Sean's POV

Well fuck. The last place Sean wanted to end up was Tobias' office. He hated the creep, starving almost everyone in the school. Sean hated Tobias almost as much as Tobias hated him.

"What happened?" Tobias asked in a firm voice.

Sean was ready to tell him everything. All the shit he had been put through in the last few hours. All the hurt, tensity, regret, doubt and hunger he had been through. Sean bit his tongue. Then silently asked himself why. Why would he help Tobias? If it meant he gets killed, so be it. But Sean wasn't going to idly stand by while people were starving.

"The storm happened" he finally responded with a hint of sarcasm.

Tobias sharpened his view, peering at Sean suspiciously. But Sean had an excellent poker face.

"The rain is heavy, I got hit a few times. Managed to hide in an apartment. There was no food in there" Sean lied, manipulating Tobias. Tobias looked like he believed him.

"Oh, that's fine. People are starving here Sean! Starving!"

"Maybe if you can't handle starving kids, you shouldn't be in charge, huh?" Sean growled, getting up on the table. Tobias would have easily beat Sean, but Sean didn't back down. Afraid? Yes. About to faint? Precisely. But he didn't back down.

"Get out of my office, Sean. Before you get hurt." Tobias told him.

"Threaten me all you want, fuckboy! You couldn't take care of this school if no one was in it!" Sean responded forcefully.

Tobias threw a punch, nailing Sean right in the jaw. That was going to bruise, as he had already hit his jaw when going unconscious. Sean straightened himself and thrusted his fist at the jock's face, but Tobias caught his fist. Tobias wasn't a fighter, but he was better than Sean by far. Sean swept his foot under Tobias' feet, knocking him to the ground. Sean thrashed at Tobias, who was now covering his head and chest.

Hell, reinforcements could be coming any minute now, but Sean kept going at it. Tobias groaned after every hit he took. Sean wasn't a murderer though. He showed mercy. He grabbed the shiny bronze keys from the desk and opened the door to the principal's office. Closing it behind him, he locked it with the keys. Sean slipped the keys in his pocket, and casually walked away, like nothing had happened. There was no one around to see the fight that just went down, so Sean just kept walking.

Penny's POV

Time. Time for them to take back the school. Penny followed Carmen and Carrie towards the library, where they could access the loud speaker. Penny would have given anything for Gumball to be with her, comforting. As far as she knew, he was getting the attention of every guard in the school. So in that case, Penny had the easier job.

They slipped past the doorway expecting the worst. The library seemed how they left it. Large bookshelves littering the floor, dry blood from Darwin's leg. The usual. Carmen walked over to the small connecting office from the library. Penny watched as she brought out the loudspeaker from the desk. It was their time.

Gumball's POV

Suicide. Yay! He ran up to the cafeteria, probably the most open space, with Darwin and Masami trailing behind. They passed the lot of classrooms on the way. They also passed the occasional classmate, who either stared in awe, or gave chase. Eventually they had quite the followers. Gumball peeked back for a moment to see Jamie, Tina, Anton, Joe, and a few faces he didn't recognize. No Tobias.
