The Bully

  Darrell, a small-for-his-age freshman who moves across the country runs into a fellow classmate and notorious bully, Tyray, before school even starts. Minding his own business, Darrell goes into the supermarket where he meets Amberlynn. Realizing that they were going to be attending the same school they kept in touch where it eventually led to feelings for one another.  Rite off the bat after Tyray and Darrell’s first meeting, Tyray makes Darrell’s life miserable. He physically assaults him, threatens him both verbally and with a knife and forces him to pay him each week to “leave him alone”. He became extremely frustrated with himself for allowing some kid bully him for his money. Something so childish yet dangerous put Darrell’s life at risk, he decided that it was time to make a few changes. After reading Hatchet in class he was inspired to join his schools wrestling team. He couldn’t keep letting Tyray control his life. He thought that by joining the wrestling team it would give him the confidence yet strength he needed.
