Tales of Legendia - A New Generation
Chapter 6: Big Brother!
-------
One day, Sable Coolidge was having her lunch as usual in the Werite's Beacon Academy. Mmm.. It's egg salad.. She said to herself and took a bite. Yummy.. It was just an ordinary day, clouds in the sky with the sun peeking behind them. This was Sable's favourite kind of weather. For some reason, she found it too quiet. Something was suppose to to happen while she was eating her sandwich. Just as the thought came, a dark shadow loomed over her..
"Hey, watcha doin' dork?"
An older girl, around 16 years old, grabbed Sable by the collar of her dark blue sweater. A series of laughs and giggles came. "Don't suppose you got some grub to pay me," the elder girl grumbled.
This girl was named Jojo, who came along with her friends. She's the bully of the whole 3rd grade, which means Sable is in big trouble.
The strange thing was that Sable wasn't shivering in fear. She was just hanging by the collar, staring at her opponent with a blank expression. "All I have is this," she said, and lifted up the half eaten sandwich.
Jojo snatched Sable's lunch and threw it at the ground, then watched her minions kicked and spit at it. The bully laughed an evil laugh and tossed Sable to the ground just as she did with the lunch.
The whitenette struggled to get up, but she was pinned down by two other big girls. "Let me go!" demanded Sable in a firm voice. "Or you'll taste my wrath! For i will summon the most ferocious monster ever!"
Jojo and her minions laughed again at Sable's warning. "Shyeah right!" taunted Jojo. "Only stupid bandits who don't even go to school summon monsters! Are you saying that you're one of them?" Laughter spread around except for the quiet Sable.
Sable glared at the fiend, then took a deep breath. A very very very deep breath.
"KUUUYAAA CAAAAAAAAAL!!!"

"Cal, if you like her so much, why not court her?"
Cal shook his head when his friend gave him advice. "Nah, Shiela's a snappy girl," he said. "But, I don't know why I like her so much, it scares me."
Cal's friend, Timmy, continued to polish his sword. "I dunno what you see in her, buddy," he admitted. "But whatever it is, you must tell her."
Cal shook his head again, then blushed. Why is he asking for advise in the first place? Well, he can't really help it after he fell head over heels in love with Shiela. It all started at that time when..
Cal froze. He heard something. It was very faint, but the message was so clear.
"Yo, buddy, what's the matter?" asked Timmy, looking up from his polishing.
"Nothing." answered Cal. He just sheathed his sword into it's proper place then stretched his muscles.
"Well," said Timmy. "Just follow my advise, pal. You just talk to Shiela and pour out ye feelings to her, okay?"
No answer.
Timmy looked at the spot where Cal was, but there was no Cal around.
"Buddy?"
---
"Hahahaha! What kind of summon is that?" snorted Jojo. "All I heard was a whiny baby screaming for help! Really, how pathetic are you anyway?"
Sable started to count down from 10. "10, 9, 8, 7..."
"What're you saying, you brat?" Jojo went up and kicked Sable's side. The whitenette choked, but kept on counting.
"6, 5, 4.."
A foot poked at Sable's head, taunting her current situation.
"3.."
"Hey, what's that?" asked a minion, looking at the horizon. It looked like a flash of metal.
"2.."
Jojo squinted her eyes, then shrugged. "I think it's.."
"1."
There was a roar, and Jojo got stuck on the spot. "It's-It's-IT'S---!!"
"GET OFF MY SISTER YOU LITTLE PIECE OF -censored-"
Cal appeared out of nowhere. It was like from dust to flesh. The half albino striked immediately with an amazing strength, attempting to gouge out Jojo's legs. Unfortunately, Jojo skipped to the side by chance and only got a deep cut around her thighs. The big bully fell to the ground, screaming at the white hot pain while clutching at her leg, which was bleeding heavily.
"Don't mess with me or my sister you inhuman thing, you!" Cal warned at her, pointing his sword at the bully's heart. "Otherwise, I'll really kill you!"
Whimpering in fear, the minions back off by the slashing half albino and dragged a limping Jojo from sight. Cal knew this wasn't the last time he'll see the monster, but he knew how to deal with her next time.
There was a small whine behind him, and he turned around to see. His little sister sat on the ground, rocking back and forth in an abnormal way.
"It's okay sis," Cal said and embraced her. Sable hugged back. "They're gone now, everything's okay."
Sable wasn't crying, but it was more like whimpering. "I-I could have been m-more.." she stuttered. "I-I wanna show them that I-I was a woman too.."
"It's okay, Sable." Cal said. "You can show them anytime." Then he stroked his little sister's hair. "But if you think that you can't handle it anymore, just call me, alright?"
Sable had this conversation everytime Jojo bullied her to the limit. Even if she knew each word Cal was going to say, she just nodded and pretend that it was the first time she heard Cal's noble words.
"Yes big brother." she whispered.
Cal smiled. He was proud to take care of a little sister. Although it was a heavy burden, he still loved the little whitenette.
