[1 v 1] Black, White & Red All Over (Danny & Belladonna)

[AyeAvast]

Maybe the Gym wasn't the best place for a still grieving witch to hang out in when she had pinned all her anger and despair solely on the shoulders of the former gym teacher. But sorrow was a funny thing that drove people to odd little habits and the one Belladonna found herself currently enacting was to stomp angrily up and down the halls of the Gym. She'd heard tell that Red was around here somewhere and while she still had a bone or five to pick with the teacher, Belladonna just didn't quite have the courage to yet actually seek her out. Not fully anyways. If the witch happened to run into the professor at the Gym, then that was another matter entirely. But the witch was also not even going close to the teacher's office and instead kept as far away from it as possible, thus not really putting her in direct path of Red.
It was a convoluted plan that really lent itself more toward failure than success, but the witch wasn't really picky. Mostly she just wanted something to do, something to occupy her time for a bit. And stomping was such good exercise!

At least until she got tired and instead just found a bench to flop on and generally glare at the floor. Honestly what she needed was to express some anger in a violent and exercise intense manner, but there really weren't any friends she wanted to ask to spar with her... Most of her ghoulfriends were such delicate creatures that asking them to fight was a bit like asking a flower to stand still while one stomped on it. And while they were kind enough to surely have offered themselves in any way to help the witch, Belladonna just couldn't bring herself to raise a hand of harm against them. Even for a friendly fight. As for the boils, the only one she would have considered an adequate punching bag was Alexander and he was...
Gone the same way her boilfriend was.
So Belladonna just folded her arms under her chest and continued to glare at the floor.

Danny scowled as she entered the gym, eager to blow off some steam with her frustrations. The gym was a daily visit for her, but for the past couple of days she'd been visiting more regularly. With news of Alexander's disappearance, she'd only grown surlier at the thought of Red romping around the school. Everyone celebrated her health while others paid the price?

So for a rare moment, Danny was feeling grumpy. She'd brought her bag and intended to stick it in a cubby so she could go beat up a punching bag, but there was a small witch ghoul sitting in front of it on the bench.

Unforunately, Belladonna hadn't caught Danny in one of her better moods. "Hey. Move." Demand, not request.  

[AyeAvast]

At first the witch did not notice the ghoul who approached, nor did she notice when she stood there for a second. Naturally it was only until she was addressed that she took notice, and even then the witch still did not move.
"Rude." Was her only reply as she sat up a little straighter in preparation to actually move. But she still took her time about it, pretending as though she had quite a lot to do before she could stand when really she just wanted a bit more time to look this ghoul over. Wings, horns and a bathing suit top? Hmph.
But finally, Belladonna only placed both her feet firmly on the ground and shoved her hands onto her hips, but remained seated. Lips pursed and eyebrows puckered as she looked up at the ghoul with a face that bespoke her now authoritative mood.

"What do little scarelings who want their way say?" Belladonna asked, nearly daring the ghoul to do something about all this. Oh yes, this was a horribly good idea.

Belladonna forgot one thing in her little list of traits. Wings, horns, a bikini top and toned, hardened muscles.

The fire demonness cracked her knuckles and said, "They say move the Jack outta the way or I'll kick your a**!" She wasn't in a joking mood, and really- all she wanted was to throw her stuff down in that cubby so she could go punch something other than this ghoulie's face. Sure if she was a better mood she might have just thrown it into another cubby, but Danny was grumpy so it HAD to be that cubby.

She frowned. Danny wasn't normally this rude, nor so surly. She was just in a bad, bad mood and all that pink clothing was grinding her coffee beans. "Now move it pinkie!"

[AyeAvast]

OK yeah Belladonna was trying not to stare at said hardened muscles, jeez.
Still, the invitation of a fight from the cracked knuckles made the witch puff up angrily as she darted up onto her feet, sure she could take such a little thing. Only, once she stood she realized how deceptively tall this ghoul was. A part of the witch wished she was not quite so hasty, wished she had just moved along and avoided this fight. Thankfully, that was a pretty small part and thus it was far easier to force into being quiet.
Instead, the witch furrowed her eyebrows at the nearly foot difference between her and the demon ghoul before she proceeded to hop up onto the bench so that the disparity between them wouldn't be quite so drastic.

"Listen here Miss Bikini Top. I am having a terrible, truly dreadful past few days. I am not the witch to mess with." An angry finger was shoved between them so that Belladonna could essentially scold the ghoul. "If you would like to help me vent those frustrations in a friendly duel, I accept. But if you're just going to be rude I'll hex you faster than you can say 'Scarves look really cute with bathing suit tops'."
...Had she meant that as a compliment? Not even the witch was really sure, so she only continued to glare at the ghoul and hope that she looked at least somewhat intimidating. This most likely wasn't the case, but it was really all she had at the moment.

"Yeah?" Danny said, "You think you're the only one with problems lately?" A frustrated scowl ripped onto Danny's face. She was annoyed with how everyone was so messed up lately, and there was only one person to blame. Red.

The same color as this twerp's bright colored hair. Danny was done asking the ghoul to move.

Luckily, the ghoul had moved into a perfect position. Danny grabbed Belladonna's collar and lifted her in her air, like she was merely another weight for the gym. "We all got problems." With that, Danny threw the ghoul to her left, and grumpily went to put her things away. Belladonna was moved, and she had her cubby space now. No need to continue to aggravate things.

i hope its okay i GM'd a little! sorry to do some much damage to poor bella Q o Q !

 

[AyeAvast]

Mildly shocked that the ghoul had not only refused to back down, but also gave a rather odd retort, the witch could only dumbly stare up at the fellow ghoul. It wasn't at all that Belladonna thought she was the only one with problems, for mostly she did quite a bang up job of helping others with their problems. Unfortunately, there was only time to get out a tiny squeak before the ghoul grabbed at the witch's shirt (thank Hecate she'd opted for a hoodie and not her usually corseted attire) and hoisted her up. Not at all used to that manner of being picked up, Belladonna grabbed at the demon's wrist, which served only as something to claw at with her nails when she was thrown. It wasn't much, especially as the witch ungracefully thumped against the ground and rolled, finally crashing against the opposite wall. Thankfully she'd managed not to scream or shriek besides a mild note of dismay once she hit the ground.
After all, this wasn't her first fight.

But it wasn't a fight the witch was after. Not now that she'd actually got a peek into this ghoul's own pain. It was very, very small, but Belladonna wasn't going to back down. At least not from the prospect of helping someone.
"Yeah, well. I bet that your boilfriend isn't, for all intents and purposes, dead thanks to one newly returned gym teacher." The witch huffed as she shakily rose to her feet. One hand rubbed against her shoulder, but besides an ache all down one side of her body, she was totally fine. Assured that she wasn't more hurt, Belladonna flashed the ghoul the smallest of smiles. Extolling her anger on the wrong person wouldn't make Belladonna feel any better, especially not when someone looked so distraught. It just wasn't in her nature.
"So what about you? What's got you so upset?"
