Tay: Momo sat in the middle of the room streacheing. She'd forgone her usual pigtails for one long ponytail. Humming otherself she stood up and raised her hands over her head. her crystal orbs shone with excitement as she gazed around the club. She really rather be in the art room but...she had to come here. Standing there in a tank top that left her midriff exposed and low riding grey sweatpants she placed her hands on her hips and sighed as she looked around the room. A few people were streching and limbering up. Momo was feeling a bit hyper as she stood against the wall and tapped her foot on the floor and huffed as she crossed her arms over her chest. Another student walked up to Momo, and noticing her tapping foot he asked her. "Do you uh.. wanna spar?" he asked and Momo's face lit up and she nodded. "Okay!" Following him to the middle of the floor, they both fell into thier respective fighting stance and readied themselves. "Ready?" he asked across the floor. "GO!" Momo yelled as she yelled as she rushed him. He readies himself for an attack that never came. As Momo got close to him she had dashed to his left. Attacking his side with a roundhouse kick using her left leg. Momo gapsed as he grabbed her foot, she hesitated for a second then she pushed off the floor with her other foot and struck him across the face with the heel. He grunted and staggered backwards.

Momo landed on her back as he held his jaw, Momo had cut his lip. Wiping the blood away he looked at Momo who had gotten up. Holding his fists up in front of himself he assumed a boxing type stance. He ran up on Momo who attempted to jump backwards but her grabbed her long hair and tugged her to him slamming his knee into her gut, she coughed and fell to her knees as he backed off. Moena spent a few seconds gasping for air before she lunged at him and tackled him to the floor. Standing up she wiped her hands on her pants. He qucikly swiped her feet out from under her but Momo swung her arm up as she fell catching him in the jaw. He staggered backwards as Momo crashed to the floor. Still winded from the knee to the stomach Momo stayed down longer. As both of them struggled to get up, he made it up first and held out a hand to Momo. "Great fight." He said as he pulled Momo up, she nodded and leant over trying to atch her breath. "Yeah...next time no knees to stomachs." She took a deep breath of air, and rubbed her stomach. "Sheesh..."

Ryoji: As the karate class would’ve begun to seemingly hustle and bustle cho would’ve walked in rather late this time around. He’d make his way through the floor and into the changing rooms of the dojo like class room. Dropping his pants and ditching the shirt only to exchange it for a white krate gi and white karate pants. His outfit traditional, as you only get to customize your outfit when you reach a certain rank in school. Cho emerged from the dressing room and watched the student who just received a class 1 asswhoping from the pink haired girl and he chuckled a bit. “Heh. Noob.” He began to take a seat on the mat, rubbing his temples a slight bit. As he did this, he furrowed his brow as his head was hurting ever so slightly…he’d been having what seemed like waking nightmares, constantly getting visions of a wolf chasing after him and maming him. All he ever did was run from this wolf…was it a symbol or premention of what he needed to do to…tame this beast within?

All of this would’ve had to have waited as the Karate instructor walked in onto the mat of the classroom. He had a commanding pescence about him, his hair was a light lavender, and he had two different colored eyes: one red and one blue. He wore a blue track suit with no shoes and spoke with conviction. “Class fall into lines and stand. We’ll be doing the usual partner up sessions today. We’re skiping kata practice. The country tournament is going to be here before any of us know it and we need to be as ready as ready can get.”

Cho stood up and held his purple belt in his hands. Yes for all of his Yakuza and marital training with Connor and other experiences, he still lacked a belt that properly ranked his experience as it was supposed to be. That being said, he took it in stride and stood there nodding to the instructor’s directions. He was about to continue when suddenly the door proceeded to…open and another student walked in.

The male walked in standing 6ft tall with red hair and golden eyes. Apart from his golden eyes and wild red hair, he is the splitting image of his older brother. He wore a black leather jacket, with a red undershirt and balck jeans with boots to match. He's rather skinny but his body has Hella muscle definition. He stands six feet even at full height and despite his small body size he has a large amount of presence. “Sorry I’m late. The trip to the restroom took longer than I thought it would teach.” “Don’t let it happen again Ruji.” Ruji would’ve walked across the mat, making sure to walk directly infront of Momo after having been missing for about a week now. His eyes would’ve met with hers, and he’d have tilted his head up at her a bit, giving her a slight wink and making his way into the locker room to change clothes. He didn’t much say a word to her, namely because he knew the teacher would’ve had a fit here so he kept it quiet. He emerged in his karate gi as well and as he did the teacher would’ve spoken out.

“Alright people. Don’t let my age fool you. I’m still a better fighter than any of you here so practice hard. I can’t lead this entire thing by myself. Partner up and spar, gloves and head gear are in the corner where they always are.”

the students would’ve either had a choice to partner up with a familiar face or a random person (NPC) and have a brief 3 minute spar with them before being made to change partners. Ruji would’ve held out a hand and extended it to momo using his finger to gesture her to come and be his partner. She’d probably have a question or two as to his whereabouts but everything about him seemed the same as when they left from his touch to his height and scent..

Tay:  Moena sat down as the teacher called for everyones attention. As she sat on the mat she pulled her knees to her chest and wrapped her arms around them. Resting her chin on her hands she watched the instructor whom stood tall and dominaeering and had heterochromia. Moena stared at his eyes and thought to herself which eye was weaker. “Class fall into lines and stand. We’ll be doing the usual partner up sessions today. We’re skiping kata practice. The country tournament is going to be here before any of us know it and we need to be as ready as ready can get.” Moena nodded and pushed herself up she yawned softly. Moena didn't look it but she was a scrappy little thing. You can usually tell when someone has been throughtly fucked up by Moena becuase they have fust sized burn marks on them.

As the door to the class opened, Moena turned her head with the rest of the class to see who it was. As he walked it Moena let out an auadlabe gasp. It was Ruji, he had left telling Moena to wait for him and that he'd be back one day. She didn't think he'd be back soon. As he passed her stared at him in complete confusion. “Alright people. Don’t let my age fool you. I’m still a better fighter than any of you here so practice hard. I can’t lead this entire thing by myself. Partner up and spar, gloves and head gear are in the corner where they always are.” As Ruji extended his hand to Momo and the class broke into chatter she took it and burst into questions. "Where dod you go?! What did you do?? DID YOU BRING ME BACK SOMETHING? TELL ME!!!" She practially screeched at him as she darted around him grabbing his arm and various other parts of him and pulling on them like a kid with a new toy. Moena was too busy darting around Ruji and asking him  endless questions and poking him to actually start sparring.

