“Hey, Ukiyo, what happened to you?” Drayce asked, as he wondered why I look dreadful this morning. I still made it on time in class. Lucky me, Kurai teleported me here with no one noticed us.

“What do you mean, nothing? Did you not sleep well?”
“I sleep. But- I’m fine, okay?” I looked away, looking outside the glass closed window. I am trying to feel my new tongue and still feel weird. Having a forked tongue, I can feel like a snake.

His inner clothes were black and gold that highli
The early sun filtered through the clouds, signaling the beautiful morning, birds chirping. The students arrive through the gates, hustling and bustling down the corridors.
