Say something nice! Or I will kill you

by azebra117

This is a story of Taz's life, from her quinceañera all the way to the musical Starship. This includes how she met Up and how she became a Starship Ranger. Rated T for violence and some Spanish swears. I do not own Starship or Starkid or Taz or Up, just the plotline and my own characters

25. Bullies

Sorry haven't posted in a few days, I... forgot. Mondays are usually going to be very busy for me, cause I have school, cross country, homework, then dance so most of the time I might not be able to post on mondays. Just letting you know

Part 24: Bullies

Taz made her way to the Mess Hall for dinner that night and was greeted with applause, she looked around confusedly and saw that they were cheering for her. Once she sat down she was surrounded, her roommates were there as well as many people she saw in classes but never talked with

"You're the first person to skip an Officer position since Lieutenant Up!"
"Was the test hard? I'm taking it next week and I'm nervous"
"Did you really pass with full marks?"
"You don't even speak fluent English!"

That got her, standing up she looked at the boy that spoke

"What did jou just say?"

"Uh… nothing I just said… it's amazing you… passed because… you don't even speak… fluent… English…" The boy trailed off as Taz towered over him

"So what jou idiota? Why would that matter? It gives me an advantage cuz I can talk with more people!"

"It's true though" Taz turned to see a large boy standing there

"What's true?" Taz snarled

"You can't speak fluent English. You hide yourself in books at the library, I've seen you in there with Specs. Sure you're teaching her Spanish" The boy smiled as his gang surrounded him, "I bet they're just giving you special treatment or something because Up took pity on you"

"Lieutenant Up to you" Up growled. He shoved his way through the crowd to stand by Taz. The boy backed away a little but still held his ground

"See, she's only brave when Up's by her side" The boy whispered none too quietly. Taz and Up exchanged a glance, then Taz jumped on Up's back and they ran after the bullies. The bullies took one look at the pair of them and scampered. They weren't even that fast, and Up got them cornered in an alley and they all fell into a dumpster.

"Take that jou estupido!" Taz shouted at them as they tried to climb out but kept falling over.

Remember that time, when the bullies were picking on me cause I so little and I like to read? And I got on your back and we chased them into a DUMPSTER! That was tough!
