@freedomwriter76 aww Angelina XD!! @wilder-w
Grimm
Grimm chuckled. “Ah, she’s fine,” He turned to the siblings. “I…I do like Jocelyn…” His pale skin flushed a slight pink. “Love Jocelyn, actually.”
Angelina’s eyes grew wide. “Really?!”
Grimm shrugged, and then nodded. “We’ve known each other since third grade. Started out as friends of course, though she’ll tell you otherwise I’m sure,” he smiled. “She’s…something. That’s for sure. A firecracker. But…that’s what I signed up for.”
Riker and Leon chuckled.
“She…ah…helped me through a rough patch a couple years ago…” He swallowed, remembering all that time ago. “I think that made me realize how much I…really needed her.”
They were silent for a minute until they reached the door, and Grimm looked up, realizing he’d said all of that out loud. He purses his lips, blushing wildly. He looked away. They all laughed.
“Do not tell Nyx I told you any of that,” he sighed, as they entered the classroom.
Arabella
“Here’s our class,” Joshua opened the door, letting everyone shuffle in. Ara thanked him.
She stumbled slightly, bumping into Paxton, who had stopped suddenly. She looked at him. His eyes had gone wide, and his face paler then usual.
“Paxton..? What’s wrong-“ She looked up and her own eyes widened slightly at the sight of Aramis Fallon in the backrow.
The rest of the class was full…the only available seats…were next to him…
Ara watched the young man as he caught sight of the little boy, and flashed a smile at him.
“Paxton!” He cried, and waved the boy over.
Paxton didn’t move, gripping his shirt front. Aramis’ look turned malicious. He sat up in his chair, staring harder.
“I said, come here.”
Paxton glanced up at Ara, and then at Luna and Wolfgang. The boy slowly made his way to his brother, with Ara watching, concern plastered on her face.
She pursed her lips, fists clenching with her books in hand.
He was so frightened…
Her gaze narrowed, and before she knew what she was doing, she found herself following Paxton over to Aramis.
Aramis looked up, brow raising. He glanced at his brother, “Make a friend, baby brother?”
Paxton fingered his collar, not answering. Ara offered as cordial a smile as she could muster, extending a hand.
“Arabella Fabel.”
“Yea. I know you. One of Jocelyn and Grimm’s friends.” Aramis smirked. “I’ve seen you around. With that ginger…what’s his name…?”
“November.”
“Right! The klutz.”
Ara’s throat tightened, heart pounding. Her eyes narrowed. “He’s not a klutz.”
“Right. Whatever.” He looked back at Paxton. “Glad to see you’ve made some friends,” his voice dripped with sarcasm.
“Yea, he has!” Another voice. Luna approached from behind, hand extended. “I’m Luna!” Aramis blinked, staring at the girls hand. He didn’t take it, forcing Luna to remove it slowly.
“Haven’t seen you around. New, huh?”
“Yes. You’re Paxton’s brother, aren’t you?” Luna asked.
“That’s right.”
“I heard you’re a bully.”
“Luna…” Ara’s eyes went wide.
Aramis merely chuckled, leaning back in his seat. “And who told you that?” He looked at his brother, who whimpered, shrinking behind Ara.
“Not Paxton, if that’s what you’re implying. Everyone around here knows it…” Ara spoke cautiously.
“Hm. True.” Aramis shrugged. He glanced behind them at Joshua and Wolfgang who was glaring.
“You’re Dietrich and Adolphus’ stepbrothers…aren’t ya?” He smirked. “Fun.”
Suddenly, the door open and the teacher walked in. “Please take your seats students.”
Ara and the group were forced to sit near Aramis, since all other seats were taken. Ara sat in front of him, so Paxton wouldn’t have to, though he’d tried to make him.
Ara shot him a look as she sat down, pushing a strand of hair behind her ear.
Aramis grinned.
He leaned forward, whispering, “Hey, when you’re ready to leave the klutz…let me know.”

@godlyfantasy12. Get him Corvina…XD!! And IKR!? That SONGGGGG!!! AUGHHHHHHH!!!!! I think of your characters when I listen to songs a lot now, along with mine, lol. XD @wilder-w.
Leo
This girl even freaked out Adolphus…nice.
Adolphus needed someone to frighten him.
He frightened almost everyone in this school.
It was his turn to be scared.
