When our four boys were done with their lunch, they decided to give Jake a tour of their school, but when they were heading down the stairs, they ran into quite a jock.

"Hey! Watch it!" He yelled as he turned. And Danny's stomach twisted when he saw the face.

Dash stood in front of them, with his new buddies. Dash recognized Danny's face and grinned. "Well, well..." Dash crossed his arms, excitement glistening in his eyes seeing his old victim, "if it isn't the Fenturd. I wondered where you ran off to."

Dash grabbed Danny's collar, and boy, the familiar feeling of having this kid's scent of fear enjoys him so much. "Hey!" Jake kicked Dash's hand off of Danny and said, "don't touch my friend!"

Calling someone his friend feels nice for Jake, so of course he'll protect him! "Back off, shorty!" said another jock who pushed Jake to the ground. Jake got up and punched him in his stomach. And you do not want to get punched in your stomach after lunch.

The four boys got ready in a fighting stance, while the three jocks are enraged.

Dash threw a fist towards Danny, but he caught it and twisted it. Another came for Jake. Jake dragged his hand down and was able to uppercut him. The other one was going for Howard, but Randy kicked him in the chest before he can even lay a hair on Howard.

The fight went on and they started to attract a crowd. "Heh, I guess Fenturd and his new friends found some new tricks!" Dash commented when he hit Danny in the chest.

Danny went backward, but someone caught him. He looked up and saw Nomi Norisu, Randy's popular bully. And boi, does he look mad! Nomi pushed Danny out of the fight and headed towards the fight.

He knocked out Dash in one punch, made Jake's bully pushed towards the wall, and then finally grabbed the collar of Randy's bully and told him, "Randy is ! NO ONE TOUCHES HIM!"

He then threw him to the crowd that was watching, "who else wants to touch Cunningham?!" Everyone backed away. Some even ran.

He then looked at Randy, mad. He grabbed him by his collar and said, "if you let anyone touch you again, you'll be going to the hospital!"

He then threw Randy in an open locker and slammed the door. He then walked away, frustrated.

Howard opened the locker door and let Randy out. His back was hurting and he has a light bruise on his chest. Howard chuckled as he looked at Randy. Danny had small bruises on his back, but he looked like he felt nothing. And Jake looked like he didn't come from a fight.

"Who was that?" Jake asked. Howard rolled his eyes and replied, "Nomi Norisu. He's Half Japanese. And he just LOVES to throw Randy in the trash."

"And what you saw back there is Nomi's possessiveness," Danny continued.

Jake snickered and commented, "sounds like an overprotective boyfriend to me."

"NO! HE'S NOT!" Randy yelled as he pushed Jake.

"Then what's with the blush?"

Randy's eyes widen as he realized his body's reaction. "Oh my juice! You have a crush on Nomi Norisu?!" Howard asked, "for how long?!"

"Yo, Howard. Chill..." Danny said.

"Chill?! HOW COULD I CHILL?!"

Jake started to laugh while Howard is arguing with Danny. And poor Randy can't think, so he stood there, being a blushing mess.

Randy tried to clear his mind. He is now in training with Nomicon. Nomicon saw him having trouble with his inner peace. Nomicon sighed and said, "what is bothering you mind, ninja?"

Randy sighed and stopped what he was doing. "There's this... guy. That seemed to bully me since 10th grade. Then one of my new friends pointed out that he may or may not... Like me..." Randy explained, blushing once again.

Nomicon nodded, "he might be an enemy disguised as a friend. What has he done today?"

"Well, he beat up some guys who were bothering us, and he shoved me in a locker."

Nomicon chuckled and muttered, "kuudere."

"What?"

"Nothing," he stood up and said, "let's get you some peace of mind first. "

Jake closed his math book and then groaned. He was finished studying for the night. He then pulled out a box from below his bed and then opened it. Inside was the glowing emerald and a book Gramps gave him before he left. He opened the book and then scanned it if there is anything about glowing gems.

Sadly, there's none. He sighed and closed his book. Then, something banged on his window. He opened it and saw a book on the ground. He went outside and picked it up. He then went inside and opened the book. There was still time until his patrol. And he started reading:
