Later that day, they went to school, and Danny met up with Gwen and Harry by his locker. Harry was the first to speak up. [color=39b54a]“Well, what happened? Are you feeling ok?”[/color]

[color=6ecff6]“Yeah, spill!”[/color] Gwen chimed in. [color=6ecff6]“And where’s your glasses?”[/color]

Danny sighed. He was ready to reveal everything that happened to his friends. But before he could get a word in, Skyler came barging in, and slammed Danny’s locker shut in front of his face. Skyler was seething with rage. [color=blue]“There you are you little twink!”[/color]

[color=pink]“Hey Skyler… Um… D-d-do we have to do this now?”[/color]

[color=blue]“Your sister made a fool of me. But guess what, your sis isn’t here to protect you this time. So I’m going to give you the pounding you deserve!”[/color]

[color=39b54a]“Leave him alone Skyler. He didn’t do anything to you.”[/color]

Skyler glared at Harry. [color=blue]“Stay out of this Potter! What are you gonna do? Cast a spell on me?”[/color]

Harry crossed his arms, and rolled his eyes. [color=39b54a]“Oh, a Harry Potter joke. I haven’t heard that one before…”[/color] His tone dripping with sarcasm.

[color=pink]“I don’t want to fight you Skyler.”[/color] a crowd was starting to form.

[color=blue]“I don’t want to fight me either!”[/color] and just like that, Skyler threw the first punch.

Danny felt a tingling sensation in his head, and suddenly, the world slowed down. Skyler punched in slow motion, and Danny tilted his head and dodged it before the world returned to normal speed.

This didn’t deter Skyler one bit, and he tried to punch Danny again, but only to get the same result. Danny was just as surprised as Skyler was.

Skyler continued punching and Danny kept dodging. He moved with almost supernatural precision.

Gwen tugged on Harry’s shoulder. The concern for the situation in front of her clear on her face. [color=6ecff6]“Harry! Help him!”[/color]

Just then, Danny did a flip, and dodged Skyler’s punch. Causing Skyler to punch the locker instead.

Harry blinked. [color=39b54a]“Which one?”[/color]

Skyler was growing frustrated. [color=blue]“Damn it, HOLD STILL!”[/color] He roared.

Skyler threw another punch, but this time Danny caught his arm mid punch, and squeezed it tightly, causing Skyler a lot of pain. Then he let go and sent Skyler flying across the hallway.

As Skyler crashed into a bunch of lockers, the gathering students gasped in astonishment, before bursting into applause and cheers. “Woo, way to go!”

Danny stood there, his expression a mix of shock and confusion, as he realized what he had just done. Then he quickly walked away.

Gwen and Harry rushed to Danny’s side, their expressions a mixture of concern and awe. Gwen’s voice was barely above a whisper as she spoke. [color=6ecff6]“Danny, what just happened?”[/color]

Danny shook his head, still trying to process the surreal experience. [color=pink]“I… I don’t know. It was like everything slowed down, and I could see his punches coming before they even happened.”[/color]

“Yo, Dan! That was amazing!” Said a random student.

Danny gave him a quiet wave.

Harry glanced at Danny’s hands, noticing the way they were trembling slightly. [color=39b54a]“Do you think… do you think it has something to do with the spider bite?”[/color]

“Nice one dude!” Another random student gave Danny a thumbs up.

[color=pink]“Um… thanks?”[/color]

Before he could respond, Skyler groaned from where he lay sprawled on the floor, his face contorted in pain. Slowly, he pushed himself upright, his eyes blazing with fury. [color=blue]“You… you freak!”[/color] Skyler spat, his voice trembling with rage. [color=blue]“You think you’re so special. Well, guess what? This isn’t over. Not by a long shot. You hear me?!”[/color] He shouted across the hall, but Danny ignored it.

Gwen turned to Danny, her eyes wide with wonder. [color=6ecff6]“Danny… you have powers.”[/color]

Danny looked at his friends, a sense of excitement building within him despite the lingering uncertainty. [color=pink]“Yeah… yeah, I do.”[/color]

The bell rang signaling the start of class, Danny and his friends exchanged a knowing glance. Throughout the day, Danny would get cheers and congratulations from other students, and for a while, Danny would be the popular twin.
