I stared around at the schoolyard as kids ran back and forth with their parents following. Seems they were still riled up from yesterday. In that exact moment I spotted Lucy running towards me her best friend Casey in hand, who was grinning like a maniac as Lucy called out excitedly,
"Edan, Edan! Can Casey come to the park with us?"
I smiled warmly as I ruffled her hair my grin intact "Sure thing, Its Friday After all!" They cheered and I held onto each of their hands as we ran off towards the park.
Soon I was sitting on the bench studying a random group of teenagers in the park cautiously, as Lucy and Casey climbed all over the playground squeaking with excitement. I scanned the grounds quickly before staring warmly over at Lucy. The coast is clear to have fun.
I jumped up and trotted over silently as I crept up behind Lucy who was talking to Casey, she spotted me quickly but I just put my finger to my lips and she grinned immediately going back to talking.
Suddenly I pounced "BOO!" She let out a squeak as she fell onto her arse as she spun around, She stared up at me at first in confusion before she let out a whine "EEEEEEdaaaaan!"
She jumped to her feet and jumped onto my back wrapping her hands around my neck, being careful not to choke me. As she let out an indigent squeal "I'll get you Edan!"
Casey jumped in and wrapped herself around my waist holding on with an excited shout "Let's get her!" I shook around laughing loudly as they were bursting with squeals and laughter.
Suddenly though they jumped off as I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked around and stared blankly at the group of teenage boys who seemed to be laughing and grinning uncontrollably.
A cold weight settled in my stomach as I pulled the girls behind me, my face icy.
"You look too Young to be a mother of two!" One of them sneered, I stayed silent as I felt dread rise up "She must be soooo good in bed" another chuckled darkly and I felt myself pale as the kids behind me exchanged confused glances "What do they mean?" Casey whispered to Lucy and she shook her head shrugging. "No idea"
They burst out laughing at the kid's conversation and they sneered at them "You haven't heard of Birds and bees?" The skinny one jabbed and Lucy frowned, raising her voice indignantly "Of course we have!"
The boys doubled over laughing and I felt an icy rage rise up as one of them sneered at me "You must have been Raped or something"
The girls blinked as they heard another Unknown remark.
"Go Away" I hissed angrily as the hair on the back of my neck rose with anger and slight fear for the girls. They let out a chuckle as one of them called with amusement "This Bitch is Fucking Perfect"
My voice went low with anger as my face paled. "You are in the Presence of Six Year olds, Do. Not. Swear."
If they laugh one more time… I swear ill rip them to shreds.
I scowled angrily as I straightened up, "We'll be going now" I spun around and ushered the girls forward.
"Hold on Bitch!" One of them grabbed my shoulder with a grip of iron spinning me around to face them. At once one of them pressed his lips to mine, causing me to let out a scream, as the girls also screeched. I jerked around and my knee found its mark on the man's crotch, he doubled over in pain but another just took over.
I tried to struggle away as they surrounded me and the girls who were shivering and screaming with terror and shock. I jerked my head back away from them and raised my voice in a screech witch caused them to pause. I leapt forwards and grabbed ones throat and my claws extended to cause small streams of blood to fall, as I dug them in slightly.
He let out a gasp of pain as the others stared in astonishment, my face went deadly cold as I stared around at them whose scent were laced with terror.
"Do. Not. Touch. Those. Girls" I hissed angrily as my anger leapt forward. "Leave them alone"
They took a step back in fear and I smirked glancing at Lucy who had Understanding in her eyes "I'll meet you at the place" She nodded and gripped her best friends hand as she ran off her eyes glazed over with fear.
I immediately relaxed, and my calm gaze settled in.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" My eyes narrowed at the hesitant boys and the bulkiest one stepped forward angrily, and I smelt a slight scent of Alcohol waving off him.
"Of course we do you little Bitch!" He snapped and I closed my eyes my smirk returning as I opened my arms "Hit me"
I opened one eye to see their astonished faces and the one who just spoke stepped forward determinedly as he gripped my arm. I spun around in a flash as my heel hit the side of his face sending him flying.
