Chapter 10 - Beware the Quiet Ones. 

	Mitchel makes his way to the cafeteria, which for once seems completely empty. The otter goes to the back into the main kitchen and looks over the four fridges for a moment. He figures he’ll be careful and pick something from the blue fridge, so as not to risk Cyko’s health as he’s not fully sure how all this works.  

	Exiting the cafeteria, Mitchel takes the meal to Cyko’s bedroom, hoping that the hedgehog is still asleep, Mitchel opens the door quietly. He looks around a bit, and smiles softly seeing that Cyko does indeed still seem to be sleeping as he enters. He walks over to the bed, seeing one of the Hedgehog’s black ears flick from the click of the latch on his door. Taking a seat on the bed, Mitch clears his throat a bit and says, "I brought you a snack."

	Cyko grunts softly as he looks to Mitch, half acknowledging him, half ignoring him as he turns away from you and pulls a pillow over his head trying to go back to sleep.

	Mitchel sighs, "You have to eat."

	Cyko mumbles something under the pillow in reply.

	Mitchel pokes Cyko in the butt and says with a slight grin, "Hey, I let you ride me raw, the least you can do is actually talk to me."

	Cyko sighs and slowly sits up. "Fine." He replies, he doesn't sound annoyed and seems much calmer then he was earlier "Jes nice to have a peaceful sleep after fidgeting all last night..." He says with a yawn and stretches a bit. 

	Mitchel nods, handing him the plate, "Yah, I bet. I'll help you get to sleep tonight too."

	"Oh? How so?" Cyko asks as he eats. 

	Mitch idly wonders if Cyko even bothers to chew with how quickly the hedgehog devours it all. One second there was food on the plate, and the next, none. Mitchel shakes his head a bit with a slight chuckle and shrugs at the question, "Considering your punishment, there's really only one way, right?"

	Cyko blinks at that, blushing some as it dawns on him, his mind shakes free of the fog of sleep and lust that it’s been in for the past day. "Yah, guess so..." He replies and squirms some on his bed as now with food on his stomach his heat is starting to make itself known again.

	"Get dressed, we can go for a walk and get some air, your room smells like pussy." Mitchel says.

	Cyko grins softly "Sumthin wrong with smelling like pussy?" He asks as he looks over to Mitchel.

	Mitchel smirks, "Yah, my dick needs a rest." He grabs the dishes, "I'm going to drop these off in the kitchen, meet me outside the cafeteria." Cyko nods, sighs softly, and gets up to get dressed as Mitchel leaves. 

----------

	Mitchel is waiting outside the cafeteria by the time Cyko is dressed and ready. The hedgehog eventually joins the otter. It seems he may have had some modifications done to some of his clothes or Miss Nightfang gave him stuff to wear during his punishment. While still very masculine in look, his clothes seem of more feminine in design to show off his body, such as the low rider jeans that look very easy to slip off for a fuck. Cyko doesn't seem too thrilled about being out of his room in this state.

	Mitchel feels for him, "At least it isn't a miniskirt, huh?" 

	Cyko replies with a bit of a grumble, "Yea, I guess..."

	Mitch nods, and quickly changes the subject, "So, what is there to do in this school?"

	Cyko looks to him. "I'm not really sure; I know there's a gym. But other then classes I tend ta stay in my room to avoid tha guys and gals that wanna fuck me…"

	Mitchel nods, and then says, "I talked to Miss Nightfang... I tried to get her to forgive you and stop the punishment, but whatever you said to her when you took all the blame really stuck, she wouldn't have anything to do with it."

	Cyko looks at Mitch and shakes his head. "Its cuz I made my own deal wit’ 'er. I told 'er e'erthin. And that iffen she left ya outta this, I'd take whutever punishment she could come up wit wit'out complaint. Mighta thought twice iffen I knew it'd be this bad..."

	Mitchel nods again, "Thanks." He says with a soft smile and then sets off in a random direction. "What are we going to do about your dad?"

	Cyko follows next to the otter. "Ignore tha bastard."

	Mitchel frowns, "After what he did?"

	Cyko shrugs. "And give 'im any satisfaction in this?" He asks "Whut would ya suggest?"

	Mitchel shrugs, "I don't know... I can't think of anything that wouldn't hurt us worse."

	Cyko chuckles softly "Ah whut do ya thin 'e kin do that's worse?"

	Mitchel shakes his head, "Not like that... I was thinking we could go to one of those sperm banks and knock you up with whatever species he hates the most, but let’s face it, that's worse for you than him."

