Yes, they were sure of that. That must have been the reason why Dylan stopped in the first place. What they discussed after that, they weren’t aware, but they’d find out soon.
The other boys waited for their leader and Dylan to reach where they were, then all of them began walking out of the academy together…
Ryan was somehow happy to see that Dylan didn’t later end up reporting to the teachers. But he was so curious to know what Dylan and the boy conversed about.
He was sure what they conversed about was the reason why Dylan didn’t end up reporting to the teachers anymore.
All five of them had walked out of the school compound by now. And the moment that was happening, teachers began walking out of their offices in mass, it was about time for them to head home.
Ryan even sighted Miss Amaya among the teachers…
Many of the students around began leaving seeing that the occurrence was over, that was their style.
The bullies wanted to confirm if Dylan would truly be able to report them to the teachers…they’d confirmed it to the fullest now.
The four boys began walking in the direction that would lead them to their homes after walking out of the academy. And it didn’t take long for Ryan and Dylan to begin doing the same as well.

Ryan and Dylan were still heading home, and they weren’t walking on the road in silence, they were conversing.
What were they conversing about? Of course, they were conversing about what happened at school a few minutes ago after closing hour.
Dylan was telling Ryan the reasons why he didn’t end up reporting them to the teachers. You know, the conversation he had with the boy and so on.
“I attacked them because I couldn’t hold back myself anymore, my anger went beyond its limit. They should have confirmed properly by now that I’m not a weakling, a weakling wouldn’t have been able to do what I did,
I made him promise that they’d stop causing distresses to our lives, and they’d stop causing distresses to other students’ lives as well. If they fail to do this, I wouldn’t waste time reporting them to the teachers”. Dylan voiced out.
Ryan nodded his head a little as a bit of smile appeared on his face, then Dylan’s voice resounded again,
“I also made him promise that he’d inform other bullies in this academy not to dare bully us or bully the other students they’d been bullying. If he doesn’t keep to this, and I end up seeing other bullies causing distress to other students’ lives, or they dare cause distress to our lives,
I wouldn’t waste time reporting them to the teachers, which would also include him and his gang even though they weren’t part of the people involved in this”.
Ryan couldn’t help but to nod his head again after Dylan was done saying that, then he uttered,
“Wow! So you made him promise that. You put him in a really tight corner”.
“I don’t care, all I know is that he has to do all I told him to do, unless he’d bear the consequences. Or did I do the wrong thing by making him promise all that? Was it too much?”. Dylan stated.
“No, for people like them, it wasn’t too much at all. I mean, they’ve done a lot to us, especially me, and they didn’t care about our feelings when they were doing all that. So why should you care about his feelings when you were making him promise all that?”.
Dylan nodded his head a little after Ryan was done saying that as silence ensued for some seconds, then Dylan broke the silence saying,
“Those things I made him promise to do were the only reasons why I chose to pity them and not report to the teachers. If he’d refused to adhere to those reasons, I would have reported them,
People like them don’t deserve to be pitied at all because they don’t pity their preys. They should even be thankful that I pitied them under some circumstances”.
“You did the right thing, I support you in all these”. Ryan stated.
“Thanks”. Dylan said with a little smile appearing on his face.
..Silence ensued after that. They didn’t say anything to each other for about a minute as they kept on walking.
Then Ryan broke the silence saying, “You know something, Dylan”.
Dylan glanced at him before saying, “What is that?”.
“You were so cool during that period. From the time when you lost it and started attacking them, to the time when you started heading toward one of the teachers’ offices to report them,
The fact that their leader did everything in his power to stop you from reaching one of the teachers’ offices, but he couldn’t just. The fact that you came out victorious when the both of you started throwing punches at each other, and so on,
You were so unstoppable, everything was just so cool”. Ryan explained.
Dylan chuckled a little the moment Ryan was done saying that, then he voiced out,
“That’s what happens when you awaken the beast in a person. They awakened the beast in me, and they were so surprised by what they saw”.
Ryan nodded his head a little before saying, “Exactly. I just hope the boy would keep to all he promised”.
“Why wouldn’t he keep to it? He knows what would happen if he refuses to keep to it. I wouldn’t waste time to report all of them. And you could see how scared they were of getting reported”.
“They were really scared, it was evident from their faces”.
“Since they’re that scared of getting reported, the boy would do everything in his power to make sure that doesn’t happen since they’d confirmed that I could truly report them”.
Silence ensued after Dylan said that as the both of them kept walking alongside each other…
******
The four boys were walking on the road right now while conversing among each other. They hadn’t reached their homes yet after leaving school, they still had some more meters to cover before they’d start reaching their homes one after the other.
What were they conversing about? Of course, they were conversing about the incident that took place at school which could be called, ‘Bullying gone wrong’.
They almost got reported, but didn’t due to the fact that their leader begged Dylan and made some deals with him…
Now, the boy had told the others all that Dylan made him promise to do. And you know? They weren’t happy with it at all, and it was evident from their faces while they were conversing with each other.
“No wonder he took pity on us and didn’t end up reporting us to the teachers. He made you promise all these things that are so difficult to accomplish,

I mean, informing the other bullies in our academy not to dare disturb their lives or disturb the lives of other students they’d been bullying. How does that concern us? We have our lives, they have their own lives as well,
Why would he be telling us to inform them about this?”.
These were the words that flowed out of one of their mouths as they were still walking…
“We wanted to confirm if he’d truly be able to report us to the teachers just as he’d been claiming, we’ve confirmed it now, it was such a close call. What are we going to do about this now? All that he made you promise to do”. Another boy voiced out.
Silence ensued for some seconds after those words flowed out of one of the boys’ mouths, then another one uttered,
“He wants us to stop causing distress to him and Ryan’s lives, he also wants us to stop causing distress to other students’ lives. That wasn’t enough for him, he also wants us to inform other bullies in our academy not to dare disturb their lives and to stop disturbing the lives of other students they’d been bullying,
That is just insane. Would we be able to do all these?”.
The leader hadn’t been saying anything for minutes now, he’d just been listening to all that they’d been saying. After that boy spoke, that was when he finally said something,
“If we don’t use our brains here, we’d end up getting reported, and that would be brutal. He was so determined to report us today, it was a fucking close call…you all saw what I did to stop him from reporting us,
If I didn’t do all that, he would have reported us. So we have to be really careful here, reporting us would be a piece of cake for him if we fuck up, and he notices it,
We talked about all these before we resumed bullying Ryan. Now that we’ve confirmed that he could truly report us, this is what we’d do concerning all that he made me promise to do”.
..The others were listening attentively as the leader was talking, especially when he made those last utterances, they wanted to hear his suggestions concerning all that Dylan made him promise to do.
