Chapter 13 - Chapter 13

As I tried to catch up with Kitsune I could feel the very electricity in the air getting thick and stale. (How the hell is she doing this? It's getting harder to move and see.) I tried to call out her name but nothing escaped my lips. I managed to reach her room but it was hassle trying to knock on her door. "GO AWAY!" "Hey Lil' Fox, I just wanted to talk to you and see how you're doing. Can we talk real quick?" "NO! Go and be with that Harlet!" "Whoa, Lil' fox such lanague. Why are you mad at Yoko anyway?"

"I'M MAD AT YOU AND HER!" "What did we do? I'm so confuzzled." "I saw you two talking down at the shore and you two hugged and kissed!" "Back up back up for a minute we never kissed. Yes we hugged and she gave me a friendly French kiss on the cheek for helping her..." "SO YOU DID KISS HER!" "No silly, she kissed both my cheeks as a show of friendship for helping her with her feelings with Ace." "Wait, what?" "Yeah, Yoko has feelings for Ace she didn't pursue him because she assumed you and him had a thing for each other so she came to me for advice." Kitsune slightly creaked open the door as she looked at me with tears still filling her eyes. "So....I was a being a huge cry baby and a bitch for no reason?" "Hmm, I wouldn't use those words myself but yeah more or else. I wanted to return this to you." I held out the journal she had dropped Kitsune quickly snatched to journal back and hid it behind her back.

"Did you see anything on it?" "Just a spider." "Thanks for returning it and I wanted to say I'm sorry for acting like the way I did. Also, would you um perhaps like to attend the Festival of Dreams with me tonight?" I smiled a bit as I put a hand on her head. "You're welcome, it's all good no harm no foul; I'd love to go with to the Festival of Dreams." "Good, I'll see you at the festival later." "Sure lil' fox." I ruffled her hair and walked away. (He's such an odd character, but he's my odd character.) I walked away from Kitsune's room when I ran face first into this mysterious girl I fell flat on my ass. "Ow, what the hell did I run into?" "My bad darlin' I'm new here and got lost trying to find the bathroom." The mysterious girl held out her hand and I took it as she helped me to my feet. "Don't worry about it I've had worse from Yv'Storm the past 5 months."

I looked up to see a beautiful woman with dreads as her deep green eyes pierced my soul and she had tattoos and a two piercings a septum piercing and two snake bites she had fair light skin black tone of skin. "No problem. I'm sorry I ain't get yo name. My name's Arctora'hm. But my friends call me Tora." "Sorry I'm...." "IYINI!" A little boy came running up to us and hugged her legs. "I found you. I was worried about you. Where'd you go?" "That's sweet you was worried about me. I had to go to the bathroom Vinni that's when I ran into Mister Arctora'hm here." I knelt down and to eye level to the kid. "Hi, I'm Arctora'hm. It's nice to meet you. What's your name?" The kid hid behind the girls legs. "Sorry about that he's shy and kind of mistrusting of new people. He's Vinnichi and I'm Iyini." "Well it's nice to meet you Vinnichi I held out my hand for him to shake. Vinnichi looked at my hand and back up at Iyini she just nodded with her smile that it was okay. He ran up to me and shook my hand then next thing he's hugging my leg. "I um, what do I do. He won't let go. " I tried to pry him off my leg. "How is this kid so strong what do you feed him Sharks?" I tried to shake him off my leg but that ain't work. "Sorry, you're the first person he's done this to on first contact well other than me. Vinnichi leave Arctora'hm alone and let go of his leg. "But his vibe is protector." "Protector or not it's not okay to randomly cling to someone we just met we talked about this last time before after we were rescued didn't we!" "Yes, you're right I'm sorry Arctora'hm." Vinnichi let go of my leg and returned to Iyini side. "Can you point us to the dorms?" "Girls dorms are this way." I jammed my thumb behind me. "I'm on my way to guys dorm if you want Vinnichi you can follow me to your room."

"Well actually, Vinnichi will be staying in the dorm with me. He can't sleep by himself without me just yet." "Oh well okay, Oh by the way are two coming to Festival of Dreams tonight?" "What's that?" "It's this festival that happens during the beginning of Winter it's hosted by this mysterious person they call the "Silver-Eyed One" They host it every year in a different location for Homo-Elites and this year it's going to be in Collinen City. It's plenty of games, food, and children Vinnichi age he could get along with." "Well..." "Can we go please, please, please!" "Do we have to dress up?" "Not necessarily but it's not opposed against either." "Okay, we'll go but we're new here." "Don't worry me and my friends are going so just meet us at the main entrance at 8." "Okay, thanks." "I gotta go see y'all later! It was great meeting you!" I dashed passed Iyini and Vinnichi and headed back to my room. Iyini facepalmed herself. "Gah! I forgot to ask him where can I find the room I was looking for." "Ahem." Iyini and Vinnichi turned back around to see a petite native American, Japanese girl with burn scars on her face and alternative punk rock clothing mixed with Japanese pop culture and feathered Earrings.

"Oh hi sorry are we in your way?" "Not necessarily no I came out of my room to see what the fuss was about. So who are you two?" "Oh I'm sorry; well I'm Iyini and this is my little brother Vinnichi we were told to come here and I was looking for room 253 but got distracted." "Well first off the boys room is on the other end. Number two that's my room. Thirdly, distracted by what? the scenery?" "Well I'm sorry but Yv'Storm told me that me and Vinnichi were going to be living together in the room with you and he doesn't do well in new places without me. No I got distracted by this cute boy I think his name was Arctora'hm." Kitsune's eyes flared with an ice cold stare as she heard that name uttered from her lips. "I don't do children so that's already a no go." "I wouldn't do tha....Kitsune put her hand on one of Vinnichis' shoulder and that's when Vinnichi reacted and pushed her away as his eyes began to glow and a powder emitted from the fungai that had began to sprout from Kitsune's touch. Kitsune began to cough and felt dizzy as she fell to her knees. "I DON'T LIKE YOU! YOU'RE MEAN TO MY SISTER!" "Vinni stop it! It's okay!" Kitsune's throat began to close up as she gasped out loud trying to catch some air. Iyini started to run over to Vinnichi when he sensed her presence and held out his hand as moss and vines started to wrap around her and appear on her body.

That's when all of a sudden Vinnichi fell out and the fungai and powdery started to fade away and dissipate and the vine retreated back into the ground and moss vanished. (Target neturalized and sedated. It is now safe to aid Miss Kitsune in recovery.) Ace ran over to Kitsune and picked her up as his nanites began to scan her and Vinnichi. "Thanks for that." Ace just nodded his head and opened a digital wormhole. (The preparation for the emergency toxicology has been complete and now ready for Miss Kitsune.) Ace began to walk to the wormhole and stopped that's when he slightly turned his head his eyes were a Neon Blue and white and voice a blend of himself and the nanites. "The next time your brother tries to kill one of our friends wether it be intinal or not we will make him part of the Codex and that's a promise." Ace walked into the wormhole it began to close after he stepped through it. Iyini ran over to Vinnichi and picked him up and carried him into a nearby room.