Eclipse Maiden: Yuki stared at her schedule and frowned. Karate? Really? With a heavy sigh, she trudged her ass to the Dojo and frowned at the sight of many individuals in the room. She caught sight of Moena and Cho, cursing under her breath. She moved past the crowd and went to change. She didn't exactly enjoy wearing the traditional karate gi, so she just brought out what she normally trained in: a form fitting, Nykee black sports bra that kept her boobs from bouncing too much, and a matching pair of sleek onyx shorts that fell low on her hips and ended mid-thigh. She wrapped herself, beginning at her forearms and working her way up to her fingertips on both arms, and then doing to same to her ankles. She pulled her hair up into a ponytail and a few strands of hair and feathers framed her face. She flexed her fingers and rolled her ankles, yawning softly before she went back out there, throwing a loose teal jacket on, catching most of everyone’s attention.

She fell into line, a small pout formed on her lips as the instructor told them all of today’s agenda. And then Ruji walked in out of nowhere. Blah blah blah, bathroom excuses. With a heavy sigh, she popped her neck and then turned to the right, catching a tall guy with blonde hair and blue eyes. Nazi.

“Looks like you need a sparring partner. I'm Quincy. Quincy Aldebanaron. I'll go easy on you, eh?” He spoke in a teasing tone but Yuki was all serious when it came to spars. It was quick but she sent a jab of her right hand into his face and knocked him out cold.

And then a girl stalked up to Yuki, looking like a tomato with her green hair and red face. “WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM!” I glared at her and frowned. “He wanted a spar. Didn't take me seriously… What's your fucking problem?” Tomato girl swung and Yuki caught her wrist and sent her first flying at her head too, but this time, her knuckles snapped against the girl’s temples and sent her to the ground, crying out in pain

“Whoopsies.. Gomenasai…” Yuki puffed her cheeks out and crossed her arms under her breasts. I wanna fight someone good…

Ryoji: ::Ruji: As momo began to act really frantic about the situation Ruji couldn’t help but place a hand on his stomach and laugh out loud a little bit, at her guestures. “Calm down Rainbows. It was a stick situation. I thought I was getting shipped off to the military but eh.” He shrugged. “Not my style after all. I’m back for good this time.” He held her hand tightly and pulled it out, only to bring their bodies closer together, lightly letting the tip of his nose press against hers. He looked at her with narrow gold hues, and as he spoke the whisper of his lips left the feel of his breath tingling against her lips. “I’ll tell you more about it later when we’ve got some up close and personal time…as a matter of fact…we could probably get some of that after I kick your ass around the mat a little bit.” Ruji gave her a fanged smirk before playfully pushing off of her and taking a few steps back. As he did this he’d put up a small time Karate guard, with his left arm tucked by his side and his right one extended. His hands cladded in red rubber gloves as he gestured for Momo to come at him with all she had. “Show me how mad you are at me for ditching you Rainbows.”

Cho::
“TUYAAA!”  Cho threw  a single elbow strike dead into the center of his opponents chest. His right elbow extended outwards, and the back of his fist resting against his chest as he blasted his opponent to the mat. Using only a fraction of his strength of course but even then as he looked at his fellow student he saw a rather large brown bruise in the area he stuck. He quickly looked away holding his arm and cursing under his breathe. “Dammit…I have to get this strength under control…if I don’t I’ll hurt people. Last thing I want OR need at this point…” he bowed to his opponent and the instructor would’ve flicked his nose with his thumb observing Cho.

“Somethings…off about him today. He’s not one to hurt classmates…hmm…” that’s when he saw Yuki’s glorious demonstration going on over at mat and he came up with a brilliant idea all of his own design. “Yuki. Cho. Square up and spar with one another. She’s fierce and your defensive. Learn from one another, I’ll be front running you both at the district tournament.” Cho laughed a bit and walked up to Yuki offering her a handshake. “Well looks like you might beat me into hunger for that bento box I hope you still have for me.” Cho would’ve taken a few steps back being 5 feet away from her taking the same base karate stance that Ruji had taken and smiling. “Ossu! Give me all you got!” Cho held fast.

Something funny to mention however is that Yuki during her fight with the girl would’ve now been able to see a very small visible cut on her forearm. It didn’t even break skin all that deeply but it was so miniscule she more than likely wouldn’t feel it until she looked at it.

Tay: “Calm down Rainbows. It was a stick situation. I thought I was getting shipped off to the military but eh.” She stopped and touched her hand to her lips. "DID YOU DITCH?" She screeched at the top of her lungs.“Not my style after all. I’m back for good this time.” Momo narrowed her eyes at him. "You better be." she threatened. As he pulled them closer Momo face flushed a deep red. She stiffened up and stared at him, and as he spoke about him telling ehr more later she stepped back and brushed herself off trying to hide the evident blush on her face. As the tips of thier noses touched Momo began to studder "Well....I Uhm...YOU SEE..." She trailed off and poked her fingers together. She kinda tuned him out as she stared at him. She couldn't believe he was back. "-after I kick your ass around the mat a little bit.” Momo's eyes narrowed her blue orbs burning slightly in anger. "Wait what? Excuse me?" She said. "I can fight for myself thank you." She said crossing her arms over her chest and huffing. Ruji pushed away from her and fell into his stance Momo took a few steps back but did not really fall nito her own stance.

Eyeing Ruji Momo dashed to Ruji's right, and charged him from his right. Balling her left hand into a fist she rushed him but as she came upon him she stopped and swung herself around to attempt to get behind him. Is she did she'd swing her left arm into his ribcage just about where his eblow should be. If that hit she'd swing her right arm into his other side in the same spot. After she'd jump onto his shoulders and with her tighs resting on his shoulders she'd wrap her legs under his arms and lock her ankles across each other on his lower back. Throwing her upper body backwards, as they fell Momo would extend her arms over her head and fall on them like a handstand. Her body following she'd slam Ruji into the mat on his stomach and his arms wuld be pinned under the wieght of her body, with his elbows pinned behind her knees and pressed between her thigh and calves. She sit on him like this as she squeezed his arms in her legs. "Yeah, Im pretty angry." she said thoughtfully.

