My mouth slightly dropped. Rose is the most powerful?! But how, I mean she is strong. But the strongest of her kind!? How? "Or so what I've heard. She hangs out with a group. They seem to up her game on some strengths. Her best friend May is faster than her in flight, and her mate Ruvel is stronger then her strength wise. From what I've heard Rose main strength is her magic." I nodded and slightly leaned on his arm, draping my legs over his. I felt my ears twitch about and my tail was lightly swishing from side to side. A low sigh escaped my lips, as my ears flattened. Ray rubbed my back slightly, it felt nice. "Do all Devil Angels have magic?" "Yes they do, we can learn any magic. It's also very powerful, especially when we use our main elements." My ears perked, I moved my head to rest on his shoulder to look at him. A small smirk present on my features. "What's yours?" He chuckled lightly. "All Devil Angel's have two main powers." He held up two fingers. "Mine are ice and iron." "Iron?" He nodded then held up his arm, in a matter of seconds it turned to a silver and was harder than rocks. My ears perked up. "Cool!" "I have simple spells of plant, dimond and I have healing saliva." I cocked my head to the side, healing saliva? How does he know that? He chuckled slightly. "You can find out by putting saliva on a open wound. The more ampt you are in power the faster the healer's body heals. But it's not a spell you have to be born with it, usually Devil Angel's are born with this capability. That's why their aren't that many of us. You know the easers?" I nodded, knowing full well on those creatures. "They hunt us and they have a knack for blood." I shivered slightly, He held his now smooth hand over my face. Running his thumb over my cheek. Ray as always been muscular, but not large. Just well toned, not completely ripped. "I'm very happy you are not one. I'm so happy that they haven't found you out. You need to keep your species a secret as much as me." I leaned my four head against his, we use to always do this. It seemed to be our connection. We are very close. Wait does he have a job? Or as he been sulking in here the entire time? A devilish smirk appeared, he seemed to pale a bit but still kept his smile. "Hey Ray?" "Yeah?" "You could run as a teacher at my school. Plus it would be nice to see you." He chuckled. "Zera, you are very mischievous." I chuckled, he as no idea.

"Hey Zera, do you know where the deodorant is?" I looked behind me from my cooking. "No, I haven't." He scratched his head and started to look around. I was stirring some Hamburger helper, it was the cheeseburger kind. Along with some peas. I turned the burner on to low and set a lid on the pot. I whipped my hands on a rag, then went to look for Ray's axe deodorant.

I sighed out, we were flying at the moment and it was pretty fun. His brother Rin was here taking pictures of the amazing scenery. We were flying right over a freshwater stream. It seemed to shimmer in the light, I slightly tilted myself to let my wings touch the water. It's cool but nice at the same time. I heard the males chuckle. I scooped up some water with my wings and splashed Ray with it. He stopped mid flight shaking off his now drenched shirt. I stifled a laugh as clicks of a camera were heard. "Oh it's on!" He did the same with his wings only managing to get my arm as I dodged his blow. Soon we both were splashing each other with water. After we were both drenched and laughing we sit down on the bank to catch our breath. Rin is behind us still taking pictures of us and laughing his butt off. All of a sudden an idea struck me and a large cheshire grin spread across my face. Ray gives me a confused look before catching onto my plan, and his face breaks into a mischievous smirk. While Rin is laughing at us he had ended up bending and holding his stomach completely oblivious to the fact I was standing in front of him while Ray stands behind him. I clear my throat making him look up at me, he looks up at me confused as he notices my grin. Cautiously he straightens up and slowly takes a few steps backwards only to bump into his brothers chest. His eyes widen as he finally realizes what we were planning. "No, no, no!" He exclaims frantically trying to escape only to be stopped by his brother. In seconds he was sandwiched between us. He tried to get out of our grasp but failed miserably. "Zera, Ray!" He whined, we both chuckled and unleashed him. We spread out our wings and started to fly, Rin pouted and spreaded his feathered wings. The strange thing was that they were more of a midnight blue then a black like Ray's. I looked forwards to see oranges, yellows, light blue, purples, and pinks. They seem to decorate and paint the sky. I could hear faint clicks as we started to fly in the direction of Ray's house, which happened to be towards the now painted sky.

