Zazmolina p.o.v. Chapter three.
As I lay dreaming…
I was in a house making tea; I poured the tea in two different cups and walked outside. I looked around and smiled as the wind blew past my face. I started to walk through snow over to a guy. I sat down next to him and passed him one of the cups of tea, and then I told him. "I'm happy to be with you. You make my world less hectic...."
He looked up from the cup and gazed into my eyes then I laid down on his chest, feeling his heart race and feeling the happiness inside of me....
Then....I woke up to the sound of a thud....
"Ow...that really hurt..... I have to stop falling out of bed" I said to myself, as I got up from the floor.
"Zazmolina.....time to get up. It's already noon, you can't sleep all day sweetheart."
My mother yelled from the kitchen.
"I can try though.....errrr...I don't want to get up....ahhhhhhh.....
There's nothing to do here."
I yelled back, trying to convince her to leave me be.
I laid back down.
Next thing you know....I heard..... Pitter pattering feet skimming toward me.
"Oh geez why me."
I complained, then I pulled the pillow over my head and then the sound stopped.
I looked up from my pillow to see my sister's piercing green eyes glaring at me. It was like she was staring into my soul.
"What do you want Isriha?"
I yawned as I laid my head on the pillow.
"You said you were going to take me to the waterfall so I can make a wish today."
She grumbled as she started to playfully hit me with her fist on my back.
"All right all right.... I'll go geez.... Stop hitting me already!" I said as I got back up and went into the bathroom.
It's been a few days since we left Grande Riviera to come back here to this place.... Even though this is Issy's first time here, I'm not too fond of being here. Each time the fifth full moon appears. (Which is the red moon or the blood moon some would say.) My mother does this ritual for King Kitsune {fox god in other words}. She said if she doesn't do it, all the Kitsune's in the world will start to run on a wild rampage. I guess she should have just said; to bring peace to our kind, so we don't go crazy and start killing people.
I told her that she should just tell why she has to do it to the people that kept trying to kill us every time she shows up to do it, but she doesn't listen to me it's always "I'm nearly 500 years old and I've been doing this way before you were thought of. This is the job I was chosen to do. I know what I'm doing. "She would say. I'm still a kit to her and she is your plain old stubborn fox.
I came out of the bathroom to mole over the dream I had last night. I didn't understand why I had that dream. I shook my head and then I got ready to take Isriha to see the waterfall.
"Isriha fix your hair and tuck your tails away." Mom told her.
"I don't understand why I have to.....they're my tails, I should be able to look like myself and not like a human." She replied and folded her arms.
"People don't like to see people that don't look like them. It scares them." I said as I put my green contact in my right eye.
Thank you father.
He moved here to America. (In that place you really have to hide or they will take you and pull you apart for some sort of experiment.)
He was able to get me a green contact lens to prevent people from seeing my green and purple eyes. After that we haven't heard from him at all since then.
"Well, I don't care if we do scare them... I want to look like me." She said as she folded her arms.
I walked up to her, "We scared them. The moment they see you like this, they will take you and experiment on you like they did to our father." I hissed
"Zazmolina! Enough ...that's not what happened to him..." mother hissed back at me.
"Yeah whatever…believe what you want...I know it's true." I mumbled, then I walked out through the front door.
We walk up the path that takes us to the waterfall.
We stopped at a store and bought some food, after that, we started back walking toward the waterfall.
"Zazzy....why do you say we scare them? I'm not scary..." Isriha asked me.
"Because we're different Izzy....I don't want to talk about this anymore, so can we PLEASE keep walking so that we can get there and go home." I snapped.
She nodded her head and frowned.
It makes me mad to think about why we have to change and look different just to accommodate the humans. If we didn't, I'm sure they would kill us, like they do to all, what they call; supernatural creatures.
"Sorry I forgot you don't like to talk about stuff like that." She apologized.
"So what are you going to wish for when we get there?" She asked changing the subject.
"I dunno....but just know that I only came out here for you, I have no intentions of making a wish." I lied.
"OH whatever..... I know you want to make one."she said in a coy voice
"THERE IT IS!!!" She screamed and ran to the waterfall.
(I don't see what is so important about this waterfall.....I suppose....it would be fun to make a wish though...)
I walked over to the waterfall, took out a coin, and made a wish.
(I wish people would stop trying to kill us.....and for a world meant just for people like me, so that we don't have to hide who we are anymore...so I could finally be me...)
Then I threw a coin into the water and turned around and walked away, and met up with my sister.
"See I told you..... I knew you were going to make a wish. What did you wish for.....hmmmm?"
"I can't tell you.....it won't come true if I do..."
"Aww...Zazzy you're no fun....tell me."
"No..."
She folded her arms.
"Please....."
"No...."
"Ugh fine...I'm hungry....do you have any more food left?"
"Here Izzy."
I passed her one of the sandwiches we bought at the store.
(It should be about five now....I could take her to see the wild horses on their run....)
