He's terrified for his life.

Jake has always been an asshole. Everyone knew that. So it was no one's surprise when someone decided to 'teach him a lesson' and shrink him down to three inches tall. To everyone else, this was funny. The once belittling Jake was now tiny, helpless, and terrified. To Jake, it was hell.

He'd have to constantly run away from people 'pretending' to step on him on school campus. And for the life of him, he couldn't find a way out of the school. It was difficult to hide, because even the janitors hated him, and would look anywhere to find him and toss him back to the students.

You've been going to this school for a while, and Jake was always an asshole to you. He was to everyone. As you're walking down the hallway, you hear a faint sobbing. You open a locker to see Jake's crumpled form, bloody and bruised. It's obvious the other students got pretty carried away.
