Who: Dustin and Open What: Dustin is bullied and loses his bike. Fun times When: After School (Sept 5) Where: Streets Rating: low
There were things that were embarrassing in school, like spilling milk on yourself or calling your teacher ‘mom’ in front of the class. Then there were things that happened that Dustin wasn’t sure you ever came back from, like having your bike stolen from you by a bunch of bullies.
It was unfair, really. Back home he’d literally saved the world and went up against scary-ass monsters and yet he couldn’t hold his own against bullies. What was it with bullies? How did they have power over him still?
“Hey! I’m going to charge you interest for borrowing that!” He shouted. It was a lame joke, but what else were you going to do after you were beat up and were watching a group of bullies disappear down the street with your bike? Now he was going to have to walk home AND explain to Nastaha about his fat lip. Great.