Ryoji: Ruji would’ve watched as Momo attempted to move to his right side. Ruji’s eye sight was pretty keen being a wolf blood and all he was able to keep up with her relatively easily. This didn’t discern from the fact that she was actually pretty damn fast. When she came in for the first of her two punches, Ruji would’ve taken the hit to his side, testing her merit. It hurt somewhat but he’d taken significantly worse impacts. When she came in with the second hit, she’d be in Ruji’s sight almost perfectly and that being said he’d lower himself down on one knee, allowing her arm to come close to hitting him in the head but pulling a reversal he’d grab her attacking right arm with both of his hands in a tight and almost inhuman grip. With her arm straightened out over his shoulder, he’d lift himself up and push his upper body forward in a bend and in doing so he’d over the shoulder flip Momo onto her back on the mat of the floor! The impact would’ve caused all of the air in her lungs to shoot straight out from her body! A nice little bruise resting on the center of her back and if this was successful she’d be stunned for about a good minute trying to get her diaphragm back in track. Ruji would’ve squatted down over her, his head now upside down to her own head as he leaned forward enough for his red locks to tickle her face a bit as he gave her that trademark smirk he abused so much. “Mmmmm you weren’t that mad at me at all were you Rainbows.” Ruji would’ve ran his tongue down her face starting at her temple and moving all the way down to the base of her chin before standing up and cracking his knuckles. “Come on warm me up. I left you out of nowhere without so much as a word.. I’m starting to think you really DIDN’T miss me.” He’d groan rubbing the back of his neck and closing his eyes while doing so…off guard perhaps…over overconfident.

Eclipse Maiden: Yuki's head turned as the instructor called her name and told her to pair up with Cho. To be honest, she really wasn't feeling this class, but at least Cho would keep her busy. She gave him a firm handshake and a small smile with a tilt of her head. "Don't worry... I have yours."

[ https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=shUjXGwIMaA ]

Yuki leveled up with Cho and became exactly parallel of him, slipping into a loose stance where she'd bend as easy as tall grass in the wind. Her right foot slipped out in front of her and she put all pressure on her left leg that stayed back. Her right foot arched up to where she looked to be pushing up onto the ball of her foot and her eyes flashed to a vibrant ruby red from the normal cotton candy pink and she threw herself forward, keeping herself low and had attempted to knocked Cho off balance even just a bit by ramming her elbow into his side, below his ribs. It wouldn't be hard enough to leave a bruise, but it'd sting him. Should this go through or not, she'd have simultaneously hook her right foot around his left and drag it forward in attempt ruin his stance even more before attempting to drive her right hand's knuckle into his solar plexus and then push him away with a shove, using her shoulder as the main enforcer.

Tay: Momo smirked to herself as her first hit connected, but as she swung her fist at him for the second hit he caught her arm and flung her over his shoulder into his mat. As her back impacted into the mat her eyes went wide as the air was knocked out of her. She gasped and clutched at her throat for air as her lungs struggled to recover thier oxygen. As the Ruji leaned over her and smirked she continued to gasp for air. His red hairs tickling her face she managed to get her breathing back to normal but was still panting heavily,  “Mmmmm you weren’t that mad at me at all were you Rainbows.” Moena inwardly was furious at him. But as he cracked his knuckles and began to talk again  “Come on warm me up. I left you out of nowhere without so much as a word.. I’m starting to think you really DIDN’T miss me.” Moena suddenly sat up. Assuming that he was still hunched over her her forehead would've slammed right into his. If it hit, he'd be dazed just long enough for Moena to roll out from under him and push herself on her feet. Not to mention he'd have a big lump on his head for the rest of the day. As she rolled away from Ruji she looked at him and grimaced, her own head hurt from that move but not as much as his had to. "No. Im pretty mad." She said as she ran at him again before he could recover and attempted to sweep his legs out from under him, causing him to fall on his back. If she did get him on it his back she'd sit on his chest and poke his nose. "Rainbows isn't pleased."

Ryoji: ::Cho::

Cho would’ve stood and watched as her posture began to shift in place. She advanced towards him but not by much. He could see her footwork coming in as to where she came in with her elbow out attempting to take his rib cage and jam it inwards. Cho could see it but her movement was rather quick not giving him enough room to closely counter such a maneuver as he took the hit to his rib cage and his right eye closed for a second. He winced at the impact as it did sting a bit but he wouldn’t let it get to him to much. He didn’t know what Yuki was capable of but so far she was showing some pretty god promise. When she hooked her left foot around Cho’s right and began to drag it back towards her Cho found his body being shifted of balance. After his fight with Connor however he’d learned that he was much more agile than he could ever give himself credit for! Using this to his advantage he’d lean his own body back while his leg was being pulled forward resulting in a make shift matrix dodge which served two purposes: one to avoid the punch she had aimed at his solar plexus and to, to use the momentum from his bend to to bring his left left up in a perfect arch and WHAM!!! The kick would’ve impacted the side of Yuki’s neck in a counter attempt! Specifically the right side of her nack as if it connected her head and entire body would’ve fallen horizontally over to her left side.

The side of her head hitting the ground first would’ve been a god awful impact that would’ve caused a serious bruise on the side of her head and disoriented her enough for a few seconds letting her see actual “stars.” As this happened Cho would’ve landed on his back only to kick himself up with hands cupped over his mouth. “Oh my god…I am so…SO sorry Yuki! Fuck!” Cho looked at his hands for a moment before clenching his fist and snatching the gloves off of his hands and tossing them onto the ground. He looked over at the mirror in the room…and saw his yellow hues in reflection. “I need to be excused…” Cho took off out of the classroom door making his way down the hallway to the nearest bathroom where he’d begin splashing water on his face and running his hands through his hair to try and get some clarity.

