"It's time for a bit of phys-Ed!" The trunchbull boomed as she barged into the class. "Follow all of my movements!"

She started doing burpees. I followed, trying to keep the pace. She then changed to jumping jacks, and then a multitude of other exercises.

"Okay, DOUBLE TIME!" The trunchbull insisted.

I didn't know if I could do anymore, but I attempted to follow her lead once more. We did every exercise again, but in double time. She then forced all of us into a plank.

"Can I get out yet?" Bruce asked.

"Not unless you would like a stay at the chokey!"

Alice was the first to pass out on the floor. My arms were getting awfully tired, and I could barely breathe. Bruce collapsed, but stayed conscious. The trunchbull approached me and placed her foot on my back. She pressed on me harder and harder. I could no longer breathe. I collapsed as well, and the last thing I heard was Matilda shouting, "Let go of him you big fat bully!"

"Amanda, sweetheart," Miss Honey whispered gently.

I woke up on the ground. A puddle of sweat surrounded me.

"Why don't you go home," Miss Honey guided me towards the door.

I broke down in tears.

"What's wrong, Amanda?" Miss honey crouched down to my level.

"I hate this stupid school and that stupid trunchbull!"

"I know, but it's okay. Just... go home now,"

"Okay," I wiped my last tear.

I got in the bus and sat alone. I didn't know what to do. I was tired of the trunchbull, but she was terrifying! There was no way I could stand up to her. Or could I?
