techsupportdog because he has a gun collection, late because he's been trained to use those guns, and pervy because he has military experience and he's mature so I can probably count on him to help me make decisions.

In a land far far away at a time where technology has not advance so much. A time in which the only way to contract one of other was to ride the mechanical beast of burden known as a "bike"  and the battle ground known as the playground is where like kins gather and participate in battle of friends and might.  Such is where our story will begin with 2 human and one 1 tentacle being (I). The three of us were misfits.  One commonly has a tantrum and would throw a fit over the smallest things such as one crayon is smaller then other or if a kid were making fun of his accent or feign to not be able to comprehend, let this boy be known as Kurt.  One whom has a minor handicap born with only one arm such cruelty has the Fate inflicted upon her childhood, not many would talk to her let alone invite her to birthday party the adult took pity on her, her name known shalt be for the remainder as, Indra .  And last but not least, the tentacle being known as Supreme_Lurker_Primo, whom would played by itself on the opposite side of the battleground it paid no attentions to the to squabbles for dominance.on the playground.  For so long it has it books it was satisfy, birthday invitations were given, but only as a formality from the children's parents. So I would politely decline, however even one of such being whom seek to the embodiment of loneliness and the path of hermit, being excited with not one to share is lonesome. Also due to a tongue barrier it was difficult for me to forge any bonds, I simply do my work, shake and nod my head when ask for anything.

 

Kurt

One lovely afternoon with the crispy autumn breeze blowing gently across the battleground the horn has been blown signalling the bloody cunning beast known as the 5th graders. Ahhh, this is  the only time in which the 3rd and 5th grader mingles. Due to the lack of resources this often lead to unfair treatment and violent skirmishes for the swings and tire swings or the usages of the kickball field.  My domain is safe from such conflict for I occupy the old ruined battleground, with broken swings set, jungle gym in wreckage, slides that would crumple if one even attempt to slide down. This domain while old and in ruined it was my and was schedule for renovation and demolish.  I would often dine here, read here, hide treats such as cookies, candies, and water/juice in a small box in the trunk hole of an old tree. small enough so that only I can make used of it due to my petite size along with more books I smuggle from the Academy's library along with miscellaneous objects like shiny rocks or lost clothes ware that the sweet autumn wind with bring(No one claim it nor did anyone actively ask for the clothes wears, so I claim such articles for my own. Though it is unfortunate with insects or other critter with seek my treats). 

 

I heard a ruckus near the edge of my domain it appear to be a fight, between Kurt and a pack of 5th grader boys screaming and yelling. Such is normal, this place was far from the nicer side and away from the Academy instructors' gaze, and even if one of them appear it would matter not for the Academy Instructors would turn a blind-eye, for such fights are often messy business and is not worth their while. Such was the Unspoken Rule, no ratting out each other (I do wonder why? it matter not to me I cause no trouble thus I except no trouble). While Kurt was bigger then the average 5th grader, he was slow and the pack of 5th grader would take turn punching, kicking, pushing, and pulling from the blind spots.  Kurt would yelled and swing it gorilla like fist, but missed or try to run, but the beast formed a tight circle. At the end, once the pack of beast lost their interests they would laugh and walk away leaving Kurt in a corpse like stake, many are careful to not inflict noticeable wounds, however this is not one of those time,  Kurt lied blooded from the nose and black and bruises. I stay my distance, he let out a huge bellow of rage kicking the already broking swing blood with ooze from the wounds mostly his nose. Whether the action I about to do was out of pity or simply wanting him off my domain I scurried across the playground and search my boxes with a small white cloth I leap and run to the injured Kurt and toss the white cloth at him, he stared at me with his sky blue eyes now smudge with dirt and the look of anger and rage. I used my uniform showing him I wish he would used the cloth to wipe away the blood and damp the cloth with his saliva to wash the dried crusted blood. I scurried off after the deed was done.

One Halloween, our Academy once a year would let the student wear, instead of their uniforms be allow to wear whatever costume so long it follow the rules it was fine.  Such celebration do not interest me...however the idea of free candies was to sweet to turn down meaning I can replenish my treasure trove. I did not wish to wear princess costume or wear boys cowboy, power ranger costume (why cant the red ranger be a girl? honestly!) So I settle with this obscure fairy costume that I help cut the fabrics, a leather breech, with leather like vest and inner soft shirt, that kept me warm from the late autumn chill. I wore glister around the cheek, and a small intertwining necklace all done by a master crafts master(my mother) completed with a match fingerless gloves set. However, my costume was a pale comparison to Indra for her costume and prop item would leave parents and Instructors alike breathless, her item was much of the children's source of envy. Particularly with the fellow girls. So they set their foul deeds in motion.  They would watch from afar like vultures circling from above.  When Indra left her's specter to get food, one of the witches flew down gently like a owl and swipe the specter away and disappear into play ground once again in my domain.  The other follow her suit and pretend to queens  laughing and jeering, revealing their disgusting nature. They took turn however like gear in Fate is stuck, they would accuse each of taking to long and wanted to be their turn so a tug-of-war  as one can except, the specter was torn apart and dropped shattering. They cried and distorted faces of anger and placing blame, they took the fragment and tossed into the woods...my woods. They ran back and and pretend such event did not occur. 

