I was on my way to the next class when a girl named Akane stopped me, she was taller than me, her blond hair bounced as she walked towards me, her deep blue orbs were locked on my dark brown ones sending shivers down my spine. She was one of the girls that would always pick on me. Two of her friends stood beside her smiling.
"Hey Pepper" she said to me as she smiled darkly
"Hi" I said shyly
"We're friends right?" she said as her two friends started giggling at the thought of us being friends
"I... I guess" I stuttered
"Well you see since we are friends I'm going to need you to do me a favor"
"I'm kinda in a hurry to get to class" I said quickly knowing this won't end well
"Are you saying no to me?"
Shit I just made things worse, I'm definitely getting a beating I thought to myself
"No its just-" she cut me off before I could finish
"Good, because I'm going to need some cash" She smiled darkly and her friends giggled again
"I don't have any money"
"Well then you won't mind me taking a look in your bag?"
I took a step back holding my bag tighter because I knew she would take everything I had. She started walking closer to me as she reached for something in her pocket, she grabbed me by the collar and pushed me against the wall. She lifted me to the point where I was on my tippy toes.
"Where is the money Pepper?!" She yelled and I turned my head at the sudden increase of tone.
"I don't know what you are talking about" I said hoping she would leave me alone
I turned back to face her, only to find she had pulled out a knife from her pocket and held it against my neck, I froze not sure what to do. Then I noticed she left her self open so I was able to knee her in the stomach. She fell to the floor and cried out in pain but she was still holding the knife.
I tried to run but she grabbed me by the leg and pulled me to the ground, I then tried to crawl away but she climbed on top of me pinning me down. I punched her hard in the face but she didn't flinch and she started to laugh, then she punched me twice in the stomach, I could feel my insides turn like they were ripped apart and left to float freely in my body. I tried to gasp for air but as I did I coughed up blood. She placed the knife on my neck and I felt the cold blade slowly sink into my skin.
I quickly pushed her off of me and climbed over her, I smiled darkly at her and started to punch her. She tried to stab me in the chest but she missed only managing to hit my shoulder, I felt the hot red blood pouring out from my wound.
I pulled the knife out from my shoulder, and stabbed her in the arm, her friends ran off to get help. But I just couldn't stop, all the rage I kept bottled inside finally rose, I could feel the anger coursing through my veins burning like a fire.
All the times she tortured me and bullied me all those memories started to surface, I lifted the knife and stabbed her in the thigh, I knew what I was doing was wrong but I just couldn't stop. It felt good, it felt nice seeing her in pain for once. I stabbed her again in the thigh, then I stared to cut her. A devilish smile spread across my face as her red warm blood splattered across my uniform.
"Please stop, I'm sorry, please just stop" She said as tears ran down her fragile little face.
I laughed manically, and looked straight into her deep blue eyes as they filled with tears. At that moment I could see everything she was. She looks so terrified I said to myself she's terrified because of me, I could have killed her, what have I done? I lifted knife high above her chest, and her eyes softened accepting that she was going to die. I stabbed the ground just next to her chest. Her eyes were closed, ready to embrace the pain. But she slowly opened them shocked as to why she was still alive.
I got up and limped to my locker. I pulled out a bag that said emergency. I always kept a emergency medical kit in my locker, just in case someone got hurt. I walked over to her and opened the kit. Inside there were some band aids, alcohol, tweezers, cotton wool, a thermometer and a bandage. I took out a cotton ball and poured some alcohol on it. I took her injured leg and placed it on my lap.
"What are you doing?" She asked puzzled as to why I just tried to kill her and now I was helping her.
"Helping you, what does it look like I'm doing?" I said annoyed as I placed the cotton ball on her wound, and she winced in pain.
"Why didn't you kill me?"
I sighed as I wrapped her leg with the bandage then looked her in the eyes. I got up not saying a word and walked down the hall way, then I stopped and turned to face her "Because I'm not you." I said simply then I walked away.
