It was the same shit every time I came home anymore. My father would ignore me and my mother would try to console me. Tonight was different though. It was almost four in the morning when I finally came home from flying. It felt good to stretch my wings for a few hours. If the sunrise was not in about 45 minutes and my diaper in dire need of changing I would have stayed out longer.

 

With the entire neighborhood still asleep it was safe for me to land without fear of being seen with wings and flying. Flying was the most wonderful thing in the world to me and it always calmed me down so that my disagreements with my father would not get too hot and make me say things that were not really meant.

 

Upon landing in the backyard it was time to walk back in and change before my diaper leaked. This was one of the last few nights that would allow me the freedom to fly as school would be starting in another week so my sleep and awake times would have to be changed as well as my time for when flying would be allowed.

 

My father was not up yet but soon would be so it was in my best interest to change my diaper and get to my room before he woke up and saw me with my wings not hidden. This was a subject of much irritation to him as he felt that my wings marked me as a freak and unfit for eventual marriage into a good family. That and my incontinence upset him greatly and he hated to see my wings mar my beautiful frame.

 

The only thing he approved of it seemed was my love of music. I can play the flute, the guitar, and a little bit of violin, but my favorite instrument is the small harp that is small enough to be carried in a hand case. The music he approves of and never tells me to stop when playing. He has said on numerous occasions that my music is a gift from the ancestors and the spirits and therefore not to be frowned upon.

 

It is too bad he does not see my wings the same way but one can always hope he will eventually change his mind. Until then, my wings are kept tightly folded under my clothes and no one but my family and our doctor know about them. My mother does not agree with my father about my wings but she will not go against him and speak her thoughts out loud to him about my wings.

 

If all goes well then after this year I will be college bound and no longer have to worry about what my father thinks of my wings. Three schools so far have expressed an interest in having me come visit their campuses but for reasons unknown to me my father has refused to let me visit them. When my next birthday comes in just about nine months he will no longer be able to stop me from going to look into college.

 

On my birthday I turn 18 and a large amount of money from a trust fund will become mine to do with as I please. It is my desire to pay for a college education with a good part of that money. The only way that it would not come to me is if I were to marry instead of going to school. Then it would go to my adoptive parents and new husband. On that front there were no worries as my father has refused to let me date anyone.

 

My diaper was changed and the wet one thrown away into the diaper genie. I walked out of the bathroom while pulling a clean shirt on over my tightly tucked, and wrapped around my body, wings. It was uncomfortable but better than letting my father have another excuse to yell at me about something. Having him tell me that my wings are a disgrace and that having them brings shame and dishonor to the family almost as much as my diapers do is never an enjoyable way to start a day. It frustrates me that he can be so damned backwards and stuck in the middle ages it seems with his point of view.

 

I yawned sleepily then made my way to my room for some much needed sleep. At least in my dreams there was freedom from the oppression of my father and the meek and passive attitude of my mother siding with my father in everything regardless of how she felt. I swear, my family is stuck in feudal Japan at times. My head hit the pillow with sleep claiming me shortly after that.

 

It was almost noon when sleep faded from me and the sunlight woke me up. A quick stretch and it was time to get out of bed and face the day. My wet diaper hung heavily in dire need of a change so it was off to the bathroom for a shower and then clean clothes and a clean diaper. My mother was already up and smiled at me as she passed me on the way to the bathroom. “Morning, mom. Dad still mad at me for going out last night?”

 

My mom sighed and shook her head. “You even have to ask? He hates it when you go out flying at night. You know how he views your wings, honey. They are lovely and complete you, but he is stubborn in his views. I can not go against his wishes no matter how wrong he is. It would not end well and I will not divide this family over it. Just try to get through one more year and then you can choose a college and get away from here. Now go get changed before I change you myself.”

 

I hugged her and kissed her on the cheek before going to the bathroom for a shower and then a change of clothes and a fresh diaper. Once my shower was finished it was time for me to get dressed and face the day with my wings carefully concealed beneath a shirt that would hide the fact they even existed. This was normal for me but that did not mean it was fun or liked by me. It was uncomfortable and if my father had not been such an asshole about my wings they would not ever be hidden.

 

The weather was still nice outside so without waiting for my father to come home and bitch at me again about something that was no fault of mine I left. My father never knew about the old abandoned outdoor amphitheater that was well hidden so it was one of the few places where he could not find me. The place was great for privacy and allowed my mind to wander while playing with no one to tease me about my playing.

 

Getting there on foot required me to take two buses then hike for about 30 minutes, but was worth it for the quiet time alone from my father. In my backpack was a small harp and my flute as well as the changing supplies. Three diapers were enough to get me through the day while the music calmed me down and helped keep me sane.

 

Today was no different while playing and relaxing. The music soothed my confused and chaotic thoughts so that the stress of dealing with my father would be less difficult to handle. After tuning up my small harp I began playing it for a little while. After an hour of playing and softly singing I finally switched to my flute after putting my small harp back in it's case. Surveying the hundreds of empty seats showed the place to be empty as always and no one as an audience which is how it is every time.

 

With my flute in hand I pulled it to my lips and began playing a soft tune then switched it bit by bit to something different as my mind wandered for a bit. When I finally stopped playing I had gone through two of the three spare diapers and the sun was starting to get low in the sky. Since it was not a good idea to risk my father getting angry it was time to get going and hike out of here and catch the bus to go home.

 

It always seemed to take forever to get home on the bus when she would rather just fly home under her own power and be able to get there without anyone minding that she had wings and the ability to fly. Flying home would have taken maybe 20 minutes but it would infuriate my father to no end and earn another beating with a belt like the last one I had gotten when I was 12. My father hated my wings but the urge to fly was too great to resist so in the middle of the day I went flying. Upon landing father was furious and the beating put me in the hospital for two weeks.

 

As the bus ride went on she remembered how angry her father had gotten when she could not be toilet trained and how many times he had torn her diaper off of her and spanked her until his arm finally got too tired to swing anymore. After that he used a belt on her backside when he got mad about something she did or if something did not go his way.

 

Twice she was beat until she could not sit lay on her back until she healed. The first time was when she asked why he hated her wings so much. He turned and punched her then took a belt to her until he could no longer swing and she was black and blue with welts everywhere. She had only been 13 at the time. The second time was when she was 14 and he came home mad about something and beat her severely without saying a word to her. She almost died that time and had been too afraid to fight back.

 

Her mother nursed her back to health and managed to calm him down so it did not ever happen again. She had grown into a lovely looking young lady now with a love of music. When she first started playing in secret no one knew until almost a year ago when he came home early and she was playing a piece of music from an ancient Japanese play. He stopped at her door and listened as she played. The music was incredible and at first he thought she had found a recording that some professional had done.

 

He approached her when she was finally putting away her flute and her harp and at first she had been afraid he was going to hit her for playing music but he instead told her she was gifted by the spirits of their ancestors to be able to play such lovely music. He gave her his blessings to play music from the many ancient Japanese plays and told her to be thankful to the ancestors for the gift.

 

He still disliked the wings and her incontinence that marred an otherwise perfectly lovely young woman. No matter what type of diaper she used he always found fault with her for having to change so often or for them being so thick and noticeable. She used plastic backed ones and he complained about them making too much noise as they crinkled. When she used the cloth like ones he fussed about them having to be changed more often.

 

It finally occurred to me that he would never accept my need for protection and that no matter what others might think of my wings that he would see them only as an abomination. It saddens me to be thought of as a mistake by my father and he has told me on a few separate occasions that he wishes now that my mother had given birth to a son instead of the worthless and cursed thing that is me. Those words stung me far worse than any slap or punch ever could and they will haunt me to my dying days.

 

It seems that the only thing my father approves of are my looks and my music. As for my looks, he hates my wings and my need for diapers as they mar what would otherwise be a perfect daughter in his eyes. Since we moved to this town five years ago after something happened to my father while working for the company he has been unhappy and has taken it out on me.

 

It is certain that my mother still loves him, but that love is not returned. To him she has fallen from grace by giving birth to a winged abomination forced to have control issues for life. Why my mother does not divorce him is a mystery to me. My thoughts are interrupted when my stop finally comes into view. A pull of the cord signaling a stop gets the driver of the bus to pull over and let me out to walk the last three blocks back to the house that feels more like a prison than a home.

 

The only good thing is that there is only one more year of school before my freedom is earned. Once this year is over then it will simply be a matter of selecting a college and moving out for good. Maybe if my chosen career goes well my father will finally accept me but it is unlikely. It would take a miracle to get him to accept me as for who I truly am.

 

All too soon the house comes into sight. A quick look at my watch shows the time to be 7:30 pm. My father does not want me out past 7:00 pm and gets upset over any little mistake made by me. He is going to be mad when I come home 30 minutes late. It will not matter that the time was spent playing music alone and not having sex with some boy. I will still be accused of doing exactly that or worse when he sees me.

 

I stop at the door, Take a deep breath to calm my nerves and tell myself, “just keep quiet and endure it for just one more year then you will be free.” My hand turns the knob and pushes the door open to allow me to enter the prison one more time. Once inside the house my room is straight ahead and up the stairs then the second door on the right.

 

The door shut behind me and three steps were taken before my father cut me off. He had been drinking again and this would make him more prone to violence than normal. In an effort to avoid conflict I lowered my gaze and bowed formally to him before speaking. “My sincere apologies for my lateness honorable father. I lost track of time while playing my..”

 

He cut me off by holding up a hand. “I do not want to hear your excuses. You choose not to listen to me and to disrespect me by breaking the rules with no care as to why the rules are there. Time and again you refuse to follow my rules and that must stop. It is my hope that you at least used protection to avoid becoming pregnant. An unwanted child would be foolish and dishonorable.”

 

“I am not pregnant father. I have never been with a boy for so much as even a kiss. All the rules you have set for me to follow have been followed. My wings are kept hidden out of sight so no one knows about them. I have kept my health issue a secret as well. Today I honestly lost track of time playing my music. Even that is done where no one but me will hear it. I promise father that is the truth.”

 

He looked at me a minute then finally turned and walked off. My mother walked in and hugged me. “Give him time and he will calm down. Now we should all sit and eat before dinner gets cold, but first you need to change before you leak.” How she always seemed to know when my diaper needed changing is most likely going to remain a mystery to me forever.

 

With a quick trip to my room and then a stop in the bathroom it was finally time to eat dinner and for a change there was no need to worry about leaking since my diaper was changed just before dinner. Dinner was a quiet affair as usual even though my father ate with us for a change. My mother served my father and I quietly as always and once were served she sat down and ate with us.

 

My mother broke the silence finally. “You have school in a few days so we need to get you measured for new clothes. We want you to look your best for school and not have to worry about your clothes not keeping you secrets. Tonight after dinner is cleaned up we will measure you then tomorrow we go shopping. New clothes that fit correctly will make things better for all of us.” “I know it is not likely to make any difference, but can I please stop hiding my wings?” My dad spoke up and answered the question. “You will keep those horrid things concealed. They mar your beauty and I will hear no more of this foolish nonsense of showing them off to the world and ruining everything that has been put into motion.”

 

This was no surprise to me but it was a question that had to be asked. It would do no good to try to persuade him to change his mind once he made it up about anything. To keep the peace and avoid arguments I simply fell back on an old defense that still worked to keep things calm. “Yes Father. Your wisdom in this will prevail and it will be as you say honorable father.”

 

My mother quietly smiled at me and said nothing as my father quietly got up from the table and went to his study to work on business projects like always. Once he was out of reach my mother let out a sigh of relief. “You are getting good at defusing his anger but be careful. He hates your wings and does not like to talk about them. Now come, help me get the dishes done and then we can measure you for some new clothes.”

 

With my help the dishes were done and put away in a short time. Once we were done my mother got out the tape measure and began to measure me and write down the measurements on a notepad. This made me curious as to why she wanted such detailed measurements but when my mother decided to keep secrets it was best to not pry. As it was it took my mother almost an hour to finish getting measurements. When she was done I was given a copy of the measurements for myself.

 

My mother took me shopping the next day at a high end clothing stores for new clothes which aroused my suspicion even more. My mother merely smiled as we looked over all the clothes with a careful eye for what looked best on me. It was difficult to get them to fit right with my wings adding extra bulk under the shirts I tried on.

 

We were at the fourth store with nothing purchased yet when the lady helping select some clothes for us to try on looked carefully at me and smiled. “Is there a reason you are hiding your wings?” “Sadly, yes. Can you help my mother find some clothes that help the wings remain hidden?” “Tall order, but with a little work it can be done.”

 

I stretched my wings out fully for a few seconds to relieve the ache of having them so tightly folded for so long. The lady measured me again with my wings outstretched and then with my wings folded. With this new set of measurements she was able to help find clothes that fit me and helped keep my wings concealed. The shirts fit fairly well and kept the wings hidden easily but were still uncomfortable. I hate keeping my wings hidden and it is uncomfortable.

 

We left the store with several boxes of fine clothes and it made me even more curious what the hell was going on. “Mom, what is going on? We've never bought clothes this expensive before. Father didn't even fuss about my request to quit hiding my wings and let it go sooner than normal. Something is up and it would be easier if you told me what you know. Father is planning something and wants me to look as nice as possible.”

 

“Your father does have something in mind but he has not told me what. He has only told me that he wants me to find you some very nice clothes to help you look your very best. He still does not want you to reveal your wings to the world so that at least has not changed. Trying to pry secrets from the mind of your father is not an easy thing to do and it is not something I like doing. Just give it some time and he will let you know what he has in mind soon enough.”

 

We made it home with all of the packages and immediately I went into the bathroom to change my diaper which was threatening to leak. Once done with that I grabbed my harp, flute, two diapers and left for some time to think. Missing the bus made me frustrated enough to almost use my wings but if my father found out there would hell to pay. So I started walking to the next bus stop a mile away.

 

It took me a few minutes to get to the next stop in time to just miss the next bus that was running a few minutes ahead of schedule. With no other bus for another hour and a long walk ahead of me I almost slugged a sign post in frustration. With my frustration mounting an alley proved to be a convenient place to adjust my shirt carefully by pulling a set of two well concealed strings. The shirt had two well concealed and padded openings that allowed my wings to unfold and stretch out.

 

With my wings fully in view and stretching out I sighed in relief for a moment before Jumping into the sky as my wings flapped to help provide lifting force while the distance between me and the ground increased as my wings carried me higher into the sky. Watching from a doorway with a bag in his hands a was young boy about the same age as me.

 

At the time it was not known that he had seen me as my wings took me into the sky. Kazuo watched in wonder as the lovely young lady extended her large wings and then took to the sky. He smiled as she vanished into the distance and soon she was out of sight. “Beautiful. Hope I see her again.” He threw the bag of trash in a dumpster then went back inside.

 

Kazuo walked in and finished the last of the cleaning and restocking for his shift before finally grabbing his jacket and leaving for the day with his thoughts drifting to the beautiful girl with wings he had seen as she took to the air with her lovely wings flapping to provide lift. His biss saw the distant smile on his face and stopped to tease him.

 

“Never seen you so happy to take the trash out before. Find something nice out there and forget to tell the rest of us about it?” “Just saw an angel disguised as a beautiful girl is all. She looked familiar too. Hope I see her again.” “Brian laughed. “Who knows, anything is possible. Maybe you can get her attention by playing that guitar of yours and serenading her. If the horrible noise it makes doesn't scare her off then nothing will.”

 

“Kazuo laughed and grabbed his jacket as well as his guitar then left for the day to go play some music where no one would tease him about his playing. The old outdoor amphitheater was not used anymore since the city built a new arena complex five years ago. He loved going there and playing quietly with only the birds and wind for company.

 

I know father would be mad if he knew I had flown here in the daylight but having missed the bus twice and having to wait an hour for another one was frustrating so I decided to risk a bit of daylight flying. It felt so nice to be able to feel the warm sunlight on my wings as I flew in the daylight for the first time in over a year.

 

It was tempting to skip playing some music and just fly for a while but the risk of discovery was too great. If someone spotted me and my father heard about it then he would be furious with me for not only flying in the daylight but for letting myself be seen and it possibly coming back to him that someone had found out that he had an avian in his family.

 

With the usual spot for me playing in sight my smart move would have been to land and conceal my wings and then play for a while before stopping to change my diaper and then eventually going home. With me already in the sky it was too good of a day to resist flying more and working out the kinks in my wings with a few minutes of extra time in the sky.

 

After an additional 25 minutes of flying It was time to finally land before someone spotted me flying. Even if they did not recognize me it would still anger him greatly and that is never a good thing. So it was with this in mind that my tie in the air came to an end and found me landing on the stage and then carefully concealing my wings. My diaper was a little damp but not in need of an immediate change just yet.

 

After getting my wings tucked back in and then set back down it was time to decide which instrument to play today. My harp was my favorite but the flute was also fun to play as well. In the end it was the harp that found it's way into my hands to be played. After a few minutes of tuning the harp up my fingers began playing a tune that had taken some time to master as it was very complex.

 

After a few hours of playing my harp and my flute my mind finally relaxed and let me think straight. This clarity also reminded of the fact that my diaper was wet and in desperate need of change or there would be consequences. Reluctantly my harp and flute were packed away and taken with me to a secluded spot where my wet diaper could be removed without fear of anyone seeing it or the bottom half of my wings.

 

After a change it was time to go back to the house and face my father and his stupid attitude about my wings. Perhaps the walk back would give me a chance to think things through and figure out why he was so concerned about me having the very best clothing he could afford. Something was not right with him and it made me worry about he had planned for me. If only mother would tell me what was going on.

 

The damned buses in this town were doing another round of not wanting to stop if they were running a few minutes late so as a result the bus just passed by me without even slowing down. My attempt at catching the next one a few blocks over met with the same results as it passed by in a hurry without stopping. There were no real options for getting home right away unless I took to the sky and risked exposing my secret to the world.

 

Kazuo finally reached the old amphitheater with only about an hour to play before he would have to get going. He reached the stage and was taking out his guitar when he spotted it. Laying on the stage was a huge feather too big for any bird. It was light green and fading to a reddish color near the bottom tip of it. Kazuo reached down and picked up the feather off of the stage and smiled as he thought of his sighting earlier out behind his work.

 

“She was here!” He smiled as he realized he had spoken out loud to no one. He put the feather into his guitar case, smiling then set about working on a new tune that was inspired by the girl with lovely wings he had seen earlier. He could only hope that he saw her again and could somehow find a way to talk to her without getting tongue tied like he seemed to do whenever he wanted to talk to a pretty girl. Finally he sat down again and started working on the music and the lyrics to his new song.

 

There was perhaps an hour until the sun would set and with no hope of catching the bus it was with reluctance that a call was placed to my mother in the vain hopes she could come get me. Her phone rang several times before going to her voicemail. It would do no good to call my father as he would tell me to just walk and then blame me for being late and not listen to my side of the story. With him there was only his side of things and nothing else mattered, even if it was the truth.

