The luck part came into play because someone saw what was happening and came to our rescue.

Whenever we saw one of those guys alone in school, they respected us. Its funny how that works.

People hate you for no rational reason and want to beat you. You put up a good fight. Then somehow your friends. You don't talk, but the guy gives you a "what's up, bro" look in the hallway.
Interesting! I got into martial arts because I just needed something to keep me challenged and occupied. I voted the worst scenario is multiple attacks. I find your story interesting because my ideal concept in a scenario of multiple attackers is not to beat them all senseless but to make such an example of the attackers that they lose all taste to continue their pursuit. Entering the martial arts because of a bully problem is not a bad concept, but you must be mindful in your pursuit. You don't want to become the bully you are fighting against as so many have before. Nice Thread!
