Calm, composed, gentleman, stoic. Those are the words used to describe Mephiles, right? But now, that wasn't what was happening. You see, the oh-so-strong Mephiles is a blushing mess as his brother introduced him to a certain ivory hedgehog. How peculiar?
That doesn't mean that Eclipse was clueless, though, he is very much aware. Indeed he was. A smirk showed on the corner of his mouth while his brother tried to hide his face while looking professional and intimidating. How? By covering his muzzle, which isn't really working out.
The ivory hedgehog then noticed the blushing dark hedgehog, tilting his head sideways making the dark hedgehog blush more, "What's wrong with Mephiles?" he asked.
"Just a bit chilly outside, ya know?" Eclipse casually said, covering for his brother (since he started it in the first place).
This only made the Ivory hedgehog to stare at him with a blank expression and a non-existent eyebrow raised. "It's summer." he bluntly replied,
All of a sudden, Eclipse's confidence washed away, "O-Oh yeah!" he laughed it off, trying to remove his sheepish expression.
"Alright..?" he moved his stare from the loud one to the quiet one, "So Mephiles, do you have the list of members that donated for the upcoming event, yet?" Silver asked with a kind smile.
"Oh yeah, I always forget that you're sect!" Eclipse laughed, patting his brother's back.
The hedgehog growled, elbowing his brother on the abdomen, making him let out a pained gasp, "And you keep forgetting that he is our student council president." Mephiles growled, him handing the list down to the ivory hedgehog, "I am ashamed of having you as my younger broth-"
Eclipse laughed loudly before Mephiles could even finish what his brother was saying, Silver's smile twitched, slowly he started crumpling the papers not noticeably. The quiet one immediately felt the anger seeping out of their student prefect leader.
Ah, looks like a cinnamon roll but could actually kill you. Soon, the black arms was plummeted to the floor, leaving the cement there to crack.
Eclipse let out a muffled, "Okay, I deserve that."
Silver is practically the mister perfect of the whole academy, so seeing him pissed is kind of rare. Though he wouldn't react when you insult him, but when you insult others and disrespect them, that's when you'll receive their wrath.
Then his menacing glare met with Mephiles, causing him to slightly flinch, he lifted a finger and pointed at the black hedgehog, "YOU!" He exhaled, calming himself down, "Teach him respect, please." the ivory hedgehog then walked off, mumbling about Eclipse also lacking respect to teachers.
Eclipse raised his head and grinned at his brother, only for Mephiles to place his foot on his head and made him smother the floor.
"Maybe I deserve this, too." Eclipse replied.
"You just embarrassed me in front of Silver, how can you not deserve this?" Mephiles growled.
Soon, a familiar black jackal walked pass them, a troubled expression on his face (which is actually rare sight). Mephiles then stopped what he was doing, giving Eclipse a chance to stand up and slowly escape.
The jackal then made it to their locker room, training wasn't done yet so he still had time. Soon enough, his squad watched their leader with a worried expression. They looked at each other, nodding their head.
Then they played rock paper scissors to determine who would be the first to speak, "H-Hey, boss!" he muttered out, the one with the orange cap greeted.
"Shouldn't you all be training?" the jackal asked, removing his jacket and placing on his football uniform.
"B-Boss, do you like.. -" Infinite turned his head, glaring at the guy making him squeak, "Shadow?" he asked.
The jackal with mismatched eyes calmed, but his cold expression not changing even for a moment. His answer was simple, clear, and harsh. "No ."
As soon as he said this, their captain, the red echidna and their coach which is a jaguar. The jaguar gave them all a toothy grin, looking at his members, only to frown.
"Where's the co-captain?" he asked, looking around.
"Maybe he's just late?" Knuckles shrugged, removing his helmet.
All of a sudden, the door slammed open, revealing a certain armadillo who was gasping for air desperately, "Sorry I'm late! Had to help a... Friend." he gave an apologetic smile, a blush now visible on his muzzle.
Knuckles gave him a knowing smile, only for him to chuckle sheepishly, "So, where's Sonic?" the armadillo asked,
"Sorry, Mighty, he excused himself early and is on his way home right now." Knuckles informed, "He looked so depressed, though." He admitted.