 

There is a small forested park with a few good areas to hide in about nine blocks from home so the only real question was where to stop at then hide my wings once more. My biggest concern was finding somewhere nearby to fly off from without being seen. After a few minutes of looking for a good secluded spot and not finding there was no real choice but to just go for it and hope no one got a good look at me.

 

A quick look around showed no one watching me when I entered the alley and ducked into a doorway just out of sight of most of the rest of the area. A quick pull of the concealed drawstrings allowed the wing openings in my top to open fully and thus allowed my wings to be given freedom of movement. As always, it felt great to unfold my wings and let them hang naturally instead of being held tightly folded up and wrapped around against my body.

 

I stepped out into the alley and spread my wings fully. A kid walking down the alley gasped in astonishment as he saw me for a moment before I smiled at him and then took to the sky as fast as my wings could carry me. Once in the air it was only a short ten minute flight to the park near my house where my landing could be done with no one to see me until my wings were folded and hidden again.
 

It always felt great to fly but this time someone had seen me. It was a little boy so there was not much danger of anyone believing him but it still mean that more caution would have to be used to prevent anyone from seeing me flying. If word got back to my father then it would mean a world of hurt for me. If only my real father was still alive then it would be different and keeping this part of me a secret would not be necessary.

 

It was not going to do me any good to dwell on the death of my real parents since it had happened when I was six years old and did not yet have wings. It had been a horrible day when the news of their death was given to me and it felt like my world had crashed and burned around me. After spending six months in foster care an oriental couple finally adopted me.

 

When they found out that my bladder and bowels did not work normally they tried to toilet train me with no luck. In my entire life I have never worn panties. The closest thing to them was pull up training pants that were constantly wet or messy since my bladder would release urine or my bowels would dump a messy load into them at random times. With this finally confirmed by a doctor they finally put me back in diapers and gave up on trying to toilet train me.

 

About three years later my wings started growing in and my body began changing big time. When they found out about my wings my newly adopted mother accepted it and comforted me when they hurt. My new father hated them and let me know in no uncertain terms that he did not wish to see them as they marred the attractive woman that I was going to become.

 

When I was 12 I learned that it was possible for me to fly. It was a great time for me until my father caught me flying one day in the daylight and in a drunken rage beat the hell out of me with a belt until my mother finally grabbed him and threw him across the room to save my life from his drunken rage. I never spent time in the hospital from the beating but never trusted him again. He hated my wings and never told me why. It was never discussed unless I wanted a beating for talking about them.

 

My thoughts came back to the here and now as my landing area was coming into view. After looking at every bit of it carefully a landing spot was picked finally for me to land safely without being seen. With a sigh and a bit of sad reluctance a series of tight turns dropped my speed considerably so that my landing could be done safely without me crashing into the trees. A final look revealed no one in sight as I dropped out of the sly and landed in a small clearing with no one around to see me.

 

It took a few minutes to get my wings folded and wrapped around my body tight enough to be concealed beneath my shirt without leaving a large bulge anywhere. With the wings concealed and my my wing openings closed tightly it was time to go back to the home that was beginning to feel more and more like a prison.

 

Upon arriving at the house a few minutes later my father was arguing with my mother. Her voice could not be heard as she stayed fairly quiet even when he would get mad and yell at her. I heard him through the door as he yelled at her question. “She will do what is best for the family and that is final. Tomorrow we will take her to the doctor to have those horrid things removed for good! Once she has recovered then she will be introduced to her husband and the marriage date will be set! Now take your damned medicine and stay out of affairs that do not concern you!”

 

My mind whirled in shock. Marriage? Have my wings cut off? Tears rolled down my face as my whole body shook from shock and sadness. I could not loose my wings! Better to kill me than take my wings from me! An arranged marriage after having me mutilated by some butcher? The door flew open and a voice barely recognizable as my own came from me.

 

“NO! Anything but that! I can't live without my wings! Better to kill me now and spare me the horror of living that way!” My father turned in his rage as my mother stood staring at something in her hand for a moment then threw it down. “You are a dishonorable brat! You will have those horrible abominations removed and then the marriage will take place! You are not the head of this family and have no say in this! My word is law and you will obey or pay the price for that disobedience as you did the last time!”

 

He slapped me hard across the face and for a moment it was tempting to hit him back as hard as I could. “You will have those things removed and you will marry who I say you will marry or you will taste my belt again!” “Never again father! There will be no marriage without love and there will be no mutilating of me to please your drunken ideas of how I should look and be!” “Insolent child!”

 

Before he could hit me with his belt mother stepped in between us. “No! This is not right and I will not let you hurt her again no matter what the cost to me! This ends now or I leave and take her with me! I love you but this can not continue any longer!” My father stared at her a moment then finally stormed off.

 

Mother turned to me with tears in her eyes. “Father will be angry for a while so it is best you avoid him until he calms down. I must talk to him now and try to make him understand what he has done here tonight. No matter what happens, remember that I love you and always have. Now go to your room and avoid him until he calms down.

 

End part one

Part two

The next few says were a blur as the realization that things had changed settled into my mind. Father would not talk to me and every time he saw me he had a drink in his hand and would only give me a disgusted look. He never said a thing about my wings or my diapers when I had to change them. Mother was sad and tried to put up a brave front for me but she was wrestling with her own demons as well. My father was tearing us all apart with his drinking.

 

School registration was a pain as my mind could not focus on my classes and I had to force myself to go back over the list of classes again to make sure everything was correct. It was a long three hour task to get registered for my classes and once done my diaper was in dire need of changing again. This was not how I wanted my school year to start.

 

The only upside is that after a quick change there was a stretch of three hours before my presence was expected back at the house. The old auditorium is used for storage only now so it was perfect for me to sneak in and get in some time playing some music to calm me down before returning to the house and more of the silent treatment from my father.

 

When no one was nearby it was a simple matter of slipping in through a side door that had a broken latch on it. It surprised me to hear the sound of someone playing a guitar in the empty auditorium with no one to listen but me. The acoustic guitar sounded good and the tune was slow and calm with a rhythm that put even my troubled mind at ease.

 

It was an easy task to sneak closer to see who was playing as there was a lot of junk to hide behind to avoid being seen. Sitting on the edge of the stage was a nice looking boy with an old acoustic guitar in his hands. His playing was slow and easy going for a while until the tune began to change to reflect a darker feeling in it. The tune was well played but it was never meant to be played on a guitar and would sound better on a harp.

 

It was a tune that had taken me almost two months to finally master and this guy was trying to adapt it to the guitar. After a few minutes more he stopped, stretched and then began playing a new tune. The music in this tune was good enough to almost make me want to join in but my common sense told me to that if he had wanted an audience he would not be playing here where no one would hear him play.

 

After listening a few more minutes my wings started to feel exceptionally cramped so it was time to leave and find a place to stretch them out for a few minutes at least to ease the ache in them. After navigating the maze of junk I found myself backstage where the music still could be heard but neither of us could see the other.

 

With no time to waste my shirt came off and my wings almost seemed to heave a sigh of relief to be allowed to stretch out for a few minutes. Fanning them back and forth created a bit of a breeze and caused a pile of junk to topple noisily to the floor. This seemed to be all the excuse my bowels needed to unload into the seat of my diaper.

 

Quickly tucking my wings around me and pulling my shirt on hastily I ran for the exit and the nearest restroom to change the horrible mess in my diaper. The exit came into sight and within seconds I was once more back in the main hall and heading quickly to the restroom to change once more. Again, this is not how the first day of school was supposed to go.

 

Kazuo jumped and almost dropped his guitar when he heard the loud crash of debris from somewhere behind him and backstage. After taking a few seconds to get his heart rate calmed down he made his way back stage just in time to see the girl with the wings as she ran off. He did not get a look at her face but recognized the wings instantly. This time he was close enough to see some of her figure and to his eyes she was very pretty. A single feather on the hall floor was all that was left to prove to him she was real.

 

“My angel was here!” He then blushed a little as he realized he had talked aloud to no one. He held the feather in his hand gently and wondered who she was and why she had been spying on him. A few minutes later and he carefully packed up his guitar and the second feather before quietly slipping from the old auditorium.

 

The mess had spread everywhere and had taken almost half a package of wipes to clean off before taping a fresh diaper in place. The messy diaper had been deposited in a plastic immediately to reduce the stench. Her used wipes were tossed in another small plastic bag then tossed into the trash can on her way out. She was thankful no one had seen her.

 

Kazuo walked back home to his house where his mother was waiting for him once more. “You finally decided to come home I see. What kept you so long?” “I was playing and lost track of time. I also got a glimpse of my angel again, and this time I was able to see her a little closer than last time.” “I see. Did you at least get her name this time?”

 

“No mother. She didn't want to be seen by me just yet so I only caught a glimpse of her as she left the area. Maybe next time she will let me see her face so I can see who she is and then have a chance to find her and talk to her.” My mother laughed as always. “She is real mother and I can prove it. I have two of her feathers. “You sure you don't just have some feathers from a hawk? We do have a lot of those in this town you know.”

 

I picked up my guitar case and opened it up tp retrieve the two carefully preserved feathers that I had found dropped in two places where I had chosen to play where no one would hear me and be disturbed by the music. I handed the feathers to my mother and she looked at them carefully. “They are very pretty and bigger than any bird I've ever seen. Where exactly did you find them at?”

 

I found one at school in the old auditorium back stage and the other at the outdoor amphitheater where I go to play when the weather is warm. I want to find her and find out why she is so afraid of being seen. Surely with wings that big and color she can't be that hard to find.” My mother handed me one of the feathers back and kept the other one. “I have a friend that knows all about birds. She'll be able to tell me what kind of bird this is and then you will have no excuse to keep putting off meeting your bride to be.”

 

Miriam was relieved to be in a dry diaper and to not have been caught with her wings in full view of the boy playing his guitar. She had to admit to herself that he was cute and it even though it would make her father mad, she might have to try to see if she could find him. She brought herself back to reality as her shirt flexed a little as she thought of the boy.

 

She carefully relaxed her wings and tucked them back down tightly again before finally leaving the restroom. She turned the corner and ran face first into Kazuo as he came out of the old auditorium in a bit of a hurry. He hit the ground as he bounced off her and stared at her a second before getting up off the floor and apologizing to a rapidly blushing Miriam.

 

Miriam reached down and helped him up off the floor and watched as he smiled at her apologized again and then left. “Damn, he's cute!” “He indeed is.” Miriam jumped at the voice beside her. Amy laughed as she had caught Miriam by surprise. “I saw you two run into each other you lucky bum. I'd love to take him for a test ride if you get my meaning.” “Amy! When did you get back in the country?”

 

“About three days ago. So, you going to take drama this year?” “I'm taking it but only to get the easy credits. I don't plan on trying out for any of the plays. I'll help with behind the scenes stuff but prefer to stay out of the spotlight. Being a star in a play would piss off my father so much. He hates the fact that I got on the honor roll last year with straight A's in every class.”

 

Amy looked at me in surprise. “What is his problem? Why does he hate that so much?” “He wants me to keep a low profile and not draw attention to myself in any way, shape, or form. I swear, I think he still believes in the old feudal Japan ways. He has me so mad right now that I can't wait to get to college next year just to get the hell away from him.”

 

“Is he still pissed about your health issue?” Miriam laughed a moment. “Bad choice of words, but yeah, he hates them big time no matter what I choose to use for the problem. Now here is something to really blow your mind. He wants me to get married! He has some crazy idea that I'm going to agree to an arranged marriage to someone I don't know and have never even seen! I told him it was not going to happen. He's pissed.”

 

Amy and and I talked for almost another hour as she told me all about her summer in Europe and laughed about everything that she did to get a cute boyfriend while overseas. I finally had to get back home before my father got mad at me. With my flute tucked away in my backpack and my harp in it's case hanging by it's carrying strap from my shoulder I turned to leave.

 

It is a good thing my reflexes are high or there would have been another collision and this time with the music teacher. Like me, she is an avian just a lot older is all. I have heard a few rumors that she is almost 500 years old but I think those rumors are just people letting their imaginations get the best of them.

 

She is a very nice lady and has a gift of finding the best talent in a person somehow. While a part of me wants to take a music course, my father forbids it as he is worried it will attract undue attention to me and thus somehow allow someone to find out I'm an avian. I do not pretend to understand how his drunken mind works.

 

As it is she spotted the harp case immediately and stopped me. “Do you play or is it just being returned to a friend?” “I am not very good ma'am and only play a little bit for the fun of it.” “I see. Can I hear you play please? I love the sound of a harp and so few play them anymore.” “I have to get home ma'am or my father will be upset at me for being late.” “Unfortunate. Perhaps I will see you in one of the music classes then?” “No ma'am. I am not allowed to take music classes. My father does not wish me to take them as he views them as a waste of time better spent learning other things.”

 

“I see. Perhaps sometime you will let me hear you play. Be careful outside, the wind is shifting heavily around 500 feet with a storm coming in from the west. It smooths out at around 2000 feet though. You should also not keep your wings hidden so much. They get cramped without enough exercise.”

 

She walked off after that and left me standing speechless for a few moments before my common sense told me to get moving before my bus passed by the stop and forced me to walk home. Stepping outside of the main doors was a sight that stopped me again. There was the boy that had been playing guitar earlier that I had run into. He was talking with a girl that was very attractive compared to me so it was my guess she was his girlfriend.

 

A part of me wanted to get between the two of them and tell her to get her hands off of him, but that was not something that was within my rights to do, unfortunately. He was so damned cute though but my father would half kill him if we tried to date so it was with great self control and frustration that I tore my gaze away from him and walked past the two of them quietly without saying a word.

 

Kazuo looked up as the girl passed him by quietly. She was gorgeous and there was something familiar about her but he could not put his finger on it. He watched her with barely contained lust as she walked by him quietly with her gaze downcast and a sad look on her lovely face. It took his sister shaking him by the shoulder to rouse him out of his stare.

 

Kiara chuckled as she got his attention. “You've got it bad brother. Should I go get her for you and tell her you want her?” Kazuo looked at Miriam a moment longer then spoke up. “No. Best not to push my luck any further no matter how tempting it is. This damned arranged marriage thing is stupid and I sure as Hell hope they come to their senses soon. I'm not interested in meeting and marrying a girl I don't even know.”

 

“I know, you have a hell of a crush on some girl with huge wings that you have only seen twice now. Maybe the one that you just about drooled on the sidewalk looking at is the one and is hiding her wings. Shall I go ask her for you?” “Kiara, you are hopeless you know that? I saw you drooling over her just as badly. Maybe you just need to finally tell mom and dad the truth and come out to them.” “I think they suspect already.

 

Looks like she got away. Too bad. She was cute. Let's go home and maybe you can get dad to tell you more about your bride to be.” “Don't remind me. I'd rather find someone special that I care about and not marry someone I've never met before. Let's go home now before you try to hook me up with some other girl I'm not interested in.”

 

Miriam stopped at the bus stop and waited then cursed as the bus passed by without stopping. Miriam looked up at the sky and had a hard time resisting the urge to go flying. Sighing and forcing my gaze back down to the ground I began my walk back to the house where once more father would fuss at me for being late. He would not believe me that the bus had not stopped for me again and would accuse me of having sex with another boy or perhaps a teacher. I hate my life at times.

 

It took me almost an hour to walk home since the buses were not stopping again with the damned union threatening to strike for some reason. My hand hesitated at the doorknob for a moment and my gaze was on the sky again for a few seconds before it was time to go inside once more to a place that was becoming a place of personal pain more than a home.

 

My father scowled at me before finally speaking to me for the first time in several days. You are late. Get changed and come back down here. We have an appointment with a doctor to make sure you are not pregnant.” It took a lot of effort to not blow up on my father as he stood there with a drink in his hand saying this to me.

 

“I am not pregnant father. I have not even kissed a boy yet let alone had sex with one. The doctor will confirm this for you.” With that said I went to my room to change into more comfortable clothes. My father did not like my special shirts made for people like me so that the wings would not be cramped. Once I had changed my clothes it occurred to me that mother was not home.

 

Since I was not eager to go to the appointment right away I looked in my parents room for signs of where my mother might have gone but father had cleaned it up. There was no trace at all of my mother. All pictures of her had been removed from sight and even her clothes were gone. This did not set well with me. What did father do to her? Where was she at?

 

I walked downstairs slowly while wondering where my mother had gone. Father was waiting for me when I got there. “We are running late so get in the car so we can go.” “Where is mother? What did you do to her?” “Get in the car. We will not discuss her, ever. She is no longer here and that is all you need to know.”

 

We drove in silence for some time before finally pulling in to a same day surgery clinic. My suspicions climbed to the forefront as we walked in to meet with the doctor. My father filled out paperwork for almost 20 minutes before handing it back in. While he filled out paperwork I went to the restroom and changed my diaper before it leaked. Once the paperwork was turned in my mind kept going back to the disappearance of mom.

 

Something was up with her sudden disappearance and it bothered me that I had no idea where she had vanished to. It was not like her to just up and vanish without a trace. A nurse called my name and we were shown into a small exam room. It made me nervous to be here without knowing why. Something was up, but what? It made no sense that she would just up and leave without saying a word to me or anyone.

 

All too soon we were called into the back room. It was a normal examination room as far as I could tell but why we were here bothered me as my father had told me nothing. A few minutes later the doctor walked into the room. “I'm Doctor Shannon Harmon. Your father tells me you wanted to have some work done.” My father cut me off before anything could be said by me. “Yes. I want to remove those horrible abominations on her back so that they will no longer mar her beauty.”

 

My head whipped around to look in shock at him as it hit me with the force of a bat to the head what he meant. “NO! You can't! I wont let you! You touch me and I'll hurt you!” He reached for me and without thinking about it I reacted violently for the first time in my life towards the man that had raised me. A quick shove sent him into the wall hard enough to knock the wind out of him while the doctor moved to restrain me.

 

The doctor hit the floor in pain as I grabbed and squeezed her hand hard enough to make it hurt badly and almost break bones in it. “You try to mutilate me and you dare call yourself a doctor? What kind of a sick bitch are you? Why would you do this to me?” “Please..Your hurting me.” “Good!” You are not taking my wings from me! Try to cut them off and you will be needing a doctor to put you back together again by the time I am done.”

 

I let go of her hand and she fell to the floor massaging it to ease the pain in it. She looked at me in confusion before speaking. “Mutilate you? I would never intentionally mutilate anyone. I'm a doctor not a sadistic monster. What did he want removed?” My father was still having trouble breathing and it was possible I might have hurt him seriously when he hit the wall.

 

“He wants these removed.” My hands trembled as they lifted my shirt to reveal my wings to her. She stared at the wings for a minute before finally speaking again. “They are lovely! Why would anyone want to have them cut off?” She gave my father a dirty look “If you cut them off she will die! Avians can not live without their wings! No one knows why, but it is the truth and I personally would never cut them off.”

