Sammi was on her feet in seconds. This was going too far. "Wait, stop! Stop, everyone just freeze" she yelled, running over to stand between Maggie and Liam who was ontop of Marcus, squeezing the air from him. "Just knock it off and talk like civilized people" she begged.
Marcus, on the ground, gasped through the tight hold on him, "Yeah freak, let me go!"

"Don't call me freak, cause you did far worse to me, then I did to you, now say you are sorry or I won't stop.. and then we can have our civilized talk." Liam said, squeezing harder, he just looked at Sammi, and shook his head a bit, he wouldn't stop until this animal said he was sorry. "I'm sorry Sammi, if he doesn't excuse himself for all the suffering and beating he gave me.. I'll keep squeezing."

"What do you care about cilvilized talks?" Maggie scowled at Sammi, pulling her backwards away from Liam and Marcus by the upper arm. "Let them handle it their way." Next she knelt so that she was on the same eye-level as Marcus and said serenely, "I would do as he says Marcus. He's pretty mad at you."
Marcus was starting to get light headed from the lack of air. It seemed like time was standing still. Everyone was staring at him.

"You gonna talk Marcus, or you want me to keep going.. can't hear you." Liam said, as he stopped the squeezing for a while to let him breath, but soon he was squeezing him again, harder, ready to get an answer, no matter how long it would take, the other kids seemed all shocked by what was going on, a geek 'defeating' a hockey player. "Come on, your silence is making me more angrier."

Every pore of Marcus' body screamed in protest. He needed air. Finally, he gasped with his last ounce of strength, "I want to talk to her first!" And lifted a shaking finger with difficulty to point at Maggie.
Maggie was floored. "Me? Why me?"
"I just...need to ask...you a...question" he grunted in pain, taking deep breaths...well as deep as Liam's grasp would allow.

Liam just looked at Maggie, wondering if it was such a good idea. He squeezed him more tighter, to at least make him weaker when he would get up. He stopped squeezing and got up, even helping Marcus to get on his feet, but he was looking at him, a cold glare since he didn't trust Marcus. "Try something on her.. and you'll regret it... might be the last thing you do." Liam just said, as he looked at him and then at Maggie, he was worried for her, but at least he knew Marcus would be a bit weak to try and do something to Maggie.

"How cute" he rasped, leaning against a nearby post to catch his breath. "The two oddballs are a couple." He took a final, shaky breath and straightened up.
"We're not a couple" Maggie said immediately. "We're just friends. Something you may not know about" she added in an innocently sweet tone, her coffee-brown eyes tinted with flecks of laughter as she spoke.
"Why you" Marcus began, taking a step forward, but he seemed to calm himself down before the step was even half complete as he backed off with a soothing breath. "Anyways..." he looked around at the throng of kids watching. "I'd rather we talk in private" he added a bit awkwardly, which was uncharacteristic for him.

"We talk here, or I'll put you to the ground and squeeze you so hard your head will explode. Either you have the guts to talk in front of all these people, or you are a chicken. I had enough of your treatment and I think it's pointless to run away. Beat it kid, you got owned by a geek or freak as you say, but I'm not like you, a real freak is someone who beats up others for his own fun, and does it with his hockey group, bunch of cowards." Liam said, looking at Marcus friend. "Is that what your friendship is Marcus.. a group of people with whom you will go on and humiliate others because they are different, a group that would let you die if you were in danger." Liam said, looking at Marcus's friends, he was disgusted by them. "I would of saved your life.. if you were in danger, no matter how you treated me.. but I know you wouldn't do the same."

Marcus pretty much ignored everything that Liam said. He wasn't seeing a way out of appologizing. Maybe if he caught the girl off guard, he could grab her and use her as a hostage. He stared off into space for a moment, thinking, trying to lull everyone into a false sense of security. Then he pounced, reaching out to grab Maggie by the arms, with the plan of holding her wrists behind her back painfully until Liam agreed to call it even and forget the whole thing. However, that's not how it worked.
Maggie pretended to be surprised by the attack, but in reality she saw it coming. She waited until her arms were behind her back and Marcus was panting in triumph to yank her arms forward, bringing Marcus's arms over her head. Spinning around, she pinned one of his arms behind his back and used a foot in the back to push him to the ground again. "Really?" She shook her head. "How stupid do you think I am? Now I believe Liam is waiting for something."

"Guess you never learn, I tried to be compassionate Marcus, I'm done now.You will die!" Liam said, as he resumed the wrestling move he did, squeezing hard, real hard so he would lose air again, he was of course kidding about the whole killing him part, maybe Maggie knew he was kidding, but Marcus didn't seem to know, specially because of the tight squeeze. Liam just kept on squeezing, waiting for Marcus to say something, to say he was sorry for all the damage he did.

Maggie backed off, dusting off her hands as Liam resumed control. She watched as Marcus' eyes began to roll back in his head.
"That boy is going to kill him" Scott remarked in horror from where he had materialized next to Maggie.
Maggie, after giving her heart a moment to relax from the surprise of her Uncle's appearance, shook her head and whispered, "He'll appologize. Any minute now."

Liam let the grip soften to let him breathe a bit and soon enough, he started squeezing again harder, waiting for him to apologize, he wouldn't stop until he got what he wanted, though he was also worried about Marcus, he didn't want to kill the guy, he wasn't really showing his worry but still he didn't want to have this in his conscious. "Come on you idiot just say you are sorry.. aren't you feeling any remorse for what you did, think back of all those days of torture you give me, show me your human side." Liam thought as he kept on squeezing, waiting for the apology.

"Maggie, you have to do something. He's killing that boy." Scott was staring, transfixed, just like everyone else on the quad, as Marcus gave a shuddering breath and was still.
Maggie took a step forward, her mouth partially open. She had no idea Liam was that strong. "Liam...I think maybe you should stop..." she whispered, putting a hand to her mouth.
There were several screams from the onlookers.
(haha you killed him! lol jk)

Liam just stopped when Maggie told him to, he verified him for a pulse and could sense on, a bit weak but he was still there, he sighed calmly and got up, looking at him. "I guess I underestimated the strength of my legs.... but I think he will open his eyes any moment now." Liam just said, not really happy of what happened, this wasn't quite part of the plan. "Yeah, if he was the one doing that, you'd probably be cheering him huh, and now you ain't even saving your friends, get out you bastards before I do it to you guys as well." Liam just said, disgusted by their actions more then anything else, as he looked in his school bag for some water, however though he took out his lunch, for a slice of bacon, he was wondering if this would work on Marcus, as he put the bacon close to his nose. It usually worked to wake up his brother or even his father.

Maggie collected herself and she and Sammi ushered the crowd away. Then they knelt by Marcus' side. "Marcus..." Maggie called softly, watching with baited breath as Liam waved the bacon under his nose.
"Wake up, Marcus" Sammi whisper-preyed. She didn't know how to explain to one of her best friends that her boyfriend had been killed by a freak.
A moment later Marcus' eyes fluttered twice and then opened. He took the bacon and ate it in one bite. Then he slowly looked around. "Liam" he said slowly, using Liam's real name for probably the first time since kindergarten. "I'm sorry."
