"Hey! Wake up, sleepyhead!"
I moaned and rolled over, trying to ignore Daarrei's voice as I teetered on the brink of consciousness. He wouldn't let me go back to sleep though, and sunk his sharp claws into my arm. I yelped and sat up, flinging the covers, and Daarrei, into the air. He slammed into the bin and it fell on him, covering his glossy black fur with sweet wrappers and empty packets. I shook my head to clear my it, then picked my way through the mess on my floor to the bin.
"Hey right back at you, Daarrei. Why'd you have to go waking me up, huh?"I said softly while I put the bin back up and started putting stuff back in.
"Damn it, 'zura! You actually threw me! Its a good thing cats always land on their feet, isn't it? If I'd been in my human form you would have whacked me right round the face!"
"I know you'd be fine even if i did, Daarrei. You're the strongest person I know so far, I mean, you could throw me if you wanted to!"
"Hey, 'zura, we're wasting time here. You're going to be late."
My brain took a moment to process that last statement. Late? I thought. What for? Then I remembered that I was going to join True Cross Academy today, so I jumped to my feet.
"Ok. You, out. Bring your clothes. It's annoying when you don't just transform in your room. You can still walk in cat form, you know. I'm going to get changed. When you're ready, go wake up Florence if I haven't already. See you downstairs in ten, Ok?"
He mumbled his agreement and dragged his clothes into the corridor. I started changing out of my pajamas and into my school uniform. There was a creak from my sister's room as she rolled over in her bed. I went into the hallway to get my shoes. Daarrei was still in cat form and was trying to shove his clothes into his shoulder bag, with little luck. Having put on my shoes, I knocked on Florence's room. "Ah! Quick, Wheatly, get in the wardrobe! 'Zura'll freak if she sees you!" She whispered, as if I couldn't hear. I sighed and walked in. She had her hands in the air, pushing her 'invisible' boyfriend into the wardrobe.
"Oh, come on, Florence, you know that he doesn't exist yet."
She looked at me with her shimmering blue-grey eyes and flicked her strawberry blonde hair.
"He will soon. It's almost full moon. Then I'll make him exist."
We were nothing alike even though we were sisters. She was short, with mid length hair and a tendency to overreact to certain things. I, on the other hand, was tall, with long, dark chocolate coloured, hair and deep emerald green eyes. She got dressed, then we padded downstairs to have breakfast.
I looked at my watch. 8:30? Oh,no! I ran to the door, grabbing Daarrei on the way. Florence dashed after me as i sprinted towards True Cross Academy. When I got there I jammed the key in the lock, shifting Daarrei onto my right arm. Florence came and helped me and we dashed into the massive building together, scrambling to the right room and stood panting in the hallway. I looked at Florence and she motioned for me to go first. I motioned at Daarrei and Florence mimed an 'oh, yeah' then opened the door for me.
"Ah! That'll be them now," I heard from inside as I swung the door open with my foot. I tripped as Florence came up behind me, and Daarrei was thrown into the air for a second time as I face-planted on the floor. A few people giggled, Florence included, but they shut up when the teacher came to help me up. I thanked him but ignored the offered hand and got up by myself. I apoligized to Daarrei, then stood next my sister as the teacher silenced the class. A strange feeling made me shudder and I almost dropped Daarrei again.
"Alright class," the teacher said," These are our new students. They will be joining us from now on, so make them feel at home, okay?"
I decided to introduce us, since I knew that my sister wouldn't speak up first. "Umm... Hi? My name is Azura Kynold, nice to meet you. My sister over there-" I motioned at Florence," -is Florence Kynold."
"Umm... N-nice to meet you?"
" And this-" I motioned at Daarrei,"-Is Daarrei. He doesn't have a last name. Or so he says."
" Nice to meet you." Daarrei said, to everyone's surprise. The weird feeling hit me again and I jumped. Daarrei looked up at me in concern. I shrugged him off. After all, It was the same feeling that I had had when I first met Daarrei, so it couldn't be a bad thing. I looked at the teacher, my emerald eyes meeting his pale blue ones. Information about him dribbled into my mind. 15 years old. Has twin brother. Is son of Satan. This shocked me and I looked at a class bench, covering this strange action with a " where can we sit?"
You see, my sister and I inherited strange powers from our mother, who died in childbirth. I inherited the ability to see certain things from whoever I look in the eye.
" You can sit wherever you like, I guess."
My sister chose a place for us to sit. Her power was to be able to create anything that she could imagine, but only on a full moon. They both had their drawbacks.
"Hey, 'Zura," whispered Daarrei to me while Florence started asking the teacher awkward questions," 'You alright? You look a bit pale and you were being jumpy earlier. Is anything wrong?"
Damn, I thought, trust him to notice every little thing.
" Nah, nothing's wrong. Geez, you pay so much damn attention to me anyone would think you fancy me," I teased," as if anyone would."
He didn't reply to the jest, which worried me. Either he's in a bad mood or... he does fancy me. I blushed at this thought. No, no, he is probably just in a bad mood, I thought as I tried desperately to conceal my blush before-
" Ooh! 'Zura! Why 'you blushing?"
Damn, she got me. "Aah... I was just remembering when I tripped..."
I blushed a bit more as I actually did remember that.
"Oh. Ok, I guess..."
Yeah... uhh... I guess that's the first chapter... Please Review! Onigai! *bows*
