Hello, my name is Koru Izhumaki, and I am the, "Demon of Melodies." I wasn't always a demon, you know? Life was good when I was younger, when everyone wasn't afraid of me at school, when I wasn't considered a monster. But that all changed when they all found out my secret. This is my story, I know you don't expect it to be true, I wouldn't either if I hadn't lived it. But this story is true, every detail of it, every person mention in it.
"Good morning, Izhumaki-chan." I had just walked into class, and was already greeted by my younger brother, Kazuchi Izhumaki. Even though he's younger than me, he's also smarter than me, in many ways than just one.
Letting out a sigh, and a small groan, I looked in the way of my younger brother, "I have told you before, and I will tell you again, just because you're my sensei now, doesn't mean you have to call me by my last name. Just call me Koru like every other person." God, I really hated the fact that my brother taught my homeroom class, he got so annoying at times, and it really was embarrassing for me.
I took my seat by a kid named Othello Coleman, a transfer student from America. And even though he was American, he spoke perfect Japanese, though we barely ever talked, I sort of liked him, as a friend, that is. I was glad when class finally started, even if I hated Math, at least I was saved from the bitter whispers amongst me.
"I'll be handing out test reports from last Friday, when I call your name please come up and get your test," That's the last thing I heard from my brother, before I left my mind on overdrive, and thought about what life would be like if I weren't a demon. Maybe I'd have friends, maybe I'd have family other than my younger brother, or even good grades. Maybe I could come out of hiding, maybe I didn't have to hide my face in public… Pretend I wasn't a monster, the Demon of Melodies, to be exact, just… Pretend…
"-Maki…" whoever was speaking was too faint for me to hear, I ignored the noise, dozing off into a deep sleep. Then suddenly, a loud crash, I jumped in my seat, half gasping, half screaming, as I was abruptly woken up. Then, I heard the man's voice again, "If you think sleeping is more important than my class, then leave class immediately, Izhumaki-chan."
"N-no, sensei, I'm sorry, It's just… I'm not feeling that well…" After that I thought, Would it kill Kazuchi to call me Kuro for once, instead of Izhumaki-chan..?
Then he slammed the test on my desk, I read it quietly to myself, and then gasped, "-Only a 48, how could this be, this must be a mistake, Kazuchi!" Oops, good job, Kuro. It was against the rules in this school to call your sensei by their names, especially their first names. Kazuchi gave me a stare, and then said, "What did you just say, Izhumaki-chan?" Those in my class started to giggle, then it turned into a rather loud laugh as I just sat there with a nice blue blush on my face. Hell- Even Othello was laughing, and he was a shy, and quiet student!
"I-I… I s-said, 'Only a 48, how could this be, this must be a mistake, S-sensei.." The blush on my face grew darker, and I slumped and slid down my chair, letting my head fall to hit the desk. I told you Kazuchi embarrassed me in class, and I'm starting to think it's a hobby for him to do it, on purpose. The bell ringed, Yes, yes school is over, now I can go home, finally! that's what I thought. But then right when I got out the doors, I was pushed against the lockers.
Who knows what awaits for the lovely, "Demon of Melodies," now?
