3RD PERSON
"'Hi there avi!" Ahri says as the walks into the room.
"Hello ahri!" avi replies "I think my wings are starting to grow!!!" Avi feels her shoulder blades
"Im glad! i will see if i can help you for your first flight when the time comes." Ahri smiles in a caring way.
"Yaaaay! thank you ahri!" Avi jumps onto ahri's back and sits on her head "Vroooommm, vrooooommm! im flying ahri im flying!"
Ahri runs, and holds avi in place with one of her many tails while avi giggles ecstatically
"Thank you ahri! that was so fun!"
Avi hugs ahri
"Your welcome little bird." she replies and hugs avi with all nine of her tails involved. avi loved it when ahri hugged her, it made her feel safe and warm
Colli walks into the room, attracted by the noise.
"Whats going on in here guys?" she inquires
"Ahri let me fly colli! it was so fun!!" Avi replies while giggling.
"That is great avi! i cant wait to see your wings." Colli beamed and ruffled avi's hair
"Thank you colli! i think im going to go play with ella now, okay?" Avi skipped off to play with ella
"Ahri?" Colli asked "Could you teach me a few things with magic please? you seem to be great at it yourself!"
Ahri looked at colli and said "What do you need help with colli?"
"Well, i love to study magic but i cant seem to cast it very well.." Colli looked sad
Ahri thought for a moment and replied "Do you feel that warmth inside of your body? its strongest in your heart, but it flows through your whole body. concentrate really hard until you think you can feel it"
Colli closed her eyes and her brows furrowed as she tried to feel the energy. suddenly her face lit up and she said "I can feel it ahri, what is that?" she asked
"That is your mana colli, the source of all magic. concentrate harder, try to channel the energy" Colli's brows creased in more concentration after a few seconds her face stopped all signs of pressure. it suddenly looked effortless, and an aura of magic flowed around her. "Whooaoh! ahri! im doing MAGIC! Holy. cow." Ahri smiled
"You seem to have gotten a grip on your mana, advanced mages always have this aura"
Colli looked suprised "Really? this doesnt seem that hard..." Ahri smiled wider "It means you have great talent colli, i guess it is my job to refine that talent! you shall be my student, i will teach you magic." Ahri looked triumphant.
"Wow!! Really ahri?!? you will do that for me? THANK. YOU!" Colli ran over and hugged ahri. "You sould go rest alittle, and practice your aura a bit more. the more you practice, the more effortless it becomes. you are advancing fast, you sould be able to keep the aura nonstop soon" Colli beamed with happiness, and said "See you later ahri!!" and skipped away happily, not unlike the way avi did. Ahri sighed contently and went out to go get some liver to eat with a smile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AVI'S POV
The blue in the sky fades to orange a pink.
"Ahri I'm going outside!" I shout
"Okay! Dont go too far" She shouts back.
I open up the door and I sit on the small hill.
"When will my wings grow?" I mutter to myself. The last ray of sunshine disappears and the sky grows purple. I get up and brush the snow off me. I open up the door and come to the table for dinner.
"What are we having for dinner?" Colli asks.
"Pork and water" Ahri says while cooking the pork. She puts the food in front of us and we begin to eat. I mess around with the food a little then eat. I yawn and throw away the leftover food. I plop down on the couch to watch TV for a few minutes before I go to bed. I fall asleep on the couch snoring softly. Ahri brings me to my room and tucks me in. She switches off the TV and heads to her room. I wake up, and notice it is still dark. I tiptoe outside of my room and walk downstairs. I look at the clock to find out its 10:00 PM. I tiptoe back into my room and try to sleep. I couldn't fall asleep so I looked at the books I had in my room.
"I have read ALL of these" I thought. I sneak into Ella and Colli's room and look at their books. I grab one that has to do with magic.I read until I get drowsy so I put the book back. I fall asleep once more. I wake up. It's STILL dark. I peek at the clock, it's 11:53 Pm. I Try and try to fall asleep but I just couldn't. In fact I wasn't tired at all. I walked into Ahri's room to tell her I couldnt sleep. I walk up to her bed and whisper "Ahri! Ahri!!"
I nudge and poke her. It's like she can't feel me at all! I try to wake up anyone in the house, no luck.
I think for a moment.
"Am I a ghost? Did I die in my sleep?" I try falling down the stairs. I DO get hurt.
"Not a ghost." I say.
Another thought pops into my head.
"DId time stop and IM the only one who is able to stop it?" I look at The clock again. Nope. It still moves. I look down sadly. Then I notice something. I'm somewhat transparent.
"What?!" I think. I walk into my room again. Then I see me, but not transparent. I try to find a boom that might help, but for some reason I can't pick it up. It's not heavy. I just... Can't pick it up. I can't interact with anything. I go to the front door. Yep. I can't interact with anything. I look through the window. I see a figure.
I begin to panic.
"A stranger is coming to our house and I cants stop it!" Then the figure comes closer. I blink in surprise. It's another of my kind AND it's somewhat transparent like me!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
COLI'S POV
I wake up in the morning, right at the crack of dawn. Pink is leaking into the sky and clouds so I rush towards the door. No one would see me anyway. as I sneak past Avi's room, I hear a moan. It sounded low. Quiet. Pained. Inching open the door, I tiptoe in with my ears erect and alert. My gold eyes search out Avi, laying soundless in her bed. Creepin forward to her, she has purple bruises on her face and arms. Gasping, I grab some makeshift bandages, pages out of a book. I hope they aren't important. Avi is mumbling incomprehensibly. trying to make sense of what is going on, I say, "It'll be alright Avi. Pretend this is an adventure! I'll be back soon." After about half an hour I'm back with some slightly stale bread to feed Avi. she has a big scar running down her shoulder blade. accidently dropping the bread, I fumble with it half scared to death. blood sinks into the nearby feathers and skin. Taking off pages from the bruises, I pile them onto the wound. "I wish Ahri was here, she knows EVERYTHING about healing!" Sighing, I get clean bread while munching on the stale bread. I then realize several minutes later that I can wake Ahri up. Dashing to her room, I prod her in the eyes and say, "AHRIIIII! Avi needs medicel attenshun!" Ahri's eyes open wide, but are glazed with drowsiness. she stands up and falters, but I can tell she thinks Avi just "bruised a knee." Looking at her worriedly I say, "It's serious." Of course, like all other people- or creatures- she thinks I am exaggerating about it being serious. Tugging on her arm, I pull her to Avi's dark room. My skin is pale and I'm sweating hard. Ahri senses this and walks without the tug on her arm. "is there blood, hon?" I nod slowly, scared. "Now Colli, how did it happen? It's 4:00 in the morning." Shaking my head, I whisper, "It appeared out of nowhere. she moaned and mumbled and... I'm so worried!" Ahri opens the door, and strides into the darkness towards the candle by Avi's bed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AVI'S POV
The strange figure walks closer. I realize we left a window open and he squeezes through. I realize I'm shivering, then I fluff up my feathers to try and show I'm not scared.
