Athaliah Kensington's Pov.
After cleaning myself, I came out of the restroom and saw Zeus waiting for me.
"What did you say to Tyler?"
I rolled my eyes. He has been eating my brains out since I left the lunchroom.
"Nothing you should worry about."
"Sugar, jokes aside, both the bully squads know about you. And your ignorance and insults towards them made your school life here more difficult."
"Z, you don't need to worry about me. Get to your class, I have somewhere to be at."
"Hey."
"What?" I turned back towards him and asked, getting irritated.
"You just gave me a nickname."
I did not realize what came out of my mouth. Without saying anything, I turned back and left for the alley where I invited Tyler and his friends for their doom.
Luckily, Zeus did not follow me.
I reached the place and leaned on the fence. No one gets to insult me and not bear the consequences.
"You really want to get fucked by me, huh?" said Tyler coming towards me.
"That's why you didn't say anything in cafeteria."
He concluded his own theory.
All the seven boys stand in a half-circle surrounding me, sneers on their faces and confidence in their stances.
However, my stance is calm, measured, and eyes gleam with focused determination.
"I invited you here to settle scores."
"Oh, are you going to beat us up?" Saying this, Liam whose name Zeus told me earlier, laughed.
"That pretty seems the solution."
Tyler came forward and pushed me back on the fence and said,
"You don't want to see what I do to the ones I bully."
"You too."
As soon as the words left my mouth, Liam charges at me, swinging wildly, trying to land a punch to my face. But I am too quick. I duck under his fist, my movements smooth like water flowing around a stone. In one fluid motion, I use his momentum against him, grabbing his arm and twisting it behind his back, forcing him down to his knees. Before he could react, I delivered a quick, precise knee to his midsection. He gasps, crumpling to the ground in pain.
The remaining boys hesitate for a moment, exchanging uncertain looks. I don't give them a chance to regroup. I dart forward, landing a solid roundhouse kick to the chest of the second boy, sending him tumbling backward. He crashes into the wall, dazed and disoriented.
The third boy steps forward, more cautious, but still confident. He throws a punch, aiming for my head. I sidestepped, effortlessly evading the strike. In one swift motion, I grabbed his wrist, spun behind him, and slammed his arm to the ground, pinning him with a well-placed knee to his back. He grunts in pain, struggling to break free but unable to move.
The fourth boy charges from the side, trying to catch me off guard. But I anticipated his move, spinning around and delivering a swift elbow to his jaw. He stumbles back, clutching his face in shock, disoriented. He doesn't have time to recover as I followed through, landing a punch to his solar plexus, leaving him gasping for breath.
Two more boys move in together, one from each side, trying to trap me. But I slid to the left, ducking under one boy's outstretched arm, and landed a quick kick to his knee, causing him to buckle. As he fell, I stepped forward, delivering a knee to his face. The other boy tries to grab me from behind, but I twisted, elbowing him in the stomach and then performing a swift backhanded strike to his temple. He collapses to the ground, unconscious.
Only Tyler remains. His breathing is heavy, and there's a look of genuine fear in his eyes now. He hesitates, glancing at his fallen friends, realizing this isn't a fight he can win. But he charges anyway, desperation in his movements. I barely flinched. As he lunges at me, I sidestepped, grabbed his arm mid-swing, and used his own momentum to throw him to the ground with a flawless judo throw. He lands hard, his breath knocked out of him, and I am on him in an instant, pinning him to the ground with a knee on his chest.
"Now, looks like the score settled a little." I said.
"Let me go." He pleaded, his voice shivering.
"Giving up so soon. I have barely started yet."
"Ple...... Please."
I grabbed his hair in a painful fist while he screamed,
"Now, say sorry to me."
"I.... I am so... sorry."
"No. Not like this. I didn't feel your sorry genuine."
"I.. am ..... I am sor..sorry, please."
I leaned towards his face and said,
"If I ever see you or your friends bully anyone, I will not hesitate to rip your head off. Do you understand?"
"Ye...Yes..Please."
I left him and his friends in pain and walked away.
"Oh my god."
I stilled, hearing the voice of Zeus.
"What a show. You beat their asses."
I eyed him suspiciously.
"You were spying on me."
"That's not the point. The point is that you beat one of the most despicable groups of this school."
I remained silent.
"Wow. You really weren't joking when you said you could handle bullying."
He made boxing hands in front of me and said,
"Do I need to be cautious of you from now onwards?"
