Private Finished Bitter Blood

Saber · Oct 12, 2019

Nathan had been out three weeks, long enough to hear about all the madness, long enough to move into his dorm, long enough for him to start classes, and long enough for the unpleasantness to start. Like today for example, it was cloudy all day, so he'd been able to go outside, buy a few things and start walking home. It was then that the unpleasantness hit.

He'd been sipping a blood pack when the other students appeared, one sprouting a claw and quickly slicing the pack open. The life giving fluid spilling onto his shirt. His eyes briefly glowed with anger, his anger management lessons kicking in. "Just....piss off...," he'd say, wanting to hit them, but controlling himself.

Soon the small group were mocking him, insulting him, bring up his parents. Today had quickly gone from bearable to complete garbage.

"Hey! What do you knuckle heads think your doing?" cried out Amber, her many feet angerly clacking on the solid ground as she comes face to face with Nathan's bullies.

"Hey hey hey... chill girlfriend. Just having some fun with my friend here." sneared the boy as the bloodied call retracts, playing it off like he was just messing around.

"Okey first... I am so not your girlfriend. Second... what you did didn't look all that friendly." retorted Amber, standing on her tippy toes so that she can match the height of the tormentor.

"Heh... well maybe if you just get to know you could be my-" before the boy with the claw could finish, his buddy nerviously interjects.

"Uhh... dude. You know who this chick is right?"

"Should I?" growled the boy with the claw as he turned to his lackey

"Errr... she was vice principle of the student council... and her mom is the head of the DSU..." spoke the lackey in a hushed tone

"Also aunt is the CEO of a modeling who punches planets for fun. Now are we all going to be good friends now and behave?" piped up Amber, crossing her arms as the two boys conversed with each other. She couldn't help but smirk as she could see the "oh shit" moment stricken him like a divine thunderbolt of Thor.

"Tch... whatever. Come on boys. We are done here." grunted the boy, trying to sound tough to save face even in clear retreat.\

Amber continued to stare down the gang of boys until they are finally out of sight. She let out a content sigh of relief, before turning to Nathan with friendly smile as if she was meeting with a new friend.

"Hey there, I'm sorry you had to deal with that. Almost everyone here is is super nice but... there are also few dunderheads that has to ruin it for everyone. Anyway, my name is Amber Black. Do you need help cleaning up? I have a few napkins in my back-up that can help." offered Amber, already reaching into her backpack to pull out some napkins for the boy.

Then the spider girl appeared, and Nathan would look at her curiously as she berated the group of bullies. This was certainly not what he'd expected, no other student had tried anything like that. The young vampire would raise an eyebrow at the girl as the bullies ran off, he was both confused and intrigued.

"'Knuckle heads,' do people even say that anymore?" he'd ask, looking her over curiously, before shaking his head, "nah it won't help with blood." To make things worse the shirt was white, "I'll soak it in some cold water when I get home."

The vampire would slip his jacket off. "So uh.......why'd you do that?" he'd ask, still looking grumpy, but a little less so. "Those guys were a lot bigger than you," he'd pull the bloodied t-shirt off, wadding it up, and adjusting the long sleeve shirt he'd been wearing underneath.

Pallas · Oct 14, 2019

"Well, I just did so I guess so~" humored Amber in response to him asking about people still using the word knucklehead. That comment soon lead to her to suspect that he was perhaps one of those new DCA students he has been hearing about.

"Hrmm? Why I helped? Well had to stand up and speak out. I mean, we have to look out for each other. And if they tried anything... well they would have really regretted it." replied Amber as she watched Nathan slip out of his bloodied shirt. She was almost about to say something about maybe changing out of the locker rooms but surprise he was wearing clothes under the bloodied shirt.

"Oh well... I see you came preferred. I hope this isn't something they do to you often. Not that they should be doing it at all."

Saber · Oct 15, 2019

He'd tilt his head, looking at her with a raised eyebrow when she said they had to stand up for each other. "Uhuh.....," he was guessing she didn't know who he was for one reason or another. "Well....they ran off at least."

"Eh...," he'd hang his coat on a bench, "few ruined shirts isn't really anything to worry about." He'd brush some drops of blood from his pants, grunting a little in frustration. "Nothing that cant be replaced," he was angry, but he wanted to control said anger.

"So...uh...," he'd look at her, "who are you?" He'd heard one of the bullies say she was the daughter of the DSU head.

Pallas · Oct 16, 2019

"Forgot my name already?" giggled Amber "Hee hee... first name is Amber. Last name is Black. So Amber Black if you want to be formal. And the DSU head they were talking about is my mom Chloe Black."

"Anyway, they still shouldn't not have done what they did. But like you said, they at least had the sense to leave. So who are you by the way? And why where those guys trying to mess with you?" inquired the spider girl, trying to investigate if there was any reason for those boys to pick on the boy she is speaking too.

Saber · Oct 16, 2019

"Amber right," he'd say, scratching at his, wondering if the spider girl knew of his reputation. "I'm Nathan, Nathan Wright," not everyone remembered him, even if what happened had been in the news.

"Uh....well...," he'd shrug, "they do what they do, one of them was actually my friend at one point." He'd pick up the torn blood pack from the ground, tossing it into a nearby trashcan. "Can't keep everyone happy I guess."

He'd look at the blood on his hands and back to the girl. "The offer of napkins still up?" if they were he'd accept them, using them to wipe off his hands. "Anyways......I just got back to school...been away for a while, so yeah, lots to catch up on."

Pallas · Oct 16, 2019

"Really?! They were a friend of your's once?" exclaimed Amber, baffled as how a friend could treat Nathan so poorly. But then that must be why they are former friends.

"Yeah I still have the napkins. Here you go. Use as many as you need." replied Amber as she hands over the napkins. Upon handing over the goods, Amber thought now was a good moment to ask a nagging question on her mind "Are you one of those Dark Crystal Students that have been in the news lately?"

Saber · Oct 16, 2019

"Yup," he'd say, his grumpy face showing a bit of sadness show through for a brief moment. "About a year ago, we....drifted apart after that," that was an understatement, they'd turned him and then abandoned him to the consequences. "Guess that's just life sometimes....the assholes even ruined my lunch."

He'd shake his head head. "Nah, just been away for a year......being frozen and erased from reality sounds a bit worse than that." He'd glance around, surprised she didn't react to his name, he partly wondered if it was part of some big trick or something like that.

"So...uh....vice president? And daughter of the DSU head?" it was definitely strange that she didn't know. "Anyways.....uh....thanks," he was a little confused by it all, but not terribly so.

Pallas · Oct 16, 2019

"Former, vice president actually. I had a good run but it was a bit exhausting so I didn't want to run for the last election. And my mom has been the leader of the Demonic Student Union before I was even born~ But yeah, you welcome welcome! I just want to help out people where I can. I just can't stand around and let bullying just happen. Maybe they could get away with it at Dark Crystal but not here. Not at my school. Well since they ruined your lunch, why don't I help make it up to you and get something for you so that you don't go to your next class hungry?" offered Amber.

She knows that she helped Nathan more than enough but she wanted to make sure that Nathan knew that there were good people whom would look out for him. That and nobody should go to class hungry.
