~Max's POV~
New school is quiet the same as old one but the student seems more excited here... Almost.
Bell rang and signaling the class to be end nd I got up as was very hungry still had to figure out where is this cafeteria....
I was walking in the hallway when I saw two senior students were bullying a student, he seems familiar than recalled I saw him earlier in the class ..... I walked there ..
The boy from my class was on floor nd the bully boys seems furious nd about to punch him but I immediately stand in between them covering the boy behind my back nd chuckle
" Well well guyss... I thought bullying is not allowed here ... Nd you would get in trouble if principal knew about it .... "
I just wanted thus matter to pass on with 'talking '
But both senior boys got furious seeing me intrupting them and they both laughed at my words, their taunts growing more aggressive. "Mind your own business, newbie," *one of them snarled.* "This doesn't concern you."
I sigh and shake my head in disbelief.... mybe i was wrong to settle with just 'talk ' I chuckled hearing them " I was just advising you guys..."
The boys look at each other and nod nd one of them move to punch him nd but I dodge easily nd grab his wrist nd twist it behind his back causing him whin in pain. Hahh such a childish move ....
I said in calm voice" tsk tsk. ... I just wanted to be friends dude"
The bully's face contorted in pain as I twisted his arm behind his back. The other bully took a step forward, I was ready to handle him too as he was using childish mathodes to fight but a cold voice cut through the air.
"Enough."
Max look up at the voice , It was the boy from his class his deep hazel eyes stud and composed can be identified easily and his aura was dark, the other boy who was being bullied said " Aron ... "
I murmured "Aron .... " than i saw he was moving silently, positioning himself directly in front of the second bully. His piercing gaze was enough to halt the boy in his tracks. His presence was imposing, a silent threat that needed no further explanation.*
*The first bully, still held by me, whimpered and begged his friend to help. But the second bully hesitated, clearly intimidated by Aron's unyielding stare.*
*Aron's eyes flicked to me, taking in the scene with a detached curiosity.* "You're causing a scene," *he commented flatly.* "Let him go."
His tone wasn't a request; it was an order. He didn't care about the bullying or anything
I scoff nd ready for so many comebacks but he was right so I release him nd rise both hand in air "fair enough...*
The bully I had been holding yelped in pain as he was released, quickly scrambling to his feet. He shot a hateful glare at me before backing away with his friend, muttering threats under his breath.
How childish , I scoff and look back at the boy Than I looked at the boy on floor and helped the him getting up " hey buddy u alright?" I patted his shoulder trying to ease the heavy atmosphere "I am Max ...whats ur name ? "
he was timid-looking, wearing glasses and stammered "I-I'm Kenji" *he said quietly.*
I saw Aron's eyes narrowed. I could see he was irritated but ... then he could move away ,what he was doing here...
he said like he was least interested " You're wasting your time," *he said, his voice flat.* "He'll just get bullied again."
I looked at him and raise my eyebrows -like seriously bro all of the words he chose these to say in a situation like this.... But I looked back to kenji " well then my friend u can ask me ....we will complaint about it ohk ...* I chuckle to lighten the tension "Now come on, show me around the school ...."
Kenji's eyes widened with gratitude and a hint of disbelief. He nodded quickly, a small smile forming on his lips."Okay... thank you, Max."
I was happy that he was feeling relaxed now and we both headed to
I grinned and clapped Kenji on the back. "Great! Let's get going then. "
I walk beside Kenji as he starts showing me around the school. He points out different classrooms and facilities, explaining what happens where. I listen closely, nodding along, asking questions whenever something sounds interesting.
I crack a few jokes along the way, and Kenji laughs-kind of nervous, but real. It makes the walk feel less awkward.
I notice Aron walking behind us, keeping a bit of distance.
He doesn't look like he's following us. Not really.
