Painting saga part 2 Harley remained livid about what Tomo had done to his painting, he was also furious to how Tai and Matt responded as well. He was grateful that Vicky tried to calm the situation, however that was not enough. Now Brock got involved and so did Drew, he knew that May would end up getting involved with the row as well. That was the last thing he wanted because he despised May with a passion, his hatred for the girl was clear to some including May and his friends, he tried to be kind to her and tried being sweet to her in hope he would be converted but no success - he remained bitter about her. He did believe that Tai, Matt and Tomo were bullying him out of spite. He believed they envied his talent and luck in life. He crossed his arms as he tried to shake off the sadness he was feeling. He was surrounded by May, Dawn, Drew, Sakura, Ino, Shikamaru and the new boy, Ritsuka. The group had been silent for quite a while. Ritsuka didn't have any idea what to say. May didn't want to say anything in case it would Sakura furious. Drew has too many things on his mind. Ino was too busy glaring at May to open her mouth and Shikamaru was asleep. "So where's Ash?" Ritsuka asked May in a timid tone. "He's got a detention with Snape." May replied ignoring Ino's evil looks. Uncomfortable with Ino's haunting glare, she closed her eyes. "You're quite a saucy minx aren't you?" Ino spoke out to May, reflecting on Ash's comment in the class earlier. "What makes you think that?" May asked. "Well, it must have been you who taught Ash what sex was," Ino confronted her convinced of her own theory. "You must have showed him, he's like the dumbest kid in the school." "Shut up!" May muttered. "So how did you get into bed with him?" "None of your business Ino." May began to turn livid from Ino's question. She wanted to slap her so badly, her arms were shaking. "Total slut and a retard," Ino confirmed smirking. "Perfectly suited." May lost control of her arms and her fists flung onto Ino's cheek. The force of the punch sent Ino down her knees and a harsh bang onto the floor. "You dare call Ash that! " May's tone of voice was madder than ever with a sheer bitter tone in her voice. "He is not a retard. Not to mention calling me a slut, when you're dating one. Did she tell you that she kissed a teacher?" May's anger was so intense, she didn't even notice the words coming out of her mouth. She paused as she closed her mouth quickly turned round and saw Sakura startled. "BULL SHIT!" Ino screamed gritting her teeth. "You expect me to believe that?" Ino chuckled, "I think you need a new nickname - Mad May!" "You should know," Sakura stated crawling behind May, "that we have had karate lessons and ninja training. A simple slap can't bring us down!" "That's not a good idea girls," Shikamaru stated crossing his arms. "All three of you are going to get in trouble." "Stay out of this Shikamaru!" Ino announced her eyes directly at May with her hands ready to choke her. "I was only trying to help," Shikamaru replied. "Please no more!" Harley squealed. "I had enough of this in class!" "I thought you'd like it." Sakura smiled surprised with Harley's reaction. "Don't you hate May with passion and wanted her burned alive?" "You've been reading in my diary!" Harley snapped in fury. "All three of you are bitches." He wailed out as Drew attempted to calm him down. "What diary?" Ino asked feeling the urge to fight. "Don't play innocent with me," Harley snapped, "you have been reading my diary!" "We should put a stop to this right now!" Ristuka announced, his palm facing the the girls. "This is completely wrong." "I need to teach this girl a lesson!" Ino replied her hand gripping onto May's delicate neck. "Enjoy the fun Harley." Ritsuka marched over to Ino whilst pushing Ino away from May, "There are better ways to sort this out than violence." Ritsuka was a pacifist and did not accept violence in any shape or form. "Where's this fight then?" Tai asked curiously as was followed by Matt, Yolei and Tomo being dragged along by Yomi. He saw Harley looking upset and the spiky brunette marched over to Harley and patting him on the back. "Hey, I'm sorry about earlier, I had no idea it would actually hurt you." "Tomo," Yomi said pushing up her glasses, "you should apologize