A cool, Autumn breeze hit the shark leader's face. it had even hit the little one next to him, gripping his hand tightly. "Ready for your first day?" He asked, glancing down at his nervous daughter. "Yeah..." she mumbled, tears started to form in her eyes. Ripster looked down and smiled, kneeling in front of her. "Hey, don't cry. It's always the toughest on the first day, but you'll make it." he said cheerfully. Kita looked up at her father, still teary-eyed. "Okay...but what if no one likes me?" She asked, Ripster smiled more and patted her head. "That won't happen, I know you'll make lots of friends and kick butt. It's a promise~" he said, Kita nodded and looked behind her father. The bus came to a quick, ear aching stop. "Good luck, Angel. And remember, a Bolton never gives up." He stated, she nodded again and stepped onto the steep steps of the bus. Kita glanced back to her father beofre the door closed on her. Ripster waved and backed away from the bus, smiling proudly. Kita looked to all the seats, most of them full of kids yelling and shouting, throwing pencils and paper planes. They all stopped and looked at Kita. Glancing around she slowly walked down the isle and to the back of the bus. Once the bus started moving, she knew she would have a bad day. She was always with her uncles and parents, having fun, laughing, eating meals. But this is the first she's going to have a whole day away from them.
Kids romaing around, playing rough, and running. That's all she saw, but she had wished to see her uncles there in the crowd of kids. Kita stood up after all the kids rushed out and slowly walked off the bus. She glanced around seeing kids all around, most of them looking at her with interest. She quickly pulled her sweater over her head and ran to the corner of the school. After pulling off her sweater, she slumped down against the school wall, sighing deeply. Tears started to form in her eyes again; she wanted to be with her family. Steps were heard to her right, a human boy was looking down at her smiling. "Hi!" he said
"Hi..." she mumbled
"You look weird"
"What?" shocked, her eyes widened as anger slowly built in her.
"I like you~" he stated
"Like me?" she asked
"Of course, afterall; I'm weird too!" He said, he then snapped his fingers. His form no longer a human, but a young anthromorphic alligator. Her eyes widened more, and her mouth dropping. The boy smiled and closed her mouth. "You'll catch flies~" he said jokingly. Kita wiped her tears and looked to the boy again. "You have magic?" she asked, he nodded. "Yep! Pretty cool huh?" he asked, Kita nodded and smiled a bit. "I have magic too." she said, the boy's face lit up. "Awesome! can I see?" he asked, Kita smiled brightly and waved her hand. She made their backpacks levatate in mid-air. The boy smiled and waved his hand, joining in the magic with her, making the pencils twirl around and dance. "I'm Axel." he said, Kita smiled brightly. "I'm Kita." She said.
A few hours after Kita's encounter with Axel, it was finally recess for everyone. Kita rushed outside and glanced around, looking for her new friend. She then felt hands gently covering her eyes. "Guess who~?" The voice asked, Kita giggled and pulled the hands off. "You're funny~" she said, Axel blushed and rubbed the back of his head. "Thanks, so, wanna eat with me?" he asked, Kita smiled big. Axel kneeled down and pulled out his lunchbox, Kita followed and got out her lunchbox. Axel had pulled out sushi, with a bottle of water. Kita pulled out Corn muffins with a sandwich and a juice box. Kita noticed Axel's lunch and raised an eyebrow. "What's that?" she asked
"It's sushi."
"What's sushi?"
"Open your mouth, I'll give you one of mine." He said. Kita was a bit nervous but she opened her mouth nonetheless. Axel slipped in a piece of sushi into her mouth and and closed it. Kita chewed and examined the flavor. It was a bit bland, but a spice kicked in and threw her back a bit. "Sorry! W-was it too much?" He asked, she shook her head and swallowed. "That was yummy~" She said. She had then let out a small burp. The two giggled and ate their lunches.
"Hey Kita, are you doing anything after school?" Axel asked, Kita looked to Axel and shook her head. "Not really, why?" She asked. Axel smiled brightly. "Do you wanna hang out with me later? We can meet at the park." He said, Kita nodded and looked to the coming bus before looking at him again. "Sure!" She shouted, Axel grinned and patted her head. "See ya later then~" He said before running off and away from her. Kita smiled and walked to the bus.
Kita had rushed off the bus and into the lair, her home. She rushed passed her uncles and parents and into her room. "Well 'Hello' to you too." Said Streex jokingly, Ripster chuckled and looked to where Kita ran. "I wonder how to went." He said to himself, Billy held his shoulder and kissed his cheek. "I'll go ask." She said, she then walked passed Ripster and the sharks. Kita swung open her bedroom door and rushed out again. "Sorry Mommy! Sorry Daddy! Sorry Uncles! Gotta go!" She shouted, rushing out of the lair. The sharks stood there, confused. Billy shook it off and smiled. "Looks like she had a good day to me~" She said.
Kita ran as fast as she could passed citizens and animal walkers. She then skidded to a stop as she saw the park dead ahead of her, she checked both ways and ran to the park. Her favorite place to play there was the swings. She remembers her mother always telling her that her mother and her father went there on one of their dates. She chose the swing that her parents sat on and waited. It wasn't long after she sat that Axel ran next to her and poked her cheek. "Were you waiting long?" He asked, Kita shook her head and smiled. "I just got here...can you push me?" She asked, Axel nodded and walked behind her, pulling on the chains of the swings, letting go, and gently pushing her. Kita giggled, the wind flowed through her light brunette hair.
The two knew it was a start of a great friendship.
