Just Another Innocent Bystander...

The fight started in the hallway outside of our cafeteria.

Now, listen to me, I’m not one of those kids who urges them on, I’m not a bad person.

Then again.. wasn’t about to break it up.

I just kind of stood there… an innocent bystander, if that’s what you want to call it.

Girl fights are always harder to break up than boy fights are.

They stop at nothing. She ripped out her hair, the other one shrieked. Her expression was twisted with rage. For her, there were no rules right now.

No one was stopping her; I thought the good-doers of the school would’ve eventually ended this, but evidently not…

Where were the teachers?

The fight was slowly moving back into the cafeteria. The nastier girl, Kelsie, pushed the other one as hard as she could.

She hit the garbage can, spilling food onto the floor.

This was all probably started because of some petty drama that just got out of hand.

The meaner one looked about ready to kill her. It was about to go too far.

I stepped forward.