 

she helped my father off of the floor and made him sit while she examined him. Aside from two very broken rings there is nothing else wrong with you physically. You possibly bruised your right lung a bit and it is making breathing tough but not impossible. I'll write down a website for you to look at for the truth since I somehow doubt you will believe me. What I have just told you is on that site along with a lot of other information on avians as well.

 

If there is a legitimate medical issue you want looked into then feel free to let me know. “I'm incontinent. Is there something that can be safely done to fix that problem?” “I don't know. In all honesty I doubt it. Most avians are incontinent. Something about how the nerves going to the muscles controlling those functions does not develop correctly. There has been some research into it and it is posted on the website.”

 

The doctor gave me a full checkup and even had me fan my wings out fully so she could measure their length. She had my father escorted out to the X-ray department for some pictures of his ribs she was certain were busted. She wrote down the website address and handed it to me. “I'm sorry about hurting your hand. I was frightened you were going to cut off my wings.” She hugged me. “I understand your fear fully.”

 

I had been noticing something odd about her since the exam began but it took a while to notice it. She had webbed hands! She let go of me and laughed about me staring at her hands. “I also have gills an can breathe just as easily in water as on land. My feet are a bit longer than normal and I have webbing between the toes too. My adoptive parents were very supportive of me and it helped me adjust to being different. Give your father some time and he'll come around I think.”

 

A nurse knocked on the door and brought in some pictures of my father's ribs. The doctor looked at them and smiled at me as my father came in holding his right side in obvious pain. “Congratulations sir. You have three broken ribs from hitting the wall so hard. You are lucky that is all you have. Avians have strength that is far greater than a normal human. Their reflexes and eyesight put a human to shame.

 

Incontinence is very common amongst avians and a good 80% of them suffer from incontinence ranging from light to complete. I would suggest that you use a high absorbency incontinence brief to manage that issue. The only other thing to test for would be the legacy gene, but right now I would not worry terribly much about it.” My father was not happy with the news so far so it fell upon me to ask the obvious question.

 

“What is the legacy gene?” “A few avians have it and we don't really understand it fully. It identifies avians who for some reason stop aging shortly after reaching full adulthood. The oldest one of them is a doctor named Marius. He is over 2000 years old. He was born In ancient Rome when Julius Caesar was emperor. He is the first recorded avian in history and he has the legacy gene as do a few others.”

 

“We do not need to test for such a thing. We will be going now and you should pray we never meet again!” “Sir, are you threatening me?” “Perhaps they will find you sleeping with the fish for this.” she laughed and held up her hand and showed him the webbing. “I have slept in the ocean before and plan to visit my extended family in about a week. They are newcomers and love it when I visit them for two weeks each year. I'll send you a bill for my services sir.”

 

My father gave her a dirty look then grabbed my arm and tried to pull me along with him. It didn't work as I refused to go with him until he apologized to her. “When you apologize to her then we can leave here.” He finally apologized insincerely to her and we left the office with him extremely mad at me. “This is not over! You will learn your place and to do what you are told!” He smacked me in the back of the head and it pissed me off.

 

It was tempting to teach him a lesson but it would do more harm than good so I let it go with just a dirty look at him. “I'm flying home father. The air around you is making me ill with your dishonorable behavior. Perhaps when you arrive home you will tell me what you did to mother or I will go to the police.” Without waiting to hear what he had to say to me I pulled the strings on my shirt and allowed my wings to be free.

 

He was enraged as my wings carried me into the sky where he could not hope to touch me. Once his anger wore off he would hurt. Broken ribs are tough to deal with when you are not taking pain medicine for them. It was less than he deserved for trying to mutilate me and kill me. He did something to mom but refused to say anything as if he was afraid.

 

It was a gorgeous day out still and so my time in the air was as close to heaven as a person could come while still alive. The only thing that finally forced me back down around sunset was a very wet diaper in dire need of being changed. It was almost dark out when my house came into view finally. No one was outside so it was safe for me to land without worrying about me being seen.

 

My father was waiting for me when my feet touched the ground again. He reached out and grabbed me by my hair and pulled hard. “You behaved very poorly today child and you will be punished for your dishonorable behavior this afternoon! It is time you learned your place and learned to behave!” The belt swung through the air as he held me by my hair so that it would be difficult to escape.

 

Smack! The belt hit me in the face hard and left me dazed as he swung it at me again and hit me across the forehead this time and it drew blood where it hit me. I screamed but it did nothing to him and he swung at me again as I struggled to make him let go of my hair. Smack! The belt came down hard across my left wing. I screamed in pain as he smiled and swung at my wings again.

 

The belt missed this time because out of desperation I slapped him hard with my right wing and threw his aim off. My hand grabbed his hand holding my hair and once again the belt hit me as he pulled on my hair to keep me bent over so he could hit me easier. Smack! He hit in the side of the face again and this time he laughed about it.

 

“No full moon to save you now! You will obey me and you will not change ever again! Those horrible abominable things will come off if I have to rip them off myself! Smack! Another hit and more blood flowed from my forehead as he hit my face again. He dropped the belt and reached for my left wing that still stung from the belt.

 

Panic hit me harder than ever before. He was going to tear my wings off of me! I screamed and lashed out at him as hard as I could. My fist connected and he let out a whoosh as the air was punched out of his lungs for a moment. I almost fell on top of him and he yanked out a handful of my hair as he fell on the floor.

 

My right foot lashed out at him as he tried to get up off the floor. He went back down but not very hard. I could not see out of one eye thanks to the blood and he took advantage of that. He roared in anger and reached for something nearby. I heard a whoosh as I tried to get my wits about me. The table leg hit me in the right side and broke at least one rib.

 

“Fucking insolent bitch! You will learn your place just as your mother did! He punched me in the face with the table leg packing his fist. The punch knocked me back and left me dazed as he grabbed me again. “You are nothing but a whore! It is time you learned a lesson that whores learn” He pulled my jeans and diaper off then started to unbuckle his own pants when my senses returned.

 

In a heartbeat I panicked and hit him as hard as I could. He went flying back into the table but got back up as I tried to pull my jeans back up. His punch caught me in the ribs and more ribs broke as I screamed in pain. He grabbed my hair again and slammed my head down hard into his knee to daze me. His breath stank of whiskey as he beat on me for several more minutes until I could barely stand and he was breathing hard.

 

I hurt everywhere and he only laughed about it. He pulled my jeans down again and then threw me down on the floor. “You will service me since the cat bitch left.” He got on me as I tried to catch my breath. He was about to enter me when I threw him off of me. He did not get back up this time. I do not know how hard he hit the far wall and I did not care. The drunken slob had just tried to rape me!

 

I staggered to my room, crying. I put on a clean diaper and without thinking straight I grabbed my travel bag with my flute, wipes and two spare diapers in it then as an afterthought grabbed my harp before staggering down the stairs. Blood continued to drip down my into my face and make it hard to see where anything was. I wiped my arm over my face to try to clear the mess up a bit and it marginally helped.

 

Father was still out cold on the floor where he had landed so he was not a threat for a few minutes at least. When he woke up he would not find me ready and waiting for him to rape and use as his personal sex toy. There was no coherent thought in my head as the house was left behind by me. Two steps out the door and the birds in the sky were joined by me in a desperate flight to freedom.

 

The only thing I could do was fly short distances since my wing hurt and it was hard to breathe. How long it took me to get to my best and only friend's house to say goodbye I do not know. I only wanted to tell her goodbye and explain that I was leaving. I was obviously not thinking straight and my head was pounding when I landed at her doorstep.

 

Landing is perhaps a bad choice to describe it. I hit her front door hard enough to hurt and could barely get back up again. Amy opened the door to see who had almost knocked it off the hinges. I collapsed into her arms in a bloody, limp mess. I looked up to see the look of horror and shock on her face. “Help.”

 

“OH MY GOD! MIRIAM! DAD, HELP! Miriam drug my out cold body into the house as her father came to see what the yelling was about. He never curses but Miriam heard him curse that night. “OH shit! Get her to the couch then call 911! Miriam and her father drug me to the couch carefully. “Get those fake wings off of her while I call 911!”

 

He picked up the phone as Amy carefully examined the wings and found a secret I had hidden from her. “Dad! The wings are real! She's an avian!” It took the ambulance and police almost ten agonizingly long minutes to reach the house. The paramedics bandaged my face as they readied me for transport to the hospital. They took extreme care of the wings as they put me on a gurney and secured me down for the trip to the hospital.

 

They were not overly surprised to find a wet diaper on me as it is common knowledge that a lot of us are incontinent. Amy explained everything sher knew as they got me ready for transport. The police took pictures for evidence as Amy told them her story for the third time. “I didn't know she was an avian until she crashed on my front doorstep. She never told me.”

 

The police lady was nice about taking the report and believed every word she was told about me. It was only the beginning of a long and crazy time in my life that would open my eyes to a very unusual world that until tonight I thought held no more big surprises.

 

Thats it for this chapter.  Next chapter will reveal the penalty her father will face for his actions and how Miriam recovers while trying to find out about her mother as well as dealing with school.

 

End part 2

Okay folks, here is the next chapter of the story.  hope it surprises all of you a little bit when mom is revealed for what she is, and no she is not barney!  lol.

 

 

PART THREE

The light hurt my eyes at first and it felt like every part of my body hurt. It took me a few seconds to remember what had happened to me then after a few more seconds the pain in my back made me sit up slowly and take the weight off my wings. My side hurt even more and carefully moving my hand along my side revealed the presence of stitches covered by bandages. My head had a bandage over my left eye where they had obviously put in more stitches.

 

The clock on the wall said it was a little after 10:00 in the morning. Amy walked in slowly and quietly and smiled when she saw me awake. It was nice to see a friendly face and not have to worry about hiding my wings since she obviously knew now. “Good to see you awake. I like the wings by the way. Now I know why something about you always seemed to be a little off and missing.

 

So how come you never told me about your wings? They're lovely and I'm jealous now.” “My father hates them and tried to have them cut off.” “That's insane! They're lovely and complete you! Why would he do that?” “I don't know. He's crazy. He made mom so mad she left him without even saying goodbye to me. He tried to rape me and did this to me. He refused to tell me what he did to mother.”

 

“He made me mad so without thinking straight I left, but I'm back now honey.” My face lit upon seeing her. “MOM!” She hugged me then pushed the call button for the nurse. “They will want to ask you a bunch of questions then you will need to file a police report. This way we can maybe get your father into a treatment program and get him some help that is long overdue.”

 

The nurse came in as I was explaining things to my mother about what father had done. Her smile faded and her eyes almost seemed to change color for a moment. It was almost as if she was something else for a moment and it was a bit scary. The nurse asked me a lot of questions and did some hand and eye coordination tests as well.

 

The three of us talked for some time before the police arrived to take my statement. My mother refused to leave the room while I gave my statement but she did not coach me or prompt me to stop or continue as I told the police every detail of the attack on me by my father. After this my body started to ache a little more so they gave me a minor pain pill. I had eight stitches in me thanks to my father and had lost a third of my blood volume before they managed to stop the bleeding. Right before the pain medicine knocked me out the nurse changed my now soaked diaper.

 

When my consciousness finally returned it was dark outside but my mother was still right next to me in a chair sound asleep and looking exhausted. My diaper was soaked and in dire need of being changed. I flt around and found the call button. A nurse came in a few minutes later and quietly changed me into a dry diaper then helped me sit up for a few minutes so I could stretch out my wings.

 

“She is worried about you and has not slept in almost a week. Go back to sleep now and heal some more then the doctor can answer your questions when you wake up again.” I got a drink of water then allowed myself to go back sleep without any of my questions being answered. Looking back now it was a good thing. The truth would have terrified me and healing would have been a lot tougher on me.

 

The universe it seems has a perverse sense of humor. While asleep my dreams were haunted with visions of the boy I saw playing in the old auditorium. He was cute, but he had a girlfriend that was way better looking than me. I could hear his music and see him playing and looking at something in his guitar case. What was there about him that attracted me to him so much?

 

Soon after this I began to have strange dreams of tigers and weird half tiger half human people. Something about one of them seemed so familiar and at the same time strange and frightening as it looked at me. Something about it seemed familiar to me as if I should know the thing somehow. What held me the most were the eyes that looked at me and, it seemed, right through to my very soul.

 

My mother was holding me when I woke up breathing hard from the dream. It took her a few minutes to get me calmed down. Once she had me calmed down the smell hit me and it made me almost gag it was so horrible. “It's okay honey, just relax and let it go. It will fade in time.” She said something in a language I did not recognize and the horrifying final images of a tiger thing leaping at me began to fade.

 

The nurse went about the task of cleaning me up and getting me into a fresh diaper while mother wrinkled her nose. “Your going to be going home tomorrow and you don't have to hide those lovely wings anymore unless you wish to do so. Now then, before you start worrying, your father has been taken care of and is no longer a threat to you or anyone else.”

 

“What happened to him?” “We will discuss it and a great many things later after you have gotten out and gotten some time in the air with those wings of yours. You were in a coma for almost a week after the transfusion. I was a direct match for your blood type so we used enough of my blood to stabilize you and it had some minor side effects but I have been told that it will pass.”

 

We left the hospital the next day and it felt great to be outside where the wind called to me with a pull far stronger than ever before. Mother looked at me and smiled then spoke. “We are outside so get that butt of yours into the sky and stretch out those lovely wings of yours before you go crazy.” I needed no further prompting and was in the sky a few seconds later.

 

The sky felt like the call of a long lost lover as my wings carried me all over the town at varying altitudes. I did not care who saw me at the moment. I needed this so badly. Nothing beats the feeling of the wind in your face and the air flowing over and under your wings as you fly. Flying is the most wonderful thing on the world and the only thing that mars it is the thick diaper between my legs reminding me that there are prices to be paid for very gift.

 

After an hour of flying it was time to land and be with my mother once again. It was a nice surprise to see Amy standing and talking to my mother when I started to circle to reduce speed for my landing. Trying to land at almost 35 miles an hour would be disastrous and possibly even fatal. After three tight turns to reduce speed it was safe to come in for my landing. My hospital diaper crinkled loudly as my wings flared out all the way and flapped in a circular motion to dump the last of my speed.

 

Amy watched in wonder as my feet finally touched the ground again. She instantly hugged me when my wings folded along my back as they normally would. “That was amazing! I've never seen an avian before and seeing you flying like that was an amazing sight! How do I get a set of wings?” “Think you would need more than just the wings but it would be a good start.”

 

“You scared the hell out of us when you crashed on our doorstep. You were almost half dead when they finally got you to the hospital. Your mother was a direct match for your rare blood type and gave you a transfusion that saved you. Why did you hide your wings? They are the most lovely feature you have.” “In a word, Father. That man hated them. I sometimes wonder if he liked anything, well, besides himself that is.”

 

“Wait till we get back to school! They are going to be shocked when they see your wings! It is going to be a hell of a shock to them!” “I don't think so Amy. I want to get my school work caught up and if they know about my wings it will be more difficult to do that. They will pester me with questions and make it impossible to study. I'll keep them a secret at school for now.

 

I also have to figure out what to do about someone I keep seeing in my dreams. I don't even know his name but I can't get him out of my head for some damned reason. He has a girlfriend already so it is not like I can just go grab him and kiss him then fuck his brains out as tempting as it is. My mother laughed about that one. “Why not? If you greet him that way it would definitely make him forget his girlfriend real fast.”

 

“MOTHER!” Everyone laughed and it made me realize that they had just suckered me. When mother finally called a cab for us I had agreed to talk to Amy more in a few days once everything was sorted out and things returned to some semblance of normal. While flying in the sky it had allowed my mind to relax and sort through all the information haunting my dreams. Things had clicked into place as it were.

 

We finally arrived a t a new house on the East side of town that my mother had gotten for us. When we get inside we need to talk. I think I figured it out while flying and if I';m right then we definitely need to talk.” My mother smiled and led the way to the inside of the huge house. Once inside we sat down at a kitchen table to talk. This was not going to be easy and if wrong them it would make me sound like a lunatic.

 

“So why did you choose not to come out when the rest did mother?” “You were so young at the time and the world hated us all so much with their ages old superstitions and fear that your father and I agreed to just keep it a secret. Would it help you if you saw my other forms?” “I think I need to in order to prove to my self that I'm not insane.” She smiled at me then stood up and began changing shape.

 

Had I not been half prepared my diaper would have been filled with a mess from the sight. It was painful to an extent but once begun there was no turning back as she grew to almost seven feet tall. Her body became a strange cross between a tiger and a human. She stood there catching her breath a moment as I looked at her.

 

She was huge! Her body was very powerfully built and it was plain to my sight that with one hit she could take me out easily. “It has been too long since I last changed. Normally it does not take me this long to change or hurt this much. You ready to see more or do you need some time?” “I think you had better before I chicken out.” “I know this is a lot to take in and I'm sorry.” She stripped then her form began to shift and waver as her body changed once more.

 

After what seemed an eternity she was on all fours in front of me but no longer looked even remotely human. She looked like a very large Bengal tiger. She was easily twice the size of any tiger ever seen in zoos or in the wild and without a doubt, a lot more lethal if she chose or needed to be. She walked around me a few times and sniffed at me then then sat down in front of me as I looked her over.

 

After a few more minutes she began to breathe hard as she transformed back to human. My diaper was hanging heavy between my legs by the time she finally finished changing again. She laid on the floor a few minutes catching her breath and regaining her strength before finally getting dressed again. “The change is painful when it is not answered in a long time”

 

We talked for the next two hours as she ate ravenously and answered questions for me. “The change leaves me hungry each time. Changing two times after so long is not easy. Now do me a favor and go change yourself before you leak or would you rather have me change you for a change?” I hugged her before speaking. “Thank you mother.” I then ran to the bathroom to change.

 

Three days later the doctor cleared me to return to school. I was almost three weeks behind in my studies thanks to my drunken father. Mother refused to tell me what happened to father except to say that he would not bother anyone ever again. Mother let me make my own choice as to whether to reveal my wings or keep them hidden.

 

While it would be simpler in the long run to reveal them it would make catching up on my schoolwork more difficult with everyone either swamping me with questions or tormenting me for being different. For now it was safer to blend in and come out as an avian at a later point in the year. My mother was very understanding and offered to give me a ride to school on her back so that no one would stare at my wings.

 

It took me a moment to realize she was joking. Her face cracked a smile then she started laughing at me a little for having believed her for a moment. She drove me to school with all the paperwork needed to prove that I was cleared to return to school by the doctors. It was still a bit of a nervous time as a part of me kept looking for the boy that had haunted my dreams. He had a lovely girlfriend but it was not something that could be helped by me.

