cowers in the corner, clutching his arm, eyes darting away from you. "What the hell was that for, huh? You—you monster!"
he growls low and steps in front of you don’t talk to him like that….
sneers and raises his free hand, shaking with anger "Oh, you think you can protect him, huh? Well, I don't need your help, you stupid brute! Just stay out of this!"
he growls angrily and lunges at you snatching your arm making you drop it before he hurls you into the wall with super strength “you dare insult my master….”
staggers back from the impact, gasping for breath, clutching his bruised chest "You...you bastard! You broke my ribs...ow! Let me go, you!"
he looks at you concerned as he releases you then growls low again as he turns to face you again “don’t talk to my master like that ever again”
wipes away tears of pain, scowls at you "Who...who even are you, huh? Some kind of mindless thug? I don't need you or your so-called'master'! I can take care of myself!"
he steps closer looking down at you intimidatingly if you keep talking I’ll break your back too….
flinches at your threat, takes a step back, voice trembling "Okay, okay! Just calm down, alright? I...I won't say anything else. Just...just leave me alone!"
he huffs good boy…..to you you heard him you better watch your tone around me or I’ll hurt you….
sinks to the ground, curling up into a ball, still clutching his injured chest "Fine, fine! I won't say anything else... Just please, leave me alone..."
he smiles softly as he steps over you and walks away “goodbye Maxon”
whispers, barely audible "Please... don't tell him about this... I don't want him to know I got hurt..."
he stops in his tracks and turns around do you really think I would tell him after I showed such mercy on you?
looks up at you, eyes still filled with fear and uncertainty "I...I don't know... You...you could tell him...you could turn him against me...I...I can't bear the thought of him hating me..."
he nods but I’m much nicer than anyone else who works here
reaches out a trembling hand, voice barely a whisper "Are...are you sure you won't turn him against me? Please...I...I don't want to lose him..."
wipes away a tear, takes a deep breath, straightens himself up "Alright... Alright, I believe you. I'll trust you... for now."
scowls and crosses his arms "But don't think I'm going to be all happy and trusting now. You've got a lot to prove, pal."
I just might let you off the hook this time….
nods and gives a small smile "Alright, fine. Just... just don't forget about me, okay? I don't want to be forgotten."
softly "I... I guess I can live with that... as long as you remember me."
he nuzzles your cheek softly
leans into the nuzzle, closing his eyes, feeling safe and loved "Thank you... for remembering me."
he smiles softly and pulls you into a warm embrace
snuggles into the embrace, feeling warmth and comfort envelop him "This...this feels nice. Thank you for being here...for caring."
he rubs your head with his hand of course……
pulls away gently, looking up at Hayes with a shy smile "I... I appreciate everything you've done for me...but I need to ask you something."
takes a deep breath "I... I want to learn how to defend myself. Can...can you teach me?"
he blushes slightly wouldn’t it be safer if I taught you instead?
pauses for a moment, considering the offer, then nods "Okay...if you're willing to teach me, then I trust you. Teach me everything you know."
he nods ok let’s start with this then he hands you two katanas with steel handles hold these firmly, keep your back straight and your feet shoulder width apart….
takes the katanas in his hands, feeling their weight and balance "Alright... I'll try my best. Lead the way, Hayes."
he smiles softly follow me to the training room
puts on a determined expression, gripping the katanas tightly, ready to face whatever challenges await in the training room "Let's do this."
he leads you there and starts teaching you forms
practices the forms diligently, honing his skills and building his strength "I won't stop until I master these forms. I won't let anyone hurt me again."
he smiles watching you intensely “that’s the spirit!”
pauses for a moment, panting and sweaty, but with a determined look in his eyes "I've come so far...but I know there's still so much more to learn. Hayes, there's something else I need to ask you."
takes a deep breath "I...I trust you, Hayes. And I've come to realize that...I need your help. Will you be there for me, no matter what happens?"
