Chapter 2

Jack was trembling. He was filled with anxiety. He went to report the case. But he could not talk well because of how anxious he was. Jack had known Frisk ever since they were kids. They used to play together. Jack admired Frisk ever since he was little. The memories of childhood came flooding back to Jack.

They met for the first time when they were in the first grade. Jack was being bullied by some of the 'cool' kids at their school. Jack always had low self-esteem and would never stand up for himself. The number of his bullies increased each day. Jack was really sad because of this. He wanted them to stop bullying him, but they just would not stop it.

On one fateful day, Frisk was playing in the playground with his friends. Jack was there too, playing only by himself. Jack was looking at the other kids playing with their friends. Jack was envious of others. He wished that he could have friends like that as well.

A few minutes later, Jack's biggest bully, named Astro came up to Jack, along with some others. When Jack noticed Astro, he was extremely scared. Because Astro and his friends beat Jack up multiple times.

"Well, well, well." Astro said. "What do we have here? What re you doing all alone, loser?"

Jack was speechless. He couldn't utter a single word because he was scared of Astro. Astro's friends laughed as Jack was speechless.

"What's the matter?" Astro asked as he laughed. "Cat got your tongue?"

Jack still could not utter a single word. And Astro and his friends continued laughing. Jack looked around. All the kids were gathering around them as Astro and his friends bullied Jack. Some were laughing, and some were just staring.

"Say something, loser." Astro said. "You are such a loser. That's why you don't have any friends."

Jack got enraged by this. He glared at Astro for a few moments. Astro noticed that Jack was angry.

"What are you looking at, you pathetic loser?" Astro said in an angry tone. "Don't look at me like that, you freaking loser!"

Astro punched across Jack's face and Jack fell down on the ground. Jack glared at Astro again. And then Astro and his friends started Kicking all over Jack. Jack was in pain.

"You are a loser! Trash! TRASH!" Astro and his friends yelled as they brutally kicked all over Jack.

"Stop!" A voice yelled out. "Stop this right now or else."

"Huh?" Astro and his friends stopped kicking Jack and looked at the direction where the voice came.

Jack looked that way as well. They all saw Frisk standing there. "Who is that?" Jack thought. None of them knew who Frisk really was.

"Who are you?" Astro asked in an annoyed voice.

"It doesn't matter who I am." Frisk replied confidently. "Just stop bullying the poor guy and leave him alone."
