School yard brawl, confrontation with an angel???

It was morning within the school campus, The sky was blue with partly any clouds in the sky.There is a small breeze blowing into the place,the grass moves a little as did the trees.it wasn't a strong breeze but still enough to move it.Craig was early to arrive on class today.there was no one but the teacher looking nervously sitting at his own desk.Craig was thinking more and more on the past few days he went through.Event after event.Creatures and beings that were supposed to be make believe,unreal,fantasy and yet here they are.in this world battling each other to become god.Something Craig never wanted to be apart of.Slowly but surly his classmates entered the room scared deeply from his presence alone.Everyone but Lilly was in the class room as the teacher started to begin his roll call.What's different then usual is that Eve isn't with him today.

Craig(mind):h-how is everyone?

Eve(mind):doing alright master.

Cammy(mind):The three of us are trying to beat this game.tahakam ghabii alshaytan !!!

Craig(mind):p-please don't break anything.The reason why you guys are at home I-is because of that angel having a possibility being at m-my school.

Eve(mind):we promise not to break anything this time master.

Cammy(mind):VOUS DEVIL DAMN SALOPE!!! VOUS L'AVEZ FAIT EXPRESSÉMENT!!!

Eve(mind):Quit your whining!

Craig(mind):….

Craig:give me a break…

Craig whispers to himself making the classmates near him flinch. Then the door busts open as the person that arrived was Lilly panting with her hands on her knees.

Lily:h-here!

She continues to pant a tad bit as she was trying to catch her breath.

Lily:wow…so many stairs…I wish they gave me access to the dang elevator here…

Craig(mind):there wasn't that many stairs u-unless she was also talking about her a-apartment.

Craig:That's only used for the cripple.

The class flinches even harder as their face was drained of color from his words.It sounded like he was going to threaten her to break her leg's within their own minds.they truly have their own way of reading into what he says.

Lily:remind me…to get one when I can't walk…oh man.

Lily was standing up as Craig's eyes widened at what he see.On top of Lilly's head was a strange nine tailed fox.He didn't want the animal to know it was being watch as he just stares at lily instead.

Craig:…sit down

Kitsune was growling at Craig as he didn't flinch, if he reacted to them then he might get caught.he was looking around the room to see if anyone else can see the animal besides himself.from moving his head and eye balls slowly he analyzed the room.no one else is reacting to the animal making Craig to believe that this thing was a competitor.

Craig(mind):if I r-recall correctly from the b-book, that thing is a yokai, the nine tailed fox.but why is it on Lily's head?…Please don't tell me.

While Craig was thinking for a bit Kitsune was stil growling.

Kitsune(mind):permission to freeze this brute solid?

Lily(mind):What?! No! Don't do that, that's my friend!

Kitsune's eyes widened a bit.

Kitsune(mind):this man is your friend?!

Kitsune has calm down a bit but in complete shock at how this man could be her masters friend.

Lily:good morning Craig!

Kitsune:huh?!

Kitsune was even more taken back at her calling him Craig.This was the man she was talking about earlier.She wasn't joking that his appearance being intimidating.

Kitsune(mind):THAT'S CRAIG?!

Lily was taken a bit back from Kitsune's outburst.

Lily(mind):please stop yelling, it really hurts my head when you do that.

Kitsune looks a bit worried.

Kitsune(mind):I-I'm sorry master.

Lily(mind):it's ok.

Craig then started to look at the foxes neck, he sees the exact same collar that was used on eve and Cammy for the enslavement contract.

Craig(mind):th-this can't be happening.

Craig was doing his best to not let his nervous habit kick in.he needs to be calm, he needs to be collective, he can't freak out.

Craig(mind):c-calm down Craig…just calm down…you need to get those two back at the house, I-I can't let any harm get to her.

Craig watches lily sit down in a desk next to her.the fox seems to be eyeing him, he really wasn't comfortable with it but, the little fox was still adorable to look at.it was taking every ounce of his will power to not pet her.Some time later when class was going on Craig was looking at the board and memorizing everything the teacher has stated and what he can learn from America's history as a whole.

