《Sweet Child of Chaos》Run you clever boy

Kisa looked down at the man in front of her, wrapping her fingers around his neck as she changed their positions.
"See? That's more like it" her smirk was certainly disconcerting, she was enjoying it too much, he could feel it after all.
"Now now, I've read a lot about your kind, but never saw one myself, why don't you show me the owner of the body, huh?" The Petrova vampire asked excitedly, her eyes shining brightly and a wide grin on her face.
"Can't let that happen, sweetheart. I'm in charge right now" The nogitsune answered in annoyance, wrapping his hands around her own as he tried to overpower her hold.
"Oh that's a crying shame, I was trying to be civilized, but if that's how you want..." as much as he tried not to show, Kisa was trained to acknowledge the simplest change of a human's body, like the way his eyes darkened the moment she said it.
"I see... you haven't really seen a vampire before, have you? This would mean that you don't know what I can do while I know about you, I guess it's a big disadvantage for you, isn't it? Are you feeling angry? Frustrated?" The brunette taunted, whispering the final words as she watched his features intensely.
The vampire laughed when she saw his glare, only making the dark kitsune angrier by the second, before she threw him against another locker, making a loud bang.
"Ah no need to pout, dear! I can show you all you want to know, supernatural strength, speed..." she started, suddenly appearing behind him as she whispered in his ear while putting both hands on his head "... mental manipulation"
And with this she was inside his head, vampires often disregarded this specific ability, not because it wasn't useful, but because it was difficult.

It wasn't easy to enter someone's head, they had to be more powerful than the one they wanted to manipulate, but the thing with the mind was never about how old you were or what species, it was more about your spirit.
There was something, however, that no one knew about the Petrova family... the twins never told anyone about the harsh training their father made them pass through, they never told anyone about the things that happened on their family.
The patriarch was a Hunter, one of a very old and known lineage, of course he didn't like having two girls and no male, it was a family of male hunters after all, but it didn't stop him from training the twins to perfection, it was how they could survive for so long with the original hybrid chasing after them.
But they didn't take the same training, Kisa was the first born, she was supposed to lead their men, their father wouldn't accept failure and while that made her powerful, witty and a perfect weapon, this also broke some of her humanity.
Katerina would never admit, but she was jealous of her twin, while she fell in love with Klaus, Elijah, Damon and Stefan, which put them in danger several times, Kisa was the one always telling that they should leave and rethink the situation, she acted with her head, not with her heart.
And that made Kisa incredibly powerful in controlling other's mind, going as far as entering an Original's head without him knowing, which would in the future, cost her years of life locked in that asylum.
So entering a Nogitsune's mind? She was up for the challenge.
She could see white walls, red lines nailed on the wallls, with tons of pictures hanging from them.
Interesting
She walked slowly through the halls, careful with each turn, the lights were flickering and the walls were closing by her, until she saw something on the ground.

There he was, sitting on the ground with his arms hugging his legs as he rocked back and forth, hiding his head between them.
"Hello there, sweetheart" she immediately stopped once she saw his fearful face, raising her arms on the air in a non threatening manner.
"Hey hey hey, it's okay! I'm not that mummy thing" She saw his body relaxing for a second and took it as a permission to go on.
"H-how did you get here?" The boy whimpered, his hands shaking and his pale skin exalting the red color under his eyes, making her hickory ones soften as she remembered how she was centuries ago.
"Well, that's a good question... great question... hm, why don't we start with how I can help you and then we start on the how I do things? Cool? Perfect!" Kisa rambled, sitting down beside Stiles, who gave her a weak smile.
"...okay" he whispered quietly, raising his head a bit to look at her.
"Have you ever played Baduk?" Kisa asked, making him shake his head in a negative manner.
"It's a Japanese game that looks like chess, it starts with an empty board and each player has stones, one player gets the black while the other gets the white, can you imagine it so I can show you visually?" The vampire proposed, moving closer as he did what she said, making the board appear in front of them, which resulted in his eyes widening.
"This is your mind, sweetheart, you can create anything" She said, answering his unsaid question with a small smile before she turned her attention to the game.
"The objective of the game is to use one's stones to form territories by surrounding vacant areas of the board. It is also possible to capture the opponent's stones by completely surrounding them" She started to explain calmly, placing the stones as she demonstrated every move she could, until her head began to bang loudly and she had to place a hand on it to dull the pain.
"Sorry, sweetheart, it seems like my time here is over... you'll have to win against him alone, just remember... when you're playing against the bad guy, there are no rules"
And with this she started to disappear, leaving a panicked Stiles trying to hold her there while she escaped between his fingers, her words echoing in his mind as he screamed her name.
Now there was only the Nogitsune and him.
On the real world, Kisa laid unconscious on the ground, blood running down her nose as Malia tried to desperately wake her up with watery eyes.

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.
