To Hell I Must Go

I woke up early today and checking the clock outside it's currently 3:30 AM. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes I picked out the more expendable hand-me-downs and went out for a morning run in the cold January air. The snow was rather beautiful even if it is always cold. I ran for a solid 30 minutes before I stopped for a quick stretch and headed back to the Dursleys. I started doing push-ups in the living room managing to hit 50 and getting a point in strength before I moved on to some ab exercises. By the time I was done, it was 4:39 and I needed to get ready to cook.

Throwing a quick cleanse on my messed-up clothes I took a quick shower with warm water and brushed my teeth with barely a squirt of toothpaste. By the time I was done drying off, it was 5:02. I got into the kitchen and started washing the dirty dishes. And that was when all my worries washed out of me with a single notification.

The Dursleys came down by 6 after I'd already finished eating my vervain/wolfsbane-infused food which is somehow affected by my cooking skill even though I didn't make it. By 7 we were finally out of the house and I still hadn't gotten any quests.

Hoping that it would activate in class proved to be wrong and since I can't just skip these boring classes I slept through most of them (except history). While Duddley and his gang gave me a mix of threatening and mocking looks with promises of seeing me at lunch. I didn't care though they're just extras and won't amount to anything in life unless their daddies take pity on them. Not finding anything challenging I darted out of the last class before lunch and made my way to the library where they have some fucking SKILL BOOKS!

I darted around everywhere picking up anything and everything whether it was inappropriate for my age or not. I had found 20 skill books and managed to make a little secret base in a small crack between bookshelves.

The librarian was giving me some strange looks but didn't bother me when I left sadly the same was not true for Dudley.

"Oi mate, the cunts over there!"

Dudleys group stared at me for what seemed a pregnant moment and then I ran. Dancing through crowds, jumping over the wet sand pit, and going through swings in use hoping at least one of them would be dumb enough. Only one of them sort of got hit by the swings but they just kept on coming.

"Get back here freak!"

"We won't hurt ya too bad."

"Yeah, we just wanna talk!"

Running into the math classroom I waited until they were just about to come in and slammed the door on Terry. I bolted to the right-

"Got you!"

Everythings blurry and my stomach hurts but I didn't get-. They started piling in on me hitting my legs and torso never once touching my face. I pushed, pulled, and bit at anyone I could reach but they just held me down, and slammed my head on the ground.

Terry POV

My head was throbbing and it was all because of Dudley's freak cousin. He's going to pay for that. The guys are already wailing on him but I want him to remember this beating in particular. Picking up a chair I make my way over to them shoving Dudley off him who looked slightly fearful.

"Know your place you piece of shit!!" I shouted chair raised high above my head and that's when everything went wrong. One second my mates were trying to pull me back and stop me the next all I saw was black.