Teacher:and that is how the stock market crashed.

The bell rings.making all of the students to run out but lily and Craig who seems to walk together towards their next class.

Lily:it was so boring…no offense but it was hard to learn from a text book rather then a video.

Craig:makes sense considering your a visual learner.

Craig and lily continue to walk together as he can feel the foxes eyes on him.

Lily:that is true.

This was Craig's chance to ask her to go to his house, he would be able to talk to them in private and reveal himself as a competitor to lily and the fox.

Craig:…are yo-

Right as he was going to ask he heard clanging making all three of them to look ahead to see Steve was patting some poorly equipped knight on the back.It seems like the armored fellow was panting heavily.

Steve:if you're having trouble why don't you take that suit off?

Alcock:I appreciate your advice my lord but we could be ambushed at anytime.

Kitsune was growling as she was on all fours on top of Lily's head glaring him down.the knight and Steve looked at towards the noise.

Steve:a fox?

Alcock:Awwww, such an adorable creature.oh I could just eat it up.

Alcock was approaching the fox, as he was about to pet her Kitsune then jumps off of Lily's head and transformed to her anthro like state as she stands up in front of Alcock.her height barley towers over the knight by a whomping two inches apart of each other's height.

Alcock:…hmmm, my lord, I believe that this isn't a normal fox.

Craig(mind)/Steve:WHAT GAVE YOU THAT IDEA?!

Alcock:never fear, I know how to communicate with animals.

Kitsune raises a brow as Alcock brings out a random book from his pouch and begins to flip through the pages.the knight coughs a bit before saying the ancient texts for communication.

Alcock:skid a bop em dadem ring a ding ding-!

Before the knight could finish his…chant. Kitsune back hands the knight through the window of the 2nd story building making the knight land with a loud thud.Kitsune jumps out of the window after Alcock landing infront of the knight.Alcock gets up before shaking his head.Alcock grabs his book and looks at it.

Alcock:USELESS!

Alcock throws it away towards the nearby trash can.

Alcock:They were right when they said never believe everything you read.

Alcock draws his short sword and points at Kitsune with it.standing his ground as he stares her down.Showing his courage and determination to fight her.

Alcock:alright foul beast, have at thee!

Kitsune gave the knight an annoyed glare as she started to summon very sharp icicles around her aimed at Alcock.When he sees the icicles he feels like his own sword deflated upon seeing it.

Alcock:....I think this will take a moment.

While the fight issues Craig wonders how this was going to go, by the looks of it these two are Allie's with his friends.they have slave collars on them and everything.

Craig(mind):th-this isn't good, that angel could be around here while these two idiots duke it out.

Steve:holy shit.

Lily was going to say something but Craig grabbed both of their shoulders.Steve and lily looks up towards Craig as they see him staring outside of the school where Kitsune and Alcock were fighting.craig starts texting into their phones.

Craig:…get them to my house…

Steve's and Lilly's eyes widen at what he said as their phones got a message.

Steve:wait, you see this too?

Lily:don't tell me-

Craig:you two need to do it now, there's an angel around here, if she catches wind of this we'll all die.

Craig(mind):there are going to be friends of mine v-visiting.please don't do a-anything bad to them.S-Steve and Lily are with them.

Cammy(mind):ok master!

Eve(mind):we'll make sure they get a warm welcome.

Lily and Steve's eyes widened a bit as Craig started to walk towards the nearest staircase.During all that Alcock was jump rolling around, dodging the incoming projectiles.

Alcock(mind):how can I get near them if they keep on throwing projectiles?!

In the midst of rolling when he attempts to stand up he slips and fallen on his back spinning a bit, he realizes that the floor is covered in ice.Kitsune smirks at the unfortunate knight attempting to get back up a few times only to slip and fall.after his fifth attempt he stands back up and points his sword towards Kitsune.

