Description
Mary was enjoying herself today. Her first class sorta went well and even made a few friends. She just felt very happy today. Though someone had noticed her cheerful behaviour and hated it. A wyngling called Cynda. He sneered at the green gal. He couldnt stand seeing someone in such a happy mood, it irritated him to the bone. While her friends went ahead was when he stood from his spot and made his assault.
"HEY!" Cynda yelled, startling poor Mary. Staring with a very shocked look she turned only to be rammed by his head into her side, making her easily tumble to the ground. "You think your so cool with all your friends?! Your nothing but a pathetic little girl!" Mary's head hurt, alot. She didn't understand why she was being attacked all of the sudden. "Answer me you imp inbred!" He shoved her face to the floor with his paw aggressively.
"I-im sorry! I don't know what i did wrong! Please!" Mary begged. Cynda's grin grew wide, amused with the reaction he was getting from her. Which was exactly what he wanted. Her friends who were scared and shocked ended up running off to try and get some help.
Sponsor Me Tape was just dropped off at the nook by his family, he looked a bit gloomy, or was probably just tired. He watched the front door close as his family left to go about their own business. With a sigh he started to head for class only to see a few scared wynglings rush by looking like they were searching for help. He heard one say "someone please save Mary!" Before they got too far away. He didn't seem bothered, though he noticed they were coming from the direction where classes were held at.
Tape approached calmly til he saw what the commotion was about. One of them bloom tailed wynglings was picking on a helpless gal. Saying alot of mean words that made her cry. Normally this wouldn't set him off but then the bully started to hit the green one when she wasnt responding the way he wanted. Mary yelped and cowered under her hat, sobbing even more now as her little body shook with fear. This on the other hand, definitely set him off.
"No one is here to help you. Cause none of them cared!! See?? Your 'friends' saved their own tails! Your just as unloved as the rest of us! So get used to it! No one-" Cynda didn't finish as Tape practically tackled him away from Mary.
Mary was speechless, she peeked from her hat and watched as Tape whaled on Cynda with his claws. Pounding him just like he did to Mary. Used his claws to scratch Cynda up a bit. The bully was not expecting anyone to intervene, and was overwhelmed by Tape's relentless attacks. He looked ticked off after seeing someone get hurt for no valid reason.
Watching what had unfolded before her Mary felt different about this blue wyngling. Normally she was fine being around or meeting any wyngling in the nook, but this one caused her heart to feel different. She couldn't explain it, mostly cause she didnt understand it either. She had read a romance book once, but never thought about it herself or applied it to her own life as she wasn't a very love stuck kind of person. She generally enjoyed being in anyone's company. Was this what it was like to feel that way toward someone? Mary was clueless, she was just glad the bully was finally off of her. That, and how he was getting what he deserved ten fold.
"Enough!" Alma shouts as she was practically dragged away from her duties by Mary's friends once she arrived on the scene. Cynda had finally shoved Tape away with his back claws, both staring daggers and growling at one another before Cynda was snatched up by Alma. He looked pretty beat up than he was moments ago "what's the meaning of this? Explain yourselves!" She demanded
"This isn't over! Im not done with you, you little brat! And you!" Cynda yelled, completely ignoring Alma as his eyes burned with anger at Tape "I'm definitely not done with you! You got lucky this time, but not next time ya hear!" Alma hushed Cynda and gave him to another adult to tend to as she turned her gaze back to Tape. She looked rather upset. Tape just huffs a snort toward Cynda before his head faces the ground, ready for punishment.
"Wait!" Mary finally called out just before Alma could speak. This caught Alma by surprise. If Tape was surprised, he was really good at not showing it, he just looked toward Mary. She maneuvered away from her friends who were talking over one another making sure she was ok and moved up by Tape. "Please Alma, don't be upset at him. He saved me from the other wyngling, they started it first!" She plead. Her friends chipped in, proving what she said was true.
