Suzume was a little annoyed, "It's not mine!" she said quickly, her family had never had a cat for all she knew and the creature following her was certainly no companion of hers. Suzume relaxed after a few moments after she fully thought through what she had been told, obviously taking her time at it. "No nekomatas on this ship." she said to herself in slight enjoyment, almost unbelievingly.

Elsren smiled and continued talking, "Hey, Suzume, what kind of powers do you use?"

"Oh! They're all inherited from my family, pyro abilities, illusions..." she said as she looked at the water in wonder concerning the spell that could keep a vile nekomata at bay when she realized she stopped talking and forgot to name another one of her powers "and I can transform, see." she said quickly as she smiled and snapped her finger and being shown in her true form of a three tailed fox demon, then quickly remembering the spell cast on the ship might affect her in her demon form and a worried look befell her face, wondering if anything would happen to her. If anything would happen she knew it would be within seconnds and she couldn't do anything about it in the short time she had, she grew more nervous and it showed on her face.
(Me: Hey! I don't mind if she's turned into a mouse or something due to the spell. Suzume: WHAT!! 0_0!! BUT THAT CRAZY NEKOMATA IS FOLLOWING ME!! Me: *nods* I know. Suzume: I hate you. Me: I know.)

"Don't worry, you're not affected. Maybe I should clarify this spell." Another meowing sound echoed through the boat. Kicking open a trapdoor in the floor, she shouted in, "Just a minute!!!" Settling back into her seat, she continued, "When I cast the Activation Spell, I had to name who shouldn't be affected by it. I choose you, me, the thing underneath the floorboards, and my little minions down there." She laughed, "I'm kidding for the last one. But anyway, the Spell knows your essence, so you won't be harmed by it."Illusions, fire, and transformation? Sounds familiar. Ah, I know why. Are you related to anyone in this school? Preferably a teacher?"

Elsren's face turned white and she gripped the edge of her seat, sitting up straight. She listened to the air, face stone, everything rigid. In the silence, distant throbs in the air were heard, giving one an image that a dragon the side of Europe was above them, flapping its wings. As the beats continued, the sounds seemed to work its way into the ship, beating down on the two's ears. Even the undead surrounding the ship ceased to fight, and fled. A loug abnormal howling emerged from the bottom of the ship. Elsren turned sharply to Suzume, "We're surfacing. It'll be more dangerous now if we stay under the water. I'll explain up there" She began speaking words with extreme speed. As the boat began glowing silver and floating slowly up, a new sound emerged. It sounded similar to the beats, but in a sharp, raged pattern. Something that sounded like sharp screams were added to the beat, but were so faint, you had to ask yourself if you were just imagining it. Elsren paled more and spoke ancient non-spell words, to calm herself. Whatever could frighten this Goddess had to be bad.

Suzume tensed up and whimpered slightly as she looked around a few moments later she barked, then remembering she couldn't speak in her fox form and she transformed into her human form except her ears and tails which remained covered in the same sleek black fur as she had when she was a fox. She sat down and held onto the seat, not daring to stand up due to what she felt was an obvious display of fear, and after learning she was a goddess Suzume would definately be scared if Elsren was. "What's going on?!" she asked as she forced her words out smoothly as if she wasn't afraid at all. Her ears were in pain now due to the loud noise that was intensified when she was in her fox form.

Elsren glaced at Suzume, and spoke quickly, "There's a reason Twilight Moon Academy closes after midnight. Outside, terrifying and hideous beasts come out all over. We managed to make a deal with them- They own the Night, and we own the Day. The Water Demon is what's comming up now. If wen don't get to the shore soon..." A patch of growing moonlight appeared at the top of the boat, sliding down the side as if it was liquid. The throbs below grew stronger as Elsren opened the trapdoor. A blur shot out of the room below and hid within a bag at the edge of the ship. Closing the door, Elsren slung the bag over her shoulder and spoke again, "Get ready to jump off the ship if the thing attacks. It'll be too busy with the ship to notice us. Hopefully. My spells can't hold off something of that great power.

Suzume nodded as she stood up and looked around silently, her three fox tails thrashing wildly behind her as she looked up towards the sky, "What a strange day." she said calmly to herself as she slowly began to close her eyes to feel the force of energy around them, her Kitsune-bi wasn't strong, but she had a little bit of it. In English speaking countries it was called Fox Fire. She could slightly sense the magic around her, but not as well as the more well trained kitsunes, this was one ability she kept to herself.

Something crashed against the side of the Ship, and Elsren shouted, "Suzume!!! We have to go!" She dove into the water and began swimming expertly towards the shore, looking back for her Student. A split-second after Elsren jumped, might jaws the size of a house burst out of the water and bit the back end of the boat off, inches away from Suzume. Only the spell kept the boat from sinking.

Suzume's eyes went wide as she saw the teeth biting into the boat behind her and she began running towards the other side of the boat where Elsren was. She closed her eyes as she jumped into the water and continued swimming through the water, a small leaf floated through the water a little ways behind her and she wondered if she should go after it. If she had the leaf she would be capable of using more complicated forms of Transformation.

Elsren read her mind quickly and subtely, then sprang over and grabbed her around the waist, "C'mon!! We don't have the time!" She swam the shore reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallu fast and collapsed on the sandy ground. The beast in the water sprang in the air to show a monstrous body, larger than any house or mansion! Elsren shuddered and walked into the Shack, seemingly forgetting about her student.

Suzume looked back towards the ocean and shook her head as she bolted towards the shack, her breath was rapid and shallow. "What is going on?" she asked nearly out of breath as her eyes adjusted to the light in the shack. Suzume slunk down on the floor, "Is anyone else out there?" she asked as she sat there, her back against the door as she hoped they were safe here.

Mrs. Dare came out from the kitchen, "Oh, dear! C'mon, Elsren left you didn't she? Here have some coca (no caffeine!) and get on up the stairs. It's the first door to the left" She smiled, handed Suzume and warm cup of Coca and scooted her towards then stairs.
