THE TAMIL TIGRESS PART 3 by Hamlet A deafening silence followed as Banu's majestic leather clad form entered the room. She seemed to have arrived just in the nick of time; for Sanskar .As she made her way over to where Sanskar and his antagonist Kuru the captain of the hockey team she stood, the angry Glamazon and Mean Girl , who had shed the restraints that had-for so many years tempered her behaviour towards those who had rejected her. She had learned to deal with these restraints for herself., but this was her boyfriend. Why should Sanskar be subjected to these humiliations? This was totally unacceptable, and Banu could not and would not allow it. A kind of eerie silence crept over the school common room as all the students present stared at the dramatic scene that was unfolding before them. "Take your hands off him now you arsehole!"Banu demanded," or you'll regret it for a long time to come." Though she outweighed him by nearly 150 pounds, he was a hockey player in top shape. He certainly wasn't about to back down from a girl -not in front of his friends and the cheerleaders. " And what if I don't? " Kuru responded arrogantly,"What are you going to do about it, you she elephant tub of chapatti flour? " A strange smile then appeared on Banu's pretty face as she replied," I was sort of hoping you'd say something like that." Without saying another word, she raised her 'arm and " WHACK!", slapped him hard across the face with her open hand. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! Such was the force of her blow that the hockey player spun around and fell to the floor. " Why your fat bitch, you'll pay for that." He got to his feet and threw a punch at Banu but she, showing a speed which one would never expect from a girl so large, put up her arm and 'blocked his fist in mid-air. She then grabbed him by the collar of his shirt with her leather gloved hand and, with the other, his belt buckle. Banu then lifted the stunned boy Kuru high above her head in her outstretched arms. Without showing any sign of strain, she then carried him over to the table where his friends sat and slammed him down on top of it; shattering the table and showering his friends with tea and coffee. With her hands on her hips, Banu smiled at them and said, " Sorry about that, but your friend here really needed a lesson in table manners." Twenty enraged hockey and cricket players then rose from their chairs and encircled her - twenty against one girl. Looking over at Sanskar, Banu winked and said in a calm voice that belied the situation she was in, " You stay their sweetie pie where you'll be safe...I'll handle this." Then, turning her attention back to the boys that now surrounded her, she said," My quarrel wasn't with you, just your friend there. If you'll all just return to your chairs, we can forget about this little incident; if not, well...do all you big, strong boys really want to fight little old me? " The answer was 'yes'. As fellow hockey players, they were offended by what had happened to their friend at the hands of this girl. They felt they had to avenge his humiliation. It didn't matter that he was the one who instigated it in the first place. He was one of them and the score had to be settled. And if that wasn't reason enough, all the cheerleaders were yelling," C'mon guys, kill that fat bitch! " Sometimes people are in control of events, and sometimes events are in control of people. This would definitely fall into the latter category. Completely surrounded by large, strong, muscular (and angry)'hockey players, seeking revenge for their friend's humiliation, Banu's situation might have seemed pretty hopeless. Indeed, the scene in the student union that day did have a look of surrealism about it - twenty men against one woman. But this wasn't just any woman...this was Banu, a seven foot-three-inch, 400-pound Glamazon; and what followed became legend. As the athletes closed in on her, Banu stood up on one of her toes and began to twirl around in a perfect ballet pirouette. How a 400-pound girl could spin around with such grace and perfect balance remained a mystery, but graceful she certainly was. She then did something no ballerina would ever do. she extended her arms and made fists while spinning around rapidly. WHAM! POW! SMASH! Three of the closest hockey players were literally sent flying across the room after they made contact with Banu's fists. BAM! WHACK! SLAM! three more were flattened by the female tornado. " WHEEEE, this is so much fun! " Banu laughed as she continued to twirl around knocking athletes all over the place. No matter how big or strong they were, once she connected with her fist they went down...and didn't get up again. In an amazing display of her power and strength, Mean Girl Banu (as she would be known from now on throughout the school, much to her delight') beat up eighteen of the twenty men she faced; in less than three minutes. Only two remained, and they were cowering in one of corners. Smiling, Banu approached them. She grabbed each one by the shirt and lifted them both off the floor - together, they weighed over 400 pounds! " Tell you what I'm going to do boys. If you apologize to by boyfriend for being rude to him, I'll let you off easy. If not...Bonk, Bonk." She playfully banged their heads together a couple of times as a warning to what she'd do to them if they didn't. Needless to say, they apologized. Banu then hung them both up on a coat rack. Now, there was just one more thing to take care of. She walked over to the six cheerleaders who were just standing by the shattered table in a state of shock; not believing what they had just seen." Fat bitch eh? Well, we'll see about that." Grabbing them all by their long hair, Banu tied them together in tight a knot. " There, that should keep you girls occupied for a while." Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a date with my boyfriend." When Banu returned to Sanskar, he had a very strange look on his face. He too, was in something of a state of shock. After all, he just witnessed his girlfriend beat up twenty big, strong guys...he probably couldn't even beat the weakest of them. How was it possible? It seemed beyond belief. 'Banu felt his consternation and knew she must act quickly...or she might lose him. Taking Sanskar by the hand, she led him out of the common room building to a secluded area where they could be alone. " Sanskar," she began," I know what you must be thinking. After what you just saw me do, I can't blame you if you're having second thoughts about our relationship. But you have to understand something about me. . I'm a big, strong Mean Girl and a Tigress and proud of it. But I don't want you to ever be intimidated by me I'd never hurt you Sanskar...because...I love you. You're the kindest, sweetest person I've ever met. That's why I did what I did; I couldn't let that bully hit you. And as for his friends, they were teasing you because you are my friend. Yes, I saw what was happening. I was sitting off in a corner when you entered the school common room. I saw it all. They deserved the beating I gave them; as will anyone else who teases you from now on. ' When Banu finished, Sanskar had tears in his eyes. Impulsively he hugged hissix foot-three inch, 400 pound Super Girl. "Banu, I love you too. I've loved you since I first saw you in our Tamil literature class. You're so big...so strong; the kind of Girl I've always fantasized about. I just couldn't bring myself to talk to you. I was so happy that day you asked me out for coffee." As they continued to embrace each other, Sanskar felt himself being slowly lifted off the ground and he knew that here, snug and secure in Banu's massive arms, he was safe...that no harm would ever come to him...that there was no place else he'd rather be.##'" Come sweetheart," She whispered softly in his ear ," LET'S GO HOME DARLING!
