The sky was a murky grey, rain droplets coming from the fluffy dark clouds. Michelle jones feet, squelching with every step she took on the moist grass.

The smell was intoxicating. Her brown hair tied neatly in a low bun, not bothering too much to tame the flyaways. This morning in particular had been a disaster.

Her anxiety has been on edge from the moment she woke up from the dreaded nightmare. She woke up quite frazzled, gripping her sheets tightly, attempting to slow her breaths.

Michelle sat on the dirty subway seat, ready to get to school and get this crappy day over with.

Thanks to her shriek in the morning, her father struck her cheek, making it red and bruised purple. Not only did she suffer from anxiety but also the daily abuse she received from her dad.

Thankfully she had one thing to look forward to, every single day.
One name. Peter. Peter Parker. His energy and positivity radiating from across the room illuminating her gloomy soul. He truly made her day.

Michelle's usual dull brown eyes brightened to a honey brown upon seeing the doe-eyed brunette. She was making her way over to him, a small smile on her delicate features when a loud bang came from a few feet away.

She peered from the corner, observing the scene from afar. She saw Eugene, or more know as Flash, slam the tall brown-eyed boy into the locker.

Peter visibly flinched from the sudden rough action, gritting his teeth. Peter could easily take on flash, so why hadn't he? Her eyes narrowed watching the scene.

Her usual calm, anxiety-filled demeanour quickly replaced with an aware angry one. 

She walked up to the boy, the second he punched Peter, probably due to the snarky retort he gave. God Peter. She walked up to Flash. Tapped his shoulder, smirking at him.

MJ was rather short for a 15-year-old, being 5"1 was not easy, especially being surrounded by girls and boys with long legs and tall torso's. She easily got trampled.

She yanked his collar down to her level as soon as he turned around. His nostrils flaring red. Before flash could say anything, she punched him square in the face. Hard.

Not half bad for someone who never stood up for herself.
Flash clothes his nose in pain, blood dripping from his bruised nose.

"Dont you ever mess with my friends. Or else I'll give you something even worse than a bloody nose. Clear?" For being a midget she looked intensely intimidating, glaring into his soul.

She wanted to give him a piece of her mind forever thinking about laying a hand on Peter. He looked at her warily, smirking nonetheless and nodded cautiously, sending a glare to Peter.

Unknown to her, principal Morita witnessed the whole thing. Down from the shoving to the threatening punch.

"Parker, Thompson, and Jones, come to my office immediately." He didn't look that angry after witnessing an almost fight. Odd.