	Cyko grins softly "Yah, I'd likely have ta hurt ya iffen ya tried that. I mean I'd want ta stick it ta 'im but I'd prefer it in a way that doesn't involve something sticking it in me first." He replied with a soft laugh. 

	Mitchel nods quietly, not sure what else to say.

	"Mice, btw..." Cyko adds.

	Mitchel blinks, and then asks cautiously, "Is that why you really hate Sam so much?"

	Cyko sighs "I dun 'ate 'er... Mosta that wuz anger, but yea... It 'as roots from 'im. I dun actively 'ate mice, but at tha same time I mighta not been as upset if it was sumone else..." He's not pleased with that, but prejudice tends to get passed down between generations. 

	Mitchel nods, and then says, "Maybe you should try to hang out with Sam... Make friends with her. She's a good person, and having a mouse as a close friend is likely to really torque off your dad."

	Cyko nods "I kin try, at least..."

	Mitchel nods and finally having a destination rather than just random walking, leads the way to her room. He looks to Cyko, "Best to start with an apology." and he motions to the door.

	Cyko grumbles a bit "I didn’t mean now..." He knew Mitchel was right, and has no reason not to, but he was still not comfortable seeing anyone right now. 

	Mitchel shrugs, "Waiting will only make it worse, trust me."

	Cyko looks at Mitch, "T'morra isn't gonna be much wor..." Before Cyko can finish that statement the door opens, and a half-dressed Sam answer the door. 

	Sam is wearing baggy shirt and panties, from how her breasts sag some it’s easy to tell she's not wearing a bra underneath. She rarely stays fully dressed when in her room, as this is more comfortable to her. "Oh, Hi; I thought I heard voices out here." 

	Mitchel smiles some, "Hey Sam. Cyko's having a hard day, and I know you have always managed to cheer me up, so I thought I would bring him by."

	Sam looks to Cyko, there is a very minor narrowing of her eyes at the hedgehog. There is no hate, but an air of dislike. Either due to yesterday's outburst or maybe the two have a bit of a history it’s hard to tell. "So you brought the Mouse-hater to me?" She asks with a playful giggle, it seems that either Cyko or his father's prejudice is known to her and likely others.

	Mitchel smiles at Sam and says, "Oh come on, his dad hates mice, not him. And since his dad is the reason I got cut, I thought how best to repay him, but to get his son over such idiotic prejudices." he then nudges Cyko in the ribs gently.

	Cyko grunts softly at the nudge and nods. "I-I am, well... Sorry fer my outburst yesterday and uh... callin ya all those names..." He replies, he's honest but it’s still a bit of pulling teeth for him. Mitchel smiles softly hearing the apology.

	Sam smiles and nods softly "Yeah, it’s okay. People say things in anger that they don't really mean..."

	Mitchel looks to Sam and asks, "Can we come in and chat a bit, just hang out?" Knowing that Cyko doesn't want to be exposed in the hall, and suspecting that Sam doesn't want to lounge about in panties and shirt in the hall either.

	Sam nods and allows the other two in. It maybe cliché, but her room is pink. Not a bright in-your-face pink, but a soft gentle pink. It seems almost like a celebration of femininity. Of course that makes sense, as Sam's been striving for that for the past few years and just recently achieved it.

	Mitchel does his best to facilitate small talk amidst the three of them, not trying to drive anything in any particular direction, just happy to be hanging out with two of his friends until dinner. If nothing else, he doesn't want two of the only people he knows to be at each other's throats. Things go decently well, though there doesn't really seem to be much to talk about. Sam and Cyko have very different interests and tastes. Cyko being more into music while Sam is more an unashamed geek that loves more the cute and or silly things like My Little Pony. But on the bright side there is neither hatred nor do they want to hurt each other. 

	Mitchel smiles softly and listens to each talk about their hobbies and such, as it is, still better than sitting in his or Cyko's room doing nothing. When time comes for dinner, Mitch stands up and says, "We'll get out of your hair so you can get ready for dinner. See ya there." He smiles politely and heads towards the door. 

	Cyko nods “Yeah, uh… See you around…” He says and stands up as well, letting Sam get dressed; wanting to get out of the pink room. Not because of anything against Sam, she’s kinda cool in a geeky way he guessed, but her room sorta represents his worst fears... 

----------

	Mitchel leads the way to the cafeteria and heads for Cyko's usual seat. Spotting Rhapsody, he blushes and splays his ears a bit. He timidly waves thankful for her help, but deeply humiliated by the whole experience at the same time.