Alcock:Enough with this sorcery and fight me like a man!

Alcock lowered his sword as he then looks up at the sky.

Alcock:or woman…well whatever people call themselves now a days.

Alcock shrugs as Kitsune glares a tad more.the sky was covered in clouds as snow begins to fall.

Alcock:snow? If I was alive I believed I would be chilled to the 'bone'.

Alcock chuckles at his own pun as he looks at Kitsune.Her eyes seems to be glowing as she folds her arms together.

Kitsune:I'll show you the true power of what yokai are capable of.

Alcock's sword begins to shine as he gets into position.chanting something under his breath.

Kitsune:for my family…

Alcock:for Great Britain and the young soon to be king…

Before they finish what they were going to say Lily and Steve gets infront of their servants.

Steve/Lily(minds):stop!

They look into their eyes, making sure they understand what their saying

Steve(mind):that's an order knight.

Lily(mind):please Kitsune, they are a friend of my friend!

Kitsune and Alcock stops for a moment till suddenly Kitsune picks up a smell.it was that same scent from yesterday, not the reptiles but Craig's and that weird scent that made her feel fearful yet at peace.

Steve(mind):listen, we are going somewhere together so you better behave.

Lily(mind):our pal has somewhere for us to go, is it ok if you don't attack them on the way? Please?

Kitsune:we don't have time to waste then.That smell is close by…

Kitsune(mind):and that human had the same smell as yesterday as well.without that disgusting Oder though…was he the same man that…

Lily tilted her head a bit as Steve and lily were picked up by their servants making Lily blush a bit and Steve in total shock.

Alcock:ONWARDS!!!

The two begin running and jumping a bit to lily and Steve's dismay.

Steve:WE HAVNT TOLD YOU GUYS WHERE IT IS!!!

As the two disappear into the city Craig was infront of a student.it appeared to be the same one Steve was with yesterday.Craig was leaning against the stair case entrance as the boy infront of him was shaking like a leaf.Craig continues to stare at him, analyzing him with his cold yet annoyed looking eyes.

Craig(mind):he's here yet the a-angel isn't around him yet…where could she be? This man was in a hurry to get here.

Craig:…aren't you supposed to be in class?

???:c-c-craig, what are you doing here?!

Craig stares at him for a moment as time stops, he begins to think.

Craig(mind):I'm a terrible lier so making some sort of excuse would backfire immediately…I can tell him it's non of his business though.he technically shouldn't be skipping class…I-I'm no better at the moment though.

Time resumes as Craig continues his cold stare.

Craig:it's non of your business kid, I highly suggest you go back to your class now.

???:wh-why should I go back?

The man did his best to look brave infront of Craig but his resolve was faltering as he can see that man shaking to the core from Craig just staring at him.

Craig:…because-

Time slows down again as he thinks to himself again.

Craig(mind):because there are two contestants fighting each other…yeah, that would most definitely put me in a bad position, ok, so-

As he was thinking a light begins to shine behind the boy infront of Craig.he continues to keep his eyes on the student infront of him as he doesn't want to get caught being one of them.

Craig(mind):w-what was that?! A light, no, is that the angel?!I was right about this then, him and the angel are working together but…

The figure was moving infront of the student as Craig gets a better picture of the angel infront of him.Her hair is long and white,she has green eyes with her physical appearance being 5'12 and a tad muscular.but not over showing to the point of notice.she seems to be having a white robe and petite white skin.she has gorgeous white wings and a halo.Lastly was a slave collar like eve and Cammy's is on her neck.

Craig(mind):wait, she's moving around yet everything else is still?!…wait, am I able to think this fast?!

The angel seems to look at Craig closely appearing to analyze him as his thoughts continue.To his surprise she started to tie his shoe laces together and giggles mischievously.Craig took a notice to that but decided to play along with it.The angel floats next to the man as craig decided to stop thinking and start talking as time resumes.

Craig:-there are severe consequences to our actions…you of all people should know that…don't you?

