After school, I packed everything and ready to leave class. When I tried to leaved someone spoke to me. It was Violet.
"Hey mia. Do you have time?
"Well, yes. I do have time."
"I wanted to have a word with you at the rooftop."
I was puzzled about what she's going to say.
"Alright. let's go."
I followed violet to the rooftop. the sky was cleared with no cloud. Violet closed the door and said to me.
"I know your identity Mia."
I was surprised by her words. My face turned pale. But I tried to deny to get out of her doubt.
"Huh? my identity? What do you mean?"
Violet poked her blunt face at me.
"I know you are a fox girl."
I hoped she answered something nonsense. I started feel anxious. I have to find a way to trick her. Otherwise, she'll blackmail me. Violet sighed.
"Relax. I just wanna talk. I'm also a fox girl like you. a black fox girl."
A fox girl? For real? I was confused by hearing unexpected word.
'Is she telling the truth? Or did she try to fool me?'
Violet seems to notice my thought by my face. She reveals her black fox ears and tail. My eyes become widen.
"Wow. So you're also a fox girl too."
"Now do you believe me?"
I nodded.
"Yes. I didn't expect to meet a tribe in a school."
I also revealed my big fox ears and thick fluffy tail.
"And I didn't expect to meet a fox transfer student."
Violet agreed with her.
"Let me ask you straightforwardly. Are you good at fighting?"
Her voice sound urgent for some reason.
"Well, i admit. I can handle myself in fighting."
Violet was satisfied with my answer.
"Good. Meet me up tonight 9pm at 24 convenience store. I need your help."
"What kind of help?"
I asked about it. When violet tried to answer my question, her phone bells started to ring. violet quickly pick up the phone.
"Hello?"
After she talked on the phone for few second, She hung up.
"I gotta go. My mom needs help. I'll explain when you come."
Violet leaved. I thought about why violet need my help.
The night fell, I was watching TV at my house living room. I watch the news about the store robber got arrested. Suddenly I suspect it.
'Does Violet needs my help to rob the convenience store?'
I shook my head vigorously.
"Let's try not to think like that."
I saw the clock and checked it's 8:30pm. I leaved to house and head to the store.
When I arrived at convenience store, I heard Violet voice behind the Telephone booth.
"Hey, over here."
I turned around and saw Violet. I come closer to her.
"Thanks for coming."
"So can you explain why do you need my help?"
'I swear, If she thinking about robbing the store… I'll beat her to death.'
Violet made a gesture to be quiet.
"Be quiet…"
She looked at the convenience store with slighting her head out from Telephone booth. I also watch the convenience store. The female part time worker was at the counter with sleepy face.
Suddenly, We saw two person with a black outfit ran into the 24 convenience store.
"What the…"
I couldn't see who they are because of their black cap and mask. But I can see one person is the female. We saw they were threating the female worker with a knife. Violet seems calm like she knew that would happen.
"You Told me you can fight right?"
"Well yes, I said that…"
Violet didn't let me finish my word.
"Then let's go. We must stop them!"
Violet came out behind the telephone booth and ran into store. I quickly followed her. Violet opens the entrance and ready to strike on the robbers. Two robbers were suprised by their appearance. They aim their knife to them/
"What the… Who are you?"
"Drop the knife."
Violet warned them with frowned eyebrows. the male robber shouted.
"Back away if you don't wanna be stab."
As I thought. Guess we have to do this in hard way. Violet whispered.
"I will get the one at the front and you take the other one."
I was ready to strike at female robber. Violet fight with the male robber. The male robber swing a knife to her. Violet grabbed his hand and twist it.
"urgh…"
The male robber dropped his knife on the floor.
The female robber tried to stab me. I avoid her attack and kicked her hand. But I failed to make her dropped the knife on her hand. The female robber throw her knife to me. I easily avoid her knife. the female robber seems mad at me. She charged at me with holding the fist. I quickly used a sharp kick to her stomach before her fist reached my face. She was pushed back my attack. So I gave her a triple punch to her stomach. She grabbed her stomach for a while. I jumped and kicked her chin.
"Ahhh!"
