Happy felt terrified going in here. If Lucy said this was scary, than it had to be really scary. But not scarier than Erza of course, she is the scariest thing there is out of all scary things on the world.
"Tell us your name."
The first scary voice was already too much for Happy and he sprouts his wings quickly. Flying off into the darkness and bumping into something soft and thin. Like clothing. Smelling of sea salt and sweat.
"Hey! Get off of me!" the same voice thunders and Happy just clings on tightly to the soft piece of cloth. "Boys, turn on the light… I think we got another Lulu over here… And bring Yani in… I want to see her smile."
The lights slowly start burning brightly and Happy finally sees what he is holding. A big black cloak made out of fine linen. "Scared?" the voice asks, which Happy had traced to the cloaked being, who was looking down at him.
"A-Aye…" Happy says letting go quickly and flying in front of the cloaked man. "Wait, you're not too scary." He looks at the glasses and curly brown hair the person has.
"I guess, well. Welcome to the Institute, again, what is your name?"
"Happy!" He says with a smile and looks around him. Five more cloaked men and another walks in with the cap removed. Nearly white skin and same color hair. Bright blue eyes and looking to be femine.
"Well Happy, Uhm… what kind of magic do you use? Or are you a fighter? I take it you're not a tank…"
"I am Natsu's pet! And I can fly!" He salutes happily "I most of the times just help others out."
"Okay… so... a support?" The woman walks up to happy and kneels. "He's so cute… can I keep him in my dorms? Please?"
Happy already knew where this would be going. A whole night of cuddling like he was a toy and takes an awkward step back.
"That's his to decide… you know that Yani." The woman sighs sadly and just kneels before Happy. Poking his cheek with her slender finger.
"Uhm… I… I think I would rather stay with Teemo… he seemed nice" Yani stand up and looks at the one with curly brown hair. Who just nods no. after that she leaves. And looks back at Happy sadly.
"See you on the battlefield." She winks and leaves.
"So, Happy, what kind of magic do you really have? You can fly and…"
"And I can carry people much heavier than me. Also I can beat people with fish! I like fish!"
"Okay… we'll uh… we'll find a role for you… You can go now… I take it you want to be with like-sized creatures, for example Teemo?"
"Aye!" He salutes quickly and smiles.
"Okay, Happy, The Flying Feline, a Yordle. Have a nice night..." The curly brown one smiles and writes on a piece of parchment. Happy leaves the room quickly and looks back at the automatically closing door.
"Okay… now to find Ezreal." Happy turns around only to see an empty hallway. "Guys?" he looks again and rubs his eyes. "Did you really abandon me? Awh…" Sadly the blue cat walks down the halls hoping his friends would jump from behind a pillar any minute now. "Why!" he shouts in sadness and keeps walking. Not quite noticing that multiple champions were eyeing him down.
"Can I eat him?" "Can I keep him?" "Can I trick him with a backstab?" "Can I use my charms to get him to go to us?" "Can we just grab him and see how he defends himself?" "Can we kill him?" "Can we stop arguing and just grab him?" "Can we pay attention? He is out of sight." The heads that were arguing uncontrollable forgot their target and come forth from their hiding places.
"Well, there goes our chance to get an advantage on the fields of justice." One says and floats away. Reading through a torn book he keeps afloat with magic.
"Why did you guys have to ruin this? This could have been a crucial moment to know about him" Another voice scolds and disappears into the shadows. Leaving a puff of red smoke behind.
Happy saw it all happen because he had flown towards the ceiling and hid behind one of the many pillars. Still a bit creeped out by all the figures and what they said. "I need to get back to Teemo…" He says softly to himself. Ascending down the pillar and using his wings to get through the Institute quickly. "Yordle wing… Where is the Yordle wing…" he mutters as he follows all kinds of signs. "Yordle Wing… Yordle wing…"
"Yordle wing? Is that what you're looking for? I can bring you there!" A small girl quickly catches up with Happy. Smiling kindly at him. "Haven't seen you before. I'm Lulu, pleased to meet you."
Happy was a bit baffled seeing her. He was still flying, which meant she was too. And he looks a little like Wendy… only slightly… probably the hair. "Uhm… I'm Happy. Hi" he slowly extends his paw and slows down a little. "Are you too a Yordle?"
"Uh, huh. Lulu! The Fea sorceress!" she giggles and nearly falls off of her cane. Holding on with one hand and pulling herself back up. "Woah… that was close. So, your name is Happy? Are you always so happy?" she sits cross-legged on her cane and looks him in the eyes.
"I guess I am. Are you always this chirpy? I like it." Happy smiles back and makes her giggle again. Going into full-blown laughter and falling off of her cane again. Holding herself up with her feet clenched around her wooden flying cane.
"Yes I am, come, follow me back. Or, we can go explore. I bet you haven't seen anything here yet except the Yordle wing. Teemo took care of you right? Always serious and no fun. But I, I like going around and playing tricks on people! Let's go to the Demacian wing! I bet bird brain will look up when her bird is 5 times bigger!"
Happy likes this woman... or… girl actually. She looks young, but that could just be because she is a Yordle. Also, purple. Another colored friend for him. "I would like to see what you are going to do! Sounds fun!"
"Alright! Follow me! Hotfoot!" she says with newfound joy and flies a little faster. But still not as fast as happy could if he wanted. Remembering where he went. Left, right, Left, Upstairs, Left, Left.
"Okay! ShhH! We don't want Quinn to know it was us. Or else we are going to get in trouble." She smirks and giggles mischievous. Walking up to a door with a golden plaque saying 'Quinn'. The door highly decorated with wings and feathers.
"I'll be silent!" Happy whispers and Lulu nods. Opening the door carefully and looking inside.
