After telling his wife Futaba and his three children goodbye, Kyuubi grabbed his katana, cell phone, and paperwork then headed out of the estate to go to the wizarding college. Having been working there for a while he actually started to like teaching. Once he married into a high-class family, Kyuubi stopped being a bodyguard and just became a supportive husband and father. Though his wife did ask for his advice now and then, she could handle herself for her being the head of the family. Next in line would be his twin daughters but that would be a thought for a later date. Right now, he missed the assembly that Headmaster Magi was doing but he caught up with the announcements on his phone. Once out of the estate, Kyuubi grabbed his summoning scroll and drew his summoning insignia. Biting his finger to draw blood, he swiped his finger over the insignia and said loud and clear...
"I summon thee... Come forth... KURENAI!"
The insignia glowed red and smoke started to form around him. One minute he was alone but now beside him stood an 8ft ninetail white fox with red marking all over him. Kyuubi gave a loving pat on his beloved fox familiar. Kurenai had been with him since he first started to practice summoning magic. He climbed onto the back of the fox and got settled.
"Come along now Kurenai, there are bright young minds that await us."
Yes of course sir.
Kurenai gave a gruff noise and started to float into the sky. He could have run to the college but flying in Kyuubi opinion was a lot faster to get around. Plus he liked seeing the amazed or shocked looks of people's faces when why see a large fox flying in the sky. Holding on my the fox's neck, he felt the wind blowing in his hair as they went. Even from high about, Kyuubi loved it. The only one of his children that wanted anything to do with the summoning magic of his son Genji. Though right now, the boy could only summon a frog, he was at least giving it his all. His daughters wanted nothing to do the magic whatsoever. Sighing at the thought, Kyuubi could see the college coming into view. He would have landed in the entry yard was it was full of other people and he didn't want Kurenai to accidentally step on a student. So he went around to the side of the school, the fox landed and Jyuubi slides off its back. Giving Kurenai a pat, Kyuubi took the summoning scroll and tore it up, the ninetail fox finishing back into the spirit world for the time being.
Kyuubi went to the side entrance of the college and walked into the building. There weren't many who used this door but it was mostly for teachers anyway. Seeing no one near where he was, Kyuubi made his way to the teacher's lounge. Right now, he wanted to get some paperwork down in peace before he had to be around the students. Coming to the door, he took out his cell phone and put in the unlock key for the door to open for him. Walking in, he notices that he was the only one there. Siting his katana on the table that was beside one of the couches, Kyuubi sat down and pulled out his papers and giving over the student roster for his class.
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ " T h e Β Β Β f u t u r e Β Β Β i s Β Β a l w a y s Β u n c e r t a i n "
" B u t Β Β t h e r e Β Β Β i s Β Β a l w a y s Β Β Β t h e Β Β p o w e r Β Β t o Β Β c h a n g e Β Β f a t e " Β Β ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
The door opened again, and in walked Gwendolyn Durant, another professor. She sat down on a couch and let out a sigh, her eyes looking completely in front of her in a unflinching gaze. "...another one..." she waved a hand and a sketchpad and pencil appeared. She started to quickly draw something on the sketchpad, without even looking at it. She paused for only a few moments before continuing. When it was finished, she saw it was a dark shadow looming over a woman's body. She put the sketchpad down. "Fates can change...but only those who seek can save a life..." she wrote those words down before pausing and finally relaxing.
Kyuubi had his nose in his work when he heard the long doors opening up. He looked up for a second and saw that it was Gwendolyn Durant. He gave her a nod in greeting and went back to getting his class papers done. Kyuubi picked up his phone and looked at his class roster and saw that there were only two students so far taking his class. He sighed.
'Seems like summoning magic isn't a popular class to be in.'
He saw Professor Durant drawing on her sketchpad and knew that she was having some sort of vision. Kyuubi watched in curiosity at what she was doing and couldn't imagine how she could deal with a feeling like that. After she seemed to relax, he realized the vision was over. Sitting his papers to the side, he leaned forward slightly and asked...
