The Mind Trap.

Don't Touch Him.

"Good morning class my name is Miss
Ford."

My face shaped with disgust as I recognized what a crappy term this I going to be.

Jake sat right next to me, to my left as I'm sitting and leaning against the wall at the back of the class.

While I lean on the wall in disgust holding my head firmly with my right hand Jake recognizes that something was wrong.

"Hey dude what's wrong. You look like your studying something. What's the matter?"

"Bro, this David kid is going to kill me. He's going to chew me up, spit me out and chew me up again." I murmured, my voice fading as I ended.

At this point thinking about it, it was sounding horrifying, a lump quickly formed in the back of my throat.

"Dude, don't study David for now. I got some people that can help you." Jake smirked.

I sighed loudly trying to stop thinking bout it but wait what people was Jake talking about and why they didn't help him when he needed it.

"Kaleb is something wrong?" Miss Ford questioned with a worrying expression sketched on her face, hoping to get a reply from me but I nodded my head in denial and resumed writing the note she placed on the whiteboard.

*******

The bell rang for the end of the school day.

"Okay kids enjoy the rest of your evening, don't forget the Math, English and Geography homework for tomorrow!" Miss Ford shouted across the classroom before she left.

"Yo, dude wait up!" Jake yelled at me after I walked out of the classroom.

I stood outside the door in a empty spot waiting for him to catch up to me.

"Wow, you walk really really fast. So where you heading this evening?"

"Am, home I guess." I replied my face flushed with an emotionless expression but disgust and anger bubbled inside my stomach as I recollect the horrific memories. My mouth quickly started to get dry.

"Oh, okay well see you tomorrow." Jake murmured while waving and heading the other direction from me.

I waved back and dropped my head after he turned around placing my hood over it not wanting anyone to notice me.

Then I heard Jake screaming from behind me, I spun around on the heel of my trainers terrified to see what was happening to Jake.

David held the collar of his shirt and started to punch him directly in the face.

I couldn't bare to see anymore. I hooded my eyes over with anger and a fearless expression dropped onto my face, dropping my hood which was over my head.

I noticed something that could help me fight David to release Jake and ran to pick up a thick piece of wood that was lying on the ground next to the bin.

I grabbed it and held it tightly in my hands my face flushed with anger, the grip got tighter as I ran closer towards David, "Don't. Touch. Him!" I commanded loudly slamming the wood hard against his back.

His grip loosen from Jake falling to the ground in pain rolling on his back his eyes closed tightly as the pain shivers throughout his body.

Everyone around us stood and stare as silence quickly fell upon us.

This was our chance to escape.

Jake stood and stared in shock at what was occurring his face red with blood coming from his nose staining his hands as he had previously tried to prevent the blood from flowing into his mouth.

I grabbed a hold of him trying to break him out of the trance he was in pulling him towards my direction," Come on bro you want to get hurt!" I yelled at him tugging on his arm.

He turned around on the heel of his vans quickly running towards my direction breaking out from the trance he was in before we both ran through the crowd as they made a pathway for us to escape before running down the street.

Not knowing where to go I hold the thick piece of wood tightly in my left hand as we run down the street.

Both Jake and I were panting, we were gasping for air, a river of sweat running down our faces but knowing that David was behind us, it gave us the strength and speed starting to run even faster.

While running down the street we passed my house.

I watch it as we passed by my mind remembering the memories, the pain and the fear that I didn't have.

I started to slow down unknowingly as I passed the house.

"Hey! Hey! Hey!" Jake shouted his voice breaking, his soft hands slapped my face causing me to come out of the trance I was in.

"What the h..!" I shouted recognizing that David has almost caught up to us.

He's meters away but it's feeling like centimeters.

I quickly sped across the street
holding Jake's arm and pushing his weight in front of me so he wouldn't get hurt.

I looked back while running and saw how close David was to me, almost reaching me if he only stretch his hands.

I spun around on the heel of my trainers, holding the thick piece of wood firm in both of my hands swinging it.

"Ahhhhhh!" David bawled, his voice rumbled low as the piece of wood hit him firm and hard in his stomach causing him to drop to the ground clutching onto his stomach and bawled in pain, curling up into a ball.

His faced shaped with anger and pain. His eyes were painted with the sting of the pain coming from his stomach. His pale skin tone now turned into a red beast.

"Hear this, the next time you touch my friend or me, I won't hesitate to aim for your head next time!" I grumbled, my light blue eyes flared with anger as I warned him my waving the piece of wood in the air.

Jake stood and stared, amazed of what I had done.

He was shocked maybe terrified even.

I turned around leaving David lying on the sidewalk and quickly walked towards Jake a meter or two away from me, his mouth opened wide.

I let out a silent chuckle as I recognized how hilarious he was looking.

"What the fa...fa...faaa..ther? That was awesome dude." He chattered, jumped up and fist bumped the air in my victory.

"Yeah, thanks I didn't even know I had all that strength in me." I blurted praising myself for my bravery feeling confident.

"Come on. Let's go before he gets up. I'm not looking forward to be killed today." I babbled before we both scurried up the street.