Meanwhile back with Yuki she’d notice that the attack Cho threw while it did knock her down (if it was successful)…didn’t hurt. In fact she felt it but no true pain from it. Even the bump that should’ve been on the side of her head would’ve been…non existent. She’d begin to feel a bit of a phantom pain from the small scar she’d received earlier on but nothing serious. It would only draw her attention to it. However when she would look back up Yuki would’ve seen two females in Karate Gi’s covering their mouths and laughing at here. One blonde and one brunette. They began to whisper things like ‘Wow what a fucking freak.” “I bet she sucks off all the boys with dark hair and pretty eyes.” “I Know right? Who just has big tits like that?” these women were talking blatant shit in front of Yuiki as they thought she couldn’t hear them…but she’d be able to. What’s worse is that Yuki would’ve felt a sudden rage overcoming her being and heard a feint voice in her head.

“You gonna let them talk to you like that? A couple of uppity white bitches with no meat on their bones? Clearly they need an attitude adjustment…give them one.”

Yuki would then feel an overwhelming urge…to attack the both of them seemingly for no reason other than the fact that the cut on her arm would’ve been irritating her so much so to where with the combined agitation of the girls she’d become rather…violent.-c-

Ryoji: ::Ruji:: Ruji would’ve remained hovering over Momo with that smug look on his face…until he was met with a  forehead to forehead contact. Ruji’s head shot upwards  and he’d let his head lean back. “Damn that shit hurt. ”He thought to himself as he stood himself up rubbing his forehead with closed eyes rubbing the area. He was durable sure but he wasn’t on guard. In fact he’d thought he’d won but clearly that wasn’t the case…and he never met a female who openly head-butts people. When he stood up however he only got to hear momo say "No. Im pretty mad." Before he was swept off of his feet and not in the loving way. A leg trip sent his tall frame down to the mat on his back. As he blinked a few more times almost dumbfounded at the fact she’d taken him down he’d feel her sitting on his chest and poking his nose. "Rainbows isn't pleased." Ruji chuckled, nodding his head and licking his fangs. “Aight I’ll give you that one.”

The instructor looked at his watch seeing progress around the room before he yelled. “Time. 20 minute breaks all the round be back here on time. Ruji, I’m looking at you.” Ruji sat up quick throwing momo off his body and back onto the floor. “Aye aye bruh.” Standing up he’d brush himself off and hold his hand out to Momo. “Let’s go somewhere with less flesh.” He’d smile and if she took his hand he’d begin leading them out of the training room and outside. About a few feet out they’d make their way to the equipment shed, ruji jimmying the lock and breaking it’s hinges before opening the door and slinging momo inside. Using his strength to a dominant advantage he’d have slung her against the solid wall of the room while shutting the door at the same time. In doing this he’d slam it so hard it’d literally become stuck. “No interruptions this time…no early good byes. Just me and you Rainbows. You’ve been good while I’ve been gone…right?”  the entire time he said this,  Ruji began approaching her one step at a time. He was much taller than she as he placed a hand above her shoulder and beside her head against the wall, before using his other hand to place tender fingers on the lower half of her face, pulling her into a passionate kiss. Slightly rushed as if she let him, his tongue would’ve made lustful strokes across her own, almost perfectly reenacting the first kiss they had that night at the dance. If the kiss was accepted his hand moved from her face to the top of her white tank top. A playful finger poking at it…before the subtle slip of a claw began to tear the tank top in half perfectly and the center of the bra should she be wearing one. Letting her breast emerge he’d pull away from the kiss, a thin line of saliva hanging from the space between their tongues. He’d motion his head down and savagely attack her exposed pink nipple on the left, lapping his tongue full circle around the pink flesh before clamping his lips down on it and sucking it as if waiting for a river of milk to pour out.

When the break was initiated Yuki would have a choice of attacking the girls in class or in private to where she’d have no holds barred to do as they pleased. The girls were in the locker room gossiping and resting.  Momo on the other hand could choose to go with the flow or nah. Should she chose to Sexual Content shall progress from this post forward.
-e-

Tay: She was tossed off of him and landed roughly on the mat, "Okay sheesh..." Momo said as she pushed herself up into a sitting position. Rubbing the back on her head she saw Ruji's hand and took it pulling herself up. As he said something about going somewhere with less flesh she looked at him as if he was stupid. "Less flesh? What the fuck does that mean?" she asked him as he began dragging her out of the room and to the outside. "Ruji where are we going?" She asked as he kept pulling her along, until they came on a shed. As Ruji began messing with the lock Moena looked around and before she knew what was happening she was basically thrown into the shed.  "Ruji really?" Moena said, "If you were that upset about loosing-" she stopped when he slammed the door literally so hard it might've gotten stuck. "Uh Ruji...it's not that big a deal..." she muttered. “No interruptions this time…no early good byes. Just me and you Rainbows. You’ve been good while I’ve been gone…right?” "Wait what?" Moena whimpered out as Ruji approached her. She looked up at him as she realized what was happening.

Momo blushed heavily as Ruji kissed her so forcefully. She slid her hands into his hair and bit his bottom lip softly. His hands poke at her top of her tank top. As he tore at her tank top she bit his lip a bit harder this time to show her disapproval at him tearing her shirt. As Ruji pulled away from her she turned her face away from him gaze. As his mouth matched on her nipple Moena tangled her hands in his hair and tugged lightly, biting her lower lip she threw her head back and moaned out his name. "Ruji...." she whimpered as she leaned heavily on the wall as she pulled at his hair. After a bit she took his hands and forced them to her thighs as she wrapped her legs around his waist.

Eclipse Maiden: Wow. She was not expecting that in the least. The pain was.... It wasn't fucking flaming from her head down to the side of her neck where his foot made contact. The impact to the floor was not in the least hurtful to her.

"I...tai...?" Yuki winced and managed to get a focus on Cho as he started apologizing. She reached out to him, but black spots clouded her vision, a soft sigh escaping her lips as she just laid on the floor. No one got up to help her - even though she didn't need it - but it would've been nice.... But there was a small sting in her arm that went away as quickly as it came. Yuki pulled herself up into a sitting position and sighs softly. People are cruel sometimes...

