Chapter 9: Mind Makes Space

Kumas was running, sprinting, rocketing his way away from the five. He though he would be invisible, but he was so glad that he was round the corner.

"If I wasn't-"

He shuddered at the thought, he moved left, tilting his feet at that direction.

The only exercise he got was from getting bullied, He did not enjoy it as it like a form of torture

'I should be fine running out one of them, I know that, but…'

Mandy, Billy, Ray, and mature lady were great at running. However, he had his perks. He had been bullied from them and he would know when they would arrive.

'That's right, use your-'

WOOSH!

"Aaaarh, so close," it was Mandy, you could tell from her squeaky voice.

Billy roared, "get him and you get something from me."

That motivation was all it took, the three were ready, they still didn't see his face, but they needed it desperately.

Kumas was having a mental breakdown, he was asking himself so many questions.

'I should be able to tell, why?'

'Did they get better?'

Mandy is the fastest out of all.

'Not…Billy is, so…'

He was running down a secluded rea but once he made his turn right, it was filled with people, he took the opportunity, he saw a paper bag and grabbed it, putting it over his head.

WOOSH!

He was ambushed. The man that had cradled him down was the average person, he was the one which had a weird thing going with him.

'Yeah, I remember about it, out of all of them, he is- '

He was being pinned down. The surrounding area was a large place with shops on both sides, the fruity smell from a shop ran by a person with an Asian background, shop sign written in an Asian language.

He got looks, the pavement was fairly large, in the distance, it would be crowded, and you could hear pushing, most likely by the boys as the girls would be too weak, but they would if they could.

'This guy…'

Kumas had a bag in him, he could not see anything, but the sun was on his side, through that, he could see the vague shadowy figure from him. The stench coming from it was not nice, but he took a deep breath. He instantly looked at him and remembered what he had done.

Even though if he was found he would die, he kept his cool.

'Before I would have given up'

Kumas was in a room, the teacher wasn't arriving yet. He had already been abused and his whole face was bruised. His body took less of a toll, which was nice for a change for him.

"Hahah, are you serious?"

The guy would shout it out, "Jim, you are going to believe it?"

Jim was walking behind him, his blonde hair swayed erroneous. The girls, even though he hanged out with Billy, was not a popular guy. He grabbed Kumas out, dragging him out. His friend did not intervene, but he did not collaborate. He stayed in the room.

They arrived at the toilets as Kumas's departed look was shown to the world.

The guys that were inside left when they saw Kumas. They weren't getting involved with it.

He grinned to what he was going to do, Kumas was a stone stature, such silence seeped slowly everywhere. Sadly, Jim did not care. The talentless guy looked at Kumas as he was on his knees, as if praying.

He sighed, "I have to try this out, if not then I am screwed, I will not be took seriously, " he muttered everything quickly.

Kumas was still silent, he accepted it then Jim went in for a kick. It was a weak kick, to the head. He cracked a smile, happy he hit the dummy right. Kumas was on the floor, Jim moved in and straightened him.

'His stupid smile looks dumb'

Kumas experienced the same kick later that day when Billy brought him down on the knees, same situation, in the treacherous hall.

BANG!

He comes in a steal him with a kick.

Billy looks impressed, so do others, but Kumas looks in confusion at his face, but you could not tell because of the purple layer of skin in front of him.

He just looked as if he could do it any day, which most were impressed about, but earlier the day, he was scared of not getting it right.

Back to outside the shop, a woman was trying to leave, and she sees the commotion, the other four rushing over to him, she was looking afraid at what was going to him, she just looked, not intervene.

She looks at the kid, who has a bag clasped over him, suffocation was her first though even though there were holes at the bottom, she still peered at him. A bag in her hand was being cradled in her arms, like a baby.

He had turned behind him, she looked where his eyes were pointing at, a whole group of four were coming and they were close. She saw his face; he was looking behind for reassurance. This perplexed her, until she saw the turn of events

BANG!!!

It was a surprise attack at the back of the head, it was not meant to knock him out, but it was for his hands to let go.

'When he turns, he wants to know how far they are because he is nervous, that how he acts, so this is the perfect time to strike'

When he smacked, he did not move far away because of his weak body.

'I can't knock him off, but I can make him feel startled and he lets go around my neck. The bag covers me, hides my identity, but I can't see, so I have to be facing the other way before I can take it off.'

The woman saw everything Kumas though come out right how he planned, he twists, which moves the boy away. He kicks off pushes and nearly misses the boxes in front of him- he throws the bag away that was on top of his head.

She then feels the wind of the others stopping, except from another person who was chasing him, this time being a broader man.

Jim says when they arrived, "he caught me good, he was strong not to get strangled, and he even got me by the chin, knocking me over."

The girls sigh, Mandy says, "he must be strong."

Jim nods but thinks something completely different.

'Yes, man they believe me'

The mature girl looks at Billy, "What do you think?"

He replies with a sigh, she looks worried, so he answers, "It's alright, Silvy," he turns and looks at the destruction they did.

'It's not him.'