 

When we passed by him and the girl in the hall it took a great deal of self control to not stare at him as we passed by him. The pull was very strong and hard to resist. It made me want to slug a wall in frustration bu that would not help me. Sometimes it seems that life loves to torture me. My diaper was barely wet but it seemed to feel like it weighed a thousand pounds and crinkled loud enough for everyone in school to hear.

 

We finally reached the office with almost 15 minutes to spare before my first class. After talking with the the principal and explaining the paperwork to her she smiled at me and welcomed me back. “I'm glad you recovered so well and could make it back. If you need anything let someone know and we will go from there.” My mother thanked her and left as the bell rang for the first class of the day.

 

Kazuo watched as Miriam walked out of the office. She was drop dead gorgeous but looked sad for some reason. Kiara saw him watching and almost drooling again so this time she gave him a hard push that sent him flying straight into her. At the last instant she spun out of the way as Kazuo barely avoided hitting a wall. She smiled a little at him and then continued on her way.

 

Kiara walked over to him and laughed. “You missed a perfect chance. At least she smiled at you a little before walking off. Wonder if maybe she likes girls better? I might just have to find out and let you know.” “I can't. That damned arranged marriage thing, remember? Father has not been able to get in touch with them just yet so I don't know how he plans to get me out of it.

 

Besides, I'm looking for someone special and it's not her. Still, she is very pretty and would not be interested in me. Girls that look like that can have anyone they want. If you want her then go for it but don't tell me anything about her body if you get her. It would make it even tougher on me to be a gentleman about it.”

 

Kiara kissed me on the cheek then was off down the hall on her way to her first class as I stopped by my locker to get my guitar and then it was on to my music class. I was almost to my locker when I spotted it on the floor just halfway down the row my own locker was in. Another of the huge feathers that mom had confirmed came from avians and not a huge bird.

 

Avians had been given a very bad reputation by some of the hate groups after one of them killed three men that were trying to beat her to death. That was just about three years ago and since then even more avians had come out but most of them stayed hidden thanks to the hate groups and extremists in various churches going out of their way to hunt them down and kill them.

 

Mrs' Benson is the music teacher and also an avian. She wont tell me or anyone else if there are other avians in the school as she says that if there are that they have reasons for staying quiet and they have their right to privacy. I know that a number of them suffer from incontinence like me but besides my own family no here knows besides the school nurse.

 

I wear fairly thick diapers to avoid having to change often so with a bit of careful planning I can make it through the day before having to change. My dad has been trying to find out the arranged marriage that some of my cousins and my aunt managed to set up a number of years ago to help the family in some way. I have not met the girl yet but I have a plan to get out of the marriage. This will be one time that me being in diapers will be an advantage. She will find out and immediately refuse to be with me which will leave me free to pursue my angel and find her.

 

Miriam sighed as she walked into her first hour math class with Mrs. Harton. The lady was old and rude to everyone but she was the only one teaching advanced geometry and trigonometry this year so I had to put up with her if I wanted to get a good grade and get into a good college studying mechanical engineering.

 

Mrs Hrton was affectionately called Mrs. Hardon by a number of students because of her attitude towards everyone. I had her last year for calculus and barely managed to avoid angering her by staying silent. This year It was my hope to do the same thing and get the good grade I wanted. She took roll then immediately got on with being rude to everyone. It was not easy to remain silent and focus on my work with her finding any excuse she could to single any of us out and make it her personal goal to drive us from the class for the year. Last year she forced two girls to quit when she found out they were lesbians and in love with each other.

 

By the end of the class she had not found anyone to single out for her favorite game and that caused me to worry as I did not want it to be me she singled out. At the halfway point in the class I had finished the assignment and was busy working on the questions for the next chapter in the book when she decided to single me out.

 

“Miriam, why were you not in class last week?” “I had a medical issue to take care of ma'am and that required me to stay in the hospital while I recovered ma'am.” “I thought abortions sent you home the next day.” “I was not having an abortion ma'am. I was assaulted severely and beaten almost to death so that forced me to spend a number of weeks in the hospital ma'am.” A slap across my face stunned me. “I don't want to hear excuses from a cheap Asian slut! Your kind should have been rounded up like the Jews were.”

 

It took a great deal of self control to stay calm and not hit her immediately. Ma'am, I would like to be excused from class please.” “Shut up you filthy gutter slut! Too bad it was the Jews Hitler went after and not you Asian sluts. You are almost as bad as that stupid avian slut teaching music. Both of your kind should be wiped from the planet.”

 

At this point It was tempting to hit her but instead my patience held as I replied back to her politely. “I am sorry you feel that way ma'am. If you would allow it ma'am then I will leave and drop this class for an other class so you do not have to be offended by my presence ma'am.” She slapped me again and this time instead of taking it I grabbed her wrist and broke it before leaving class.

 

Once outside the class my course was straight to the cafeteria to call my mother to excuse me for the rest of the day before Mrs Harton ended up dead from a very sudden stop after a very long fall. As I started dialing the phone Mrs Benson saw me standing in the cafeteria about ready to explode violently. “Hello Miriam. Care to get some air time with me for a while? I hear it is lovely flying weather and I have the next two hours as free time. I could certainly use the company. Besides, Mrs Hardon is not worth hitting. Even though it is tempting sometimes.”

 

We walked out after she allowed me to drop off my books at the locker and change into a fresh diaper. The air was warm and the sky was clear. Perfect weather for flying. I pulled the concealed openings open and let my wings out. A moment later the two of us were in the air. It felt good to have someone to fly with and talk to.

 

She listened as everything was revealed to her about the attack by my father, the beatings, the attempted rape, the insults, the arranged marriage and then even about my mother revealing herself as a were tiger to me. The stress had been getting to me and talking to someone about it felt good. By the time we returned to the school it was almost time for her to return to her classes. She helped me get my wings concealed again before we walked back into the building and into the office.

 

We talked with the principal and then for me to return to my classes. Mrs Manstead was nice about the entire incident and merely asked me to stop by after my last class. “I think that we are going to need a new advanced math teacher after today. I have an idea that might work for you so see me after your last class.”

 

My next class was drama class. We discussed the various plays we would be working on for the year and usual my teacher and Amy both tried to talk me into taking a part in one of the plays. I politely declined but volunteered to help with the behind the scenes work as usual. We had two plays to prepare for this year for the school. The first was a Halloween play that was a parody version of Frankenstein and the second one was an original play about a young Japanese shrine maiden gifted with wings by the spirits.

 

The play was going to be performed shortly after everyone came back from Christmas vacation. It was a long play and very complicated. The girl in the lead role had to play a harp and a flute. For this they would use a recording. For the wings they would use fake wings and a harness so she could fly. It would be a nice play and I would be doing a lot of the backstage work with setting the props in place.

 

At the end of the day I went to the principals office and politely knocked on her door. She looked up from her paperwork and motioned for me to come in. “Have a seat. Mrs. Harton has been fired and is facing possible criminal charges if your mother decides to press charges against her. You did a real number on her wrist. It is a mess and they doubt she will be able to ever use it fully again after you crushed it to a pulp.”

 

“My apologies ma'am. My actions were uncalled for and I will submit to any punishment you think is appropriate.” “You are certainly polite for someone so young. You are not in trouble for your actions Miriam. Between the two of us she had it coming a long time ago. If you want out of that class I can certainly arrange it but I'd like to see how well you do on a test first. It covers math and will tell me what your weak points in it are.”

 

She handed me the test and let me go to the private meeting room to work on the test. It was an easy test covering everything from basic math to spatial and fractal geometry. The quantum mechanics section slowed me down a little but that was to be expected as my class last year had only brushed up on it a little bit and so they forced me to study it more to make sure I understood the subject.

 

The test took two hours normally but I was finished with it in just about 90 minutes. I turned it in and she let me go change my soaked diaper before it leaked. Coming out of the restroom and me thinking on the test and not looking where I was going once again. Twice in the same week the same good looking boy that was driving me crazy was run into by me not looking where I had been going.

 

When he looked up it was all I could do to not grab him and kiss him right there. I helped him off the floor silently and tried hard not to stare at him as he blushed. He was still damned cute. Too bad he had such a hot girlfriend. Once he was up it was time for me to get going before my resolve to be polite broke and I took him right then and there,

 

Taking a deep breath to calm myself down I entered the office and then stopped at the principals office once again. She was just opening the door when I almost knocked on it. “Just in time. I just finished looking over this test. How well do you think you did on it?” “Not very well. My advanced math is rusty and so it is most likely not a very good score.”

 

“You aced it. You got every single question right on the test. I think we can safely say that you do not need that class and could almost teach it. Mrs Benson tells me you play the harp and the flute. Would you be interested in perhaps taking a music class instead? I can give you full credit for the math class and thus free you up for another class in that time slot if you like.”

 

“I am tempted ma'am but it would be best if I stuck to the courses that will help me get into a good college. I plan to work in the aerospace industry so I need all the advanced courses that I can get into. I already have all three years of drafting finished and this school does not offer mechanical engineering courses. Honey, there are no more advanced course for you to take. You have taken all of them already and gotten straight A's in each one so far.”

 

“What about the advanced chemistry course?” “You already took it in your freshman year and aced it. You are avoiding the music class. Why?” “It is personal ma'am. Perhaps since the advanced courses are finished it would be possible for me to use the time for study or perhaps to take an advanced pre college course in my desired field if possible.”

 

She thought for a moment then looked at the schedules for the advanced courses that were desired by me. “No luck there. They are not offering them this year due to budget cutbacks.” She showed me the information to prove she was not lying to me. “Very well, music will have to do for now.” “Wonderful. I'll let Mrs Benson know to expect you tomorrow. She desperately wants to hear you play.”

 

The music class was fun and relaxing for me so perhaps it was just what was needed to ease my stress and forget about the upcoming arranged marriage. Mother had told me that the first meeting was set for near the end of the school year. As for father, he was not dead. He was in prison for the next 15 years and had been told that I was under the protection of my mother's clan.

 

Halloween came with me doing a lot better in school thanks to the music class allowing me to relax and play in the middle of the day after a quick stop off to change my diaper. Only once so far had it been a loaded diaper requiring a bit longer to clean up from so that was good for me. The only thing that sucked about the music class was not being able to play the way I liked. We had to play the scores set before us.

 

During the Halloween play I got to see Kazuo again and all but drooled when I saw him in the audience laughing at the funny play. When the good doctor called out, “It's alive! It's alive!” The guy playing the monster replied, “Yeah and it's trying to sleep so shut the hell up!” Everyone laughed about that. The play went off without a hitch aside from Amy falling and breaking her ankle over a board someone had left laying in the wrong place.

 

She still wanted the lead role in the next play but with a broken ankle she had no chance of doing it. Elizabeth Jordan got the part and I worked my best backstage magic to get the new harness and fake wings ready for her. At one week to opening day the recording got messed up and someone broke the fake wings. This play was suffering some major bad luck it seems. While the others worked on the fake wings and jammed harness release I worked on teaching Elizabeth how to play a harp and a flute.

 

She was horrible at music and admitted it. Amy and I both laughed about it. Three days before show time and Elizabeth got hit by a car. The driver had run a stop sign and hit her hard enough to send her over the hood before she hit the pavement head first. I went to the hospital and anxiously waited with her parents for word on her condition.

 

She would make it but was going to spend the next six months recovering. Doing the play was impossible for her now. When I went to see her she had a gorgeous blond girl in the room kissing her. This shocked me enough to make me flood my diaper in response. I recognized this girl instantly. She smiled when she finally saw me. “I'm Kiara. Elizabeth is my girlfriend.” “I thought you were Kazuo's girlfriend.” She laughed as did Elizabeth. “Kazuo is my brother. I'm adopted. Since you are here though I am going to break a promise to him. He has a huge crush on you.”

 

both of them laughed about the look of surprise on my face. “Now if you had huge wings he'd be in heaven so to speak. He's obsessed with some girl he has never met that has wings and can fly, but I only know of one avian in the area and she teaches music.” “An avian? What color are the wings?” “Light green with red tips he said.” I was speechless for a moment then decided it was time to take a chance.

 

“My father is in prison for his crimes so it is time to stop hiding I think. He's looking for me.” I pulled the concealed openings wide open with the strings and pushed my wings out through the openings so they could be seen. Both girls had their mouths open in shock. “I may have to try to figure out how to talk to him. I think I know the perfect time to do it too. There is a play coming up in a few days and I'm going to take the lead in it since no one else can.

 

We broke the fake wings and the harness in accidents. Amy has a broken ankle, you're stuck in here making out with Kiara and the audio recordings are garbled badly, so I'm the logical candidate. Just don't tell him about me. Get him to the play and I will officially come out then as an avian.” We all three of us talked for another hour before it was time to go home. Kiara was grabbed by Elizabeth and pulled into another long and passionate kiss before she was allowed to finally leave.

 

“So, when are you two getting married?” I was only joking but Kiara was not. “Right after school is out for the year. The tenth of June. We are going to college together. I asked and she said yes.” I congratulated her and stopped in the restroom to change myself real fast before my diaper leaked. She was surprised to know I wore diapers.

 

“Wow, I never knew you had to wear them as well. Now Kazuo has one less thing to worry about. He is afraid to talk to you as well because of his own issues with having to wear diapers. He has been in them since birth thanks to a birth defect. Now he has nothing to fear on that fron if he goes out with you.” I laughed with relief. “Tell him to bring some spares the night of the play and don't wait up for him. Now that I know he is single I'm going to take and seduce him.”

 

she smiled when I told her the full story about the dreams and how he haunted them so much it was all I could do to not seduce him instantly. “Go for it! He needs to get laid and so do you!” We laughed all the way to the bus stop where I left her. The next day at school was going to be interesting and tricky.

 

When it came time for the drama class we were about to cancel the play until I showed up two minutes late with my harp and my flute. Everyone stared as I had changed shirts and left my wings in full view of everyone. “Guys, I think I know how to salvage the play if you will help me a bit with something.” Everyone heard my idea and loved it. I proved that the harp tune was easy for me to play and so was the flute solo. The formal kimono was a bit too tight so I called my mother and asked for the one in my closet that fit me with my wings.

 

After rehearsing for a few more days it was show time. In my pack backstage were condoms, wipes, and spare diapers. Outside the drama class my wings were hidden and they all kept it a secret. Kazuo was given a front row center stage ticket to insure he showed up. My mother approved of the entire thing after hearing the truth about the dreams of him. She hugged me and smiled. “He is your soul mate. This only happens with avians and the bond is always true.”

 

I proved to her that I had condoms and spare diapers in my bag as well as a change of clothes and my debit card. This was shaping up to be a play he would never forget. By the time the curtain rose for the beginning of the play my diaper was wet in more ways than just one. Kazuo was right where I wanted him and was flanked by his sister and Amy so he we could not back out of the set up we had all planned. As the curtain rose he saw me for the first time with my wings in full view and his mouth fell open. “Perfect!” I thought to myself.

 

END PART THREE

PART FOUR

At the end of the play the shrine maiden is supposed to fly over the audience and vanish into the darkness and thus end the play. A number of people had seen us working on the harness system and were expecting me to be carried over them and then hoisted up into the area above the lights. This time though the play would end differently with the shrine maiden grabbing her lover and vanishing with him.

 

I double checked with everyone and even changed my diaper during the 10 minutes break to make sure that there were no complications in my plan to grab Kazuo and fly off with him in my arms. It was time to let them know about me and if they did not like it then too bad. The play was a success and everyone was watching and listening closely.

 

At the end of the play I stood up once again and this time stretched my wings out all the way so that everyone could see them. They were a lot bigger than the fake wings we had accidentally broken. “I see my love awaits.” Without waiting I walked over to Kazuo grabbed him and then leaped into the air carefully and flew up with Kazuo staring in surprise at me as I kissed him and then landed at the top of the auditorium.

 

We walked out into the main hall with Kazuo still in shock as I held him next to me. From the auditorium we were receiving a standing applause. Kazuo stared at me and after a few seconds pulled me into him and was about to kiss me when someone grabbed him from behind and pulled him away from me. “Slut! You are mine!” I screamed as me father threw Kazuo over the railing from second floor to land unmoving on the floor below.

 

“Kazuo!” My father grabbed me from behind and pulled out a huge knife as he threw me against a wall. “Time to take care of those horrible abominable things for good!” He grabbed my right wing as I screamed. “NO!” The knife hit and my scream woke me up from the nightmare. My hearts were beating like jackhammers in my body. I was breathing hard and sweating in fear as my mother came running into my room.

 

She sniffed once and smiled softly at me. “It's okay, honey. It was just a bad dream. Let it go and allow yourself to calm down. It's okay. Shh, it's alright now. He can't hurt you again. He's taken care of.” After finally calming down the horrible smell hit my nose. “Mother got up off my bed and retrieved my diapering supplies from my top drawer and proceeded to clean me up and put me into a fresh diaper.

 

Within a few minutes sleep claimed me again as my mother silently left the room with my toxic mess of a diaper in hand. When my alarm clock woke me up at 6:00 am the dream from last night came back to me in pieces. It was enough to convince me to not reveal my wings until I was sure that it would not cause trouble. My morning routine began with the removal of my wet diaper and then a quick shower. My hand ran over the healing scar on my side for a second and it made me involuntarily shiver for a moment. My father had tried to rape me and then tried to kill me.

 

It took a bit of willpower to force the memories down and to replace them with visions of being with Kazuo. It was unfortunate that he had a girlfriend and one that was so damned good looking at that. I sighed and got out of the shower. After a few minutes of work my wings were dry along with the rest of my body.

 

I reached down and picked up my clean diaper off the floor where it had fallen. Mother had changed brands on me and these new ones were thicker, fit better, and held a lot more between changes. Once diapered and fully dressed it was time to go out and face the world. I had 15 minutes to get to the bus stop in time to catch the bus.

 

I tucked my wings and folded them around me as tightly as I could then ran for the bus with my book bag. Inside the zippered shut bag were my books and three spare diapers as well as a small package of wipes. I made it to the bus stop in time to catch the bus just in time. Amy laughed as I climbed on the bus for the ride to school.

 

“Cutting it a bit close aren't you?” “Bad night and I overslept. Nightmares about my father made it hard to sleep.” “That sucks big time. At least you made it here on time though. So, you going to try for a part in the Frankenstein play or are you going to just stick it out behind the scenes like always?” “I don't think it would work out if I tried out for a part for a couple of reasons you are well aware of.”

 

“Sorry, I forgot. So you going to the homecoming dance at least for a change?” I hung my head sighed for a second before replying. “No. My father has every boy at the school too afraid to ask me out. He half killed the last one that tried to even talk to me casually and then used favors to get out of criminal charges. He even had the poor boy thrown into jail for 90 days at the end of it all. So no, I'm not going to the prom.”

