*BRZZZZZZT! BRZZZZZZZZT! BRZZZZZZZZT!*

An irritating buzzing noise resonated in Crimson's ears as he slowly opened his heavy eyelid and reached his arm out, pounding the alarm clock several times to
turn it off before drifting back to sleep. After what had happened with him and Alyssa the other day, he was in no mood of waking up. It normally wasn't like him to 
take a day off on will, but after putting himself to shame, he would definitely rather stay away than run into Alyssa and inflict another bad situation. It wasn't long until
one of the other teachers, a boisterous 23 year old female Lucario found the Honedge still asleep and slowly sneaked up to him and...

"WAKE THE HELL UP!!!"

8:57 AM~

Crimson slugged up to the college building while digging into his ear which had been sore ever since he recieved a rude awakening from the Lucario teacher, after reaching the 
front doors, he looked on his left to see Alyssa leaning her back against her locker as if she was waiting for someone. Not wanting to tarnish his only friendship even more, 
Crimson slowly paced to the other direction to prevent any unwanted attention from the Glaceon and headed to class.

The rest of the day phased through like normal with the only exception of Crimson hiding from Alyssa everytime he caught sight of her during breaks, come Lunch Hour however, 
The Sword Pokemon looked far into the hallway to see the Glaceon... With Eliza the Houndoom's hand wrapped tight around her neck! Was she trying to kill her?! Crimson 
had been hiding in fear from Alyssa for nearly the whole day, but this time he was going to take a stand. Crimson's eye browed into an angered expression and marched up the 
Houndoom and pulled her attention from Alyssa.

"Leave her alone!!" Crimson yelled out, glaring at the Houndoom with a serious look on his face.

"Crimson!" Alyssa called out in relief, just before Eliza lessened her grip and looked back at Crimson with a smirk on her face.

And without any hesitation, Eliza and her group burst out in laughter, it was as if they really thought that a meek little thing like Crimson was going to take them all at once.
Many students including the ones that had fallen victim to the infamous group and crowded around. Eliza leered further at the Honedge who still making his serious face and 
not moving an inch.

"Aww, How cute! The little dagger is looking out for his best friend! And yet he thinks he can take on a Dark/Fire type like moi!" The other girls laughed even more at Eliza's 
sarcasm. The Houndoom was about to grapple at Alyssa's throat again when Crimson immediately jumped into her way with his arm stretched out, he wasn't going to let this bully 
of a fire hound inflict any more hurt on the only friend he had.

"Crimson, No! Save yourself!" Alyssa cried out for her Honedge friend's safety, with him being a Ghost/Steel type, he wouldn't last a second. Crimson felt a small sharp pain 
in his abdomen as Eliza kicked him out of the way and turned her focus back on to the cowering Glaceon. Crimson recovered in double quick time and saw Eliza about to break 
Alyssa's mouth with a painful punch. Crimson finally snapped and leaped at the Houndoom, swiping his hand across her face.

"I SAID 'LEAVE HER ALONE'!!!"

...

The Houndoom backed up a few steps before snapping back into reality, she slowly lifted her hand to her cheek to feel a wet line streak across her face and looked at it to see
blood. That was then Eliza finally snapped and growled ferociously at the Honedge, her fangs bared as she death glared at the Sword Pokemon who ready his stance for further attack.
With one swift leap, The Houndoom leaped at Crimson who screamed in near panic and swung his arm.

Crimson felt a hard force get pushed back from his hand but he refused to open his eye and instead awaited his incoming fate... Several seconds passed before Crimson was hit with
common sense and looked on the floor. It was Eliza who was holding her cheek and whimpering in pain, just before she could make her move, Crimson had unintentionally punched her 
in an act of defense. Eliza's group looked at her in shock at what just happened, they quickly looked up at Crimson before backing away slowly. The other student were completely 
stunned from the unexpected turn of events until Mrs. Aurora rushed in and saw Eliza on the floor, she glared at Crimson angrily in belief that it was an act of sexist violence.

