Ishmael Sydrome was the name that Ishamael's parents named him from the first day that he was born. He was a fourteen years old boy. At the first day of school, he got bullied by a bully named Barry because of his name. Barry teased him everytime at school however, Ishmael tried to avoid Barry and acted invisible but swears to stand up to Barry in Year Nine. His Year Nine teacher, Miss Tarango, tells the whole class about the name Ishmael coming from Moby-Dick, which gives Barry and his friends more names to tease Ishmael with. One day, Ishmael saw Barry and other boys were bullying a new boy named James Scoobie because of his appearance. However, James stood up on them and told the entire class community that that he is fearless because he had a brain tumour that damaged the part of his brain that feels fear. Barry is the only person that does not believe James. About a week later Barry puts a lot of insects and spiders in James's desk, but James is not frightened. During a rugby match James's fearlessness changes the course of the game. Sooner, James and Ishmael became close friends :) This story was really interesting and awesome to be read. It helped me to learn a really immortal moral: When we get bullying, we should always stand up and fight against them.