"You must be Avi" He assumes. His voice was strong and loud. He had a bold appearance. His feathers were shades of browns and grays. His ambers eyes seemed as if he could read my thoughts. I nod.
"An-And who are YOU?" I say trying not to sound scared.
"I am Talon. As you can see, I am one like you." He says. He seems to read my mind.
"You are in The Spirit Land"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AHRI'S POV
I see how serious her wounds are and i call my orb to my side. when it gets here, i walk over to avi and watch her looking intent at the window and talking to herself.
"Avi? are you alright?" what a stupid question. its not like she has serious wounds all over her body! i begin the process to heal avi's wounds. my orb glows a green color, not like the color when i am stealing souls, a softer, more reassuring color. her wounds begin to close when she gets a shocked expression on her face, wherever her mind was, it was not here. i wondered what she could be doing in her own little world... I leave her in her bed when the wounds finish healing and start talking with colli. "How do you think it happened?" i asked
"I dont know, i just heard a low moan while i was passing her room and went to check on her" Colli replied.
"Very strange indeed, we may have to ask her when she is out of that trance" i said
"Ahri? would yo mind giving me some more magic lessons? it might help calm me down."
"It might calm me down too, i think ill do it." while we were downstairs, i think we woke somebody up because we heard footsteps coming down.
"I wonder who that could be..." Colli said.
"I dont know, it sounds like two pairs of feet, one of them are male, one female" i replied, alert.
"How can you tell?" Colli asked, astonished at my amazing hearing
"Its quite easy to distinguish if you think about it, male footsteps are more clunky and loud. while females are more cautious or considerate." i said back. when they got here we saw it was Emma and a very attractive boy. me and colli's stances changed at the same time, to more flirtatious. foxes are known for their flirtatiousness. we exchanged looks and our fox minds told us we were both thinking the same thing. i subtly jerked me head twords him.
"Ahri, Colli, we have a new guest in the house. This is Mason" she gestured to the boy
"Its nice to meet you" i said in a seductive voice as i stepped twords them "I hope we can get to know each-other better" and i gave an indicative smile. Colli smiled at Mason and winked, in a more subtle but noticeable way. this house has never been so fun
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AVI'S POV
Talon continued to tell me about the Spirit Land.
"So is it only us two?" I wonder.
"No. there are some others." He replies.
"Why have you come to me though? I'm sure you didn't come here to chat." I ask.
"This "family" of yours... You cannot trust them" He begins
"Wha-?" I begin to say when we interrupts.
"They are using, well are going to use you. The don't really care for you." He continues to tell lies. Im not sure if I should believe him or not.
"You have two choices. You stay with your so called family, or you can join my side, and stop them. Your choice" He tells me. I blink.
What? Should I believe him? Talon, someone I JUST met. In a strange land like this! I won't believe him.
"I am staying with my family! They were always at my side!" I shout at him. "I don't believe you!"
"Wrong choice" He growls. He lunges forward and slashes my shoulder. Everything goes black for about 4 seconds. Then I open my eyes And blink twice.
Ahri notices the mumbles have stopped.
"She's back!" She shouts.
Back? I wonder.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
STILL AVI'S POV
At first everything was blurry. But then my vision returned to normal. Colli rushes forward.
"Avi! Where we're you?! we were so worried! Are you sick? What Happened?" She asks. She sure was curious.
"Colli don't overwhelm her. I think she has been through enough for one day." Ahri says while gesturing towards my wounds.
Realizing how much I hurt I grab my arm. It really hurt.
"I think she should rest" Colli says.
"No.. I want to stay up. WH-what have I missed?" I say while wincing in pain.
"You missed nothing but us panicking." Colli replies. I could see the others upstairs glancing at me.
...
...
It seems as if there was nothing to talk about. the only thing we could talk about is what happened.
"How about you read one of your books. and if you need anything call me!" She was about to walk off until I called out
"But Ahri! I read all of my books. And I looked at the pictures. The only books I haven't read are in Colli's room."
"Then watch the TV." She calls back
"But-" I clamp my my teeth together when I feel pain shoot up my arm once more.
"But why can't I read Colli's books?" I ask Ahri.
"Just watch the TV!" Colli shouted.
"Why can't I read her books?" I grumble. I sit down on the couch and I pull a pillow under my head. I switch on the TV only to find baby cartoons and stuff like that.I turn it off and I stare at the ceiling.
Will this wound affect the growth of my wings?
Just the thought of that made me sweat. I cross my legs and grab the boom next to me. It was a big chapter boom.
I bet I can read this!
I start to read. I close the book. No I didn't finish it! But I learned plenty of new words. I turn to my side and take a nap. I wake up at the sound of Ahri yelling
"Dinner is ready!" She calls. I stretch, yawn, and get to me feet.
"Comin'!" I tell Ahri. I eat a meal of steak, carrots, and milk. I got cookies as a treat too. I could pretty much sense their worry. They think I will change because of that visit. You know what? I will
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ALICE'S POV
It was cold. So cold outside. My soft pink feet patted against the snow, my fluffy white ears shivering. I was small. Very small. Why? Because now I was a bunny. That was one of my forms...bunny form. I had four of them: human, bunny, and two other form that no one but me knew about.
Upon my shivering and stumbling, I came across a large house. At least there was a few lanterns in the front. The doorstep wasn't too snowy, so I huddled up next to the door and tried to sleep. Tucking my ears, I drifted off, my whole body shaking and accumulating ice. Suddenly, the door opened. I had been leaning against the door, so I fell in, little white paws grasping the floor, searching for something, anything to steady myself on. Unfortunately, there was nothing to steady myself, so my padded pink paws clambered at nothing.
My big innocent eyes looked up. A pretty girl with pointed ears and foxlike facial features looked down at me. She smiled and her gaze softened, but something about her frazzled hair and wild eyes told me that something was wrong, very wrong. She scooped me into her arms and ran upstairs. I heard her murmur, "You poor thing. You'll be my new pet bunny." I was met by chaos. There was a girl with feathers and a beak bleeding all over the floor. Another fox girl was trying to wake up the bird-girl. The first fox girl set me on the windowsill, and bundled me in a warm towel. She ran to the bird girl's aid.
The bird girl was twitching and talking in her slumber. Something about spirits and stuff. The first wolf girl screamed out "Colli!" To the other wolf girl. I guess her name was Colli. Colli responded quickly with catlike sounds and words that I assumed to be some sort of fox language. I later discovered she was just mumbling pretty quickly. Stress and tension draped the room like a thick black curtain. The bird girl was regaining consciousness. Her limbs flailed and her feathers stood on end. She began twitching and jerking.
