I don't own Spiderman.
Mischief in the Making
Chapter 3
"Jeri, are you okay? What's wrong?" Jo began to purr as she wrapped her arms around her brother, trying to clam him.
"Jo!" Jeri clutched to his sister like a drowning man to a life-preserver. "I was scared when I woke up and you weren't here!"
"Shh, we don't want to wake TJ," Jo picked up her brother and gently carried him to her room. "Now, I'm going to show you a secret, but you have to promise to keep it a secret."
"Really? You're gonna show me something important?" Jeri bit his lip and waited.
"You also have to promise not to scream," Jo swallowed hard.
"I promise!"
"Okay…" Jo flipped on a light, and pulled off her cap.
"WOW!" Jeri gasped, "Sis, you're so cool! What are you?"
"I think I'm a kitsune…"
"Oh! But you are still human, right?" Jeri pouted.
"I'm not sure. I think it may be possible that I'm not a full kitsune and that I'm a hanyou."
"Half fox demon, that's still cool, sis!" Jeri immediately went to her ears and began to scratch.
"That feels nice," Jo purred as Jeri continued to play with her ears.
"If you're a kitsune, sis, doesn't that mean that you can disguise yourself?" Jeri frowned and stopped playing with Jo's ears.
"So it does! Jeri, you're a genius!"
"Of course I am," Jeri yawns. "What am I a genius for, again?"
"You won the All-Star Award," Jo grinned as she let her brother crawl under the covers, joining him after she checked on TJ; she left a note to tell him where Jeri was and not to worry about her.
