Breaking Point

Introduction

(character is mine, i didn't draw it cause i suck at it)

I wake from my spot in the forest as i can feel the rising sun's warm rays washing over my body causing my hair to glow, slowly taking a deep breath of the cool dewy air. I get up from my spot in the forest and stretch trying to wake up more. Grabbing my bag and hiding it in an old tree trunk knowing that no other animals or people will disturb it, nothing comes out this far into the woods. I make my way out of the forest walking a few blocks to my house being ninja quiet as i walk in even though my father is at work already and my little sister is still asleep.

Sneaking back into my bedroom i close the door and start getting ready for school. Class starts at 8 but i figured why not get ready early, it being 5:30 in the morning plus it takes us half an hour to walk to school (school is over a mile away). I run a brush through my hair getting rid of what i call forest head, not even bothering to shower or change for i didn't get that dirty from sleeping in the forest.

Once 6:00am rolls around i go to wake up my sister knowing full well that she is going to be a shit about it just like always. I slam my sister's door open "Wakey wakey motherfucker!!!" i yell causing her to jolt awake and fall off her bed. "Fuuuck yoouuu..." she groans as i laugh at how well my plan worked. "Get up for school, you know what dad will do if we're late again." i remind her. "I know" she mumbles knowing exactly what i meant by it.

I walk out of her room and into the kitchen to make our lunches for school, father hates when he has to spend more money on us than he needs to. Most of the clothes we have are hammy-downs from friends, family, or each other and from years beyond remembrance. About 20 minutes later she comes into the kitchen, as soon as she steps foot inside the room i toss her lunch at her and walk past her to the front door. "lets go" i say opening the door and wait for her to step out first, after she does i close and lock the door behind us and start our walk.

*Time Skip to when we reach the school*

As soon as we walk in the school we separate and the flock of bitches surround me blocking any and all possible exits and signs of freedom. I try to break through them instead getting kicked in the stomach and falling to the ground. " Where do you think you're going furry freak?"said the group's wretched leader, Brianna. "Just going to class, fuck-off." "Oh no you don't." a different girl says grabbing my collar to pick me up and tossed me into the lockers behind me receiving a loud bang of metal and locks. "what the fuck do you want?" i ask half groaning in pain. "You to die, kill yourself or get killed by one of us" Brianna says bluntly as three girls behind her pull out switchblades. One of them comes up to me and raises my shirt without saying a word and creates a large cut across my stomach, not enough to need stitches but enough to make it bleed for a long time. The bell rang indicating that class was starting, they all give me a hit of some kind and rush to class as i just lay there in pain.

This happens everyday and has happened everyday since the first grade. I am currently in the eighth grade and today is the first day back to school, i was notified two days ago by my father that we would be moving in two months with his new girlfriend. I don't even know where she lives so that doesn't help.

The reason these kids have been bullying me for so long is because i am a kitsune  or half human, half fox. No one else in my family is a kitsune  for they are all human. I am because there was a genetic mutation that had occurred while i was in the womb causing me to be like this.

I get up slowly trying not to hurt myself more and go to the bathroom to clean up a little of the blood and go across the hall to the nurses' office. I walk in with a stoic expression as always. "Hello Roxanne, what injuries did you inquire this morning?" Ms. Lynch says chipper per the usual. I wait for her to look up from her desk, once she does i lift up my shirt revealing the large gash on my stomach. She just stairs at it in complete befuddlement wondering how a student was able to sneak a blade into the school with all of the metal detectors, one at each exit. She helps me by bandaging the wound. Once she finishes i walk out of the nurses' office and continue the rest of my day like normal.