"Wow!" I turned from my painting to see Ray. I was just now doing the finishing touches, and I'm pretty sure I have paint in my hair. "Do you like it?" He looked aw struck, his eyes were wide and he had slightly parted lips. I did one last star, then got off the stool and looked towards the ceiling. The smooth surface made the wall look almost real. I smiled, then looked towards Ray. His mouth was slightly parted, he's seems happy. "You haven't even gotten rusty!?" I chuckled nervously and kicked some pieces of paper away. Hopping he didn't notice. I felt strong arms wrap around my waist, making a small blush appear. Why am I blushing!? He nuzzled the crook of my neck, making my face burn brighter. "It's amazing!" I smiled, why am I acting like this? His icy hands rested on my stomach, it felt nice. I rested my arms over his, I could of swore he blushed too. But maybe I was mistaken. We stayed like that for a while and then looked towards the ceiling. All colors of stars dusted the painting. A low sigh escaped our lips, this is nice.

Today is the day I go back to school, and Ray's gonna fly/walk me their. I smiled at him. He took my hand as we took off into the sky. Ray wore my back back, refusing to give it to me.

"Ray?" He hummed softly looking towards me. "Are you going to become a teacher?" He tapped his chin. "Depends if they want me?" He smiled a toothy grin, I wanted to hug him so badly right now. In seconds he swept me up into his arms. A low blush came across my face, as we hovered in the air. We buried our noses in each others necks. "Zera!?" My ears perked up as we both look to the way our school was. It was Askin, I smiled brightly. But when I tried to leave Ray's grasp, it tightened. I looked back towards him. His head lowered to my ears. 'He's and easer, don't trust him.' I didn't take my eyes off Askin, but slightly nodded. His grip eased out, as we both flew to him. "Hey Askin, how's it been?" He chuckled lightly. "Just flying around and such." I nodded, I decided to stay on edge. Not wanting anyone to get hurt, but also. . .afraid on what he could do. Soon we all flew to school.

"Not to be rude or anything but who are you?" Askin spoken while pointing a claw at Ray, he smiled lightly. "I'm Ray." Askin kinda glared at him. "What are you to Zera?" This made us both blush, we looked to each other. We were so sure on the answer weeks ago. But now, since I'm older I have no clue. "Ask Zera, it's her choice." I could feel Askin's eyes burn into the back of my head. I would of went on the other side of Ray, but I don't want a all out brawl to happen. Then I spotted the school. "Hey look were here!" Askin looked towards the school, I already knew Ray seen it. Me and Ray landed without a sound, but Askin landed with a loud thud. Dretoff's don't make sounds when they land. Askin parted from our group then we went to the office.

"Ms. Dragon? What are you doing here?" I stepped to the side. "My friend wanted to get a job here." She looked Ray up and down, a small flush came to the assistant Principal's face. Ray shifted obviously uncomfortable. She moved her long blonde hair with a slip of her fingers, her yellow eyes showed seduction. The only thing that seemed not be based off of yellow was her dark skin. You could see flashes of deadly white fangs underneath her painted lips. The ring on her finger spoke she wasn't supposed to be doing this, but her actions spoke other wise. I cleared my throat, annoyed. "Mrs. Tinta?" She snapped out of her gaze and gave a bored expression to me. "We need to speak with Mr. Tinta." She blushed in embarrassment but nodded. Ray followed behind me as we entered his office. Mrs. Tinta is of the japanese culture, so she bowed her head then quickly walked away. "What was that?" "She's originated from japan, so that's her way of saying sorry." "Oh." We stepped into Mr. Tinta's office. "Hello Ms. Dragon. Nice to see your doing well." I nodded as we both sat in the swivel chairs that were only a few feet away from his red wood desk. Everything on it seemed to be perfect and clean. I looked up to the male, he had light blue hair cole black eyes and a peachy skin color. He had a few wrinkles here in their despite his young age. "What brings you and your friend upon this fine day?" I smiled brightly, then motioned for Ray to introduce himself. Ray reached out a hand which Mr. Tinta gladly took. "I'm Ray Night, I came to apply for a job here." The older male smiled brightly. "Okay can you give me your age and why you wanted to join. Along with what subject you will like to teach?" Ray nodded and sat his hand to the side of his body. "I'm 1304, I came to join mostly because of Zera. She gave me the idea and since I have nothing better to do, I decided why not. It really doesn't matter what subject I teach, I'm certified in all." "Can you tell me your favorite subject?" Ray pondered for a moment. "I have to say art or math. I'm naturally good at math and art. But I prefer to do art anyday." I lightly chuckled, making them both look at me. "Sorry it's just kinda funny." "What is Ms. Dragon?" "Ray is the one who got me into painting and art all together. He always seemed to enjoy himself." Ray blushed while Mr Tinta smiled brightly. "Art it is then." Our eyes widened. "I got the job?" He nodded, a huge smile crept onto my lips. We got up and thanked him. "Ms. Dragon, please show Mr. Night to the old art room. Once the room is cleaned and of his liking then he will start. I will have you in his class as well. I nodded as we began our journey to WY101.

