Where am I...? My eyelids feel heavy.. I feel like I am floating, I can't breath but I am not suffocating.
-Our...
I can barely hear the voice coming from behind me, I slowly open my eyes, my vision blurry, all I can see is a fist heading toward me quickly. I don't have a second to react before it connect with my cheek, I can feel myself falling on the cold floor, a red mass forming under me.
-Our...
I try sitting up but I am suddenly stopped as a foot is pressed against my back, pushing me down. I don't have the energy to scream anymore.
-Our prey...
I close my eyes as I feel something being wrapped around my neck tightly and lifting me up from the floor, I can only hope it will end soon.
-Our..prey!
I suddenly open my eyes, a terrible headache pulsing to life as I push who ever was holding me away, my vision becoming clear and sharp as I stare at who was standing before me, Duke Ouin, as if his name matter anyway. I shake my head, blood still leaking from my head, cheek, arm and neck. I growl softly as they all stare at me, and honestly, it is getting on my nerves. I can barely see the knife coming toward me as one of them tried to cut me open, but I was more quick than them, grabbing their arm and throwing them over me as if they weighed nothing. A loud howl escaped my lips as I feel my tail growing, suddenly and in a bloody mess, it split in nine smaller tails, all covered in blood.
-Our prey...
The words came out of my maw without me wanting to, I wasn't in control anymore, he was. Everyone stared at me, fear in their pathetic eyes, and suddenly, reality hit them as they started screaming, running away, only one staying where they stood, I felt no fear in them. I turned around, facing them and when I met their eyes I stopped dead in my track, and as if I was a little pup, who had been grounded I felt on all four, slowly walking toward the person, rubbing my cheek against their leg, as if I was asking for forgiveness. I felt their hand on my head as they kneeled in front of me, they whispered words to me. I felt my tails becoming one again as tears slowly felt from my tired eyes, I wanted to cry, and with her I knew I could and that is what I did, I cried. I felt her arms around me in a soft hug, rubbing one hand on my back as I kept on crying. What had I become..?~Today~
Beep.Beep.Beep.Beep.Be-
The annoying sound was soon stopped as I kicked my alarm off my nightstand, making it shatter as it hit the floor. I groan softly as I slowly open my eyes, cursing this stupid alarm I sit up on my bed, scratching the back of my head looking around. Everything was the same, the blue walls of my room with many posters of various games still hanging on them. My TV that I had left open while falling asleep was now displaying some girly-ass movie that I couldn't care more about. I reached for my phone, and as usual, it was on my nightstand, as I picked it up I saw that I had forgot to plug it last night, I groaned annoyed at myself, trying to turn it on to see if it had any battery at all, and to my surprise, it didn't had any! Yeah...sarcasm.., I got out of my bed, plugging my phone for the time being, I took a quick glance at my watch, realising that it was too, broken...
-For fuck sake!
I yelled to myself as I stormed out of my room toward the bathroom, hearing slight giggles from upstairs, great smart-ass is up. I closed the bathroom door behind me and turned on the shower, as I waited for the water to become hot I stared at myself in the mirror. A coyote with a deep blue eye, the other being black with a red iris, stared back at me. His fur was black with white on his belly and chest. I sighed softly, hopping in the shower, quickly washing myself for the day. I turn off the water and wrapped a towel around my waist as I came out of the shower, taking a furdryer, I dry my fur as quick as I could, combing the little hair I had so that it hid my black eye, I went back to my room. Taking my favorite grey tee with "Fuck off, I am fabulous" written on it and a pair of ripped jeans, along with my necklace and ring. I quickly dressed myself before heading upstair, the smell of pancake reaching me before I even reached upstairs.
-Good morning grumpy butt.
Leaning against the counter was Hoshiko, my best friend since we were little pup, she is a cat with black fur like me, her eyes are green, standing at 5'6 feet tall.
-morning...
I walked toward the living room of our dorm, letting myself fall on it face first, I heard her chuckle slightly.
-Are the others still asleep?
I asked her, lifting my head slightly, I heard her walk around, probably taking her pancakes and eating them before answering between two piece
-Yeah, and also, it'll be 35$.
I couldn't see her but I knew she was smiling, groaning I pointed at my wallet on the table. Everytime I break my alarm she buy me a new one.
-You know, it would cost you less if you got your own driver license?
-I don't give a damn.. I would probably end up going full speed toward anothet car.
I heard her soft sigh, there was no other word needed, we both know why I was saying such things.
I, Kyle Runan, is haunted by a demon called Akhaba.
We both tilted our head when we heard the sound of a door opening at the end of the hallway, stepping out of it was Luke 'I can't remember his last name'. He was a wolf with white as snow fur, and beautiful purple eyes. He's Hoshiko boyfriend and, sadly, one of the few that saw me outburst. He walked toward Hoshi and I knew it was my time to leave, taking my bag I walked out of our dorm, not looking back. You are probably wondering why I am leaving like this, it's not because me and Luke don't get along, it's more because he is afraid of me.. Like I said, he's been one that had to witness one of my outburst. That's what I call the moments when the demon take over me, and it is always the same thing, first my tail will grow, then, depending on how much control he got, it'll be sliced into more tails, up to nine. The time he saw me outburst it was only two tails so it wasn't that bad, Hoshi was able to calm me pretty easily, but I fear the day I'll have nine tails again. Being deep in though I hadn't noticed that I was about to bump into someone, and before I saw him, I already had hit his back, falling on the floor on my butt I groaned softly, looking at the idiot who was standing there.
