Chapter 5 - Tosai: School of Fear and Fright

Just as the gruesome monsters began to step out of the mist and as one lunged out at them he saw one clearly. A black creature who looked as if it was made purely out of the smoke it emerged from , with black eyes and a mouth full of fangs. It had large bull horns curving out of its forehead and going straight up and goat legs, large eagle wings. It roared as it lunged at them.

Just then they heard quite a different noise. A gentle song of a harp. A woman dressed in all white appeared. Alex gasped. The woman had white hair and red eyes, not to notice she also had horns curving out of her head and going up and a red twilight star mark on her forehead. She stepped into the mist and stood in front of the enraged Amy. She moved her hand to Amy's face as if to caress it but brought her fingers together and snapped them.

Everything went back to normal so quickly that Alex almost didn't catch it. The mist and everything went back into Amy and all her scales disappeared. She stared up at the woman confused. The woman held her hand and looked at her for a while as if explaining the entire situation to her, Which Alex thought was quite impossible. "Words can't explain this." He thought. " And I'm not using words" The woman responded, "After all, there are many things that words can't explain, Aren't there?" Alex looked at her for a moment then realized, "This woman could read MINDS!" "Very good." She praised. Amy sat down deep in thought. The woman had helped her UNDERSTAND everything Alex had said but had no idea what to do with the information even though the woman had had the decency to explain every bit and apologize profusely that her gramma never knew what was easy for her was hell for others and even after the fact that she had almost killed her that she loved her and something else no... That particular thing she would think about later.The woman smiled at her as if saying "Take your time." She closed her eyes and her hair turned black and the horns went back into her skin and when she opened her eyes, they were light blue. She picked up an empty crystal bowl and stepped towards her best friend. Alex thought she wanted more curry. She stood in front of Gramma. Gramma muttered, "Oh! Do you want some curr-" CRASH! The woman had smashed the curry bowl into Gramma's head. Alex gasped and was about to say something when the woman gave him a red-eyed look, literally, which shut him up.

"Now, my most esteemed principal. Let's have a little chat shall we?" The woman said, her eyes red. "In front of the kids sera…." That's when Sera lost it. "OH I SEE HOW IT IS YOU CAN THROW YOUR KIDSS TO A CHIMERA BUT YOU THINK THEY CAN'T HANDLE A SHOUT" She screamed. "I didn't throw them.." She said defensively but Sera cut her off. "UNARMED, DEFENCELESS, MIGHT AS WELL HAVE THROWN THEM." "I helped them with the vinegar powder and gave Amy that perfume.." She began and was cut off, once again. "You sent them to fight a demon with cooking ingredients and amenities! What were you thinking?" Sera said now disbelievingly. "Stop." said Amy. Everyone jumped. They had all forgotten that she was still there.

"More shouting isn't going to fix anything." Amy said looking tired. "She's right," Sera said. Gramma looked relieved. "Apologize at once." Sera continued. "Not needed" Amy said, "Just start explaining." Her Gramma said "No, She's right. I'm sorry." Alex gasped. Gramma never apologized.

"And for your explanation." She said, "We will need introductions. This is Seraphina Star, my vice principal. (Seraphina bowed) And I am Estelle Glimmers, Headmistress of Tosai, School of Fear and Fright, and WE are monster hunters" She finished the last line by opening her arms wide as if to hug everyone.

"Grand as always." Sera said jokingly. "Shut up" She replied and they laughed as Amy sighed. It was going to be a long weekend.