And that was when she heard it. The dreaded thing about high school. High. School. Bullies. Two of them didn't make it any better. Yuki scowled as she got up to her feet and readjusted her tape. They had some nerve... Plastic whores Yuki gasped at the thought. Not once as she ever bad mouthed anyone. It didn't make anything better. Everything they said only had Yuki's blood boil.

What a fucking freak

I bet she sucks off all the boys with dark hair and pretty eyes

I know right? Who just has big tits like that?\_

In front of me! ME! The look in Yuki's eyes changed drastically enough for her eyes to tint into a violent blood red.

You gonna let them talk to you like that? A couple of uppity white bitches with no meat on their bones? Clearly they need an attitude adjustment…give them one.

There was that fucking stinging sensation in my arm. And then there was insanity? It was like a split inside of Yuki's head. All thought and rational went to one side, and all violent and impulse went on the other, but this time, thought and rational was thoroughly locked away...

Yuki's voice was no longer the soft and gentle kind. No. This Yuki changed. It was more... Demonic so to say.

"No."
...
So... Break came, and everyone went back into the lockers to socialize and gossip. Yuki was the last to walk in and all eyes fell on her, and everything went silent... Until those two snot nosed little ignorant cunts decided to break the ice.

First was the blonde.

"Hey, pinky! How much do you charge the boys to sleep with you?"

And then the brunette.

"Not a lot it seems. She looks like a five dollar corner whore!"

And everyone joined in on the little "joke".

"Oh? You think that's funny, mosquito bites?" Yuki grew bolder with each passing second. Her eyes lowered into slits and a nasty smirk rested on her lips. "I'm sure I can give you something to laugh at too..." And she was off at the sound of a water droplet hitting the floor, her hands wrapping around both the blonde and brunette's throat before slamming them into the lockers, lifting them high off the ground, letting them dangle and kick as they reached for the floor so badly.

"Come on! Laugh... ISNT THIS SO FUCKING HILARIOUS?!" Though Yuki seemed to be screaming, her face remained impassive, showing no sign of remorse, nor anger in the least. Why hasn't she done this before? Rule by fear?

Its cause you were never taught that way! The light inside of her begged her to stop. But madness always won in the end.

"Y-you... Crazy... B..bitch!" The blonde spoke through gurgled and strained breaths for air. Again, Yuki noticed the reach for the ground and tilted her head back.

"Ne... If you want to touch the ground so badly... I'll give you a hand!" And she threw them roughly against the floor. One could hear the sickening crack as skull hit concrete. One of the other girls managed to move her feet and get the instructor, and several more at that. Before Yuki could land another hit, they tackled her down and restrained her arms and legs. Yuki struggled for a bit though, but she feigned her "defeat" long enough to see the two girls getting carried to the hospital.

"Sayonara..." And she grinned maliciously.

Ryoji: ::Ruji:: "Ruji...." Was all he needed to hear to know he was free to make any advancement to her he honestly wanted to…feeling her legs wrap around his waist and her moving his hands to her thighs, he took it a step further and started violently groping her ass in his man sized hands. Squeezing the flesh for dear life while pushing his massive bulge against her thin pants, using his teeth to light nibble on her nipples moving from one to the other.

Ruji could feel the beast stirring within his very being, going onto the prowl and ready to take the fruits she held between her legs and abuse them for his own personal gain. He took the innitative himself, moving his hand to the top of her sweatpants waist line using his claws to rip at it as well, making a slit right down the middle of them , even cutting her panties clan in half. He himself undoing his own pants in the blink of an eye to unleash the hardened pelvic flesh from its holding place. Without warning and a sour grunt unleashed whilst taking a bite of her neck, he pushed the head of his member between the lips of her womb and didn’t stop until she’d taken him in entirely.  This was her first time so of course there might’ve been some pain and a spot of blood, and it’d take her walls time to adjust.

But fuck that.

Ruji dug his fingertips into her ass cheeks, the claws pinching at the flesh of them and leaning his upper body back in a slant slightly he’d begin pulling his hips back and jetting them forward, pulling and pushing his cock inside and out. Plunging the fluids that would’ve secreted themselves from inside of her and making the exit and reentry sensationally smooth.

He spared no symphathy for her cunt, as the sound of clapping flesh filled the walls of the shed they were in, and the more it continued on, the faster his pace would’ve progressed. His grunts becoming more beastly by the second as he ‘d keep his golden hues locked onto her own with a confident smile on his face at the expressions she may or may not have been making. “You still mad? tongue click or nah?”

Ryoji: ::With Yuki::  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP7KRHY564M ) As Yuki made her way after the girls who targeted her…and dealt with them both…seemingly caving their skulls in she would’ve felt an overbearing amount of satisfaction. One that would please and appease to the inner darkness forming within her. When the instructors and officials had arrived to hold her down and restrain her, she’d find that everything within that space had stopped. Simply stopped and paused as if time had come to a complete halt.

“You’ve met with a terrible fate haven’t you?”

The voice echoing throughout the walls of the locker room as the people who were restraining her would’ve suddenly let her go. Their faces became blank and pale…emotionless as they looked straight ahead staring into the noting of the walls around them. The lined up beside her and Yuki would find herself still unable to move. Footsteps echoed in her vicinity. tap tap tap as Walter finally appeared before her. Wearing a black suit with a black trench coat over it. His black locks bouncing lightly with each step he made and his prominent red eyed stare looking at the very depths of her soul.

The scratch left on Yuki’s arm would’ve been a gateway. Walter using his mental chi to pass some of his psionic wavelengths through her nervous system in order to dictate her thoughts and actions entirely, making her see what he wanted her to see. She’d have no idea seeing as how the process had taken place so early on. She was officially under his mercy.

“Did you enjoy that Yuki? Did you enjoy breaking the barrier of your shy girl act and becoming the fierce demoness you’ve always know you’ve had the potential to be.” Walter stopped right in front of her looking down at her. He wouldn’t wait for her to answer because if she noted the moment she’d try to talk or scream her throat would’ve locked up on the spot. “Rise…” as he said this her body would’ve felt compelled to stand on his command. After she stood straight up Walter would look down at her still with hands now behind his back. He paced around her slowly, a black smoke now steaming from his body.

