I had problems with as of how I would intoduce Tycha, and I feel that it was kind of forced. I hope you won't hate me for this.
CHAPTER 2 – FEELING
Ticho Nincea looked out through the window as he sat in his office, drinking his daily cup of tea. The clock had struck half past seven a couple of minutes ago, making the purple-haired familiar prepare himself for the day’s first lesson. As he watched some of the students walk around outside school, he grinned. What he wouldn’t do to become a human student himself… Ticho suddenly shivers. He rarely shivered, so he immediately turned around. His office was empty of people, as usual. Ticho sighs. The door is suddenly flung open, and a young, short, pink-haired teacher in glasses entered the room.
“Ninetaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiilsss”, she said. “Let’s plaaaaaaay!” Ticho closed his yellow eyes and smiled.
“No thank you, miss Yasowitz,” he said, “I have to go to my first lesson soon.”
“Screw that!”
“I am afraid I cannot.”
“Eeh?!? Why?!” Ticho opens his eyes.
“I am a teacher, miss Yasowitz. I cannot simply ignore my students.”
“So, if I were one of your students, you’d play with me?”
“I am afraid not.”
“You’re a meanie! You… you… you demon!”
“Something you need?”
“I-huh?” Gregoria Yasowitz, the 17-year old teacher, abruptly lost her chain of thought. “…eh? Oh, yeah. DEMON!”
“Indeed I am.” Ticho chuckles. Yasowitz had no idea that he actually WAS a demon. Not that he tried to hide it, no- he had merely never had a reason to do so. Yasowitz puffed her cheeks as she looked up into the demons eyes.
“Fine,” she said, “I’ll leave now. Bye.” The door shut loudly behind her, and Ticho stopped grinning. Instead, he picked up a couple of papers, ate a cookie, and left the room. He couldn’t let the students wait, after all.
“Helloooo…” Howard Class, the retired old man, lay sleeping in his bed.
“Hey… wake up…” Tycha, a purple-haired girl in a bunny-girl-like outfit, poked his forehead.
“Hey… breakfast’s ready.” Howard opened his eyes.
“Hnhh…” he said sleepily, “…thanks, Tycha.” Tycha nods.
“Yup. Then, I’m going out. See ya.”
“Just be nice to the children in town. Don’t throw rocks at them again.”
“I won’t, duh.”
“Nor the pigeons.”
“…”
“Tycha!”
“Fine, fine. No throwing rocks at kids or pigeons.”
“Or something else.”
“Yeah yeah. You know you can’t really order me around, right? I’m just doing it ‘cus it’d be a bother if the police caught me again.”
“Yeah, well, I won’t bail you out next time.”
“I hear ya. Then, see ya.” Tycha leaved the apartment, with her master still in bed. She could not for the hate of the devil understand WHY Ticho would agree to work at a school, especially not since he didn’t need to feed on souls. As the female demon walked the streets, a loud sound could suddenly be heard in the distance. Tycha freezed. What in the worlds…? That feeling. She didn’t like it. She shivered. The air suddenly went so… so… strange. She looked around, and found that all humans around her were on the ground, not moving. Something really, really odd was happening, and Tycha didn’t like odd things.