 

“That man is a sick bastard. Have you gotten out of the arranged marriage yet?” “No. It's still on for the end of the school year before I turn 18. My father wants that money in my trust fund and an arranged marriage before I am 18 is how he plans to get his greedy hands on it. As it is, I don't even get to meet the poor guy I'm supposed to marry until it a week before the ceremony and then according to some screwed up arrangement he will basically take my virginity in front of witnesses and then marry me a week later.

 

If it was up to me I'd leave here forever but that is not an option. So how about you? You find anyone yet?” I have my eye on one guy. He is hot and I'm going to meet him tonight to see how well he can perform if you get my meaning.” I laughed about it a moment. “Amy, one of these days you are goiing to end up in the middle of a gang bang if you are not more careful.”

 

“Already did that. That was a lot of fun and it is a good thing I'm on the pill.” I about had a heart attack and looked at her in surprise and shock. She started laughing and right then it was clear to me that she had just suckered me again. “I've never been in a gang bang, but it was so worth it to see the look on your face. That was priceless. The guy I want to take and fuck the brains out of is already claimed by someone else. He just doesn't know it yet is all.”

 

I laughed at that. I see a number of guys I bet you'd like to take and have fun with. I bet you want Adam form the football team.” “You mean tiny Tim? I can promise you that he lives up to that name. I was expecting a good pounding and instead he was very small and lasted all of about three minutes before it was over.” “That's fucking hilarious. I feel sorry for Veronica when she decides to try to get him into bed with her.”

 

We both laughed at that one. We talked the rest of the time as we rode to school together. “So why don't you just fly to school?” The question caught me off guard for a half a second but I recovered quickly. “My broom blew a bristle and has be sent in for repairs. Never buy a broom honest Al's used brooms.” She laughed as did a few others.

 

When we finally arrived at the school we had to go separate ways halfway down the hall to get to our lockers. “See you at lunch, Amy.” We parted and I was lost in thought until I saw Kazuo walking down the hallway with the blond goddess on his arm. I couldn't help but watch and almost drool as we passed in the hallway. With great restraint we passed and the blond goddess on his arm was left completely alone by me.

 

Kazuo and Kiara passed by Miriam in the hall and kept going towards their lockers. Kiara saw the Asian girl watching and all but drooling over her brother as they walked by her. From the way she clenched her harp case it was clear she wanted to say something to him but was forcing herself to leave him alone.

 

Hey Kazuo, don't know if you are aware, but that girl we just passed was all but drooling over you as we passed by her. Want me to go talk to her?” Kazuo shook his head. “I'd rather not commit suicide to get out of an arranged marriage. She is protected. The last boy who tried to talk to her almost died and ended up in jail on some sort of trumped up charges. Besides, she wouldn't want me if she knew about my problem.”

 

Kiara shook her head in sadness. “That's the one? She's cute! Surely you can at least say hello to her and not worry about getting hurt. It's obvious she wants you from the way she drools and almost drags her tongue on the floor when you pass by her.” “I want to find my angel and I wont be happy until I do. She is near and I can feel it. I see her in my dreams all the time and it is driving me crazy. At any rate, I have to use the restroom before class so I'll see you at lunch.”

 

Kazuo and Kiara parted as they had classes at opposite ends of the school all day except during lunch which was when Kiara tried to set him up with some cute girl or would ask him which girls he knew were lesbians and might be willing to go out with her. Kiara had come out to her brother a few years ago but it was still not generally known in the school that she was a lesbian.

 

Kazuo stopped in at the least used restroom and soon locked a stall door behind him. Once secured in and well hidden he proceeded to change out of a soaked diaper and into a dry one. Before finally leaving the stall and throwing the used one away and going to class. It was only the third week of school but he was already obsessed with finding the girl with lovely wings who haunted his sleep so much.

 

He finished changing and was halfway up the hall when he spotted another of the huge feathers on the floor. He picked it up off the floor and looked around at the sea of faces as he walked towards his first class of the day. He had a music class for his first hour class so he grabbed his guitar and found his way to the class while wondering who it was that had dropped the huge feather he had found.

 

 

He listened and did everything the teacher asked without question. “By the end of the week I will be asking some of you to join the orchestra. Anyone interested in trying out for either the band or the orchestra may talk to me at the end of the class for a time they can meet and try out. I am looking for more people to play the flute and at least one more person for the harp section.”

 

The bell rang and a few of the students stayed to get a time to audition while Kazuo walked to his next class. The math class was boring and way too easy, but he had needed an easy math class so he took the advanced math course as it freed up a part of his mind to think things through. By the end of the class he was still no closer to figuring out who the mysterious person with the wings was.

 

It was not until lunch that he saw the Asian girl he thought was pretty but off limits to everyone in the school. Her father was a scary, powerful, and very cruel towards anyone trying to even talk to his daughter. There was something about her that seemed familiar but it would not be safe to talk to her. He was intrigued by her but after a moment he looked away and so never noticed her looking at him for a minute then forcing herself to look away.

 

Kiara came up behind him as he was making his way to the restroom to change. She put one hand over his eyes and put a plastic ruler in his back as a joke. Kazuo reached back and tickled his sister where he knew she was ticklish. She jumped back as he turned and laughed at her. “You don't play fair. You were not supposed to tickle me you brat. So, when you going to go get that angel girl of yours and prove to me she is real?”

 

“I wish she would reveal herself to me. The suspense is maddening. So how about you? Any luck finding someone yet?” As a matter of fact, yes. You remember Elizabeth Arden from last year?” “She had to break up with you because her father's company transferred him to London right?” “That's the one. She's back and she found me today! Were back together again! God I love her!”

 

Kazuo smiled and was happy for his sister but wished he could find his own angel and find a way to get out of the arranged marriage. “Congrats. It's nice to see you feeling so happy again. Is she staying put now or is she going to be forced to leave again after the school year ends?” “She's staying put and going to college next year. If nothing goes terribly wrong then I'm going to go with her.”

 

“It's going to be a good year for you then but not for me. I will be getting married to a girl I don't know and have never even met. When I get married I want it to be to someone I love and not an arranged marriage.” Then find your angel and fly off with her.” “You know I can't fly. My wings were cut almost in half by those bastards working for the government before they were forced to free me and everyone else. I exercise what's left of them but I am grounded for life.”

 

“I'm sorry Kazuuo. I keep forgetting. Have you ever thought of asking Mrs. Benson who the girl is you keep dreaming about? I bet that she would know if there is someone else in school with wings as well.” “She wont tell me and I don't blame her. Avians have been given a pretty shitty shake of things by the government and all the hate mongers and religious fanatics. I'll just have to keep searching on my own. For now, I have to go use the restroom. I'll see you after school.”

 

Miriam walked into the music class with her flute and her harp. Everyone ignored her as she sat down to quietly wait for the teacher. When the teacher walked in she flared her wings out fully to get everyone's attention. Everyone quieted down and waited for her to speak. We have a new addition to the class today. Miriam plays the flute and the small harp as well. Now then, let's all get our gear out and get ready to begin. The entire class was working on a big orchestra type piece with Mrs Benson making corrections to each person as they played. When the flute piece came up Miriam grimaced at how off tune they all were and even miss Benson grimaced a bit.

 

She stopped everyone and waited a second then spoke up. “Miriam would you give this piece a try please so we can hear it from you alone and go from there.” Miriam lifted her flute up and began playing the piece perfectly and without any hesitation until the piece came to the next section which was the harp solo.

 

She switched over to her harp and played that part as well just as flawlessly until it was done. “Well done Miriam! Okay class, that is exactly how it is supposed to sound so keep working at it and we will get it right yet. Thank you Miriam for letting us hear you play today.” Everyone spent the rest of the class working in small groups to get their sound closer to the way it needed to be. Miriam was not wanted in any of the groups so she went into one of the small soundproofed cubicles and shut the door behind her.

 

Once the door was shut she sighed and began playing her harp and letting her mind drift as she played for the remainder of the class. Once the class was over she packed her instruments and silently left the class. With no one to stop her she made a quick detour to the restroom and made short work of changing out of her wet diaper. With the change done she rolled the wet diaper and dropped it into the trash can before going to her next class.

 

She was almost to her government when she saw the blond girl she usually saw with Kazuo walking down the hall and holding another girl close. She was surprised when they stopped and kissed like long lost lovers before heading to their classes. It was obvious from the look on their faces that it was sincere and not just a prank.

 

She did not interfere or say anything to them but it made her curious just what was going on as she walked on. The class was supposed to read the second chapter and answer the questions at the end of the book, but she had already read the entire book and answered all the questions so for her it was an assignment she had already completed thus leaving her mind free to ponder the implications of what she had seen.

 

By the end of the class she was happy to leave and go to lunch. She saw Kazuo and the blond girl walk up to Elizabeth and then the three of them sat down at the same table after getting their lunches. The two girls kissed one more time and Kazuo merely laughed a little about it and continued talking as if it was not an issue. Miriam continued to stare until Amy came up behind her and got her attention.

 

“Still staring at Kazuo huh. Go talk to him. Your father can't hurt anyone anymore.” “He has a girlfriend. That lucky blond goddess. Besides, I'm stuck in a damned arranged marriage so it would not be fair to get anyone's hopes up, even mine. Let's not forget about my health issues and two other big secrets as well. I'm a freak according to most people and I'm sure he'd see it the same way so there is no point in trying for what I can never have.”

 

We spent the rest of our lunch eating and discussing the play coming up on Halloween and were wondering who was going to play the lead role in the second play, “I spoke to Mrs. Addams yesterday Miriam and she wants you involved in the plays again, even if you only do tech work. She says you have proven to be a miracle worker with keeping everything working and not falling apart around their ears at times.”

 

“I was planning on working tech crew again this year. I don't think being in the spotlight would be a good idea for me. Maybe if I can get into a good and understanding college this next year then maybe it will be safe to reveal things publicly. There is a lot on my plate right now as it is though and coming out is not a good idea right now. My mom came out finally and we have been receiving death threats almost daily since she came out as a were tiger.”

 

Amy laughed. “You have a weird family and never cease to keep things from getting boring. The first meeting of the tech crew is tomorrow after school. I have to see the doctors tonight for my six month check up to make sure I am still in remission. What are you planning on doing?” “I need some time in the fresh open air and then intend to get some time in practicing my music for a bit. It helps keep me calm.”

 

“One of these days you are going to have to take me with you when you go to play your music. I've never been able to find where you go play and I have looked.” “You didn't look hard enough then. You looked nearby but I don't stay nearby when I can reach a lot of difficult places easily. But where I go to play is somewhere that a lot of others have played before but no longer do. Think about where that could be.”

 

Amy thought a moment then her face split with a smile. “Sneaky! The old amphitheater! I never thought to look there. Sometime you are going to have to let me come with you so I can hear you play. I haven't heard you play in forever.” We talked about it and the upcoming plays all through lunch until it was time for me to go and change my soaked diaper again and then go to my last class of the day.

 

Amy and I parted ways and I couldn't help but stare at Kazuo for a minute before forcing myself to look away and go get changed before my diaper leaked. I want him so bad but he is still with that blond goddess and off limits still. I snuck another look at him and saw the blond girl looking back at me and smiling. She knew and was rubbing it in that she had him and I did not. I hate my life at times.

 

Kiara smiled at Miriam and kept watching her as she turned her gaze away and hung her head in defeat. She walked off quietly and did not look back. She looked miserable and and defeated as she walked off towards the restrooms. Kiara turned and looked at Elizabeth then they both smiled as Kiara turned to tease Kazuo again and caught him staring at Miriam as she walked off.

 

“Go get her you big idiot! The two of you keep staring at each other constantly. It's plain to me that she wants you and I know you want her. Why not give it a shot? I'm sure we can keep her father busy looking at something else while you try to talk to her. Besides, she gorgeous and you deserve to at least try to find someone nice for a while. Who knows, she might even be the angel you are looking for. From what you say about her it could be her.”

 

“She is off limits guys and you both know that. As for her being an avian, I don't see any wings do you? I'll find my angel. I just have to keep looking until she leaves me another clue to follow to her. At any rate, nature calls. You two behave and don't tease too many guys.” Elizabeth and Kiara stood up and immediately started making out in front of Kazuo while blocking him in against the wall.

 

“Unless one of you wants to help me take care of a certain issue I suggest you move.” Elizabeth looked at him a moment then finally moved. “A tempting idea but I think I'll stick with this lovely blond goddess I finally got to come back to. Kazuo, If the impossible can happen to bring me back to the woman I love then it can find you some happiness as well. Maybe between your sister and I we can get her to meet you somewhere so you can talk without being spied on by her father and his associates.”

 

“I'd rather not commit suicide so if you'll excuse me, I have to take care of this, now.” Kazuo walked off towards the restroom while wondering about how he could find the girl with beautiful wings. He reached the restrooms just as Miriam was coming out of the girls restroom. She was lost in thought as was Kazuo. He had started reaching into a book bag he carried for a spare diaper when he ran straight into her and dropped the diaper on the floor.

 

Both of them hit the floor hard which surprised them as they lay there looking at each other for a moment. Miriam saw the diaper on the floor and picked it up. She checked her book bag then handed it to an embarrassed Kazuo. She looked around carefully a moment as she discretely handed the diaper back to him after making sure no one else saw it. She had a hard time not grabbing him and kissing him right there on the spot.

 

“You should really try a different brand. These work but there are better and more absorbent ones out there.” Since no one was watching she pulled her skirt up just enough to show her own thick diaper then dropped it back in place a second later. Since no one was watching she risked a quick kiss to the side of his face before forcing herself to walk off quietly before she drug him across the hall into the old auditorium and forced herself on him.

 

Kazuo watched her walking off until she turned a corner then he turned to go in and get changed. The change took longer than normal as he was very aroused thinking about Miriam and what he had just seen. He could only hope her father did not find out he had spoken to her and even been kissed on the cheek by her. Once the change was finished he came out of the restroom and instantly spotted a large feather on the floor.

 

He picked it up and to his surprise it had a familiar scent to it. It smelled exactly like Miriam's perfume did. It got him wondering instantly and he wanted to go look for her. He was about to go look when the bell brought him back to his senses and he walked to his last class of the day. His thoughts kept drifting back to Miriam and her soft voice as well as the kiss on the cheek she gave him. It surprised him to find out she wore diapers as well and made him wonder if just perhaps he had a chance with her.

 

Miriam got around the corner and leaned against the wall for a moment. Her dry diaper was now damp and not with urine. When she kissed him on the cheek she almost lost control of her desires. There was no way she could make it through class so she simply dropped off her books at her locker and then grabbed her flute and harp before going outside.

 

With no one watching she pulled the drawstrings and let her her wings out from where they had been tightly folded around her. A moment later she was in the air and flying towards the old amphitheater as fast as her wings could get her there. She needed the time to calm down and relax as well as get her rocks off so she would not rape Kazuo when she saw him next.

 

When she finally landed she dug through her bag and pulled out a fresh diaper as well as a small vibrator she had never had the courage to use before. She undid the tapes on her diaper, laid down, turned on the toy, and then ran it up and down between her legs while thinking of Kazuo. She hit her peak three times before finally being able to calm down and put the toy away.

 

A quick diaper change and she was ready to clear her mind with some music although a part of her was screaming at her to find and fuck Kazuo. It took a few more minutes of forcing herself to relax before she was ready to play some music. Since no one ever came here she did not bother to hide her wings for once. It felt better to just let then set naturally against her back as she pulled the harp into place and began to play whatever came to mind.

 

After a while she put the harp away, stood up and stretched then decided since no one would notice, she would do something she had always been tempted to do. She smiled and flew to the top of the partial stage covering with her flute in her hand. The view was incredible from her vantage point and even her diaper seemed to know better than to complain or threaten to leak.

 

The time spent playing relaxed her and let her mind wander quite a bit. She couldn't help how she felt about Kazuo and was a bit nervous about seeing him again after revealing her secret shame to him. It had surprised her to find out he was wearing diapers as well, but what must he think of her for being so straight forward about it and then daring to kiss him on the cheek.

 

He had a lovely girlfriend already. “Hell,” she thought, “He has two it looks like and they are okay with it. Lucky girls. I guess I can only hope that whoever the person that father wants me to marry will be a nice person and will help me forget about Kazuo, if that's even possible.” she was lost in thought and never noticed Kazuo as he made his way into the area with his acoustic guitar.

 

He got within sight of the stage and stopped dead when he heard the lovely flute music and then saw his angel perched high above the stage on the band shell roof. She was lost in the music and had not noticed him until he was almost close enough to get a good look at her face. She looked as lovely as the last time he had seen her and her music was spellbinding to say the least.

 

Miriam had a weird feeling and stopped playing. Walking slowly towards the stage with the sun in his face was Kazuo. She was sure it was a dream but when he got a few steps closer she snapped back to reality. Her bag and harp were still on the stage! Miriam panicked, spread her wings and dropped down fast from her perch. Making sure to keep her back turned to him. She grabbed her bag and her harp then took off as fast as she could before he recognized her.

 

She looked back just once as she saw him looking at her flying away. It was a good thing she had the sun shining down on her from above or he might have recognized her. Kazuo was desperate and without thinking about it her tried to fly after her. He made it about ten feet off the ground before his right wing gave out and dropped him back to the ground to be sick to his stomach from the vertigo.

 

The bastards had cut several of the key muscles to his wings and implanted chips in the wing joints to feed false and conflicting information to the brain about height, speed, direction of flight, and orientation in flight. The result made it impossible for him to ever fly again. He pounded the ground in agony and cried for the first time in years. He had been so close but thanks to the government he had been crippled for life and grounded forever. Thanks to them, his angel had left him again.

 

Miriam thought she heard someone crying out in pain and banked around to see a sight she never expected. Kazuo was on the ground with his own set of huge wings and was crying and pounding on the ground. It frightened her that he haunted her dreams and had somehow kept finding her. Now she saw him on the ground with his own lovely golden wings but unable to fly.

 

She hovered over the area and watched as he tried again then to horror saw him spin out of control and into the ground. Something was screwing up his flight ability! Again he tried and this time with disastrous results as he made it perhaps 15 feet up before he lost control and somersaulted and half spun into the ground hard. She heard him scream in pain and rage as he hit the ground and rolled. She heard the sickening sounds of his wings breaking as he tumbled over the first two rows of empty seats.

 

In a voice she barely recognized as her own she called out his name. “Kazuo! No!” He looked up a moment in extreme pain and then collapsed out cold from the shock of breaking his wings. Miriam forgot everything and landed next to him. His lovely wings were mangled and bone was sticking out in a few places. The blood pouring out of his wounds was a bad sign as well.

 

Miriam never stopped to think twice as she picked him up, kissed him and then flew off with him in her arms. He would die without medical help and she would never let that happen if she could prevent it. There was something going on between them and she needed some answers, even if it meant revealing her identity to him.

 

The flight to the hospital seemed to take forever as she strained to go as fast as she possibly could with him in her arms. Even with her diaper now leaking and hanging heavily she only had one thought on her mind. Saving Kazuo. It was a shock to the hospital staff when she landed outside the emergency department and went in with him in her arms and bleeding badly.

