The Life Of Normal-Taro

As Thankappan ordered, Taro ended up explaining everything that happened before he came. Initially, when he informed Thankappan about this, he did not explain it clearly other than asking him to bring the neuralyzer. However, since it was Taro, the walking disaster who asked for it, the MIB agent was sure that something huge happened and he wasn't kidding about it.

"So, that was stupid!" Thankappan exclaimed as he heard Taro's explanation.

"Huh, why'd you say that?" Taro inquired.

"Well, first off, why the hell did you make her stand there to watch your fight? Wasn't that idiotic? You could've done the valiant hero shtick, gave her time to run away and then quickly dispose of them in the time span that she brings someone for help. Simple as that!" Thankappan shook his head in disappointment.

"I could have done that, huh? I just didn't think of it at that moment. My bad!" Taro spoke.

"Well, even with the situation you brought yourself, you could've salvaged it without having to use the neuralyzer on Abhirami." Thankappan replied.

"Hmm? How?" Taro asked.

"Well, you could've acted like you were getting beaten up by them. It's not like you'll get hurt by it, right?" Thankappan asked back.

"Well, I won't get hurt by whatever the earthlings have to pull out." Taro replied.

"As I said, get beat by them, get the sympathy from both parties… They'll feel bad for you and leave you. Problem solved." Thankappan spoke.

"Sounds easy. But it would be difficult in practice." Taro replied.

"Well, it's because your dumb ass did crazy shit like this!" Thankappan sighed.

"I apologize." The Wadorian bowed his head.

"Anyhow, with this, we have to be vigilant around Abhirami now. We can't afford to have her memory jogged. She's not John. If we flashed her twice, her memories are done for." Thankappan replied.

"You're right. I'll be careful around her." Taro nodded his head.

"But don't be too careful and make her doubt your actions. Act normally, okay?" Thankappan spoke.

"Sure." Taro nodded again.

"Let's go back to Holy Land then." Thankappan spoke as he walked towards the Holy Land with Taro following suit.

"So, what happened?" Gibli asked.

"The guy beat down a hundred people and now MIB lads are busy cleaning his mess up." Thankappan was the one who replied to it.

Taro simply nodded his head, acknowledging that Thankappan's words were indeed the truth.

"Why would you do that though?" Gibli asked again.

"Well, they were the ones who picked a fight with me. I merely showed them they picked the fight with the wrong freaking person." Taro replied.

"They stalked Abhirami, so he beat them up. That's the actual gist of it." Thankappan interfered and spoke.

"Ha… Here I was, thinking of sounding all cool!" Taro looked dejected.

"Hmm… Abhirami, huh? You better stop mingling with her. Or else, you might end up like M'Baku." Gibli spoke.

"Well, it's not like I can't leave a student who asked for a favor alone, right? I did what I think is right and I'm not gonna stop doing that." Taro sounded unwavering as he said that.

"Is that so? Very well. It was merely a suggestion. So, yea." Gibli shrugged.

"Yea…" Taro nodded his head, before looking around. "By the way, where is John?" He asked.

"Well, he's with Lonappan, so currently he might be in—oh, no!" The shock was clear in Thankappan's face.

"What?" Everyone looked anxiously towards him.

"They'll be in the clean up duty now." Thankappan answered.

"What's the problem with—oh, no!" It took little for them to understand the gravity of the situation.

If Lonappan and John are there, it wouldn't take them much to guess who caused the ruckus. And that might in turn jog John's memories, which isn't good for anyone.

While they were worried about this, they heard a knock on the door. Since most were so anxious to even open it, Thankappan volunteered to do so. 

"Hello… John and Lonappan!" Thankappan's voice went on a ride as he shrieked.

"Sheesh, calm down will ya! That's annoying." Lonappan spoke.

"I'm sorry." Thankappan apologized almost immediately.

"It's fine. Why aren't you going in, John?" He asked.

"Ah, yea. Is there anyone in the bath?" John asked Thankappan.

"No."

"Great. I'm taking a bath then." John said as he headed towards the bathroom.

Once he was gone, Lonappan walked in and stared hard at Taro. "So, you got anything to say?" He asked.

"Hmm?"

"Don't act dumb with me. I know what happened. I just want to hear from your damn mouth as well." Lonappan spoke sternly.

Taro sighed before describing the incident in detail. "... So yea, that happened." He concluded.

"You know, even if you are not in the calamity level threat list in reality, I'm gonna make a strong case to add you in. You are an actual menace at times than the actual threats!" Lonappan sighed this time around. He couldn't just believe what he just heard.

"Well, I apologize. It was not my intention. They just randomly attacked out of nowhere and I panicked and used self defense." Taro replied.

"Freaking liar! If that was the case, you would've stopped after the first few." Lonappan replied.

"I planned on doing so. However, once I tried stopping, I realized I couldn't. The blood lust was too much for me to handle. Sorry." Taro replied.

"Well, then. Why didn't you land a hit on the girl then? You couldn't control it, right? You should've beaten her up as well then, if I'm following your words clearly." Lonappan spoke.

"You see… Her face was the one thing that saved me! When I saw it, my uncontrollable blood lust suddenly lowered out of nowhere. If it was not for her, I would've wreaked havoc in this place." Taro spoke.

"So, you're saying that you missed the girl entirely when you were fighting with her in that crowd and yet you noticed her once you decimated those people." Lonappan summarized it.

"I knew you would understand." Taro smiled.

"Bullshit. Next time around, pull out a better lie from your ass or you'll be put in a house arrest. Understand?" He asked.

"Yup." Taro had no choice but to nod along to the intimidating voice at that point.