"This is it." I opened the old wooden door. The room was dark but large and spacious. Ray flicked on the lights. The walls were a dull white, it gave off a need for color. Along with some dull grey desk and squeaky iron chairs. Ray ran a finger across the main desk. He pressed his fingers together after looking at it. "Dusty." I nodded, then a small smile crept onto his face. "Want to help me paint these walls?" I sly smile crept onto my face. "Uh duh!" He chuckled as we went to the back to find paint supplies and such. "Paint whatever you think." I nodded and looked at the blank walls. I have a amazing idea!

I used my arm to wipe the sweat from my four head and looked up to the painted walls. I painted my group of friends onto the walls. Of course I asked them, they were shocked but agreed. I painted some art utensils and a seasons theme. That stretched one of the longer walls. I did a small starry sky to where Ray would be sitting. Oh while I was painting Ray was cleaning up everything and switching the chairs and desk to match the red wood desk. "Ray, take a picture!" He chuckled as he took a picture of me standing in front of the seasons. My hair was pulled back and my clothes decorated in colors of paint. I'm pretty sure that my face had splotches of colors as well. I ran up next to him, looking at the photo. His arm now draped over my shoulder. I was shorter than Ray by a couple feet, probably two. But that never stopped me from messing with his spiky black hair. Especially since it's really soft! I chuckled lightly at me in the photo. "Just like old times, huh?" I nodded. "Instead it's surprisingly better than the other ones!" This made him chuckle. "You're artwork is amazing, no matter what you paint!" "I still need to work on markers and some more crayons." He nodded hesitantly. "Yeah you do have a point their." I lightly hit his shoulder which he rubbed, making a face of misery and pain. I held my mouth to keep laughter from spilling out. "You got stronger, now you're punches actually hurt!" I scratched the back of my head while laughing nervously. "My bad, I've been training and still haven't got to fight anyone." He tilted his head as we both sat on the new chairs. "Why?" "They said I'm too fragile." I quoted my fingers around 'too fragile,' truefully it got on my nerves. He let out an annoyed sigh. "Then ditch you're group and go spar with someone else." "Can't." "Why?" "Not allowed." I annoyed grumble escaped his lips. . .well more like a growl then a grumble. "You can fight with me after school then." I could of swore my face was a lightbulb for how happy I was. I engulfed him into a hug. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" He chuckled and returned the hug. "No problem." His voice was husky yet smooth, I kinda liked it. We stayed like that for a couple minutes until a low knock was heard. We unravel ourselves as Ray made his way to the door. "You must be Mr. Night." Spoke a fenimum voice, why do I feel so angry right now? Ray nodded, letting in a tall slender female. Her silver hair was pulled up into a messy bun and her red eyes had crinkles, that came with old age. She had high cheekbones that seemed to dance with her smile lines, that only seemed to make her look prettier. Is she that human? I bowed in respect, a light musical chuckle escaped her throat. I raised my head, she honestly looked fragile to the touch. Her pale skin and rosy cheeks were the only thing indicating life. "You must be Ms. Dragon, I am glad on what you and Mr. Night did with the room." I could of swore her eyes sparkled at the now cleaned and organised room. "Thank you Ma'dam." She smiled lightly. "Please dear call me Rozita." I smiled back at her. "Thank you Rozita, my name is Zera." She nodded, then turned her attention back to Ray who was smiling at the both of us. I noticed one one of her long slender fingers she wore a ring. She must be married. "Okay Mr. Night, hears the school schedule on art and I will come back and visit to see your progress. I suggest you treat Zera here like a student during class, okay?" We both blushed but nodded. "Good, now good bye Zera and Mr. Night." She bowed slightly then left. What does tomorrow hold for us? "Ray, I'm going to go to my dorm. I'll see you tomorrow." He chuckled. "Okay Zera see yeah and remember address me as Mr. Night tomorrow." Mr. Night sounded so foreign. "Then you have to call me Ms. Dragon." We both chuckled at each other, I waved then left. Why does my heart feel like it's about to leap out of my chest? I grasped my loose blue tank that was splattered with paint. Why was I so. . .jealous? No I can't be in love, can I?