 

There suddenly a loud shriek as if a dragon was born, I walked back, salty tears flowed down Indra's porcelain doll like face her face was twisted, by anger and fear pleading the Academy instructors to help look for her specter. So under the Academy Instructor's order we were to search, the witches look at each other and still continue to feign ignorance.  the class looks, but could not be found. Once the horn has be blown signalling Academy is over they quickly left to be either pick up or walk home.  Indra, stay behind, I lived not far so I stayed and wanted to finish reading a book while there is still daylight. I from time to time would hear a banshee's wail I left my tranquility and lookked to see the banshee was none other then Indra, crawl up in a fetal position, soaking her royal pristine ivory gown in her tears. I took her by the hand and lead away, maybe I really did look like a tiny fair spiriting her away I point to the ground signalling her to stay. so does so obediently, I scurried up and pick up the pieces that could be salvage and put the pieces in my makeshift leather shirt pouch, (in hindsight it probably never a good idea to pick up broken glass lol) I brought it over she was was terrify, but happy she took my sleeves and lead me to her palace, her servant quickly tended her and stared at me since I was cover in dirt.  Indra bade to come in, but I refuse. I left the palace after I pulled Indra to a patch of dirty by the street light drawing female stick figurer that looks more like a cavepeople drawing of the specter fate. I helped her and we when trick-or-treating for the rest of evening, she smiled, a much more fitting expression. 

 

Together

After the snow melted and the birds, the harbinger of spring, chirped tweeted the return of new life and old returns. Me I can finally return to my domain, and the fight for power across the battlefield, resume once again.  I like I had done for many ages, read my book on top of the old metal dome (looks like this)

Spoiler

Kurt one day appears in my kingdom, he returned the white cloth no longer bloody, he thank me and I returned a small bow. he would liter around remove the loose branches cleaning up my domain, I could not complain, for I am to weak.  Indra since the incident comes running to me and with speak. to me in a familiar tone, I would smile, nod, or patted her head since, the act of body contract frightens me and in my family such is not a common practice. Kurt would be there, I would hop down from my throne and introduce them, surprised them I do speak passable English (all those reading and talking to myself when I am alone pay off) We forge an unbroken camaraderie. Kurt and Indra were afraid at first due to his reputation and big outward appearance. However she to learn he is just misunderstood and English is not first language. Is actually a good person minus the tantrums, but heeds my every words. We play DnD at Indra place her father being the DM (I play the wizard, because it was fitting that I read alot. Indra was a rogue and Kurt was our tank barbarian) we would recreate certain scenes in my domain safe from the scrutiny of the 5th grader beasts, classmates, and Academy Instructor such were joyous days me finally having someone to share my treasure trove with.  Like all good things such happy days comes to an end, my domain was demolish and renovated like plan, but my treasure tree was remove to it expansion at the end of my 5th year.

 

Epilogue

 

Spoiler

We all grew up and mature and when our separate way, but still kept in close contract, sadden that I no longer speak, but it was not like I spoke much anyway.  I believe I grew to be the mage, I am a academy scholar teaching my craft to my fellow apprentice.  Kurt grew up and work in the law enforcing line of work after deciding to join the army, prior to that attending the School of Criminal Justice, he grew even more massive from before, still carries the white clothe in his wallet to remind him of our bond.  Haha indeed he grew like his Barbarian character. Indra excel both crafts even with her one arm she was much a match for her opponent practicing many marital art disciplines and doing well in academic she seeks to work in her country agency like a true rogue. Indra and Kurt had elope and fallen in love with each and produce an offspring,  No longer do they live near me ,but the only habitable place that is both an island and a continent ( can you guess this one? ) I am honored of being the offspring's Supreme God parent.  It being me much joy, for the offspring inherit the mother's porcelain feature and the father beautiful icy blue eyes. While the story of The Mage, The Rogue, and The Barbarian is over, the offspring's story has just begun, but at last that would be for another time.