-Why the fu-..
I was cut short as I looked at him, he was a golden retriever, with the usual blond fur and blue eyes, he held out his hand for me, a genuine look of worry on his face.
-I-I'm sorry! Are you fine?
I took his hand and stood up with his help, taking deep breaths, I could feel my tail becoming smaller, that was a close one...
-Yeah..
I looked him up and down, only now noticing that I had never seen him before, tilting my head slightly I spoke again.
-Are you new?
-H-how did you know? W-well yes I am actually.
I crossed my arms, smiling softly at him, I won't lie, he is cute when he stutter.
-Did they forgot to tell you your dorm number?
-uh? There is dorm?
I stared at him in disbelief, they didn't even told him he would be sleeping with others people?! How useless can the direction can be..?
-Well those fuckers didn't told you anything.. Well I guess they won't mind if you come in my dorm, we have one room left just to your luck.
-Uhm I think I'll be fine... I th-
He was cut short, his ears went down as he stared at me, as if he just saw a ghost.
-Akhaba....
-uh?
-You are haunted!
He took hold of my hand and started running. Where? I had no idea but it's when I saw its bell that I stopped him, he stared at me with fear in his eyes.
-No.. I am not going there.
-But you are haunted! We need to ge-
I placed my hand over his maw, taking a sharp right and throwing him before a bunch of bushes just as 'he' was passing by, I kept my hand over his maw until he was out of sight, I sighed softly.
-First of, yes I am haunted. Second, I am not going there, I know what they do and I would like to keep my life.
He mumbled something, letting go of his mouth he say nothing, he simply stare into the distance.
-You mean...that they kill..?
-Yeah, and you may be wondering why, well the priest of this dumb ass church is the father of my best friend, she know what is going on in there.
-.....I am an idiot.
-I don't blame you, they have a way to corrupt your mind into thinking you are doing the good choice.
~~Timeskip~~The moon was high in the sky as I walked out, my tail slowly wagging behind me, brushing against the floor. I gave one more glance behind me, making sure that no one heard me going out in the middle of the night and I took off.
You are probably wondering what I am doing right?
It is pretty simple, hunting.
I turned left toward a forest, and when I was out of eyesight I threw my bag on the ground, unzipping it I took my mask, the mask of a fox, something about japanese folklore, a fox named Kyube or something like that. As I placed it on my face I felt my tail growing, kneeling on the cold ground, a sharp howl escaped my lips as my tail was cut into nine, leaving a puddle of blood on the grass.
-I, Kyle Runan, set you free for the night Akhaba. By our pact of blood, your claws remain away from those I love.And with those words I was gone, in a dark secluded place, I could hear the sound of his paws hitting the forest floor as he ran through to woods to find a new victim for himself. I had the whole night to think about stuff, but it's only in those time that I can clearly remember my past. Many consider Akhaba as a demon, for me he's a guardian angel... If it wasn't for his strange power, I would be dead by now. I hear a scream and the sound of flesh being ripped as he eat his prey of the night.
-Need...more...
I hear him pant softly, I swear that I can even hear the blood falling from his maw.
-where is the moon?
-High...high in its celestial heaven....
I though for a moment and shrugged softly.
-Then hunt until the moon is hiding behind trees.
I could hear a maniacal laughter as he got to finding a new prey, I yawned softly, having misery to keep my eyes open.
-Akhaba, wake me up when you are done hunting.
I received no response but I knew he heard me, and with that I fell asleep, deep inside my own mind.
~Ahkaba POV~
-Kyle...
I pushed him slightly with my muzzle, trying to awake him but all I got was groaning. I sighed softly as I sat on my back legs, cleaning my paws, tasting the blood of the victims once more, a contented sigh escaping my maw as I shudder softly.
-Kyle, wake up...
-five more minute...
He turned around, his back now facing me, his ears lazily twitching once, I rolled my eyes at his laziness, curling up in his arms, staring up at his is still closed eyes, his mouth slightly open, his cute snoring (did I seriously though that.. ?) getting on my nerve slightly. I place my paw on his forehead but quickly take it away, a sharp pain coursing through it, I clench my teeth, hissing in pain. And just as quick as it started it went away. I stared at my paw and to no surprise I saw a burnt mark on it, some of my fur missing. I stayed curled in his arms as I waited for him to wake up.
Kyle Runan... This boy is rather strange. I am a demon who seek blood and sorrow yet... He isn't afraid of me, he almost act like I am a long lost friend. I cannot touch him or else I'll get hurt and it is what make it even more strange, is he so pure that I can't touch him..? After what seemed like a year he finally opened his eyes, my attention focused on the black eye.
-Uhm Ahkaba..?
-mmh..?
-Why are you.. Curled against me?
-I.. Have no idea.
I stood up, shaking my head, growling to myself.
-Just wake up, the sun is going up.
-I still have time, Ahkaba can I ask you something?
I sighed softly and turned around, facing him, I sat on my back legs, tilting my head.
-Go ahead...
-Who were you before...?~End of chapter 1~
