A Bender In Neverland

Armory

"He's bullying us all." thoma and lannion said as they grovel at the ground in defeat with gilda comforting them as she said "That man doesn't want to learn our names and is stubborn about it."

"Come on guys it's just a nickname he gave us what's so wrong with that?" I asked

"That's easy for you to say. You're so much cooler than ours." thoma said

"I don't know? Water girl is kinda stupid to be honest." I said with a smug look on my face

"At least it's not pizza topping(thoma), curry chow(lannion), bean(don), prissy four eyes(gilda), antenna(emma), sleepy cyclops(ray), old man(norman), or nose(nat)." thoma stated

As I heard ray said "Why are you looking so proud, nat?"

"Because someone has finally recognized my elegant nose." nat said as he stuck his nose up in the air

I just went back on doing what I was doing earlier playing anime openings with my guitar

Yesterday was the day we finally got yuugo to agree to be our guide and bodyguard. So today the majority of us are in the library since he doesn't like us roaming around

I tuned out their conversation as I continued to play Literature by reina ueda

"Hey harley?" I heard norman called out

"Yeah, honey?" I asked making everyone stop to look at me and comprehend what I just said

"... Honey???" ray and emma shouted while the others just whispered it in confusion

"Ha-Harley? Why are you calling norman, honey?" emma asked while ray was glaring daggers at the poor blushing boy

"Why can't I call him that, sugar plum?" I asked emma with a smile

Emma.exe has stopped working

"Emma!" gilda quickly ran up to help the unconscious girl

"What are you playing, harley?" ray asked as he looked at me with caution in his eyes

"You, cookie." I winked at him making him blush and look away from me

I woke up on the side of the bed wanting to cause mischief but before I could continue my spree, mama clapped her hands and said "Alright, that's enough harley. Stop playing with their hearts."

I huffed and continued to play my guitar, as the three got their shit together

Norman coughed grabbing my attention then said "Harley... Do we really need that man? I mean we have you as our guide and from what I can tell you're just taking this whole situation too lightly?"

"I mean... You have me and the power of friendship thanks to emma. So yes and no but it's nice to keep him around." I said with a smile

Norman just nodded his head then said "Then we should plan for what we need-"

"Woah Woah Woah. What do you mean we? You ain't coming with us. Too many variables that can go wrong." I said shockingly to everyone

"Why?!" norman exclaimed, his eyes wide open

"I can get emma and ray coming with me but can you keep up? Were going to be running non-stop once we stepped out of the shelter. I'll mostly be out there killing any wild demons to protect you guys but that doesn't mean I have to wait for you. I'm also following the man since I don't know where to go." I said

"I can keep up with them. It's only a couple of days and we'll be taking rest during our journey." norman reasoned

"Norman... When I mean running non-stop, I mean it. Were going through dangerous territory being chased down by wild and huge demons out to eat us all. If you think that man will stop to save you while I'm busy taking care of some of them then you're surely mistaken. He plans to kill one of us during the journey just so he can give us a taste of reality. Even when we managed to stay alive after all of that, when we arrived at the place, we were going to be hunted down by demon nobility." I explained not caring to let out some future information

"Norman, I care about you. I care for all of you. So please understand that I have your safety as my top priority. I know you're smart, it's just that you physically can't run for days straight without taking a rest or getting sick." I reasoned with him

"But with my help, our fighting power would be even greater." norman said

"Yeah, that's why I'm planning on bringing, mama with us." I said

"What?!" everyone shouted in shock including mama

I then started to explain why I want mama to come with us, which wasn't hard since everyone quickly realized why I want her to come with us

They quickly agreed and we went back to what we were doing

-Timeskip-

Emma called us over since yuujo called us for something. So we followed her to see yuujo doing something to the piano. Then a secret passage opened up behind the piano. We went inside and saw it was an armory

"Pick your weapon and get used to it. We'll leave on 2 days." yuugo said as he left us to do just that

We looked around the armory and in the end mama and ray got a rifle, emma got a hand gun that doesn't kill but stuns the enemy while I found something even more valuable

Southern water tribe clothes, spirit water and a katana with a book... But not just any katana with a book, it was giyuu's katana with a "how to learn water breathing for dummies by sakonji urokodaki"

This will help me lots, I quickly changed clothes and hid the book before I met up with the others

"Harley, what are you wearing?" emma asked to which I replied "Southern water tribe clothes!"

As night fell, I went out of the shelter and pulled out the book, as I opened the book and read the first page

A bright light came out of nowhere, blinding me. When I got my sight back, I saw that the book was gone and a horrible head ache came

After a minute or two of just basically my head splitting into two. It all went away. I got up from the sand and was about to see if I did some generic quick learning bullshit. Only for norman to come out of the shelter

"Harley, what are you doing?" he asked as he walked towards me

"Just practicing. What are you doing out here?" I asked

"I just wanted some fresh air." he said as he took a seat on the sand

I just stood there and looked at him

He quickly let out an akward laugh and then said "Why are you looking at me, harley?"

"You want to say something to me. Don't you? Well? Speak peasant!" I said

"Why don't you want me to come with you?" he asked

"We both know that you already know the answer to that question, norman." I said making him go silent

'He looks like a kicked puppy.' I thought to myself as I looked at him being sad and shit

"Ugh! Fine! You can come with us but only if you show some improvement to your body." I said

He quickly lit up and said "I knew that was gonna work on you. I'll do just that and show you that I won't be a burden." as he was heading back inside leaving me flabbergasted

"You son of a bitch."
