Notes: Muia (Mi-u-a): it's like ms., but it's for a Felilian males.

Johnny

"Come in."

The big lug, who unfairly forced me to come back to the stupid guardian headquarters, roughly pushed me into the emperors office, which made me stumble and almost fall on my face. I glared at him, and then brought my attention back to the emperor. The Carilian took a low bow; I on the other hand had to get on my hand and knees, pressing my forehead to the ground. It was so degrading, but the emperor, despite the fact that he is no older then about eighteen to twenty years old, had a higher status in school so I had to show respect. For now at least.

The big lug began to speak "Your excellency, I have brought to misbehaving student."

I hissed "I wasn't doing anything you stupid piece of-"

The Carilian snarled "Do not speak, unless spoken to!"

"Make me!"

His face became formed into the look vicious canine, his lips pulled back to reveal long sharp fangs "I will-"

"Enough Antonio, please leave."

The big lug became calmed the moment he got his orders, he bowed again then left the room, but he did shoot me a couple death glares before he went out the door. He didn't scare me one bit though, I've seen scarier things (It's called Blake coming home drunk at for in the morning.)

"Please sit, Johnny." The emperor waved his hand to one of the two seats in front of his desk.

I sat down in one of the chairs, careful to keep my eyes from peering at the emperor's face. It must be nice to be an emperor, you get total control of the school and have everyone bowing at your feet no matter how old they are..

"Now Johnny, do you know why you have been sent here?"

"Well-"

"Look up when you talk, Johnny, there's nothing to be afraid of."

If only he was right about that, there were many things I had to be afraid of in life, but I wasn't going to let him in on my personal life "Sorry."

I looked him in the eyes and spoke again "I'm here because I've been wrongly accused of a crime!"

His brows raised "Oh?"

"Yes."

He leaned back into his chair "Then tell me what happened."

"Why should I even explain, I'll still be blamed for everything."

He tilted his head "whether or not if you have to pay for the crime, I still want to hear what happened."

I stared at him for a while then begin the story "it was the beginning of my third class, home economics, I was minding my own business, because I know for a fact that starting trouble is meaningless, but it doesn't mean that someone else with start the trouble."

Earlier that day, I was working on the assignment, we were told to make a meal out of leftover ingredients left by the previous class. I knew exactly how to whip up something with what I got, so I made stew, a very spicy stew. Since this was a partner assignment, my partner had to taste the food to see if it was good or not.

Unfortunately for me, people despise me so-

"Why do they despise you?"

I scowled "as if you don't know."

The emperor's face was blank, so I couldn't tell if he was surprised, because he's been caught in his own lie or if he really didn't know anything "If you don't want to tell me that's ok, please continue."

I stayed quiet for a bit, I knew he was the emperor and all, but I hate it when vile people order me around. So I refused to speak until I was ready. The emperor said nothing at first, but when he realized what I was doing he said "I only want to hear your side of the story Jonathan-"

"Johnny, not Jonathan."

A pause "Fine, Johnny it is then." he rolled his eyes then muttered "*Hu johhiv'w ob okk," No manners at all.

I snorted "I have manners, unlike you."

His eyes widen "Oh, you understand Zarman, not many people here really speak the language here, even though it is our own language..."

"Can I continue or do you want to talk about how you first came to this planet after the desolation of the old world?"

He smirked, which I didn't expect "You know I can have you punished for being so disrespectful, right?"

I didn't flinch even though I was scared out of my mind "Y-yeah, but I'm not scared."

His face was blank again "I know you're scared, but you're lucky I'm not the type of Carilian who's ok with hitting delicate Felilians."

"Who are you-"

"Please continue Johnny."

I pursed my lips, then began again "Anyways, many people despise me in this school, so I have to deal with a lot of crap every day."

"Such as?"

I shrugged "I get bullied in the hallways, people like to spread rumors are all over the school about me and stuff."

"I see, what did you do-"

"Hey, let's stick with the present situation for now, ok?"

