Japanese Words


I was peacefully dreaming, the visions always knock me out, safe and warm in my king sized bed. I could hear Hazumi's steady breathing, as she was curled at the foot of my bed on the floor.

My room is fairly big with high ceilings because of Hazumi, one wall was noting but glass, facing east where the suns rays were shining on my light green curtains.

Like most of my room, the walls were painted a light green color with boarders being white with gold trim.

Half my room had a fuzzy green carping and the rest was hard wood.

I had night stands with blue green lamps and white shade on them, were on either sides of the vanity bed; the curtains of the bed were a see threw light green that was tied back to the posts, which were blue green.

The sheets around me were a green confuter with golden dragon designed on it, as a blue Egyptian cotton sheet underneath had outlines in sliver. My pillows were soft and fluffy covered in silk pillow cases.

I have one white double doors, leading out into the hall way and two white single doors. One leading to my limestone bathroom with a simple toilet, two sinks, a big Jacuzzi and frosted glass shower. The other one lead to my walking in closet filled with clothes, shoes, hats, coats, and umbrellas.

I slowly sat up in my bed, changed into a light blue sleeping gown.

I wondered briefly about who changed me, but brushed it off as I pulled the covers from my legs.

Moving them to touch the fluffy carpeting, the fluff tickling my feet.

I yawned as I blinked to get the sleep sand out of my eyes.

With my eyes closed I walked to my bathroom and to take a short shower.

Turing the crystal handle for hot in the shower, I waited till it got steamy.

Turing to the giant mirror above the two white marble sinks, the floors tiled with a mix of blue and green as a large blue oval bath rug laid on the floor in the middle of the room.

Looking at my reflection, I saw that my skin was pail, like I was sick, and that I was covered with dried sweat that felt crusty on my skin every time I moved my arms of legs.

Steam started to rise from the hot shower, so I turned on the cold to make it warm for me to take a relaxing thinking shower.

When I use the bath tub, it's only to relax after either running or marshal arts to sooth my muscles. In the hot springs is just to chat with family and have a good time.

A shower, to me, is when I do my best thinking.

Striping off my nightgown, bra, and underwear I stepped under the pouring warm water, warming up my cold skin.

I stood under the cascade of warm water, thinking to my self.

'How long till that vision comes true?'

My short black hair sticking to my face, slick with water, tilting my head down, I let the warm water wash away the dried sweat on my back and neck.

'Should I tell Grandpa and Suzaku-sama?'

I shook my head, sending droplets every where.

I grabbed my plum scented 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner, pouring the goo into my hand before lathering it in my hair.

'I don't know.'

I closed my eyes, letting the water rinse out the suds in my hair.

'I've always told dad or one of the other heads about when I have a vision.'

I opened my eyes and took hold of a luefa and my plum body wash. Pouring the body wash on to the luefa before scrubbing my arms and neck.

'it has nothing to do with the heads of the clans.'

I moved to scrubbing my torso.

'But...'

I narrowed my eyes as I scrubbed my legs.

'It is some thing that affects the clans and Suzaku-sama.'

I had to sigh.

Putting up the luefa, I grabbed the brush and poured the body wash on it to clean my back.

'I just don't know how to contact Grandpa or Suzaku-sama.'

I was thinking as the scrubbing of the brush felt good on my sweat covered back, cleaning away the grime.

Shutting off the shower once I was all clean.

I grabbed a light blue towel, and wrapped it around me. I heard Hazumi hiss and growled at something in my room but I could faintly hear my phone ringing.

Hazumi was not a fan of technology or science.

In only a towel I walked into my room with Hazumi glaring at my ringing room phone on my night stand.

I waked over to it and hushed Hazumi before picking it up.

"Hello?"

-Ryuujin-san?-

It was Honda-san.

"Oh! Good morning, Honda-san."

-G-go-good morning?-

She strutted over the phone; I wondered why she was until I looked at my clock.

IT WAS 11:58!!!

"Crap!"

I cursed out loud.

I never slept in this late after a vision.

-AH! I-i-I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to disturb you! I thought that you would be a wake by now!-

I was shocked and shook my head. Sitting down on my bed, still in my towel.

"No. It wasn't you Honda-san. I just slept in a little later then I usually do."

I told her and Hazumi placed her head carefully on the bed beside me.

-O-oh!-

"What is it that you called for Honda-san?"

I asked her but I could hear some male voices in the background.

-Um? Could you come over and tutor me and my friends?-

She asked a little uncertain as I could hear the male voices in the back ground.

"Sure. How many?"

-4 of my friends would like your help Ryuujin-san.-

"Sure. That's ok. When should I come over?"

I asked her as I got up from my bed to go to my walk in closet.

It had a dark blue carpet, shelves and racks for things, some of my clothes were on the racks on either side or in the dowers opposite the door. It looked almost like a store with the plush blue green bench right in the middle of the closet.