Finally her eyes fluttered open and her body stopped moving. The calm after the storm. She sat up, running her eyes over her wounds. Everything about her facial features had a haunted look. She opened her mouth to speak but nothing came out. She had the look of a drowning animal, wide-eyed, pale-faced, dry-throated appearance.
"T-T-Talon..." She stammered.
Then she passed out again. I knew she wouldn't remember any of that...but no matter. She awoke and began watching TV...
I sat with her. She fell asleep again, her two long fingers petting the star-shape on my back. My fluffy ears flattened as I began to feel a warm, pooling sensation in my stomach. Suddenly a blast of comfortable heat rose up in me. My eyes squeezed shut. I began to transform.
A blinding flash of white, and I exploded into a girl form. I was a teenager, with black, curly hair. My skin glowed a pale alabaster white. Often confused for a vampire, since my eyes were a dark red shade. It was only natural. A lot of bunnies had a reddish tint to their eyes. So I wore blue contacts, making my eyes purple.
I sat there on the couch, in human form, with a hint of cute bunny-esque-ness. The first fox girl came in, shocked to see me.
"Who are you?!"
I smiled. "I'm Alice, and I'm your new pet bunny."

3RD PERSON
Ahri was taking a walk in the woods one day when she heard... music. A song... a sweet wonderful song. Ahri froze. A girl with copper hair, and big greens eyes walked in front of her. She looked around 15, but there was a look deep in this girl's eyes that told he she was much older. She was singing. Singing something in a different language. This girl was powerful. Magical. Enchanted. Her voice was like numbing medicine. Ahri tried to speak, but couldn't. The girl stopped singing, and looked at Ahri. Ahri slowly became more aware of everything.
"Who.. Who are you?" Ahri managed to say.
"Purity," the girl said, "I am cleanness, clearness, clarity, freshness; sterility, healthiness, safety. I'm virtue, morality, goodness, righteousness, saintliness, piety, honor, honesty, integrity, decency, ethicality, impeccability; innocence, chastity. But I prefer to just be called Purity."
Ahri stood there, dumbfounded.
"I'm lost. I'm not wanted, or needed anywhere." Purity said.
"I... I can help you" Ahri said.
"You can live with me. I live in a big home, with other people who are... different." Ahri said, feeling confident.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AVI'S POV
This bunny, or half bunny, is now Colli's pet. If came a few minutes ago. I want to know more about Alice.
"Bedtime!" Ahri called out.
"But where will Alice stay?" I ask.
"We'll figure it out. just go to bed." I walked up the stairs and opened the door to my room. I could feel Ahri's concerned gaze. She thinks it might happen again. I know tomorrow will be filled with questions. I squeeze my eyes shut and drifted off to sleep.
I wake up seeing a bandage over my injured arm. I smile.
Ahri is so caring
I open the door and shut it with my foot. I walk down the stairs to see everyone at the table.
they didn't wake me up! I oversplept! well. I suppose they didn't want me to be tired. And it's not like I have school. Better prepare myself for the questions.
I sit down, prepared for the questions.
"What was going on when I first came here?" Alice wonders.
"Well. It was sorta like she fainted" Ahri answers. Everyone turned to me.
Sighing, I say "Well it started when I woke up for the second time. I was going to tell you, Ahri, that I couldn't sleep. But it was like she couldn't hear or see me. I couldn't interact with anything either. I noticed that I was somewhat transparent. I looked out the window to see another of my kind, also transparent. His name was Talon and he told me what was going on. I was in a Land called the Spirit Land. He told me that no one would see me, hear me, or feel me. He also told me that if I get hurt in that land I get hurt in real life." I gesture to my bruises. the wanted to hear more. "I got these bruises because I thought I was a ghost so I jumped down the stairs." I heard Colli giggle so I glared at her.
"Talon told me that I couldn't trust you all. That you were using me and you never cared for me. he gave me the choice of staying with you or joining his side, and stopping you. I told him I wanted to stay with you all. he attacked me for making the "wrong choice". Oh. also he told me I can't control my visits to the Dream Land. they just happen."
they all looked bewildered. I sigh.
"Can we just eat?" I ask.
"Okay" Ahri tells me.
"Something's bugging you. Besides all of that stuff that's happening. what is it?" Ahri asks.
"Well. besides the fact it hurts, this scar."
"What about the scar?"
"I think it might affect the growth of my wings" I tell her. Her gaze softens and she smiles.
"No it won't. And when you do grow wings. You will be the best flyer." she promises me.
Put in a good mood I leave the table and I decide to chat with Alice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AHRI'S POV
We all sat by the fire, we decided to play cards, because we all LOVED to play uno when there was nothing else to do.
"We have been getting alot of new guests!" I Say to emma.
"First Mason and James," I gestured to Mason, who i was siting next to
"And then alice, and purity," i gestured to them.
"And now Repaire! will it ever stop? we will run out of room soon..."
"It just means our family of outcasts is getting bigger!" Emma replied
"i guess you are right, they fit right in!" i looked at robby next to me "Some seem to fit in more than others" I said in a flirtatious voice to him. to play with him, i unbuttoned his shirt when he wasnt looking
"H-Hey! what are you doing ahri!" Mason said furiously blushing. I giggled
"Some fox girls just want to have fun" i replied and nodded my head twords colli and chris sitting next to eachother. Colli gave me a sly wink and dropped her cards in front of james, just so she could bend over and pick them up in front of him
"Uno!" Alice bursted out in her adorable voice
"Hey! give US a chance to win will ya?" Purity replied, managing to make her voice sound beautiful even when she was angry. Emma laughed
you have won three times alice! cool it" emma said with a smile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
COLI'S POV
Still munching on a cold slab of pork, I think about what happened. My pet bunny turned into a girl. My teeth feel as though they are ripping out, this pork is so hard. "Ahri, next time cook the food." I complain. Ahri looks at me sternly. "The house would burn down if I started a fire. This place doesn't a working furnace, Colli." Staring at my feet, I stride up the stairs to my shared room with (Purity?). My ears twitch and shiver in a gust of cold wind coming from a broken window. Grabbing some mud, I seal the window only to make it look odd. Sneaking to my chest of things, I take out my slightly worn book. My diary, I think. Reading over the last time I wrote, I now write about Avi and what she said, and Alice my pet bunny. Quivering, I start to write it out with a small feather dabbed in some ink. "Dear Aurora-" I am interupted as Avi calls to me. "Ask Ahri if I can go outside, Colli!" Stashing my secret treasure, I dash to AVi. "You know what she'll say. 'No, you're too wounded.' Then you'll say, "Oh, I'm fine!" Those words sting me; why was I so mean? Avi looks disappointed but I quickly walk away, guilt churning inside me. I grab one of my old magic books that Ahri gave to me. "Spells and Shape-shifting". Flipping over to a spell, instead of snap-shifting as Ahri forbid me to do, I read what it does. "'Guiding Light Spell: Light your path'". So I start to practice sensing my aura, whatever it was Ahri told me. Concentrating on 'light', I hold my hands out in a small cup. Magical sparks flickered there, but never grew big enough for light. Trying again and again, I get frustrated. "I tried this 50 times in a minute! Why won't it work?!" Panting and seething with angry, I stomp and glance at the book. Step 5: Stay calm. Oops. Calming myself down quickly, I try again. "WOW! I made a light!" A small orb of light hovered above my cupped hands. I run out to tell Ahri.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AHRI'S POV
"Ahri!!! Ahri!!!!!" I Hear colli yell exitedly "I did it!!! I DID MAGIC!!!!!" I looked amazed as she came into the room, she has only been practicing for a month! so much talent...