too." "Get on with it Ino," Sakura ordered kicking May harshly on the leg. Ino quickly squashed May's legs whilst clenching onto her arms so tight it hurt May. May was not prepared to back down, she had a feeling if she fighted back, she would be just as bad as those two, however, she was not going to be humiliated in front of the whole school. May unleashed screams as Ino covered her mouth, her screams faded but her anger lead her to bite the little finger of Sakura. May felt her hair being pulled back by Ino whilst Sakura threw punches at her. May returned the favor to Ino and then she felt a drop of clear saliva hit her eye. "FIGHT! FIGHT FIGHT! FIGHT!" Tomo shouted out throwing her arms in the air like a cheerleader. "APOLIGISE TO HARLEY!" Yomi roared dragging Tomo to Harley. "No, I want to watch this fight first." "Fine suit yourself!" "You revolting little child!" Harley leaped onto Tomo's top. Tomo knew that he only had a very weak grip so she kicked Harley away from her and allowed him to crash into Drew again. "What's going on here?" Dawn asked Drew running over to him. "Apparently Draco's been telling everyone there's a fight round here involving a painting." "Long story," Drew sighed. "Harley's upset because Tomo edited his painting and Sakura, Ino and May have annoyed each other and Harley's gotten even more upset and now everyone's joining in and making it worse. Ritsuka's trying to stop the fight!" "He can't do it on his own!" Dawn announced walking over to Sakura and Ino. "You know you're all fighting over a painting?" "IT WASN'T JUST A PAINTING!" Harley screamed out. "That was my work and now everybody is turning against me and they're all fighting!" "You're really stupid Dawn,"Sakura told her, "anyway this fight has nothing to do with the painting." Dawn turned and faced Ritsuka, who was still trying to stop the fight. "Ritsuka's right, you're all fighting and beating her up over a stupid thing!" "WHY THE HELL YOU GETTING INVOLVED THEN?" Vicky shouted out marching into fight scene. "Shut up! You don't even know what you are talking about!" "I know exactly what I am talking about." Dawn answered. "Why is everyone getting involved?" Sakura asked whilst Ino and May continued throwing fists at each other. May had simply had enough. The humiliation was bad enough as it is, but now the fight was starting to become ridiculous. Two separate incidents were getting involved and the way it mixed was like a volcano with a vicious eruption. Still, the fact that Ino had actually spat in her eye was a huge shock to her system. She did expect an act so vile and she felt so degraded that in her mind, she compared herself to dirt. "Why did you have a threesome with the Uchiha brothers?" Vicky asked Sakura in a dazed manner as a lame comeback. That was the final straw for Sakura she charged up to Vicky like the wind whilst the plumb blonde held out a silver knife. The pair of them charged into each other with fury, Dawn decided that she had to block the pair of them. "She has a knife!" Matt exclaimed scurrying over to stop Vicky from attacking. "Dawn you might get killed!" Tai shouted out rushing over to push Sakura and Dawn away from Vicky. Dawn screamed whilst she felt a scratch from the silver knife rip from her skin. She closed her eyes and fell onto the floor and started crying. The fighting stopped and Ino and Sakura pushed themselves away from May. She crawled over to Dawn, patting her back whilst she saw the blood dripping to the floor from Dawn's arm. Vicky smirked as she stood there and saw the spots of blood. The plumb blonde felt a tap on her shoulder and saw the new kid, Eric behind her in with a face of fury. He threw his fist at Vicky and the knuckles of his fingers stormed onto Vicky's nose and she tumbled down to the floor. The crowds increased since the fight continued on. Misty barged her way out of the crowd and scurried over to Dawn and May; Ash followed her. Both of the girls were crying their eyes out. "What happened?" Misty asked the pair of them as Ash patted May on the back. "Ino spat in my eye," May sobbed. "I can't believe they did it!" "May pulled the first punch!" Sakura replied. "She's only jealous." Ino muttered as Sakura placed her palm in her hands. "I don't care who pulled the first punch!" Misty