"Fuck!" My best friend yelled as the final alarm bell rang out over the school campus, "How the hell did we get here so late?" My friend's name is Koigokoro Inu Yukai, but I call her Koro. She is my age, a few months younger, 15. She has tan skin that vibrantly brings out her red-violet eyes. She has long golden-brown hair that goes down to her mid back with a violet-red streak in her bangs. Her normal outfit is a green sweatshirt that hangs off her shoulders, a black long-sleeved shirt underneath, loose, baggy, yet not gaudy black pants, black sneakers, and a green and black striped beanie-cap. She also wears thin, black glasses, she doesn't need them but she enjoys the fact that they annoy people.
"You decided to stop for hot-coco at Dutch Brothers." I replied, walking past her and into the building. My name is Akira Akubachi, I am a freshman in high-school, though because of my height people say I should be in middle-school. I'm at least a foot shorter than Koro. I have short, spiky, fire-red hair. I also have murky-green eyes that seem to glow slightly in the dark, like a cat's. My normal outfit was a dark-grey, long-sleeved shirt with a black t-shirt over it, loose black cargo pants, a black baseball cap, and black tennis-shoes. I smirked and turned around, watching as she adjusted her beanie.
"Is there a point there?" she asked bitterly, causing me to snicker. She glared at me.
"Yes, actually." I replied, walking towards the gym with her, "It's your fault we're late."
She stuck her tongue out at me childishly and crossed her arms over her chest. "Mr. Hanes will be mad if we're not able to do our performance." she said suddenly, causing me to groan and slap my forehead.
"Ow." I whined in monotone, causing Koro to laugh at me. I glared at her halfheartedly, a smirk fighting it's way onto my lips.
Koro smiled and grabbed my arm, practically dragging me to the gym. I smiled and rightened myself, running through the halls and matching her pace. I checked my watch. "Crap-on-a-f-ing-stick!" I yelled, increasing my speed, "We have two minutes to get in position!"
Koro's eyes widened and she sped up to match my pace. "Fuck!"
We made it with barely enough time to spare. The gym was pitch black, but the two of us had no trouble finding our positions. I had my cap tilted to where it was covering my face, my left hand holding the brim as I straitened my legs and placed my other hand on my hip, with my right foot out and pointed like a freaking ballerina. Koro was crouched down on the balls of her feet in a sitting position, her right hand appearing to adjust her glasses and her left hand resting on her knees. We were back to back. We were smirking cockily, completely used to this.
The music started and twin spotlights shined on us. I smirked even wider and instantly ripped my cap off, revealing my face. Koro, jumped to her feet and crossed her arms. We threw our heads back, and howled. The howl is our signature, considering the fact that our small group is called 'The Pack'. I looked over to our other members, giving a slight nod. The guitarist, Luna, tossed us our mikes. I caught mine and twirled it in my fingers. Koro caught hers, tossed it up in the air, and caught it behind her back. The drummer, Hailey, began the ever familiar beat that signified which song this was. I smirked as I stopped twirling my mike and placed my cap back on my head.
I placed the mike to my lips, waiting for the beat that would signal us to start. It came.
"We aren't exactly normal
But in reality,"
Koro smiled and began matching her voice to mine, punching the air with her free hand.
"We don't care!
We are always in trouble
But it's more fun that way!"
Koro got a confused look on her face as I screamed into the mike.
"Seriously?
Yeah,
Have you ever noticed
That we always smile and say;
Hello, I'm not insane
I'm unsane
Is there a problem
With what we choose?!"
I pulled my sleeve up to show a fresh bandage on my elbow.
"Is there a problem
With my scrapes and cuts?"
Koro began spinning and kicking wildly.
"Is there a problem
With being this strange?"
We both smirked and stuck up our middle fingers and screamed into the mikes.
"We reply with a bird!
And we flip it to you!"
I brought the harshness in my voice down slightly, beginning to walk backwards to the center of the room and sticking my free hand into my pocket.
"Is this what I call peace?
Or is it another form of torture?"
Koro followed me, also sticking her hand into her pocket.
"Is this my hell?
Or your version of heaven?"
Our hands closed upon the spherical smoke-bombs we had created a loooooooong time ago.
"You may never know
The demon's truth."
With that we threw the spheres to the ground, and disappeared inside the smoke. It cleared away soon after, revealing that we had truly 'vanished into thin air'.
I yelped as I fell onto my back on the roof of the school. "Ow…" I groaned. I heard a yell above me and just barely managed to roll out of the way as Koro crashed onto the roof, right where I had been. We looked at each other as huge demonic smiles worked their ways onto our features. I fell onto my back and literally yowled in laughter, like a cat. Koro however was howling from amusement, like a dog.
"I love doing that, it freaks people out." Koro said when she finally had control over herself. I smiled and nodded.
"Personally I liked it better when we shifted into a cat and a dog and ran out of the gym, everyone thought that the animals were our pets." I replied, standing and brushing imaginary dirt off of my pants. This caused Koro to go into another fit of giggles.
"I remember that." she said, smiling like a crazed lunatic, "Everyone asked us what the names were, I was Inu, you were Neko."
