Powers of Tigoris [MYTHICAL SERIES 1] | REWRITTEN

ONE || Sakari's Genesis

THE SOUND OF MUSIC COULD BE HEARD in a bedroom. A girl with dark brown hair and blonde streaks was playing some while getting ready for school. It was her first day and she made sure that she would be there early. 

On her bed was a thick book with the letter M engraved on it. She had just been reading the origin chapter earlier before getting ready for the day, wanting to take it with her in case she got bored.

"Sakari, are you up?" a woman's voice broke through the music. The said sixteen year-old turned it off.

"I'm coming, Mom!" Sakari voiced, making her way down the stairs. She was donned in a white t-shirt and orange vest, along with red shorts and sneakers to match. 

The aroma of breakfast reached her nose when she stepped off of the last step, a smile cracking across her light brown skin. It really lifted her spirits and her motivation today.

Aiwami spotted her child and smiled, brushing a strand of hair out of her face. She was making grilled fish, accompanied with rice and miso soup. "How did you sleep, Sakari?"

"I slept well. I'm really excited for today!" Sakari flapped her hands. "I can't believe that I'm going to start my junior year at Izaka Academy." She knew that transferring would be difficult.

"Mhm." Aiwami nodded. "I'm glad that the principal there agreed to letting you attend. It's been hard, you know, since we took up home-schooling."

The brunette nodded, helping set up everything at the breakfast table. Sakari hadn't used to do home-schooling, but after things changed in the Hinagu household, they had reverted to that. She knew that she had to adjust to being at school again.

"I know. But I feel like I got this. I am a bit nervous, though." Sakari frowned. The aroma helped distract her and she assisted her mother in bringing it to the table.

"Well, a lot of students feel nervous on their first day of school. But once you finish it and continue on, you will break into the routine." Aiwami gave her child a reassuring smile, resting a hand on her shoulder.

Sakari returned the smile, prior to sitting down at the table. She got her chopsticks and began eating, with Aiwami doing the same. The two used cutlery from time to time, but they mostly used chopsticks.

"Hey, what are my classes for the semester again?" the brunette mused, after swallowing a piece of her food. She did not have a good memory, so she was prone to forget things.

"Well, you're going to be taking a couple basic courses. Math, Science, and History. I believe you offered to sign up for Tigorian Mythology, right?" Aiwami recalled these off of the top of her head, her brown hues flicking over to her child's matching ones.

"Oh, right!" That had almost slipped Sakari's mind. "I can't wait to see how that class is going to go."

"And I'm sure that you will love it. It's fairly new from what I read when signing you up for your courses. They  started teaching it last year." Aiwami noticed the time when looking at the clock. "Let's finish up and get you to school."

Sakari nodded and continued eating her food. Once she finished and all that jazz, she and her mother were on their way towards Kiyosumi Academy.

The sixteen year-old was now in the car with her mother, looking at the window. Other cars were driving past, one blasting music that could be heard from outside. There were also people walking their dogs on the sidewalk. Everything seemed pretty calm today and Sakari didn't mind that.

They eventually neared the school. It looked like any other school, really, with the dull grey walls, the name emblazoned on the front. Aiwami and Sakari got out of the car and headed inside. There before them was a line of students waiting to be taken to their classes.
