Welcome to the supernatural creature's haven, Kinau. Kinau is a fictitious town on the O'ahu island of Hawaii. Why supernaturals have congregated in the island city is still unknown, but the inhabitants, human and supernatural alike, are learning to adjust to their new reality.
This site aims for a supernatural spin on a slice-of-life city, complete with an academy and college to ensure everyone has a place here.

he really wasn't the type to rescue others. well not on purpose anyways. the only one he did that for was hachi. after all he was his bodyguard. even if they laughed, they both knew his father paid him to look after the boy. he wasn't out looking for fights and people to save, but he wasn't going to stand around and do nothing. he bit his lip as the male talked.
he looked them over and knew he couldn't take them all if they decided to come at him all at once. he noticed his bag near by. he could use it was a weapon and at least take one out. he had pretty heavy books in there. a good blow to the face and it was daze if not knock one out.
he stared down the ring leader."she is my business."he wasn't lying. after all she had agreed to work on that stupid project together. he couldn't work on it if she was beat up. he sighed."either you let her go or i will take her away from you."he stood his ground as he said this.
he stared at the boys on either side."leave."he told them as he balled his fist. he looked like he was about to leave, but he wanted to make sure he caught the guy off guard. he swung his fist until his knuckles hit the guys nose. he really wasn't looking forward to a fight. he did just throw the first punch though."run!"he told vashit, but not taking his eyes off the group. he needed to get ready in case they were going to hit back.
Vashti wasn't sure if she was happy about Ezra calling her his business or not, but she stayed quiet. Then he told them that she needed to be let go or he would take her from him instead. Ezra then ordered the boys to leave but they stood there, blocking her. Ezra was first to throw a punch, with the boy having moved she was able to slip by. Ezra told her to run and at first she hesitated. "Hey, she is going to get away." One of the boys yelled, encouraging her to get a move on. She didn't run, most of the time she was able to just slip away, but having to try and out run somebody else, it wasn't something she was used to, so she ended up losing her balance and dripping over herself. She squeaked from fright, trying to collect herself as she slowly started getting up from the ground. She felt somebody grab her arm, "Let me go...." She struggled, trying to decide on her next move. She shifted into a mouse, forcing the boy to lose his grip. To her surprise the boy that was the ring leader, wasn't a fan of rodents. So he opted to not give chase after her, he turned to go the opposite direction, followed by his two friends.
I'm sure that won't be the last time I see them... God.... they are fucking perverts.... She shifted back into her human form, fixing her outfit, before looking towards Ezra. He still had gone out of his way to save her, so thanks were in order even if she really didn't want to give it. "Thanks Ezra." I bet he just wants his wallet back. I guess I better give it back to him... She pulled his wallet out of her outfit and reached out to hand it over to him. "I believe you want this back, so here." Now if he chooses to ditch me during the school project, I guess it's my loss for giving it back to him. She was hungry, wishing that she had lunch, but couldn't afford it, so she was stuck eating food off of the ground in mouse form, if she ate at all. "I suppose we should start on that project, unless you still need to get it." Or if you plan on not doing it today... I suppose either is fine.
He wasn't one to start fights and look at him now. Being a bodyguard he had a bit of training, and he at least knew how to defend himself one on one not a while group. After he suckerpunched the guy Ezra watched as he stumbled back a couple of steps. Now was the perfect time to run so he told Vashti to.
He prepared himself for a punch from the ringleader but he simply yelled at his cronies and shoved Ezra out of the way. He picked up his bag and watched as they chased Vashti. He wasn't sure what happened as eventually they were far enough away that he lost site of them. He sighed and made his way towards the direction they had chased Vashti. It wasn't long before he saw her walking towards him."idiot."he said as he shook his head."are you alright?"he asked her before he reached out and took his wallet back from her. He had almost almost forgotten about the project they were supposed to be working on."I printed the email and it's in my bag."he told her with a nod. After all that running around he had almost forgotten his sweater. He shrugged and figured he'd get it later it was torn."I'm a bit hungry how about we get something to eat and then talk about the project? My treat."he told her with a small smile. It was the least he could do after what she'd Gon through."this offer will expire soon."he said teasingly.