 

The nurse saw the come in and was around from the triage room in under three seconds. She grabbed Kazuo from Miriam and ran him into the triage room they used for minor diagnostics before taking a patient to a room in back for more advanced treatment. She laid him on the gurney carefully and hit the big red button on the wall. Miriam stood back and watched as the nurse worked fast at putting pressure bandages on his broken wings to slow the bleeding.

 

The doctor came running in response to the emergency button and within minutes they were rushing Kazuo into a back room where they had more equipment and better supplies to work on him with. Another nurse came out from in back and asked Miriam all sorts of questions. Miriam knew a lot of things about him already and what she did not know could be found out from asking his family.

 

When they had as much information as Miriam knew the nurse helped her clean some of the mess off her clothes and then let her take a seat in the waiting room while they contacted his family. IT was a tense 45 minutes of waiting before The blond goddess that she had assumed was his girlfriend came running in and stopped at the window to inquire about Kazuo. She talked to the nurse for a few minutes then turned to take a seat and wait as Miriam paced back and forth.

 

Kiara stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Miriam and her huge wings. “Miriam?” Miriam turned to face the girl she was sure was going to be mad as hell at her for trying to steal Kazuo from her and for hurting him. “How is he? I got him here as fast as I could fly! Is he going to make it?” The girl only stared at her in obvious shock at seeing her wings.

 

“I'm sorry! This all my fault! He tried to come after me and crashed! I tried to stay away I promise! Oh God I fucked it all up!” I felt like hell as I ran from the waiting room and took to the sky as soon as I got outside. In my haste to escape and avoid a fight I had fucked up and left everything behind me. My harp, my flute, my book bag and with it, my spare diapers. I should have been more careful. What was I going to say to her when I saw her again.

 

I leveled out at around a thousand feet and drifted on the wind while crying. I had made such a mess out of things. Father was right about me. My wings make me an abomination and make me ugly. Maybe they could be removed. It would be better for everyone if I had the surgery and then left town for good. A fresh start in a new town without wings to make me a hurtful abomination. Kazuo had been hurt because of my careless stupidity.

 

My thoughts were interrupted by my cell phone ringing with an incoming call. “Hello?” “This is Kiara. You ran away from the hospital before I could recover and I need to talk to you. Please come back and talk to us so we know what happened exactly. I'm not mad at you and neither is our mother. Please come back. Besides, I have your harp, flute, and more importantly, your spare diapers.”

 

I looked around and finally found that I had been circling the hospital in a circle of about ten miles. I was a mess to be sure. “I'm sorry. I'll be back there shortly. Is he going to make it?” “Yes. You saved his life. Now please come back here so we can talk.” To say it was a frightening ten minute flight would be an understatement. What was she going to say when I got there? What was she going to do?

 

After cutting my speed and landing she came up with my things and met me outside. “Go change before you leak anymore then we can talk. I called your mom to get your number and she is on her way as well so go change real fast.” I accepted my bag from her and then walked into the restroom to change my leaking diaper.

 

It took a few minutes to get cleaned up and changed since the leak had not been the only problem. At some point in my mad flight I had light;y messed my diaper as well so it took a few extra minutes to get cleaned up before another diaper could be put on. With nothing more to do it was time to go face my accuser.

 

She looked worried and nervous when I walked back out into the waiting room. “We talked with a doctor a few minutes after you ran away. They are going to have to operate but it is going to be a long and tough operation. We need to sit and discuss a great number of things and clear things up before it gets any more messed up. Her mother and her told me everything about Kazuo and about the work the government surgeons had done on him as a test before he was freed along with all the rest they had been holding captive and experimenting on.

 

“Kazuo is my brother, not my boyfriend. Besides, I have a lovely girlfriend and I am engaged to her. I'm a lesbian so he is not my type. He has been searching for you for several months now since he first saw you. When he wakes up I think it would be a good idea if you went in to see him and don't hide those lovely wings.”

 

“She's right you know. I even told you that before you went back to school.” I turned and hugged my mother as my tears started to flow again. “I screwed up so bad mother. I hurt him even though I never wanted to.” “Calm down honey and tell us all what exactly happened. I won't yell at you. We all just want to know what happened is all.” I sat down and told them everything. The dreams the discovery of his diapers, the kiss, my confusion, and then the accident that put him in here.

 

Kiara reached over and hugged me. It's not your fault, honey. I can't say as I blame you for being afraid to come out as an avian, but this accident was not your fault. He knows he can't fly anymore. He knew better. The two of you need to talk when he wakes up and get things straightened out between the two of you. It's obvious you two want and need each other. So talk to him and go from there one step at a time.”

 

Kazuo had emergency surgery to fix his badly mangled wings and then to remove the inhibitor chips the government scientists had put in them. He was kept asleep for three days while the wings healed and his brain got a slow reset from not having the chips messing with his balance every time he moved his wings.

 

The doctor would not let me see him right away as he was still in the intensive care ward for two more weeks yet. School was a nervous time for me as I walked in after the incident and for a change did not hide my wings. Several people stared at me in surprise but amy, Kiara, and Elizabeth threatened to kick their asses if they got too rude or tried anything stupid.

 

Mrs Benson supported me fully and it helped, but the problem of seeing and talking with Kazuo lingered over my head. When he was finally moved from intensive care to general care they allowed me to go see him. After school was out I skipped the drama club work and flew straight to the hospital to meet his family and then go in to see him.

 

Kiara walked in and then his mother walked into his room as well while I waited like a nervous wreck. Kiara finally smiled and laughed at her brother as he talked about trying to get to the angel he had seen and heard. “She was so close. I couldn't stop myself even though I knew better. Did you see her? Wait a minute, who brought me here? I never thought to ask until now.”

 

His mother just smiled then spoke. “A very special young lady who it seems has been dreaming about you just as much as you have about her. Kiara had a hell of a time calming her down when she thought she had killed you.” Is she here? Can I see her?” I was listening and decided it was now or never. I took a deep breath and walked into the room. “Hello Kazuo.”

 

END PART FOUR

PART FIVE

Kazuo stared in surprise at me. Of all the people in the world to come out as an avian he would never have suspected me to be one as well. “Miriam? Is this a trick or some kind of joke on me?” “No tricks. No jokes. This is the real me, wings and all. This has been a big mess and a lot of false assumptions were made on my part.” Kazuo shook his head and then rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not dreaming.

 

I sat down on the edge of the bed next to him and finally put his right had on my wing to let him know without a doubt that my wings were not a sick joke on him. He looked at m,e with longing, sadness and confusion. “Why didn't you tell me the truth? I've been searching for you all over the school but no one knew about you it seems.” I'm sorry Kazuo. This talk is long overdue as is something else.”

 

Before Kazuo could say anything I simply pulled him to me and kissed him deeply. I have been wanting to kiss him like this for so long it was driving me crazy and now with him in my embrace seems seemed right for the first time in years. When I broke the kiss he smiled, sighed and then pulled me into another long and passionate kiss that left me weak in the knees and with a soaked diaper.

 

I excused myself to go change. “I will be right back Kazuo, I have to change or risk a leak. His mother stared at me in surprise. “I'm medically incontinent ma'am. Have been my whole life. I wear diapers to manage the issue. It's fairly common among avians.” I borrowed the restroom and made short work of changing myself into a clean diaper while wishing Kazuo could help me get changed.

 

Once changed and feeling better I dropped the wet diaper into the wastebasket in the restroom then walked back out to talk to Kazuo some more and try to sort things out. Kazuo and I spent the rest of the day talking and trying to work things out. It was tough to keep our hands to ourselves but he was still in bad shape so I would have to wait to go further than kissing with him.

 

Once visiting hours were over I promised him that he would see me again the next day after school and homework was done. With Kazuo knowing the truth about me it made my life easier to a point. A few idiots at the school kept teasing me and smacking my wings when they passed by me. There were notes stuck in my locker vents almost everyday and it was getting to the point of being annoying.

 

With only a week to go before the play Elizabeth was hurt in a hit and run accident. She ended up with two broken ribs, a severe concussion and a broken ankle. She had been crossing the street to get to her car when some idiot came zooming out of the parking lot and didn't see her until he hit her. The asshole never even stopped. Elizabeth would be spending Christmas at home at least, but she was going to be hurting quite a bit thanks to the idiot that hit her.

 

When all of us assembled for the drama club meeting we had to try to figure out how to do the play without Elizabeth. Leave it to Amy to come up with a crazy idea that would force me into the spotlight . “Why not have Miriam play the part? She knows the lines as she has been helping Elizabeth memorize them. She also plays the harp and the flute perfectly. She also has real wings and does not have to use wires and fake wings to fly. That lovely Jade green kimono is actually borrowed from Miriam so I know it fits her perfectly.”

 

“I'm flattered guys, but it wouldn't work out. Amy, you know why it wouldn't work out so why recommend me?” Jane spoke up politely. “Miriam, we all know about your incontinence. None of hold it against you or think less of you because of it. We can easily give you a long enough break between acts to change if you need to do so. We can set up a changing table for you and Amy can change you.”

 

“What?!” both Amy and I both blurted that out at the same time then everyone started laughing at us. “We got you!” We can do the breaks between acts easily enough though and if your boyfriend shows up you can have him change you.” I blushed deeply at that thought and they all laughed. My boyfriend is in the hospital recovering from surgery. He might get out in time for the play but not likely.”

 

Jane almost had whiplash she turned her head around so fast. “What?! You actually have a boyfriend? I thought your father had the last boy almost killed for talking to you. What happened?” My father is out of the picture for good now. My boyfriend is someone you will all meet in due time, but for now, are you sure there is not someone else better for this role?”

 

“No one else here plays the harp or the flute. None of the rest of us know the lines. The final nail in the coffin is that none of us have real wings like you do. The play is about a young shrine maiden who falls in love with a mortal under a terrible curse to be a tiger by night and a human by day. All the ancient writings say that the maiden had green wings with red tips. You are a dead ringer for the shrine maiden.

 

Have you ever seen some of the paintings of the maiden? She looks identical to you. Read the full legend sometime.” “I have. It is sad at the end as they are both torn from each other for eternity by angry spirits and cursed to never see each other again until both of them share the same form. The spirits were banished to eternal darkness for their deeds and it is stated that the two lovers souls still search for a way to come together. It is one of my favorite stories and I have a copy of it in written in Ancient Imperial Japanese in the third century. The manuscript is old but readable still. It was passed on to me from my birth mother before she died. I have translated it and have it in English on my computer if you want a copy.”

 

By the end of the meeting they had talked me into taking the lead role in the play. With the meeting over I went to go see Kazuo at the hospital. When I walked out of the drama department I was shocked to see Kazuo standing there in the hall waiting for me. His lovely wings were in plain sight and he smiled when he saw me. There was no hesitation as I flew into his arms.

 

He about fell over as I grabbed him and kissed him in front of everyone. Kazuo returned the kiss just as greedily and it was all we could do to keep from going further. I finally broke off the kiss and realized that everyone was staring at us. Amy merely smiled as she had known for some time about Kazuo being an avian since I kept her updated on everything.

 

Jane looked in shock at the wings and then spoke up finally. “Kazuo? You have wings?” “Since the age of ten. Kept them hidden due to not being able to use them until the surgery fixed them.” “Wow. I take it you and her are together?” “Yes.” “Congratulations to both of you. You two look happy together. So how long have you two been together now?”

 

She brought me to the hospital after she saw me crash and saved my life. I have been wanting her for some time and she has been wanting me as well, but certain issues kept us apart until recently. Now we have each other for as long as we can.” The two of us held onto each other then walked outside and took to the sky for some alone time together and to get away from all the questions.

 

We had to stop frequently to let Kazuo rest his wings but I did not mind until he started to leak. We landed at the place where he had crashed. The sun was setting when he started looking around for a place to change real fast. There was no planning involved in what occurred next, he was so god looking and it was too much to resist.

 

I tackled him to the stage and pulled his clothes off then finally his diaper went off as well. “I have been dreaming of this for a long time and you are not going to deny me.” My clothes came off in a hurry and within a few seconds he was inside of me. It hurt at first but soon I was too far gone to care and we made love for the first time for quite some time before we were both finally satisfied and exhausted beyond caring.

 

I put a fresh diaper on him and he returned the favor for me. It was getting chilly out so we decided to fly back before it got much colder. We took to the air and flew on silently until we reached my house. He kissed me goodnight but there were more important things on my mind than saying goodnight. As soon as the door was open I drug him in and up to my room.

 

When the sun finally woke us up the next morning the clock on the wall said it was almost 10:00 am. We were both late for school. We gathered up our clothes, changed each other and were intercepted by my mother at the front door. “You are both excused from morning classes today. You two kept me up almost all night so I knew you'd be sleeping in. Welcome to the family Kazuo. Next time though, use condoms.

 

Now with that out of the way you two both need to shower then eat before going to your afternoon classes. The two of us shared a shower and had a a hard time keeping ourselves from making love again. Once dressed we ate then stepped outside for a short flight to the school. I had my homework, my harp and my flute as usual. Poor Kazuo would have to get his homework from his house before meeting me at school.

 

Halfway to school we both said the hell with it and stopped at his house together to find out what his mother would think of us being together. Kiara looked like hell when she opened the door for us. She had been crying and was in bad shape. “Elizabeth had a heart attack last night. She's alive but in critical condition. She had an allergic reaction to one of the pain killers they gave her.”

 

We both hugged her and promised to stop back by after school to check in on her if we could. Kazuo grabbed his guitar and his homework along with a couple of spare diapers. Kiara was such a mess emotionally that it took her a few minutes to realize that Kazuo and I were holding each other and obviously happy together.

 

She smiled at us as she wiped her face a bit. “Congratulations to both of you. About damned time too. Take care of each other now and don;t l;et anyone else tell you that you don't belong together no matter what happens. Now get going to school. I'm excused for the day to get my emotions under control. We'll talk later.”

 

Kazuo and I flew off to the school and arrived just as the lunch bell was ringing. We both laughed about it and walked inside together. Several people stopped and stared at us as we walked up the hallway together. It had taken them a few weeks to get used to me being an avian and now seeing Kazuo with wings as well was a surprise to them. Several girls still drooled over kazuo as we walked to the cafeteria.

 

We passed by Mrs. Benson and she stopped dead in her tracks then turned to look at us for a moment before smiling and stopping us. “You two have bonded I see. Dreams?” “Kazuo laughed and replied. “For the past number of months. She came to me finally in the hospital and confessed. We talked a lot and got things straightened out. Last night we sealed the bond at the old amphitheater. Now if we can solve a few other issues by the end of the school year we should be set.”

 

She hugged us both and congratulated us then asked to be invited to the wedding. We both stopped dead in our tracks for a moment then told her we would tell her when it was as soon as we figured that out ourselves. When we sat down finally in a corner of the cafeteria we started talking about the arranged marriage I was stuck in. He was stuck in one himself and wanted out of it.

 

We decided that at the end of the school year to just make a run for it before the arrangement could be forced on us. We already had the college picked out that we wanted to attend out of state. With my savings in just my name it would not be difficult paying for my tuition and books. The special account would have to remain untouched until I had confirmation of my college or of my marital status.

 

We both had planned to use our status as avians and our incontinence as leverage if need be to get out of the arranged marriages. Neither of us were told who we were to be tied to but we did not want to be separated. By the time lunch was over we had a plan figured out on how to get out of the marriage situation and stay together.

 

When we finally parted for our last two classes of the day we agreed to meet at the auditorium after the last class so he could be allowed to watch the dress rehearsal for the shrine maiden play that they had managed to get me to now star in thanks to poor Elizabeth getting so badly hurt. Before the curtains went up I had Kazuo help me change into a dry diaper. It was an interesting change that left me weak in the knees thanks to his tongue and fingers doing everything just right. Amy laughed about when we finally emerged from where I had been getting changed.

 

“You two need to get a room you know that? At any rate, we are ready to begin so if you will allow me to get Kazuo to a seat we will begin. I promise to not try to seduce him no matter how tempting it is.” Kazuo grabbed me and kissed me deeply before allowing Amy to show him to the front row center stage seat.

 

We went through the entire two hour dress rehearsal with the only malfunction being the cable system that was supposed to lift me straight up and into the darkness at the end of the play. The whole thing was jammed and it would take some time to fix so I opted for a different approach to the end of the play. I said my final lines and then flew off the stage and over the seats then back around in a tight turn to vanish into the darkness above the stage.

 

Mrs. Saunders loved the new idea I had come up with. We sectioned off a small area near the top two rows to make room for me to safely turn without hitting anyone with my wings as I turned. Kazuo caught up with me backstage as I was once again changing my diaper. “That is a lovely play and so well done it is amazing! You held me spellbound with your playing. The guy playing the were tiger was good and it looked so real when he changed!

 

It is real Kazuo. He is a were tiger. He was suckered into the leading role like I was. He has a lovely girlfriend who is also a were tiger. They are engaged to be married in a few months, so you need not worry about him trying to steal me from your arms.” Kazuo smiled and then kissed me. I have no worries there. Once graduation is over then we make our own destiny. Now I think I could use a little help getting changed.”

 

I laughed and gladly joined him across the hall in the old auditorium backstage. I saw you here one day and still have the feather you shed in your rapid escape from the area.” I laid Kazuo down and changed him into a dry diaper. The change took us almost an hour as I got sneaky and went down on him. Once we were finished and back out to the main hall everyone else was finally gone.

 

“So what do you want for Christmas this year?” I laughed then replied, “For Elizabeth to make a miraculous recovery and take back the lead role.” He laughed and shook his head. “I don't see that happening. I think you are a natural for that role and they were right to talk you into it. So how long is the full play from start to finish?”

 

“Almost four hours. We have decided to do the last part of the play where the spirits are punished for forcing the two apart. It would be all talking since there is no way to do that part without a huge budget and massive special effects.” “I still like it though and it a very good play. I want to see you when you do it in front of a full house if I can get a ticket.”

 

“I have a seat reserved for you already up in the top row off to the far left. He knew when he was being teased and silenced my teasing with a kiss. “Okay Okay, I have you in the seat you had tonight. I want to be able to see you there front and center so I have the courage to do this. I'm not used to being in front of the audience as normally all my work is behind the scenes in the tech crew.”

 

We flew toward home and said goodnight before banking off in separate directions. It felt lonely without him near me but I would see him in school tomorrow morning and sit with him in lunch as well as in music class. When my flight path brought me to home it was tempting to turn around and go back to Kazuo. This was just what was almost what happened until my bowels exploded into my diaper and filled it with a mess that was sure to smell and require a shower to clean off completely. My luck sucks some days it seems.

