Chereads / Kitsune's Fire / Chapter 2 - Back To School

Chapter 2 - Back To School

RING RING RINGGGGGGG!

And the first thing I did on the first morning of a new life, I wave my hand that swooshes my alarm across the room with a loud crash. Now it's just nothing but bit pieces of it...UGH. I got up from my bed and head to the bathroom for a quick shower. The warm water calms my nerves down. The first day of school can be a hassle. Meeting the new bxtch in school, player jock in the football team, a person who tries so hard to be your friend and so on and on. Typical human high school. Can't they just do their own thing and be gone with it??? Jeez...Thinking about it has already drained me...

Literally every high school I transfer to, there's always one person of the category. After done with the shower, I put on a white tank top to match with a grey long cardigan hoodie. I look at the mirror and adjust my black, loose ends hair with a hint of goldy blonde. I grab my things and head down to the kitchen. Breakfast has already been made on the counter island. Pancakes and juice. Lol...so human...But when I look up to Masako, she has the worried look that clearly means something happened.

"Onee-chan, is everything okay? That look...I know that look! What's going on?" I point at her frowned eyebrows.

Masako bit her fingers nervously. It's been a bad habit of hers when something worries her ALOT. She took a deep breath.

"I did some research and a little bit of scouting and...." she looks at me, wondering if she needs to continue any further. I just gave her the 'then??' look.

She sigh. "The high school you're going to, it's a werewolves school..."

"WHAT?!" and the bulbs in the kitchen went POP!

For the love of tail, I really need to control my emotions. Werewolves?? Werewolves school??? That is the first-ever. According to the "folklore" people believe, werewolves and fox don't mingle well together because you know....werewolf are all big and baaaaad. Pfffff what a joke.

"It's not a big deal, onee. It might just be the same as the regular high school. Only they're stronger and full of ego, that's all" I shrug.

"Yeah, that's the thing. They're strong, especially with packs. Not to mention that we don't get along with them well. If they find out about us, they won't hesitate to rip our throat out!" The entire house just started to shake like an earthquake. But it's not. It's what my sister's doing.

"Masako, calm down! We just do what we do always. Cover our scent and identity. No making friends and definitely no dating. Alright?"

Masako shut her eyes in frustration. Still debating if she wants me to be around in high school.

"Sis, if what you said is true, then that's even better. I can use my ability to enter their mind link and listen to whatever is going on in their pack"

"No. No! That's too risky. They can sense whoever is intruding their mind link." I can see the panic in her eyes.

"Onee-chan, please trust me in this. Have I ever let you down?" I place my hand on both sides of her arm. And she places her hands on my shoulders.

"No, of course...I am just worried that's all. Just promise me that you stay safe."

"Yes, sister. I will...Now let's put on a protection spell"

We stand closer to each other, face to face, place our palms against each other. We look at each other's eyes and concentrate on our power. Like witches, they have to speak out their incantations. Kitsune don't. We just concentrate on what we want to do and focus on our power core. I can feel my protection spell is transferring to my sister, vice versa. We took a deep breath the moment the spell was done. My sister gave me a proud smile and I returned the same. Then we just hug each other. We may not read minds but...we felt the same thing. The fear....the fear of losing each other and what could happen to us.

I grab my bag and head on out. My sister stands by the door, watching me leave.

"I might be back late so I can't pick you up aite!!!" she waves bye at me. And I return the same.

I put on my earphones and hit the play button on my phone. Lovesick Girls song is on. I may be a traitor for listening to Korean song but kid you not, BlackPink are badass group ever! I guess I must have been so into the song, I didn't realize a car just zoom right past me like a psycho. WHAT THE FISH WAS THAT JEEZ...PSYCHO...

It wasn't a long walk. Took me 20 minutes to reach school. From where I'm standing at the corner of the road, I see students going in and out of the school and some were chitting chatting outside. I huff and puff and start walking. I pass through a crowd of people. Jeez, I could barely breathe, how can they even talk in here? I made my way through the school hallway. Some were talking by the lockers. Some are even making out. Yep, no difference with human high school. I head to the administration office and stand behind this counter. A lady with messy hair bun with glasses on. I cleared my throat and her head look up at me.

"Um, hi, I'm Kimiya Hayame. New student here..."

"Ah yes! I am expecting you. Your sister has already prepared everything. You're a smart girl considering that you're skipping 2 grades." Her eyes went over her glasses and I just gave her a big friendly smile. She passes me my schedule, textbooks, and my locker number. I head to my locker and finally found it. I open it and place my books in it. I took a stop and focus on my hearing. I shift from one place to another. Mostly talking about their mate, how they want to do this and that, some talk about training and some other boring stuff. Never knew their life is that boring. I closed my locker and I swore I heard someone growl.

I turn to my right to see where it's coming from, the entrance of the school, and one person caught my eye and he is staring right at me with his sharp blue eyes. I can feel the kitsune inside me stirring like mad and I am trying to control myself not to let loose. I look at him again as he is at me. A voice in my head said one word.
