My first day...

My name is Zaphea. It's my first day at the Biju Academy, and I'm only here because the leader of my village forced me to attend. I have long black hair and green eyes. I'm not going to tell you about me anymore than that right now.

I sat there, staring out the window. I saw the people start to walk up to the building. One had bright red hair and a giant gourd on his back. The other two must have been his older brother and sister. The girl had a huge fan on her back, and the older boy had on a black robe with the hood up, which made it look like he had cat ears, like the black ones that rose from my head.

My black cat tail twiched at the sight of him. Maybe he was joining the accademy? He must have been at least a year older than me, though. On his back, he carried somthing wrapped in white cloth.

Suddenly, the older siblings hugged the young red haired one, and they watched him walk up to the school, then walked away. So apparently he wasn't a biju like me. I sighed and looked at the class room, which was growing more and more crowded. Suddenly, a boy with yellow spiked hair approached me.

"Hi!" he said, "I'm Naruto Uzimaki! What's your name?"

"Zaphea," I told him plainly, and looked at the door as the red haired-gourd carrier walked in. He sat down quietly next to me. Naruto looked over at him.

"Hi, Gaara!" he said. Gaara just nodded. "So the Hokage sent you here, too?" Gaara just nodded again. "Great! You think this will be like the ninja accademy, where we get put into teams?" Gaara didn't say anything. Naruto just turned back to me.

"So... where do you come from anyway?" he asked

"That's for me to know, not you," I told him. This guy was getting really anoying. Finally, the teacher walked in.

"I am Gensei. I will be your instructor. Everybody take a seat." Everybody sat down. "Good, now, shall we tell everyone what we are possessed by, or do we keep it a secret? Let's take a vote. Who wants to tell?" Everyone but me and Gaara raised their hands. "Okay, we'll go from back to front." Gensei pointed at me. "Your name and your posessor."

I sighed and stood up. "My name is Zaphea." My tail flicked behind me, and my ears twiched. "I am possessed by the Black Jaguar."

"Good," said Gensei, "Next to you?"

Gaara stood up, and in a deep voice he said, "My name is Gaara, and all I'll tell you is I'm possessed by a sand demon."

Gensei went through a few more people. Quite a few were cats, like me, and some other odd ones were thrown in. Finally he got to Naruto. "I'm Naruto, and I'm possessed by the Nine Tailed Fox." No wonder he was so annoying. He was a dog, and no matter how much a fox is like a cat, a dog is a dog, hyper and annoying. Finally, the names were done.

"Now, I notice a few of you have ears and or tails out. I would like you to put them away." I saw a few tails and ears dissappear while I put my tail away. Gensei looked at me. "You are the only one with ears out," he told me.

"I know," I said, "I can't put them away. I was born with them." Gensei sighed.

"I should have known this would happen. It is not that you are born with them, it is that your inner demon is so well connected, that it is unstable, meaning that, if not properly trained, it might decide to come out at any time, and stay out, trapping the real you inside." The bell rang and everybody stood up. Some now whispered things to eachother, presumably about me. What a way to end my first day.