Alma was in deep thought for a moment before sighing "ive got better things to do at this moment. But your family will hear about this." She warned before she excused herself.
Tape had a flashed expression but it was quickly masked before Mary could notice. Mary, feeling extremely paranoid now, told her friends she would catch up with them later before turning back to Tape.
"U-um...would it be ok...if we hung out for a bit? J-just in case he comes back.." Mary trailed off, she was rather anxious now. She never had too much trouble talking to others, but with him she felt chocked up in her words. Her mind was still playing over all the many things Cynda had said to her and her face and body still rather hurt. Tape just stared at her a bit, before giving her a simple nod as he started to walk off to class, Mary followed behind greatfully.
Another class had started, one Mary wasnt scheduled to attend but after talking to Alice, she was convinced to stay. She sat beside Tape's decks, peeking up to watch what he was doing with interest, while not trying to be much of a distraction. Mary wanted to get to know her savior, but she had noticed how little he talked, would he even be willing to talk to her, let alone be friends? It seemed farfetched, but Mary was gonna try! Names should be a good start.
She took a deep breath "My name..is Marilyn Jane, Mary is fine though...can..i know yours?" She said hesitantly while glancing over at him from his work. There was a decent pause, Mary thought for a second he was just going to ignore her. Then he finally spoke.
"Call me Tape." He said simply. Tape her mind repeated. It was simple enough to remember. At least he wasn't a total mute it would seem. Mary wondered why he doesn't talk so much, does he not have any friends? She waited patiently for a while, secretly remembering every detail on him so she wouldn't forget what he looked like.
"Thanks by the way...for earlier i mean." She spoke hesitantly, hoping not to get under Tape's skin, that's the last thing she would want. She stared at the ground a bit while he glanced at her, thinking of a responce.
"No problem Mary." Tape said, turning over a page to continue his work. Mary's ears perked. Tape said her name, that has to be a first step in a good direction! She smiled happily as her nub tail thumped the floor continuously. She stopped immediately when Alice spoke up and told her its disrupting the class. Mary spent the rest of her time with Tape in silence, watching him do work with interest and curiosity.
After his classes were finished he wandered back to the nook's entrance, Mary followed behind. She was slightly disappointed that Tape didn't also live in the nook like she did. So it was sad to see him leave. Standing a few feet away from the door Mary swallowed hard, thinking on what to say.
"So i guess this is goodbye huh? Thank you for letting me hang around with you in class." She said while scratching her neck. The entrance door opened, startling the two of them as Alma stepped in, looking worn out from the day and a little irritated whom ever she was talking to. Tape didnt get the chance to respond.
"Your family's here Tape, best get going." She responded flatly, glancing outside. Mary was more upset that she couldn't finish talking to him. Tape turned to leave but Mary jumped up, touching Tape's shoulder. "W-wait!" She sputtered. "W-we should hang out again sometime. Can we?" He glanced directly at Mary, seeing his slightly surprised look only shown through his eyes for a second. Seeing how they made direct eye contact made her cheeks burn red suddenly out of no where before she realised she had her claws on his shoulder. Mary gasped and quickly removed her claw, but still looked at him for a response.
"Boy, we are leaving, NOW!" One of his family members hollered, a female it seemed to Mary. Was that his mother? Tape looked like he was about to say something but flinched when his aunt spoke, he looked at Mary one last time then left without another word.
Mary was a little hurt she didn't get a response out of him but now she was a bit worried about how they would react to earlier. She hoped he wasnt going to be in trouble for saving her. Would he hate and blame her for it? Mary definitely hoped it wouldn't come to that.
Quickly Mary climbed to the nearest window and watched him go home with his family. She tapped the window a few times to get his attention before lifting it open and waving goodbye. She couldnt tell if he noticed or looked back but regardless she kept waving til she knew he wouldnt be able to see her anymore.
What a day, hopefully Mary wont be running into Cynda anytime soon. With a yawn Mary decided it was time to find a place for a nap before dinner and waddled off.