"That is AMAZING! im so happy for you!" I beamed at the orb of light she had in her hands
"But its really hard to keep it up this way, how do you do it so effortlessly?" She asked hopefully
"Well, there are ways to do magic easier, like for example! scince it is hard to channel magic with just your hands, you could transfer the magic into an item." i told her
"An item?" She said confused
"Yes, an item. such as a staff, wand, or baton. or of you wish, an orb" I smiled and played with my orb, bouncing it with my nine tails.
"Ohhh! that explains alot! one time i saw a girl using light magic, she channeled it with a baton!"
I smiled, because i knew exactly who she was talking about.
"Luxanna Crownguard, she is quite famous isnt she? it does make sense, considering how powerfull she is." I stopped myself before i started to babble.
"But anyway, a magic item can be almost anything! i have seen fans, and even a giant book! i have even seen a man named Ryze, he brought back an old type of magic. he tattooed his body with runes, turning his body into a arcane powerhouse! he is quite a nice man, i sould take you to see him sometime... but anyway, magic can come from a million places, it jsut depends on what suits you the best!" Colli listened to every word i said intently.
"How come it doesnt say that in any of my books ahri?" She inquired
"Because most of the magic schools you learned from are very simple minded. they teach you the basics of magic, but nothing too exiting like elements, or supportive magic... they just make you a simple mage. nothing special or unique." Colli thought that over for a minute.
"What is one of the strangest things you have seen in the magical world ahri?" She asked shyly. i thought about that for a minute, the magic world isnt exactly normal...
"Probably a girl named Annie. She was the daughter of a powerful warlock, and an almost as powerful witch! she uses fire magic" Colli's face lit up when i said fire " She has LIMITLESS talent and potential, probably more than even you! she used magic to subdue an alpha shadow bear when she was 3, and she trapped its spirit in her teddy bear which she named tibbers. when she needs him, she can summon tibbers to fight with her. she is only about 6, yet she is more powerful than most of the people i have seen! her only weakness is her range... she has very short range, but she can use that against most people who fight close range." Colli was amazed at all of the stories i had to tell her.
"Wowww ahri, you have so many stories to tell! i want to learn to be powerful like one of thoose people you mentioned! wow!" Colli was practically bouncing with exitement.
"Okay, i think i have a spell i can teach you. it may suit you very well, and it is one of my favorites! it is called Fox-Fire. it summons three flames that circle around you and hit the nearest enemies." Colli was suprised, she was actually going to be learning a spell, she thought it was going to be all channeling magic energy and stuff.
"Here, let me demonstrate" I twirled and three blue flames appeared and started orbiting around me. Colli stared at them in disbelief
"Colli, raise your aura and come closer" So she did and when she got close enough, the fires chased after her, she looked scared and put her hands in front of her face. but the fire didnt hit her, she raised a shield unintentionally, and it protected her.
"Wha-whaaat?" Colli looked confused "Arent i supposed to be burning right now?" she looked confused
"that is just a sign, you have learned a new spell colli! you can put a spell shield up around you or your allies."
I Smiled at colli, and at the progress she was making.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PURE'S POV
was in my room, reading an old book. I heard excited squeals from Coli. Smiling, I glance outside my window. I saw a... a PERSON out there. A very familiar person... I glide down the stair case, and dash out the door.
"Pure?" Alice calls. I peek behind me, to see Alice standing there, confused.
"Hey Alice. I thought I saw a friend from the past standing outside. I was going to check if anyone was there. I won't be long." I said.
"Ok..." Alice said, warily.
"Everything is fine. This person is nice. Very nice." I say, smiling. I walk Alice back inside.
I jog out to where I thought I saw the person, while I hum a song.
"Purity. We have been waiting for you." a deep voice whispered.
I whip around to see a tall man with black hair and blue eyes. He hoist me over his shoulder. I burst into a fit of laugher as he spins around.
"Puuuurreeee!!! Did I scare ya'? he asks. He puts me down.
"Not a bit," I giggled, poking him in the shoulder.
"I missed you!" he said.
"I miss you MORE, Chives!" I said.
Chives was my older brother, and my best friend. I haven't seen him since I met Ahri.
I grab his arm, and drag him to the house.
"I want you to meet my new family." I proclaim.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ALICE'S POV
After the last time I won at UNO, I saw Purity utside through the window. I went outside to talk to her, but she said she was looking for a friend so I walked sulkily back inside.
Everyone was still playing UNO by the time I started getting drowsy. My black curly hair was still in its black, pigtailed ringlets, complete with Hello Kitty bows. I was sitting next to Robby, after winning nine consecutive games. I yawned, slightly pointy canines biting over my lower lip in a tired smile.
Ahri was unbuttoning Mason's shirt. I wrinkled my nose and scowled.
"Ahri. Stop that. This is not the right time or place for you to flirt." I scowled.
Ahri just laughed at me. She called me cute and poked my button nose. My scowl deepened. But it relaxed quickly, because I knew how to make her stop.
Yawning as cutely as I could, I glanced at Ahri, who was trying to put on the most seductive foxface she could for Mason. I began removing my headscarf that was containing my bunny ears. As soon as the pink scarf came off, my pure white bunny ears popped up, but because of sheer exhaustion, they folded back. Looking up at Mason with my bunny ears descending onto my head, I said:
"I'm tired." With something as simple as that, I put on a cute face, stretched out my arms, and laid my cards on the floor. I curled up and set my head in Mason's lap, falling asleep. I tapped a spot on my neck and the back of my ear, where there were two birthmarks in the shape of constellations. I was motioning for him to pet me there, and he dimly obliged. I smiled happily and relaxed...I calmed down when someone petted me in those two spots. It was kind of animalistic, how I was calm after that. The last thing I saw before drifting into dreamland victoriously was Ahri's flaming angry face, glaring at me for stealing him away.
Unfortunately, I was already sleeping by the time she tried to get me off of him.

