In addition to being afraid of the dark, carrying a guinea pig in his backpack, and stuffing his pockets full of dandelions and rocks, Virgil had another secret: he weighed only seventy-six pounds, and even though he pretended to be five feet tall, he was actually four foot eleven.
Virgil wasn’t sure how much the Bull weighed or how tall he was, but he certainly weighed more than seventy-six pounds.
“You really are stupid, huh?” the Bull said. His eyes shifted to Virgil’s backpack.
Chet took a step forward and Virgil took a step back, which the Bull thought was hilarious, because he immediately broke into peals of laughter before ripping Virgil’s backpack off his shoulders with such force that Virgil spun – actually spun – and hit the ground with a numbing whack that shot from the palms of his hands to his shoulders. The Bull took off like a bullet; Virgil pushed himself up and ran after him, saying, “No! No! No!” in the loudest voice he could manage without choking.
“Gulliver! Gulliver!” he cried. Or maybe he only said it in his head. He wasn’t sure.

The Bull darted between the trees, not laughing anymore, just running with Virgil’s backpack in his hands. A million horrifying images blazed through Virgil’s mind – the Bull tearing Gulliver in two, feeding him to a pit of lions, picking him up and tossing him into the trees – which is why he didn’t feel any better when the Bull finally stopped running and turned to face him, his cheeks flushed and his neck and hairline glistening. Virgil waited for him to open the backpack, discover Gulliver, and destroy him. Instead the Bull took a giant step back, grinned evilly, and turned toward a stumpy circle of stones that Virgil had never noticed before.
It was an old well.
With two hefty shoves, the Bull pushed the cover of the well aside and dangled the backpack over the now-open hole.
“Say bye-bye to your stuff, stupid,” he said.
The bull let go, and the bag fell into the dark, gaping well, so far down that Virgil didn’t even hear it land.
“Guess you’ll have to get new books, weakling,” the Bull said, his smile widening. “Not that you need them anyway, since you probably don’t know how to read.”
The Bull wiped his hands on the front of his jeans as if he’d just finished a dirty, dirty deed – which he had.
