Bullying is wrong so don't do it. You may think it's funny and fun to see someone helpless and alone while you hurt them but imagine if you were being bullied. Imagine if you were being hurt and couldn't fight back. Imagine if you were being bullied. Don't bully is the theme for this! So don't do it!

Denis POV

It was my first day at this new school. I remembered what happened at my old school and why we moved. I would make sure it didn't happen again.

I walked to the front office and went to my assigned locker. It was smaller but it would do. Then I walked to my home room and looked around. It was like a mad scientist was here. My first class was chemistry and I was partners with a dude in glasses and nerdy purple hair.

He put out his hand for me to shake. "Hi my name is Alex. You must be Denis, the new student. Don't worry you will fit in here just fine. The teachers name is Mrs. Delmas and she locks the door as soon as the bell rings so if your late you get your punishment," he says and points toward two boys one in a green sweater and one in an orange hoodie." That is Sub in the green and Elijah in the orange but we like to call him Sketch," he points towards a kid a little shorter than he was and a dude with cool hair. "That is Fletch with the crazy hair and light up shoes and that is Braden the short dude but we like to call him Corl. We all sit together at lunch want to join us?" He asks. I look at him and think about it.

"Sure," I say. It was time to start doing what I did best. I made sure Alex wasn't looking and wrote a note and threw it at a kid. I turned back to my desk and started to write a few more. I threw them and made sure Alex wasn't looking. I grabbed my gum and chewed some up. Two kids got up to put their papers in the box while I put the gum on their seats. I watched out of the corner of my eye as one of them sat down. He looked disgusted but didn't say anything but the other one took one look at his seat and yelled out "WHO PUT GUM ON MY CHAIR?!?!"

Alex turned around and got a napkin got it wet and went over to hers eat and picked it off best he could. He went grabbed another one and put it over and said "there you go," she smiled and thanked him. Just as he was leaving though he noticed the other kid and knelt beside him. The whispered to each other.

"Hi Denis," I hear someone say. I look and see it's the short kid. "Hi," I say. "What are you doing after school?" He asked. When I walked in I remembered the basketball court. "I think I'm going to the basketball court," I replied. "Oh," he said sounding a little sad by my response. He looked up at at me with a smile. "You must be pretty good at it," he says. "Yeah, I was champion at my school and I never lost," I lied. I loved to boast and lie. It was my speciality.

I look over and see Alex walking the kid with the chair on his bottom to the teacher. They said somethings and called on a kid in the front. He came up and walked the kid out of the room. Alex came back to our desk and said "I wonder why someone would do something so mean. Did you see who did it?" He looked into my eyes and I looked back. His eyes made me want to tell the truth. I looked at the books on the desk and said "No, I didn't," he looked at me and smiled.
"Ok," was all he said before the bell rang.

After a boring 5 hours of chemistry, science, math, and social studies it was finally time for lunch. We sat down at the table on the far side of the school closest to the hallway. I thought about why Alex was so nice and why he did those things without someone saying he had to. Well it was time to change that. He sat down next to me and looked over at the line.
"Looks like they are all going to be awhile," he said and started to eat. This was my chance.

I grabbed him by the arm and lead him into the boys bathroom where no one would see he looked confused so I punched him in the face and he started to cry. He sounded so helpless and sad. That just gave me more power against him. I knocked him down and threw him into the sink. His food he had been chewing flew out of his mouth and onto me. He was curled into a ball and whispering something. I looked at him in the eye and said
"Don't tell anyone or else I'll have to deal with you again later," I say as he closes his eyes and hugs his legs. "Get up," I say and and he scrambles to his feet. I brush the food off my shirt and look at him. His face was red and blotchy from crying.
"Clean yourself up and come back to the table or else," I say and leave.

As I get back to eating food I see Sketch, Sub, and Corl coming for the table. As they sit down the look at the seat next to mine and all ask in unison.
"Where is Alex!?" I look at them and shrug. We all eat and when there is 5 minutes left of lunch Alex comes and finishes up his food with 1minute to spare. Once he comes back from throwing his scrapes away everyone starts to ask questions.

"Where were you Alex?" Sub asks.
"Where did you go?" Corl asks.
"How did you eat so fast?!?!?!?!" Sketch says. We all look at him and laugh, even Alex.
"What? I want to know!" He says thinking. I look at Alex and he looks at me with a cold dead stare, not like the one we had when we first met.

Ring Ring Ring!

"Time to go," Sketch said. I followed them all to what looked like a music room. We sang but I could hear a voice like an Angels, so sweet and kind, loving and hopeful. I looked and saw Alex there singing with happiness unlike me who was singing just to sing. Soon we were doing some rhythm hand claps. The teacher was very strict and if didn't do what she asked you to she would send you o the principals office. I decided to get someone in trouble. It was fun to do this because seeing other people suffer help me with my own life.
I looked at the row of kids in front of me. I see Corl and Sketch but I can't hit them otherwise they will find me out. I grabbed the piece of paper I had in pocket from chemistry and started to curl it into a ball. I crunched it on the same beat we were clapping so it didn't make much noise. Soon I had it in a perfect ball and hid it beside me.
I was sitting on the last set on my row and the kid next to me was asleep. I slowly started to aim from under my seat and threw. The kid I hit was girl. She looked pretty and also nice. But I could see something about her that wasn't so nice. The girl's voice was like the sound of lightning as she screamed
"WHO HIT ME?!??!" The teacher looked at her and frowned.
"Amber," (idea from starpalsfan btw go check out her books) "What do I do about talking in class?" The teacher said sternly. Amber looked sad but then happy as the bell rang.

Everyone rushed out and I followed then to a gym like area. I walked in and saw a race track and basketball hoops down. I didn't like races but I did like basketball.
"Ok class," a mans voice says. I look and see the man that is meaty and tall.
"Today is race day and when we're done we'll play some b-ball. Find a partner and choose one person to go first. Alex Caraline come to the bench." I looked at them as they sat down. I was confused as to why they didn't have to do it. Sub comes to me and tells me that they both had asthma. I found out one of Alex's weaknesses. Soon we were done but out of breath. I had gotten Sub and Sketch's phone numbers in the process. After gym we had recess. I followed everyone out. I see Alex walking to a corner trying to get away from me. I walk straight to him and he curls into a ball saying
"please don't hurt me" over and over again. I smile and make sure no one is looking and luckily everyone is playing on the huge play set and basketball ball or football. I look back at him.
"Alex, you're going to meet me here at this spot tonight. Or else." I say. I wanted him to feel how I felt. I walked away to play b-ball while Alex laid their in a ball until the bell rang. I don't know what came over me but I felt sorry for him.

But that won't stop me.

Thank you for reading! Have an amazing fantastic day and hope you enjoyed! Bye!