	Rhapsody nods gently back to Mitch for her nothing has changed. She was simply helping someone she saw as friend because she could, just as she would for any of the other few friends she has. 

	Cyko takes his usual seat, and looks around, while no one is really paying him much attention, he gets a few brief looks from some of the guys, though he seems almost paranoid of being out in the open.

	Mitchel looks to Cyko and smiles, "Dude, relax, you have me. Ignore them."

	Cyko nods softly "Yea, jest a 'ard 'abit to break..." He says relaxing a bit, though it doesn't last long when a dark gray cat comes over grinning. 

"My, if it isn't the two newest love birds in school. Found comfort in fucking each other yet? If not I could give you both a go and show you what as REAL man is like." He says with a wide slimy grin to the both of them.

	Mitchel glances up at the cat and frowns, not at all liking that. Under the table he puts a paw on Cyko's leg to still the hog from getting into more trouble, trying to tell him that he has this one, "How, by way of exclusion? I'm dressed like a girl, and Cyko has a vagina, but you are the only 'pussy' at this table."

	The cat chuckles softly. "Aw, how cute, she thinks she still has balls!" He laughs loudly. 

Cyko growls and squeezes Mitch's hand, probably a bit harder then he should; as if trying to transfuse all his anger into the otter. The Hedgehog really not used to having someone else standing up for him, not sure he likes it; but at the same time doubts he could deal with another punishment right now… 

	Mitchel lets go of Cyko's paw and stands up, turning to face the boy, his face no longer at all feminine as he fights to restrain his anger at that, "You wanna know the best part about not having nuts?"

	The cat grins softly, "Go ahead, I wear a cup. You think you’re the first little bitch to try and use them against me?" He replies with a soft laugh.

	Mitchel shakes his head and leans in, whispering into the cat's ear, "Ever since I lost them, I've found girls over-eager to have sex with me. I don't need to troll tables full of guys in hopes of a lay." His voice dripping with venom as he speaks.

	And before Mitchel knows it, he now has two matching eyes as the cat slugs him in the face. "I don't need sympathy fucks form broads that feel sorry for me!” He replies with a hiss.  “I find it much more enjoyable to TAKE what I want anyway." He grins widely as he walks closer to the downed otter.

	Mitchel groans and then puts a hand on the table and uses it to steady himself as he struggles to stands back up. "Fuck, he doesn't punch half as well as you do, Cyko..." He looks up at the cat with a grin and continues, "You sure you wanna be bragging about that here?" He tries to shift a bit so that he is facing the cat, but can see Rhapsody, trying to gauge her reaction; He notices she is watching this intently; though not reacting just yet. Her face isn’t easy for anyone to read with its black features, but she seems focused on the cat with extremely antiquated viewpoints, like a hawk watching its prey before swooping down. 

	This was likely the type of person Mitch’s mom, or Miss Nightfang, feared he might turn out as, as one of her original concerns was the boy becoming like his dad. The cat seems to see women as objects so it’s a pretty good assumption why he's here. Mitch continues egging the cat on, "Taking sex instead of having it sounds a lot like rape. You’re saying that you can only get a girl if you pounce on her and violate her? That's not being a man, that's being a cowardly prick."

	"Being a man is about dominance, about showing bitches where their place is. Not this coddling them and making them think they are as good as everyone else. Just a whole bunch of bullshit to get into a girl’s pants because they think they are equal. But they aren’t, the only reason we keep them around is for breeding and taking care of the kids. We just pretend to honor their wants so they don’t get pissy; not that it ever works; they still just want more and more. Best just keep them in their place and keep their mouths shut." He replies as he looks down at Mitch and kicks him in the gut as he tried to get up. 

Mitchel feels the breath go out of him as he is kicked in the guts, only barely managing to not lose his lunch, and feeling his ribs ache. He steadies himself and starts to lift off the floor again, refusing to stay down for an asshole like this, "Yah? Sounds like something someone with ED would say... You got a limp noodle?"

	Cyko is about to jump the guy, having more than enough but is saved from having to do that when Rhapsody appears beside him. Now Mitch knows she couldn't have gotten from her seat to Cyko's in the moment the cat kicked him. 

