Standing Up to a Bully
Standing Up to a Bully
I look weak and scrawny but I can hold my own in a one versus one fight. I am 12 and have blue eyes with shiny, sparkling white teeth. I saw the bright yellow school bus bumping down the road. There was one bus stop before me. I needed to make a decision and needed to make one fast. I decided to walk to school so at least I would walk by my friend's house and have someone to talk to. I hate to admit it, but I kind of like Bucsh. Bucsh is the same age as me, but she looks like she is 10. She has blue eyes and shiny white teeth.
I was walking down the sidewalk, about 100 feet from my friend’s house the school bully jumps out of nowhere and tackles me. I fall down with my hands and feet on the ground. The school bully, Rick, sits down on top of me. He weighed a lot! I looked at his companions, most of them were laughing at me. I saw one kid who looked like he didn’t like seeing people being bullied. He was shaking and trembling.I could see a tear coming to his eyes. I tried seeing his eyes, but his eyes veered away. My arms and legs are weakening, they are pretty much numb. The bully calls one of his companions over, his name was Tom. Tom obeyed and sat on top of me. My limbs go numb. I collapse. The wind gets knocked out of me. My face turns purple. I am gasping for air. “Do you want to see a magic trick.” The bully says with a grim smile.
“Sure.”I reply.
I will pull a fist out from behind your ear and punch you in the face.
Of course I got a little jumpy and start screaming. He puts a hand behind my ear and out comes a fist I wince. I feel like his nail cut me. His fist is close to my face, but I react faster than he does. My mouth was blabbing away.
A quarter of an hour has gone by and finally Bucsh comes out of her house and sees me laying on the ground with a bully on top of me and his gang around me. Bucsh charges at the bully. Bucsh hit the bully and he went flying. I started to fight. I wasn’t great I have never been in a fig. ht before. My first punch looked like I was doing the chicken dance. That got one guy laughing. I knew that was my chance. I took it and kicked him in the gut.That sent him onto his hands and knees. One good kick to the face would hurt him, but I didn’t. I went over to another guy and made him laugh. Pretty soon everyone was on their hands and knees except for Bucsh, the bully, and me. Bucsh and I look at each other. We nod. We know what to do, I punch she kicks. She punches I kick. The bully is blocking us, but he is getting tired. Bucsh and I still have lots of energy left. She kicks and I punch one more time and he flies back 5 feet. Normally that would have killed him, but, he’s no more on a diet. He weighs like 300 pounds so the fat saved him. After he hit the wall there was no fat left on him. Seriously, he lost all the fat on his body.
About two minutes later the bully woke up and saw Bucsh and I staring at him. I screamed, “Boo!” at him with a smug smile. That sent him sprawling down the road to his mommy. “Good job Tide,” Bucsh said while patting me on my back. Bucsh and I began on our way to school the rest of the way. I then had confidence against any bully.

I was bullied once it is not a good feeling. Making others feel bad will not help you stand up for other people.