“I have officially remade you. I’ve broken you down and recreated you from the ground up. It is on this day, soon to be the night of the first full moon, you will have received my gift, The gift of transcending your fleshy existence and becoming a proud apex predator. “ Walter would’ve let that sink in. “You owe your new existence to me. You will kill, slaughter, mangle and destroy in my name, at my command. My will shall become your will, an absolute order that governs you to heed to my every beck and call.” Walter would’ve stopped behind her and as he did the smoke would’ve begun to dim the light in the room she was in.

“If you run, scream or attempt to tell anyone of the power you have or even so much as seek out aid from anyone who isn’t me. I will kill you. You will not know when, how, or where…but you and everyone, everything you love will die.” The room became black and Walter would’ve stood beside Yuki placing a hand on her shoulder. “I do not want an answer from you. Simply because I’ve not given you the option of choice. That is forever stripped of you. Go. Tonight you will sleep soundly and begin your bask into an eternal creature of the night.”

(stop music)

Yuki would’ve snapped back into reality finding herself standing inside of a locker room with no one in there. Seemingly like nothing happened at all. The scar she’d have had on her arm would’ve disappeared. She’d be perfectly fine, but she would indeed remember what she had thought she’d done.

Tay:  Ruji's hands found thier way to her ass and he began groping it harshly, she ehimpered quietly as his fingers dug into the flesh of her ass kneading the soft flesh. She felt him rubbing against the fabric of her sweat pants. Moaing softly she threw her head back and bit her lower lip to try and stifle herself. Wrapping her legs tighter around Ruji's waist she forced him closer as she gyrated herself into his hardened flesh. As Ruji's ripped her sweatpants from her body she shivered as heated flesh met the cool air. Panting Moena looked up at Ruji with her lust ridden eyes, her crystal hued eyes unfocoused as she looked at him softly. As Ruji pushed into her she tensed up and wrapped her arms around his neck and squirmed slightly as his intruded into her. Whimpering she dug her nails into his back, and bruied her face in the crook of his neck. "Ow..." she whimpered.

But Ruji didn't give her a break as he pushed deeper into her until she was completely filled. Yelping as he began to thrust into her she felt her own juices coat the inside of her thighs. Moena soon grew used to Ruji and wrapped her hands in his hair forcing his lips to her, but as his pace picked up Moena began moaning into his lips. As he went faster Moena moaned louder and threw her head back and moaned loudly, “You still mad? tongue click or nah?” Moena bit his bottom lip again and sucked on it slightly as her hands gripped hands fulls of his hair and tugged on it lightly. "Mmm....not too much..." she barely managed to mumble out between pants and moans.

Ryoji: Hearing her retort brought him great pleasure. “Good, good. Let’s see if I can keep that positive attitude up.” He spoke between his powerful thrust before he’d keep grip on her and lower himself down to one knee now. Taking full control of her light frame he’d use his arms to lift her body up and slam it right back down, making sure the full length and thickness of his cock hit the very back of her womb with a THUMP sensation, right against the cervix area. Each time he pulled her up and slammed her down, her cunt would’ve let out drops of his precum and her fluids combined to splatter on the floor, as he began biting his lip and trying to hold back groaning to loud in order to keep them somewhat concealed from who might be around.

The color of Ruji’s eyes began to shift from their bright but dominant gold to a furious and bloody shaded red. They glowed slighty as his actions became a bit rougher…his fangs began to bare as he took breathes through gritted teeth before tossing her onto the mat of the floor on her back. His tall lean frame hovering over her, before he re positioned her legs to rest against each shoulder, the weight of his body keeping them up as he proceeded to start using some of the beastly strength he possessed to put a much harder hurting on her. Not only would each thurst pick up in speed but power as each time he motioned inside of her, her frame would jerk and jump. Her breast responding to her movements as he pined her in place throwing his body weight into every slap of the hips.

the restraints were now officially gone and Ruji would’ve starting literally hounding her. His grunts and groans were getting…lower…and darker. Each attack to her hips was starting to redden and bruise her fair skin, as the weight of his thrust even started to get hevier, making the entire shed they were in rumble a good bit. She’d be feeling a sensation of pain and pleasure from the power of his assault upon her, as while he supported himself via his hands being on either side of her head, she’d begin seeing his fingers cringe and claw marks forming from the strides of them. His voice beginning to sound doubled almost as if there was another voice speaking at the same time as the previous one. “Where’s that smug mouth of yours now? Go ahead, say something snippy now bitch.”

His hands made their way up to her throat, his fingers  locking and grasping around the frail neck of the girl, holding her down and in place, taking away any control she may have had of the session before and leaving her to the mercy of the one she knew as “Ruji” that is until she’d start to see his features change…the red hair would’ve began to fade away and turn into a hellish black right in front of her. The body of “Ruji” began to shift, grow, and turn into something almost terrifying! His muscle mass increased so much his clothes he was initially wearing began to rip and tear off of his body, and fur began to replace skin. She could literally see shreds of skin once linked together spreading apart until the creature hulking over her now had the body of a lycan and a human head of a face she wouldn’t recognize. The face had hair covering it’s eyes before he looked her in the eyes. A red smoke fuming from his hues as a malicious smile spread across his toned face, and his pupils became smaller as he widened his eyes to look at her. “HAVING FUN YET?” The beastly voice bellowed in her face as even his member began to grow in length and thickness while inside of her…stretching her walls to a painful proportion and yet oddly still arousing. The entire shed shook around her, objects and sports equipment falling off of the walls and shelves. A moment later a loud “SNAP” could’ve been heard which would’ve been the sound of her pelvis cracking in various areas, causing her possibly to scream in pain had she not already been in shock of what was happening to her. Had she tried to struggle not only was the weight to much but the pelvic snap would’ve lead a fissure up to the middle vertebra of her spine, paralyzing her completely. The only thing she could do…was breathe and endure.

