Day
Of
The Fox
Part I:
Dog Days
ļæ¼Chapter 1: Welcome To My Life
Dear Diary,
My name is Sora Asagura, I am 14 and I finally get to go to
high school. I have long, brown hair for a guy and hazel colored
eyes. Iāve always been the shy one, I never really got to know
anybody in middle school, so I am planning on doing better this year.
My high school years will be at Foxhill High School and I am going
to be put into the IB program there, however I have no real interest
in school, I have always wished there was some other world, some
different life. My mom told me I should probably keep a diary from
now on so that I can keep track of events at school, but I just want
to put fantasies down, different worlds full of new stuff. Speaking
of mom⦠I have to go for now Diary, my mom is telling me I need to go
to bed⦠Nightā¦
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sora lifted his head off of his pillow, his hazel eyes
focusing slowly. The alarm clock was blaring and Sora sleepily lifted
his hand and hit the snooze button and closed his eyes. Five minutes
passed. The alarm went off a second time and he groaned and got up
and turned off the radio, this took him a minute because he was
still too tired. āFive āoāclock⦠What the hell⦠Whoever decided high
school should open this early needs to go die⦠or get a lifeā¦ā Sora
groaned and finally stood up and looked at his new room. A fan
rapidly whirred above him making a low relaxing humming noise, a pair
of musashiās with black sheathes lay on a stand on his dresser. A
bass guitar, a flute and an orcarina were hidden in the closet. His
desktop was scattered with used sheets of paper, some stories, some
drawings. The blue carpet felt good under his toes. He shook his head
and then sighed. āSummer vacation is already over⦠that stinksā¦ā Sora
recalled the Summer break. It hadnāt been all that fun. His dad had
been busy on some top secret assignment and his mom was too busy at
the animal shelter to keep him company. He had called his friends,
however they were already having fun in Hawaii, Florida or Las Vegas.
He was stuck here, in North Carolina, doing the only thing he could
do with no one else around. Draw, write, eat and sleep. That had been
his day for the whole summer vacation. So much for a summer to brag
about. With that he lazily moved towards his dresser and picked out
some clothing. A dark grey undershirt, a blue and black dragon shirt,
a pair of white cargo pants with a few tears in the left knee, and
some black Nike shoes. āI guess Iāll have to make a good impression
since itās high school nowā¦ā Sora stared at the clock and watched it
click by to 5:30 and finally walked out of his room and headed for
the bathroom.
The water was very relaxing to his artistic body. He wasnāt
built for football like all the other guys he knew were. He played
soccer, he swam and he played basketball. He let out a shy smile in
the mirror and dressed himself and then slowly brushed his dark brown
hair. It was somewhat long and had a light brown sheen to it. Sora
turned out of the bathroom and walked down the hallway and side
flipped down the stairs. He had only recently learned how to flip,
although he was getting better each day. What his agile body lacked
in physical strength it made up for in flexibility and physical
prowess. As he walked down he realized it had been longer then he had
thought and the bus would be there any minute, so he grabbed a cherry
Pop-Tart and dashed out the door with it in his mouth. With his lunch
in one hand and his book bag in the other he dashed up to the bus
stop and slowed down as he reached it. A black kid around the age of
17 slowly walked up to him, when Sora didnāt back off like most did
to the large muscular man, he smiled and gestured his hand for a
shake.
āWhazāup white boi? I kin tell we gunna get along jusā great,
I am Daren, but call me Dare.ā He smiled, showing no hostile signs
like most of the kids that looked like him did. Sora smiled, the kid
looked just like a thug to him, however he obviously didnāt have the
thug personality. Sora returned the shake.
āNice to meet you Dare, so which school do you go to?ā Sora
said calmly, shoving his hands in his pockets and standing next to
Dare, waiting for the bus. Dare laughed.
āWell, I go to Falling Grounds, but I aināt ever hardly
there, just donāt feel like it⦠yaāknow? But my pops told me that I
had to come todayā¦ā Dare muttered, obviously he was not all that into
school.
āWell Iām going to Foxhill, so, whatās it like at Foxhill?ā
Sora asked while staring at another kid headed up the street. He was
Hispanic and had his hair slicked back, he had a rather small beard
and large side burns, resembling the werewolves in the horror movies,
he wore a black leather jacket with a dirty white T-shirt underneath
and black pants. When he walked up he stopped and nodded towards
Sora. Dare didnāt answer and gazed in the same direction as Sora, a
smile slapped onto his face.
āNew kid huh? I see youāve met Dare, Iām one of his friends,
Marcus, call me Marksman⦠or Markā His voice even sounded like a
growl thought Sora. He walked over and gestured the same shake that
Dare had done. Sora met the shake.
āSo, why are you both nicknamed those?ā Sora asked calmly,
still un-phased by the fact that both of the kids were bigger and
stronger.
āIām known as Marksmen cause of thisā Mark pulled out a gun
and fired three bullets, each hitting the street lamp directly in the
middle. ā7 year winner of the Bird Huntā Mark pocketed the gun
calmly. Sora appeared a little shocked from him pulling out a gun.
āIām known as Dare cuz my friends dared me to jump off a
building for 3 bucks and of course, I did. Iāve taken every dare
since then.ā Dare pounded his chest once. A bus headed down the
street and stopped a few feet away and Dare and Mark both stepped
