Not really a fight story...
but back in high school I befriended this loaner who came from a small town.
A couple of months earlier I had got beaten like a dog by 4 guys (from another high school) who thought I was cocky (I was cocky, but I was standing up for a friend who they were making fun of... the friend I stood up for sat on the street curb and just watched as I was punched, kicked, and stomped in the street).
Anyway, I become friends with this kid from a small town at high school.
One day he and I are at the YMCA sitting on these chairs that look out this window over the swimming pool there. A whole bunch of guys from this other high school come walking up and I'm a bit nervous... one guy in their group is a total asskicker (Dave). I say to my friend "Just ignore them and they'll leave us alone". Some of the guys in the group were guys that had just beat me a few months earlier.
So they come walking up and this tough dude in the group says (about us) "look at the *explicit word that starts with F and ends with G*".
My friend stands up and says "we're the Fs... we're not the ones being tailed by 7 butt buddies". (Dave had 7 of his friends just following behind him).
Dave comes storming over and gets chest to chest with my friend. He looks at me and then back to my friend and says "I don't know who you are... but I know who he is (points to me).... so I'll fill you in. I'm the guy you don't f around with. I'm the guy who if you're not scared now I'll give you a reason to be scared of".
My friend says, "it's funny you mention being scared.... because I'm scared of a lot of things: little puppies....butterflies.... but for some reason you just don't do it for me."
Dave looks confused for a moment and then just starts telling my friend what he's going to do to him.... drag him down the stairs, stomp him into the blacktop, ... on and on.
My friend just stands there and lets him finish. Then my friend says, "Everything you just said to me.... I want you to think of how hard it will be for you to say tomorrow when your jaws wired shut."
It spooked Dave out. Dave was a bigger guy.... got in many fights. But the confidence of Colin just made him wilt. Dave stared for alittle bit and then said "I'll remember you" and walked away. Nothing ever happened.