"Perfect, she's asleep." Lulu snickers and aims her cane through the door at an already big bird. "That's Valor… now... watch this." She takes a big breath and swings her cane. "TREMENDO!" she shouts and a bolt of purple essence flies towards the bird, who had woken from her shouting, and gets knocked to the ground. Growing rapidly. "And now, Chaos ensues." She quickly closes the door and puts one of her big ears on the door. Happy does to and listens. Both giggling.
"Valor! STOP MOVING SO MU- UMPF! VALOR! CALM DOWN! GRRRR! LULUUUUUUU!" they both hear heavy footsteps coming to the door and back off quickly.
"Now we run…" she says a bit awkward and turns to run away from the door. Said door quickly opens to reveal a woman in a blue and purple onesie with feathers on it. Her eyes screaming rage and her mouth just waiting to release hell upon them. Oh, and holding a crossbow aimed at them.
"LULU! GET BACK HERE YOU TWIT AND LET ME SKIN YOU ALIVE TOGETHER WITH YOUR BLUE FRIEND!" She runs towards Happy, who only now realized that he should run. Or rather, fly.
"Lulu! She's scary!" Happy quickly flies past Lulu. Too fast for the woman to follow. Out of instinct, Lulu attaches her cane to Happy's backpack and flies with him.
"WHOO! This is awesome! How can it be you carry me!" she laughs and slowly climbs on Happy's back. Careful not to touch the wings.
"I am strong! And scared! Lulu, guide me to the Yordle wing! Please!" Happy flies jittery to avoid the crossbow bolts being fired after them. "AND DON'T YOU DARE COME BACK" Quinn shouts one more time before angrily slamming her door shut.
"That was amazing! Come! Let's go and do another! I bet cupcakes is still working! Then I'll guide you back!" she yips excitedly and points forward "FORWARD!" like she is riding a horseback.
"Fine… I have to say… It was fun in a way…" Happy smiles and follows Lulu's index finger. Flapping every now and then. "I think I am glad that I chose Yordles as my friends."
"Well you better be! Yordles are the best around here! All these other people are always so serious. Never any fun." Lulu settles gently on his back. "Right here please."
Happy turns right "What do you mean no fun? Ezreal sounded like he had fun."
"Pfff, Ezreal? He's only interested in girls and his own looks. He might be nice to you, but I learned to never trust him… got shot in the back because of him… literally." She pouts and crosses her arms
"Who can I trust? I mean, other than my team?" Happy flies a little slower. Actually interested in what Lulu has to say now.
"The Yordles of course, we might look a bit mean and evil sometimes. But our kind never lets another down. No-one left behind. No matter how big the casualty. At least for me. Oh, and you can trust one more, we call him Bard."
"So… the rest just."
"Stabs you in the back and leaves you for their own needs and some for their own amusement to watch you suffer. All of them are meanies. Trust nobody but the Yordles and Bard. But, do work with them and help them if they ask. Just because they can't be trusted, doesn't mean we should not let them trust us. Always be ready to catch whoever falls, and never let anyone down." She smiles. "That's how I see it. And that is why I like to play tricks on them. For payback!" she cheers the last words and smiles.
"You know… I don't know about that yet. But I'll trust you Lulu! And I will try not to let anyone down." Happy starts flying a little faster again. "Where to Lulu?"
"Fly slower and go right. Cupcakes has great hearing and we want to sneak up on her." Lulu says it in a whisper and snickers.
Happy does as told. And waits for further commands. Up… left… stop. And lands on the ground so Lulu can step off of his back. Happy reads the name on the door. Caitlyn.
"Be quiet, and watch." Lulu very carefully opens the door. Making sure to not produce any sound. Her eyes glittering with excitement of what she is going to do. In the room, a woman in purple clothing is hunched over a poorly lit table. Writing by the looks of it and holding a cupcake in another hand, with several bites taken out of it. An opened box with stacked up cupcakes placed beside her on the table. "Shh… Whimsy". A blue bolt quickly hits the box of cupcakes, making the box move a little.
The woman immediately looks up and at her box of cupcakes. She could swear one of the cupcakes moved. Inching closer to the box and squinting her eyes like inspecting them. "You moved…" she silently states. Her purple hair falling by her sides. And all of a sudden, the cupcakes scream and jump out of the box. Eyes popping from the sugary glaze and mouth forming just near the foil holding the cake in one piece. This made the woman scream a high pitched scream and fall backwards off of her chair. Her hat falling off of her head and exposing her shocked face. The cupcakes rush towards the door which the woman's eyes follow. After she catches sight of a wooden cane, her eyes go red in rage. "LULU! YOU TWAT COME BACK HERE BEFORE I HAVE TO LOCK YOU UP FOR TEMPERING WITH THE SHERRIF OF PILTOVER!"
"Run Happy! Or fly!" Lulu says with a laugh and starts running down the hallway. The cupcakes hopping after her. Happy was a little slow to react and sprouts his wings just when the woman bursts through the door holding something similar to a gun as happy recalled from Bisca. Her eyes lock onto Happy and without hesitation, she aims the gun at him. "Was it you!?" Happy stutters before flying off after Lulu. Faster than before and picking up Lulu on the way. Dodging bullets as he flies.
"Lulu! Yordle wing!" Happy shouts dodging another bigger bullet.
"Right! And down!" Lulu shouts happily. Her face just transformed into a big smile and letting her laughter sound through the whole Institute.
Sooo... Again, sorry this took so long. It's just my imagination can only take me that far. And as you may notice, the last part had a lot more detail than the first one because I wrote it on other days. I tried to make it smooth. anyways, thanks for reading
Sincerely, The voice you hear in your head when you are reading this.