	"Calm down. This will not go on much longer." She replies, her hand on his shoulder as she is not about to let Cyko get in more trouble; knowing that the hedgehog would seriously fuck the cat up if he got into it. No, that would be her job if this persisted much longer; but right now she remains focused on the cat, still just watching for now; but Mitch can read her face better. She's not happy, in fact she is seething with anger and is just barely holding back; but she isn't interfering yet as she doesn’t want Mitchel to feel like a damsel to be saved.

	The Cat kicks Mitchel again as he tries to get up again. "Maybe you need to see for yourself. I'm sure you'll enjoy getting fucked like the nutless bitch you are! Get you prepared for what your life is going to be like from now on."

	Mitchel loses his meal at that second kick, driving the bile up his throat as he coughs it out and wipes his muzzle on his arm. He starts to stand up again, but this time taking care to be ready for another kick.

	No kick comes, in fact the cat reaches down and grabs Mitch by the scruff and ‘helps’ the otter to his feet with a jerk, while his other reaches to rip your skirt off showing off your lack of balls to everyone in the cafertia. “Don’t worry, you’ll enjoy it, even as you cry and pretend you aren’t.” He says with a sneer as he starts to undo his jeans. It’s at this that the room seems to go pitch black, no real light at all, except Mitch can somehow see like an 'aura' around those close to him as he is suddenly finds he is free of the boy's clutches. 

	"Malik!" Rhapsody yells, the name sounding almost like malice, fitting such a rude and hate-filled boy, as her purple eyes have turned a blood red. "Your actions will not stand." The room grows colder as the bat girl seems to hover above the table looking down on him. "You are among the worst scum this school has had to take in. And I will not tolerate it!" Her voice is no longer the soft sweet quirky tone Mitch was used to, it’s full on anger and hatred, devoid of any warmth or compassion. Frankly, she's downright scary as she stares the boy down.

	Mitchel pants for breath, feeling... very sore from the beating he took. He blinks tears out of his eyes from the pain as his eyes try to adjust to the darkness, listening and watching. Not really able to do much else. Though he soon finds Cyko at his side, feeling the hedgehog close trying to help him relax and feel better as he recovers.

Malik, the cat, seems to have lost his voice in the face of the rather demonic looking bat. She hovers closer to the scared boy, a dark aura surrounding her body. Malik’s eyes go wide as he tries to back away; Rhapsody’s aura feeling like death incarnate to him. 

	It is here that Mitch and Cyko can really see the differences between mother and daughter. When Miss Nightfang fought the Draconian in the cafe the other day, she revealed herself to be an extremely skilled and agile fighter, letting the Draconian beat himself up as she wore him down with quick and precise blows and drawing barely any blood. It was almost like the kinda fight in a Jackie Chan movie. Rhapsody however isn't trained in combat, and if anything that makes her more deadly than her mother. She rips away the boys clothes in front of the pair, it doesn’t seem like she even touches him. Her aura seeming to do most the work as it forms spectral clawed hands around her own winged ones. She doesn’t bother to be gentle as the claws just shred both the clothes and the skin underneath. She licks the fresh blood off of her hands as she glares at Malik. "If you are lucky, you will die tonight. If you aren't you will wish you had. Just like the other that messed with my friends." She says in her hollow hate-filled voice.

	With Cyko’s help, Mitchel stands the rest of the way up. He reaches forward to put his paw on the bat's shoulder, wanting to calm her like she did for the hedgehog, "I'm okay, don't hurt him, he won't learn from pain..."

	Rhapsody doesn't bother to look at Mitch as she replies. “He won't learn for lenience either. I've seen his type before. Mother will punish him in her 'ironic' ways; will figuratively make his life hell. But He won't learn.” She says sharply. “The other ones didn't. These types, they don't care about anything but themselves. And to hurt them, you need to take away their weapons." Her voice becoming eerily calm as she speaks to her friend and then reaches forward; she snatches Malik’s scrotum in her hand and simply RIPS the boy's balls off.  Malik finally breaks his silence as he screams in a pitch almost reversed for dog whistles. She grins sadistically as she holds the torn pouch up to her mouth, and empties the contents into her awaiting maw before eating them in front of everyone. Unintentionally showing Mitch the difference between how she eats and an otter eating clams.

	Mitchel still doesn't see much of a difference between the two. Raw meat is raw meat. It is the violent ripping of the boy's genitals off that really makes him shudder. Both He and Cyko wince and drop their paws to their groin a bit, Mitch’s falling from the bat’s shoulder, letting her finish.

	It’s not one of Rhapsody’s usual meals, though is one of her favorites, but for most it’s the pinkish goo that comes from blood and seed mixing that oozes down over her black lips and the sickening pop sound they make when they crush in her mouth before she swallows that can squick them. She licks her lips with a tongue that looks to be at least a foot long. 

