Kin #8
Kin watched as her underclassman left and smiled before turning to head home herself. It was going to be a fun evening if Tora was coming by to learn more about her powers. However, she first needed a good shower, dinner and maybe a chapter or two of her latest obsession manga. Osaka Wight.
The shrine itself was peaceful in the early evening light, the street lights on two of the four sides provided a decent illumination where as the strategically placed lights on the grounds lit a path past the gift shop to the main shrine building. Anyone with even the slightest spiritual awareness could feel the barrier that covers the entire grounds and the house next door. From the outside there was not a hint of spirituality to the place, but once one was through the barrier the shrine and the house next door were awash with the spiritual pressure of two figures. The stronger of which was sweeping the path not far from where the young delinquent entered. The shrine maiden in her asymmetrical uniform with its repaired rips and tears stopped to look over and smiled. It was a knowing motherly smile that would put fear into the hearts of children who knew they had done something wrong.
“Kin is bringing more strays?” She asked in a caring tone, looking to the side where the house was and looked up to a bedroom window. “She’s in there.” The woman said with a soft sigh before turning to the girl and bowing her head. “It is nice to meet you, I am Yoshino Shinobou. Keeper of the Shrine, vendor of spiritual gadgets and trainer of lost kittens.” Shinobou explained as she reached into one of her sleeves and produced a small gooey looking orb.
“One second. Kin will be here soon.” She spoke before pulling her arm back and tossing the mass at the window she had just looked at.
“No way! He was the one horned falcon?!” Kin exclaimed as she tapped on the mouse pad of her laptop to turn the page of her E-Manga. Osaka Wight had really been captivating her as of late, the story about a lone girl transformed into a half Wight after a freak accident saved her life was in Kin’s eyes… peak fiction.
The orb flew through her window and with a sudden impact exploded into a spiritual scream that could be heard out in the grounds of the shrine as the orb shouted in a familiar voice. “KAIDA KIN! YOU LAZY LAYABOUT STUDENT GET HERE NOW!” An echo of Shinobou’s voice screamed at the top of her lungs making Kin jump out of her skin with such fright her defensive spell flared a bright yellow.
“Coming!” Kin called as she looked out of the window to see Tora and BRAINBUSTA standing by her sensei. She looked back as the flames that enveloped her skin died down to a pale blue, a relieved colour as she moved back and ran through the house to leave and get to the Shrine.
