"Bullies" by meadows_lark
She turns and storms off, her friends following uncertainly, the already near-empty halls echoing with their harsh footsteps.
“I’m sorry,” the Gelert says, compassion coloring her voice. She has gathered the books and kneels beside you again.
“I don’t know you.” Your voice is hoarse, but your vision has cleared and the tears are leaking from the corners of your eyes more slowly.
“I’m new here,” she says. She takes the backpack and carefully places the books, taking extra care with the torn one. “I transferred here from a Neoschool in Roo Island. I saw you in math class, and it made me so mad when they were laughing.”
Touched and confused by this sudden support, you mumble your thanks and take your backpack from her outstretched paws. Her courage astounds you; she is new here, and yet she is braver than anyone who walked past you during your moment of need.
“Here,” she says, standing up and offering you her paw. “We can walk home together. Do you have siblings?”
“Two sisters and a brother,” you mumble, hesitating at her offer. “We don’t wait for each other. They’re probably already gone.”
“That’s okay,” she says, cheerfully. “You’ve got me.”
You take her paw and she helps you to your feet.
“I’m Adelaine. What’s your name?” she adds, watching as you zip your backpack up and pull it over your shoulder.
You look at her cautiously, and as she smiles at you, you can’t help but smile back, for the first time in what seems like months.

 Return to Lynwood: Part One
Of course Terra was a grown owner, but Isengrim could not help but dote on her. She had saved him from himself, showed him the utmost kindness and patience when he was at his worst, and inspired him to have the strength to change, and for that he owed her the world.
But he had yet to figure out a way to obtain the world for her, so for now he would make do with being the best Neopet he could be for her.

 Welcome to White River: Part Three
She breathed in slowly, steeling herself as she entered.
She could feel the change in the air as she entered, as heads slowly began to turn and stare. She spotted Enid, wearing a kilt and a dark brown shirt, a long swath of tartan fabric draping down her shoulder across her chest. She smiled, and gave Portia a thumbs up.