Vashti was surprised by Ezra's concern. "I'll be fine." She answered, grateful that he had stepped in to help her. He took his wallet back from her and told her that he printed out the email and how it was in his bag. Wasn't he wearing a sweeter earlier? "I... dunno... I don't normally let others pay." There was a reason for that and she felt nervous that he had offered to pay for her food. He was even smiling, boy was he handsome when he wanted to be. Ezra then told her this offer was going to expire, it was easy to tell that he was teasing her. "Okay, okay...." She was hungry, she didn't get to have lunch. "If you have all your things, then we can go..." She answered if she had known about his sweeter and how torn up it was, she would have offered to fix it. She had some idea on how one would sew, she had to fix holes in her outfits all the time, she also had been practicing as of lately.
I still can't believe that I had to deal with those boys.... They really need to get their head out of the gutter.... I hate it when they bug the shit out of me. And people wonder why I hate doing school projects with others. The girls are snobs and many of the boys are fucking perverts... Back home, she didn't nearly have that much trouble, but here. She had trouble like this all the time, maybe it was because she was on an island or something. I wonder why he is offering to pay for my food.... It's not like he knows that I starve most of the time. I keep that part of my life a secret. Nobody knows about it, not even the teachers.... or at least I don't think the teachers know anyway.
he shook his head. was she always getting herself in trouble? he sighed softly. he hoped she didn't make a habit of this. more him than her to be honest."you do have my wallet. so don't think of it as me paying for the food."he said teasingly."come on, its just food. you're not gonna let me suffer from hunger pains are you?"he asked as he looked at her.
"on second thought, you probably would let me suffer."he smiled once more as he finally gotten her to agree."cool, i know this really cool diner. they have almost everything. unless you're in the mood for something specific."
he checked to make sure he did before looking back at the sweater he had to slip out of."oh yeah, i left my sweater up there."he shrugged."it doesn't matter though. it was getting pretty old. i'll get it later."he said with a laugh.
"Had... But I see your point. If I take your wallet again, I'll make sure to invite you for a meal." She joked and grinned at his comment. Nah, I'm not that mean... I would either invite you or give your wallet back. The only one who gets to suffer from hunger pains is me. She didn't correct him, he didn't need any reason to figure out that she wasn't eating as well as one should be. "I'm only sometimes picky." It was better than admitting that she liked just about anything, to her food, was food. Even if the food was really gross. It still got rid of the stomach pains. Ezra then mentioned leaving his sweater up in the tree and claimed it wouldn't matter because it was old and he'd get it later. "Non sense." She stopped walking and turned back around towards the tree. Would she learn to stay out of the tree in a skirt, hell no.
Vashti found herself climbing up a second branch, keeping her balance as she grabbed the sweater gently taking it off the branch before she laid it on her arm. She then moved to seat on the branch, sliding down to the next branch. Then she sat on the branch, moving the sweater onto her shoulder so that it wouldn't fall on the ground before grabbing the tree branch, letting herself down carefully. Once on the ground she took the sweater off her shoulder to see the long hole, deciding that she would sew it for him. She made her way back towards him, "I'm ready to go now." Unless he were to ask, she wasn't going to flat out tell him that she planned to sew it, but she wouldn't voluntarily give it back to him either.
"i don't know. i mean you stole it once, you'd probably take it again. so just making sure i cover my bases."he says with a smirk.
he thought they were leaving. him leading her to his favorite place to get a bite, but she had asked him about his sweater and he watched her as she scrambled up the tree. he couldn't help thinking that she was more like a squirrel than a rat. especially the way she was quick to climb the tree.
he didn't say a word and laughed."you sure?"he teased as he started walking once more."its literally ten minutes away from the school."he told her as he continued walking towards their destination.
