Jiyu Kazehime's Secondary Magic Training [Private]

325


Once the train came? It was suprising for Jiyu to feel that she wanted to be the first one to board, on a return trip. Even coming back from her jobs? Kazehime postponed returning to the guild, to do more fun things in whatever area she’d done her job in, whenever possible. However she guessed this was nothing like a job nor casual trip. Instead? She felt the guilt from earlier return and vanish at the same time, swirling in her stomach while it faded away at the same time. Thinking back on it, the female realized she had ran away once more, she swore that had not been her motive, but looking at this, it was just a big unofficial running away from home once more! It felt so weird to be going back to a place she had ran away from, even if she had not told them or even herself until now, that she had run away. Oh well, the female brushed her hair behind her elfin ears, no longer so conscious of the staring she got due to the new features on her body. Honestly? She was liking that she became half dog demon, it gave her another link to her deceased mother, and another way to climb up the ranks of the wizard world, both things pleased the wind user very much. Kazehime moved forward, boarding the train and feeling something change with the action, this carefree smile coming to her mouth as she moved towards the back of the train car, sitting down for the moment, looking out the window with a new view on the scenery that would flood past her, when the train finally started moving. The half dog demoness could not wait for the train to start heading back to Rose Garden for once, and she wondered how large this joy could become, if she let it flow until she stepped back into her home.

Even though she had the accommodation of being granted access to one of the bed cars, Jiyu did not take it, she stayed and even slept in the normal seats, the wind sorceress just did not want it. Instead of hiding herself away this time? She wanted anyone boarding or departing the train to see her, look at the proud member of black rose, the rising star who did not care that she was also a half demon! What did her blood really matter anyways? Sure it gave her new abilities, but in time she would master them and then everything would be perfectly peachy, that was how things went! However some part of her still told the sorceress that things would not go exactly how she wanted, somewhere she could feel something plotting to take away the blessing of home she had received. If anyone wanted to try to take what was now hers away from the half dog demon? She would fight until her last breath to prevent that, Black Rose was her family, Iza had said it and Marschal had been silently telling her all along, beside the other members! There was no way she could live or exist anywhere else, that place was meant for her, it was the space where it did not matter who she had been, or if she didn’t know who she was, they loved her and they knew who she was! In time? She’d come to know fully who she was, but for now, it was good enough to know they saw her for something good. When the train parked in oak town, she could barely contain herself, getting up suddenly and attracting the attention of everyone on the train with her large wagging tail, nearly pressed against the glass as she waited for it to open.

Once the glass blocking the wind user from escaping the train slid open, the half demoness was out of the doors before anyone could even blink. Sometime while being on the train? She had changed into her bikini top and jean shorts once more, so now once more you could proudly see the Black Rose on her stomach, the large shape giving her a warm feeling against her stomach as she smiled large. Kazehime was excited and delighted to be running through oak town, on a one way trip back to Rose Garden, and anyone who saw her tail past her breakneck speed could tell it, the appendage wagging without any control or restraint. This was also the first time since being injured so badly and then transforming that the wind user noticed that she could push her body the way she used to, before it had been required to rest due to bruises and burn marks, those marks no longer existed! The mage laughed at the discolored flesh around her wrists and lower legs, generally laughing as she darted further out of oak town, her backpack bouncing against her back. Soon enough? She would get back to Rose Garden, she did not care what the time would be, the only thing that Jiyu cared about now, was stepping foot back inside of her home and maybe finding Marschal to see what his reaction to her transformation into a canine would be! Honestly? She could see the face he’d make being pretty priceless, so she would avoid confronting him without having some sort of camera! That would be a moment she’d want to catch forever, not that she had a real prediction, but she just had a feeling, she’d enjoy it. Of course? Jiyu thought she might even enjoy fire right now, so long as it did not get too close to her, and spiders might be her friends right now too!

Finally, her feet made contact with the hard stone walkways that she had once thought she would never miss walking on. With that sensation on her bare feet once more? Jiyu took the moment to grind her feet into the ground, pushing them harder and relishing the feeling, even thought it might bring bruises the next day. “Never thought I’d miss all this noise!” and it was noisy indeed, everything in the city bustling, just like always! Kazehime walked forward slowly, looking around with new curiosity, she had always thought of the city as a base of operations for her missions, not an area she actually should pay attention to. However now, she was certain about Black Rose and Rose Garden being her home, and someone had to know what their home looked like, otherwise they could not truly call it home! She saw so many things that normally went by her on a normal day, laughing as she watched children running around, mother’s cradling infant's, shopkeepers yelling about something or selling their goods. “I guess it's like the cities heartbeat.” she had slowed down incredibly, looking around and relishing in the current events as she opened all her senses, even though she knew that it would be regretted the next morning, when she could not get out of bed due to the pain her senses would end up subjected to. “Its beautiful in some ways.” something that she would have never called the city before, attractive sure, but actually gorgeous was something she reserved for nature, normally. However there was no way the town she made her beloved home in, was anything less than stunning. Maybe? She was a little star struck, but that did not matter right now, did it. All that mattered? Was the fact was almost back the guild itself, breath picking up.

Arriving in the silver moon at last, after such apprehension? Was amazing, but she drown out the joy quickly, tucking hair behind one hair, and looking up coyly. “I’m back.” she could already feel some of the really ticked stares, the anger at what she had done. However she could not bring herself to conjure rage in return tonight, all the wind mage wanted, was her bed, and everything to be alright in these walls. “I know, I’m sorry. Right now though, I’m really tired, so I’m going to go retire back to my room.” the wind mage made her way up the stairs before anyone could stop her, giggling slightly and racing back to her bedroom. Once more? She went inside and locked it, not wanting to be bothered while her heart felt so high and close to exploding, removing the backpack she’d carried the whole journey, slowly starting to unpack her few belonging, placing her book back where it went, feathers atop it, putting her dagger in her night stand. Finally? She came to the outfit she’d run away in twice “Lets hope I never put you on again” she chimed it, picking up the clothing and placing it into her bottom drawer. While it held too many memories to just toss out? JIyu did not think she ever wanted to wear the items again, finally allowing herself to fall down onto her super fluffy blanket, sinking her face into the item, one of her victories, one of many to come. Even if she did not quite understand or know exactly what she wanted or could expect out of her new demon blood? The wind mage now know that she was alright with whatever came her way, she had a whole family behind her again. When the morning came? She’d be normal tsundere Jiyu, but for now, she felt soo happy it was nearly sickening to herself.
