Chapter 1 Evolution Revolution
It was September and so far Nikki's birthday passed on June 26th, followed by Niakanji's birthday on July 24th then Zabuza's on August 15th, and Giselle's on August 24th, as the summer died Haku watched as those closest to him surrender their humanity to be blown away with the soon changing leaves.
After coping with the news of being a Yuki Yokai, Haku, Rydia and Gaia bonded with Zabuza over changing their form, including Nikki, who completed her transition as a teen in their circle as their researcher. Willow and Joran were the most help of all the Scouts because with Joran's age he knew how it was to only go with the flow and work with the body that may start turning on you, and with Willow's transformation from man to woman she knew how it felt to finally let a drastic change in lifestyle set you free but still remain yourself.
Putting on robotic fairy wings from one of Willow's favorite mission locations Steamwing Manor became the extension of the surprising detailed makeup routine for jock Gaia, wanting to make her transition as easy as possible and most dates for her and Bethany doubled as training and making her a known face in the fairy community. Kisame and Zabuza spent time in demonic circles and official historical sights, preferring to gain information from demons and what was important to them, trying to decide which sub culture fit like the shirt that became a second skin on the weekends.
Finally, Haku procrastinated for a few days, hoping that the morning light would disprove the truth, the same way a monster in the closet was no more than a discarded sweater. After going through the other stages of grief from breaking the bones of cronies the Cage sent regularly to do war with the operatives in anger, to trying to talk to Sorano and reluctantly letting Nikki secretly nurse him out of depression, calling those moments quiet days like the ones her mom has.
Haku then decided to research and see if knowledge made him less wary. Luckily Nikki and a Cyclops named Zahara were library volunteers and claiming not to find anything wasn't an option. He learned how lucky he was to be part of such a legacy and that no matter what he was still Haku of the Yuki Clan, the first Yuki-Onnas and how in a sense he was evolving as Rydia did about becoming a Rusalka. Rydia now almost thought about how evolution may be glamorous, using her paycheck to support a new much more elegant persona. Her now usually in an elegant half bun with beach waves and her clothing, mostly flowing cool and colors that she tried to make flow just so as she practiced becoming flirtier and seductive.