You might be staring at the screen right now and thinking 'What the hell is wrong with these girls?'. Well, the answer to that is…we aren't normal. Ever since we were kids we've had these weird abilities. I'm a Jumper(meaning I can teleport, Jumper just sounded cooler), and a Shifter(do I even need to explain this?). I also have wicked ass fighting skills. Koro is a Shifter, like me, but she's also a Reader(meaning she can read minds, movements, feelings…long story short she understands every language and no one can lie to her, except for me 'cause I'm just cool like that), and a Summoner(Is it really necessary for me to explain this?). She is also a fighter, though she's not as good as me since she has never had to fight for her life before.
We smiled at each other, before something strange happened. Koro's eyes widened before she started falling forward, unconscious. I tried to stand, to help her. I wasn't even given the chance to move. I felt something hit the back of my neck and my sight went black.
~time skippy!~
I was woken to something nudging me in the side. I groaned and opened my eyes, seeing a young, five-tailed panther demoness nudging me with her paw. She sighed in relief. "Finally!" she growled, her tails swishing back and forth in annoyance, "Took you long enough to wake up, mistress Akira."
I glared at my friend's summoning beast, er, one of them. "Shut up Kumori." I hissed, glaring at her. She snorted. I heard a groan from my right and turned just in time to see Koro Jump forward into a sitting position and hold the back of her head in pain.
"Ow! Owowowowow!" she repeeted over and over before finally noticing me and Kumori, "Hi, Jumper, Kumori." That's another interesting thing about us, if our minds register danger before we do we call each other by our abilities.
I tensed and glanced around us. How in the world did I not notice that we were in a clearing in the middle of a freaking forest. Koro followed my gaze and frowned, jumping to her feet and glaring at me accusingly.
"What the fuck, Jumper!" she yelled, causing Kumori to sigh and shimmer as she was sent back home, "Where the hell did you Jump us to!?"
I sighed and stood up, crossing my arms and leaning against a tree. "One: I didn't Jump us anywhere." I said with an inexhaustible supply of patience, that I only have for my friend, "Two: when I Jump, I'm the only one who passes out and only AFTER I do it. Three: I didn't have the energy to Jump farther than a hundred meters after this morning, when I Jumped us closer to the school, and after our disappearing act. And four: I have no freaking clue where we are."
She blinked then sweat-dropped and rubbed the back of her neck in embarrassment. "Heh. Sorry."
I smiled and nodded. She was about to smile back when she got a confused look on her face and she tilted her head to the side slightly. I frowned, I knew that look. She was Reading something, or someone. "Reader?" I asked uncertainly. She held up a finger to silence me.
A few seconds passed and her confused look was replaced by one of fear. "Get down!" she yelled, ducking.
I followed her a second too late as I felt something sharp cut off part of my hair. I looked up and saw what had been thrown at us, kunai. Shit-on-a-cookie! Koro looked at me with wide eyes, worried for my safety. I clenched my jaw and gave a curt nod, my face devoid of any emotion. Her eyes widened in fear and she climbed a tree and hid in its branches as I stood and grabbed one of the kunai, jerking it out of the tree. I turned to the direction the attack came from and closed my eyes, signaling to Koro to be my guide.
"Left, kunai to your throat!" she yelled. I spun, opening my eyes and moving my kunai to block the attack. I came face to face with…fuck. Sasori. I'm screwed.
"Reader!" I yelled as Sasori jumped away from me, "You couldn't tell me who I was facing! I'm gonna freaking die!"
"Sorry!" she yelled back, jumping down into the clearing with me, "You could always just Jump to a different area, Jumper."
I glared at her before jumping away from another of Sasori's attacks. "How many times do I have to say it, Reader?" I yelled back, blocking a bunch of senbon needles with my kunai, "I can't jump farther than a hundred meters, and it's brought to half that if I have a passenger. AKA you!"
"Puppet at your back." was what she replied, "Sword coated with poison at your side."
I back-flipped over the puppet, Jumping in mid-air to where I was standing beside my friend. I glared at her. "You have fliers, don't you?" I growled, "Summon them so we can get as far away from here as possible."
She shrugged. "M'k. Duck or you lose your head." she said as she ducked. I followed a millisecond later, rolling onto my back and blocking the next attack.
"Reader!" I yelled, Jumping onto the puppet's back, "Hurry up!" Another puppet appeared above me and I Jumped onto a tree branch. "I feel like freaking Nightcrawler! 'Cept without the smoke and the smell of brimstone!"
"Jumper! Behind you!" Koro yelled, freezing in the middle of her summoning.
"Huh?" I asked, looking behind me only to receive a kick in the middle of my back. I fell and landed on my back, a katana placed at my neck. I tensed as I felt a thin trail of blood running along my skin. I stared emotionlessly at Sasori as he glared at me.
"Sick 'im, Oozora!" I heard Koro yell from somewhere to my right. The next thing I knew Sasori was knocked off of me by…a giant ball of scales.
I sat up and stared at the young white dragon that had Sasori pinned by one of its talons. I sighed and let out a low whistle, causing her to let Sasori go and come to stand next to me. I climbed onto her back as I watched Koro do the same with a young black dragon.
Koro turned to me and smiled. "Let's go!" she yelled, causing both dragons to jump into the air. I lazily leaned back on mine, staring at the sky.
"Well," I said, watching as Koro's face darkened, "At least we know where we are now."
She nodded slowly, her eyes dull. "The world of Naruto." she said, then she groaned and lay back, "Fuck. How are we gonna get home? I wanna go prank people."
I sighed and shook my head. "You're a retard."
"Is there a point there?"
"Not really."
"Hey, Akira?"
"Yeah?"
"I just realized something…"
"And that would be?"
"I need to go to the bathroom."
