Sydney made his way to school, just as always. And, just as always, Ed McMillan and his goons decided to have a little fun with him. But Sydney certainly wouldn't have called it "fun".

Ed just laughed. "Or what, pipsqueak?"
Sydney shoved his hands in his pockets and that's when he felt the key begin to warm up. What was happening? Why was it doing that?
