Iris’s Troubling Past
“How does she have the power to turn into a Draginucous? She is only 5 years old?” A teacher asked as Iris ran around her small black Draginucous form in the classroom.
“I don’t know how but we need her to calm down.” Another teacher said as she got a hold of Iris by her neck.
She pinned her to the ground and put a muzzle on her. She threw her into a cage and left her there for hours. She cried as she tried to take the muzzle off of her head. Then, she heard another kid scream and run past her cage. He stopped and walked back to the front of the cage to see who or what was in there. He saw Iris in there and she backed away into a corner as he opened the door. He was grabbed and thrown into a chair and was calmed down with a talk. That went on until she was about 10 years old, in 3rd grade. She would always go home crying and her mother would comfort her.
“Repeat after me, my dear Daru Daru. You are gifted and you can do anything you want in your life.” Her mother soothed as she hugged Iris.
“I’m not gifted and I can’t do anything I want in my life.” Iris said as she sobbed into her mother’s shoulder.
“No, no. You CAN do anything you want in your life and you ARE gifted.” Her mother soothed the ball of sobs.
A few years later, it continued with a kid named Mac and his little group of bullies. They loved to bully Iris until it made her cry or they had enough. It was very rare that they had enough of bullying Iris.
“Enough!! I... I am done!! Please, stop this... this bullying!! I... I submit!!” Iris growled and cried as elves and other creatures kicked and punched her on the playground until recess was over.
When everyone left to go inside, she always picked herself up from that. She was alone until after her 3rd grade, second semester. Avalar came in and protected her until the last week of school when he was killed by Mac, the Elf Bully Leader. She had enough and stood up for herself from then on.
“Mother was right. I AM gifted and I CAN do anything I want in my life.” Iris said as she smiled down at Mac, who was under her foot.
The other bullies backed away from her and she gained a lot of fans at school. From there, she stayed more and more confident even though Lolo disappeared her 4th grade year.
Is this her full history or is it just a part of the reason she is the way she is?
