Gabriel: eighteen years old who appears to be younger than that, short blonde hair and blue eyes, wears black and white school uniform and wears a red and silver cross pendant. His life would soon be turned around by a special someone who has been watching him for some time now and right now he is about to get his life turned around and enters into the true world that he has never seen before.
Gabriel just finish school and is about to go for a holiday with his friends, he and two of his friends stands in one of the classrooms talking about where to go this time around, he would just sit there by the teachers table looking up at the two talking to one another while he was just thinking about something else.
"Yo... Gabriel... Gabriel can you read me?" one of them said looking at him; he started to flick his hands in front of him.
He finally gets out of the zone looking up "What?"
The guys slightly laugh at him "Damn keep that up and you won't be getting yourself a girl... by the way how is your job hunting going?"
He sighs and looks away "Don't bring that up..."
"Well this is your second job your about to do, do you think you can get in this one?"
"Getting that job in that work place is my last shot, if i don't get this then i will be getting kicked out of my apartment and will be stuck with my mum and sister."
"Well good luck man... hope we see you again... as for me i got to do more school junk at this academy, damn that's annoying."
"Maybe i can get into it." Gabriel slightly smiles at him
"No way man you won't be able to get into this one..."
"Fine then..."
The three heads out of school before midnight comes by, Gabriel goes to his apartment noticing a few boxes full of his stuff, getting ready to head back home if this job fails, he would turn on the living room lights and the kitchen for him to have some beef noodles by the table, turning on the kettle to boil it up then pours some in the cup of noodles and waits for a while before eating the noodles.
While he was eating he started to worry for the moment but he place his hand over his cross that he still wears then let's go and continues eating his noodles until there is nothing left, dumping the cup in the bin then changes clothes, wearing something else for tonight. He takes off the school uniform and wears normal clothes, he puts on a gray shirt with a shield in the middle and two eagles facing the other ways of one another, their wings were spread to the side behind the shield and there was an A in the middle of that shield while the words 'Adversity' all in capital letters lies at the top. He covers most of it with his black jacket with white symbols all over it around the arms and the back and front, putting on just normal black pants and heads out of the apartment, locking the door before moving by the side of the road heading towards a bar that was close nearby, moving to the city for him to see if he has the job or not.
He sits in the corner drinking some water waiting for the man to arrive, he did checks around seeing some good looking women but he would stop for the moment as he spots a woman with white long hair standing by the counter of the bar taking a sip from her drink he was about to get up but then someone he knew would walk over towards him and sits down next to him.
"Hey Gabriel... well i might as well cut to the chase then..."
"Yeah... whats the word, do i have it?"
"Well i am sorry Gabriel but you don't got the job, someone else that was more qualified to be able to fill in that slot."
"Are you serious?"
"If i wasn't serious i wouldn't be here. Look the situation changed okay we already had many people that wanted this job but we couldn't get all of you, we found only one person to fill for that job and it wasn't you."
He sighs looking to the side "Unbelievable."
"Besides we couldn't pick you because you don't seem to fit for the drop." He leans forward "You do not have a car, you just finish school and dropped out of an academy and got suspended once, you are holding up in an apartment but not for long so we couldn't pick you."
"Damn it..."
"I am sorry Gabriel... there's other jobs out there that you can find." He stands up and walks out of the bar.
Gabriel stands there looking down for the moment; later that night he gets to the counter of the bar and got a beer but was told to see some ID before getting a drink, he would mumble to himself before taking a sip "Those sons of bitches..."
"Trouble with paradise?" a female voice spoke out behind him, walking close to him to sit next to him by the counter
"You have no idea..." he doesn't turn his head to face her, he keeps drinking "Damn case... and now i have to head back home, head out of here."
"Oh really?"
"Since i can't pay my rent i have to get out of here, so much for a vacation out of here... i should have went to a college or an academy when i had the chance." He finishes half the glass of beer.
"Well i am sure you can figure something out..." she drinks the rest from her drink then gets up but she whispers something in his ear "Maybe your luck will change..." she then walks out of that bar.
He would turn back but he couldn't see the one who spoke to him, after that he pays for the drink then leaves the bar returning back home, halfway he would start to call his sister on his cell phone.
Took a while for her to pick up but finally she answered "Hello?"
"Hey sis it's me Gabriel."
"Oh hey brother! Did you get the job?"
"No i didn't get the job, i need your help to get the stuff out of my apartment and send them back home."
"Well uhh... sure i guess, but i would probably be coming late so i hope that's ok."
He thinks for the moment "Yeah i guess i can wait a while."
"By the way mom called me saying that to tell you that if you did fail she got an application or an academy, don't know what it's called probably somewhere close or something."
"Hmmnn alright... i have to hea-" he stops for the moment checking the phone noticing the batteries died out "That's just great..."
