School Bus

Chapter 4: Triple Action(Jack)

Jack waited for the bus  to drive on for a couple of minutes when his phone buzzed to receive a message from John. ''Ready?''. Smiling, he tapped on the phone screen and replied John's message, 'Born ready!''. He shoved the phone back into his blue jeans pocket. Time to get started. 

His eyes scouted the bus to pick his first victim. ''Ahah!, Pike the bully''. 

''sweet!'', he grinned. '' 'bout time someone thought him a lesson''. He unzipped his bag and ruffled through it. ''that's the one'' he said, stopping his search through his bag.  He brought out a  sandwich he liked to call ratatouille . A special sandwich with all the best recipe he could whip together the previous day. He marveled at his masterpiece. The contents between the thin slice of bread was the worst combination to make a chef commit suicide. It contained old rotten cheese he found underneath his bed, bad tuna fish, red paint for mustard and to top it all, his grandma's hair. Evil grin plastered across his face at his wonderful creation.Thunder clapped with his imagination,''I'm a frankenstein genius!'' 

Pike saw Jack bring out his sandwich. Another victim he thought to himself, breakfast is served. 

Peter saw pike get up from his seat, ''Psst, jack!, hide your sandwich, Pike is coming''. John replied him,''let him come''. Peter couldn't understand why Jack was smiling, he's supposed to be shitting in his pants. Pike was bad news to everyone.

Pike got up to Jack and snatched away his sandwich''Gimme! that''.  

''No, please, that is all I have for  lunch, please!'',Jack pretended to retaliate against him, giving Pike the benefit of the doubt. Pike was happy to see Jack beg. He shoved the whole sandwich into his mouth, gladly munching it  to make Jack cry. Then his facial expression changed immediately. His face turned soured green. Everything tasted out of place. His tongue mourned at the mercy of soured tuna fish, paint, ill-gotten cheese and was that strings he felt in his mouth?.  Pike was allergic to everything in the sandwich.

His mouth refused to open. The atomic bomb in his mouth kept it shut tight. He wavered in the moving bus. Tears gathered his eyes.He pointed to his mouth, begging anyone to help him get it out.  He rushed over to the driver. The driver was shocked when Pike stepped on the brakes, bringing the bus to a sudden screeching alt. He punched the button to open the door,''swoosh!''. The driver rushed out to meet pike. He got his hands around Pike's stomach, pressing it with force till Pike's mouth exploded with the contents spilling out. He breathed finally, tears streaming down his cheeks. He saw human hair in the vomit mix.

''What happened?'' the driver asked.

''I'm gonna kill that bastard'', came Pike's coughing voice. His face wore a deep frown. He rushed to the bus, but the door swooshed closed, Jack at the controls. He made a funny face at Pike, laughing at him. Jack saw the school was just meters away. He got into the drivers seat, turned on the ignition, released the clutch and set  bus in motion. laughter got wiped off all the kids face when they saw Jack take control of the bus.'' We're all gonna die!'' they all cried out, screaming, running up and down within the bus. 

Jack laughed at the chaos in the bus. ''Hahahaha!, I win!, it's in the bag baby!''