He frowned "Fine, continue."

So anyways, since I'm not liked much in this school, it would mean people wouldn't want to be paired with someone me. Most likely of fear of getting bullied for being around me at all.

"The point Johnny, get to the point."

"Fine, well anyways, when I was halfway finish with the assignment"

My partner wanted to taste the food because they didn't trust my cooking skills at all, so when he taste tested the stew, he started running all over the screaming 'Spicy, too spicy!' When Doetan. Malack came to see what was all of the commotion about, the little asshole pointed at me and said I deliberately try to kill him by spicing up the food too much (as if you can die from eating spicy food.) Well didn't deliberately do anything to him, I even tasted the stew and it was nowhere near spicy enough to cause someone to run around the room like an idiot.

"Didn't Doetan.Malack taste the stew?"

"No, I even asked him to taste it, but he simply refused and called the guardians on me!"

"I see..."

"Plus why should I get in trouble for someone else who acts like a fool when they eat something was too spicy for them, I mean do you act like that when it happens to you?"

"I won't lie, I don't do that."

"See, you see!"

The emperor got up from his desk then walked towards the door "Well, now that I've heard your side of the story, I will like to taste this stew as well as watch the security footage." He looked back at me "You can go to your next class, I will call for you when we finish investigating the incidence."

"I'm not lying!"

"I didn't say you were, just that I need to get all the evidence and investigate."

I frown "Ok..." I grabbed my bag then left the room.

I had a feeling that I would most likely end up getting punished for the crime, even though I didn't do it. Well it can't be helped, I guess.

I dipped a finger in the stew than sucked it off. Let me just say one thing, this was the most delicious stew I have ever eaten, but it need more hot sauce. My gaze shifted to Doetan.Malack "Who was the student who was partnered with Johnny again?"

"Alexander Dupree, your excellency."

"We'll send Muia.Dupree to my office, and I would like you to apologize to Muia.Chailz."

Doetan.Malack looked surprised by this "b-but your excellency-"

I raised a brow "What?"

He flinched, then stared at the floor "Well, I don't think I should apologize to people like, Muia Chailz, your excellents"

"And why not, he was wrongly accused and from what I saw of the security footage, Muia.Dupree was pretending." In the footage, it showed Dupree putting hot sauce in his mouth then afterwards he tasted the stew.

"Well, it's because...you know why, your excellency"

I sighed "Whatever the reason it may be, you will still treat every student fairly, is that clear?"

Doetan.Malack hesitated then answered "Yes, your excellents."

I glared at him "Good."

I was about to walk out of the classroom, but then I turned my gaze back on the stew "...before I go though, I would like a bowl of that stew, I haven't eaten lunch yet."

After I ate about three bowls of that stew, I went to find Johnny. I found him outside on the fields, eating a sandwich alone in the bleachers. I went over to him, waving my hand "There you are Johnny, I was looking for you."

He glared at me "Come to punish me, before you do can I ate least eat my meal in peace."

I stopped in my tracks "Why do you believe you're in trouble?"

He blinked "I'm not?"

I shook my head "No, you're not, the security footage shows that your partner was acting out as you said."

Johnny blushed, he shifted in his seat, a soft purr escaped his throat "Wow, that's a first time someone actually believe me."

"Well if there is proof to your innocence then it's obvious that you are innocent, now why do you think you were going to get in trouble?"

Johnny didn't meet my gaze "I always get blamed for things that's why."

"Why's that?"

He was silent, and showed no signs of going to tell me "If I told you, you'll treat me like I'm different too and so far you're the only person who hasn't."

For some reason I didn't want to know what he done anymore, but at the same time I still wanted to know "Well, if you don't want to tell me you don't have to, just know that not everyone is your enemy."

He was silent again; he sighed and shook his head "If only I could believe that, too many times have I told myself that and look where I end up."

Before I could ask what he meant by that, but he got up and left. I watched him leave, but I didn't go after him. Though, if what he says is true about all the bullying go on, than I would help him in anyway.
