"You're dead meat, dweeb!"
Napoleon sprinted furiously down the hall away from his assailant, towards the safety of the principal's office. Jeebums, he thought. Why the hell did Mark have such a vendetta against him? He was nowhere near Mark's plate in the cafeteria when the tainted food was discovered on it. Far be it from Mark to find the real perpetrator though. They were only in seventh grade, was all of their innocence really that fargone?
The pounding of Mark's feet grew more intense and deafening in Napeolon's ears, then disappeared for an instant as Mark leapt into the air and body slammed Jon from behind into the row of lockers. The force of the blow jarred open several nearby lockers, spilling textbooks and gym shorts onto the floor.
Napoleon's blood pressure began to steadily rise. "Mark, what the hell's wrong with you! I told you I didn't touch your plate!"
"Bullshit," Mark snarled. "I spent four hours puking in the bathroom last night and now you're gonna pay."
"I TOLD you, it wasn't my fault! I didn't do it!"
"Well, who fucking cares. Someone's gotta pay, and it might as well be you." WIth that, Mark began relentlessly pummeling Napoleon's chest and abdomen with his fists.
"No...dammit, that hurts! Stop!" His cries of pain went unheard, though. The principal's office was a good 500 feet down the hall, and all of the students and teachers had already left for the day. Napoleon cursed Principal Weaver for keeping his office door shut to obscure the daily distractions of the student body. "I mean it, Mark! Please! You'll regret it later!"
Mark laughed, a deep evil cackle for a twelve-year-old boy, and continued to beat on him with his hands and feet. When he was through, he thought, they'll be cleaning him off the floor with a putty knife in the morning.
Then the noise came from seemingly nowhere. A deep, guttural growl.
Mark stopped for a moment and looked around for the source of the noise. "What the hell was..." He was interrupted in mid-sentence by a blur of movement from behind him that grabbed Mark and tossed him across the hall head-first into the concrete wall.
Mark crumpled into a pile on the floor and gingerly turned himself around to see who had intervened in the fight. His gaze falling on the floor, he saw Napoleon's clothes in irregular shreds laying in a heap. To the right of the pile was a pair of large, hairy feet with sharp black nails emerging from what appeared to be a cross between toes and paws.
Mark shifted his focus upward and couldn't believe his eyes. Standing in front of him was a grizzly bear on its hind legs, about Napoleon's height but with a very muscular build, wearing denim overalls with the insignia "A/B" embroidered on the chest. There was something unsettling, even almost human, about the bear. Why the fuck was it wearing bib overalls, Mark wondered. It turned out to be the last conscious thought he ever had.
The bear growled again and spoke. "Don't say I didn't warn you. This hurts me more than it'll hurt you." Its voice had a strange resemblance to that of Napoleon's. Without warning, the bear jumped on top of Mark and mauled him to death quickly and efficiently, using its teeth to rip off his limbs like al dente spaghetti and then snapping Mark's neck with a single swipe of its arm. Blood seeped from Mark's body into the gymnasium underneath the adjacent door.
Seeing that Mark was dead, the bear muttered to the lifeless corpse, "He'll never mess with Antidote Bear again," and then grabbed Napoleon's clothes with its teeth and ran out of the school.

Note: this series is based on a seriously messed up dream that I had the other night. God knows what I ate before bed that evening.
