Chapter 2
Fuuko was standing in what looked like a battle field. There were mangled bodies everywhere. They were dead, all dead. The smell of rotten corpse was very strong that Fuuko had to breathe through her mouth. They looked like their long time ancestors from the time of Hokage, they were wearing ninja suits and using ancient weapons. But she noticed that no one was using a psychic device. "What happened here?" she walked around staining her shoes with blood spilled everywhere.
One thing she noticed is that the warriors either had a tattoo of a scorpion or a snake. The tattoo was engraved in their skin like some code. Strange. Maybe they were signs of heroism. "Where am I? What am I doing here?" Fuuko muttered to herself. But instead of the voice remaining silent and hushed, it was loud and clear and echoed around the field.
Suddenly, the clothes of the dead bodies began to change. "Wha?" Fuuko watched in awe as the clothes turned from primitive ninja like to a more sophisticated suit. They looked like the clothes of the present time! But they weren't wearing military clothes; they looked like the regular clothes that civilians wear. In fact, the fighters look like regular people.
But she was still in the same battle field and everyone was still dead. Fuuko couldn't help but be curious about that strange tattoo scarred on their bodies. "What are they?" Fuuko took a closer look, but something else caught her eyes. The woman fighter she was looking at had no tattoo of a snake or scorpion but instead had strange black stripes all over her body. It strikingly resembled stripes that can be found on snakes. And speaking of snakes, Fuuko moved a bit closer and noticed that the stripes looked rough. Very rough.
Fuuko gently touched her skin; it was smooth and creamy white like as if she was carved from ivory. She was very beautiful. She had an amazing figure and lovely curves; her hair was a lovely brown, smooth and shiny. 'I wonder how different my life would be if I was as gorgeous as her. But that's never gonna happen' Fuuko thought. Before she could marvel some more of her beauty, Fuuko touched her black stripes and felt a very familiar rough texture. "Scales?!"
True enough, the woman's black stripes were shockingly made of scales but her was skin was made of regular flesh. Fuuko observed some more and noticed that the stripes lasted until the woman's cheeks, but another thing caught her attention.
Fuuko's eyes grew large and round. The woman had FANGS!! Real fangs! 'Vampires!!!' Fuuko thought in horror. Unless this was some kind of freak show, what kinds of vampires have scale stripes?
Before Fuuko could come up with an answer, the scene immediately changed. The battle field dissolved into darkness, nothing could be seen except the dark. Suddenly, Fuuko could see someone or something coming towards her. There, she saw slithering on the ground was the snake that bit her! Its dark color nearly made it invisible in the dark if it wasn't for its creepy yellow eyes. "Oh no!!!" she panicked. Normally snakes wouldn't scare her, but after the experience it's hard not to be a bit afraid.
Fuuko turned around and ran as fast as she could she didn't care where she was going. She looked back and saw that the snake was gone, but when she looked ahead the snake was there! Fuuko stopped dead in her tracks. 'How could it go from there to here so quickly?' she suddenly felt more afraid of it.
The snake stared at her again with amusement. Without warning, it began to grow. Fuuko's eyes were now large with terror. Right in front of her eyes the snake grew and grew until it looked at least 200 ft high.
It seemed to enjoy the fact that Fuuko was afraid of it. Fuuko tried to run again but then the snake blocked her path with its long scaly body. ".......yoU.........CaNt..... eSsSsscaPe ..........yOU're .....FaTE....!!!!" a voice spoke. Fuuko could feel chills down her spine, it seemed like the snake was the one speaking. "......Fuuko....." it called. She can't seem to find the courage to talk; the words were stuck in her throat. "........Fuuko...." It called again.
Gathering all her courage, she slowly turned around to face it. She looked up and was now face to face with it, she could see her reflection clearly in his amber like eyes. All of a sudden, she felt some kind of invisible force hit her hard.
Extreme pain suddenly erupted from her body from her body. The pain was so intense that Fuuko got down on her knees. "Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!" Fuuko hadn't felt this much pain since the time she entered the Dark Tournament. But the sharpest pain of all was the one on her left arm. Fuuko looked at it through her watery eyes and saw the snake tattoo slowly and painfully forming in her flesh. "Aaaaaaauuuuuuuugghhhhh!!!!" Fuuko cried.
She looked at the snake one more time. "........Fuuko...." It hissed once more. She stared at it. "Wha-....aaahhhh .....what...d-do.....y-yo.....aaaugh....you.....w-want from........m-me?!" Fuuko asked as she summoned her last bit of strength to say these words as clearly as possible. But it didn't answer her, it merely kept watching her in pain with its cold yellow eyes. That was the last thing Fuuko saw before she opened her eyes and exited the dream world.