Leo tapped his fingers on his desk.
He didn’t hate Science, per say, but it was one of the subjects he was failing the most at. It and Math.
Leo sighed, brushing a strand of his black hair out of his eyes.
What was the point of studying so hard!?
He was already failing…and two of the bullies, the head bullies, actually, knew.
And if they told Adolphus…
…well…
…it wouldn’t be good.
Riker
“Do not tell Nyx I told you any of that,” Grimm sighed, and they entered the classroom.
Riker smiled faintly.
“Come on, Riker, let’s sit!” Angelina cried, suddenly grabbing his wrist, and Riker hissed and pulled away.
“Ang…careful…”
Leon and Grimm both looked at him with confused and concerned looks.
Riker pulled his sleeve back down, re-covering the bruise there.
“Oh…right…I’m sorry…I forgot…” Angelina whispered, gaze falling to her shoes.
Riker smiled faintly and wrapped his other arm around her. “It’s okay.” He looked at Grimm and Leon and forced a smile. “I’m good. Come on, Ang, let’s find somewhere to sit.” He whispered, leading his sister away before Leon or Grimm could ask any more questions.
They sat down together, side by side.
“I’m sorry…I forgot it got bruised…”
“It’s fine, Ang…”
“Leon and Grimm looked so concerned…maybe…?”
Riker shook his head, dropping his voice to a very, very low whisper. “No Ang…we can’t. You know we can’t talk about it…no one can know.”
Angelina slowly nodded. “I know…you say that…but why? Isn’t it normal…won’t they understand?”
Riker turned to face his younger, sweet, compassionate, energetic, innocent sister.
Normal for your dad to hit you?
Normal for your dad to hurt you because you had a bad grade?
Riker smiled faintly. “Sure Ang…but Leon and Grimm have enough on their plates…let’s leave them alone.”
Joshua
“Hey, when you’re ready to leave the klutz…let me know.” Aramis whispered to Arabella, likely supposing that no one else could hear him.
“Hey, leave her alone, would you?” Joshua hissed, and Wolfgang looked at him in surprise.

@freedomwriter76 Ach!!! I’m so sorry its been so long! I’ve been wrestling alligators (its a saying that no-one says) lol.
Hope:
Hope blinked, putting her hands to her forehead. Black swirls filled her mind. She could almost taste the metallic sting of some acholic beverage on her lips. Thoughts cluttered, pill bottles scattered. And screaming.
“You better git yerself out-a here, or I’mma gonna inflict pain to yer upper lip!!”
Hope cringed. Please, someone…please, make it stop! Daddy, stop…please!
A familiar voice filled her conscience, “Hey, Hope…are you alright?”
Rueben.
That’s right.
He was still here.
Hope could feel his warm hand on her arm. It sent shivers up her spine, yet, it broke her out of memories lane and into the present.
“Yeah…yeah…I’m fine. Good. All good.” Hope said, rubbing the back of her neck. “I…just…that happens a lot. My childhood was…mmm…traumatic. You know?” Hope felt her face flush. Of course he couldn’t know, you idiot.@freedomwriter76
Grimm
Riker may have thought he’d been quick…but Grimm had seen the bruise on his wrist, just before he pulled his sleeve down.
Grimm frowned, watching Riker carefully as he whispered to Angelina.
His mind spun.
If it were bullies…
Riker wouldn’t be afraid to come to someone…right? Unless they’d threatened him somehow…which wouldn’t be surprising…
Or…
It might not have been bullies at all…
Grimm’s mind wandered for a moment, remembering a talk he’d attended on abuse…how the signs appeared…how to help…
He didn’t remember everything about it, but…he knew that it differed from person to person.
Some abused people acted like Paxton…nervous. Shifty. Anxious.
While others…
Well…
They acted more like…
November….
And some…didn’t even know they were being abused…or…gaslighted.
Not many knew he’d taken the class…only Ara and Lyn…
In truth, he’d done it for November, and Jocelyn, and Nyx…
After issues with Nyx and Lyn’s original guardian had sprouted…and guardianship had changed….Nyx had grown more…troublesome…and Lyn had struggled some.
And while Lyn was better now…Nyx was still…
Struggling. Though no one pointed it out.
And November…well…it seemed all of his friends suspected he was being abused…in some way…but…he didn’t realize it.