Tay:  “Good, good. Let’s see if I can keep that positive attitude up.” Moena nodded softly as her lowere him and slammed into her more powerfully, and hit hit her deep. She yelped out and her legs shuddered as she looked at him again and her body shuddered as his and her liquids slowly mixed inside her and dripped out. Meona's moans turned into tiny whimpers as the pleasure slowly turned into pain, but she thought it was normal and didn't complain as she  shivered in a strange mix of pain and pleasure. Moena gazed up at Ruji and began to whisper for him to stop. "Please sto-" but she was cut off as his eyes had switched from their normally warm gold to a cold dark red, and they were glowing. Her face sank a bit as her eyes frantically searched his face spotting the fangs. "Stop!" She yelled as he tossed her down onto the mats and his menacing frame stood over her. Moena tried to sit up but Ruji grabbed her legs and forced them over his shoulders. As he began to thrust again, Moena started to cry. Her small hands pushing against his chest as her lower regions began to hurt. Looking up at him Moena's eyes were wet with tears  as her body jerked violently with his thrusts.

Moena kept pushing against him as he violently assaulted her body, his entire body behind his thrusts, turning her head to the side Moena clamped her eyes shut and refused to look at Ruji. As he thrust Moena heard his growling and she couldn't help but open her eyes, and she spotted his claws, "STOP IT!" She screeched as she attempted to push Ruji off of her again but to no avail. “Where’s that smug mouth of yours now? Go ahead, say something snippy now bitch.”  Moena froze and her lips trembled as fresh tears fell from her eyes. Moena closed her eyes again and resolved to not look at him. Once again Moena had to look as she felt Ruji seeminly to grow and change before her. His hands had somehow found their way to her neck and began to squeeze, and her small hands had grabbed his wrists to try and stop him.  Moena's eyes grew wide as she looked again and stared at Ruji.

Or...what was Ruji...

She thought it was...

Before her was NOT Ruji. As this midnight haired stranger beared down on her and yelled into her face “HAVING FUN YET?” Moena began to scream. Confused and scared at what was going on her heart was beating a mile a mintue, it felt like it was going to beat out of her chest. To make it worse, his lenght began to grow inside her as her body instictively tried to curl up away from the pain but his weight on her prevented her from doing so. As he kept up Moena felt pain in her lower regions that she'd never felt before.

SNAP

Moena screamed a primal scream of pain and fear that only a human who no longer aware of anything but thier pain can utter. Moena attempted to violely twist herself away from him but that only brought more pain. As Moena's mind went blank she was left a crying and sweaty heap. Gasping for air and dry heaving Moena would jsut...go limp... and stare at him until he finished.
[2/24/2016 7:33:46 PM] Ryoji: Every time she yelled for him to stop, it made his dick pulsate inside of her. The sadistic gorge wolf known as Walter was getting off purely to her misery. Taking the innocence of someone by deisgusing themselves as their first love…classic. He watched the light leave from her eyes, the tears that streamed from her eyes, poured onto the mat beneath her as he continued tearing at her insides, leaning over and using his longer tongue to run it up the side of her cheek and lick up the tears she shed. “Hmm…nothing better than the tears of a virgin. Well. Used to be anyway.” He pulled himself out of her for a single second, only to have his cock shake violently over her. As he had pulled it out it would’ve seemed to her it took an eternity to leave her small body and as it now was in full view she’d see the monster 12 inch cock hovering over her womb…only to watch it wiggle and suddenly as if a cell was diving, split into two separate meat sticks. “I mean the first time is supposed to be memorable right? Embrace this for all it’s worth. HA!!!” he showed no mercy, shoving both of the huge cocks inside of her: One inside of her cunt and the other straight up the asshole into her deeper intestines. His thrust resumed their violent pace for what seemed like forever. After who knows how long, Walter’s face would’ve finally leaned up, and morphed into it’s fully on lycan version, the black beast hovering over her and pushing his body against hers as hard as he could before letting both of his hardened members unleash 3 loads of thick cum inside of her body. Her stomach actually puffing up a bit as he let out a dominant growl while letting her walls milk him dry.

The semen exploded around the rims of each hole as her body couldn’t contain it any longer. Walter growled a bit before his body quickly shed it’s hair and morphed back into his human form. His true form…he removed himself from her holes and as he did, insane amounts of semen still began to pour from her entry ways leaking onto the floor.

https://49.media.tumblr.com/22510970c5505d495dba19bf6dd0eb30/tumblr\_nni3rkrvYa1thrxwgo2\_1280.gif

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP7KRHY564M )He stood to his full height, his cock going limp, and still retaining a monstrous size as the dominant primal minded individual tilted his head up and looked down upon the whimpering mess of a female. Shadow coating his eyes and letting the red from his eyes shine through like a demon in plain sight. After taking in his semen, Moena would’ve also received a direct mental link and become a victim of Walter’s mental chi…as this happened the sunlight once pouring form the windows of the room would’ve started to turn into a hellish black.  The light in the room was now gone and all that remained was her mangled and broken body and this beast of a creature looming ominously over her. Each word he spoke was an overtaking echo, that came from every direction pouring straight into her ears…and yet to Moena this would’ve been soothing. Relaxing. Calming. An odd mixture of fear and comfort would form in the pit of her gut and as Walter spoke she would feel compelled to listen. “Innocence… the quality or state of being innocent; freedom from sin or moral wrong. This is what I have taken from you. Simply because from this day it is a trait you will no longer need. It will slow you down…make you weaker.” Walter put his hands behind his back, holding his right wrist with his left hand.

“I have officially remade you. I’ve broken you down and recreated you from the ground up. It is on this day, soon to be the night of the first full moon, you will have received my gift, the gift of transcending your fleshy existence and becoming a proud apex predator…You owe your new existence to me. You will kill, slaughter, mangle and destroy in my name, at my command. My will shall become your will, an absolute order that governs you to heed to my every beck and call.”  Walter’s body moved in a flash! Suddenly in only the blink of her weary eyes he’d been hovering over her, his hand cupping the underside of her face, making sure she had nothing else to look at but the smoking red eyes of her new Alpha.
“If you run, scream or attempt to tell anyone of the power you have or even so much as seek out aid from anyone who isn’t me. I will kill you. You will not know when, how, or where…but you and everyone, everything you love will die….I do not want an answer from you. Simply because I’ve not given you the option of choice. That is forever stripped of you. Tonight you will sleep soundly and begin your bask into an eternal creature of the night…and should you ever start to ponder taking your own life…” Walter’s body disappeared from her view leaving only the hellish red smoking eyes to look down upon her for a moment. The next thing she would’ve head would’ve been a hellish beast of a voice, a permanent growl mixed with human speech as suddenly she would’ve seen a MASSIVE 20 foot wolf hovering over her broken body!

