As soon as Mal had been dragged back with the scary stranger lady she continued to scream and cry for her big sister. She didn't want to be in the scary building with all the scary kids that she didn't even know. She wanted Evie.

  The daycare lady just sighed as she tried to calm the toddler down. She was used to children reacting this way as they usually didn't like to be away from their parents, but they usually calmed down by now after they saw all the toys and the other children. Mal didn't calm though and she seemed to be getting more and more upset.

  She didn't know what to do as she couldn't seem to calm the child and it was causing the other children to grow upset as well as they didn't like the screaming.

  "Mommy make her stop. It hurts my ears. I don't like it. Why won't she stop screaming?" The young four year old daughter of the day care worker asked her mom in annoyance as she didn't like all the screaming from the younger girl and it was causing the others to get mad at her since it was her mom that wasn't able to calm the screaming toddler. And it was her job as the "leader" of the other kids to stop it.

   The mother just sighed as she continued to bounce the screaming toddler. "I know baby. I don't like the screaming either. But she's younger than you. I'm sure she's just upset right now since I don't think she's used to being left without her parents and she's probably just scared. She should calm down soon though," the lady told her daughter as she saw how irritated the other kids were getting and she was hoping to stop anything from escalating.

    She sighed in relief when she noticed the tiny toddler start to calm as she tried to reach for the purple puppy stuffed animal that caught her eye. The lady knew that it belonged to her daughter and figured her daughter could share for a little bit especially since she wasn't using it. She picked it up from the floor as she handed it to the small girl and smiled in relief when she stopped crying and hugged onto the toy as she giggled. "Pupwl dowy," the small girl screamed in happiness as she cuddled with the toy.

    The lady just smiled as she placed the tiny toddler on the ground with the other kids once she was sure that Mal had finally calmed down. And walked off to go check on some of the other kids. When the four year old "leader" noticed the younger girl who was sitting away from the other kids playing quietly with the purple dog stuffed animal as she was afraid of the other kids. The older girl began to walk towards her with her "posey" as she saw her with her puppy toy and she was angry.

     "Hey you little baby. That's mine you can't just take it. And I don't like you. All you do is scream and cry for attention. She's my mommy not yours," the older girl told the toddler with venom in her voice as she pushed her on the ground and tried to take the toy back.

     Mal just looked at the girl who pushed her as she began to cry. The other kids got angry again as the toddler started to cry again. "Ugh stop crying you stupid cry baby. And I bet that you don't even have a mommy or daddy because my mommy says that you are evil. You don't belong here. And stop trying to take Amber's mommy and her things," one of the other four year old kids told the toddler as she "backed up" her "leader."

      "Weabe me awone. I no wanna be hewr. I wan Ebie. You meanies you huw me pwease no mowr," the tiny toddler cried out as she was terrified and the other kids were so much older and bigger than her as they towered over her and began to taunt her.

       "Oh look at the wittle baby crying. I bet she's crying for her mommy that she doesn't have," the older girl told the others in her mock baby voice as she continued to mess with the small crying girl.

     Everyone at the daycare saw the daycare worker's daughter as their leader and they looked up to her as her mom had all the "power" as the one in charge. The other kids just did exactly what she told them to do.

   The screaming caused all the other kids to crowd around the tiny scared toddler as they all joined in on making fun of her trying to impress their leader.

    Everyone except for one girl who was almost five and didn't look up to the "leader" of the daycare as she thought that the girl was mean and didn't like how she treated the other kids especially the ones younger and smaller then her. And especially with what she was seeing in front of her. She had enough she was sick of Amber getting away with everything and bullying all the younger kids.

     Amber had gone way too far this time. She was bullying a kid who was almost three years younger then her and who was practically a baby. She wasn't going to just sit there and let her get away with it. She felt bad for the tiny defenseless toddler and wanted to help her.

