Chapter 10

"Only you and Slendy so far and no, I don't trust Zalgo with it at the moment." Nobu frowned.

"I don't blame you, kiddo. Now go take a seat, the lesson is starting." Splendy said as she walked away grinning.

"Well, you're happy." Ben laughed.

"I got my uncles back." Nobu smiled leaning on the desk and looking up at him. 'Cute.' Ben thought smiling to himself.

"I still find it weird that you're related to the Slender's though." Jeff said from beside her.

"Just cause I'm short and have tan skin and no tentacles?" she asked raising an eyebrow.

"Well, yea." He said.

"Don't forget she's also related to Zalgo." EJ called from in front of Jeff.

"Exactly. Besides this is my human –ish form, I forgot what my true form looks like." As she finished her sentence, Splendy spoke up.

"Ok guys, today's subject is poems. I want you to write a poem on killing, torture, and hunting for me. You have half an hour. There's paper here that you can use." He said as he handed out some paper and gave a pen to Nobu as she didn't have anything with her. Most the class whined, not wanting to do it but after Splendy's glare they got on with it.

"Ok, time's up, kiddies. Who wants to be first?" Splendy asked sitting on his desk.

"Me, me, me. I wanna go first." Toby shouted excitedly with his arm in the ait, jumping up and down in his seat.

"Good enthusiasm, come on up." He called as Toby ran to the front, poem in hand.

"Ready for my amazing poem?" he asked exited.

"Violets are red, my name is Toby.

I chop your face in half, with my hatchets.

You dead.

I LOVE PANCAKES!" he shouted the last part. Everyone burst out laughing as Splendy face palmed shaking his head. 'Oh meh gawd. That was brilliantly shit.' Nobu thought laughing.

"Hahaha, are you sure that was even a poem?" EJ asked while laughing, holding his stomach, making everyone laugh harder.

"Shut the fuck up. It was brilliant." Toby shouted angrily at him.

"Shure was Ticci." Nobu said wiping a tear away from under her bangs.

"Would you like to go next, Nobuki?" Splendy looked at her, eyes full of hope. She walked to the front, high fiving Toby on the way as he sat down.

"Roses are red and soon you'll be dead.

I'll drive you to insanity.

Inside your purgatory.

Your death will be slow and painful.

I love the look of terror on your face.

It's beautiful.

Sorry to say, but this rime is fucking terrible." She finished with a huge grin on her face, proud of her achievement. They all laughed again at her ending.

"Brilliant. But less swearing next time." Splendy said as she walked back to her desk and Jeff high fived her laughing.

The rest read out their poems as well. One thing that Nobu learned, is that some of these guys are terrible at writing poems. She was dying of laughter at the stuff they have written. She especially lost her shit on Jeff's poem.

By the end of the lesson she could easily say she haven't laughed so hard in quite a while.

"Ha, that was brilliant." Nobu said to Ben as they walked out to go to their next class.

"Yea. We usually mess about in Lit, like that a lot. No one really takes it seriously." EJ said from beside her.

"So what do we have next?" she asked excitedly. Of what she saw so far, she can safely say that school's gonna be a blast.

"Combat training." Jeff cheered.

"Offender's teaching it, so just be vary of the guy. He might try to rape you a little." Ben said warning her.

"Haha, I'd like to see him try." She laughed.

"You certainly don't lack in confidence, do you?" EJ smiled under his mask, amused by her.

"Nope." She grinned.

"Still, be careful around him and whatever you do. Do not take the rose he offers you." EJ warned messing up her hair.

"Oy, staph." She giggled grabbing his wrists and pushing him away as they all laughed.

They headed downstairs and towards the gym.

Nobu was surprised as they stepped in. It was huge. Like two football fields combined. There were all different sort of weapons scattered across the walls, multiples of them. She was impressed by the whole thing and she grinned as she looked up. It had a very high ceiling with tight ropes up there.

"You like it?" Jeff asked amused at her expression.

"Do i? I fakin love it!" she cheered.

"Haha, that's good. We will be spending a lot of time here. We have CT (combat training) every day." Ben laughed.

"Well, hello there little lamb." Nobu heard a deep purr by her ear. She squealed and jumped away from the source of the voice, moving into a battle stance.

"Here we go again." Ben said face palming.

"Why, what a beautiful young woman you are." The man purred, who Nobu identified as Offenderman.

"Uh, thanks, I guess." She said awkwardly, dropping her stance and scratching her cheek. No one really called her that before.

"A rose for a beauty. How I would love to taste your sweet-"he was cut off by Nobu frowning and kicking the rose out of his hand, then tripping him up as she put her foot on his neck, not too tight but threateningly enough.

"Sorry, but I'd prefer not to involve myself in incest . . . uncle Offendy." She glared down at him. "And if you ever try anything, I will rip your dick off."

Everyone just stared at them in shock. No one ever dared to go against him like that.

Suddenly he burst out laughing. "You haven't changed a bit, have you Nobu?" he grinned as he pushed her foot away and pulled her down into his lap to hug her.

"I got my memories back." She hugged him back.

"I missed you puppy, I really missed you." He said still laughing a little. "And what a fine woman you grew up to be. We need to catch up. You guys carry on with last week's stuff, same pairs. Go, go." Offendy stood up waving them away as he pulled Nobu to a secluded area of the gym and they sat down cross legged.

"So, puppy, tell me how was your life?" he asked with a smile.

"Haha, you never gonna quit with that nickname, will you?" She asked giggling as he shook his head. "I had a pretty shit life to be fair. It was only fun with dad and uncle Zal around."

"How so?" Offendy asked confused.

"Humans." She said rolling her eyes as the single word is supposed to explain all her problems. He understood, as he agrees.

"Yea, they push away what they don't know and fear. But you're here now." He comforted her.

"Yea. And I'm glad to be here, with everyone." She said smiling as she looked over at Ben and Jeff sparring.

"Uhh, do you have a crush on someone?" Offendy asked exited, moving closer to her.

"No. Why'd you ask?" she said raising an eyebrow.

"Oh your no fun." He said as she shrugged. "But you must have a guilty pleasure. Tell me." He purred.

"I think everyone does, but what makes you think I'll tell?" she laughed.

"Pretty please? I'll pet your belly." He cooed.

"Haha, one: I'm not in my full hound form for you to get away with that, and two: its personal." She grinned, remembering how he always used to do that and how much she loved it.

"Come on puppy, for me?" he pleaded.

"Ahhh, fine." Nobu gave up and moved close so she could whisper in his ear. He listened excitedly. "I like to read yaoi manga every once in a while." She said blushing slightly. Admitting to it was slightly more embarrassing than actually doing that.

"Huh? What's yoi?" Offender asked confused, looking at her.

"It's yaoi. And I can't believe you of all people don't know what it is. Shame on you." She said crossing her arms.

"Tell me." He grinned.

"*sigh* fine. Yaoi, also known as Boys' Love, is a Japanese genre of fictional media focusing on homoerotic romantic or sexual relationships between male characters, aimed at a female audience and usually created by female authors. Basically porn for girls." She explained whispering.

"Oh my. You're not as innocent as you look, are you?" he asked smirking as she smirked back with a shrug.

"Ok, now tell me. What was the worst thing you got away with doing?" he asked with a grin.

"Hm. Let me see." She said with a finger on her chin. "Ah, I got it. Haha. My little cat massacre."

"Let's talk about that." He said excitedly. 'My puppy's a killer.' He thought proudly.
