Big change

1421 Words
In the school hallway leading to the classroom, Alex walked with a stout body and a calm feeling, although he still got cynical stares from people around him, who always gossiped that Alex was an illegitimate child. But today he wasn't too uncomfortable, because he had a plan that could surprise everyone.  When he walked, from a distance he saw 3 bullies who often beat Alex, and every time they were walking, people would always step aside and let them go on without a hitch, so they looked like respected bosses. But Alex didn't do what other people do, he just kept walking with a smile, while looking at those three people, so that soon they would get closer and face each other.  When Alex and the three people were facing each other, they suddenly stopped and stared at each other, as if they both not wanting to step aside or give in. Therefore, the three bullies were furious, and they immediately rebuked Alex who was standing in front of them.  "Hey bastard, get out of the way quickly!"  "Why do I have to get out of the way? The path in this passage is still wide open, isn't it?" Alex replied as he put his hands in his pants pockets.  "What are you saying?!!" One of the bullies said while tugging on Alex's collar. But Alex didn't budge at all, and he just smiled, which made the bully student even more furious.  Then with full force, the bully student hit Alex in the face, even so hard, that the sound of bones breaking was heard, and it made everyone in there get surprised. However, it turned out that the broken bone was the bone from the bully's hand, who immediately screamed in pain with bruised hands like he had punched a hard object. It suddenly made everyone who was there feel terrified and amazed at the same time.  "Aakkkkhhhh!! My hands!"  Seeing that, his two friends immediately intended to give Alex a full blow too. They both punched Alex in the face and stomach, but Alex didn't budge at all, he just stood there with his hands in his pockets. While the two people who beat him, began to feel pain because they were like punching a hard object.  Then after the three of them staggered and grimaced in pain, Alex immediately approached them saying. "Are you satisfied? Now listen to me carefully, I will not fight you, because I have received 2 warning letters... But that doesn't mean I will submit lose to you. Remember this, from now on whatever you do to me will never affect to me at all, so you guys can never bother me again. Got it!!"  And with frightened faces at Alex's words, they said, "Y- yes, Understood. We- we're sorry." The three of them said as they stepped away from Alex then they are keep get going..  After that incident, the students who were around there began to give different views at Alex, they began to look reluctant and a little amazed at him. While Alex continued walking as usual towards his classroom.  Long story short, after school, Alex accompanied by Ryuji came to the boxing gym to practice again with Ren. Every day, they always do the same activities. Over and over, day after day, Alex and Ren continued to practice swordsmanship in the ring, little by little Alex began to memorize all the moves that Ren showed to him, and even Alex also added physical exercises to increase his muscle mass, so that later he could accommodate and use greater power in the fight against the enemy.  Alex continues to do this activity without stopping, and day by day he shows significant progress, although not too fast. Alex trains so hard that he doesn't want to disappoint Ren or Billy, especially Ren, because he wants to impress the older brother of the woman that he likes. Although it seems a bit difficult to impress Ren, because he is a very strict person and doesn't like to joke, in contrast to Ryuji who is relaxed and likes to joke. Even Ryuji always looks close with many people.  Now that Alex's life has started to change, he always wakes up early and prepares breakfast for his mother (Also for Ryuji), and he looks fitter now, moreover his posture has changed to become more muscular, so that wherever he goes he always looks to walk stoutly. And it also had an effect when he was at his school, because now more people admire his looks than talk about rumors about him. The female students at her school evefn seemed to be stunned when they saw Alex walking, and every break or when class time was empty, there was always a classmate who approached and invited Alex to chat. Unlike before when he was still shunned and ostracized.  But Alex's change didn't seem to impress all of students in the school, because secretly there was one person who didn't like it when Alex started to become popular and was approached by many people. The figure was none other than Henry, he felt increasingly angry since Alex was no longer isolated, and even now Alex rarely approached or even spoke to him.  Until one day, on a street that pretty quiet, when Alex was walking with Ryuji to go to the gym. Suddenly they were both intercepted by Henry, so Alex and Ryuji were surprised, but they both immediately smiled and say hello.  "Hi Henry, how are you?" Ask Alex.  "How are you bro?" Ryuji also greeted.  "Shut up! I hate you! You are the one who changed Alex." said Henry to Ryuji.  "What do you mean Henry?" Alex was confused.  "Why?? Why do you have so many friends now?" Henry asked.  "What's wrong with that?" Alex asked back.  "You are an illegitimate child. You should be shunned by people." Henry answered.  "Hey, watch your words, buddy!" Ryuji said.  "Henry, what are you talking about? You know that I am not an illegitimate child, right? and the rumors that are being spread are not true ... However you are my friend since childhood." said Alex.  "Who do you think is the one who has spread the rumor that you are an illegitimate child huh?" Henry asked.  Then Alex and Ryuji were stunned to hear those words from Henry's mouth. So Alex immediately asked again.  "Henry, you mean... The one who has been spreading the rumors about me, is you!"  "Yes." Henry answered.  "B- but, wh-why?"  "Because when we were little, you were my best friend. So I don't want you to play with other people... Therefore, because I know that since childhood your father has passed away, so I started spreading rumors to people who know you at school that you were an illegitimate child, so no one would want to hang out with you or be your friend. And by doing so, then I will continue to be your only friend forever. Hahaha." Henry answered, then black aura started to come out from his body.  "He's crazy." Ryuji muttered.  "Henry, n-no way." Alex was still surprised by Henry's statement.  Then Henry said. "And now, I will eliminate that person! That person who seems very close to you." The person Henry meant was Ryuji.  So after Henry said that, Ryuji started to realize something. While removing the bracelet in his hand, Ryuji whispered to Alex.  "Alex, be careful... He's been possessed by a shadow demon."  "What??"  "So far he has fulfilled his greedy desire, namely he wants you to only have one friend, so that day by day the shadow demon within him becomes stronger and can hide his existence neatly. But now that your condition is no longer what he wanted, so the shadow demon that resides within his body will soon rise out."  "A- all right, I understand." Alex said as he took off the bracelet on his hand. So now Alex and Ryuji are holding swords in their hands.  Henry who had been enveloped by a black aura, slowly began to transform into a shadow demon, now his entire body has been taken over by that big and jet black demon, he has a scary face and sharp nails on his hands, which he can use to rip apart the opponent's body. In this case, his opponents were Alex and Ryuji. While on the other hand, Alex is ready with his Sword named Shining blade, while Ryuji is with his White Dragon katana.
