Yawning she rolled over and fell asleep between the persons she loves the most.

Magical creatures- inheritances
Chapter twenty four:
The Kitsune

The Kitsune is a magical creature from the Japanese mythology. There are two different types of Kitsune's:
The fist one is Zenko. They are messengers from the goddess Inari. The Zenko foxes are pure white. They can travel between the spiritual and human world to communicate with the goddess and the other goddesses and gods.
The second type is the Yako. They behave mischievously and afflict human being by attacking poultry houses at night.

Many Kitsune's develop new skills as they grew older. They learn to speak human languages and even shift into human or rather fox form.
Kitsune's can also take the form of spirits capable of possessing people or entering their dreams. One of the main characteristics of Kitsune's is that they always keep their promises made to humans.
A fox that reaches the age of one-hundred deploy a second tail and its magical abilities reach a new level.
After living one-thousand years a fox will become a Kyuubi No Kitsune, the famous nine-tailed fox. Besides its color that is white/silver or gold/brown they can spit fire balls from their tails or mouth and it can also see and hear all the things that happen in the world. If a nine-tailed fox became evil they could do a great damage to the world.
Many natural disasters such as fires, earthquakes and stark windstorms are ascribable to an evil Kitsune.

An inheritance Kitsune has the same abilities and long (almost immortal) lifespan. The only difference between a born and a inheritance Kitsune is that the inheritance Kitsune's tail-tip becomes a special color a few months after its inheritance. The color symbolizes their special gift that they became from the goddess herself.

The different colors are:
•red = Love and passion
•orange = Luck and optimism
•green = Hope and happiness
•violet = Kindness and intelligence
•white = Health and life
•black = Shadows and death

The colors of the tail-tip doesn't define the character of the Kitsune, they just tell what the goddess blessed them with, what she finds that the Kitsune could master better than no other and do god to the world.

Every Kitsune has a mate| lover| fates chosen|... that, after they are bonded, will live with the Kitsune as long as it want's to live.

Wow that is so cool! was the first thought that Jasmine had after she read that chapter. But then another thought came into her mind... I will outlive my family...

Her ears slumped against her head and her smile vanished.

A light knock was heard and a few seconds later Stanley walked in, still in his healer robes because he just came from work.

When he smells the grief that comes from Jasmine his grin turned into a soft smile.

He walked towards her and sat next to Jasmine.

„What is it sweetie?" he asked to quiet for human ears to hear but Jasmine heard him perfectly.

„I am going to outlive you all." she said in a small voice but thanks to Stanley's wolf-hearing it wasn't a problem.

„Don't worry sweetie, you won't outlive us." he tried to soothe her but she was having nothing of it.

„No I am going to outlive you all and then I am alone and forgotten..." she trailed of as her mind breaks again. <I will be alone... alone... forgotten... alone-> whispers the small new voice over and over again.

~In the ‚common-room'~

„What the fuck?!" whisper-shouted Lola when suddenly a loud crack was heard from outside her private room.

Jumping up and walking outside she was greet with a shocking sight.

A little girl not older then four, with pale skin and shoulder length, dark red greasy hair sat on the violet couch at the far back of the room.

Walking over to the girl Lola touched her shoulder lightly- the little girl flinched.

„Hey it's okay little one." said Lola and bought the girl into a light hug. „Do you have a name?" she asked the trembling girl in her arms that looked so much like the body when it was younger.

The girl shock her head.

„Hmmm... how about Ella?" asked Lola the sweet trembling child in her arms. The girl- now Ella, nodded a small smile playing on her lips but vanishing quickly after.
