MOULD

Having secured a way to move his product Daniel felt like he had made progress. It was one of the first significant things that he had done since his arrival on this world.

But in his happiness it seemed fate had some other plans for him . It seemed that when he was engrossed in his close up discussion with Janet, someone, a guy from from SS 2 saw them and missunderstood the situation.

Due to their close proximity and their demeanor with each other it has seemed like Daniel and Janet were engaged in some romantic behavior or something like that and the guy did not like it one bit.

That evening while Daniel was returning from school to the hostel he was accosted by the roadside, the boy ( Frank ) claimed that Daniel disrespected him by talking to a senior girl that was above his level.

Daniel replied claiming that it wasn't like that but with no way of really telling them his arrangements with Janet it seemed like they were going to interpret it in whatever way they felt like .

While Daniel was still trying to come up with an explanation Frank pulled off his belt and lashed at Daniel. The belt hit him across the back and even the tip of the belt brushed against his face causing a welt to appear.

Frank continued lashing out on Daniel and the only thing Daniel could do at that moment was to protect himself and take the beating.

For some reason it was not the belt that hurt Daniel, it was the fact that his reputation they had not even started to grow was being tarnished by a literal child no older than sixteen. An idiot child who had no self control, beating another person because of a girl, a girl that perhaps didn't even know his name.

This was not the first time that Daniel was bullied in this school but it was the first time he was actively paying it any attention. He had to nip this in the bud and send a message.

The time is 9 pm Daniel had rushed out of the the night prep early and left for the hostel. He changed out of his clothes and wore nothing more than an undershirt and his trousers. He lied in wait for Frank to come back from prep. He waited for a while until Frank came back tired , so tired that he didn't notice that someone was watching him.

Daniel waited until Frank unlocked his door then he rushed forward and put him in a rear chokehold. Frank couldn't speak or scream , he was gasping for air and in all his futile struggle he was forced into the room.

After about thirty seconds to a minute Frank passed out and Daniel proceeded to lock the door and tie Frank's hand behind his back with a belt.

Daniel then tapped Frank on the face causing him to wake up. He was drowsy at first but when he realized the situation that he was in he became visibly afraid.

"What are you doing, don't you know that I am your senior" Frank shouted.

Daniel ignored him and proceeded to surgically beat Frank up. It was surgical because Frank was beaten in a way that was visible but yet couldn't cause permanent damage.

Daniel spent about six hours beating, resting and beating Frank. He really went to town on Frank . It was not the beating that caused the most damage, it was the sleep deprivation. Daniel just conjured something out of a CIA interrogation handbook.

One might ask why Daniel went to such level on Frank, well the answer was so that Frank could never have the notion of retaliation and so that anyone who finds out what he had done would rethink on coming to mess with him.

It was 3 AM when Daniel decided to release Frank from his bondage he then proceeded to tell Frank to feel free to tell anyone that asked that it was him that did it .

Daniel then left Frank sprawled on the ground and went for his early morning run , he was starting his workout early today.

Due to his tiredness Daniel couldn't make it for morning breakfast, the first time he had chosen not to be punctual. But he made it to the assembly grounds.

As he was walking towards his class line he noticed some people glancing or glaring at him , some were murmuring. He already knew what it was about but he acted clueless . When he got to his class line he was just hearing chaotic whispers, it seemed like his actions had caused more stir than he had hoped to.

The assembly went off without a hitch, Daniel didn't fear that the school authorities would know about the situation except if Frank wanted to be known as the guy who snitched on a junior.

For some unknown reason the there was no teachers coming in class so Daniel was catching up with this worlds literature . Then a huge guy from SS 1 F ( tech ) came into the class and walked towards Daniel his name was Victor but people called him Daddy V

"Did you really do it ?" Daddy v asked

Daniel paused for a while , put down his book with care and then looked at the person talking to him before answering

" If it is what I'm thinking about then yes " Daniel replied

"You know that they are going to come after you right?"

Daniel took a deep breath before replying " so what are you going to do about it"

And Daddy V was silent but before he could reply a teacher entered the class so he left.

During the class Daniels mind wandered, if he was going to go against the unwritten rule in the school he couldn't do it alone, he needed people that he could fall back on.
