School crowd

The bus had soon pulled into the driveway leading to the school, and everybody had poured off the bus. The brothers were somewhere in the crowd, taking. Moment to get back to each other. The three younger brothers all seemed to be on high alert, looking around the crowd of students and still on edge from what the older kid had told them.
"Oh come on guys- you can't seriously believe what that guy said!" America stated, flipping around to face them.
"I dunno...it did seem rather violent, even for a bear" Canada said.
"It was probably a mountain lion or something then! Your being a wuss!" Yelled America.
"Hey- I am not!" Canada argued.
"Nada come on! Look at Aussie! He's the youngest out of all of us and he ain't scared!" America said, pointing to his brother.
"Huh- what? oh...oh no I'm scared, I'm just wondering what that's all about" Australia responded, pointing to a crowd of students that had gathered around something.

America glanced over his shoulder, squinting at the crowd before trotting over, followed by the rest of them. He pushed through the crowd, demanding to see what everyone was so fascinated by before freezing in his tracks once he saw. Down in the middle of the gathering, the grass had become black with a dark red dent in the middle, almost like a puddle of blood. Except it wasn't a liquid at all. Almost like a scab in the earth.
Soon enough, a teacher had come over, pushing through the crowd of students, assuming it was a fight.
'Alright alright! Break it up! There's nothing to see h-...ere..'
The teacher looked at the scab on the ground, staring at it before proceeding to chase the rest of the kids away, calling up for the grounds keeper to check whatever it was out. The brothers had rushed up to each other, America slightly more scared than he was two minutes ago.

"What the hell was that- some kind of fungus?" Canada asked.
"Not everything is a fungus, nada!" America replied.
"You think that was the demon the guy was talking about?" Australia asked.
"No, they said the demon had a face. Look it's probably some underground tunnel that a kid left a torch in. or like n underground volcano" America suggested.
"A VOLCANO!?" Canada yelled.
"SHUT IT! You'll freak everyone out!" America said.

As the two were talking, Australia had noticed that NZ wasn't with them. He started frantically looking around before spotting him over near some taller kids. The taller students were flicking at him and shoving their face in his, trying to get a reaction out of the poor kid before one of them had fully pushed him over, making him land in a wet patch in the dirt.
"Hey!" Australia yelled, running over and shoving one of the taller kids.
"Oh shit-" America said, rushing over to them.
"Leave em alone! he didn't do shit to you!" Australia stated.
'Or what!? you gonna bite us? set your little animal friends on us?' The taller student said, bending over and flicking at Australia's face.
"I'll...I'll...I'll knock your head in!" Australia said.
'Ha! go on, try it!' The student said, standing up straight.
Australia started trying to reach them, jumping and waving his fists at their head, only managing to knock at their jaw.
'Damn that really hurt that time. come back in a few years when you learn to use a step ladder, pipsqueak!' The student said.

Australia had looked over at NZ, seeing him getting dirt kicked on his face, trying to wipe it off before getting more kicked on him. Australia had glared at the student, lifting his leg up as high back as possible before swinging it forward and kicking him right in the crotch, causing them to yell out before falling to the ground.

America had quickly ran over, grabbing Australia and New Zealand and rushing inside where the staff would give them protection from any revenge seeking bullies.