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ " T h e Β Β Β f u t u r e Β Β Β i s Β Β a l w a y s Β u n c e r t a i n "
" B u t Β Β t h e r e Β Β Β i s Β Β a l w a y s Β Β Β t h e Β Β p o w e r Β Β t o Β Β c h a n g e Β Β f a t e " Β Β ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Gwendolyn paused for a moment but then smiled and nodded. She was still looking forward with an unflinching gaze, that kind of being her trademark. "Ah, Professor Tsukamoto. I did not know there was another in person in this room. Yes, I am well. As you know, I was seeing something within the void...it was...dark this time...fairly unclear. I do not hope it comes to pass." she said and then looked in the man's direction. She gave him a warm smile as she put her pencil down as well. Her cloudy eyes seemed to swirl, though vision was still lost to them. "I trust you are faring well? I have just finished one of my classes...starting from the beginning is always the...hardest part of painting...but it is also the most rewarding." she said as she was tracing her fingers along the sketchbook, getting charcoal all over them without her really knowing.
"Oh it's quite alright Professor Durant. If I had your magical ability then I too would not notice the ones around me. Though the future that you saw seems very mysterious and fighting indeed."
After hearing about the vision Gwendolyn had was very worrying for him. He hoped that nothing like that would happen but the future was always a fickle and gray area. It was the future for a reason and sometimes you just can't help the outcome. Though, it could also change to make a different future altogether. Kyuubi smiled at her and put his papers away, stretching his arms up to pop some of the joints in his back.
"And I am faring well. I just got here, to be honest, and trying to get everything ready for my evening class. There's a lot of prep work that goes with summoning magic and not as easy as some people think. Though I would have to agree with you, starting with the basics is hard but the outcome will be a success at the end of the day."
Kyuubi took out a summoning scroll with his insignia. He sliced his finger and wiped the blood on it, the magic flowed through him making the insignia glow then called forth Kurenai. Instead of the 8ft original form of his ninetail fox, out popped a white ninetail fox that was the size of a small dog. Kurenai sat on his master's lap and looked at Gwendolyn.
Hello Master... You have summoned me, what is your wish for me to do?
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ " T h e Β Β Β f u t u r e Β Β Β i s Β Β a l w a y s Β u n c e r t a i n "
" B u t Β Β t h e r e Β Β Β i s Β Β a l w a y s Β Β Β t h e Β Β p o w e r Β Β t o Β Β c h a n g e Β Β f a t e " Β Β ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Gwendolyn nodded as she traced her fingers on the sketchpads. She stiffened a little bit. "It is...I only hope that this future can be changed. It signifies death... the destruction of one's soul and innocence...I can only hope that person finds help...whoever they are." she closed her eyes for a moment, though it wasn't much of a difference for her. She sensed something...off. But couldn't pinpoint where. "I understand that summoning magic is tough. It takes much energy to summon larger things. Such as your familiar...Kurenai." she smiled and turned her head to the smaller creature. She could sense the presence of another. She gave a gentle wave. Before long, she looked toward the door and heard the sounds of running. "I...have a bad feeling...Kyuubi..."
Kyuubi was about to answer her when he too started to hear running from outside the staff lounge. He placed Kurenai on the couch and got up to have a look at what was going on. He opened the door and looked out. Students are running all over the place. Some look uncaring but others had a look of shock on their faces. Kyuubi saw a student walk past him and he quickly grabbed their shoulder.
"Care to tell me what's going on? Why all of the running?"
"There was a murder in the library and it was one of the students. Of course, I didn't know them, but it's still not a pretty picture sir."
Kyuubi looked over at Gwen giving her a look saying if this was the vision she was talking about. If so then this situation just got even worse. Looking back at the student, letting go of their shoulder. The student looked back at the professor.
