Gerard drags his feet on the ground, running into someone.

"Hey watch it- oh sorry."

"No no its fine, that was my fault."

"What happened to your face?" Thr blonde asks.

"Oh I uh.. nothing."

"School bullies or somethin'?"

"Yeah." There's an awkward silence.

"I'm Bob. Bob Bryar."

"Gerard Way."

"Wanna point these assholes out to me?" Bob asks.

"Sure." Then Bert walks around the corner. "Him. Long haired hobo looking freakshow."

"Wow. Alright. See you later Gerard." The two part ways, Bert shoving Gerard by the shoulder.

Then Lindsey walks by.

'Damn it, why does she always walk by when this asshole picks on me?!'

She drops another piece of paper.

As soon as both Lindsey and Bert are gone, Gerard picks up the piece of paper.

'Fight back'

"Huh." This time Gerard puts the paper in his backpack.

                   -------------------------

"So today, we'll be watching a few videos-"

"Yes! Finally something entertaining!" Bert yells, jumping out of his seat.

"Oh please you can find entertainment elsewhere Mccrack-head.." Gerard says, rolling his eyes.

"You wanna go? Huh? You want more bruises on your skinny little body?"

"The only person who's gonna be bruised here is you." At that Bert jumps over everyone elses desks, then hitting Gerard in the face.

"Oh really?" He smirks, as Gerard tries to push him away.

"Alright boys thats enough!" The teacher yells, glaring at the two. "Mr. Mccracken, I would send you to the office but youre required to see these videos."

The teacher turns the lights off, playing the videos.

"Alright class. You're dismissed." She says, watching as all the kids grab their bags and practically murder each other to get into the hall.

"So you tried to pick a fight with Bert." Frank says, annoyed.

"Bert tried to pick a fight with me."

"Yeah sure. And from the looks of it he won, genius."

Then Bert pulls on Gerard's hood, causing the latter to fall.

"Asshole!" Bert and his gang just walk off, laughing.

"You really need to do something-" Ray starts, concerned.

"Yeah well.. I've tried that." Gerard says, sitting up.

"You have to put up even more of a fight."

"Yeah and if he does that the least that  will happen is he ends up in the hospital." Frank adds.

"Yeah but-"

"Listen. If there's one person who's gonna stand up for our damsel in distress its gonna be me."

"Frank I'm not a-"

"Shut it Zelda." Frank says, putting a finger to Gerard's face, who is getting quite annoyed by the current conversation.

"But Frank-" Ray starts.

"We need a plan."