 

After landing I walked in and my mother handed me a clean diaper as I made my way to the bathroom to get rid of the horrible mess taped securely around my waist. After dropping everything off it was time to deal with the mess. With the fan on high it helped but not enough to stop me from almost gagging. The mess was horrible and took a while to clean up completely.

 

This is one aspect of having to wear diapers that is never any fun no matter what others might think. Once out of the shower and dried off it was time for a clean diaper before I pissed on the floor. With so much experience in changing my diapers it took me less than a minute to get a fresh one on and adjusted just right. With my diaper on and adjusted I threw on a nightie and then went to my room and crashed for the night wishing that Kazuo was here with me.

 

Sleep was slow to come but finally it came and brought with it erotic dreams of Kazuo and I changing each other and making love. When the daylight finally came my diaper was soaked from more than just urine. After a quick shower and a fresh diaper change it was time to grab my things for the last day of school before the holiday vacation started for a week.

 

I grabbed my instruments and my book bag before stopping back in the bathroom for some spare diapers. I opened my bottom drawer and grabbed four spare diapers then put them in my book bag along with my wipes. I rarely eat breakfast as I like to get in some time in the air before school so I grabbed an energy bar and inhaled it on my way out the door. My mother laughed and wished me a good day at school as I took to the air while she stood watching me fly off.

 

I double checked my book bag and found that she had included a package of lubricated condoms in it as her way of giving me her blessings to get laid. It made me laugh a little at how predictable my mother found me to be when everyone else had a hard time figuring me out. At least she cared more for me than my father ever had and it hurt a little to not tell her my plans for the end of the school year with Kazuo.

 

The air was a bit cool this morning but it was too good of a chance to fly to pass up. Flying never ceases to help me blow off stress and make the rest of the day go by smoother. With my father gone and everyone knowing about my wings already it was a lot easier to get flying time in. With 20 minutes to go before my first class I managed to finally force my self to turn and glide towards the school.

 

The time it took me to fly school was faster than the bus which had to make numerous stops so Amy was not yet there when I finally arrived and landed outside the front door of the school. A group of girls stared is shock at seeing me come in for a landing. I guess there are still a few people not used to seeing me fly. That or they were new students perhaps. Either way they were not of major importance to me as I looked for Kazuo.

 

I heard a voice as I opened the door and looked up to see Kazuo come flying in a bit unsteadily. He landed and was in my arms a second later. “Still not used to flying but my wings are healing and getting stronger all the time.” “I don't mind. I love you and that's all that matters. What does your schedule look like after school today?” “I have a drop dead gorgeous angel to please in any way I can. Do you have play rehearsal tonight?” “Nope. Have to get some in work on something far more important though.” I showed him the condoms and he actually blushed. It made me laugh as we walked through the halls with most people ignoring us and only a few staring at us.

 

“I have to go through some physical therapy after classes today but I will be finished by around 5:30 if you want to come with me.” “Wild horses couldn't keep me from your side. Wild parties, maybe.” He laughed then kissed me deeply with several girls looking like they were jealous of us. Tough. I went through hell and so did he so we could be with each other.

 

“So how is your sister doing?” “She's worried big time about Elizabeth. Elizabeth woke up this morning so Kiara is at the hospital with her. Mom and dad excused her from school as there was no way to keep her from going there instead of to school. Maybe we can stop by in the next couple of days and talk to her is she is out of the ICU before the vacation ends.”

 

“I hope she gets out in time for the play in two weeks. We are having it a week after we all come back from vacation. So any any luck in getting out of the arranged mess or figuring out who she is?” “My mother is tight lipped about it and refuses to tell me anything except that it is for the best. I am supposed to meet her a week before the ceremony in order to get to know her. Any luck on your end?”

 

Not a damned bit. They wont tell my mother but they have promised to not threaten her anymore. She got mad and put four of them in the hospital when they tried to threaten her the last time. They have learned that pissing off a woman who turns into a tiger is not smart. The Yakuza in involved thanks to my bastard of a father promising them something. I am supposed to meet my future husband before the ceremony as is custom but with luck we will be long gone by then.”

 

Kazuo kissed me and then promised to meet at the west doors after classes. We parted and I made my way to my locker. A girl about my age caught up to me and slammed a bible into my face then started babbling about me being a blasphemous and unholy spawn of Satan. I took the bible out of her hands and threw it out into the hall.

 

“Whore! Spawn of Satan!” I had enough of this shit to last a lifetime and simply ignored her insults and put my things into my locker then grabbed my harp and flute for my morning music class before shutting the door. She grabbed my right wing and instantly I turned on her. I slammed her against the wall and held her pinned there.

 

“You ever yank on my wing like that again and it will be a long and painful recovery in a hospital for you. I am not an angel nor have I ever claimed to be one. I am not a demon either you little twit. I am an avian so next time you get stupid, take a deep breath, count to ten and then use your brain before you do something to get hurt.”

 

I let go of the girl and turned to go to class as the bell rang. “Whore spawn of Satan! Burn in hell deceiver!” A blinding pain hit me in the back as the girl rammed a long and slim knife into my back. I hit the floor in pain as the girl tried to grab my wings and injure me further. Someone grabbed her and held her as I staggered to my feet in pain and tried to get to help.

 

Kazuo was almost to his first class when he heard Miranda scream out in pain. Without thinking about he sprinted down the hall as fast as he could go. People were knocked aside when they got in the way of him. Miriam came staggering out from a row of lockers and fell to the floor with a large knife in her e you and I want to marry you, but on our terms and not theirs.

 

We can use this and the fact that we both wear diapers as well as have wings as leverage to break the agreement legally and then get married on our terms.” Kazuo answered me simply by kissing me and taking me to bed. “For you, I would gladly live a pauper's life.” “We will have to if you don't take me and knock me up so get busy you breeding stud.” He simply laughed and soon helped me forget everything but the feeling of making love with him.

 

When we emerged a few hours later my mother began to tell us some of the details of her plan but stopped and threatened to change both of us if we did not get dry diapers on right away. We agreed it was for the best if we changed and heard her plan out all the way. When we finished changing she told us the rest of her plan. It was simple and would frighten the hell out the yakuza at the same time. After explaining it to us I took Kazuo back to bed for another round of making love. He has great stamina and recovers fast.

 

Kiara stopped by with Amy later that afternoon and talked with my mother as Kazuo and I made love again. My mother wanted them in on the plan as well since they were close to us both. This was a plan that was going to be interesting to say the least when the ceremonial first meeting got underway. They would have a ceremony they would not soon forget if all went right. Once we finished making love and changed into clean diapers we talked to them both and filled them in on what they had missed. They loved the plan.

END PART FIVEback. “MIRIAM!”

 

A boy holding a girl lost his grip and she came running straight for him and Miriam with a face full of hate. She never had a chance to do anything more as Kazuo grabbed her and slammed her head into the floor as hard as he could from his kneeling position beside Miriam. The girl's head hit the floor with a loud and sickening crunch. Her body hit the floor and she did not move again as Kazuo picked up Miriam and and snarled at anyone nearby until they cleared out his way as he opened his wings all the way to fly off.

 

He looked up and leaped into the air with Miriam in his arms and flew the length of the hallway then stopped near the East end of the building on the second floor. Several students saw him carrying the limp and bleeding body of Miriam towards the nurse's office. He walked into the nurse's office and heard her gasp as she looked up from the paperwork she had been working on.

 

The nurse did everything she could but it was no good. The knife had been aimed perfectly to go through the second heart and Miriam never stood a chance. Kazuo screamed in rage and went after the girl that was being looked over by a teacher. “She's dead you murdering bitch! Why?!” Kazuo pushed the teacher out of the way and then grabbed the limp body of the girl. Before anyone could stop him he took and smashed her head against the floor hard enough to completely crush the skull to a pulp.

 

Tears rolled down his eyes as he walked out of the building to go to the church that had sent the girl to kill his beloved Miriam. He took three steps outside the building and was about to fly off when he heard a voice yell out to him. “Hey freak!” Kazuo turned to see who had called out to him and a second later his head exploded as a large caliber bullet hit him in the head.

 

Kazuo woke up breathing hard and crying. The nightmare had frightened him badly and it took a few minutes to calm down. After calming down he made his way to the bathroom to change his soaked and messy diaper. Kiara caught up to him as he came out of the bathroom after cleaning up and changing. “Bad dream?” “Horrible.” Kiara held him and then let him tell her about the nightmare. “I know it was only a dream but I have to hear her voice.”

 

Kiara smiled softly at him and then handed him her cell phone after dialing Miriam's number for him. Miriam's mother answered the phone and he could hear Miriam in the background crying. “She had a horrible nightmare as well. She'll be better after she calms down, changes and then has you in her arms so get over here for both of your sakes.” Kazuo grabbed his clothes and was dressed in record time.

 

Kiara knew it had to be bad to make him this upset. He ran outside and took to the sky immediately as Kiara dialed the number again to talk to Miriam's mother. “He's on his way ma'am and frightened out of his mind. What exactly is going on?” “The merging of two souls that belong together. It's common for avians to experience this when they bond this deeply and perfectly. They need each other.”

 

She explained it to Kiara carefully and in terms that made sense to Kiara. She heard Kazuo arrive a few seconds after the explanation was done. “Thank you ma'am for explaining this to me. I feel that way about Elizabeth as well and felt it when she got hurt. It is a weird experience and frightening but I wouldn't have it any other way. Take care of the big lug for me ma'am.”

 

Kazuo was relieved when he saw Miriam alive and only a bit spooked. He let out a sigh of relief and in a second they were in each others arms. “Both of you need to go to bed and then talk after you have gotten some sleep.” “I'll take the guest room ma'am. Sorry for the chaos.” Miriams mother smiled and grabbed him by his shoulder and steered him straight for Miriam's room. “You will sleep with her tonight. You two need each other so get in there and don't argue it. Condoms are on the nightstand, and fresh diapers are in her bottom drawer.” Kazuo thanked her and walked into the bedroom.

 

I looked up and saw Kazuo walking into my room. I smiled and helped him out of his clothes before he grabbed a condom and put it on. I had him in me a second later for three very mind blowing orgasms before he hit his own peak and erupted inside the condom. The diaper under me was wet from my fluids but I did not mind. He was just what I needed.

 

He helped put me into a dry diaper then I gladly helped put him one as well before we went to sleep. When we finally woke up we spent quite a bit of time talking. We'd had identical nightmares and that was eerie. Having him make love to me and then being there to hold me banished any further nightmares. When we finished talking I noticed the clock said 10:00 am. I was about to jump out of bed in a panic when it hit me it was a Saturday and holiday vacation as well.

 

Since there was no rush to get out of bed I stripped Kazuo out of his wet diaper and then removed mine as well. I had him at full attention a moment later and then slid down onto him for some slow and prolonged lovemaking. It was only after we had finished that it hit me we had not used a condom this time. There was a chance I might end up pregnant, but a big part of me asked would that really be so bad?

 

I decided that it would not stop us from what we wanted to do. I have a huge amount of money in my trust fund and Kazuo has a huge trust fund from the government as well. We could live out our remaining lives comfortably without having to ever work while raising a family and still have plenty of money to leave to our children when we passed. Kazuo and I fell asleep again after putting fresh diapers on each other.

 

It was a perfect start to our holiday in my opinion. When we finally got up for the day it was almost noon. I felt perfectly relaxed and at ease with him in my arms. When we finally emerged from the room my mother had already left for work. She left me a note telling us to help ourselves to some food and try to forget the horrible dream with some music together.

 

I showed Kazuo the note and he smiled at the idea. “I don't have my guitar here and I have no talent for the flute so maybe you can teach me the harp. I always wanted to learn how to play it.” “That sounds like a great way to have some fun. Either that or we go back to my room and go at it a few more hours to make sure we have that music right.”

 

Kazuo is a wonderful guy and I know how to make him blush. He turned red and smiled at the idea. We ended up playing music though and had a great time doing so. He picked up the harp and within an hour was playing almost as good as I do. I have the advantage of experience but he is good at it. We were working on a piece of music together when my mother came home.

 

“I half expected you to be busy making love again the way you two went at it last night and again this morning. I did some checking around and think I have some information that you two should know about the arranged marriage you are both being railroaded into. The truth will surprise both of you so sit down while I explain it all to you and then we can talk about how to derail the mess with some help.”

 

Kazuo, your mother helped set up the marriage for the end of the school year to give her time to try to find a way to get you out of it. She has told your father nothing to protect him from possible backlash. Miriam, your Marriage was set up on this end by your greedy and manipulative father before I ended the contract between us. The two of you both have a lot of money in trust funds and some very greedy individuals would like to get their hands on it but they have to be careful how they do it.”

 

She laid out the entire scheme of how two greedy people wanted the money and had help from the yakuza in getting things arranged to get the money legally and leave them both penniless and married to someone they both had never met. It was was very sneaky, ruthless and perfectly legal. My mother then dropped a bombshell on us.

 

“The two of you are engaged to each other. I think with help from my clan we will stop their little farce and make it clear that you two are off limits to their scheming. The contract is well drawn up but there is a loophole I found in it. She showed it to us and I laughed my ass off about it while she smiled. Kazuo blushed when he was shown the loophole in the contract.

 

There was a clause in the contract that made it all null and void if I got pregnant before the wedding day. “Kazuo my dear, take me to bed and fuck my brains out until I walk funny for a week.” “What?!” I laughed as did my mother. “Don't try to act surprised when deep down inside you and I both know we want children. Kazuo, I love you and I want to marry you, but on our terms and not theirs.

 

We can use this and the fact that we both wear diapers as well as have wings as leverage to break the agreement legally and then get married on our terms.” Kazuo answered me simply by kissing me and taking me to bed. “For you, I would gladly live a pauper's life.” “We will have to if you don't take me and knock me up so get busy you breeding stud.” He simply laughed and soon helped me forget everything but the feeling of making love with him.

 

When we emerged a few hours later my mother began to tell us some of the details of her plan but stopped and threatened to change both of us if we did not get dry diapers on right away. We agreed it was for the best if we changed and heard her plan out all the way. When we finished changing she told us the rest of her plan. It was simple and would frighten the hell out the yakuza at the same time. After explaining it to us I took Kazuo back to bed for another round of making love.

Once we finished making love and changed into clean diapers we talked to them both and filled them in on what they had missed. They loved the plan.

END PART FIVE

Here is the last chapter of this story.  hope you folks like it.

 

 

PART SIX

The holiday vacation was a blessing for me in that I got to be with Kazuo almost everyday. We talked about our lives and learned a lot about each other. We got along wonderfully and it was obvious to everyone near me that we were head over heels for each other. We spent a lot of time flying and working on Kazuo's endurance so we could fly for longer periods of time before having to land. He also got really good at changing my wet, and occasionally messy diapers.

 

I learned that he loved having me change him as well and to be honest, I liked helping him that way. Weird I know, but it's the truth. I loved helping take care of him. He had nightmares from his days in captivity but they were getting fewer and fewer. He told me everything and it made me wish that I could get my hands on those bastards myself. The sadistic bastards had put chips in his wing joints to prevent him from flying away.

 

The chips fed false information to his brain and messed up his sense of balance so it was impossible for him to ever fly without crashing. The sick bastards thought it was funny and repeatedly forced him to try to fly and then laughed when he crashed. One bad crash almost killed him and left him in diapers for good thanks to a spinal injury. A lot of times his wings would hurt and I would massage them for him until the pain faded and he could move them freely again.

 

As the week rolled on we saw each other as often as we could and even Amy kept finding excuses to push us together. I would later find out why she tended to be nervous around Kazuo and tried to avoid being near him. We would spend a good part of our days playing music, talking and then making love. It was a perfect way to spend the days in my opinion.

 

All too soon the holiday vacation was over and it was time for us to return to school. I wanted to talk to Amy as she was going to be important in the breaking of that damnable contract to turn us into slaves making babies and having nothing more than the clothes on our backs. The full contract that had been drawn up was found by my mother but she refused to say how she got her hands on it except that it would give me nightmares to know.

 

The yakuza would gain control of all of our money and decide what we needed or did not need. Any children we had would be removed from our custody and adopted out to those they felt would be more suitable parents. They would have full say as to where we lived, where we went, when we went anywhere, and even what we ate. We would be prisoners with no lives.

 

During the holiday vacation my mother kept meeting with a number of people who seemed to know her but I had never seen before. On the first day of school after vacation I came back home after play practice and she introduced me to a man that she claimed was her father. The man was huge and intimidating in his stance. He looked me over then smiled at me. “It is nice to finally meet you in person. Where is Kazuo at today?” “He had a mountain of homework and a doctor's appointment for his wings. I'm getting ready to go meet him in a few minutes as he finishes his physical therapy. I had to drop off my books and change first.”

 

I changed into a clean diaper then grabbed my book bag with three spare diapers and some wipes before leaving to go meet Kazuo. He watched in curiosity as I stretched my wings out fully then smiled as I took to the sky. I got the feeling he was proud of me for something. Amy would love him with his build and it made me think about pulling a prank on her and introducing her to him without telling her who or what he was.

 

Once we arrived at the school I circled a few times to cut my airspeed down then finally landed outside the main doors as several people stared at me when I came in for a landing. “I don't care how many times I see you flying, it is still a cool thing to see.” I smiled and thanked Cheryl before going inside while folding my wings like normal.

 

The hallways were crowded as always and no one paid any more attention to us than usual as we finally split up and walked to our lockers. I dropped off my books and diapers in my locker before grabbing my flute and my harp for music class. I got to the music class and set next to Kazuo. Mrs. Benson entered and smiled at us before taking attendance.

 

“Okay class, those of you in the orchestra know that we have a performance coming up in three weeks so keep practicing. Miriam, don't forget that you have a performance coming up as well in two weeks. With that done let's get to work on that piece we all worked on before the vacation.” Kazuo and I split up at this point to help a pair of students that were trying to get a couple of the pieces right.

 

After this class was over we kissed briefly outside the class then went on to our next classes. We met again at lunch. I was late getting to the table due to making a pit stop to change my wet diaper. Once there I hugged and then kissed Kazuo. Amy smiled and was about to get up and leave until I made her sit down again.

 

“You don't have to get up and leave every time we are together Amy. Kazuo likes you and you have been my friend since we were in grade school. Tell us what's bothering you.” “It's nothing that you two can do anything to fix and I just have to deal with it on my own.” I looked at Kazuo then whispered in his ear. He smiled then nodded yes. “Amy, can you meet us after classes today? We have some things to discuss about the plan with you.”

 

“I don't have any plans so I can do that. West side exit as always?” “Yup. We can't talk here. Too many ears and loose lips. I have rehearsal tomorrow so today is the best time to talk about the plan and other things.” Kazuo chimed in and started teasing her when he saw her looking at one of the guys a few tables over from us. “Just go walk up to him, flash him, kiss him, and then ask if he wants to get together for a quickie before the next class.”