"Crimson Suchiri! You should know better than to just mindlessly attack other students like that! This isn't like you, Crimson! My office, NOW!" The Suicune yelled out at the 
quivering Sword Pokemon who hung his head in shame until he and everyone else heard a deep voice echo in the locker halls.

"Calm yourself, Aurora. The young Honedge here is not the one to blame." Within seconds, the voice was revealed to be none other than the teacher of Dark and Macabre Arts; Mr. 
Darkrai who phased through the college floor in a nightmarish shrouded mist.

"Mr. Darkrai? You mean to tell me that Crimson actually had a reason for beating a student?!" Mrs. Aurora spoke out with a rather skeptical tone.

"That is true..." Darkrai continued. "The fact is, the Houndoom right there is the reason for this mess and more or less every other mess."

Darkrai cupped his hands and generated a pulsating dark purple sphere that swirled in ghostly wisps which slowly metamorphed into a ball that projected images from the past: 
Eliza bullying the other students, Crimson's Unintentional Self-Defence... It was all coming clear to Mrs. Aurora as she was pointed out for being so clueless for so long.

"Umm... Well, I..." The Suicune stammered, overcome with guilt and embarassment, she slowly turned to Eliza and the group in an annoyed glare.

"Detention for all you girls for... the rest of the term!" Mrs. Aurora blurted out without thinking, if she had known what the Houndoom and her posse's purpose was before, she 
would've stopped this mess from happening in the first place.

"But Miss, that's bullshit! Do you really expect to believe anything that creepy son of a bitch tells you?!" Mandy the Meowstic tried to intervene, but Mrs. Aurora was in no mood 
of arguing.

"GO, NOW!!" 

"Come on girls, it's over..." Eliza who had know regained all her strength stood back up with the hand still on her cheek lead the girls away in a defeated tone... For the first 
time ever, she had been beaten out of her league, she had met her match and was busted for everything she had.

Crimson watched the bully group that was once feared take their leave before turning to Mrs. Aurora with a face of remorse.

"I'm really sorry, Crimson. If I had known that Eliza was behind everything, I wouldn't have snapped at you..." The Suicune's lips started to quiver in regret until she felt 
Crimson's arm on her shoulder in a sympathetic manner with that face that said 'Don't worry about it, you didn't know'.

Mrs. Aurora smiled back at Honedge, starting to feel a little better before heading to her office with a renewed confidence. That was when Crimson heard the other students cheer 
for him. Thanks to Crimson, the college was now free from the vile bullies that took charge of the building. Crimson and Alyssa were suddenly crowded and lifted into the air, the 
students continued to cheer for their hero and dubbed him as 'The College Slayer'.

"Crimson! Crimson! Crimson! Crimson! Crimson! Crimson! Crimson!" The students chanted and chanted in honour of the Honedge's fearless victory, Alyssa suddenly leaped over and 
wrapped Crimson in a thankful hug, which made him blush the entire way.

11:37 PM - After College ~ Secluded Area

Eliza the Houndoom stomped around the ground in a fit of rage, kicking any rocks and cans away in the process with her allies trying to calm her down but to no avail.

"Eliza, chill out! It's just a small screw up!" Zara the Zoroark was the first to intervene but the only response she got was a furious Eliza who roared at her with flames 
spewing out of her mouth.

"Chill out?!! IT'S MY FUCKING REPUTATION!!" The other girls backed away after the outburst, not wanting to recieve any possibilities of Eliza taking her anger out on them.

"THAT GOD DAMN LITTLE CARVING KNIFE HAD THE BALLS TO JUST STEP IN AND MESS WITH US JUST TO PROTECT HIS BITCH OF A FRIEND!!! IF I EVER GRAB A HOLD OF THAT HONEDGE'S NECK I'LL..."

Eliza suddenly stopped, confusing the other girls.

"WE don't have to kill him... We can make HIM kill himself..." Eliza muttered out as she grew a twisted, sadistic grin on her face...

"We just need to find a way... And I think I know how..." Eliza finished, turning her head...

...at the window...

...where the personal student files were stored.
