If I can cut off my time by 50 seconds I should be able to make it to Adavanced Lit class proximity by 7:15. If my theory is correct, there should be absolutely no chance of getting captured by-

"Ah! Jillian!" A mocking voice said from behind me before a arm came around my throat.

My theory just went out the school window and smashed to the concrete three stories down.

"My-my name is Dylan! With two syllables! Tha-That nickname isn't even clev-" The arm tighten it's grip, causing me to stop midway through my explanation.

"Oh, shut up geek. I just came to say hi and catch up." Josh laughed.

You mean threaten and catch me.

"W-well you said hi! You can let go now..." I said while gasping for air, he saw my struggle and loosened his massive arm a little. Probably not wanting a murder case to ruin his scollership in football.

"Aw, but don't you want to say hi to the others?" He whined, but the smile on his face said another thing.

"No. No I'm fine. But send my regards for me- Oh! Would you look at the time! In about," I squinted at the watch attached to his wrist. "5 minutes and 13 seconds everyone is going to be released to go to their classes! It was nice 'catching up' but I think I should go-"

"Nick! Brad! Guess who I found roaming the halls all by himself!" Josh shouted happily.

Oh no.

Two figures suddenly stopped from the end of the hallway and tuned to us. They both seemed confused at first before their eye's zeroed in on me.

"Oh, you caught Triggy?" Brad yelled. He smiled mischievously and eldowed Nick in the ribs before walking again.

In our direction.

"Now now, I k-know we can come up with a com-compromise fellas." I stuttered while trying to get Josh's arm release me. It's no use, I think the guy takes steroids.

"What are you so afraid of?" Nick questioned as he came closer.

"I - I'm not afraid. "

Lie. Lie. Lie.

"Yeah, Pip Squeak is not scared of us. Right?" Josh asked, his arm starting to constrict my throat again. By his tone it was ether yes or black eye.

"Oh, yeah! You guys are one of a kind I'll tell you... Strong, and Big, and VERY illiterate." I mumbled the last part.

"Illiterate? Don't you mean intelligent?" Brad chuckled and the three broke into fits of laughter.

"And people call you smart!" Nick mocked.

You. Have. Got. To. Be. Kidding. Me.

"I mean uh, intelligent. Yeah! It's intelligent, sorry for miss pronouncing it...."

"Aye, since it's the beginning of the school year and all, we'll let you off easy this time. " Josh decided. He looked at both his friends and they nodded in approval.

"Really? That easy? Well, Thanks-"

"IT'S SWIRLY TIME!!" They all cheered, grabbing my arms and legs as I struggled to get free.

"Wait! No! Not a swirly! IM BEGGING YOU!" I shouted before they dragged me into the nearest boy's bathroom.
