'I can't believe the dean would put the school's name in public like that I mean the school is abnormal right' Theo thought
"Hey you standing next to my locker" A red haired kid said
"I would appreciate it if you would move away from it" Theo just stood there looking at the tall ripped kid infront of him but didn't pay attention to everything the guy just said "Hey are you listening to me ,I said move away from my locker" snapping back to reality Theo looked at the guy who just moved a metre close to him
" Uhm sorry I didn't know you own this locker too" Theo said as he kept his hands searching for his books and bag in the locker
"Hey newbie I don't know what you're trying to do but nobody talks to me like that you hear me" Red said now having a serious expression on his face Theo could swear he saw his eyes just went from dark red to glowing red but that didn't startle him "oh right just because your eyes can change from dim red to a blooming red you think you can kill me" Red got angry as Theo said those words and he suddenly banged on a locker and bent it on the inside ,and the bang startled and caught the attention of everyone around in the large school corridor "Boy I dare you to say those words again" Red whispered to Theo as his fist's grip got tight enough to even squash a whole apple "Look here boy I'm Red so you better give me some respect because you don't want me as your enemy" Theo spoke up as he was annoyed by this 'Red' guy
"Yeah I understand that because your face is red now but with all due respect 'Mr Red' I kind of wanna go to class now and I can't go to class while you're standing in my way" Red stood tall as Theo said this "you should look up to me kid instead of looking down on me" Red said as the crowds of kids around them started whispering to each other "hey Jane ain't that your locker? seems like Red bent it in" "Damn him now I'm going to have to carry my books around wherever I go in the school" " ha-ha yeah he did you good Jane" "who's that new kid though?" "ah he's nobody" " he seems to be confident of himself hey" "well his confidence won't get him anywhere now" "I think they got some beef don't you think" " get outta here Zack with your fake British accent" "the new kid's got balls" "woah that kid is gonna be on Red's bucket list" "yeah he really did it this time" "last time I saw Red like this was when he beat up a guy for telling him off" "the new kid's gonna be turned into a chimichanga" "nice one Blade" "hey Roberto tell your daddy to come and give us some free tacos to watch this thing" (laughs echoing in the corridor) "I hope your father gives us some free popcorn too" the kids giggled as they gazed at the two boys who were bickering at each other " You may be tall but I don't have to look up to you" Theo then took his books and bag out from the locker "Oh you trying to act big aren't ya? 'brat'" Red chuckled to himself lifting his gaze to look at the crowd behind him and then turned his gaze back to Theo who was still standing there unfazed of what was going to happen to him a bit later with his expression so neutral and serious but his hazel eyes said otherwise as they never carried violence with them "You should look at me like you're looking at your 'father' with respect and not with that stupid look on your face" Theo never even reacted to Red's words as he never even cared about his parents "I need to get to class" Red sblocked Theo's path as he even ignored the insults " who do you think you are?huh?" Red asked Theo as he got infuriated this time "Last time I checked I didn't come to this school to be popular I came here to learn but I guess people like you just stop people like me from getting smart" Theo tried to turn away from Red but Red had had it with Theo as he pushed him and Theo's books and bag fell on the floor causing a slight sound of something falling "You trying to say I'm stupid!?" Red shouted as he looked straight into Theo's eyes "You're the one that said that not me" Theo said sarcastically said acting like he never meant for his words getting that far "You think you're some kind of genius huh?" Red said walking towards Theo and tried to grasp at Theo's shirt collar but his fingers slipped actually his fingers his fingers didn't slip Theo just twisted his body to the right avoiding the hand "oh you won't get away from me that easy" Red said with a smile appearing on his face reaching out to Theo's neck while his other hand targeting the stomach but Theo never even moved allowing Red grab his neck but when Red was satisfied with his first step to beating Theo his punch was blocked and pushed away to hit nothing but air when he looked down Theo's left hand caught his wrist pushing Red's left hand away and Theo grabbed him by the shirt pushing him away, catching his balance Red managed to keep his feet on the ground and launched his fists at Theo fast and strong but before they could even reach its target they were stopped and Red's hands felt like they were burning and to his surprise Theo was the one who had stopped those fists " Red people like you don't listen so they gotta be disciplined" Theo headbutted Red's nose and Red's vision flickered mostly blurred and the gossiping started off again " what that's i-i-impossible" "seems like it's possible because it's happening right infront of us" "woah the kid got Red good" then before Red could lift up his head he felt a fist in his stomach and at the same time another fist flew in his face making him fall down on one knee,trying to get up and regain consciousness to see if this kid was really beating him a foot lifted off infront of his eyes and a kick was felt in his head as his head crashed into one of the kid's lower bunkers and collapsed but was still conscious,Theo bent down and picked up his bag and his books as he walked pass Red's conscious but unmoving body.