-Ah? How soon can you get here?-

Looking threw my draws for clean underwear and a bra, pulling out a strapless dark blue bra and underwear. I set the phone down and pressed for speaker.

"In about an hour, I need to do something before I can go any where first. So, around 3:30. That ok?"

I asked as I slipped on the under wear and trying to clip the bra in the back before noticing the clasp was in the front. I'm not a morning person; well I don't do well when I wake up from a vision.

-Yes! Um? Thank you for what you are doing, Ryuujin-san.-

"Don't worry. English is my best and favorite subject. I'll be happy to help."

I said while looking threw my draws for a shirt and pants.

-I will be sure to introduce you to my friends. Good bye.-

"Bye."

I reached over and hung up the phone as I looked in for a shirt and found a green tank top, I looked for pants and found some faded skinny jeans with holes in the knees, that had happened when I cleaned Hazumi's scales, she scrums' a lot.

Slipping them on, I sat in front of the mirror on top of the dresser and quickly brushed my hair, then I slipped on a pair of white socks and grabbed a pair of white sneakers before walking into my room to put back my phone.

Hazumi watched me and got up once I got to the double doors. That's why we have high ceilings, so the dragons of other clan members could follow their master/mistress.

Some think of their dragons as pets, others think of them as an extension of themselves or of the family. The last two being true for every one; the Dragons are the guardians of our soul, so when we die the dragons protect our soul. They are loyal to one person and one only out of their long lives; few clan members have seahorses as their guardians but they also become guardians of a soul.

I entered my living room; yes I have a living room. My living space is more like a suite then just one room. The walls were a light blue here and had hard wood floors.

I had a blue couch, a white fake fur carpet with a glass coffee table. A few massive book selves took up one wall, filled with books, trinkets, awards, and a few weapons. Next to that was a glass wall with sliding doors leading to a large baloney. Opposite the couch was 60' inch plasma screen TV incased by shelves of games, game systems, DVDs, and CD's.

A kitchen done in white, light blue marble and shiny sliver chrome. Fully stocked with refrigerator/freezer, sink, stove and island in the center. I usually eat with my family and only eat alone when I'm sick or just want to be to my self. Of course Hazumi is usually with me so I usually count her as myself.

I walked out of my door and went to the dinning room were I found my father eating a chocolate cake.

I sat down to his right, were the heir is to sit, and a servant placed a plate full of green eggs and ham in front of me.

...

I'm not joking this time. The eggs were sunny side up so the cooked yolk was green and the white was a light green and so was the ham with a dark green color.

It's a special kind of meat that we of Ryuujin blood and decent eat.

We really can't, well I can't, stomach human food. The adults can to some degree but human food makes us sick most of the time.

Hazumi was behind me, also being served 6 pounds of green meat as well and dug in like she was starving. She must have not eaten since breakfast yesterday.

"Azu-chan, we are a having a dinner tonight with you're the other clan heads and heirs, as well as your grand parents."

My father told me as he polished off the cake, setting it aside with 4 other empty cake dishes.

"When? I'm going over to a girl's house to tutor her in English."

I asked, telling him what I was doing. There was no use lying to him, his dragon, Akatsuki, had a gift for sensing lies and finding out the truth.

Not to mention he was right behind my father. With red scales and a black mane down to his tail with crimson red eyes watching me. He was twice as big as Hazumi and was less friendly to anyone out side the clan. I'll save that explanation for another time.

"Written or spoken?"

My father asked me as he was given yet another cake. Ryuujins eat a lot and have very fast metabolisms.

I cringed remembering Honda-san's work. Eating my food at a speed most other humans would consider rude.

"Most likely written."

He smirked at my face, letting out a low chuckle.

I was served a glass of spring water and gulped it down. Hazumi finished with her meal and eyed the rest of mine witch was about a quarter of what I had before.

"Hm. That bad?"

"Yes."

I ate another bite before shifting it to my side so Hazumi could eat the rest, cleaning the plate with her tongue.

My father noticed this and raised an eye brow, as I sat up without eating a second helping.

"Azu-chan is some thing wrong? You usually have 5ths before letting a Hazumi clean your plate."

He asked, I could feel his and Akatsuki's eyes on me. Akatsuki growled low in his thought; I was like his own child so he is very protective of me.

"Ah... I just had a vision with Hazumi... about a death."

I told him.

It wasn't a lie, so Akatsuki wouldn't pick up on it. I just didn't tell him who it was who died.

He frowned and nodded his head in understanding.

I got up and left with Hazumi flowing me. Seeing Akatsuki's eyes narrowed in suspicion as I left to play with Hazumi.


YYA4: Wow! That was a long chapter.

YYA4: 'Evil smile' I'm going to make you into a good boy.

Ryuk: 'gulps' I should have stayed with Raito.