"I think most of the teachers have it under control and what I've heard so far was that the headmaster was going to lock down the library for the time being. If that is all sir?"
"Yes of course. Be on your way."
Kyuubi have a sigh watching the kid go on their way and reached a hand up, rubbing the back of his head. He closed the lounge door and went back over to the couch he was sitting at and sat down one more. He never thought that something like this would happen at this school. He didn't sign up for this but he would just have to deal and see what help he could provide. He looked at Gwen.
"Have you ever imagined that something like this would happen at this school? Will this be the only time or the first of many?"
Merlin appears in the corner of the room form a small rune he had placed there,he just wanted to relax a little but didn't expect any one else to be in the room so when he turned and seen two other professors he stops to look at them.
"Hello Professor Kyuubi and lady Gwendolyn it's a pleasure to see you two."
He says before he walks over and starts preparing some tea as he still didn't know what was going on.

Gwendolyn paused upon hearing the news. She took the sketchbook she had just drawn in and tracing it over her fingers, smudging the charcoal a little. "It has begun...a wave of events that will rewrite the history of this university...I fear that this will not be the only time this happens..." she replied, and closed the book. "However...the future can be changed...fate is not set in stone...but I am unsure who will bring this change...but it can occur..." she smiled a little, trying to stay optimistic. Then Merlin appeared in. She waited until she heard a voice to confirm who it was, not looking at him and starting at the wall ahead of her. "Ah, Professor Merlin...I hope you are well in these trying times..."
Kyuubi reached over pated Kurenai's head. How much worse things happen at this university? He just didn't know what he could do or even how to help. Does he even have the power to prevent another casualty? He would just have to find out when the time came. He listened to what Gwen was saying and would have to agree.
"I do hope the future will change. If any more casualties were to happen, this university would have to close down. I just hope my wife doesn't get wind and demand me home... She'll be hysterical."
He gave a hardy laugh then heard a noise over in the corner and when he looked up, he saw Melin appear. Kyuubi gave him a nod and leaned back in his seat.
"Hello to you as well Melin. You must have heard what's going on here at school. It's just so tragic and frightening."
Merlin turns with a cup of tea in his hand and looks at the two of them.
"I was helping a young lady to find her dorm,so as for anything going on in the main building I don't know whats going on,and i am doing alright I suppose how are you doing well ."
He says before taking a sip of his tea then he sits down,as he dose his Phoenix appears on his shoulder in a flash of fire and Merlin pets its head softly.
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ " T h e Β Β Β f u t u r e Β Β Β i s Β Β a l w a y s Β u n c e r t a i n "

Gwendolyn took it upon herself to deliver the dire news. It was in fact her area of expertise. "The flame of a students life was snuffed out. The staff found his lifeless form in the library...aside from those details...I know nothing else...but I believe it will not stop." she opened her sketchbook to a different page. A castle of inverted colors. "This place will be a place of fear...misfortune...pain. Unless we stem the person causing the issues. Fate can be changed, but it will not change on its own.β she got a little dizzy and sat down, closing the book. Her power was pretty overwhelming at some points. She let out a breath and shook her head. "Forgive me, I need a moments respite."
Kyuubi gave a heavy sigh and rubbed his face with both of his hands. At least Merlin was clueless through all that but once Gwen told him the facts, he wanted to know what Merlin thought about this whole situation.
"I really think Magi should have a staff meeting and get the teachers on the same page with what is going on and how we as teachers should handle the students. I don't the students to die and have it on my conscience when I know I could have prevented it somehow."
He thought about what kind of person could even do something like this. The school was supposed to be a safe place for the students to learn, was it not?
Merlin turned after hearing about the killing,he slowly sips his tea and takes a deep breath.
"I am sure the headmaster has things in hand but i agree we should be put on notice so we can stop another life form being cut short.
He says before sipping more of his tea,he then puts the cup on the table and taps his finger on the table,a faint glow comes form his hand as a book appears and he starts writing in it.