on. āUntil we meet again kidā¦ā Dare said as he passed through the bus
doors. Mark stared at Sora for a moment and then slowly walked on.
āThe nameās Sora Asaguraā¦ā Sora muttered under his breath.
Suddenly he heard a shuffling sound coming from behind him and he
spun around to see a young girl about his age with blond hair and
bright blue eyes. āOh, hey Maiaā Sora smiled happily, finally seeing
an old face. āSo are you going to Foxhill?ā
āYeah! I canāt wait to meet new people there, of course⦠I
like my old friends moreā She happily poked his forehead and then
looked up the street. āSo who were those kids? Iāve never seen them
beforeā¦ā
āOh, just a few guys that go to Falling Groundsā¦ā Sora
muttered quietly.
āIsnāt Falling Grounds for the bad kids?ā Maia quickly spoke
loudly.
Sora rubbed his ear from the noise and finally
answered, āItās more that they are misunderstood Maia⦠Not all people
that go there are bad⦠of course they are a little messed upā¦ā Sora
went on slowly as he recalled Mark.
Just then a few more people finally showed up. A tall Asian
kid that looked kind of like Jackie Chan, and what appeared to be his
girlfriend, a much shorter girl with short black hair. There was
what looked like an emo kid, he had all black clothing on and long
purple hair, apparently, the purple haired shy girl behind him was
his sister. Finally a red headed girl with a tomboyish hair style
walked up. The first to speak up was the Jackie Chan look-a-like. He
wore a white T shirt and black pants.
āI am Sai Rasugi, I like Japanese food and I do Tai Chiā He
spoke calmly and boldly. The second to talk was the girl next to him,
dressed in tight blue short shorts and a black shirt with a big pink
heart on it, she was chewing gum.
āI am Soia Ryuuga, I take Tai Chi as well, we are datingā She
said happily, hugging Saiās arm. The redheaded tomboy moved out of
the crowd happily. She wore a white zip-up hoodie all the way
unzipped revealing net clothing, she also wore a mini skirt and
leggings.
āThe nameās Haru Mikazachi! I like everything! ā¦and I take
kickboxing because I get hyper easily and my mom says it keeps me
calmerā She boisterously spoke. The shy girl spoke slowly from close
to her brother.
āI am Miyu Mazashi. This is my brother Karasu Mazashi, I draw
and he writes poetry, he also plays with chain weapons sometimesā¦ā
She quickly ducked back behind her brother who shrugged and remained
silent. Maia stepped up next.
āIām Maia! This is my best buddy Sora, he draws and uses
pistols and musashis. I work for his mother as a vet-in-training!ā
Maia said happily. With that the bus came and the group of kids got
on the bus to head to Foxhill High.
The whole bus ride had been lousy. The bus drive was a jerk
and the kids were to loud. Sora couldnāt get any sleep. Worse, he had
to listen to Maia babble on about her summer vacation. When they
arrived at school they all pulled out there schedules and went there
separate ways. Maia walked up to Sora and poked him.
āWhat is your schedule? I have geometry, then gym, then
Spanish and then kendo!ā Maia happily spoke, her bright blue eyes
dancing with happiness.
āOh greatā¦ā Sora handed the schedule to Maia and she jumped
with glee.
āYou have every class I do!ā Maia excitedly spoke and then
hugged him. āYay!ā
Sora blushed a little and pushed her back a bit āNo touchy
Maiaā¦ā Sora tried to hide his blush by looking pissed.
Maia noticed Sora blushing and poked him āYou know you liked
that Sora! Iāll do it again if you donāt admit it!ā She looked at him
evilly. Sora sighed as he knew she would do it again if he didnāt say
it.
āFine⦠your right, I did like it⦠just donāt do it again
anywaysā¦ā Sora walked off, headed for Geometry and Maia walked faster
to catch up. Today was going to be a long day though Soraā¦
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
āGood morning students, I am Mr. Longā A short man with a
receding hairline said monotonously. Sora groaned and let his face
hit his desk. If he had a boring teacher like this in the morning he
was doomed to fall asleep each day.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Diary,
What a waste of time, I hated today, we didnāt do anything
but listen to our teachers blabber on about the same rules every
class. I got stuck sitting with Maia in each class. I misplaced my
lunch, and I fell asleep in my first class. I might as well skip
school tomorrow, no use in goingā¦

That isn't bad, Yama. Really, you should keep writing (and reading!) because you clearly have substance to your stories and have nothing to lose by refining your writing style. Your descriptions are fluid and your sense of humor is authentic, most notably. Post more chapters if you haven't become discouraged by your responses.
Don't worry about that. Do you think Mark Twain would get a passing grade if he submitted an essay consisting of hickspeak to an English teacher this day in age? The fact is English teachers are apointed to their position and some of them can be helpful, but often times they misjudge students of great talent. I should post up an English essay you may or may not enjoy... :P

I edited my post and addressed that 'English teacher' issue.

Lolz... Well I did learn to write from my mom, and she owns a writing board online, she had an english major in college and each week she writes some freaking scary horror stories
And yeah, I sorta stopped trusting that teacher entirely, My friend had his dad(Whom teaches COLLEGE level english) Help him make his essay COLLEGE Level and he got a 70 or so...

Lolz, One of the things I plan on doing, is, to come in at the end of the year with a floppy disk full of short stories and this story and tell her that this is what i've been doing instead of her homework.
Lolz, it might be mean... but I like getting revenge...