Craig slightly glares as the man infront of him shakes a bit before taking a step back, but what stops him was the angel putting her hand on his shoulder.Comforting him.

Angel:relax Marty, you'll be fine, just stand up to him, he'll back off once you stand your ground.

Marty looked at the angel in complete horror.

Marty:are you insane?! He'll rip me to shreds!!!

The angel smiled to comfort the student named Marty.But in Craig's eyes when he seen her smile it was that of a mischievous trickster.

Angel:I'm an angel remember, if he try's anything I'll take care of him.

Craig mentally shudders the thought on what she would do to him if given the order.Craig had taken everything accounted for and try's to do something.

Craig:are you mentally alright? Or do you talk to yourself?

Marty tenses up as he looks at Craig fearfully.

Angel:I guess he isn't a competitor considering how he's acting.

The angel giggles as Marty breaths in a bit and looks at Craig with intense resolve.he steps up to Craig and stares him down.he can tell the angel was waiting for him to do something with a sinister smile.

Marty:I'm….

He clenched his fist together Craig's eyes widened a bit, he started to see afterimages of what Marty might do.should he take the punch? If he dose that then the angel won't step in, but if he does so then he would be targeted by the school and be heavily bullied.should he dodge it? If he dose then he would trip on his own shoe lasses meaning more rumors about him that isn't true, something such as him being a coward that tripped on his own feet or someone that doesn't know how to tie his shoes.should he block it?it sounds like the optimal way to deal with it but if he dose so the angel might do something to him.He's completely cornered, up against a literal wall.Then, he thought of something, he had noticed his eyes before hand,their still shaking with fear.

Marty:going to go down these stairs to go outside!

Craig(mind):it sounds more like your skipping school but, I know exactly the reason.

Craig:you say that but your eyes are still shaking with fear.

Marty eyes widened as he steps back a bit, seeing that Craig was reading him like a book.

Craig:now your wondering how I'm reading you like a book…aren't you?

Marty's eyes widened even more as the angel looks at Craig in shock.the angel looks at Marty shaking as they both sense Craig's aura.it was fear inducing.even the angel sweated a bit from feeling the atmosphere of the room.

Craig:now, get back to class.Or I'll be taking you there myself…your choice.

Craig stares him down as he glares a bit.the angel was getting infront of Marty as if she was trying to shield him.he can tell that she's panicking a bit too.

Marty:R-Rey!

She stares him down as Craig raises a brow.

Craig:Rey?That's an odd name…Why would you be saying that as if someone was there?…by the look in your eyes, there in-fact is someone or something between us? Is it not?

The angels eyes widened a bit as she was in complete shock.by the look of her expression she seems to be going through some sort of thought process, trying to figure him out and how smart is he truly to put these pieces together.

Craig:actually, why not we test something?

Marty:t-test?

Craig:yes, evidence that proves to me that there is an outside force beyond our understanding.

Marty and Rey were taken aback by it, Craig looks into their reaction as disbelief.

Craig:when you were walking here you had a good look at my shoes correct?

The angels eyes widened at that statement, Craig can tell she was mentally freaking out.

Marty:y-y-yeah, what if it?

Craig:check again…something changed when we were chatting with each other.

Marty took a look of his shoes by trying to look past rey.his eyes widen a bit at seeing it.

Marty:the-their tied together?!

Craig:strange isn't it, at one moment they were fine, and then the next their tied together…and by how you were trying to look at my shoes you seemed to be moving your body to look past the object in front of you…strange isn't it?

Marty and the angel were freaking out from how much he processed in one chat.

Craig:…tch, how dose this sound, I'll let you past but you'll owe me something in return, a favor for a favor don't you think?

Marty looked like he was having a small panic attack while the angel kneels next to him trying to help him calm down.

Rey:master!

Craig(mind):I hate p-playing the bad guy here…but at th-this point I can get something in return from this…

Craig:so…do we have a deal?
