Taka sat on her swing watching me while Tokage laid on Ōkami's head. I was currently getting dressed since the entrance exam was today. I opted for a yellow sleeveless thin hoodie and white shorts. I put on my white face mask with "Fuck Off" in yellow letters. As I finished wrapping both my arms Pops came to my door.

"Hey kiddo, Shota wants you to fill up before we go," he said peeking his head in.

I nodded and he ruffled my hair leaving. They never ask why my arms are always wrapped and I'm thankful. Pops and Dad along with Nedzu helped me find other ways to collect energy. I can now absorb energy from plants. Since I haven't been needing to heal anyone or myself I have a lot stockpiled. Dad made it a habit to absorb as much as I could without killing the plants ever since I got here.

I walk downstairs, Taka and the others following close behind. I go to the back sliding door walking outside. I sit down on the ground closing my eyes. I inhale deeply as I feel green and black energy swirl around me.

I pull it into my body feeling the scales on my fingers travel up my arms to my neck. I then feel my teeth elongate slightly. I open my eyes as they immediately zoom in on a butterfly as it moves almost like it's in slow motion.

My wings doubled in size outstretched behind me. As I exhale I feel my body slowly go back to its "natural" state. I stand up and turn towards my parents watching me from the doorway smiling. I walk over and they pat me on the head.

"I love watching that it's so pretty!" Yamada beams as my tail sways from the comment.

We walk to the door putting on our shoes. Once ready Ōkami and the others enter my shadow. The ride there was nice and peaceful. Once inside the school, we had to go our separate ways. I walked up to Nemuri who smiled giving me a badge number and testing room number. She told me a quick good luck and I waved goodbye.

As I entered the large auditorium I sat in my assigned seat. I laid my head on the desk compartment having a conversation with Ōkami and Taka. Unfortunately, Tokage hasn't figured out how to communicate with me yet.

Soon the rows filled up with teens and a familiar scent sat next to me. I slowly sat up glancing to my right. Kacchan sat beside me mumbling angrily about extras. He doesn't seem to recognize me. Good.

Soon our test begins and I realize mine is comprised of the hardest college questions from old university tests. This is probably Nedzu's doing though these questions aren't challenging at all.

I finish the test in no more than 20 minutes but wait 30 more not wanting to finish too quickly. Once I feel I've waited long enough I stand up walking down the few stairs to pops. I hand him my test and he gives me a sympathetic smile.

"I know you're uncomfortable and anxious. Nedzu says it's ok if you have Tokage keep you company." He whispered to me.

I nod my tail swaying slightly. I make my way to my seat sitting down. Kacchan angrily glanced at me but I ignored him. I place my hand upwards on the desk and Tokage appears in my palm. He steps out of my hand tripping over his tail.

He stumbles and ends up on his back. I let one of my claws grow slightly longer. I then gently scratch under his chin. He makes soft hissing sounds similar to giggling though no one can hear it but me. His tiny feet grab onto my finger and I carefully flip him over.