	Malik tries to back off as he holds his bleeding groin; though she's not finished by a long shot, she reaches down to the boy's bleeding crotch. “You’re going nowhere, while you still have this intact.” She hisses and slashes open his sheath, revealing the small barbed feline prick inside.  Her hand grips Malik’s shaft in her hand. There is a another sickening snap as the boy howls out again in pain as she snaps his baculum like a twig and then again a bit lower down to ensure he'll never get another erection. Afterwards she just rips the sheath halves off; so the broken cock will hang limply between his legs and not hide. She doesn't seem done yet as shadows seem to bind him spread eagle to the floor... 

	Mitchel takes a step back and just watches silently, as things have gone far beyond his ability to control... which, to be honest, it hit that point about the same time that he got out of the cab in front of this place. 

	Cyko swallows a bit; even he in all his extremeness when it comes to beating a person up feels like this might be going too far…

	Rhapsody shifts to her male self, and looks down to the boy, blood and semen still dripping from her mouth as she gets down, and proceeds to do to him what he was planning to do to Mitchel... Unlike when she was helping Mitch with his issues there is no friendly chatter, there is no lube spell, there is just that large cock thrusting into a tight ass. His voice takes on a dark and rather sinister tone. "You like this don't you bitch? Don't deny it; it’s what you do to all the girls and boys before today. Leave them hurt, crying, scared of their body and its natural functions, Scared to face the world. You rip all innocence and happiness from them just so you can get pleasure!” He growls beastly as he fucks the feline’s ass hard and powerfully, taking no pleasure from it himself as he gives the cat a taste of what he’s given others.  “Now you will know how it feels, and it will be the last time you feel anything EVER again!" He says as he continues to rape the boy in front of everyone. He chants a spell, a very different one though the words are just as obscure, just before he cries out and cums, Malik sobs and screams more, his voice starting to get soar and pleading for help as he feels like his insides are on fire. 

	Rhapsody pulls out of him and glares down. "Never. Again." He states with a growl. In dark flash the room returns to normal, Rhapsody is her girl self again, her eyes back to purple, the aura reverting as well as all her anger and hatred disappears. Malik however remains their, broken and bleeding out on the floor from both his crotch and ass.

	Mitchel looks to Rhapsody briefly, then sighs and reaches for the cat, looking to Cyko and saying, "Help me get him to the nurse." trying to hoist him off the ground.

	Cyko seems to be in stunned silence like the rest of the cafeteria. It seems like there may be more to why people avoid the bat girl then just her being creepy or the daughter of the Headmistress, as it sounded like this wasn't the first time she went off the deep end towards someone. Cyko eventually finds strength in his legs helps Mitchel carry Malik to Nurse O'Callaghan. 

	Rhapsody looks to them "You shouldn't bother; he's not worth your time." She states firmly before exiting the cafeteria to get her mind off of what she's just done.

----------

	Ignoring Rhapsody’s comment the pair drags Malik to the Nurse, as Mitchel needed to see the nurse anyway, suspecting that he has a broken rib or two. He drops the cat onto the nurse's table with Cyko's help, then sits down and says, "I don't think I'm going to be up for helping you with your punishment tonight after all Cyko..." managing a half smirk trying to lighten the mood a bit what just happened.

	Cyko looked at Mitch and noded. "Yea, well I think I kinda lost all desire for sex anyway..." He says as he sits down next to the otter.

	The large cowtaur blinks and sighs as she watches the pair enter. "Can't ya stay outta trouble for one day lass?" She asks to Mitchel, before turning to the medical table to look over Malik first, it’s a very quick examination for the cat as the Nurse then calls Miss Nightfang over the intercom. "Ach, it’s happened again Miss Nightfang..." 

	Mitchel nods slowly, sighing as he eases back a bit in the chair, and wincing at the pain in his side.  He looks to Cyko "You know that guy who was turned into a slobbering cock hound that you told me about? I think that might have been Rhapsody's doing instead of Ms. Nightfang's..." said softly so the nurse can't overhear it, as he watches her get to work on patching the cat up so he doesn't bleed out.

	Cyko nods softly in agreement. "Yea. Kinda obvious after tha..." He replies in a whisper. 

	Miss Nightfang arrives rather quickly at the Nurses office. She blinks and shudders at the sight of Malik. "Oh Nyx..." She mutters to herself and shakes her head and then notices Cyko and Mitch. "She didn't do anything to you did she?" 