Fuuko found herself lying in her bed in her room. She was sweating constantly and was gasping for air, 'It's just a nightmare, it's not real......' Fuuko said to herself, everything was just fake, except for her aching body. There was pain literally every inch of her body, as if she had been working out for two weeks none stop. 'What happened anyway?' Fuuko tried to recall what happened before she had the horrible dream. At first all she could recall was being a tomboy by everyone, but then she finally remembered about the snake bite and how she passed out. But how did she get here in her house?
Perhaps one of her friends came after her and found her on the ground and brought her here. 'Yeah, that's it' Fuuko confirmed as she brushed long strands of her hair away from her face. She felt so tired, maybe it's an effect after being bitten by a snake.
Fuuko looked at her alarm clock, it was 9:38 am, it's pretty late for someone like her to wake up, she'd normally get up at 8 o' clock or so. She then looked at her phone, the light was blinking which means she had a message. She brushed out a few more strand of her hair away from her eyes before slowly reaching to press the message button. But every move resulted to pain making it more difficult to reach.
Finally after what seemed like hours, Fuuko pressed the play button and quickly laid back on her bed. The female phone voice began to speak; "You have 47 new messages" Fuuko immediately bolted up despite her aching body. That was a lot more than she used to receive everyday. Unless the whole class knows about the snake bite thing, which she hoped didn't happen, and decided to call and see if she was okay. The first message was from Yanagi, "Fuuko-san, just wanted to know why you didn't come to Koganei's house today. Are you sick? Fuuko if you're still upset I can help you and we can do make-over together! Please reply soon"
Fuuko remembered being on Yanagi's house on Friday and remembered that they were meeting on at Koganei's house on Sunday. 'Could I have been sleeping for two days?' Fuuko thought to herself.
There was a beep and it was from Yanagi again; "Fuuko, just calling to ask why you didn't go to school today. Please reply soon. I'm really worried about you" Yanagi said. 'Was I sleeping for three days?' Fuuko thought again. 'Does it take this long to recover from a snake bite?' Fuuko brushed another strand of hair away from her face.
There was another beep and this time it was from Recca; "Fuuko!! Where the hell are you?! You haven't showed up in school for three days now and Mr. Natako isn't happy!!" 'I'VE BEEN SLEEPING FOR 6 FRIKIN DAYS!?!' Fuuko's mind was about to explode. She brushed away more strands of hair from her face, "Stupid hair! I'm gonna cut it off la-"Fuuko suddenly realized something. "Wait a minute, my hair never bothered me this much before...." Fuuko used to have shoulder length hair when she was in elementary school, but she cut it off in an almost boy-cut style because it annoyed her a lot. Since then it never went to her face that much.
She suddenly went cold, Fuuko gently touched her hair. Slowly her hand traveled down, Fuuko would expect it to last until her chin at the most, but it didn't. It went on and on and on until it reached her hips!
Fuuko suddenly felt panic build up in her chest again. She took a hand full of her hair and saw that it was indeed a hundred times longer than usual. "AAAAIIIIIIEEEEEEEKKKK!!!!" Fuuko shouted loud enough for the whole building to hear. Sure enough, her neighbor upstairs banged the floor, ordering her to keep it down. But Fuuko merely ignored her, she quickly dashed to the bathroom ignoring the pain exploding in her body.
She looked at the mirror but couldn't believe her eyes. Her hair had suddenly grown long at a striking short time. But that's when something else came up. How long did she sleep? Long enough for hair to grow like this? But, that wasn't all. Her tanned skin had turned smooth and flawless as if she had gone for dermatologic treatments everyday. And not to mention how much thinner she looks; now it really looked like she worked out for two weeks none stop.
Fuuko stood on the weighing scale and was shocked to see that she had gone from 120 pounds to 95 pounds! Fuuko felt like she was about to faint. 'This is another dream, Fuuko! Wake up!' She commanded herself. She closed her eyes and tried to focus 'waking up'. "Just a dream. Just a dream. Just a dream.........."
"And I thought you wanted to be pretty!" a female voice suddenly spoke. "Huh?" Fuuko opened her eyes and was surprised to see that instead of seeing her own reflection, there was another woman in the mirror standing before her. The woman was wearing a long, tight black dress that highlighted her curves, her long shiny jet black hair was as dark as her dress and her skin was smooth, flawless and as white or even whiter than snow. Her lips had a shiny red color as if she was wearing an expensive lipstick, her eyes were a ghastly shade of yellow. There was also a strange black triangular birthmark on her forehead facing down, but all in all, the woman was extremely beautiful.
She had a great figure, perfect hair and skin, and even though she looked slightly scary she was still filled with beauty. Every inch of her was screaming with perfection, this is the kind of beauty that can kill.
