i couldn't sleep at all. i decided to walk campus for a while. and there was jude.... sitting watching the slow sunrise.... he turned his head and saw me a few yards behind him. he waved me over and i sat down next to him.
"could you not sleep miyu?"
"no...... i had an awful dream"
"well. look. theres the sunrise, marking the end of that awful dream, and the start of a beautiful new one."i looked up at him. i didnt know what to say.... i just looked at him. he pointed to the sunrise and i watched. so beautiful. he put his arm around me and pulled me close to him. i cuddled up to his side. not wanting to leave. he hugged me tight and i got a strange sensation through my body... not love.... no.... something....
"i need to go.... im tired and i need to get to my dorm...."
"yea. this was nice. ill see you later in class mmk?"
"yea.... bye jude...."
"wait!"
he walked up to me and spun me around to face him. he pressed his lips to mine and stepped back. stumbling and his face turning pink. it was cute. i covered my lips with one hand and stepped back... turning hot red. i ran to my dorm and jumped into the bed. curling up and falling asleep for the small bit of time i had left. do i like him that way? i thought to myself in my head. and a deep booming voice interrupted my thoughts...
"you are not to be with the likes of them, Miyu."
"who are you?"
"i am the being that lives inside of you. your parents never told you. they hoped youd have grown out of it. remember your days as a child?"
i could not remember... my parents had always told me i had a terrible accident. and that i would probably never reme...... there they are.... this voice in my head had unleashed my memories.... theres me. as a young child. i look so cute. oh no..... my eyes.... blood red.... wings protruding my back.... fire coming from my hands..... is this what they wanted to hide? i look like i did in that dream.... what is happening?
"i am the soul of the dragon. your family was of a select group of humans who were born with my jean in them. ever wonder why you had to leave your home? why you had to leave that enclosed town that was deescalate? the people there were born with my jean aswell. they are all dead. your parents died getting you out of the country. the parents you have now? pilgrims to the race of dragon borns."
"how could any of this be real.... how could...."
i was woken up by senora. who was screaming at me.
"MIYU! YOU HAVE WINGS!"
i jumped up quick and looked in the mirror. big. red. wings. my eyes red as blood. i thought to myself for the wings to go away. and they disappeared, my eyes also changing to normal. i walked back to senora who was pale. sitting on her bed. mouth wide open.
"senora.... im sick... im not going to class today..."
i opened the window in the room and a blast of cold air came through. i closed it and opened it a crack. laying in my bed and falling asleep.
2 hours later.
"you know miyu. skipping class to sleep late is punishable by a 3 hour detention here."
i rolled over at judes voice. i looked at him. his eyes looked of ice blue.... he sat in the window and jumped down. closing it behind him.
"surprised at the weather? courtesy of yours truly."
he spun his hand up in the air and a snowflake fell onto my cheek. i was still snuggled in bed. he sat on it next to me and put his hand on my forehead.
"your hot. here. i can help that."
he kissed me. immediately waking me up. and i felt slightly better. he rubbed my back. and up my wings, when had they come out again? what would he think? i tried to speak but he put a finger to my lips and climbed over me. i pulled in my wings and he lay behind me. pulling me against his body and resting his head on my chest. where we both fell asleep.
"WAKE UP ASSHOLES"
yukine was standing over us in a black robe and holding some kind of stick i thought. i couldnt tell because he immediately put it down and smacked jude.
"are you fucking kidding me with that weather shit? you know how the news channel does that Doppler radar stuff? they cant fucking figure out what the fuck happened. its like that shit you pulled when we were in the north pole with the fucking heat."
"come on man, you couldnt have just summoned me? you had to wake up Miyu too?"
yukine looked at my wings and raised his scythe
"i told you something was up jude."
"yukine, let me handle this stuff ok? i like her.... and ive already claimed her as mine. so you, and any other god cant have her unless you rip her away from my dead body."
i yelled and jumped up
"both of you hush."
i hugged jude and looked over at yukine. who hit the end of his scythe against the floor. we suddenly appeared in a room. dark wood walls with pictures. a bar on one side and a poker table where yukine and jude now sat. i sat at the bar and got myself some water. i listened to their convorsation.
"wheres coda? he should be here any time now."
"yukine. shes the last of the dragons. she can help us."
"help us! what the fuck jude! you cant do this shit without my fucking permission. im the one who gave you your powers. i own your soul. and i can easily let you free. and you know what happens then."
"yeah.... but against the other gods, she can help us. i mean come on..... as a baby she almost killed one of the five gods. and i have no doubt with my help she will become a great fighter."
"she did almost kill one of the gods. thats why im worried. as a baby she had that much power.... imagine her at this age."
"afraid shell kill you like she tried to kill..."
jude was cut off by coda entering the room. a girl under each arm. his girlfriend and what looked like her younger sister.
"sup fuckers. im here."