I thought to myself and then I smiled.
"Come on....I'm going to take you somewhere else...." I told her as I grabbed her hand and started running.
We raced each other until we got there.
"The horses!!! Oh they're so beautiful.... I wish I could ride on one!" She squealed with joy.
I smiled.
"Why would you need to ride one? You're a fox, you can transform at will." I laughed.
(I thought she would enjoy seeing the horses on their run.....she is so easy to entertain.) I thought to myself.
I started to get a headache a few moments later; it felt like I just banged my head on a tree multiple times. My chest started to ache; I felt like I was choking on the air as I was trying to breathe in. Then my vision went blurry as I turned around and fell to my knees. I rubbed my eyes constantly to get my vision back. Once my vision came back that's when it happened......
I saw him.....
That guy who had entered my dreams last night.
He had whitish blonde hair. He was tall and very handsome. He was with some women and two other guys. For some odd reason I felt jealous watching him with them. I shook it off telling myself I had no reason to be.
"(You must go to him.)"
Vikki...my kitsune replied to my thoughts in my head.
("What are you crazy.....? I'm not going over there. I don't even know those people....") I told her.
Vikki can be so dramatic sometimes, I don't even know why the Moon Goddess stuck me with her, we are completely polar opposites, and it's ridiculous.
"(It doesn't stop you from wanting to go over tho…)" she said as I felt her wiggling her eyebrows.
"(You're crazy ...nuisance…. I am not doing that besides… there are too many wolf females over there I'd rather not get tangled up with them.)'" I told her honestly.
"(Well you should simply just go see him, he is our mate, our Todd, the one we will spend eternity with.)" she sighed lovingly.
("OK, I'm just going to block you out now.") I shook my head.
("What!? Why??") She asked
("One, you're giving me a headache, two, I'm not going over there, and three you make absolutely no sense. Four why the hell are you talking like that? It's kinda weird…. So, I will get back to you later when you do make sense and stop talking like that...cause I can't deal with you when you're like this...drives me nuts.") I told her.
"(Awe cute little foxy can't handle her own thoughts how adorable...you use to love talking to me this makes me so sad that I-)"
"(this is the reason why goodbye vikkie….)" I told her then I severed the link between me and her, so she couldn't say anything else.
"My...Todd huh...?"
I spoke to myself quietly.
Then the scent of palm and citrus hit me along with the wolves and another scent that I couldn't pinpoint.
We got back home and I walked past the kitchen, and saw mother sitting at the dining table with our carrier pigeon.
"Who are you sending a note to mother?" I asked her.
"Never mind that... Go get ready for dinner okay." She replied.
I shrugged it off and got ready to eat.
When we sat down to eat, I decided to ask my mom what a Todd was.
"A Todd is a male that's worthy to be with a female kitsune.....it's her soul mate. Why are you asking?" She asked me.
"Vikki spoke to me about it after I saw a guy when we were watching the horses on their run. She was being very annoying and coy about it so I had severed the link so I could have peace. But it was bothering me so I thought I'd ask you since you know everything." I told her.
She looked up at me abruptly with the strangest look on her face.
I found my soulmate without even knowing. Lucky me.
Then she smiled softly at me.
".....well, did she say what his name was?"
She asked as she started to comb her fingers through her hair.
"No." I told her with a mouth full of food
I didn't hear the name she spoke to me since I severed the link earlier. So I asked her. She spoke his name in my mind as I said it out loud.
"Sojiro....Is-u-mora? Strange name..."
She stayed silent and continued to eat.
"I wish I could find my Todd..." Isriha broke the silence.
"You wish for everything…" I rolled my eyes.
"It will happen for you....someday." mother spoke gently.
After we were done with our dinner, we got ready for bed.
I laid in my bed and repeated his name until I fell asleep.
I had another dream about him that night
I was on top of him and then I leaned down to kiss him. I took off his shirt. And he took off mine; we undressed each other until we were completely naked. I felt my body shake with passion as pain shook up my spine. He turned me over and was now on top of me with my legs wrapped around his waist, he spoke something softly in my ear.
Then I fell out of the bed again....and woke up.
I shook my head; I came to the realizations that 'Holy crap' we were having sex in that dream!
I sat up on the floor and hugged my bed.
I was so shocked.....
"(Your desire to be near him are growing stronger, now that he's close ...we have to meet him. You have no choice in the matter the Moon Goddess proclaims this")
Vikki told me in my head.
I can feel her going wild inside me. She is so anxious at the thought of meeting our mate, she just doesn't know when to quit.
(Ohhhh...why did I have to fall out of the bed.... geez... why couldn't I be asleep for a few more minutes. I don't know how I am going to meet him, but we will figure it out… somehow... Vikki.) I growled in frustration.
I walked out of the room and saw my mom sending out the carrier pigeon again.
I watched as she let him fly off, then I went to the bathroom and got ready to take a shower and get ready for the day. It was I and Isriha first day at school.