"Who are you?!" Fuuko asked as she got into her fighting position. The woman let out a small laugh, "Don't be afraid I won't hurt you." She said in a very feminine voice. "Why should I trust you?" Fuuko argued, "Because if you want to know what's going on you better trust me" she answered back. At this relaxed a bit but still took caution. "My name is Alassondra. And I was the snake that bit you, Fuuko" she said.
"YOU?! You were the snake that bit me?!" Fuuko repeated with a slight touch of outrage. "Uh-hmmm." Alassondra didn't seem to show the slightest fear of Fuuko despite the menacing look she was showing right now.
"Okay, that does it! I'm leaving!" Fuuko was about to turn around storm out of her bathroom when another strong invisible force hit her. "What the?" Fuuko suddenly couldn't move. It was like she had lost control of her entire body, she could not even move one finger.
"Now, if you just let me finish" Alassondra spoke. 'As if I have a choice' Fuuko thought to herself' Fuuko said to herself. "You will have choices later" Alassondra suddenly announced. Fuuko looked surprised, 'Whoa, how did she know what I was thinking?' Fuuko thought. "As I was saying, my name is Alassondra. I am the queen and ruler of the tribe Szerpents" (A/N: I did that on purpose. I just styled up the word ^-^)
"Tribe what?" Fuuko asked slightly confused over the name. "Szerpents. A tribe that existed six thousand years ago" she explained patiently. "Okaaay, but what's that got to do with me?" Fuuko asked. "I was hoping you would come and join us. That's why I bit you" she clarified. "Well if you wanted me to join you, you could have just asked" Fuuko contradicted, she couldn't see the fact why someone would turn into a snake, bite somebody and give them the terror of a lifetime.
Alassondra laughed again. "Well to become one of us you have to go a few changes as you have noticed" she pointed out. "So let me get this straight, you want me join your tribe. And you bit me because I had to under go some changes" Fuuko could now move again.
"You got it. The first hard part is already over which is the transformation. It takes a while to completely change and it's a bit painful. That's why I had to put you to sleep and asked one of my assistants to bring you here" Alassondra explained some more.
"How long have I been sleeping by the way?" Fuuko took the opportunity to find out. "Sixteen days" Alassondra stated. "Okay." Fuuko said, her face masked with indifference. Suddenly, two snakes appeared from behind Alassondra. They slithered up her arm and traveled up her shoulders, but Alassondra made no sign of fear or panic.
"Hello" She cooed as she took one in her hand and began to cuddle it while the other one gently coiled around her neck. "Fuuko, I want you to meet my little babies" Alassondra introduced like a mother who was introducing her own cute little children to visitors for the first time. "Yeah. Hi!" Fuuko half heartedly greeted.
'She must be some snake lover' Fuuko thought. "I just simply love snakes" Alassondra informed as if she had just read Fuuko's thoughts. 'Can she read minds?' Fuuko wondered. "So are you going to join us?" She asked still cuddling her snakes.
"Ummmm..." Fuuko wasn't sure she could decide right away. "You don't have to give me you answer now. I'll wait until the end of the day" Alassondra said before Fuuko could say something. 'Okay, that is just plain freaky' Fuuko thought. "Well I'll be seeing you later then Fuuko. Please think of my request carefully. Bye!" and with that Alassondra disappeared and once again Fuuko's new reflection stood before her.
She couldn't believe what just happened. This was just plenty of pressure. But for a moment Fuuko halted all thoughts for a while so she could get a better look at her self. Her once short and messy hair was now long smooth and shiny like a dark brown mirror. All her scars have completely vanished and her skin was now smooth and perfect. She had a flatter stomach, smaller thighs and more curves than she use to have. Her eyes had a more radiant glow and her lips were almost irresistible. No longer will she be called Fuuko tomboy. She was now what every girl would ever die to become: The perfect girl. Well, maybe just almost perfect.
"Is this the price for being a member of this Szerpents tribe?" Fuuko didn't know if this was a dream come true or another nightmare. "If I wanna join this tribe I better know more about it first. But where or who should I find answers?" Fuuko thought and thought until the first name popped into her head. "Kagerou! She has to know something about this Alassondra and her tribe." At once Fuuko got ready to leave.

She was now what every girl would ever die to become: The perfect girl. Well, maybe just almost perfect.
"Is this the price for being a member of this Szerpents tribe?" Fuuko didn't know if this was a dream come true or another nightmare. "If I wanna join this tribe I better know more about it first. But where or who should I find answers?" Fuuko thought and thought until the first name popped into her head. "Kagerou! She has to know something about this Alassondra and her tribe." At once Fuuko got ready to leave.
