On the Bus

The bus is packed and as Maggie is walking down it to take a seat beside Chrissie someone puts out a leg and trips her. She comes down on her bad ankle which twists, sending a jolt of pain up her leg.

Maggie sits down swearing and Chrissie tries to calm her "It's not like you could do anything about it, even if you knew who it was."

Not usually thinks Maggie But maybe..

She puts her hand on the bone and wishes that whoever tripped her would desperately need to pee. Felicity, one of the school 'princesses' (who were more bitchy than rich), suddenly leapt up and moved to the front of the bus, her legs squeezed together.

"Stop the bus" she says.

"I'm sorry" says the driver "but you know the rules, no-one gets off until we get to their school. Now please sit down."

"But I need to go!"

"Need to go where?" suddenly the driver sees how Felicity is standing "Oh."

The bus stops near a park with a public toilet block.

Felicity gets off and begins to waddle toward the toilets. Just before she's out of sight Maggie makes her bladder open bringing a look of horror to her face as the urine pours down her legs.

One of the other 'princesses' gets off after telling the driver that they'll make their own way to school.

"Oh God" says Chrissie "Poor Felicity."

"She deserved it" says Maggie "She tripped me up."

"You don't know that. Even if she did, she didn't deserve to pee her pants in front of everyone... hang on, your acting like you had something to do with it."

Maggie grabbed the bone and ordered Chrissie to forget that Maggie had made any comments about Felicity tripping her or 'deserving it'. She suddenly felt awful for what she had done and began to understand why Dave (and obviously she) needed someone to watch what they did with the bone. One moments anger and she had lashed out, she was only glad that her need for vengeance was so petty. She could have seriously damaged Felicity. If Dave wanted to remove any need to lash out at those who hurt her tonight (at least when she had the bone) she'd be happy to comply.

She spent the rest of the trip changing the memories of the other kids on the bus so they forgot that Felicity had even been there. Sure Felicity and her friend, would wonder why no-one had heard about her little 'accident', but they'd probably just thank their lucky stars.

As the kids exited the bus Chrissie began waving at someone. Maggie who had been lost in thought looked up and saw ...
