Amai~Almost through math

[Amai Tenpi]

The scribbling of pens and pencils against paper was almost deafening. Normally it was soothing, but today, Mai found it harder to ignore. Her head ached and her stomach grumbled for no reason.

She was beggining to realise how annoying the math was. It was never her thing, but she always smiled and sat through it. But today she didn't feel so great.

She wondered if what the docter said had anything to do with it.
Pace yourself... He had said, ..It will Go away again if you relax.

Waiting for it to come and go was all that she ever did, it was'nt enjoyable. And the fact that math was the one subject that you had to use your head the most was not helping either.

She stared at the clock and clicked her nails on the desk. Waiting for class to end.

[Ashi Mitsuki]

Ashi clicked his tongue once, and finished a doodle on his paper. Naturally he was a fast writer, and a smart one at that, but this was just getting too old.

"Come on, damn clock."

He growled under his breath as the minutes ticked by. Only three minutes left of this damned math class, and he was out. He turned his body slightly, and sneezed, causing himself to change into a black panther.

"Damn."

"Ashi! No shifting in classes! You know the rules!"

The teacher blabbed across the room. Obviously he had no intention of how hard it was when you were catching a cold. Shifters did have those issues of getting sick. Ashi's summer cold just happened to begin now.

"Yeah, yeah....Shut it, I'm turning back!"

He grumbled and quickly changed back into a human. He fixed his black sleek hair, and cracked his knuckles. One minute.

[Amai Tenpi]

Amai could'nt stop a giggle from escaping her lips. Oops... She thought.

It could happen to anyone, though. It had happened once that her magnetic pull on animals had dragged a pit-bull into class, and her teacher's petrification of dogs didn't help the matter. She had jumped ontop of her desk and was throwing pencils at the large brown animal. She would have gotten detention had she not have taken the dog outside herself.

It was normal for a 'Marked' to lose it every once in a while.

Not always good, but normal.

Several boring moments later, the bell rang, making Mai jump. She quickly shoved her books into her little blue mesh bag and hurried out the door to her locker, which was directly left of the math room door.

[Ashi Mitsuki]

Ashi growled at the giggling girl.

"Hn, shifter."

He growled and got up at the bell. The best part of leaving, you could use your ability while in the halls or outside. Ashi changed into a panther again, and snapped his jaw around his backpack strap. He pounced off the desk, and onto the teachers.

"BOO!"

He growled, his whiskers perking up at the teacher. His fangs snapped together at his chuckling, and jumped off the desk, and stalked out the door to his locker. He changed back to a human and put his books away.

[Amai Tenpi]

Amai tilted her head at the shifter with the dark eyes as he stood at his locker. She smiled and tapped his shoulder in her normal quick, tappity way. She wore one of her biggest smiles.

"Hi!" She chirped.

[Ashi Mitsuki]

Ashi growled and slammed his locker shut, then with a small passing wind he was on his paws.

"What do you want?"

He growled, and staid on his toes, tail flicking back and forth.

[Amai Tenpi]

Mai stumbled backwards, startled, but then got on all fours.

"I can do something like that too!" She quirped.

She closed her eyes and her skin glowed bright, like you were staring right into the sun. A bright yellow color, that faded into white, before it cleared.

In the round-faced, black-haired, chirpy girls space now stood a long-legged, feathery pelted, angel-winged white wolf. The wolf's wings extended far above her body, and she streached them, showing pristine, flawless silver feathers.
Her fur was long and silky, and her tail wagged high in the air.
Mai's wolf form had an angelic aura about it, and her fur lit the hallway with bright light.


Amai let her tounge loll out of her mouth and panted.
"See!" She woofed

[Ashi Mitsuki]

"Jerk! Miss using them, by showing off. What kind of shifter are you?!"

Ashi's eyes squinted and he opened his jaw and roaring with anger, he stalked the white she-wolf.

