Chapter 4
Change Of Routine
Magdalene couldn't stop smiling; that's a fact. The wide smile is permanently stuck on her face but she doesn't care even if the smile stayed until the next day.
Her brother had returned. That's all she cared.
When she entered her next class, everyone was confused on why Magdalene was incredibly happy. She cheerfully greeted the class teacher, Bobby Budoh who was commonly known as BB. She doesn't have a strong relationship with BB and the two rarely acknowledge each other.
Or to be more precisely, BB didn't acknowledge Magdalene's presence, ever.
Magdalene even skipped her way to her seat, drawing attention from everyone in the class. She dropped into her seat with a happy thud and placed her head in her palms. The class was delayed for a few minutes because of her mysteriously happy behavior.
Nobody had ever seen Mangle this happy before.
But at the same time, murmurs had spread through the whole school about their new teacher. They said that he pinned down one of the students for unknown reason and threatened him to death. They don't know why, though; they still don't understand his action.
ChiChi – who was in a different class than Magdalene – however was lost in her thought. The teacher in front of her class had his jaw opened and closed as he rambled to the class. ChiChi wasn't paying any attention to his ramble, like most of the students did.
She was thinking about her new History teacher. Not that she is attracted to him or anything; HELL NO! But she did admit that he is hot and attractive, especially for a fact that he is shirtless.
ANYWAY! He is probably too old her, and he's a bit fierce for her, especially what he had done to Sean earlier.
His action toward Sean is what made her confused. Why did he suddenly pin down Sean out of a sudden? Why did he do it? Did the two have some history long time ago?
That's impossible. They probably had never met each other before. Just from Sean's first behavior toward the teacher already said it all. And that's the first time that Sean had put down in his place.
But why did the teacher suddenly do it?
ChiChi furrowed her yellow eyebrows together as her current teacher kept yapping and yapping into deaf ears.
While his action made her confused, there was one thing that caught her attention about the new teacher.
His eye; his golden left eye.
Why that eye does seem so much familiar to her? ChiChi had never met him before in her entire life, but that single golden eye seemed incredibly familiar.
And then, there's the part where it constricted into slit. That was when her blood mysteriously went colder than Arctic ice.
Even that slit golden eye seemed familiar to her. Why is that?
The school bell rang, snapping ChiChi from her thought and her teacher mouth shut. Looking at the time, it said that it's lunch time.
Huh, time sure flew quickly. ChiChi packed up her books and immediately left the class. She began to look around for her best friend, still worried over that Furry white vixen.
Magdalene had been the number one target for bullies, all bullies. She is just an unfortunate vixen. ChiChi had once tried to defend her, but only got pushed away and ignored as the bullies mangled up Magdalene. Even Chica was powerless to stop them all from hurting the Furry vixen.
Finally, ChiChi found the white vixen, but she stopped dead in her tracks when she saw what Magdalene was doing.
Magdalene was… skipping cheerfully? Is she smiled widely? Why is she humming happily?
ChiChi stared with wide disbelief eyes, never seeing this kind of behavior coming from the Furry vixen who had been bullied all the time and called 'Mangle' by nearly everyone. She had been happy before, but not on school ground. Even then, Magdalene had never been this happy.
Why?
"Hey ChiChi!" Magdalene shouted over the crowd, waving her hand to gain the Furry chicken's attention. ChiChi was startled at Magdalene's cheerful tone.
"H-hey," she replied back as Magdalene bounced her way towards her, her ponytails jumped in rhythms. ChiChi was taking a step back upon seeing this, not used to it.
Everyone else in the hallway stared with wide shocked eyes. Even they had never seen Magdalene, or Mangle to everyone, in this kind of behavior.
"Do you bring your lunch? I can share you with mine!" Magdalene suggested, holding up her lunch bag, widely beaming at the chicken before her.
"Y-yeah, I brought mine. You can keep your lunch to yourself," ChiChi answered back, stammering a bit. Apparently Magdalene noticed this. She tilted her head to the side, making her locks fell to one side covering her blind left eye.
Even that action made ChiChi horrified.
"Why are you stammering, ChiChi?" Magdalene asked with her right golden eye filled with such emotion that had never been there before. "Is something wrong?" she asked again, a bit concerned now.
Okay, ChiChi couldn't hold it back anymore.
"Okay, who are you and what have you done with my best friend?" ChiChi questioned, narrowing her eyes slightly and crossed her arms over her chest. Magdalene blinked in confusion.
"What do you mean?" she inquired, not getting the whole idea.
"You're being cheerful lately"
"What do you mean?" Magdalene repeated. "I'm always cheerful, haven't I?" she smiled brightly, a bit too bright for ChiChi.
Well, she met the Furry vixen early last year. She don't about Magdalene that much.
"But not to this extend!" ChiChi replied a bit too loudly. Magdalene furrowed her white eyebrows together in confusion. Then, they shot up her pale cream forehead once she got the whole idea wrapped around her head. That was when she giggled helplessly.
"Oh!" she spoke between giggles. "I think I know why I'm like this. Wait, scratch that. I know why I'm like this," she amended, still giggling cutely.
But before she could explain, they were interrupted by a person.
"Hey, Mangle"
The two turned around and was greeted by a giant Furry bull, standing nearly seven feet tall. El Toro BullHog is his name, the school's number one jockey and the school's strongest student. He's an arrogant bull and had way too much pride.
But he is a bit more behave than Sean Springtrap.