	Mitchel blinks, "What? No... If you are talking about Rhapsody, no. The cat decided to go from beating me up to putting it in me, and she stopped him."

	Miss Nightfang nods softly, she didn’t think Rhapsody would have, but sometimes her daughter seems like a different person when she gets angry. "So she pre-emptively stopped it this time." She says more to herself and nods. "Jessie, do your best to keep him alive." She says and looks back to Mitch and Cyko. "My first thought is to send you both on your way; as you really shouldn't stay here for this. But I supposed I need to hear what exactly happened first." For the first time not sounding confident in herself and being worried about things.

	Mitchel nods and takes a deep breath, "I got Cyko out of his room, and we went and apologized to Sam, hung out with her a bit then went to dinner. As usual, it was just me and Cyko at our table. Then he came over and started insulting us and asking if we needed a real man. I started goading him on about being anything but, when he said that real men rape lesser men and all women, and went on with some bullshit about women being sub-sentient, and I said that I've only ever heard talk from people like that had limp noodles. So he polished my other eye, maybe cracked a rib or two, and then tore off my skirt, saying he was going to rape me. Then Rhapsody was just there. I tried to stop her, saying that you should deal with it, but she was pretty determined."

	Miss Nightfang nods softly as she listens "She remembers what happened to Harmony..." She muses to herself. She doesn't seem to react to Mitch’s admission of goading Malik, maybe she doesn't catch it in her mood or due to other thoughts. She turns to look to the cow. "I hate these government jobs." 

	Mitchel sighs a little and fidgets, "It's all my fault, even after he started punching me, I wouldn't let him just win. I kept turning his words against him."

	Miss Nightfang looks to Mitchel, "You can't know that for sure. Not with this one. Michelle. Malik Cynders is a bad seed, much like Joesph Renard was. Malik's whole family has had issues ever since their father died it seems. He looks down on women, and those that look like women, because of his mother from what I can tell. He was caught in the act of trying to rape a schoolmate of his and then sent here for help to deal with his issues..."

	Mitchel shrugs and then sighs, "Well... can I go then?"

	Miss Nightfang hmms softly, her mood picking up a bit. "Or were you LOOKING to be punished Michelle?" She asks as she looks back to the otter as he sounds disappointed to her.

	Mitchel shakes his head, "No, just feeling a little sorry for him." He stands up and looks to Cyko, then back to Miss Nightfang.

	Miss Nightfang giggles softly "Feeling sorry for someone that would have raped you in front of everyone? Very admirable. You got him here quickly, I'm pretty sure he'll live, though his quality of life will decrease drastically. 

	Cyko looks to Mitch "Uh, Dun ya still need to have yer injuries look at?"

	Mitchel shrugs, "I'll live. Nothing you can do for ribs anyway, I can swing by later for pain pills or something..." then he looks to Miss Nightfang and the nurse, "Right?"

	Miss Nightfang smiles and leans down to kiss the otter, the feeling of a cool breeze rushes over his body. Much like when she snipped him, the bat working a healing spell to restore Mitch to top condition. "I think you deserve that for being a little hero and saving the life of your would-be rapist."

	Mitchel shivers at the effects of the kiss, blinking a few times before smiling, "Or you could do that. Thanks." then he grabs Cyko's paw to drag the other boy out of the office and leave Miss Nightfang and the nurse to their jobs.

Cyko meeps as Mitchel drags him out of the Nurse's office, making Miss Nightfang giggle softly before she turns and gets to work on what to do about Malik.

----------

	Mitchel leads Cyko back to the hedgehog's room, then says, "I have to go do something, I'll check in on you later tonight, okay?"

	Cyko nods softly "Yea... Alright..." Sounding a bit disappointed then adds "Yer not gonna hunt down bat girl are ya?"

	Mitchel splays his ears, "I gotta check that she's okay."

	"She kin clearly take care of 'erself..." He replies, obviously worried she might do something to Mitchel.

	Mitchel says, "Physically, yah, but dude, but I gotta make sure she is okay emotionally. I'll be back, I'm pretty sure she won't hurt me."

	Cyko nods and gives his lover and friend a hug. "Yea, well... Iffen she turns ya inside out I'll just say I told ya so." He says with a playful grin.

	Mitchel nods and smirks, "Sure thing." then he sets off, trying to find Rhapsody; which is easier said than done, considering he doesn't know where her room is.
