Jack, Charlotte, Crew, Hayden, Hannah, Avery, Lauren, and Drista all lined the paved sidewalk, trodding down the uneven path ahead. There backpacks flew up and down as they walked.

"Awwww, Jesus the son is burning!" Hayden complained, sulking over as sweat poured from his head.

"Do you ever shut up?" Asked Avery, tired of Hayden's bickering.

"Who asked?" Hayden replied, staring her down in a menacing stance.

"Do both of you ever shut up?" Said Hannah, drenched in sweat, soaking up the sun. She was Avery's younger sister. She would fight her if she felt like it, but the sun was too hot for her to throw hands.

"Shut up, fatass." Hayden snapped, shoving her back angrily.

"Angry much?" Spoke Drista, fed up with his constant talking and yapping.

"Guys, shut up!" Jack whispered, pointing towards an approaching Troy and Mason. Troy and Mason were the school bullies, always rampantly annoying any weaklings or nerds. There favorite target we're always them.

"Pfff, the loser squad is here." Troy trash-talked, he laughed with Mason, before Drista stepped up.

"Shut up, troll face." Angrily she tilted her head back in anger, throwing her long hair in there face.

"Don't make me cut that disastrous hair, and that long, smug smile on your face, mutt. Hey metal-mouth, where's my homework." He shoved past the group and towered over Crew, struggling to stand.

"Get off him, he's not your pet!" Jack defended, shoving him over.

"Shove me again, freak show. See what happens." He crouched and twisted his head in Jacks face.

"Well, actually I-" Crew was cut short by Drista, ready to punch him in the face.

"Just leave, Afro-hair." She said with a sour face and crossed arms.

"Oh really? I should leave-" He pushed up on her until she spoke while he through mid-sentence.

"Just leave!" She spoke, stepping back. Charlotte laid her head on Jacks shoulder.

"Alright fine, retard." He and Mason snickered as they exited the facility. "And take that mask of yours off." She cracked her knuckles, infuriated.

"Let's go. Now." She walked straight out of the wooded forest and eagerly into the squares building.

"I actually like your mask!" He said, being left behind by the migrating group.

"Let's leave!" She said, pulling him with them.
