Misaki City, District B.
The birds sang as the leaves swayed in the cool morning breeze, a girl's constant footsteps could be heard down the street, she was on her way to school.
"Sunimi doesn't stop following me no matter what she does, if this continues I'll always be late for class" thought the girl with annoyance.
"Midory!!" A scream stopped the thoughts of the young blonde, she made an exaggerated face of dissatisfaction before turning around, a cheerful girl was running in her direction, she would run away, but she would get tired quickly, she did not want to be tired and put up with Sunimi, that would be a nightmare.
Sunimi was the same age as her, when they were girls they were her best friends, but as they grew up something changed in Midory and she began to distance herself from her, she didn't know where that feeling came from, but it was similar to hatred.
"I finally found you, you're wicked to hide from me, next time I won't forgive you" With a tired high-pitched voice, a girl with hair black as coal appeared, she had red eyes, something that attracted a lot of attention, it was a genetic condition from a distant ancestor, it was rare to have a trait unique to Misaki, most had western traits combined with eastern traits, Sunimi was the exception to that, her pre-teen body hadn't fully developed, but It was already noticeable that he would grow with an impressive figure.
Comparing it, Midory's body wasn't as showy as Sunimi's, the girl with blonde hair and slanted blue eyes had a rigid and simplistic body. That didn't bother her since she still liked not to stand out too much.
"Why do you always follow me? I've already told you that we can meet in class" although the blonde's response had no malicious overtones, for Sunimi it was like a wound that made her feel hurt, only she knew how important it was to walk with someone to class, she didn't blame Midory for forgetting him, she felt that her old best friend had changed and although she knew the reason for it, she didn't want to accept something so bad easily.
She wouldn't take it.
"Hey! Don't be like that, you know you'll get bored if we don't go to school together, let's keep going, we'll be late" Sunimi said recovering her spirits.
"You never change," Midory sighed.
They continued on their way to school. The incredible building housed about five thousand students each year, although she also graduated thousands to university, thanks to that her fame was very good for educating future generations.
The flowers fluttered in a magical dance, the wind was brimming with tranquility and freshness.
Both girls greeted the doorman with a smile, he returned the gesture drinking a cup of coffee and reading a magazine in his cabin, sitting on a wooden chair.
A wide-open black gate welcomed the students, who crossed from time to time entering or leaving the campus.
Midory stopped in her tracks as she walked through the gate.
Sunimi, who was distracted singing a song, did not notice her friend's actions, she followed the path taking a few steps away.
The blonde's body had tensed under an overwhelming pressure, her eyes dilated looking for the cause of the strange sensation, the hairs on her body were standing on end and she could feel a chill on her back, her belly began to ache a little, almost. it seemed as if he had suddenly gotten sick, but he knew it was something else, he had already experienced something like this before, it meant that something bad had happened, but he was not able to know what, nothing looked different from the other days.
Sunimi stopped when she realized that Midory was not near her, she turned around seeing the pale color of her friend, she worried about her.
"Did something wrong Midory? Are you very pale? Do you need help?" The tone of urgency in Sunimi's voice made the evil sensation disappear from the girl's body, it hadn't lasted long, that was good, it meant that whatever had happened was nothing serious.
"I have to pay attention to the signs, maybe someone in my family had a bad day" Midory, still with suspicion in her mind, decided to go to class, she thought that maybe she had felt it stronger because she hadn't had a bad feeling for a long time, most of the time it was just minor injuries or someone close to her having a bad day.
Entering her classroom Sunimi was greeted with the smiles and voices of various girls and boys, they greeted each other and chatted excitedly about someone's birthday.
Midory sat in her chair without anyone taking her into account, they ignored her, no one wanted to greet her, everyone had branded her as a social misfit since they entered class, she didn't talk to anyone, nor did she like being talked to, they hardly believed The black hair might make her talk, but they didn't want to consider the blonde as one of their group anymore.
Midory calmly paid attention to the scenery behind the window, it seemed like a good day to go outside for a breather fresh air, while thinking about sneaking to the roof of the school, the classroom door opened, the teacher had arrived.
They all took their places.
His teacher was a rather extravagant man, Yumida Fomu liked the light blue color to the point of dizziness, he had a smile that caused uncertainty and fear alike, his half-closed brown eyes, aquiline nose with shoulder-length coppery hair made him look youthful, his smile was more radiant that day, with light steps he left his things, and at the moment of placing himself in the center of everyone's view, someone else entered.
A red-haired boy showed up wearing the school uniform, he had a foreign appeal, many deduced that he came from another country because of his facial features, his well-aligned hair, those yellow eyes that examined everything with immutability, gave the feeling of superiority. To some he seemed indifferent, but to others he was attractive.
The boy glanced around the classroom with his eyes without seeing anything that caught his attention.
"Please introduce yourself" said the teacher in a clear and severe tone.
Blue and yellow eyes made contact, Midory was mesmerized by that look so full of familiarity, the boy smiled showing a row of white teeth.
It looked like the smile of a demon.
"My name is Howard, Byron Howard, I hope I get along with everyone" he said the last thing with a wink without looking away from the blonde.
The bad feeling he had when passing the gate was back, this time more intense than ever, Byron Howard was not what he appeared to be and that gave Midory a feeling of fear.
