The smell of dirty sweaty old gym socks engulfed the air around me as i opened my old gym locker. It was time for me to get my things and go. For as i am not wanted here. I hope things go better than this at my new school seeing as no one will know what dirty deed i have done here. No one must know what i have done until the time is right. The principle is walking down the old musty hallway. The old wooden floor creaking with every step he takes getting louder and louder as he walks up to me. He hands me an expulsion letter with a disgusted look on his old wrinkley, oily, hairy face. i think to myself “What have i done”. ‘Is my time done here”? is this the way god had intended things to be”? So many questions running through my head as i walk out the old rusty front gate of the only school i have known my whole life. No more will i walk the dastardly halls of that old dirty school. Right as i walk out of the school the last bell rings and everyone is walking to load the old busses. Almost every single kid i had walked by gave me the most ugliest disgusted look they could for they know what i had done. Hopefully this expulsion will give me a new chance at life at a new place where i wont be laughed at. No one will tell me how to live my life and what to and not to do. I know that i will not make the same mistake here that i have at the old school. I shall make my presence known at this new place. After my first week everyone in the school will recognise who i am and not to mess with me. All i can do for the next couple days is think of different ways to make my presence known. I could fill the air conditioners with old smelly trout ill buy at the fishmarket up the street so that every time they turn on the heat the smell wafts through the entire school and make sure they know who did it. Or i could also paint the word DEATH on every single wall throughout the school and sign my name under it. But that would be too extreme and i would most likely get expelled again. Hmmm decisions decisions It won't be long until i'm walking the halls of a new school. The next week its time to start I walk through the halls an hour before anyone is even supposed to be there. These halls aren’t dirty. They are clean this is new i've never seen a school with such manners and being so proud of everything they do. I've never seen anything so amazing this school just might work for me but i still have to make my presence known by everyone here. I've decided what i'm going to do. I bought 65 pounds of fish from the local fish market yesterday and i am placing 10 pounds in every heating duct throughout the school. By the time everyone gets here this school is going to reek of old fish. And theres no way anyone would be able to figure that i was capable of such a deed.For all that everyone knows I am just a sweet and innocent little new kid. The bell for first period sounds and everyone is rushing to get into class in these small crowded halls. Theres way too many kids at this school for it to be as small as it is. Everyone is sitting in class now and the heater kicks on. Its only a matter of time until the room is filled with the smell of dead decaying fish. Five minutes go by and the principle announces over the intercom that school will be canceled until further notice. Everyone is wondering why but as soon as he got off of the intercom the stench of the rotten fish smacks everyone in the face. Everyone is screaming and hollering wondering if it was the smell if the principles breath traveling through the intercom. A little before he dismisses everyone to go home he comes over the intercom again and says “ no it is not my breath” and everyone in the entire school was laughing. A minute later everyone but me was rushing throughout the halls trying to get out and away from the disgusting horrid smell of decaying fish. I just sit in my desk and laugh as everyone is trying to hurry and get out. The principle starts walking through the hall trying to find another source for the stench. He walks into the classroom that i am in and asks me if i had anything to do with this. I tell him with no fear or emotion “Yes i did it what are you going to do expel me again?” the principle can already tell that me being here was not going to be a good thing. He tells me “no im not going to expel you but i am going to make you clean everything you did up. I reply”How am i going to do that if I forgot where everything is? A good thing was that he had no idea what else to do so while everyone was out at home during the time we were supposed to be evacuated he made me sit in detention until i was ready to fess up and tell him everything i had done here and at my old school. Too bad for him i was used to being in detention so i just sat there and did work that the teacher faxed them and had me do. It was actually more fun being there than it was having to be in regular class bored all the time. I had never thought being in detention would be better than being in class with all of my friends wait i have no friends im new here. After the principle had decided to clean everything up himself he told me that im not off the hook and that i would either have to join a club to help the school or start one. I told him no im not going to do that and then i just walked back to detention. The next period he made me go back to class and the first thing people said when i walked in was “hey theres fish boy.” I decided that was a good nickname and stuck with it so now everyone calls me fishy or fish or fish boy.I had already climbed the ranks of popularity and was one of the coolest kids in school because i was the only one brave enough to pull a prank on the entire school all by my self. I was proud of myself for doing such an amazing prank. And it was on my first day too. Everyone in school either knew exactly who i was or knew my name. There was not a person you could ask here that doesn't know my name . Out of no where i get like 2 or 3 of the football players who had just happened to be either the principles son or nephews had came up to me and attacked me because they didn't think it was a funny prank i had did. After they were done attacking me i was laying on the floor with a busted nose a busted lip two black eyes and three broken ribs. As soon as my next period teacher had seen me she called the police and had the boys arrested and took me to the hospital so i could get checked out to make sure it was nothing serious. I ended up with a broken collarbone three broken ribs a broken wrist a bruised lung and two black eyes. The boys had been charged with assault and battery. This wasn't the first time i had been jumped and it definitely won't be the last.