Hearing this, I laughed. Like actually laughed. It has been a long time since I genuinely laughed.
"No, I don't beat up my friends." I replied.
"Really, I am your friend now?"
"You became my friend when I gave you a nickname, Z."
"Yes." He has a bright, wide smile on his face and his eyes are slightly squinted with happiness. His body is slightly tilted, and he is making a fist pump with one arm raised in the air, signaling a moment of triumph. His posture conveys excitement and a sense of accomplishment, as if he's celebrating a personal victory.
"I can't believe I am friends with one of the strongest persons of my school."
"Now you are exaggerating." I replied, turning my back and moving to my next class.
We left the area bickering more.
Reuben Kensington's Pov.
After Athaliah left the lunchroom, I was fuming with anger. She was soaked with water. It was clear that someone had poured water on her. But she didn't want us to know that.
Why?
But one thing is clear. The one who dared to mess with a Kensington will pay for their deeds.
I was about to leave the cafeteria, but Royce stopped me and said,
"Give her some time. We will get to know the end of it."
"You also saw what happened." I seethed in anger.
"Let's wait till the break is over." Kaelen suggested.
I agreed. It would be better for everyone not to see what I am going to do to Tyler. We all three sat down in the cafeteria.
This break was agonizing. Every second of this break went by me thinking of ways to teach Tyler a lesson that he will never forget in his life.
After the break, we left to search for Tyler and his friends. We reached the back alley after searching for him in the whole school.
However, what we saw there made us stunned.
Tyler and his group were laying on the floor, beaten up.
Who did that?
He saw us and called us for help.
"Hey, Reuben. It's good you came. Now we will show her what it is to mess with us."
"Who did this?" asked Royce.
"That girl."
"Who?" asked Kaelen.
"That girl with purple eyes." replied Liam.
What the actual fuck?
Athaliah beat them all?
"Who was with her to beat you like shit?" asked Kaelen.
"Who else do you think? I am sure it must be Zeus. He is getting way to close to her." I replied.
Even at the lunchroom, those two seemed close.
"No." said Liam.
"Then who?" asked Royce.
Of Course, we want to know and reward that person who did what we were about to do.
"It was her. That purple eyed girl. I don't know her name, but she knows how to fight." One of Tyler's friends said.
Did Athaliah really beat them? I can't believe it.
"I am going to make her regret. I will show her how it feels to get beaten up. I will now surely fuck the life out of her." said Tyler in an angry and painful tone.
Before he could utter any other nonsense, I charged at him.
Royce and Kaelen joined me.
I landed a quick jab to Tyler's ribs, causing him to stumble backward. Royce swept his leg behind a weak-kneed Liam, sending him crashing to the ground. One of them lunges, but the Kaelen sidestepped, grabbing him by the arm and flipping him onto the hard concrete with practiced ease.
We beat them mercilessly till they were nearly unconscious.
"Stay away from her. If I ever see any of you near her, I will personally slit your throats." I spat and left with Royce and Kalen.
We saw the guard rushing towards them, probably taking them to the hospital.
It's nothing new for us to beat someone. People should know better than to piss us off.
Now, we need a good talk with Athaliah. She needs to understand that she should tell these things to her brothers. If not me, she could tell Kaelen. That bastard has been close to her than all of us. And he never fails to rub it in our faces that he was the one who got to cuddle with her.
This was the reason why our brothers were hell bent on changing her decision to make it public that she is our sister. But she never listens.
I need to talk about this with Aldric also.
Unknown Pov.
I saw her. After 68 hours, 37 minutes and 17 seconds, I saw her at school. She was wearing the regular uniform; however, even in that regular uniform she was looking exquisite. I don't have words to describe. I silently followed her throughout her school hours.
Zeus has befriended her. It is good that she has someone who can warn her of the dangers of this school. When I saw what Tyler was doing with her, I saw red. All I wanted to do was bash his head at one of the tables. But I didn't intervene. I know that she likes to handle her problems on her own.
She was controlling her anger when speaking to Tyler. I wanted to know what she said. So, I discreetly followed her and man, the sight I saw was Jaw-dropping.
Seeing her taking down seven bulky boys, singlehandedly, was an unforgettable view. I knew what she was capable of. What she had endured to become like this. Yet I can't help her fight those demons.
I didn't meet her today, but I will soon. I am waiting for the moment when we will meet again. I want to see how she hides her expression. Besides, I want to see if she is as intelligent as she shows, to decipher my message.
See you soon.
Purple.
