“Stop that!” Skye cried, panicked.

“Quit it, dude. You made your point,” Kee said to Cord, grabbing his arm and pulling him away from Pip.

“Hey,” a man’s voice shouted from across the street, and suddenly, the beam of light from a powerful flashlight swept across their faces. “What the heck is going on over there?”

“They – they were beating my friend up for no reason,” Skye cried, her words tumbling out into the night.

The flashlight beam rested on Aaron’s face for a moment. “Oh, it’s you,” the man said as he approached the group of kids, his voice flat and unsurprised.

“Hi, Mr. Walters,” Aaron said with no change in his expression. “These kids were making a lot of noise, and we just stopped by to see if anything was the matter.”

“You guys are what’s the matter,” Skye exclaimed, hoping like crazy she wasn’t about to start crying. “We were just standing here! Are you okay, Pip?”
