"You'd better tell me, because if you don't, I'll find out on my own! And then it won't be you who'll be able to hold me back", Jimmy says with his jaw clenched; he had an idea of what was happening, and it was making him angry, very angry.
"Alright, alright! I... he abuses the girls, mostly the cheerleaders!", with clenched fists and an anguished look, Christy turns her attention to Jimmy, extremely uncomfortable about having to bring up that subject.
"Did that pig rape the students?", Jimmy asks in an apparently calm tone; his gaze, on the other hand, was as cold as liquid nitrogen. In his mind, Mr. Burton had just been sentenced to death.
"No, but he's been trying for a long time! He just can't succeed because the girls protect themselves, especially after what happened with Zoe! It's just that I was unlucky today, I was alone in the wrong place at the wrong time", Christy says with her brow furrowed, murmuring the last part as if all this disgusting behavior from Mr. Burton were something normal and what almost happened to her was simply 'bad luck.'
"Bad luck, my ass! That pig should be in jail", Jimmy growls angrily, outraged by what she said. There's no such thing as bad luck; that bastard should be behind bars.
"... Yeah... but the school protects him!", Christy says in a weak voice.
"...", staying silent, Jimmy waits for her to continue. He already knew what she was going to say, but wanted to hear it anyway.
"The time he got the closest to... was with Zoe, but she managed to get away from him! Only when she tried to report it to the principal, they didn't believe her and expelled her from the school without even investigating whether what she said was true or not", Christy explains. After that incident, Mr. Burton seemed to have become even more confident that he'd get away with anything, no matter what he did.
And the girls, knowing what really happened, started protecting themselves since the school apparently protected the monster who hunted them.
From that point on, they began to always move in groups, avoiding walking around at night or being in the same places Mr. Burton usually frequented.
"So the headmaster is covering for this piece of shit?", Jimmy asks, any shred of respect he still had for the headmaster evaporating at that very moment, leaving no trace behind.
"I don't know, but I heard that the... teacher... has only not been fired yet because he knows some dirt on Headmaster Crabblesnitch!", Christy didn't know whether the headmaster was involved or not, but she had heard some gossip about it.
"Whatever, the school protects him, right? Fine, if things can't be solved the right way, well, that ugly pig won't have to wait long; his life is going to turn into hell starting today, that I promise", nodding in understanding, Jimmy says, with a look as cold as absolute zero and a predatory smile that would make the devil himself proud.
"Jimmy...", seeing the expression Jimmy was making, Christy exclaims, worried about what her friend was planning.
"Relax, no one's gonna know I'm the one responsible! Now, come on, I'll walk you to the dorm", Jimmy says, reassuring her before extending his hand with a warm smile.
As the two leave the gym behind, standing on the first steps of the stairs leading to the locker rooms, was Mandy, with her fists clenched; she had seen the entire sequence of events, from Jimmy sneaking out of the girls' locker room to the incident with that pig, Mr. Burton.
Yes, she knew that Jimmy had probably taken back the papers she'd stolen from that weirdo Beatrice, but that didn't matter anymore. The scene she'd just witnessed brought back bad memories; she had lost a close friend because of that shit teacher and only realized later, when that pig tried the same thing with her, that her friend had been right all along.
Shaking her head to push away the bad thoughts, Mandy takes a deep breath before promptly leaving the gym as well; after all, she didn't want to risk staying near that disgusting old man.
=Scene Break=
During the brief walk to the girls' dorm, Jimmy gently strokes Christy's hand to calm her down and show her that he was there, which, along with the cool afternoon breeze and the background sounds of students living their lives, ends up working.
Christy's breathing calms, her posture relaxes, and most importantly, the dark thoughts corroding her mind, the same thoughts she usually managed to hide well, are once again suppressed, which isn't exactly a good thing, but for her, it was better than constantly thinking about setting the school on fire and then killing herself afterward.
Arriving in front of the dorm, Jimmy says while caressing Christy's back, "Promise me one thing, tonight you'll talk about this with a trusted friend; you can't keep this to yourself, it'll do more harm than good if you do!"
"Hmm!", Christy murmurs, agreeing to follow his advice.
"Alright, it's a promise then!", extending his pinky for her to grab, Jimmy says with a mischievous smile appearing on his face, "Tomorrow everyone's gonna wake up to a surprise, I promise you!"
"Be careful, Jimmy!", grabbing his extended pinky with hers, Christy takes the moment to say.
"I will", Jimmy says calmly as he watches Christy turn and enter the dorm.
As soon as the girls' dorm door closes behind Christy, Jimmy notices Beatrice waiting a good ten meters off to the side.
After approaching and having a brief conversation, Jimmy hands her the lab notes and leaves after receiving the agreed-upon five bucks. Beatrice, meanwhile, goes back inside the dorm.
Then, as he passes under the large archway in front of the girls' dorm, Jimmy notices Mandy Wiles, in her cheerleader uniform, approaching. There were no other students around besides the two, so she easily noticed him too.
"Pervert!", Mandy says in acknowledgment as she passes Jimmy.
"Weirdo!", Jimmy retorts as he passes by her, also in acknowledgment.
"I know you got the papers from my locker!", after a few steps, Mandy stops, turning her attention to Jimmy before speaking, starting a conversation.
"Don't know what you're talking about", looking at her briefly, Jimmy says before walking again.
"Wait, Jimmy! What are you scheming?", calling him by name, Mandy asks in a bossy tone.
"Nothing that concerns you", Jimmy retorts dryly, not stopping his pace.
"I saw what happened just now in the gym", Mandy raises her voice a bit, being more specific.
"Hrum, so what?", Jimmy asks disinterestedly, still walking.
"So what? You... just spill it already! I know you're planning something, and if it's to screw that disgusting old man over, I'm in!", Irritated by Jimmy ignoring her, Mandy says; it was written on his face that he was plotting something, and if it's what she thinks it is, well, then she wants to take part.
"You're in?", stopping at the intersection that led to the boys' dorm, the main campus building, and the school's main gate, Jimmy turns his attention to Mandy and asks curiously, standing about thirty meters away from where she was.