The female robber knocked down. Violet already took care of the male robber before I Knock her out. Violet panted and stared at female robber.
"That was impressive. I knew you have lot of experience in fighting."
"It's all thanks to my father's rough training. He told me I need to protect myself."
"I wish I was stronger like you."
Violet smiled at me and took of their mask. The male robber's face was a young man with slim face. And the female robber's face was a short blonde haired teenager who has a beautiful face. She stares at violet with angry look.
"Violet."
When that robber call her name. I was suprised.
"Violet, do you know her?"
"Of course I know her. She's my older sister taylor."
Another fact make me suprised again.
"Your sister?"
Violet explained to me.
"I heard taylor and her friend Justin was planning to rob here today. So I called the police. But they didn't believe me. But I still wanted to stop her before she rob here. Taylor is stronger than me. I remember she beat me in 20 second."
Now I understand Why did she asked for help. She saw I fought with a thief who stole rinda's wallet. So she must think she can stop them with me.
"I guess now I know the reason why you bring me here at midnight."
"Yes. I'm sorry for not saying sooner."
"Don't worry about it. it's a good thing that we stopped the robbery and your sister."
The female part time worker bowed her head.
"Thank you for stopping them. If it weren't for you two, those robber must stole all the money."
Taylor groaned and looked at me angrily.
"I never expected she would beat me up like this."
I look at Mina with suspicious eyes.
"Well, too bad then. We stopped your criminal plan successfully. Why did you tried to rob here?
"Can't you tell? It's because I need money. Is there any other reason?"
Violet was dumbfounded by her answer.
"You can't rob the store. If you need money, You can help mom's work at the pharmacy."
"Shut up! no matter what you say, I'm going to do whatever I want."
I started to have angry expression at her.
"Don't you realize that your action is a crime? are you aware of the risk of consequences?"
"hmph!"
Taylor turn around her face from me and didn't answer. Violet put her hand on my shoulder.
"Mia, I know my sister. She won't listen to anybody."
I heard the police siren from outside. Police arrest taylor and justin. Justin said it was taylor's idea with a trembling voice. Taylor resisted violently.
"Violet you evil. How could you! I thought we were family."
"Just because we're family doesn't mean I can let you commit crimes."
Taylor was shouting violently until the moment she got into the police car. When I saw the police car left the store Violet's expression darkened.
"I hope my father won't fall down due to high blood pressure after hearing taylor got arrested."
Violet mind seems complicated. I wish I could say something, But I can't think any of it.
"I should head back home. I'll see you tomorrow mia."
"Yeah…I'll see you tomorrow."
I stared for a moment at Violet leaving the store with a heavy step.
I headed back home and returned to my adult form. Afterwards, I took a shower and ate dinner. I changed my cloth into pajama and lied down on the bed.
"What a long night. I'm glad I can stop Violet's sister taylor and her friend. thinking about violet and taylor they both have opposite personalities. Violet is kind of emotionless but she has kind personality. Her sister taylor has a beautiful face but she has an evil personality."
I worried about violet and her families. If I was the one who heard my family got arrested for committing crime. I don't think I can handle it.
Suddenly, I remember the day when police investigated me and amelia as a murder suspect. luckily we had alibi, But I started to fear. what if Amelia is the one who kill them and make alibi? I shake my head.
"What am I thinking? There's no way Amelia could be a killer."
I forced myself to sleep. I hope I'm wrong. Because I believe my sister.
Meanwhile, in the narrow alley with no streetlights, Someone was punching Maya and grabbed her collar. It was Rachel, the leader of the boxing club. She had red hair and strong muscles.
"Please... Don't kill me..."
Maya begged for mercy. but her words didn't stop Rachel from punching her.
"You and those three of them disgust me. It was four against one! And you've got beaten by her?"
"She was strong. She wasn't like the others."
But Rachel 's rage was still simmering. She released Maya's collar. she fall on the floor. her tears streaming down to her cheek.
"I never expected that the new kid would reject my offer and beat up our members."
Rachel's eyes burned with anger.
"She's really making my blood boil. I'm going to make her into bloody face."