3RD PERSON
"'Hi there avi!" Ahri says as the walks into the room.
"Hello ahri!" avi replies "I think my wings are starting to grow!!!" Avi feels her shoulder blades
"Im glad! i will see if i can help you for your first flight when the time comes." Ahri smiles in a caring way.
"Yaaaay! thank you ahri!" Avi jumps onto ahri's back and sits on her head "Vroooommm, vrooooommm! im flying ahri im flying!"
Ahri runs, and holds avi in place with one of her many tails while avi giggles ecstatically
"Thank you ahri! that was so fun!"
Avi hugs ahri
"Your welcome little bird." she replies and hugs avi with all nine of her tails involved. avi loved it when ahri hugged her, it made her feel safe and warm
Colli walks into the room, attracted by the noise.
"Whats going on in here guys?" she inquires
"Ahri let me fly colli! it was so fun!!" Avi replies while giggling.
"That is great avi! i cant wait to see your wings." Colli beamed and ruffled avi's hair
"Thank you colli! i think im going to go play with ella now, okay?" Avi skipped off to play with ella
"Ahri?" Colli asked "Could you teach me a few things with magic please? you seem to be great at it yourself!"
Ahri looked at colli and said "What do you need help with colli?"
"Well, i love to study magic but i cant seem to cast it very well.." Colli looked sad
Ahri thought for a moment and replied "Do you feel that warmth inside of your body? its strongest in your heart, but it flows through your whole body. concentrate really hard until you think you can feel it"
Colli closed her eyes and her brows furrowed as she tried to feel the energy. suddenly her face lit up and she said "I can feel it ahri, what is that?" she asked
"That is your mana colli, the source of all magic. concentrate harder, try to channel the energy" Colli's brows creased in more concentration after a few seconds her face stopped all signs of pressure. it suddenly looked effortless, and an aura of magic flowed around her. "Whooaoh! ahri! im doing MAGIC! Holy. cow." Ahri smiled
"You seem to have gotten a grip on your mana, advanced mages always have this aura"
Colli looked suprised "Really? this doesnt seem that hard..." Ahri smiled wider "It means you have great talent colli, i guess it is my job to refine that talent! you shall be my student, i will teach you magic." Ahri looked triumphant.
"Wow!! Really ahri?!? you will do that for me? THANK. YOU!" Colli ran over and hugged ahri. "You sould go rest alittle, and practice your aura a bit more. the more you practice, the more effortless it becomes. you are advancing fast, you sould be able to keep the aura nonstop soon" Colli beamed with happiness, and said "See you later ahri!!" and skipped away happily, not unlike the way avi did. Ahri sighed contently and went out to go get some liver to eat with a smile.

AVI'S POV
The blue in the sky fades to orange a pink.
"Ahri I'm going outside!" I shout
"Okay! Dont go too far" She shouts back.
I open up the door and I sit on the small hill.
"When will my wings grow?" I mutter to myself. The last ray of sunshine disappears and the sky grows purple. I get up and brush the snow off me. I open up the door and come to the table for dinner.
"What are we having for dinner?" Colli asks.
"Pork and water" Ahri says while cooking the pork. She puts the food in front of us and we begin to eat. I mess around with the food a little then eat. I yawn and throw away the leftover food. I plop down on the couch to watch TV for a few minutes before I go to bed. I fall asleep on the couch snoring softly. Ahri brings me to my room and tucks me in. She switches off the TV and heads to her room. I wake up, and notice it is still dark. I tiptoe outside of my room and walk downstairs. I look at the clock to find out its 10:00 PM. I tiptoe back into my room and try to sleep. I couldn't fall asleep so I looked at the books I had in my room.
"I have read ALL of these" I thought. I sneak into Ella and Colli's room and look at their books. I grab one that has to do with magic.I read until I get drowsy so I put the book back. I fall asleep once more. I wake up. It's STILL dark. I peek at the clock, it's 11:53 Pm. I Try and try to fall asleep but I just couldn't. In fact I wasn't tired at all. I walked into Ahri's room to tell her I couldnt sleep. I walk up to her bed and whisper "Ahri! Ahri!!"
I nudge and poke her. It's like she can't feel me at all! I try to wake up anyone in the house, no luck.
I think for a moment.
"Am I a ghost? Did I die in my sleep?" I try falling down the stairs. I DO get hurt.
"Not a ghost." I say.
Another thought pops into my head.
"DId time stop and IM the only one who is able to stop it?" I look at The clock again. Nope. It still moves. I look down sadly. Then I notice something. I'm somewhat transparent.
"What?!" I think. I walk into my room again. Then I see me, but not transparent. I try to find a boom that might help, but for some reason I can't pick it up. It's not heavy. I just... Can't pick it up. I can't interact with anything. I go to the front door. Yep. I can't interact with anything. I look through the window. I see a figure.
I begin to panic.
"A stranger is coming to our house and I cants stop it!" Then the figure comes closer. I blink in surprise. It's another of my kind AND it's somewhat transparent like me!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
COLI'S POV
I wake up in the morning, right at the crack of dawn. Pink is leaking into the sky and clouds so I rush towards the door. No one would see me anyway. as I sneak past Avi's room, I hear a moan. It sounded low. Quiet. Pained. Inching open the door, I tiptoe in with my ears erect and alert. My gold eyes search out Avi, laying soundless in her bed. Creepin forward to her, she has purple bruises on her face and arms. Gasping, I grab some makeshift bandages, pages out of a book. I hope they aren't important. Avi is mumbling incomprehensibly. trying to make sense of what is going on, I say, "It'll be alright Avi. Pretend this is an adventure! I'll be back soon." After about half an hour I'm back with some slightly stale bread to feed Avi. she has a big scar running down her shoulder blade. accidently dropping the bread, I fumble with it half scared to death. blood sinks into the nearby feathers and skin. Taking off pages from the bruises, I pile them onto the wound. "I wish Ahri was here, she knows EVERYTHING about healing!" Sighing, I get clean bread while munching on the stale bread. I then realize several minutes later that I can wake Ahri up. Dashing to her room, I prod her in the eyes and say, "AHRIIIII! Avi needs medicel attenshun!" Ahri's eyes open wide, but are glazed with drowsiness. she stands up and falters, but I can tell she thinks Avi just "bruised a knee." Looking at her worriedly I say, "It's serious." Of course, like all other people- or creatures- she thinks I am exaggerating about it being serious. Tugging on her arm, I pull her to Avi's dark room. My skin is pale and I'm sweating hard. Ahri senses this and walks without the tug on her arm. "is there blood, hon?" I nod slowly, scared. "Now Colli, how did it happen? It's 4:00 in the morning." Shaking my head, I whisper, "It appeared out of nowhere. she moaned and mumbled and... I'm so worried!" Ahri opens the door, and strides into the darkness towards the candle by Avi's bed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AVI'S POV
The strange figure walks closer. I realize we left a window open and he squeezes through. I realize I'm shivering, then I fluff up my feathers to try and show I'm not scared.