"I said hit me"
That seemed to rile them up and they all leapt forward in an angry frenzy. Quick as lightning I lashed out my foot knocking someone over while my hand ripped into another's hair jerking him down as momentum as I jumped up on his back before leaping over them as he fell.
They were too busy fighting themselves to notice that I was standing back staring in amusement. So I walked away in a hurry and made my way into the other end of the park, the one which just had trees and bushes, as well as a creek.
I raised my head and sniffed the air before I felt something catapult into me with a familiar squeal of relief "EDAN! You're so awesome!" I pulled them into a big bear hug as I sighed "You shouldn't have watched!" I scolded them but they just grinned.
Casey paused though as we sat down on the grass comfortably. "Why did you sniff the air?" she questioned and I smirked glancing around before leaning in. "I have a sensitive nose, I could smell you"
She let out a squeal before sniffing her armpits "I had a bath though…" she muttered and I laughed,
"It's not like that Casey! Everyone has their own special smell, and it's really pleasant!" I decided not to say anything about how those boys stunk terribly. "What do I smell like?" She cocked her head curiously and I grinned "You smell like Cinnamon" She grinned proudly and puffed up her chest "That's because mum makes Cinnamon and sugar toast every Morning!" she boasted.
I felt a twinge of pain and it seems Lucy did too at the mention of a mum, "You should come over and mum can make you some!" She said excitedly and Lucy was soon backing to her excited self when she started to beg to go over.
"Sure! And look See, Casey your mothers here to pick you up already!" they leapt to their feet and raced over calling a greeting. I trotted after them cautiously and I smiled warmly at Karen, Casey's mother.
"Good Evening Edan" She smiled in return. "You look pale" She added after moments paused.
"That's because she got Kissed" Lucy pipped up and I paled even more, Karen raised an eyebrow as I leaned over whispering urgently. "A gang of Teenagers tried to Gang Rape me"
She paled and shook her head "I'm glad you're alright" She glanced my way sympathetically and I warmed to her kindness.
"Do you mind dropping Lucy off at 5?" I asked louder and she nodded a smile on her face "I've got some Dinner if you want some, you can come over and eat with us!" She exclaimed and I shook my head "I've already got something for myself" The truth is we ran out of food, so I have to go shopping for breakfast tomorrow, probably just some bread.
"But Edan, We ran out!"
I glared at her and she blinked raising her head indignantly "You need to eat" I scowled as I felt a slight blush rise to my cheeks. "Don't worry Lucy I'm fine, I'm going shopping on the way home" She seemed satisfied with that answer so I said my goodbyes and made my way down the streets.
I didn't go far though as I heard a shout. I glanced around only to find Tony Stark poking his head out of the window he was gesturing for me to come over and I sighed. I picked my way through the crowding people and glared at him "Yes?"
"How's it going?" I scowled angrily and let out a small hiss "It was Amazing until you came into the picture" I snapped and he smirked "Yea, Do you want a lift?" I paused and my face darkened "I was told not to get into cars with strangers." He scowled and just gestured for me to come in, "I'm Not a Stranger, I know your deepest darkest secret"
I scowled as I knew he had won; I opened the door and slammed in shut after I sat down on the strangely comfortable seats.
Soon he drove off back into the traffic and he looked at my reflection in the mirror. "So I need to tell you something" He started awkwardly and I raised an eyebrow in question. "I May, Or May not of, Told someone…" He trailed off as I jerked forward poking my head in the front as I growled angrily
"Who?!" I snapped and he rubbed the back of his neck his eyes fixed on the road. "Someone called Fury…" I let out a low growl as I slapped my left eye "Fucking Pirate" I muttered and he shock me a shocked look, "You know him?"
I scowled angrily as I sat back "That mother fucker tried to get me to join the avengers, but I told him No, I needed time for Lucy." I let out a small sigh, "So something tells me he wants someone following me right?" He nodded and I groaned sitting back,
"They better not be following Lucy" I muttered as he stopped outside my house. I got out quickly and smiled at him "Thanks for telling me, and please tell Fury to fuck off" I spun around and instead of going into my house I made my way down the street.
"Hey! Where are you going?" I looked back over my shoulder at his confused face. "I ran out of food, got to get Breakfast for Tomorrow" I shouted back at him, as I walked towards the corner store.