[Amai Tenpi]

Mai's eyes widened. "Whaddaya mean? I didn't do it to be rude..." She shook her head and layed down on the cold floor of the school, ears back, in an attempt to show shemeant no harm.

One of the things that Amai hated the most was to BE hated. She would constantly go out of her way to help people so they would like her. For this reason, she was normally stepped on and used, because she didn't know any better.
Her attempts at friendship could sometimes bedescribed as clingy, and she knew she was, but she just hated making enemies.

"Gomen..." She woofed. "I didn't mean anything by it..." Her wings wrapped around her head and quivered.

[Ashi Mitsuki]

Ashi stood up straight in dominance, and h changed back, swinging his book bag over his shoulder.

"Hn!"

She growled, showing fangs, and strode down the hall.

[Amai Tenpi]

Amai watched him walk and took off at a lope after him, bringing her wings to her back to avoid head injuries to any of the other students.
"S-so!" She said, catching her breath at the same time, "W-what's your name? I'm Amai!"
Her light pink tounge fell out of her mouth.

[Ashi Mitsuki]

"Go away. You're worse than one of those leeches."

Ashi turned away and walked out of the school, sitting down on a patch of grass near a small lake.

[Amai Tenpi]

Mai watched him walk, ears plastered to the back of her head. She continued after him. The lockers got more and more beaten looking the farther she went.

Victims of road-rage, boredom and detention.

She kept going untill she reached the double doors. It was getting harder to breathe now, but she kept a steady gallop and kept running untill she reached his sitting place.

She lowered her stomach to the ground, her back in an 'S' shape almost. She crept forward one foot at a time, slowly and quietly untill she got next to him.

She layed her head next to his leg, ears still flat, and gave him a big, puppy-eyed look.

[Ashi Mitsuki]

"You sicken me."

His words coming out as a sharp sting.

"Do you think that you can buy friendship by begging your way into that person's life?! It's not that easy?!"

He turned his head and growled at her.

"That's not the way it works! OK?!"

His voice stayed as a ripping growl, and his back pack fell to the ground, he was gone. He'd turned into a water moccasin, and swam out to the middle of the lake.

[Amai Tenpi]

Mai pushed herself lower, lower, and lower still into the ground.
His words stung her like a million needles. She closed her eyes and pushed herself into a ball.
Her wings extended themselves and she covered her body with them.

Her head was hurting intensely, like tiny explosions in her skull.

[Ashi Mitsuki]

Ashi dove down into the water and snapped his jaw around a small fish them jumped out of the water as a bass. While still in the air he changed to an eagle and flew to a nearby branch. Pecking at his capture, under his sharp talons.

[Ashi Mitsuki]

Ashi finished up, and flew over the she-wolf's head.

"catch me if you can whitey!"

He screeched, and his talons grabbed at her scruff, pulling her up. Amazed at his own strength, he flew away waiting for her to follow. It was his lack of blood that made him so angry before. He still didn't like her like the rest, but he did feel fond of her.

[Amai Tenpi]

Mai's brown eyes flooded with life at the sound of the shifter's friendly challenge.

She extended her wings from her body and, with one strong wingbeat, she soared into the air.

She flew just behind the bird and nipped playfully at his tail feathers.

The sun beat down on the two of them, and Mai's wings shimmered like shards of glass.

(I SOOOO want to draw this scene!)

[Ashi Mitsuki]

Ashi's black eye flashed in the sun's light, and challenge appeared in them. Suddenly, out of nowhere, the grayish clouds turned black, and it began to pour. The drops felt more like bullets to Ashi's thin wings, and he quickly shifted into a sparrow.

"OH CRAP!!!"

Ashi sneezed once, and he turned back into his human form and began to fall. Since it was so cold out now, he couldn't change back, and he braced for a final fall.

[Amai Tenpi]

Mai had not expected the sudden weather, and was stunned when Ashi fell from the sky.

Amai nose-dived down and caught him on her back.

Her landing was not as gracefull.

She fell to the ground and hit her head on the grass.
"OWWWIEE!" She yipped.