He place his phone away and looks up noticing cloud cover coming in, probably going to rain soon. "Can this day get any worse?"
"I can make your day better." The same voice he heard from the bar but was nearby.
He looks around seeing no one nearby "Hey... show yourself."
"Do you want your life to change?" she soon shows herself in the dark alley but he couldn't see her face only a shadow.
He looks over seeing her walking away, he would give chase "Hey!" he moves through the alley but she was nowhere to be seen "What the hell was that..." he moved his hand up holding the pendant for the moment.
He turns back and suddenly the woman was right in front of him, causing him to freak out and lean against the wall behind him, this woman was beautiful had long white hair and red eyes, she wears a white shirt that had her chest opened a bit and a short skirt and long boots.
She got close to him placing her hand over his shoulder "Do you want to be different?"
He would remain silent, his eyes wide looking at her red eyes as she looks back at him. "Do you want your life different? I can help you with that if you trust me..."
"Trust... you..."
"I guess you would have to find out." She smiles holding him against the wall then got close to him, she had the fangs of a vampire and then she would bite hard on his neck, biting down on him hard causing his pendant to go falling down his shirt onto the ground.
He froze feeling the immense pain he is getting from that woman, he couldn't get off of her and soon with that loss of blood he would fall to the ground felt like he was about to pass out, sitting down against the wall while she backs off licking her lips with his blood.
She looks down at him "Well then... your blood is different from the others i have taste... i guess my father was right about you..." she said to him as he was close from getting a pass out. "Well don't die on me yet... i am not here to kill you." She got close to him holding him sitting there not letting him fall to the ground "I am here to set you free."
She moves back and moves her hand close to her face so she can bite herself, drinking as much blood as she can in her mouth then moved closer to him seeing his eyes half closed, she would open his mouth then kisses him, sending her blood go down his throat, some blood would go down his face, he doesn't know whats going on but soon he started to feel warm.
Once she gives him her blood she moves back "Come and find me Gabriel... you find me and i will make sure your life turns around..." She lets go of him and he falls to the ground soon he passes out in front of her "Sleep now Gabriel."
The sun rose up and dawn went by, Gabriel was still asleep but instead of lying in the alley he was in the apartment just lying on the ground inside the living room. He would slowly get up feeling his head was killing him, felt like he had a hangover but he remembers what happen last night but he couldn't remember what happen to him in that alley way but the moment he tried to figure it out he would see a flashback of that woman and another one of him getting bitten in the neck, he moved his hand over his neck feeling no wound or anything, it was just normal and cleared like it never happen.
He moves to the bathroom and checks the mirror looking at his neck seeing nothing "Was it... a dream... felt real..." he soon noticed that his pendant was gone "No..." he looks back and runs to the living room looking at the ground "Where is it... where is-"
Suddenly someone was hitting the door hard outside, it was the apartment manager "Gabriel hurry up and get out of there, i got folks ready to get into that place!"
"Just... give me a minute!"
"Now Gabriel!"
Gabriel lets a deep sighs and looks around trying to find the pendant but couldn't find it anymore "Damn it... of all the things does it have to be that?"
He stands up and unlocks the door to head outside seeing his twenty year old sister standing there by the car hands on hips, she had long black hair with a pony tail and blue eyes like his, she wears blue jeans and a blue shirt and jacket, and she also has the same pendant he had.
She was crossed looking at him "What took you so long? I got here a while ago just for you and yet you were still asleep."
He walks down the steps scratching the back of his head "Yeah yeah i didn't know i would wake up late."
When he walks down the steps she looks at his chest noticing the pendant is gone "Oh my god you lost the pendant didn't you?!" she grabs his neck "If you lost the pendant..."
He pushes her off of him "Enough... Mina just help me out i probably put it in the boxes." He turns back and walks back up the apartment to grab one of them while she follows and does the same thing.
Just when he picks up a box he would start to see a flashback of what happen that night, hearing the words of what she said to him "Come and find me Gabriel... you find me and i will make sure your life turns around..." He was about to drop the box but he hold it tight then turns back and walks to the car to place the boxes at the back.
After that he gave the keys to his apartment manager then sits in the car while Mina walks over shutting the back and gets ready to head out "Off we go... back home little brother." She slightly smiles and started to start the car then drives off out of there.
Gabriel would remain silent leaning against the side while Mina also remains silent but she keeps looking over to him sometimes thinking of saying something but doesn't until they make it back home, after that the two gets out and moves to the small house noticing the door was locked so he turns back and walks to help Mina get his junk out of the car and in the house while she goes to unlock the door to head inside.
Later that day when it got dark his mother finally arrived and during the dinner time she started to hand over this paper of this strange symbol in the middle of this. "What is this?" he asked looking at his mother then to Mina
"Well i said about this academy... i think you will be alright being a part of a new school..."
"Are you sure... i mean i just got out of my school and i just got kicked out of job..."