"You must be Avi" He assumes. His voice was strong and loud. He had a bold appearance. His feathers were shades of browns and grays. His ambers eyes seemed as if he could read my thoughts. I nod.
"An-And who are YOU?" I say trying not to sound scared.
"I am Talon. As you can see, I am one like you." He says. He seems to read my mind.
"You are in The Spirit Land"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AHRI'S POV
I see how serious her wounds are and i call my orb to my side. when it gets here, i walk over to avi and watch her looking intent at the window and talking to herself.
"Avi? are you alright?" what a stupid question. its not like she has serious wounds all over her body! i begin the process to heal avi's wounds. my orb glows a green color, not like the color when i am stealing souls, a softer, more reassuring color. her wounds begin to close when she gets a shocked expression on her face, wherever her mind was, it was not here. i wondered what she could be doing in her own little world... I leave her in her bed when the wounds finish healing and start talking with colli. "How do you think it happened?" i asked
"I dont know, i just heard a low moan while i was passing her room and went to check on her" Colli replied.
"Very strange indeed, we may have to ask her when she is out of that trance" i said
"Ahri? would yo mind giving me some more magic lessons? it might help calm me down."
"It might calm me down too, i think ill do it." while we were downstairs, i think we woke somebody up because we heard footsteps coming down.
"I wonder who that could be..." Colli said.
"I dont know, it sounds like two pairs of feet, one of them are male, one female" i replied, alert.
"How can you tell?" Colli asked, astonished at my amazing hearing
"Its quite easy to distinguish if you think about it, male footsteps are more clunky and loud. while females are more cautious or considerate." i said back. when they got here we saw it was Emma and a very attractive boy. me and colli's stances changed at the same time, to more flirtatious. foxes are known for their flirtatiousness. we exchanged looks and our fox minds told us we were both thinking the same thing. i subtly jerked me head twords him.
"Ahri, Colli, we have a new guest in the house. This is Mason" she gestured to the boy
"Its nice to meet you" i said in a seductive voice as i stepped twords them "I hope we can get to know each-other better" and i gave an indicative smile. Colli smiled at Mason and winked, in a more subtle but noticeable way. this house has never been so fun
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AVI'S POV
Talon continued to tell me about the Spirit Land.
"So is it only us two?" I wonder.
"No. there are some others." He replies.
"Why have you come to me though? I'm sure you didn't come here to chat." I ask.
"This "family" of yours... You cannot trust them" He begins
"Wha-?" I begin to say when we interrupts.
"They are using, well are going to use you. The don't really care for you." He continues to tell lies. Im not sure if I should believe him or not.
"You have two choices. You stay with your so called family, or you can join my side, and stop them. Your choice" He tells me. I blink.
What? Should I believe him? Talon, someone I JUST met. In a strange land like this! I won't believe him.
"I am staying with my family! They were always at my side!" I shout at him. "I don't believe you!"
"Wrong choice" He growls. He lunges forward and slashes my shoulder. Everything goes black for about 4 seconds. Then I open my eyes And blink twice.
Ahri notices the mumbles have stopped.
"She's back!" She shouts.
Back? I wonder.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
STILL AVI'S POV
At first everything was blurry. But then my vision returned to normal. Colli rushes forward.
"Avi! Where we're you?! we were so worried! Are you sick? What Happened?" She asks. She sure was curious.
"Colli don't overwhelm her. I think she has been through enough for one day." Ahri says while gesturing towards my wounds.
Realizing how much I hurt I grab my arm. It really hurt.
"I think she should rest" Colli says.
"No.. I want to stay up. WH-what have I missed?" I say while wincing in pain.
"You missed nothing but us panicking." Colli replies. I could see the others upstairs glancing at me.
...
...
It seems as if there was nothing to talk about. the only thing we could talk about is what happened.
"How about you read one of your books. and if you need anything call me!" She was about to walk off until I called out
"But Ahri! I read all of my books. And I looked at the pictures. The only books I haven't read are in Colli's room."
"Then watch the TV." She calls back
"But-" I clamp my my teeth together when I feel pain shoot up my arm once more.
"But why can't I read Colli's books?" I ask Ahri.
"Just watch the TV!" Colli shouted.
"Why can't I read her books?" I grumble. I sit down on the couch and I pull a pillow under my head. I switch on the TV only to find baby cartoons and stuff like that.I turn it off and I stare at the ceiling.
Will this wound affect the growth of my wings?
Just the thought of that made me sweat. I cross my legs and grab the boom next to me. It was a big chapter boom.
I bet I can read this!
I start to read. I close the book. No I didn't finish it! But I learned plenty of new words. I turn to my side and take a nap. I wake up at the sound of Ahri yelling
"Dinner is ready!" She calls. I stretch, yawn, and get to me feet.
"Comin'!" I tell Ahri. I eat a meal of steak, carrots, and milk. I got cookies as a treat too. I could pretty much sense their worry. They think I will change because of that visit. You know what? I will
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ALICE'S POV
It was cold. So cold outside. My soft pink feet patted against the snow, my fluffy white ears shivering. I was small. Very small. Why? Because now I was a bunny. That was one of my forms...bunny form. I had four of them: human, bunny, and two other form that no one but me knew about.
Upon my shivering and stumbling, I came across a large house. At least there was a few lanterns in the front. The doorstep wasn't too snowy, so I huddled up next to the door and tried to sleep. Tucking my ears, I drifted off, my whole body shaking and accumulating ice. Suddenly, the door opened. I had been leaning against the door, so I fell in, little white paws grasping the floor, searching for something, anything to steady myself on. Unfortunately, there was nothing to steady myself, so my padded pink paws clambered at nothing.
My big innocent eyes looked up. A pretty girl with pointed ears and foxlike facial features looked down at me. She smiled and her gaze softened, but something about her frazzled hair and wild eyes told me that something was wrong, very wrong. She scooped me into her arms and ran upstairs. I heard her murmur, "You poor thing. You'll be my new pet bunny." I was met by chaos. There was a girl with feathers and a beak bleeding all over the floor. Another fox girl was trying to wake up the bird-girl. The first fox girl set me on the windowsill, and bundled me in a warm towel. She ran to the bird girl's aid.
The bird girl was twitching and talking in her slumber. Something about spirits and stuff. The first wolf girl screamed out "Colli!" To the other wolf girl. I guess her name was Colli. Colli responded quickly with catlike sounds and words that I assumed to be some sort of fox language. I later discovered she was just mumbling pretty quickly. Stress and tension draped the room like a thick black curtain. The bird girl was regaining consciousness. Her limbs flailed and her feathers stood on end. She began twitching and jerking.
