell rang as all the 6th – 8th-grade students went to their fifth-period class. With no memory of anything no mass assault or school shooting, all was peace. Nobody got into any fights like usual, everybody got to class on time. Everybody felt huge guilt in their chest, and everybody was treating everybody nicer, and equal out of some bad feeling in the air. Something felt off, but no one could put their finger on it, so no one questioned it.
The Teachers and Staff received the unfortunate news that officer Daniel had quit his job as an officer and went on a huge fishing trip with 17 of his white friends, and they, unfortunately, all died due to a huge boat fire. Suspiciously though only their bodies were never found, racist flags and objects quoting racism were. Students found that the new student Saturn and his family had to, unfortunately, move again due to a job change, but if asked who Saturn was, no one could tell you. Other than that, nothing was different.
On the roof of the school building, we see Saturn sitting on the edge, swinging his legs back and forth, as a black and gray crow sits there right by his side.
"A lesson well taught don't you think Bella," Saturn says with a smile to the crow
"A lesson well taught indeed, we're all equal no matter what, and all should be treated equally," Bella said in a cheery voice.
"Couldn't have said better me my friend," Saturn said in a pleased tone before he leaned forward falling off the edge of the building and vanishing, as Bella flies off.