"Then it's perfect for you to start again at the academy, someone dropped this and i thought maybe use this advantage, just take it..."
"Just do it Gabriel... your pretty much going to slack off around here anyway." Mina said while eating
He lets a deep sighs "I don't have a choice in this don't I?"
"You got a choice... were just helping you out darling..." she smiles while finishing off her food then started to clean up
After that he goes to bed with the paper noticing the time of the pickup is early in the morning, he would think about this then place it down and tries to sleep, he bets on his life he would start getting dreams about her again and he would, seeing her appearing and biting his neck, he even started to blush a bit as she kisses him while he was down, he felt that moment and kept seeing it a few times but after that he finally wakes up as his alarm clock went off causing him to sit up off the bed looking over at the clock then moves his hand over his neck not feeling the pendant, because of that woman he lost something important to him, now he has broken his promise he did long ago.
Gabriel would get ready for this school wearing just his clothes and stands outside saying his farewell to his sister and mother, heading towards the location where the bus will be stopping, it won't be long before one will come by and will be jumping on the bus to head off elsewhere. Once he got on that bus he was the only one on there he felt like something is wrong but this was correct this is the bus he has to get on to get to this academy but he has never heard of this place before but he would just have to put it up and hope for the best.
He sits at the back thinking about alot of things, thinking bad things are about to happen and he will probably get kicked out of that academy as soon as something bad happens, he looks out the window seeing a tunnel they are about to head through, once the bus gets through the tunnel he notice something strange is going on, it felt like an earthquake is happening inside this tunnel causing him to hold the front seat tight looking over at the bus driver smiling as he keeps driving, he did notice that the walls inside this tunnel started to change weirdly he can't even describe or know what the hell is going on.
"What is happening... hey buddy whats going on around with the tunnels?" He stands up after the earthquake was over
"You will find out." He starts laughing as he keeps going, making his way out of the tunnel.
After that he stops and gets off the bus looking out seeing this place all dead, the trees were dead and the ground looked like it was blighted, felt like he walked into a Halloween place but he hasn't been here before.
He looks back at the bus driver "Is this even the right place?"
"Yep... welcome to Yokai Academy." He closes the bus door and drives off elsewhere.
Gabriel lets a deep sighs looking back "Well then... guess i got no choice... on i go." He started to move through the forest seeing a path that has to take him somewhere, heading through he keeps walking until he makes it to this place.
Gabriel keeps moving forward he felt like he was being watch from the wilderness, he continues moving forward until finally he quickly turns back "Whose there?!" He shouts out but he saw bats flying over him heading elsewhere. "Bats..." he lets a deep sighs "Unbelievable..." he turns to the side then suddenly he took a hit from a bike that was falling down the cliff that was close to him, hitting his face and sending the rider and him to the ground.
He slowly wakes up feeling a sour on his back he slowly sits up "Damn it... damn who did..." he looks over seeing a girl lying there. He quickly gets up and moves over to her "Hey... you alright?"
She slowly moves her head up "My... head... whats your problem..." she looks up at him and froze for the moment, she has green eyes, flaming orange hair, and fair skin. She keeps her hair tied in two bushy ponytails with big red bows. Her outfit is her school uniform, which is unlike others.
She wears a white shirt and a red sailor girl top, with buttons and a tie split in two. She wears a short yellow-green skirt and long red-brown stockings with a white stripe at the top. She wears brown prom heels with bows and has a little bracelet on her left arm.
"Did you have to ram in front of me?" she stands up looking down at him
Gabriel stands up "Yeah sorry about that, you just came out of nowhere..." he takes a step back looking at her clothes "Your heading to this academy also?"
"Yeah... of course."
Gabriel looks over to the bike and walks over to pick it up "Here... sorry about that you just came out of nowhere..."
She walks over to him "Yeah well i didn't expect that would happen..." she takes the bike off of him "But... thanks..."
"The names Gabriel..."
"Kokoa..."
"Shall we?" he nods to the side then walks forward heading back on the path
She would follow him walking by the side of her bike "First time being here?"
"Yeah... thought of giving a shot at this place since i didn't have my shot at this other academy..."
"Well i know my sister is here... and when i find her..."
"Hmn?"
"Oh nevermind..."
He sighs and keeps walking, Kokoa looks at his neck feeling this sensational urges to bite him but tries to stop herself, she hasn't felt like this for a long time the last time but she started to figure out he isn't like her and with that she would keep an eye on him but she looks forward seeing the top of the roof of the academy.
"There it is... Yokai academy..."
"Yeah... seems like it. Well Kokoa until next time..." he started to head over towards the place then she would follow him, there they will meet many people at the front of the academy, some were like them while others wear the school uniform greeting others as they walk inside heading towards the gym.
"Maybe this might turn out to be fine after all." He thinks about it as he walks towards the crowd "Let's find out..."
