What a total disaster.
I wake up, and all of a sudden I am this.. This fox thing with nine tails, and I remember going hungry for meat, but that's all.
Then, Natsuki tells me that I messed up the cafeteria, and then the four boys come in, so Sayori closes the bathroom door on me, and tells me to turn back.
But it's not that easy! Yuri turned back fine somehow, Natsuki stopped her transformation by getting splashed with water, (I'm already wet thanks to waking up in a bathtub,) and Sayori turns back from getting dried.
And I'm dried! And yet I'm still in this weird form of mine!
I glare at myself in the mirror, my ears bent in frustration as my glowing green eyes glare back at me. And now, out of no where, the stupid thick tree vines come back and decide to grow in a bathroom. Just great.
I groan in frustration. "This is not my day.."
It's really not after I hear something crashing and breaking. Forcing me to look over, I notice one of the vines growing out of the wall, sweeping bottles and bathroom accessories off the shelf's and onto the floors.
My ears instinctively perk up, hearing a muffled voice coming from outside the bathroom door. "Is something in there?" Oliver?
Oh no. Oh no no no no no! Please don't come in! Please don't come in!
Frantically, I look around at the vines growing from the flooring and walls, cracking the white designed squares as they tilled the smooth surfaces for decoration. My eyes land back into the mirror, showing me still with two animal ears on my head.
"Some stuff is falling! Like, uh, girl stuff!" Sayori exclaims in the other room, trying cover up my mess.
I take a deep inhale, and begin walking around the small room, trying to get my nerves to settle.
"Okay Monika.." I mumble to myself. "Keep it together."
The only reason this is happening is because you're stressed. If you calm down, the vines will go away, you'll be normal again.
I let go of the breath I was holding slowly, closing my eyes. Yes.. That's it.. Just relax-
In a split moment I feel something rough stub against my foot, and I open my eyes, only to see myself falling face first onto the ground.
Quietly, I groan in pain, glaring at the growing green vine on the floor behind me on which I tripped on.
"Okay, something is in there." Oliver says, his voice becoming louder as he likely walks closer to the bathroom door. "I'm opening the door."
Sayori yells, "No!"
No!
Still on the floor, I quickly raise my hand on instinct, helplessly watching as the door began to turn open. A large, green tangled vine spouted from behind the door, growing against it, and slamming the door closed after it began opening a small bit.
I sigh in relief, resting my hand down on the floor and heaving myself up to a stand. Okay.. Let's try this again.
I stand in front of the mirror, trying my best to ignore the pounding coming from outside the door. Natsuki's yelling doesn't help me concentrate any better either.
"What is wrong with you?!" The pinkette yells. "First you four start to prance into a girls dorm, and then you try and walk into their bathroom? You perverts!"
Ace shouts back at her, "What do you mean? Did you not hear all the banging inside the bathroom?!"
I close my eyes. Stop yelling.. Please. Okay Monika. Second try. Calm down, don't focus on what's happening outside. You're fine.
I grip my hands into a fist and scrunch my eyes closed tighter impatiently. Come on, if the others can do it, so can you. So do it.
"It's none of your concern!" Natsuki growls back.
"Guys, please! Stop fighting!" She pleads loudly. I frown on hearing her voice.
She's scarred. She's trying to keep peace while covering up your sorry tail! Or, tails..? Do this for her! She can't stand to be alone out there anymore!
I sigh, and dejectedly open my eyes. I don't feel any different. I suppose it's not working..
My eyes land on the mirror I had placed myself in front of. Only, something changed. The furry ears that were once of my head were gone. I glanced behind me, noticing I had no tails following me.
No way.. How did I do that?
Quickly I turn back around fully, and notice the vines evaporating in small, green dust particles, spreading onto any of the cracks in the walls they made and fixing them, like nothing ever happened.
Of course, everything that was either broken, on the floor, or both, were still there, but the main problem had fixed itself. Thank goodness..
Immediately, I turn to the door and step outside and into the main dorm room, quickly closing the door behind me.
As confident as I am, I can't help but feel it waver as seven pairs of eyes land on me, starring holes into me.
I wave awkwardly. "Uh, hi.. Guys.. What are you four doing in here?"
"Monika!" Sayori gasps, her eyes wide and shinning with joy. I smile appreciatively at her.
Oliver stand in front of me, his face flushed with confusion. "What? Where were you? What was going on in there?"
I should've saw that question coming..
"Ah, well, I was just trying to organize some things and I slipped! Ahaha! Silly me!"
Natsuki then crossed one of her arms over her torso, and used the other to point at me. "There! There she is! Full flesh and everything!"
Oliver stumbled on his words, and was about to say something until the speakers in the dorm came on, a man's voice coming through it.
"We've been informed about the strange, wild animal in the building. So far, we think it either died, or left, but for safety measures, we want all students back to their dorms. Classes will go on like normal tomorrow. Thank you."
A long beep and a click was heard as the announcement was finished, and Natsuki walked over to the door, opening it wide open.
"You heard the man!" Natsuki hissed. "Out!" She ordered.
The boys gave one strange look at me, like confirming if I was real or not, before slowly turning around and shrugging, walking out. Once they all left, Natsuki slammed the door shut.
"And stay out!" She growled loudly.
"Moni!" Sayori exclaimed, rushing towards me. "Are you alright?!" She asked, her eyes scanning over me.
I find myself frozen at the sudden attention and smile bashfully. "Y-yeah, thanks."
"What was that?!" Natsuki yelled, glaring at me. "What were you even doing in there?!"
I rolled my eyes. "It was a lot harder then I thought! You didn't have to yell at them though."
"They were being creeps!" Natsuki protested.
Sayori turned to face Natsuki, a sympathetic look in her eyes. "Nat, they were just worried!"
"Worried?" Natsuki scoffed. "Ace kept calling me cupcake!"
"I will agree," Yuri spoke up, after being quiet the whole time. "Calling you cupcake is.. Strange."
"Couldn't agree more." Natsuki grumbled.
Sayori then snickered. "That was kinda funny though, right?"
"What? Him calling me cupcake?"
Sayori shrugged, her smile wide and goofy. "Nah, just everything that happened today. We got to two transformations in one day!"
Natsuki glared coldly at Sayori before cracking a smile, soon beginning to laugh. "Yeah, right?"
Yuri quietly giggled, covering her hand shyly over her mouth. "It has been a strange day, hasn't it?"
I smile, noticing Sayori stop laughing and looking down at her stomach. "Aww!" She groaned. "We never got to try out dinner!"
Natsuki groaned in hunger while Yuri smiled sadly. Sayori's eyes landed on me, "Aren't you hungry too?"
"Not really," I admitted, blushing lightly and scratch my neck in embarrassment.
"Of course she isn't!" Natsuki laughs. "She practically ate 10 pounds of meat in less then twenty minutes!"
Sayori glances down at her feet, gently kicking the small crumbs of meat on the floor. "We should probably clean up."
Yuri laughed quietly. "Yes, we'll help." She offered, gaining a thankful gaze from Sayori.
"What?" Natsuki groaned. "Why are helping to clean up Monika's mess!"
I gasp overly dramatically at her. "My mess? I can hardly remember what happened!"
"Well, you're the one who caused it!" Natsuki replied, grinning playfully.
Sayori laughed. "Guys stop it! Let's hurry and clean up so we can go to bed and start classes tomorrow!"
"Oh yeah!" Natsuki exclaimed. "I almost forgot about that!"
I smile warmly.
Let's just hope these ones go better then it did last time.