Magdalene actually received a broken arm from El Toro last year, and she had to stay at home to heal up. Luckily ChiChi and Chica were there to keep the Furry white vixen a company and to comfort her.
ChiChi cowered back in fear, but amazingly Magdalene stood her ground and not even fazed by El Toro's intimidating size.
"Oh hey, El Toro"
Everyone sharply turned their head toward the Furry vixen, eyes widened in shock.
Why is she is so happy when she is about to be beaten up into a pulp, or probably even worse than a pulp? She even smiled up at the giant bull before her!
"You seem awfully cheerful today, Mangle," El Toro growled, narrowing his eyes at Magdalene. Crowds began to form around them, anticipating for a beating.
"I know I am," she replied, the smile is still firmly plastered on her face. She held her hands together in front of her, looking a lot like a cute little Furry white vixen.
"You're starting to annoy me, Mangle," El Toro sneered, balling his massive hands. He was retracting his hand, preparing for a hit when Magdalene suddenly spoke up.
"If you try to land your hand – or fist – upon my person, then that's your biggest mistake you'll ever make," Magdalene warned cheerfully, bouncing on her heels like a little girl. Upon hearing the warning, El Toro was boiled with anger while ChiChi shook in fear.
"Why you little…" El Toro made an attempt to grab the Furry vixen.
Suddenly, everyone was greeted by the color purple.
El Toro suddenly got pinned down onto the hard floor and roared in pain. Everyone stared in shock as their new History teacher pinning down El Toro, his left foot on the Furry bull's back while holding El Toro's offending arm vertically and painfully up.
A large purple sash with stars on it, tied around his waist had one end hug freely and dramatically billowed.
"'Mangle'? Really?" Foxy said flatly to Magdalene, not amused a single bit. He twisted El Toro's arm a tad more, causing the Furry bull to roar in pain as Magdalene blushed in embarrassment and looked away from him.
"I-I'm a klutz in high school, and everything I touch all ended up mangled. Hence, the name," Magdalene explained, ignoring the roaring pain from El Toro.
"Well that-" Foxy got cut off by El Toro's roar of pain, causing the Anthrop fox to sigh tired. "Give me a moment," he stated, grabbing El Toro's arm with both of his hands.
Without even giving out a grunt of exertion, he twisted the arm like it was nothing, breaking it. El Toro roared in such agony that echoed through the silent hallway and Foxy let go of his arm. It limped in an odd angle, signaling that it's already broken and dislocated.
Everyone in the hallway, all of the students, had their eyes bulged out in pure disbelief. The school's strongest student got pinned down by their new History teacher, and then breaking his arm like a twig.
Foxy stepped off of the Furry bull and looked down at El Toro in distaste, before shifting his attention to the Furry vixen in front of him. He smiled and gently caressed her cheek with his only gloved hand. Magdalene leaned into his touch, grabbing his arm with her hands, wanting it to linger a bit as a blissful smile appeared on her gorgeous face.
Foxy released her cheek, making her to drop her hands to her sides, and scratched one of her vixen ears. Magdalene closed her eyes and her tail twitched in pleasure as her smile widened. The Anthrop fox's smile widened a bit and gave the Furry vixen a final pat on the head before walking away, leaving El Toro lying on the ground.
The whole hallway was dead silent, not a single sound was made except for the painful groans and grunts coming from El Toro. Everyone was watching the new History teacher walked away before shifting their attention to Magdalene, or more commonly known as Mangle by everyone.
She was still smiling and her right eye was filled with emotions no one could tell.
"Magdalene," ChiChi slowly and fearfully muttered. "What… was all… that?" she asked at the still smiling Furry vixen. The hallway was still dead silence.
"I did give him a fair warning," she stated, glancing at the injured Furry bull on the ground. "But he didn't listen and earned the price," Magdalene added, looking back at where the Anthrop red fox had left.
"Why is he reacted like that?" ChiChi inquired. Magdalene turned her head and looked at the Furry chicken in confusion.
"You don't know?" Magdalene said, now fully giving ChiChi her full attention.
"W-well," ChiChi stuttered. "I know that he's protecting you from El Toro bullying you. But why with the sudden affection? You don't know him personally, don't you?"
Magdalene felt a little bit hurt. Someone who finally cared about here is present in school, but everyone including her best friend questioned his behavior. It was like, he shouldn't do that to her because she is an outcast.
Don't anyone know that Foxy is her beloved older brother?
Then, out of a sudden, it hit Magdalene.
Her older brother didn't mention his full name. He just said his name is 'Foxy' and nothing more. And almost everyone here in school doesn't know that he's her older brother. Even ChiChi and Chica doesn't know that.
That's probably why everyone was incredibly confused by his actions and sudden affections towards Magdalene.
She smiled brightly.
"You know what? Why don't you figure it out?" she suggested happily. "You'll find out about it more if you do it that way"
ChiChi blinked in surprise. Just from the request, she could tell that Magdalene knew something that she doesn't.
"Why don't you just tell me?" ChiChi requested, earning a giggle from her best friend.
"Well it's no fun that way," Magdalene replied. "We should go and have our lunch. The time's ticking," she reminded everyone. Upon hearing that, they locked down at their watches and immediately scrambled to eat.
Magdalene only calmly walked to the cafeteria with ChiChi at her side, the smile on her pale cream face firmly stayed.
"So…" a student suddenly spoke after a while. "Who's going to carry El Toro to the infirmary room?"
If you guys actually know what BB's surname means, I am sure you'll love it. Because I couldn't stop laughing at it. Even now, frankly.
