Bianca was the last one to leave the classroom per usual as the school day finally came to an end. The final bell had sounded and students from all over the building rushed down the hallways as quickly as they could to reach the front doors to freedom.
Nicole and Patricia meanwhile stayed behind to watch over their friend from afar. The halls were pretty much empty now like Bianca said and she had just reached her locker before an all too familiar face came into frame walking from around the corner.
Colin had no idea what was coming, nor did he see his favorite targets friends crouched behind the garbage can. All he saw was Bianca and one last chance to mess with her before rushing to the bus. "Well, well, well. What do we have here."
Bianca immediately recognized his voice and turned from her locker to see his smug little face fast approaching. This is how it almost always went. Her getting ready to leave and him making his presence known. "Colin. What brings you to my locker today?"
While she kept him distracted, Nicole and Patricia sprang into action. The latter brought the milk carton to bear and cracked it open to check on her little terror. The fire ant was still alive and now crawling towards the opening she'd made.
"He's ready." She whispered, giddy with excitement at what she and Nicole were about to unleash on the poor unsuspecting boy.
"He better be, it's showtime." The former smiled as she set her father's shrink ray to grow. She was just as excited as Patty.
Patricia nodded and blew the fire ant a kiss before placing the carton on the ground and watching the little guy scurry on out. "Fire when ready."
"Gladly." Nicole smirked. She did a mental countdown in her head as she aimed down the barrel of the gun. She closed one eyes, stuck out her tongue, and pulled the trigger.
Back at the locker Bianca continued to endure Colin's teasing before the boy surprised her by pulling her into a headlock and giving her a noogie of all things. The sudden action messed up her hair and had the unintended effect of freeing Steve.
The little scientist was in free fall but managed to catch himself by grabbing a fistful of flowing locks. Had he been a few seconds later then he might've become a stain on the floor. "Thank goodness I go to the gym from time to time. What the hell?!"
Neither student could see it yet, but something was coming towards them. Something big, red and fast. Steve could see it because of the angle he was in, and it caused him to scream. A scream that was drowned out by an annoyed Bianca.
"Get off me!" She shouted. She pushed with all her might and actually got Colin to let go. The surprised by stumbled backward and collided with something big and hard. At first he thought it was a teacher and turned around to apologize before letting out a girlish shriek.
Bianca was angry and confused and whatever admonishment she had for her bully was silenced by the sight of the giant ant that had apparently scared Colin half to death. It was so damn big and scary and... now it was Bianca's turn to scream. She hadn't planned on being this close to the bug. She hated bugs!
"Uh... Patricia." Nicole spoke nervously.
"Yeah." She answered not looking away from the scene.
"That's not a red ant."
"Of course it is. Just look at it." She smiled.
Nicole shook her head. "No, that's a fire ant!"
Patricia was confused for a moment before looking closer as the realization dawned on her. "Oh! Well, then this should be even better right."
Colin had stopped screaming now and was instead frozen like a statue with his jaw hung wide open. It twitched but no words came out. Unbeknownst to anyone else in the school, Colin was deathly afraid of fire ants. Normal bugs he could deal with, even arachnids, but fire ants... that was a completely different story.
