Chapter 12

As James is told to follow Ishmael for he needs help to know where his classes are at, Ishmael does not want to help James. The first reason that Ishmael does not want to help James is that Ishmael will have to spend a whole day with the new kid. Ishmael knows that James is a perfect target for Barry Bagsley the school bully. Ishmael knows that if he is with "The New Target" then Ishmael will be affected. The first effect made on Ishmael would be that he will PROBABLY not be bullied anymore, now remember PROBABLY. The second effect made on Ishmael is that he will be bullied even more if he is seen with James Scobie, this is something that Ishmael wants to avoid.