“I will come for you…”

The giant wolf lunged at her and she would’ve experienced the closest thing to death possible. However the instant it happened she would’ve been back on the floor of the storage room in the same condition as before. Walter himself was gone from the room and slowly but surely she’d be able to hear and feel…the crackling of her bones meshing and melding back together. It’d take about an hour thus leaving her alone with her own thoughts. To process what just happened…and while she would possibly feel a need to run and hide, she would also feel a strange calm, drawing her to this mysterious beast who’d destroyed her fragile little world.

Walter himself would’ve been walking the hallways in his teacher attire, completely reshaping his face and body type, to appear as he did to the entire homeroom class. Walking along with his brief case in his right hand, and using his free hand to adjust the glasses on his face before stuffing it back into his pocket, speaking to himself in his mind.

“The seeds are planted. Now we wait for them to bloom…”

Tay: Moena hiccuped as his tongue slid up her face licking away her tears. As he pulled out of Moena sighed a sigh of relief, she thought it was over. It was over she thought, she could go get help...this pain would stop. She just stared up at the ceiling and refused to look at him,  “I mean the first time is supposed to be memorable right? Embrace this for all it’s worth. HA!!!” Moena's mind didn't register it at first until he re-entered her, this time form both holes. Screams once again erupted from Moena as he penetrated both of her holes. She started dry heaving again, the sensation was...terrible...it was just shoved inside her. She went limp again as he resumed his violent thrusts. Moena's small body shook violently as he kept up his violent motions for-

She didn't know how long it lasted.

It could've been hours, or minutes. She wasn't sure.

He finally leaned over her face, and Moena's eyes moved to look at him. His full Lycan just leaned over her and pumped her body full of him. Her stomach streched  as she began to cry silently again, the sticky substance splashing all over her legs. Moena jsut stared at him as he turned back into a human and pulled himself out of her. She made no move to get up, she just lay there and stared at him. Moena noticed as the sunlight began to fade.

Oh...it had been hours...

No...it wasn't the light. Moena just found herself in darkness, him and her. Moena heard his voice, and it was calming....slightly. She was in too much pain, to scared to even be calmed by his voice. “Innocence…" He began "the quality or state of being innocent; freedom from sin or moral wrong. This is what I have taken from you. Simply because from this day it is a trait you will no longer need. It will slow you down…make you weaker.” Moena didn't understand what he meant, and she didn't want to. She turned her head away form him and her broken body began shivering again as she began to cry again

“I have officially remade you. I’ve broken you down and recreated you from the ground up. It is on this day, soon to be the night of the first full moon, you will have received my gift, the gift of transcending your fleshy existence and becoming a proud apex predator…You owe your new existence to me. You will kill, slaughter, mangle and destroy in my name, at my command. My will shall become your will, an absolute order that governs you to heed to my every beck and call.” Moena had no clue what he was talking about she just wanted this to stop. As quickly as she could blink Moena felt his hand on her face as  he made her look at him and her blue eyes met with his red ones. “If you run, scream or attempt to tell anyone of the power you have or even so much as seek out aid from anyone who isn’t me. I will kill you. You will not know when, how, or where…but you and everyone, everything you love will die….I do not want an answer from you. Simply because I’ve not given you the option of choice. That is forever stripped of you. Tonight you will sleep soundly and begin your bask into an eternal creature of the night…and should you ever start to ponder taking your own life…” She was alone in this. Moena watched as somehow a wolf...bigger than what should be possible loomed over her. As it attacked she closed her eyes ready to die but it never came.

As quickly as things had gone down hill they were back to normal, sunlight streamed back into the shed as Moena lay there left in a pool of her tears, blood, and him. The sickening part, she felt her bones...healing. They were moving back into place slowly...she felt it. Every crack...every time a bone met bone and they ground together. She felt it. She wanted to get up and run but she merely curled into a fetal position, pulling her legs to her chest she lay on her side and sobbed. The once bubbly girl who had no cares in the world, lay broken. She didn't know what to do. Where to turn.

Eclipse Maiden: "STOP STRUGGLING, SAT-"

Yuki stopped struggling. Everything around her practically stopped and she was released but was still unable to move.

"You’ve met with a terrible fate haven’t you?”

The voice echoing throughout the walls of the locker room as the people who were restraining her would’ve suddenly let her go. Their faces became blank and pale…emotionless as they looked straight ahead staring into the noting of the walls around them. The lined up beside her and Yuki would find herself still unable to move. Footsteps echoed in her vicinity. tap tap tap as Walter finally appeared before her. Wearing a black suit with a black trench coat over it. His black locks bouncing lightly with each step he made and his prominent red eyed stare looking at the very depths of her soul.

"Did you enjoy that Yuki? Did you enjoy breaking the barrier of your shy girl act and becoming the fierce demoness you’ve always know you’ve had the potential to be.” Walter stopped right in front of her looking down at her. He wouldn’t wait for her to answer because if she noted the moment she’d try to talk or scream her throat would’ve locked up on the spot. “Rise…” as he said this her body would’ve felt compelled to stand on his command. After she stood straight up Walter would look down at her still with hands now behind his back. He paced around her slowly, a black smoke now steaming from his body.

"I have officially remade you. I’ve broken you down and recreated you from the ground up.

Simply because I’ve not given you the option of choice. That is forever stripped of you. Go. Tonight you will sleep soundly and begin your bask into an eternal creature of the night.”

Yuki was set free but everything around had practically disappeared. The staff and students where gone like the wind. Her eyes flashed from the solid pink and then to the violent blood red... She let out a shaky breath and sank down to her knees.

"What a way to have your life changed... At least he's cute, but why do I feel like this is going to be overly complicated in the future?"
