The Dangerous Six

Hi my name is Dead Dead Toast!

"Stay away from them. Don't even look their way. Just hold it in. Just take deep breaths, don't get mad." I heard myself repeating in my head over and over as I saw them skip everyone in the lunch line.

     I tried to stay calm, but when I see things like this - especially done by them-it's hard not to get mad. I watched as each of them got their lunch, just because they can, just because they are them. Instead of being nice, they had to prove their stupid authority by ruling the school in fear because once again-they are them.

     I rolled my eyes trying my best to keep myself from fuming with anger.

     Then just when I thought their reign of terror was over, one of them decided to take the last of the cookies, which is basically the only thing good here.

     I don't give a fuck if I'm new or not; they can not get away with this.

     "That's it! I have had enough!" I yelled.

     Everyone turned around looking at me as if I was insane or as if I had nine heads instead of one.

     "Earth to Penny shut up! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!" my conscience was telling me, trying to caution me to shut the heck up before I got crushed.

     I quickly scanned their faces. I puffed out my chest and pushed past all of the students in line. I know I am going to regret this, but I want my cookies!

     "Hey the great audacious ones! I got a bone to pick with you pricks! Incase you did not notice, there is a line, and you all just seemed to skip and cross two: the lunch line and mine!"

     Before I knew it, I was in front of a large, muscular chest covered by a black and grey shirt. I pushed my first finger into the chest, poking it, and keeping it there. I looked up at all of the their serious, shocked, and curious faces.

     "What did you call us?" One of them asked me in an almost deadly tone-scratch that-it was not almost, it was deadly.

     My eyes widened as I suddenly realized what I just did. I, Penny Churchwall, just stood up to them! Them being the "Dangerous Six", my new high school's notorious bad boys. They're the type of boys that are known for being violent; the type that get away with anything, anytime and don't give two shits about the consequences; the types who get arrested. I also heard that they were gang affiliated.

     I gave a nervous giggle and began to back away. "You know what? forget what I said. Have a nice day!" With that, I ran my ass out of that cafe faster than you can say hi.

     I raced down the hallway, went straight to the girls bathroom, and hid in a stall. I began to pace back in forth and hit my head on the wall. My friends back home were right: I am crazy! It's as if I have two different people in me: the shy, sweet nerd and the nerdy spitfire with a temper.

     "Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" I repeated over and over again, trying to find a way to survive. Stupid me!

     Maybe I can move to Canada, or something, and own a small shop? Yeah that's it-get an awesome fake ID and pretend I'm, like, in my twenties or something.

     I was deep in my escape plan when the door to my stall swung open. Luckily, I wasn't standing too close, so I didn't get hit that hard by the door. I rubbed my hip bone and looked up.

      A blonde girl wearing a slutty outfit stood before me. I looked at her in fear.

     "Maybe the D6 (Dangerous Six) ordered a female bounty hunter to get me because they didn't want to hit a girl?"

     I backed into the corner trying to figure a way to escape.

     "You are such and idiot. You really are a stupid bitch! How do you stand up to people like that-I have to admit though, you have balls. Haha good luck staying alive new girl. You're fucking crazy to the 'z'," she said.

     "I didn't-well, I meant to say that, but not out loud! I swear I have a disorder or something; I couldn't control it! He stole my cookies!" I yelled defensively. She stared at me as if I was crazy.

     "Something tells me I am going to be getting that look often today."

     The blonde girl shook her head and laughed.

     "My name is Paige, and you are?" She asked.

     "And I am Dead. Dead Toast." I said.