    She walked over to the leader and her posey that was torturing the poor toddler. "Hey what is your problem Amber? Leave her alone you are more than twice her size and at least twice her age. And she isn't hurting you. I'm sick of you getting away with bullying and controlling everyone. You don't run this place. And you guys don't need to follow what she says. What you guys are doing is bad," the older girl told the mean girl and her posey as she pushed them all to the ground and laughed when the "tough" leader ran to her mommy crying. Then she walked to the tiny crying toddler as she helped her up.

    "Hey it's okay. I know she's mean and she thinks she runs this place, but she doesn't. Don't worry I don't think you're evil you're adorable.  Come on you can play with me. I won't let those mean girls bully you anymore. They think they are tough, but they are not. I'm tougher than them and I will hurt them again if they keep messing with you or anyone else. Hey we should be friends. I promise I will protect you and no one will mess with you if you're friends with me. I'm Olivia and I'm almost five. What about you?" the older girl told the toddler as she tried to make her feel better.

     "I Mal an I dis many," the young toddler told the older girl as she held up two fingers. She wasn't crying anymore as she felt safe with the older girl who had saved her from the mean scary big kids.

      The older girl smiled at the toddler as she thought the tiny girl was adorable even though she was only about three years younger than her. The happy feeling was stopped when she saw Amber and her mom approaching the two of them. Amber was crying while holding her angry mom's hand.

       "Mommy Olivia hurt me. And Mal helped. Olivia pushed me on the ground and Mal said mean things to me when I was trying to play nicely with her. I want them in time out," the bratty young girl told her mom as she tried to get the young toddler and the nice girl who helped her in trouble.

         The daycare worker just looked at the two girls in anger. "Is this true. Were you two bullying my sweet Amber? We have a no bullying rule at this daycare and that behavior will not be tolerated," the angry lady told the two innocent kids as she believed everything her spoiled daughter had told her.

       "That's not fair. We didn't do anything wrong. It was Amber she was pushing Mal on the ground and bullying her. I pushed Amber to save Mal. We didn't do anything wrong. And Mal was the one being bullied not Amber," Olivia screamed at the daycare worker as she didn't want to get in trouble for something she didn't do. She was sick of Amber bullying kids and then changing it to make it seem like that kid was bullying her.

        Amber just got angry at the slightly older girl as she tackled her to the ground. "STOP LYING! YOU'RE A BULLY! AND SO IS SHE," Amber screamed as she began to fight with her. "ME? YOU'RE THE ONE WHO WAS PICKING ON A BABY!" the older girl screamed back as she continued to fight the girl.

  Mal didn't like the fighting and tried to stop it, but ended up being pulled into it by Amber who had grabbed the small girl and began to try and hurt her too, but was stopped by her mom. Who had managed to finally break up the fight. As she picked up the crying and scared toddler who had been trying to stay out of the fight, but was forced in by Amber.

  "That's it. I'm calling your parents Olivia. Mal I'm calling your sister. We are going to have a meeting with all three of us because this is unacceptable. Including you Amber I am very disappointed in you. I taught you better then to act like that," the angry mother told the three girls as she began to grab the phone to call the parents/ guardians of the two other girls.

    The three girls just sat away from the other kids as they were in trouble. "This isn't fair, this is all your fault Amber. You should be the only one in trouble right now. Mal didn't do anything in fact she was the victim here and I didn't do anything I was just protecting her," Olivia told the mean girl in anger as she didn't think it was fair for them all to be in trouble when they did nothing wrong. Amber had bullied a two year old and then attacked her.

  "Well we wouldn't even be in this situation if she would have just stopped crying and trying to steal all my things. And if you would just learn that I'm in charge and you follow me. I'm the leader," Amber told the two girls in an angry voice as she hated being in trouble.

  While Mal just watched the two older girls fight with each other she just stayed silent as she cried. She honestly didn't care if her sister came. In fact that's exactly what she wanted. She wanted Evie to come back and take her away and she wanted to never come back again. She hated it here. The kids were all mean to her and the mean scary lady was even more meaner now. Plus she just wanted her big sister to care for her and protect her. Sure she had Olivia to protect her, but it wasn't the same as when her big sister protected her.
