WELL WHAT HAPPEND IS I BENT THE SHIFTER TOO CLOSE TO THE CRANK CASE, SO WHEN I TRIED TO SHIFT IT UP, IT WOULD HIT THE CRANK CASE(IT WAS PUSHED IN TOO CLOSE) SO, SIMPLY TOOK IT OFF, AND BENT THE SHIFTER BACK TO SHAPE.

OK there are some things you should not admit to. That would have been one of them. And beleive me, you don't need any tools to bend your shifter back, just use your hands. That metal is soft, and I'm guessing it was made that way for a reason. My boy crashes often and the shifter bends everytime. If it didn't the shift rod would. So next time if you don't have any tools with you, lay you bike down and put one foot on each tire and pull your shifter back out.
Have fun and keep crashing
