" What's going on is everyone going nuts?," she asked, pulling him to her locker.

Sorry, Nightfire, I _can't_ let this pass by now. Alipang's instincts where his sisters are concerned are too strong for him _not_ to show up here.

"Hey, now I see why the drugstore was all out of ugly pills: _this_ dude ate them all!" Alipang's coldly challenging tone was clear for everyone to hear in a hundred-yard radius. When the big bully faced him, Alipang added:
"Of course, for your body to hold that many ugly pills, the guts had to be dumped out first. I know _you_ don't have any, because you didn't come looking for me. I'm not hard to find...unless I choose to be. But we should have our discussion after school, because you need some education in here before I give you my kind of education. You'll need to be able to spell your name and address on the hospital admission forms."
This was the first time Alipang had ever looked at Kim _without_ a worshipful expression. The look he gave her was not at all hostile to her, but it was businesslike--more adult-looking than she had yet seen on him.
"Kim, I'm _not_ fighting him _here;_ but I'm letting him know I'm very available to him later, provided he has the backbone to try hitting from in front instead of behind."
Alipang pointed ominously at the bully--who was no bigger than dozens of other boys he had put away easily on the streets--and something in his gesture stilled the totally unoriginal filthy language that was beginning to flow from the larger boy's leering mouth. "HE should have stopped before he laid hands on our friend! But I tell you what, Mr. World Champion of Ugly; since you are so UN-wanted by any girl alive that you have to ask the girls on MY side to protect you, I'll show consideration to _them;_ if you apologize to my friend you pushed, and keep out of our way from now on, I _won't_ knock your head down inside your stomach."
OOC: I'm back, and sadly, I've missed 46 pages...has anyone said anything to Jason? Can he just walk in again?