“Mr. Beowulf?” Grimm’s head snapped up. He realized he was the only one still standing the class. “Please take your seat.”
“Oh. Yes sir.” Grimm coughed, sitting down. He sighed, glancing once more at Riker before looking around the room.
He reached for his books and-
Wait…
Grimm turned his head to the right. Then the left. Scanning the room.
His eyes widened, heart beating rapidly. Leon leaned over.
“Hey,” he whispered. “You alright?”
Grimm didn’t hear him over the drumming in his ears. It took everything in him not to stand up and look around more. He swallowed.
Where was Nyx?
Arabella
Ara smiled at Joshua sweetly. “Thank you,” she whispered. He nodded. Aramis glared at him from behind.
She looked at Paxton, who was shrunk down in his seat. She reached over a hand, gently taking his in hers without Aramis’ noticing. Paxton looked at her with wide, and then squeezed her hand.
Ara smiled at him.

Nyx
Stupid Grimm…thinking I can’t handle myself! Who does he think he is? He’s not my dad or anything….
Nyx winced at the sudden thought, nose twitching as he thought to the man that now sat at home. The man who spoke in riddles, staring out the window. The man he still wasn’t entirely sure about…
He…he seemed alright…he was nice…jovial…
But…
Everything had just been so…
AGH.
Why was he thinking about this now?
He slipped his hands into his pockets, stalking away.
He’d made sure Grimm hadn’t seen him sneak out the door of class. As if he could tell him not to skip…
Besides…Physics was boring.
When would he ever need to know about that stupid stuff anyway?
He rounded a corner. Man…things sure were quiet when people were in class. Though, a few students still mulled around, in-between their own classes. Wasn’t near as crowded though.
He kinda liked it.
Now he just had to find somewhere to hang out…
Where had his sister been headed?
Geography…right. Maybe he could find where that was…
Rounded another corner.
Suddenly, Nyx felt his feet leave the ground.
“Hey!” He cried, kicking his legs as he was lifted under his arms by an unknown force. Whoever it was drug him backwards, out of sight of prying eyes. He writhed and kicked in their grip. “Let me go you-!”
He looked up, finding a random young man holding him, smiling. Nyx hissed, canines showing.
“Well, hello foxie.” Two figures appeared in front of him.
Dietrich and Adolphus.
Nyx growled, kicking out harder. “My name is Nyx! Let me go!”
“Ah, ah, short stack,” Dietrich tapped the kit’s nose, making him snap. “We told you you wouldn’t get away with scratching my brother.” Dietrich smirked maliciously.
The one holding Nyx tightened his grip, wrapping arms underneath Nyx’s. Nyx hissed louder, fighting harder, but it was no use, though he was able to nearly kick Dietrich.
“Feisty isn’t he?” A new voice sounded.
a fifth figure appeared. One with blonde hair and…large white wings. He was tall, almost taller then Dietrich. He looked down at the little kit with arms crossed. “He’s the one who scratched you? This little thing?”
“Like you said, he’s feisty,” Adolphus shrugged.
The blonde glared at the kit. “Well, Nyx was it? I, am Edrich Fallon…I’m sure you’ve heard of me.”
“Hmm, can’t say I have.” Nyx smirked. “Maybe you’re not as famous as you think you are.”
Edrich growled, fists clenching. He knelt down, nose nearly touching Nyx’s. “And maybe you should learn to keep your smart mouth shut.”
Nyx spat.
(oh Nyx…DX)
Edrich’s eyes flared and before Nyx could react he slapped him. Hard.
Hard enough to make his head ring and his jaw ache. Enough to make a small bit of blood trickle from his lip.
Edrich looked at the brothers, nodding, and then stepped aside.
Nyx shook his head, still slightly dazed, and looked up just in time to see Dietrich and Adolphus in front of him, grinning.

@godlyfantasy12. I’m here now for a little bit! And you’re good! Adolphus may just skip…heh…not like he’d probably get in trouble anyhow! @wilder-w.
Leo
A phone dinged.
Leo turned around, just as he saw Adolphus smirk and stand up.
Adolphus walked out of the classroom.
Where was he going?
“Hey, November, I think I forgot something. I’ll be right back.” Leo whispered, and before November could say a word, he stood and was on his way.
Adolphus was after someone, and Leo couldn’t stand by.
