Chapter 1
 
Strange awakenings
 
 
 
Tohru woke up abruptly. Form the moment she lifted her head up from the comfort of her pillow; she knew that something big was coming. Something, which would change her life forever. She could not decipher whether this change was going to be for the better or worse, only that it was very different to what she was used to. And of course, since she was not used to about six pairs of round, golden eyes staring at her, she couldn't help what she did next.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHH!” she screamed at the top of her lungs. The strange creatures around her began flapping their wings rapidly, so that pale, lightweight feathers were released from their wings. The feathers floated all around Tohru, she watched in a slight daze, as the feathers slowly floated downwards towards the floor. She tilted her head upwards, and caught sight of one. It dropped and landed gracefully on her nose.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” she screamed again. It seemed that this scream, which was immensely louder than the last, had woken the boys. Their footsteps echoed down the hall.
“Yo Tohru!” yelled Kyo from behind the door. “Are you ok? Is something wron-“
“Of course she's not ok!” shouted Yuki, shoving Kyo aside. “Miss Honda, we're coming in!” he said before opening the door, and finding Tohru in a most peculiar state. She seemed to floating somewhere between her bed and the ceiling. There were pale, white feathers scattered allover the floor, and there were six snowy white owls perched on the headset of her bed. Tohru seemed to be crying, as there were droplets of water falling onto the floor just bellow her. In short, it was a disaster.
“T-Tohru?” asked Shigure in bewilderment. He rubbed his eyes frantically with his right hand. Either trying to get them to see correctly in the dark, or checking if he was hallucinating. He smacked his forehead with his left hand, checking if he had a fever and he was dreaming it all up.
“Tohru.” Began Yuki most politely, which was unusual, since his face was screwed up tightly, probably from being able to see Tohru's underwear from the position he was in.
“How the hell did you get up there?” asked Kyo rather loudly, as he shooed two owls off of the bed. He climbed on it, and wrapped his arms slowly around her waist. Making sure not to drop her jumped off of the bed and placed her feet first, onto the ground firmly.
“Th-those things, they… their feathers, when their feathers touched me, I floated upward.” She said in between a sob. Kyo looked into Tohru's eyes, she seemed frightened of the snowy owls.
“It's ok now.” Whispered Kyo. Tohru took in a deep breath, and smiled up at Kyo, even though her face was tear-stained, she still looked very pretty. Kyo smiled at her too, and they would have stayed there, just smiling for a while longer, had it not been for a snowy owl who clicked his beak impatiently. It flapped its wings, and took flight, gracefully flying around the room, before landing perfectly on Kyo's shoulder. Now, Kyo is the cat. And much to my knowledge, cats don't like birds.
“GWUAAHH! GET THIS STUPID BIRD OFF OF ME DAMMIT!” yelled Kyo. He began to flail his arms, the poor snowy owl holding on to Kyo's shirt for dear life.
“Shut up, you stupid cat. Once again, you succeeded in ruining the moment.” Said Yuki calmly, but quite bitterly as he grabbed the large owl and threw her off Kyo. In the process, the owl seemed to have dropped something it had been holding. It was a large role of parchment, with a scarlet ribbon tied around it. Tohru's curiosity got the better of her; she stooped down and wrapped her hand around the parchment. She picked it up and untied the ribbon, letting it drop to the floor unceremoniously. Then, she took in a deep breath and slowly unrolled the parchment. Written in slanted writing, was the message:

Tohru stared blankly at the sheet of paper before her.
“STOP CALLING ME STUPID!” Yelled Kyo angrily making a fist.
“I would, if you actually weren't stupid… ms. Honda, what's wrong?” asked Yuki timidly. He was examining Tohru's face closely. She seemed to be completely lost in thought, and very worried and confused.
“Give me that!” snapped Kyo as he snatched the parchment away from Tohru. Yuki watched silently as Kyo read to himself. Then he turned and eyed Tohru with a look of confusion and worry.
“Y-you're a witch?” he asked disbelievingly. Yuki snatched the parchment from Kyo and read it to himself. Then he handed it over to Shigure who judging by the look in his face, seemed to feel left out. Yuki turned and faced Tohru. She slowly parted her lips, everyone waiting for her answer, when Shigure dropped the letter and turned to face Kyo.
“They're coming tomorrow, to aid Tohru in anything she might have to do before she leaves.” He whispered. Tohru turned towards Yuki and Kyo with silver tears flowing down her face.
“I don't know… what I am.” She whispered before turning around and running out the door. Both Yuki and Kyo sprang forwards, but Shigure held them back.
“She'll need some time… to gather her thoughts.” He whispered. He tried to hide it, but he too was worried. And if Shigure was worried, then it sure had to be something to worry about.
