"Zeru...lunch."
A small black nose poked out of the collar of Lonán's uniform before the entire head was revealed.
The hedgehog twitched his nose before taking the small offering of rice into his mouth.
Lonán watched the other eat for a bit before picking an egg roll up, chewing it thoughtfully as he stared at the sky.
Slam!
Silver eyes slowly blinked before turning to the rooftop door.
A bunch of cocky teens--five of them--came strolling out as Zeru hid himself under Lonán's collar again.
The group immediately spotted Lonán, who returned to eating his bento.
"Eh? Isn't that the new brat here?"
"Haha! Yeah, it's the little nerd~!"
Lonán continued to eat his bento, causing tick marks to appear on their heads.
One of them, a brunet, strolled over to the boy and glared at him.
"Oi, we're talking to you!"
The teen kicked at Lonán's bento.
In the blink of an eye, the raven kept a blank face on as he moved his bento out of the way of the kick while holding his chopsticks in his other hand.
The elder boy squawked as he slipped from the force of his own kick, falling hard onto his back.
And Lonán?
He picked a octopus-shaped hotdog with his chopsticks and popped it into his mouth, continuing to sit while eating.
The bully on the floor groaned slightly as he sat up, wincing as he rubbed his back.
"That will bruise if you don't ice it."
The teen glared at Lonán, who was staring at him with indifference, chewing slowly on his hotdog.
"Brat!"
The brunet threw a punch at the side of Lonán's head.
The raven simply bent backwards slightly, and the fist only met air.
The elder growled as he stumbled to his feet, motioning for the other boys to surround Lonán.
"Brat...I'm gonna send ya to a hospital."
"'You're' going to send me to a hospital? Then there is no need for you friends when 'you're' the one declaring to beat me up."
The brunet grit his teeth as Lonán continued to gaze blankly at him.
He then motioned for his friends to start beating Lonán up; they slowly closed in on the boy.
Silver eyes narrowed dangerously for brief second as Lonán set his bento down, placing the cover on top, but he still held on to his chopsticks.
One of the teens launched a punch at the back of Lonán's head; the raven-haired boy absently twirled the chopsticks in his hand.
In a blur of black, the teen found himself staring up in the sky in surprise.
'What the...?'
The teen was sprawled on his back, confusion clear on his face.
The others simply stared dumbly at Lonán, who was standing right next to the teen's head, twirling his wooden chopsticks.
Lonán gave a bored look as he tossed his chopsticks in the air before catching them.
"A little more faster--but attacking someone behind the back is cowardly."
The other teens glared at Lonán as the boy watched the teen on the ground scramble to his feet.
This time, two of the teens lunged at Lonán--at the same time.
The boy crouched down slightly before grabbing the wrist of one of the bullies.
With strength that a little boy shouldn't possess, Lonán swung the bully into the other teen that was lunging at him; the raven let go and watched two struggle to get up.
Lonán then placed one chopstick in each hand, twirling them before tapping them together.
"Show me what you've got..."
Silver eyes were shadowed slightly by raven bangs, and it caused the elder boys to shiver.

"Hello--AH! What happened!?"
The school nurse came scrambling to the door where a certain raven was standing, dragging two teens by their ankles.
Lonán merely glanced up at her and spoke.
"They were going to beat me up, so I simply defended myself. There are three more unconscious teens on the rooftop. Two of them will be troublesome to pick up--there are chopsticks pinning them down by their uniform pants and sleeves."
The nurse blinked dumbly and watched as Lonán stepped out of the room after giving his outrageous report.
But before leaving, Lonán turned around and spoke once more.
"Those two should wake up in a few hours, since I only hit their pressure points. Their bodies will hurt for a few days, but they should be fine. Please take care of them."
And Lonán was gone.
The nurse's jaw hit the floor, and her legs buckled out of shock as she slumped to the floor.
"Eeeeeeeh!?"