He’d already failed his brothers…he’d do everything and anything he could to help everyone else.
Leo stopped right outside the door.
This could mess up his grades even more.
Make it more likely for him to fail…
…his stepbrothers…
…his mother…
…finding out.
It meant he was likely to get a beating.
Maybe multiple.
But…helping others…that was more important.
He had to be strong…brave.
So, he followed Adolphus.
Finally, he found his stepbrother, along with Dietrich and…Edrich.
Leo stayed at the corner, keeping himself hidden…at least for now.
The sound of a hard and harsh slap sounded.
Leo flinched.
“Watch what you say and do, foxie, you don’t know who you’re messing with.” Dietrich said with a smirk.
“You’ll pay for scratching me.” Adolphus snarled.
The…fox…boy…? Yeah, fox boy, was bleeding.
Adolphus and Dietrich stepped towards the boy.
Leo slightly stepped out of his hiding spot.
He had to do something…no…no matter what it costed.
@freedomwriter76 @wilder-w
Nyx
The kit spat blood from his lips, hissing. “Really? That’s all you’ve got?” He let out an aimed kick at one of the brothers’ stomachs, but it hit their leg instead.
“You little-!” Nyx took a punch to the gut, making him double over. He groaned, but forced his head up, glaring blearily at his attackers.
Edrich was grinning in the background. “You know kid, you’d make a nice addition to my team…if you didn’t have such a mouth on you.”
“Like I’d ever join you and your low rate, wannabe, gangsters!!” Nyx yelled. Edrich’s eyes flared. “Don’t you have enough lackies with Adoofus and Dumbtrich over here?”
“THAT’S IT!” Adolphus roared, grabbing the boy by the ears. He jerked his head back so hard it felt like he’d snap his ears off. Nyx couldn’t help the pained cry that escaped his lips. “Dietrich…” He glanced at his brother, fire in his eyes. “Why don’t you take the little fox’s tails, hm?”
Dietrich grinned, “They are pretty little things aren’t they?” He whispered.
Nyx’s eyes widened, his tails immediately wrapping around his legs. His mind went on high alert, senses hitting at full speed.
No…not his tails…a-anything but his tails…
He let out a whimper.
“Looks like you two finally shut the kid up,” Edrich said.
Nyx screeched and clawed as Dietrich went for the three swishing appendages.
“HEY! Leave him alone!” A voice rang out over his screeches.
Nyx opened his eyes, but was unable to see anyone. All he could hear was the growled whisper from Adolphus.
“Leo…”

@godlyfantasy12. Adoofus and Dumbtrich!? PERFECTO XDXDXDXD!!!!! And man, isn’t Leo having an eventful first day!? xD @wilder-w.
Leo
Fists clenched, Leo marched towards his stepbrothers and Edrich. “What did he ever do to you!?”
“Scratched me, that’s what.” Adolphus replied with a snarl, still holding onto Nyx.
Leo crossed his arms. Rolled his eyes. “You deserve it.”
Adolphus’ eyes narrowed. “Learn when to shut it, Leo…it will help you…”
Leo uncrossed his arms, fists clenching again. “You need to figure out when to leave people alone.”
Dietrich laughed. “Oh, Leo…you’re so…stupid. But me and Adolphus are currently busy, so…we can’t deal with you…”
“Leave. Him. Alone!” Leo yelled again.
“We don’t have time for you, Leo…” Adolphus whispered with a smirk.
Leo glared at him, when suddenly, Edrich was in front of him.
Leo backed up, only to realize he was too close to a locker.
His back slammed into it.
He looked up at Edrich.
No…he wouldn’t back down.
He would be brave.
“Hello again…Leo…”

@wilder-w. You’re good girl! I understand how busy life can get! And poor Hope! *sobs* @godlyfantasy12.
Reuben
“I…just…that happens a lot. My childhood was…mmm…traumatic. You know?” Hope asked, and her cheeks flushed.
Reuben glanced at her.
He understood…and…and…someone…other than his brothers…had trauma too…?
That meant…that meant…he was…he could be…
…understood.
“…I understand completely…entirely…” Reuben whispered, taking her hands in his own, his blue eyes meeting her beautiful, emerald green, “and…it’s okay…we can battle it together…side by side…as…well…friends…” His cheeks flushed.
In all, complete honesty…Hope was…
…beautiful.
