When the period ended, I quickly went to math class, Luna was behind me, everyone still in shock from the scene that unfolded, just from a bluff.
When we reached to the door of room 207, mathematics for us, Luna punched me in the nose, and I began to bleed.
I wouldn't let that little (i should say big) charade slide off easily either, so I was expecting it.
When I went to my seat, the teacher asked me, "What happened to you?"
I replied, "Walked into the door of a locker, i wasn't paying attention." and Luna was pretty thankful, I covered for her, and didn't get either of us in trouble.
So we continued class peacefully, and when the bell rang, we left to our lockers. I don't know what Luna did at her locker, but I'll tell you what I did with mine; I ditched my stuff at the bottom, grabbed my coat, locked it, and left to the spot where I was supposed to be with Luna.
I walked peacefully, getting glares, obviously I got popular quickly. No one went near me, or spoke to me, (big deal, but I'm used to it) but everyone went to the side, and prayed silently by the wall, and wiped their faces from sweat as I left their area of negativity.
"Who's next?" I asked eerily, just to tease their nerves.
They cleared the hallway,and I began strutting down the hallway.
When I got outside everyone ran away, so I kept calm, and walked on.
Whenever I got a glimpse of someone, they ran off to the other side of the building, but I ignored them anyway, walking to the trees.
When I noticed Luna she emitted a different type of presence, instead of a friend, she emitted the presence of...
"Rage and hatred?" she asked, reading my mind, I was still getting used to it, so I was a bit scared.
And then I noticed that this was NOT Luna. It was the substitute...
And all I could say was :"What the..?!?!"
Then I was given an uppercut from the substitute. Blood gushed from my mouth. How the...
I received another uppercut, sending me partly into the air. I fell down, unable to finish the previous thought.
I tried to stand up, but when I stood up, I received a blow to the face, turning my face crimson with pain, and blood from my mouth, and I fell on my back.
I grew enraged; Angry with myself for falling for a trick, for not being able to fight a girl! Angry with Luna for backstabbing me, for this happening to me! And angry with my life, why was this the way it will end?
Then I picked myself up, tiredly, and awaited the next blow. It came, and it was harder then the last few, the one way I know; is because I grabbed her hand mid punch, and received some pain.
"You shouldn't enrage a guy with anger issues!!!!" I screamed, I was so enraged, I punched her. Then I punched her again. "This feels good!" I exclaimed, and she stared frightfully, probably knowing the extent of the problem she administrated.
I knocked her to the ground, plummeting her with all my might, my knuckles bleeding fairly well, and hammered her hard with my fists, relentlessly without mercy.
The substitute was going to die of blood loss soon.
And then, in a split second, my mind cleared, emitting "Murder?".
I froze, stopping myself from the finisher.
She looked pale, and I helped her up. I began to feel sorry for her. I brushed her off, and wiped the blood carefully. She was looking better. She could walk, but limply.
"Why did you stop?" she squeaked quietly.
"You aren't worth my time, and I don't want to be charged with murder. So shut up, before I change my mind."
"Thank you, I..." she went for a kiss unexpectedly.
I cringed at the thought, almost dropping her, but a voice stopped her; "Tristan?! What are you thinking? You moron!" that would be Luna, "Why didn't you finish her!"
"I should have what?!?" I was confused, my head was still clearing up, so I didn't understand everything fully.
"She's a changling!" Luna shrieked at me.
I was even more scared and confused of her now. What did she mean?
"Do you love me?" the substitute said lovingly.
Then I dropped her, and kicked her in the face, knocking her out cold.
"You should've shut up! I wasn't joking!" I shouted at her, Luna just stared content of my actions.
"Why didn't you do that sooner?" she asked respectively.
"I kept my word. I told her to shut up, or I'll change my mind from not knocking her out, to cold as ice."
"You are violent." she said seriously, her eyes not leaving the limp body of the teacher.
"Partly because a changling sounds dangerous, so I wanted to make her think she was annoying, not a threat."
"What?"
"Strategy, timing, reasons." I said smartly, "Those were the elements I distributed: strategy: the fight, to keep myself alive, the keeping her alive, wanted some answers, and the finish, because I wanted to talk; timing: everything I mentioned; and the reasons: what you said about her being a changeling, whatever that is, her trying to beat me to a pulp, and because she messed with the wrong guy."
"You lost me at the beginning." I stared angrily at her. "So let's bring her in to the office." Luna said boringly.
We agreed to bring her in, and rushed inside, I was giving the teacher a piggy-back ride, and Luna went farther than me to open doors.
We dropped her off at the office, explained how she was mugged on the streets and we saw her lying there in street.
After that, we left to the previous spot by the tree. And Luna began to tell me the truth...
