Chapter 1
Once upon a time….isn't that how all beautiful stories begin, but that wasn't my life. I'm not a beautiful story, I'm full of sour beginnings and crazy continues. But there isn't an end yet I mean if there was how would you be reading this?
Let me introduce myself, my name is Hotaru Tomo and I live in Japan. 3 years ago when I was 15 I had just a normal life with a normal family and normal friends in a normal school. Then one day something happened that would change my life forever.
"Could you wait up for 5 seconds?" I yelled to my friend Ami in Japanese. Don't worry I'll translate it all to English. "Could you wait up for 5 seconds?"
I'm coming to the conclusion that you are in no hurry to get to Raye's house for study buddies" Ami replied. As you might have noticed Ami is smart, very smart. She was short and simple with dark brown hair cut short a little bellow her ears. She was wearing our school uniform like me, a white shirt with a blue sailor like collar and a short blue skirt. She got the highest grades in our class and I on the other hand wellll, uhh.
"we are almost to the temple," she chirped. We climbed the tall steps to the temple were Raye lives with her grandpa
just then Mina came running in behind us late as usual. Mina was a medium height with long blonde hair flowing down her back that was always tied up in a ribbon, she too was wearing our school uniform. But Mina always had a sort of sparkle to her and was the dits of our little groupie.
"Hotaru why are you and mina always late. Your such a scatter brain,"Raye yelled at me. Now Raye was just beautiful, she may be rude to me a lot but she was just gorgeous, don't tell her that I said that though. She had pretty raven black hair that was worn long past her back. She had a wonderful set of brown eyes that twinkled in the sunlight. She was wearing her temple work clothes, a white robe looking thing with baggy pants and Japanese sandals. Even if she wasn't working she would still not be wearing our uniform, she goes to privet school and some how fate put us together. But as I was saying Raye is mean to me but not Ami.
"Oh Ami I didn't see you there, hello." Raye said then she bowed. Yah that's what we do in Japan we bow.
We walked into the small temple together. There sat the rest of my friends. Lita our tough girl, lita is slightly older than the rest of us because she was held back a grade, she had brown hair tied up in a pony tail as always. She was tanner than the rest of us and was wearing the same rose earrings she always wares. She is strong and it shows in her arms and leg muscles and could probably beat up all of us put together, but she was nice and used her strength for good not evil like fighting bullies and such. Then there was Darien my boyfriend, he is wonderful in so many ways its hard to describe him. He has jet-black hair cropped short, he always looked nice and put together and wore a smile often because hes with me so much. He loves me for who I am and is always true, and I swear our love is destiny. Then there was my sister Rini, not really a friend more of a she-tags-along sort of thing. Shes a tiny little thing which makes scene sense she is only 8. we look a lot alike other than hair styles, mine is straight while hers is always pulled up in odd little pig-tail sort of things. She has a bright smile and her eyes are magical.
We all helped around with our home work. Im not exactly the sharpest crayon in the box actually im pretty dull.
"hotaru what is this?" rini said as sh held up my bombed test, a 37.
"none of your business Rini, put that back" rini can be so annoying some times.
"Rini are you even learning anything from sudybuddies or do you just come to look pretty for darien?" sneered raye. Yah so can she.
"shut your trap raye and hey at least I have a boyfriend to look pretty for!" I shouted back and made a face by pulling down the skin under my eye and sticking ot my tongue. She did the same. We butt heads all the time.
"hotaru raye calm down." Lita said, so we let go of each other, I don't know when we grabbed each other eather, but we did what she said. It's a bad idea to get on litas bad side. She got kicked out of her old school for fighting. Bad right?
I scooted a little closer to darien maby to steel a kiss before study buddies were over but suddenly rini, shoved between us and hugged him because she likes him too.
"Darieeeeeen, could you take me to the ice cream shop in your car please?" Rini asked.
"Well sure rini, wanna come too hotaru?" darien said
"sure" I said, but on the inside I was screaming ugggh why does she have to be so much like me why cant he just ignore her?
"How 'bout we all go?" mina asked
"Sure " was the chorus of replies and so we drove over to the ice cream shop in dariens car double buckled and got some icecream. Darien then bought me the ice cram.
"oh darien, your so good to me" I said in aww
"hey what about me?" rini said like I said shes annoying.
Later that night…
I lay in bed dreaming of my boyfriend when I herd a noise and sat up.
"whos there?"
"Oh don't mind me this will only hurt a bit" said a female voice from behind me. I turned just in time to see two pointed ears. Wait what? Just then some sort of likwid poared over my head threw my hair and down my back. For a sec it burned like heck but then it was gone.
"ehem sorry about that, my name is luna and I have been lokkeing for you for quite some time." The voice was fro m a tiny wolf but not a baby it loked wise but the size of a cat. Wait did it just say something
"excuse me but are you listening to me?"
"yes, no, how are you talking what did you poar on me?" I demanded.
"what I poared on you is the ability to become a wolf. I wa sborn able to talk and I will explain it all In good time" she stated. I was about to scream but then there was a strong hand over my mouth and it wasn't the wolf.
"just listen to her hotaru and I think youll understand what shes saying." It may had been dark but I would know that voice anywere, it was darien. then he let my mouth go.
"darien whats going on" I turned around "what happened to you!" he had two pointed teeth coming from his mouth and his ears looked like a wolfs I was scared now and so I embrased him he held me there telling me a stoy
over a millennium ago there lived a good queen and a princess they, along with there kingdom could ghost between wolf and human and lived in a different universe then our milky way on a planet called nabet. There was also a prince of a planet next to theres and he came to nabet and fell in love with the princess. they were together for many years until an evil queen named queen beryl came to nabet and brought a deep evil over the land and the only way the good queen, queen serenity was her name, and the only way she could save all the wolf people from the tragedy was if she sent them all away as complete humans to earth. So the Queen Serenity sent them away by the power of the emporium crystal into these little bubbles to be reborn as children of Japan."
Wow I was speechless, well, not exactly. "Did the queen Serenity die?"
"yes while saving the wolf culture the queen sacrificed herself," Luna answered then added "Do you know who these people are?"
"Huh?" I said "I thought it was just a story"
"no, the princess is you and the prince is darien, the liquid I poured on you brought you back to your original state of being a morphed between wolf and human, the pointed ears and teeth will were down in the morning and then this weekend we will work on how to use your new powers" luna said
No, stinking, way, I couldn't possibly be a princess from a different universe and have powers and can turn into a wolf!
"This isn't possible!" I whispered "why'd you turn us back now, why now?"
"Because queen beryl has returned to seek revenge on the wolf kingdom by destroying earth" luna answered dramatically.
