Chapter 2
We didn't seem to be in the real world anymore. For one thing, we were falling through the sky. Amon, Ayumi, and Endoh were all nearby, looking as confused as I was, and I could see Yumi a little ways away. I grabbed my glasses to prevent them from falling off. I saw Amon do the same. Yumi somehow sprouted wings and came and grabbed us so we wouldn't fall into the rocks. So did some other guy that she obviously knew. He had pink hair. We landed on some cliff, and the pink-haired person was no longer with us.
"What's going on?" I asked. Yumi, who had been looking over the cliff turned to face us.
"I guess I owe it to you guys to tell you the truth." She said quietly. We didn't say anything. So she told us.
She told us everything that had happened. Before she came to our school, why she came, where we were, why we were there, and about this guy named Nemuro. Me and Amon tried not to laugh as much as we could. When she finished, Amon was the first to speak.
"Awww, how cute!"
"Shut up!"
"But it's cute!"
She glared at him again. I noticed that she had turned red. We tried to figure out were we were, but this seemed to be a bit hard. And I thought my life was weird.
Then this truck drove up and called Yumi a 'Native Alter'. For a minute I thought he was gonna arrest us, but then some other person told him not to or whatever. Yumi didn't even know what a native alter was, and I didn't know either. He told us that he was letting us go this one time. Then, before he drove off, he hit us with these tentacles and we fell over the cliff.
Yumi didn't fall like we did, 'cause of her demon form, but the rest of us fell into this weird lake. When we got out, we were the same color as the lake.
"Well, we're in Alter Forest. No one's ever made it out alive, but we should be fine. C'mon, let's go." Said Ayumi. We all looked at her.
"How'd you—"
"Well, me and Yumi have something in common. Neither of us are from that—your world." She said. And she told us her story.
She lived with her parents in that area, and was an alter. One day, her dad came home and told her mom something. They told her to go ask the neighbor for some sugar, and when she went to the neighbor's house, the neighbor told her that her parents were right in sending her. She understood what was happening, and managed to see a man with red eyes taking her parents away. She chased the truck, trying to get back to them. They said that she was to go, so that she would be safe.
And that was when Ayumi vowed to make the person that took her parents away pay.
Geez, at this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if Amon and Endoh told us that they were different too. Of course, they didn't know about me, and I had no intention of telling them. I wasn't stupid; I knew that lots of people discriminated against my father for what he was. People were just as bad with me, just because he was my father. I knew; my parents and I experienced it when I was younger.
"You said that the guy that took your parents had red eyes, right? So did that guy we just saw had red eyes, too." Amon said.
Ayumi clenched her fists.
"NowI can pay HOLY back. . . "
We all walked in silence for a while. The forest got dark and quiet. I didn't really care, it reminded me of home. I used to walk around with my parents at night (never during the full moon), and since we lived on the edge of a forest, this made me feel at home. So when we heard that howl, I snapped.
Now, most kids can't tell the difference between a wolf, coyote, or dog howl. I can, mainly because my father is a werewolf.
We had been walking, and we heard a wolf howl. The others seemed scared, but, instinctively, I looked up. Through the trees, I could see the moon.
"Maru . . ."
"It's a full moon tonight . . ." I said, still looking up.
We heard the howl again. I'm not sure why, I knew it was impossible, but after 9 years of not knowing about my parents, whether or not my dad survived, where he was if he did, but I cracked.
"Dad?"
I ran in the direction of the wolf, the others I could faintly hear behind me. They obviously thought I was insane, but at that minute I didn't care.
I was looking for the wolf. I knew it wasn't an adult; it had to be a little one. I could hear my friends say how they "had to find the main body." I heard another howl, and realized that my friends thought that I was injured or something. And then I found it. A small wolf in the bushes. I picked it up and carried it to my friends.
"I found the main body."
