Chapter 1: Research Paper

Fumiko's pOv

~4:25pm, Cherilyn Community College~

"So, for your project before the end of the semester," The professor started scribbling at the whiteboard with a washable black marker. "I want you to individually make a five paged research paper about the topic I will give as you get out of our classroom. Also, you're not allowed to use any internet sources."

We all groaned at the announced task. It should be no surprise on why we grumbled. It was almost the end of the semester and here we are stuck with a project, not to mention the restriction on resources. It was no problem for me, I was just sixteen years old but I'm in college because I know most of the stuff in high school but the lack of internet is a big challenge. I watched as our teacher handed a slip of paper and as each student received their, grunts echoed. I decided to stood up and get things over with. I grab the paper the professor handed me and I read it in my mind.

Topic: Incubus

I sighed and tucked the paper in my skirt's pocket. That's the thing about this class. We study about supernatural beings and their behavior. I sighed once again knowing that this time I will have a hard time on making this research paper. I barely know anything about incubus except to the fact that their sex demons. The thought of making a research paper about their activities just made me skittish. This is going to be difficult.

I fumbled for my keys at my skirt's pocket and opened the door the moment I got it out. I entered and kicked my boots out of my feet, setting it beside the first step of the house. My parents have trusted me to be able to live on my own so I'm pretty much alone. I locked my door and head straight to my room, set my school stuff aside and lie down my bed.

"Incubus, huh…" I whispered to myself. "How am I supposed to know anything them besides the internet?"

I sighed for the third time and stood up. I might as well prepare dinner to make my body active. I head to the kitchen and prepared a simple cream of mushroom soup and some rice. Once the foods are done cooking, I placed it in a plate, settled in the dining room and start digging with gusto. I finished quickly and start doing the dishes before going to my study table and started at my blank research paper.

I looked through old books in the house but none seems to be actually new about incubi. I sighed in defeat and decided that I will need a long walk out despite the fact that it's already 7:02 pm. It's fun to walk in a peaceful night of a starry night. I changed out of my uniform and put on a black sleeveless shirt, a red hoodie, a black skirt with red and black frills then I added a knee length black and red sock and slipped my boots on.

I walked out of the door after making sure I got my keys with me and locked it. I start pacing around the street and noted the cherry blossoms that lined up to the side of the road. I planned to slip my headphones on when I heard a rustling sound not far from where I'm at. I looked back but saw nothing so I shoved the thought aside and concluded it was just my imagination. Just when I was about to slip my headphones for the second time the sound of rustling bushes became louder and nearer that I chose to set my headphones around my neck.

Paranoia. That's what rushed in my brain as the deadly silence and sudden rustles from the bushes was taking over. I walked in a faster pace as I reached my home and sighed in relief when I made it back in one peace.

"I must be really lonely that a single sound makes me this paranoid." I said to myself.

"Actually, I think you should be."

My eyes widened and glanced at the source of the voice. It was from the other side of the door. I gingerly opened the door only to see a boy with long brown hair that reached his waist and brown orbs that seemed to swallow me into confusion and curiosity.

"W-who are you?" I stutteringly asked.

"My, my… I'm here to help you with your research paper." He answered with a smile in his face.

"Uh… do I know you?" I continued the questions and he just chuckled.

"No, but I do know you for quite some time now." His eyes suddenly turned sharper and have a mischievous glint in it. His smile slowly turned into a smirk as he saw my paling face. "Don't you recall all the sudden noises you keep hearing whenever you're alone since you're still a kid?"

I backed up from the door and he gladly let himself welcome in the house. He locked the door from behind and slowly approached my trembling figure. His smirk grew wider in amusement and takes a hold of my own almost teary blue eyes.

"My, my, it's been a long time. You have grown into a fine woman." He chided and cornered me by the shoe rack. "Fact about incubi, they love to get your attention without showing themselves."

He moved away and head back to the door. I felt my face was still struggling to keep the blush from getting out as I calmed down my racing heartbeat. He just smiled with his eyes closed.

"Uh, thanks but you don't have to freak me out if you're just going to help." I spoke when he was about to leave the door. He looked back with a surprised face then his smirk returned. "But what do you mean you've known me for some time now? Who are you anyway?"

"I'll tell you one day when it's time." He leaned at the doorway with his smile still intact. "As for my name, I'm Asakura Hao."
