CHAPTER 5

The girls chat a little about me like I'm not there and Kori relays what happened last night which gets Mathilda all sorts of hot and groping me as we wait for others to show up. Finally Jun, Lilly and Natsuko arrive walking up and shortly after them Liz and Katy pull up in the family car. Katy is all decked out like a bad school girl with her pleated skirt and tied on white shirt, her own leather jacket with hood option on. Liz tosses my bag at me angrily and heads off to find her boyfriend while Katy stares at me like I just killed a puppy.

"Are you running away," Katy finally asks timidly.

"Oh girl do I have some work to do on you," I tell Katy, pulling her almost on top of me and onto the hood of Matty's car.

I grip the hair on the back of Katy's head and Jam my tongue in her mouth hard which gets her own tongue slamming back into my mouth in reply. We wrestle for a few moments when Katy pushes off me and we get off Mathilda's hood before we cause too much of a scene.

"Okay, I'm feeling really left out here," Natsuko says sheepishly.

"Maybe later Natty, I girls I need to borrow Jun and we need to get to class before I actually get into some real trouble today," I say to the girls as I let them get ahead of us.

"You need me for something big," Jun asks as I admire the line of girl asses in front of us.

"Yeah, big guy from yesterday? I want his name, homeroom and when and where he eats lunch and I want it by the time I'm done with the second period," I order Jun like I'm in the military.

"I'll get it," Jun says, pausing," Are we going to make an example out of him or something?"

"Of course we are, the best kind of example," I tell him smiling as I head to my first class.

I got a text on my phone at the end of the second period from June. Devin Gibson, sophomore transfer from

some high school in Farmville USA. He's got a second lunch with us but he eats a home lunch and is usually out by one of the ball fields with bleachers. As for his homeroom I don't recognize the teacher but Jun says she's a decent one.

I roll into the third period and park my ass right on top of Natsuko's desk before the class starts which gets her attention really fast.

"Okay I'm guessing you want me to do something boss," Natsuko says smiling up at me.

"Yes, my sexy little secretary. I need you to go out before lunch and find that big guy from the video yesterday and bring him to the table today," I tell her watching her get a confused look on her face.

"Are you sure, he's kinda big and I'm not gonna be able to move him," Natsuko says like I'm asking her to pick up a piano.

"Girl, just get him," I reply smiling as I take my seat.

We get out of the third period and I head quickly into the cafeteria and grab my food before the rest of the crew gets in and by the time they're all seated I'm finishing my milk. Nobody really says anything about my quick eating and I get Kori on one side of me and Katy on the other when I see Natsuko leading the mountain by the hand. Everyone at the table watches in a mild shock as she sits him down. I sit with my hood up keeping my face obscured from the big boy across from me; he's nervous and very scared as he takes out his paper bag lunch.

"Don't eat that," I tell him, causing the whole table to get quiet.

"But it's my lunch," Devin says nervously.

I back my chair up and walk slowly around the table; I hold my hand out to Jun who hands me his cell phone. It takes a second to pull up the video and show him running across campus. His face gets red with embarrassment and I toss the phone back to Jun.

"Why are you scared," I ask him coldly.

"Cause you're gonna make fun of me," Devin says, choking up.

"Only if you let me," I reply, shoving Devin as he sits in his chair.

I can hear Kori saying something but Katy stops her from getting involved as I push Devin again. He's back into a corner metaphorically with everyone watching and now some more people in the lunchroom starting to pay attention. Devin tries to stand up but I shove him back into his chair.

"What are you gonna do kid," I ask him coldly," You got nowhere to go, nowhere to hide, I'm gonna embarrass you in front of everyone here and you can't stop me on my worst day. Stand up."

I watch as Devin tries to stand up before I shove him back into his chair. Kori is whispering to Katy and the two of them get quiet as I shoot them a glare before turning back to Devin who has tears running down his face.

"You want out, you gotta go through me," I tell him, getting in his face," you can't because you're just a scared little ball of fat and shi…"

Devin cuts me off by grabbing my throat with both hands and lifts me up before slamming me down onto an adjoining table. Kids clear out a space and I don't fight him as he tries to squeeze the air out of me on the table, Kori and Katy are yelling and I wave off Jun who really wants to help. I finally made eye contact with Devin and in his rage I let him see me smiling at him. I watch his eyes go wide with the shock of what he's actually doing. I feel his body start shaking as he lets go of my neck and backs off slowly, I get up off the table and grab him by the arm I lead him out of the cafeteria. We get to one of the fields when he stops and starts to break down.

"Stand up Devin," I tell him watching the rest of the crew follow us up.

"I can't, I nearly killed you, I'm gonna get into so much trouble," Devin babbles on his knees.

I calmly tilt his head up and give him a light slap shocking the shit out of him. Kori is a little freaked out but Jun and Katy look like they understand what I'm doing while Natsuko and Lily are confused as all hell.

"I've been left for dead Devin, still here," I tell him holding my arms out," You are dead, you wanna stay dead or do you want to live for once in your life? Look at the people around you; we're all outcasts, pariahs and the unwanted. We didn't fit in cause they said we didn't and now where we go they move out of our way, when I do something nobody says shit cause they worry about what I'LL do when I find out. STAND UP!"
