Mike and the gang waved at us. We waved back. Just when Mike and the gang were about to run towards us, something happened. Mike fell down. I frowned because he tripped over someone's foot, and that someone had done this knowingly. It was the group of bullies, that bullied the gang quite often. I only remember the name of two of them. One was named James Dante and the other one was called Troy Walsh. My frown deepened when the group of three or four surrounded Mike and the gang.
I heard their words quite clearly. Troy joked about Dustin's teeth, while the other one joked about Mike's long hair. The third one, whose name I don't remember seemed to bully Will. Lucas spoke something when they bullied Mike and Dustin. Because only their bullying was extreme when compared to Will's. The third guy was just playing with Will, nothing quite serious. But the other two had taken their bullying to another level completely, by pushing Mike and Dustin. When Troy heard Lucas, he pushed him, which made Lucas fall on the floor.
By this time, I had already moved towards them. I grabbed Troy by his collar and slammed him directly on to Dante. This caused both of them to fall on the ground. I stretched my hand, to pull Lucas up. I glared at the third bully, who was frightened enough to shit his pants, with my glare. He stepped away from Will from fright. Troy angrily stood up from the ground and so did Dante. Both of them ran towards me, with their fists raised. I simply rolled my eyes and grabbed their incoming fists, and then kicked lightly on their feet. This made them to limp and cry out suddenly because of the pain, which was totally then overacting.
I hadn't even used a lot of force for them to cry out loud. I couldn't help but chuckle when I saw Troy tearing up. So, I taunted, "It seems like you want to cry, Troy. Come on, open up man. It's alright to cry. " Troy glared at me with his wet eyes and that's when Dante angrily replied for Troy, "At least he is just crying. Your life is the worst. You don't even know who your real parents are. I imagine what will happen to you, once your so called 'family' would get bored of you. "
When I heard those words, my vision narrowed as my eyes turned red, and my hands were made into fist. Mike had already guessed it and so had Becca. She had been with us for a long time to know about my life. They did try to talk sense into me, but blinded by rage, I punched Dante straight at his face. Dante blinked his eyes as if dazed, while he was bleeding. I didn't just stop there. I kept raining my fists on him, as my hands were covered in blood. I couldn't see anything except the faces of Dante and Troy. I turned towards Troy, when I was done with Dante. Dante had already lost consciousness, so I had to switch my target. Troy's eyes widened as he dragged himself back. Everyone could see my anger from my looks alone. Mike and Becca did try to stop me, but my glare stopped both of them.
Troy spoke in fear, "Joey.. I.. I didn't say anything. It was Dante alone. " Cracking my knuckles, I replied, "You didn't. But you never stopped him. Moreover this isn't just for that. You did try to bully my brother and my friends. " Troy quickly said, "I am.. " But before he could finish his words, my fist had already met his face. His face slammed on the floor. This caused the crowd of students to groan as if they felt Troy's pain.
I simply kept beating Troy again and again. Then I stopped. It was Mr. Clarke. He had heard several students talking as they rushed towards the hallway. He didn't hear everything, but he heard enough like, "Mike", "Joey", "bloody", "bullies",etc. He understood what was going on. But he had just thought that the bullies were beating up Mike. But when he reached at the place, where the fight was going on. He was surprised to find blood on the floor, it was like straight out of an action movie.
When he saw blood on hands of Joey, he thought the bullies had somehow injured his hands. But he soon realised that wasn't the case.
He quickly pulled away the angry Joey and asked few other students to pick the almost unconscious Troy and Dante. When Joey was separated from the two bullies, he yelled in anger, "Don't you dare to say what you said earlier again. And never bully my friends and family, I would beat you up every single time you do that. "
That was probably the stupidest mistake I had ever done, because of my words, I was suspended. The words of fight had not only reached Mr. Clarke, but it had also reached to our principal. Since I was the violent one, and also because Troy and Dante's family had some relation with the trustee of the school, I was the one to be punished. Thankfully Mr. Clarke protected me. Or else I might have been removed from the school forever. And that would be something my parents won't exactly like.
So I had to leave the class and return back home. Since there was nothing I could do here anyway. With a sigh, I picked up my backpack and walked out of the class. I waved at Mike and the gang, and then returned back to home. Thankfully there was no one at home, because Ted was at work, and Karen was... I don't know where, probably at the swimming pool. That was the only place I know that she visited frequently. Her friends usually meet up there.
Knowing the plot of the story, I might have stopped her. But thankfully the pool was an all female one. So no male lifeguards or male swimmers were allowed there. When I reached home, I simply walked into the basement and started doing my secret work that I have been doing for more than a month now.
It was one of my several plans that were interconnected to each other. I was making a computer. The computers of this time period isn't exactly suitable enough for me, a person from a technologically advanced planet. My plans were quite simple. I would first make a computer, then I would make an Artificial Intelligence, then I would make some money and the rest would be decided after the first three steps are done.