Finally her eyes fluttered open and her body stopped moving. The calm after the storm. She sat up, running her eyes over her wounds. Everything about her facial features had a haunted look. She opened her mouth to speak but nothing came out. She had the look of a drowning animal, wide-eyed, pale-faced, dry-throated appearance.
"T-T-Talon..." She stammered.
Then she passed out again. I knew she wouldn't remember any of that...but no matter. She awoke and began watching TV...
I sat with her. She fell asleep again, her two long fingers petting the star-shape on my back. My fluffy ears flattened as I began to feel a warm, pooling sensation in my stomach. Suddenly a blast of comfortable heat rose up in me. My eyes squeezed shut. I began to transform.
A blinding flash of white, and I exploded into a girl form. I was a teenager, with black, curly hair. My skin glowed a pale alabaster white. Often confused for a vampire, since my eyes were a dark red shade. It was only natural. A lot of bunnies had a reddish tint to their eyes. So I wore blue contacts, making my eyes purple.
I sat there on the couch, in human form, with a hint of cute bunny-esque-ness. The first fox girl came in, shocked to see me.
"Who are you?!"
I smiled. "I'm Alice, and I'm your new pet bunny."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3RD PERSON
Ahri was taking a walk in the woods one day when she heard... music. A song... a sweet wonderful song. Ahri froze. A girl with copper hair, and big greens eyes walked in front of her. She looked around 15, but there was a look deep in this girl's eyes that told he she was much older. She was singing. Singing something in a different language. This girl was powerful. Magical. Enchanted. Her voice was like numbing medicine. Ahri tried to speak, but couldn't. The girl stopped singing, and looked at Ahri. Ahri slowly became more aware of everything.
"Who.. Who are you?" Ahri managed to say.
"Purity," the girl said, "I am cleanness, clearness, clarity, freshness; sterility, healthiness, safety. I'm virtue, morality, goodness, righteousness, saintliness, piety, honor, honesty, integrity, decency, ethicality, impeccability; innocence, chastity. But I prefer to just be called Purity."
Ahri stood there, dumbfounded.
"I'm lost. I'm not wanted, or needed anywhere." Purity said.
"I... I can help you" Ahri said.
"You can live with me. I live in a big home, with other people who are... different." Ahri said, feeling confident.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AVI'S POV
This bunny, or half bunny, is now Colli's pet. If came a few minutes ago. I want to know more about Alice.
"Bedtime!" Ahri called out.
"But where will Alice stay?" I ask.
"We'll figure it out. just go to bed." I walked up the stairs and opened the door to my room. I could feel Ahri's concerned gaze. She thinks it might happen again. I know tomorrow will be filled with questions. I squeeze my eyes shut and drifted off to sleep.
I wake up seeing a bandage over my injured arm. I smile.
Ahri is so caring
I open the door and shut it with my foot. I walk down the stairs to see everyone at the table.
they didn't wake me up! I oversplept! well. I suppose they didn't want me to be tired. And it's not like I have school. Better prepare myself for the questions.
I sit down, prepared for the questions.
"What was going on when I first came here?" Alice wonders.
"Well. It was sorta like she fainted" Ahri answers. Everyone turned to me.
Sighing, I say "Well it started when I woke up for the second time. I was going to tell you, Ahri, that I couldn't sleep. But it was like she couldn't hear or see me. I couldn't interact with anything either. I noticed that I was somewhat transparent. I looked out the window to see another of my kind, also transparent. His name was Talon and he told me what was going on. I was in a Land called the Spirit Land. He told me that no one would see me, hear me, or feel me. He also told me that if I get hurt in that land I get hurt in real life." I gesture to my bruises. the wanted to hear more. "I got these bruises because I thought I was a ghost so I jumped down the stairs." I heard Colli giggle so I glared at her.
"Talon told me that I couldn't trust you all. That you were using me and you never cared for me. he gave me the choice of staying with you or joining his side, and stopping you. I told him I wanted to stay with you all. he attacked me for making the "wrong choice". Oh. also he told me I can't control my visits to the Dream Land. they just happen."
they all looked bewildered. I sigh.
"Can we just eat?" I ask.
"Okay" Ahri tells me.
"Something's bugging you. Besides all of that stuff that's happening. what is it?" Ahri asks.
"Well. besides the fact it hurts, this scar."
"What about the scar?"
"I think it might affect the growth of my wings" I tell her. Her gaze softens and she smiles.
"No it won't. And when you do grow wings. You will be the best flyer." she promises me.
Put in a good mood I leave the table and I decide to chat with Alice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AHRI'S POV
We all sat by the fire, we decided to play cards, because we all LOVED to play uno when there was nothing else to do.
"We have been getting alot of new guests!" I Say to emma.
"First Mason and James," I gestured to Mason, who i was siting next to
"And then alice, and purity," i gestured to them.
"And now Repaire! will it ever stop? we will run out of room soon..."
"It just means our family of outcasts is getting bigger!" Emma replied
"i guess you are right, they fit right in!" i looked at robby next to me "Some seem to fit in more than others" I said in a flirtatious voice to him. to play with him, i unbuttoned his shirt when he wasnt looking
"H-Hey! what are you doing ahri!" Mason said furiously blushing. I giggled
"Some fox girls just want to have fun" i replied and nodded my head twords colli and chris sitting next to eachother. Colli gave me a sly wink and dropped her cards in front of james, just so she could bend over and pick them up in front of him
"Uno!" Alice bursted out in her adorable voice
"Hey! give US a chance to win will ya?" Purity replied, managing to make her voice sound beautiful even when she was angry. Emma laughed
you have won three times alice! cool it" emma said with a smile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
COLI'S POV
Still munching on a cold slab of pork, I think about what happened. My pet bunny turned into a girl. My teeth feel as though they are ripping out, this pork is so hard. "Ahri, next time cook the food." I complain. Ahri looks at me sternly. "The house would burn down if I started a fire. This place doesn't a working furnace, Colli." Staring at my feet, I stride up the stairs to my shared room with (Purity?). My ears twitch and shiver in a gust of cold wind coming from a broken window. Grabbing some mud, I seal the window only to make it look odd. Sneaking to my chest of things, I take out my slightly worn book. My diary, I think. Reading over the last time I wrote, I now write about Avi and what she said, and Alice my pet bunny. Quivering, I start to write it out with a small feather dabbed in some ink. "Dear Aurora-" I am interupted as Avi calls to me. "Ask Ahri if I can go outside, Colli!" Stashing my secret treasure, I dash to AVi. "You know what she'll say. 'No, you're too wounded.' Then you'll say, "Oh, I'm fine!" Those words sting me; why was I so mean? Avi looks disappointed but I quickly walk away, guilt churning inside me. I grab one of my old magic books that Ahri gave to me. "Spells and Shape-shifting". Flipping over to a spell, instead of snap-shifting as Ahri forbid me to do, I read what it does. "'Guiding Light Spell: Light your path'". So I start to practice sensing my aura, whatever it was Ahri told me. Concentrating on 'light', I hold my hands out in a small cup. Magical sparks flickered there, but never grew big enough for light. Trying again and again, I get frustrated. "I tried this 50 times in a minute! Why won't it work?!" Panting and seething with angry, I stomp and glance at the book. Step 5: Stay calm. Oops. Calming myself down quickly, I try again. "WOW! I made a light!" A small orb of light hovered above my cupped hands. I run out to tell Ahri.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AHRI'S POV
"Ahri!!! Ahri!!!!!" I Hear colli yell exitedly "I did it!!! I DID MAGIC!!!!!" I looked amazed as she came into the room, she has only been practicing for a month! so much talent...