roared in disgust, "you're telling me that spitting in someone's face is OK?" "She deserved it!" Sakura screeched. "Her and Ash, you should have heard what they came up with." "They're twisting it!" May shouted out. "Trying to make me look like a whore!" "May, I think you should calm down" Ash muttered shaking his head pulling her back so she wouldn't attack again. He told Misty, "all I said was ask them if Sakura was pregnant." "That wasn't a good idea," Misty whispered to him. "I guess you're going to take your precious Ashy-boy's side," Ino spat out. "I can forgive Sakura for acting crazy," Misty stated in fury, "she's pregnant and it's natural to have mood swings. Ino, you are not pregnant and you degraded yourself and May for spitting in her face!" "You wouldn't understand," Ino sighed. "I might not understand the whole situation," Misty replied pointed at Ino, "what I do know is that spitting is disgusting." "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN HERE?" boomed the voice of Principle Tsunade as she marched through the crowd. "Everyone not involved with the painting incident and all those who just came here to watch, the shows over; back to your lessons. Those involved in the fight, arguments and incidents stay right where you are!" "Break time's not finished yet!" One of the students shouted out. "Recess is over for the time being!" Tsunade snapped. The crowds cut down fast as the conversations arose. "IN SILENCE!" the principle screamed again. There was a sudden silence as Yomi tried hard to keep Tomo in her place. Tsunade remained quiet until all the viewers returned to their lessons. Harley, Tomo, Yomi, Tai, Matt, Drew, May, Ristuka, Ino, Sakura, Vicky, Eric, Ash and Misty were the only students left in the hall by the time the bell rang. All of them could see that Tsunade was furious enough to kill. "One of you guys take Dawn and May to hospital wing immediately." she ordered. "I will," Eric offered holding Dawn's arm gently. "You know where it is?" Tsunade asked him then faced Ash, "Misty, could you lead Eric to the hospital wing?" "Sure," Misty nodded. Ash held onto May's hands as she struggled to get a hold of herself. Misty was in front of the five, following her to the hospital wing. Tsunade placed her hands on her hips looking extremely cross. "Rest of you, my office now!" * * May's head collapsed onto Ash's lap. She needed his comfort, his support and his presence. She watched as Eric was helping Dawn out. May was surprised because at first, she thought that he was quite cold hearted. Watching him help Dawn, made her realize that Eric was actually a very nice person. The shock of Ino's actions had still lingered onto her. "I can't believe how extreme they all went," May sobbed closing her eyes. "It's not your fault," Misty confirmed. "What Ino and Vicky did out there was disgusting. Vicky really lost the plot trying to stab someone. If no one gets expelled today, there is no justice in this school." "The police can get involved right?" Dawn asked shaking her bandaged arm. "Yep," Eric replied trying to comfort her. "Vicky's going to be arrested and expelled. Doesn't take a brain to know that." "Man," Ash sighed, "talk about taking it to the extreme." "What Vicky and Ino did was shallow," Misty added. "It Doesn't matter who started the fight and what it was about, someone who spits at someone or stabs them, is a horrible thing. I hope they learn their lesson." "Ash and I saw Kakashi and Sakura kissing," May told Misty, "then Ino goes and calls me a slut when she's dating a girl whose rumored to sleep around." "Ignore them May," Misty suggested, "things are only going to get worse." "Why did you punch Vicky anyway?" Ash asked Eric. "For hurting Dawn." "That Doesn't actually make sense," Misty admitted, "unless you have a crush on Dawn, then it's pretty much an heroic act." Eric said nothing other than, "thanks." "I pulled the first punch," May admitted, "Ino was saying bad stuff about Ash, and it pissed me off so much I just... flipped." Her eyes closed from the thoughts in her head. "No doubt, they'll lie their way out again." "They said some pretty nasty stuff about Kari and Hilary," Misty stated. "Sakura's made up with Kari, she still hates Hilary." "Girls..." Ash whispered shaking his head.
