A NEW PACK
--------------------------------
      I woke around seven early that morning; getting dressed silently and pushing the chores out of the way. Azu was curled up against Midnights' paws and Eb had curled around him protectivly. I smiled. So cute. I thought, my world a little bit brighter. A snarl ensued from the door. I opened it and touched my stomach, mocking respect.
"Hey Saphirblih. Where's Ebonholtx and Mittennaught? Saphirblih, are you alright?" Vorsith asked; touching his abs and reaching towards me. I fell, muttering ang snarling. "What have you been doin now?" He inquired, his eyes quizzically worried. I blinked up at him and stole a few steps back. Why is it always me? Ebony walked over, her human being; of course; naked. Vorsith, knowing he'd already earned himself a few kicks when we got to school looked at the floor. "Good mournin, Ebonholtx. Is Mittennauht awake yet?"
Azu chose that time to wake up and come see what all the noise was about, looking from me to him and back; confusion written all over his small face. "Who's he?" He growled, sliding his arm around my shoulder protectively. I nodded at Vor. and slipped out of Azus' grip. "THis is Vorsith and this is Azu. You two play nice now." I smiled, walking out and dragging Eb with me. We dissappeared into the other room. "Do you think Vor. or Azu better? I like them both equal but Vor.s a little shady...." I whispered, winking at her and smiling knowingly.
"Well I think Vors intentions are to protect the good of our pack and Azu wants to be learned of our ways so I have to say Vor. Ask karen and Mitten too..." She replied, winking and frowning; deep in thought. I walked out and grabbed my bag, running out the door and racing off to the town square. "So invigorating." I whispered, breathing calmly despite my running four miles. The buildings were different here. Amina High was a new beginning. I walked up the steps proudly, not caring what the locals thought of me, as far as they ere concerned, I was a ghost. I passed the office and walked into a dark looking classroom. The teacher looked up and smiled at me.
"Ahh. Saphir, please be seated. Graham, show her our project and you two are partners." I rolled my eyes slightly and followed the six foot even giant to a clean table in the back, dropping my bag on it and smiling at him warmly. "So where ya from?" His voice was throaty, southern and sweet. Vey nice. "Transfer. Been here since last night. You a local?" I asked, my eyes flashing quietly. He stared for a moment at my eyes then nodded, a smile creeping across his lips. "Great, can you help me wih something?" I sat down and ducked my head, a spitwad hitting the wall where my head was. I turned and snarled at the girl who shot it. "Do it again, I dare you." She stuck her tongue out at me and I whipped outr of my seat, grabbing her and growling at her. "You try that again and I'll cut it out, got that rookie? Anyone else wanna start it with me?" I shouted, glaring icily at the entire room.
She gulped, the teacher looked at me and winked. "Please come up here and tell us a little bit about yourself Saphir." I winked back, climbing onto the table and smiling mischeiviously. (Sp?) "My name is Saphir, I came her for one reason: To bond with a few of you and make my past learned. If you are scared of me, good. If not, you will become soon enough." I sat on top of it and swung my legs idly. Graham walked up to me and whispered in my ear.
"Ahh, I see. What a bore it must be. I live on my surroundings. Don't expect me to invite you to a party at my house or anything like that. I live in the forests of this country, going where I please and showing up amng you when I feel the need to. I have one traveling companion and she has been with me since the accident that stole my family." I whistled and watched as a few kids gasped. Ebony had climbed into the window, and was now standing beside me, snarling at all the kids. "Shh, Eb. Calm down. THey mean you no harm. This is Ebony, she's still a wild animal. She will attack you if provoked and she enjoys playing with her food before she eats it."
I smiled, pulling out my lighter and my calvary sword, lighting it and holding it against her neck, letting her lick the blade. "See, she's harmless. Mr. Crookshanks, I would like to say that I will enjoy being in this class with all these bright young kids, as long as my companion stays with me. She goes, I go." I got onto her back and ran to the back, whistling. "Ohh for she was my mother once, I took her under my wing. She kept me safe at night, when I couldn't sing."
The kids laughed nervously and gasped when she rubbed against a boys leg, purring softly. "Name?" "B-Br-Brandon. What's se doing?" She stopped and looked at me, her eyes watery. "She wantsyou to pet her. Go on." I said, smiling at him and getting off. He nervously reached out and she took hold of his hand, nibbling on it lightly.
"She likes you. That's strange. Most animals hate Brandon." Graham said and several kids nodded. "Hmm...Ebony, watcha think?" She let go of him and licked my face, leaving a scorth mark. I pointed to a scar under my left eye. "See this?" He nodded, terrified and stark white. "Pyro swords. I almost cut out my eye. THis is very dangerous and I don't want anyone gettin any ideas from me. I can handle everything." I cried, taking the sword, lighting it again and swallowing it.