"That is AMAZING! im so happy for you!" I beamed at the orb of light she had in her hands
"But its really hard to keep it up this way, how do you do it so effortlessly?" She asked hopefully
"Well, there are ways to do magic easier, like for example! scince it is hard to channel magic with just your hands, you could transfer the magic into an item." i told her
"An item?" She said confused
"Yes, an item. such as a staff, wand, or baton. or of you wish, an orb" I smiled and played with my orb, bouncing it with my nine tails.
"Ohhh! that explains alot! one time i saw a girl using light magic, she channeled it with a baton!"
I smiled, because i knew exactly who she was talking about.
"Luxanna Crownguard, she is quite famous isnt she? it does make sense, considering how powerfull she is." I stopped myself before i started to babble.
"But anyway, a magic item can be almost anything! i have seen fans, and even a giant book! i have even seen a man named Ryze, he brought back an old type of magic. he tattooed his body with runes, turning his body into a arcane powerhouse! he is quite a nice man, i sould take you to see him sometime... but anyway, magic can come from a million places, it jsut depends on what suits you the best!" Colli listened to every word i said intently.
"How come it doesnt say that in any of my books ahri?" She inquired
"Because most of the magic schools you learned from are very simple minded. they teach you the basics of magic, but nothing too exiting like elements, or supportive magic... they just make you a simple mage. nothing special or unique." Colli thought that over for a minute.
"What is one of the strangest things you have seen in the magical world ahri?" She asked shyly. i thought about that for a minute, the magic world isnt exactly normal...
"Probably a girl named Annie. She was the daughter of a powerful warlock, and an almost as powerful witch! she uses fire magic" Colli's face lit up when i said fire " She has LIMITLESS talent and potential, probably more than even you! she used magic to subdue an alpha shadow bear when she was 3, and she trapped its spirit in her teddy bear which she named tibbers. when she needs him, she can summon tibbers to fight with her. she is only about 6, yet she is more powerful than most of the people i have seen! her only weakness is her range... she has very short range, but she can use that against most people who fight close range." Colli was amazed at all of the stories i had to tell her.
"Wowww ahri, you have so many stories to tell! i want to learn to be powerful like one of thoose people you mentioned! wow!" Colli was practically bouncing with exitement.
"Okay, i think i have a spell i can teach you. it may suit you very well, and it is one of my favorites! it is called Fox-Fire. it summons three flames that circle around you and hit the nearest enemies." Colli was suprised, she was actually going to be learning a spell, she thought it was going to be all channeling magic energy and stuff.
"Here, let me demonstrate" I twirled and three blue flames appeared and started orbiting around me. Colli stared at them in disbelief
"Colli, raise your aura and come closer" So she did and when she got close enough, the fires chased after her, she looked scared and put her hands in front of her face. but the fire didnt hit her, she raised a shield unintentionally, and it protected her.
"Wha-whaaat?" Colli looked confused "Arent i supposed to be burning right now?" she looked confused
"that is just a sign, you have learned a new spell colli! you can put a spell shield up around you or your allies."
I Smiled at colli, and at the progress she was making.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PURE'S POV
was in my room, reading an old book. I heard excited squeals from Coli. Smiling, I glance outside my window. I saw a... a PERSON out there. A very familiar person... I glide down the stair case, and dash out the door.
"Pure?" Alice calls. I peek behind me, to see Alice standing there, confused.
"Hey Alice. I thought I saw a friend from the past standing outside. I was going to check if anyone was there. I won't be long." I said.
"Ok..." Alice said, warily.
"Everything is fine. This person is nice. Very nice." I say, smiling. I walk Alice back inside.
I jog out to where I thought I saw the person, while I hum a song.
"Purity. We have been waiting for you." a deep voice whispered.
I whip around to see a tall man with black hair and blue eyes. He hoist me over his shoulder. I burst into a fit of laugher as he spins around.
"Puuuurreeee!!! Did I scare ya'? he asks. He puts me down.
"Not a bit," I giggled, poking him in the shoulder.
"I missed you!" he said.
"I miss you MORE, Chives!" I said.
Chives was my older brother, and my best friend. I haven't seen him since I met Ahri.
I grab his arm, and drag him to the house.
"I want you to meet my new family." I proclaim.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ALICE'S POV
After the last time I won at UNO, I saw Purity utside through the window. I went outside to talk to her, but she said she was looking for a friend so I walked sulkily back inside.
Everyone was still playing UNO by the time I started getting drowsy. My black curly hair was still in its black, pigtailed ringlets, complete with Hello Kitty bows. I was sitting next to Robby, after winning nine consecutive games. I yawned, slightly pointy canines biting over my lower lip in a tired smile.
Ahri was unbuttoning Mason's shirt. I wrinkled my nose and scowled.
"Ahri. Stop that. This is not the right time or place for you to flirt." I scowled.
Ahri just laughed at me. She called me cute and poked my button nose. My scowl deepened. But it relaxed quickly, because I knew how to make her stop.
Yawning as cutely as I could, I glanced at Ahri, who was trying to put on the most seductive foxface she could for Mason. I began removing my headscarf that was containing my bunny ears. As soon as the pink scarf came off, my pure white bunny ears popped up, but because of sheer exhaustion, they folded back. Looking up at Mason with my bunny ears descending onto my head, I said:
"I'm tired." With something as simple as that, I put on a cute face, stretched out my arms, and laid my cards on the floor. I curled up and set my head in Mason's lap, falling asleep. I tapped a spot on my neck and the back of my ear, where there were two birthmarks in the shape of constellations. I was motioning for him to pet me there, and he dimly obliged. I smiled happily and relaxed...I calmed down when someone petted me in those two spots. It was kind of animalistic, how I was calm after that. The last thing I saw before drifting into dreamland victoriously was Ahri's flaming angry face, glaring at me for stealing him away.
Unfortunately, I was already sleeping by the time she tried to get me off of him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'LL CONTINUE POSTING LATER.
GOODBYE
