Chapter 89 -- Damian Delilah Mallory and Polly: School Showdown

Date: Friday  March 2041

The day started off calm at
Harley PHigh. DJ and Damali 
Had two classes scheduled 
Together. They had one class
Together at 1 afternoon. That
Was the last class before final
Dismissal. One class was over 
They had gym Together also.
So the progression of the day 
Was without 
Much aggression. DJ met
Some Solomon Brothers in the
Hall they presented the Hakim 
Family Handshake he was taught.
Then DJ saw Damali talking to 
A female student in the cafeteria 
Nothing was out of the ordinary. So far
DJ  started in Damali's direction.
Oh wait he took two more steps 
And found himself surrounded. 
Oh damn, the Solomon Brothers 
Rose up. It's about to go down
In a bad way."  They were here!
THE BLACK CHINA MEN!  Chu
Lang pushed Damian. Damali 
Ceased his relation because 
Damian was in trouble. And
The big bloody brawl began. 
The cops were called. DJ was 
fighting bravely punching and
Stomping one kid. The cops were
On the premises Oh those
Nemesis. Somebody snatched 
DJ by his shirt and said, "Let's 
Go. Come on!" Damali! DJ Was 
Glad he came to his rescue.
The officials dismissed school
Early. The remainder of the 
classes were canceled. The
Solomon Brothers approached
The exit ready to leave. Bad news. 
There was a persistent presence.
Ready to ambush the Solomon 
On the school grounds. Damali 
Was loosing his mind. He said
Curses DJ had never heard. 
"Damali!!" DJ said "come on brother." 
"Don't loose it!!" We have to call my
Father. DJ quickly whipped out
His phone. Dad!! The Black China 
Men attacked us!! They're 
Waiting outside on school grounds 
For us!! Damian said, "Okay calm
Down DJ. We will be there with the 
Quickness. Stay inside the 
School." 

Meanwhile Dolly and Molly were
Busy mingling With their old 
Friend Polly. They had no idea
That the kids were in trouble.
Damian called Dolly and Molly
And said, "Come home. Our
Kids are in trouble." Then put 
The phone away. They brought 
Polly back to the house with 
Them. To wait for The family to
Return home. Good news: the
Cops also returned  at the
Same time CJ and Damian 
Arrived. DJ Damali and some
Other Hakims flooded the yard.
DJ and Damali were grateful for
Their fathers' presence. Black
China Men were disembarking
In the background at the sight of
The cops. CJ and Damian entered 
The empty school and spoke to
The principal and the Dean. They
Assured the fathers that the 
Gang members responsible for
The incident would be expelled.
Damian CJ and the kids arrived 
Home safe. Dolly and Molly were
Concerned. "Molly asked, "These
People that attacked you, were
The same folks you were allied
With?" Damali said, "YEAH AUNTIE!!
and they know where we live!!.
We.... we gave the leader this
Address when we thought they'd be
Allies."  Then Greatgrand involved 
Himself in the perceived potentially
Explosive situation. Damali's 
Phone rang. "Hello. Who's this?
"Yeah well you attacked us now
My whole family..." Damian 
Snatched Damali's phone from
His hand."  Let me tell you 
Messing with Hakim family is
The ultimate bad idea."  But there
Was just a 16 year old kid on the 
Other end. He tried to explain to
Damian the brawl was All 
Chu Lang's fault.  
That they were
Very sorry for the trouble they
Caused and they wanted to meet.
Somewhere and discuss the
Promised alliance."   Damian 
Assured the kid on the other end
That he understood. And he 
Wanted to talk an alliance." 
After Damian was done on the
Phone. He addressed the family.
"Family we have a small incident.
Here that needs attention. We're 
Going to have to form an 
Alliance with these children a 
Partnership to prevent them
From attacking our family." 
I made an Appointment with these
Black China Men for tomorrow 
Morning. So our kids can feel 
Safe attending school."  He
Turn to Damali and DJ Saying 
Once we have this friendship 
That's exactly how you should 
Treat it asap, friendship. A
Partnership. Alliance. Even 
Invite them to barbecues in the
Coming future so that we can
Avoid being viewed as a threat."
And let them know who you are
Hakim Brothers. We should invite 
Them To a celebration with us
so   they can 
Meet some family members. 
We don't want To fight. DJ 
Damali. No more fight. Alright?"
The Solomon Brothers cheered
With relief. 
Polly sat on a sofa in the large
Family room watching the 
Activities. Polly approached Dolly
In the kitchen, "Woo, it's exciting 
Being here with all these gangsters."
"Woo your family."
