Hey you guys! New story! Hope you enjoy it! Oh, and before you start, this story is in the category of Warriors because I am including different Clans, but the similarities end there.
I sighed as I looked out the window, staring at the rain. It had been raining for about 3 days straight, and it was still going strong.
Normally, I love the rain, but today it just meant that my swim meet was canceled. I ran a hand threw my brown hair and sighed again. "James, come here for a moment!" I heard my mom call up to me. "Coming!" I looked out the window once more, but what I saw shocked me.
A girl. Just standing there. Standing in the rain and letting it pound down on her. She turned her head in my direction, almost as if she had been waiting for me. When she turned her head fully, I gasped. I could see 2 shining silver eyes, even through the torrents downpour. She turned away and walked behind a tree. I expected her to come around the other side, but she never did. It was almost like she had never been there.
I grabbed my gray raincoat and umbrella, ran downstairs, called to my mom, "I'm going outside, I'll help you when I get back!" and ran out the door. I went to the spot where I saw the girl last. I walked around he tree a couple of times before I heard a voice behind me. " So, I take it you can see me." I spun around and was met with two silver eyes.
She had black hair in a ponytail and she had on a black shirt that was just above her belly button along with gray boot cut jeans, but no shoes. The strangest thing of all, and I almost did I double take when I saw this, was the fact that perched on her head were two flickering gray fox ears and waving behind her were nine tails.
I thought back to a legend my grandpa used to tell me, about a girl with nine tails. What did he call her…..? Oh, a 'Kitsune', the Japanese word for fox.
"Yes, I can see you. What dose that mean?" I asked the silver-eyed girl. She broke out into a mischievous grin, and she got a glint in her eye. "It means, you have to come with me." And with that, she grabbed my arm and ran into the night.
She ran to a cliff wall, since we were close to a mountain. No one dared close to the mountain because it was notorious for rock slides, but the girl- I still didn't know her name- ran up to it fearlessly. When we got to a place with a big smooth rock in front, we stopped. I heard a rumble and knew a rockslide was coming our way.
"Come on! We have to get out of here! We will be crushed!" I shouted as I saw the first bolder appear above us. "Hold on!" The girl pressed her hand to the rock, and it flashed green. Soon a keypad appeared and I had to stare. I looked up and the rocks were almost upon us. "Hurry up!" I yelled, looking from the rocks to the girl and back again.
"Almost there, almost there…." She typed in a few more things, and the rockslide apart, much to my amazement. But it was going to slow. To slow! As soon as the rocks almost crushed us, she pulled me into a dank passage, and started to laugh!
I asked, "Why are you laughing? We could have been killed!" She stopped laughing, and turned to grin at me. "I love using that entrance." I stared at her. "You mean… There were other ways to get in besides using the mountain side?"
She nodded smartly. "Yep. And plenty of them too."
I stared at her before getting up, slowly walking over to her, bringing my hands up, and in a flash, I had my hands around her neck, wildly shaking her back and forth.
"IF THERE WERE MORE ENTENCES, WHY ON GODS GREEN EARTH WOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ALMOST GET US KILLED?" I screamed. I stopped shaking her to see that her eyes were swirls. She answered, "Because it was more fun…" Before her soul came out her mouth. (A/N Anime reference.) I grabbed her soul and shoved it back in her mouth. (A/N 10 points if you can guess were this came from.)
"Now, where are we, anyway?" I asked her, pulling the girl to her feet. "And," I added as a second thought. "What's your name?" She dusted herself off and said, "I am Hunter, and welcome to The Clans Under the Mountain."
