🦊 The Fox and The Wolf 🦊


"This looks just like me. This has to be my grandmother." Kira said as she looked at a picture of what looked like her and a WWII soldier. Azalea grabbed the picture and looked at it before chuckling, "Oh I know who that is." Azalea said making Kira raised her eyebrows. "You do? How?" She asked and Azalea looked at her in amusement, "My bother is the one who took the picture." She said.

"You remember, I told you about Malia? She's the last one who saw Stiles at Eichen House. This picture, and this-" He said as he held up a sword, Azalea hummed slightly as she grabbed it looking it over before smiling to herself.

"They found it with a body buried in a wall. The same backwards "5" that the Oni put on us was on the wall. It sounds like it all goes back to your family- your grandmother, your mom." Scott said and then Kira's phone went off making them look at her as she read a text.

"What is it?" Azalea asked as Kira's eyes widened, "My dad." She said.

Azalea, Scott and Kira quickly ran into the school and over to the history class where Noshiko was kneeling down next to her husband who was gasping for breath. "Kira, did you bring it?" Noshiko asked and Kira handed her a vial, "You going to tell me what "it" is?" Kira asked.

"Reishi." Noshiko said and Kira raised her eyebrows, "You're not seriously giving Dad magic mushrooms?" Kira said making her mother give her a look before feeding her husband a mushroom. Mr. Yukimura gasped for a moment before coughing up blood into a napkin, "Are you okay?" Noshiko asked as they stood up and he nodded.

"Stiles did this?" Scott asked making Noshiko look at him, "He wanted the last kaiken." She said before holding up a dagger. "I've kept this near me ever since your friend disappeared." She said, "Mom, you need to talk to us- about everything." Kira said and Noshiko nodded slightly.

Azalea pulled out the picture from earlier before handing it to Noshiko making the woman look at her shocked. "Where did you get this?" Noshiko asked and Azalea just have her a look, "Is it Grandma?" Kira asked and Noshiko glanced at Azalea who nodded.

"No... It's me." She said and Scott raised his eyebrows, "If that's you, then you'd have to be, like, ninety years old." Scott said and Noshiko nodded. "Closer to nine hundred." She said and Kira's eyes widened, "Okay. Sure. Why not?" She said and Azalea shrugged slightly. "I mean, is it that much of a shocker? After all, I am a hundred and seventy-two." She said and Kira looked at her dad.

"Dad, how old are you?" She asked, "Forty-three. But, I've been told I look mid-thirties." He said making Azalea chuckle. Kira held out the sword and her mother grabbed it before breaking the chain as she pulled the handle away from the sheath, dumping out pieces of a broken katana.
