Mochi Ai is the sweetest, cutest, most kawaii person you could ever know. Returning to her stepmom and dad back in USA from the Harajuku district of Japan, she meets the alpha of her new school, a wolf-and-dragon hybrid named Drake. Poetic, huh? As the two get to know each other, however, Drake realizes Mochi has some nasty skeletons in the closet. What is she? Who is she?
"Hello, sir. Is Mochi available?" Drake asked as Hiroto let him inside. Hiroto nodded. "Neka's upstairs giving her a pep talk... she tried overdosing on cough medicine this morning so she didn't have to go to school. Please protect my baby girl, son," he said. The sound of slurred thumps and foots alerted the boys to Mochi slowly walking down the stairs as if she was going to her execution. Her eyes leaked black and red tears. "Hi, Mochi... are you ready...?" Drake asked softly. Mochi nodded and hugged him. Neka whispered in his ear, "I told her about her condition. She said she'll try and keep it under control, but she's terrified. Please protect her." Drake nodded, and with that, the two left the house. As soon as they arrived at school, Drake's attitude changed completely; he shot threatening looks at anyone who dared to tease Mochi, snarled and growled at those who tried to inflict pain of any sort on her... and it seemed to work. Drake started to see a small, quivering smile on her face; If she could get through the whole day without being bullied at all, Neka had a strong feeling that she'd be 'recovered' enough to fight back against any more bullying. However, halfway through the day, terror struck...
Mochi slowly ate her bento in the hallway as Drake stood guard. Suddenly, he heard a loud yelp, and he couldn't move: Gavin had pulled Mochi off the bench, and several of his friends were holding Drake back. Mochi screamed in terror as Gavin loomed over her. "Gavin, don't you dare lay a finger on her!!! You don't know what she'll do!!!" Drake roared. A crowd of students gathered to watch. Gavin smirked. "Try and stop me," and with that, he bared his teeth and started whaling on Mochi. Anais and Thea pleaded him to stop from the grip of Gavin's friends, but he continued to inflict all sorts of pain on Mochi. The crowd "ooh"-ed and "oww"-ed with every blow. "LIKE THAT, DEMON GIRL?! HUH?!" Gavin yelled maliciously. Suddenly, Mochi stopped yelling. She stopped reacting. She just sat on her knees, head bowed. Drake noticed black blood sizzling on the ground. "Mochi, calm down; Control yourself! Happiness, love, anime-" he yelled. "Oh, she finally recognized the true alpha, eh? Of course, she did! Because she's..." Gavin snarled.
"JUST A"
*bam*
"STUPID"
*kick*
"WORTHLESS"
*slap*
"UNLOVED"
*boom*
"DEMON!!!"
*CRACK!!!!!!*
A wave of terror and fury ran radiated like an explosion through the hall. As it hit everyone's ears, the sound of glass snapping filled the air. Several kids screamed. Everyone was shoved back and onto the ground by the mysterious force. Drake was thrown against the wall. Gavin was shoved onto his backside, eyes wide. Drake stared in horror at Mochi: she had changed. Her formerly red horns, tail, and wings had turned a sickening black. Her hair turned blood red, floating as if there was zero gravity. Drake took a small step towards her. "Mochi...?" She turned to him, her hair floating out of her eyes. Several people screamed. Gavin gasped. Drake stared.
Her eyes were, no doubt, ones of a demon: hollow and black.