 

Amy frowned then then turned back away from him with a sad look on her face. “No. That wont help. We had a fight over something stupid and we need to cool down before we talk again.” I looked over at her as she kept looking at him with longing. “How long have you two been dating?” “All summer and the entire school year now. We got together a few days after school let out and it was all going good until a few days ago and now it's all gone to Hell.”

 

I hugged her and led her away for some private girl talk. We made it down to the East end and stopped. “What was the argument about?” “I'm not sure how you will be able to fix it. It's a mess. I love him and I had thought he'd be happy but it led to an argument instead.” “What was the argument about?” She looked at me then sighed. Her hand drifted down to her belly and stayed there a moment.

 

It hit me like a ton of bricks then. “Holy shit! How far along are you?” “Almost two months now. He's the father and he knows it but we had a fight and he accused me of sleeping around. I think it will be fine in a week or two after he gets over the shock. I can't help how I feel about him and it is driving me crazy to be so close and yet so far from him.”

 

I hugged her and saw Kazuo walking up the hall looking angry. He was almost up to me when some little blond bitch came up to him and said something to him. Kazuo turned around and looked for just a moment like he wanted to hit her. “If you don't like my kind as you say then do yourself a favor and leave me alone when I walk away from you or you may end up getting hurt.”

 

“You're a freak and shouldn't even be here. You should be chained up and sold at public auction as a slave or better yet, you should have someone chop those fucking wings off of you first then sell you as a fucking slave.” “It would be best for you right now ma'am if you left me alone before you really upset me. Have a nice day ma'am.”

 

Kazuo turned to walk away when she grabbed his right wing and yanked hard. “Don't you walk away from me you fucking freak!” The girl was obviously not very smart or she would never have done that to him or any avian. He yanked his wing out of her grasp as he spun on her. She never stood a chance to defend herself as his fist flew into her face so fast it was a blur even to my vision.

 

There was a sickening smack and crunching sound as he connected. Her head snapped back hard and was followed by the rest of the body which landed about eight feet away from where she had stood. I would be very surprised if she did not have skull half caved in from that hit. For avians it is instinctive to protect our wings and lash out at anyone or anything pulling on them in that way.

 

With our heightened reflexes and speed along with our considerably higher than human strength it can be fatal for anyone stupid enough to do what she just did. Amy stared at Kazuo in shock for a second then slowly walked over to the girl. “She's got a broken nose for sure, but is still alive and breathing. I say we leave the bitch for someone else to find.”

 

since no one else seemed to see the fight we made a break for it and left her laying in the deserted side hallway. Amy and I talked to Kazuo the rest of the lunch hour to calm him down and it worked fairly well. Once the bell for the classes rang we all made our way to our last class of the day after agreeing on where to meet after class.

 

Someone must have found the girl laying on the floor out cold because about 15 minutes into class an ambulance came for her. From my class we could see the ambulance crew take her down the hall as fast as they could run with a bag on her face pushing air into her lungs. Oops. I think he may have hit her a little too hard. No loss either way in my opinion. I hate racist pieces of trash like her and she got just what she deserved.

 

Class settled down and soon the event was all but forgotten as we turned in assignments and began reading from our govt. books. It was boring stuff but required. Personally I think they like to try to bore us to death, but that's just my opinion. It was a boring 25 minutes later that class finally ended and we were dismissed with instructions to read the next chapter and do the quiz at the end of the chapter.

 

I met with Amy and Kazuo after a quick side trip to change my loaded diaper. The lunch had not agreed with me and a toxic sludge had filled the the diaper just as the bell rang. It took me a few minutes to get cleaned up from that and then changed into a fresh diaper.

 

The three of us discussed our plan for getting Kazuo and I out of the contract. Amy threw in a few ideas as well and we finally had it all worked out. We finally parted since she could not fly and had to catch the bus or be forced to walk home with her car at home and in need of a new transmission. She had helped a lot with the plan but she was very down about her love life.

 

Kazuo pointed out David to me as we took to the air. He was sitting out behind the school and looking miserable. Had I not had other things on my mind I might have gone and talked to him and maybe talked some sense into him. As it was Kazuo and I wanted to go get some together time in at the old amphitheater where we could play our music without being pestered by anyone.

 

The next day started out with good news. Elizabeth was out of the hospital with only a few lingering side effects. Kiara was on cloud nine to have her back in her arms again even though she was on crutches. Broken bones and a stroke caused by an allergic reaction had not stopped her. She would be returning to school in two days.

 

At school we all found out that the blond idiot had suffered a broken nose, a cracked neck and severe skull fracture from the punch. The next bit of good news was in the form of a 65 Shelby GT doing a burnout in the parking lot as I came in for a landing. Amy had gotten her project car fixed finally. That should cheer her up some and hopefully help her forget about David for a little while.

 

Classes went normally enough for the day with no unplanned problems aside from Kazuo and I having to change right after lunch. I swear those so called lunches should almost be considered biological warfare weapons. They never fail to leave Kazuo and I wearing toxic waste taped securely around our waists. After changing we all spent time playing music to relax a little. Amy was slowly picking up on the guitar.

 

It helped her forget about David a little bit. Things might improve a little though with them as she kept looking at him when he was not looking her way. He did the same thing and they both looked miserable. In a few days they were going to be back together I think. Then maybe she would be happy again. I hate seeing her so upset.

 

The day of the play finally came up five weeks later. It had been delayed due to a water break flooding out the stage and ruining several of the props while I was doing my part with the harp with Elizabeth and Amy watching me. The sprinkler system broke loose and soaked me completely along with Amy and Elizabeth. Kazuo was busy helping with Amy's problem by talking to David at the time while she watched for any problems with the sets.

 

I ran backstage soaked along with Amy as poor Elizabeth got drenched since she was on crutches still. By the time she got backstage she was dripping wet and looking miserable. I began changing out of my kimono and into some dry clothes when one of the other girls barged in on me and saw me in just a diaper and a bra. “Oops. Sorry about that. Cute diaper by the way. A good idea for the long play. Beats trying to get out of costume, running to the restroom then running back and getting the costume on again.”

 

“You can't exactly run in a tight kimono. These things were never designed for moving quickly in.” The girl laughed “I can just see you trying to run in that and almost falling from trying. Doesn't it feel weird wearing a diaper though?” “Not to me. I'm medically incontinent and have been my whole life so for me it is nothing new.” “So how long have you been back in diapers yourself?”

 

The girl stopped talking for a moment then finally replied. “About two months. Bladder damage from a drive by shooting. Got hit by a whole bunch of bullets when they thought I was someone else and shot me up pretty damned good. Takes some getting used to and it is still tough getting changed in the small stalls. Don't tell anyone though. I don't want everyone to know.”

 

you are not the only one here in school, besides me, that has to wear diapers. I know one other person really well that also wears diapers and he keeps it concealed pretty well too. A few know but they are quiet about it. It's more common than you might think so it's nothing to be ashamed of. You have a health issue and this is how you manage it. Simple as that.”

 

Elizabeth came around the corner with a backpack and stopped. “I hate to bother you Miriam, but can I borrow one of your spares. I forgot to bring any today since it was only supposed to be a half day for me. Doctors are telling me that the retraining of my body can begin about four weeks after the worst of the damage has finished healing.” The girl looked at Elizabeth in surprise and barely disguised lust.

 

I laughed. “She's engaged Marry and it's about time she came out. Her better half is Kazuo's sister so you're out of luck.” I finished changing then helped Elizabeth get changed as she was having difficulty with her right arm still. I looked over at Marry and then smiled and extended a hand to her. “Need help changing as well?” “Tempting offer but unless you want me to try to rape you I better pass on the offer.” I laughed and helped Elizabeth up off the floor as Kiara came looking for her.

 

The play was finally set to go after the water damage was fixed and the sets were cleaned up and repaired. The play went off without a hitch with Kiara changing me during a 30 minute break. Amy did great work in the sound booth running the lights and and sound system as well as keeping track of everything else involved in the play. She still had to force herself to focus since part of her mind was on David still.

 

At the end of the play she came out to congratulate me on a perfect performance. Halfway down the stairs she was ambushed by some big chested brunette girl that had been flirting with David and had not gotten together with him yet. “fucking bitch! Leave David alone! You lost him so leave him be or next time I'll fucking kill you!” Amy lay on the stairs in pain as her nose bled heavily. She was also holding her belly as I tried to get to her.

 

David beat me to her and shoved the brunette out of the way as roughly as he could. “Amy! Oh shit! Hang on! Someone call 911!” Amy was taken to a hospital and had the bleeding just barely stopped. David was by her side the entire time and refused to leave. She would have to spend the next three days in the hospital and the brunette was going to spend a few months in jail for her assault on a pregnant woman.

 

Kazuo and I stopped in the next day to visit Amy and she was bored with the television and asked us to sneak her out before she died of boredom. “They wont even let me out of bed to so much as go to the toilet.” I couldn't help but laugh at her predicament. “Well, now you know what it's like to have to wear diapers and use them for everything. Don't worry, when you get ready to leave we'll make sure they give you a large supply of them so you don't have to worry about running out. We can teach David how to change you as well.”

 

Kazuo laughed when she threw her pillow at me for teasing her. I laughed with her and handed her back her pillow. “I hope you leak in the middle of a large crowd while wearing tan pants.” I laughed at that curse and she stuck her tongue out at me then laughed some more. “They are not uncomfortable like I thought they would be. They just crinkle a bit loud when I move and don't absorb very fast.” “Hospital diapers suck honey. The ones we use are a better brand by far.

 

So how long do they want you to stay off your feet when you get out?” “Only for three days. Also, they did an ultrasound on me this morning and it looks like the baby is doing fine. Don't know the sex yet. A little early yet and it had it's back turned so no way to know yet.” We stayed and visited her for another hour before admitting we had to go and get our homework started.

 

We both had quite a bit of homework to get done, and not just school work. We ended up at Kazuo's place as his mother was gone for a few days visiting some relatives. We had the house to ourselves and made short work of our clothes once behind his shut bedroom door. Kiara came home and soon enough we could hear her and Elizabeth making some noise of their own. I almost felt sorry for his father being kept awake by the four of us.

 

The days seemed to flow by in a blur and all too soon Amy was showing off more than just a big belly. She had a good sized rock on her finger that David had given her. David was brought in on the plan so he would not screw it up when the time came. My mother introduced us to several people that she knew. All of them were members of her clan as she called it. All I know is that they were all weretigers and all of them had a part in the plan according to my mother.

 

Kazuo was seen less and less in public with me as part of the plan. With only three months to go until the fateful day we were to upset the plan of the yakuza I finally tested positive for being pregnant. Kazuo and I kept it quiet from all but those involved in the plan. Although it soon became hard to hide my growing belly. By the time the last play of the year came around I had to turn down a role in it due to my pregnancy.

 

Amy teased me in private about laying off the watermelon seeds and I threatened to put her back into diapers full time again. She upped the ante and called my bluff on that one. “I already have to wear them thanks to the little one pushing on my bladder all the time and making it almost impossible to get to a toilet in time to avoid wetting myself.” I laughed at her and agreed that it sucked having a little one giving you morning sickness constantly.

 

“I'm already wearing mediums now Amy. Pretty soon I'll have to go and start using large diapers thanks to this belly.” I have had to turn down the lead role in the play already even though it would be fun to do it, but I can't exactly wear a bathing suit for the big pool scene. I Elizabeth was not so busy catching up on her school work and doing extra credit she could do the role.”

 

The drama teacher finally walked up to me a week before the play and confronted me about the lead role. “I can't fit into the swim suit ma'am. I seem to have put on some weight over the last few months. The top will fit fine, but the bottom wont even come close and I would not look good in a bikini right now ma'am.”

 

“If it's about your need for diapers we can easily conceal that. We could switch you into a larger bottom or put a heavy pad in it. You know the lines perfectly and everyone loved you in that last play as the shrine maiden.” I sighed and looked around to make sure no one else was watching. With no one else but Amy around I lifted my shirt up all the way and showed her why I turned down the lead role.

 

“Wow! You're pregnant! How far along?” “Almost four months now. I have to keep it a secret for a few more weeks until certain things are taken care of then if it all works out I wont have to hide it anymore. Before you ask, it is Kazuo's and he is not skipping out on me. We are stuck in a nasty mess with some dangerous people and we have a very risky plan to get us out of a contract with them and make our lives our own and not theirs. I'll tell you all about it after the whole mess gets cleared up if I can. Right now, the fewer people that know, the better.”

 

She promised to keep it a secret but wanted to know what it was all about once the mess was sorted out. I promised to tell her what I could in due time. Elizabeth and Kiara helped keep everyone distracted with their own very public displays of affection. Numerous times they would kiss passionately before splitting to go to their individual classes. The rumors circulated madly around the school that the two of them were lesbians and they never denied it or confirmed it.

 

With so much attention focused on them it made it easier for me to hide my pregnancy until the last week of school when my big belly had gotten big enough to make concealing it impossible. I teased everyone who asked me who the father was. I told them it was either Kiara or Elizabeth but it might have been Santa Clause because we were having a mad passionate affair. For some reason no one believed me.

 

It made all of us in on the plan laugh about it. My secret of me wearing diapers was found out about as well but most people attributed the need for the diapers to my pregnancy with the baby pushing on my bladder. I never bothered to correct them. Amy missed graduation though as she went into labor the day before with her little one. She went through 17 hours of labor with her baby before having a little boy finally. She named him Thomas after her father.

 

She still wanted to be in on the plan so we all of us got together and worked her new little one into it as well. She was released from the hospital two days after the birth. David was there with her the entire time and refused to leave her side. He had surprised us all and continued to do so by refusing to leave her. His answer as to why was simple. “I love her and want her to be my wife. She has given me the most wonderful gift I could ever have and she is the one I want.”

 

Kazuo and I graduated with honors. Amy had her diploma delivered to her while she was in the hospital still since she could not attend the ceremony. Elizabeth and Kaira finally admitted what everyone knew. They came out and told everyone of their impending marriage in a few weeks. It was no shock about them being lesbians and in love, but their wedding announcement surprised a lot of folks.

 

At the end of the ceremony I had to have Elizabeth help me get changed out of my diaper as it was soaked almost to the leaking point. My big belly made changing difficult. I had the nurse help me at school since she was bound by the law to keep it all private. When she finished changing me it felt so much better to be in a dry diaper again I could have hugged her.

 

She laughed and helped me up off the floor since I had trouble getting up after being changed. Being pregnant took getting used to. Still, I would not give this child up and anyone trying to take my baby was going to be in for one hell of a fight from Kazuo and I. Kazuo loved the idea of being a father and promised to marry me when this mess was settled and we were free to live our own lives as we chose.

 

My mother helped to keep the plan on track by having her clan change medical records and hide documents the yakuza needed to make their filthy plan work. It was a difficult plan to keep concealed from the yakuza as they had people everywhere it seemed. If this plan failed or they got wind of something then it was going to get messy real fast.

 

Kazuo and I were nervous as can be when the day of the meeting finally came. The yakuzo showed up as did mom with her clan. Kazuo walked in from one end of the park as I came in from the other end with my mother. Amy was waiting at the meeting spot with little one in her arms and David by her side. It was dangerous but she refused to let us exclude her.

 

I stopped and and had to have my mother help change me out of a messy diaper while a yakuza man stood outside to make sure I did not try to escape. When we exited the restroom I spoke to him pollitely. “My apologies honorable sir for this delay. I had to have help changing and getting cleaned up. My diaper was a mess and smelled badly enough it would have disrupted the ceremony.” I lowered the front of my jeans after lifting up my very large shirt to reveal my big belly.

 

He looked surprised to see I was already pregnant and even more surprised to see me wearing a diaper. “I'm incontinent. Have been all my life sir.” We finally made our way to the ceremony and waited as Amy smiled at her little one in her arms as she breast fed him. I bowed formally as best I could to Amy. “It is good to see you Amy. Where is Kazuo hiding at these days?” “I'm not sure, but he said that he wanted to see the baby before he signed the adoption papers making David the legal father.”

 

A man stepped in between us and looked at Amy with a angry scowl. “What is this about?!” Amy gave him a dirty look and then replied back. “Fuck you mister! Mind your own damned business!” He backhanded her hard and I lost my cool instantly. I may be pregnant but he underestimated me. I broke his arm a half second later and then broke his other arm as well.

 

Amy was being held by David as the man lay on the ground in pain. I looked down at him and snarled at him. “You have no honor and the manners of a common thug. I can only hope my future husband has more honor than you do. I wont let a common thug be around my baby.” He tried to rise and My mother kicked him hard enough in the head to knock him out.

 

Another man came running to see what the commotion was about. “Your associate here was rude and showed no honor by slapping a woman who was nursing her baby while waiting to meet someone to discuss adoption of the baby. He said something rude to my mother so she kicked him to silence him.” The man shook his head and escorted us to a table to await the arrival of Kazuo who was running late thanks to Elizabeth and Kiara delaying the process by arguing with him about him outing them as lesbians to his mother.

 

It took Kazuo a few minutes to settle the argument and send the two of them walking off pissed off. Everything was going perfectly as the two girls kissed each other near the exit as a sign that it was all going good still. The contract was in serious danger now as more information was revealed at each delay until Kazuo finally made it to the table only to be confronted by Amy and David.

 

The man in charge of everything was mad as hell about Kazuo having gotten Amy pregnant and then refusing to admit the child was his despite a DNA test. We had of course faked all the records as part of the plan. He signed the papers with a scowl on his face as was planned. “It is done. The brat is your responsibility now and I want nothing more to do with it.”

 

Amy and David walked off as the men looked at Kazuo with shock that he had fathered a child and was so disrespectful about it. I could have laughed at the look on their faces. It was priceless. Finally we had everything settled and got on with the ceremony. We reviewed the contract and I excused myself politely for a moment to stretch. I leaned way back and made damned sure they saw my pregnant belly.

 

“Mom. Can you help me get the openings undone again. The damned things keep sticking on me. She pulled on the strings on my shirt then pulled my wing openings all the way open while they all watched in confusion for a moment. I pushed my wings out into plain sight and fanned them out all the way before folding them back against my back more comfortably.

 

The head of the yakuza gathered looked on in shock at seeing my huge wings which he had been notified of. I leaned back over the table to look at the contract again when he spoke up loudly. “STOP! Kazuo, before we go further are there any secrets we need to know as well?” “Just that my wings are feeling cramped is all.” “What?!”

 

Kazuo showed his wings he had been keeping hidden as well and the man was pissed off big time. “And what other secrets have you kept from us?” “I keep my wings concealed a lot of times so that those who dislike avians will not cause me problems. I am also incontinent as well and just like Miriam, I have been my entire life. Anything else you want to know before we review this contract?”

 

The man turned to me and looked with contempt at me. You kept your wings a secret. You kept your need for diapers a secret. You did not tell anyone you are pregnant. WHY?” “Simple, to get out of a slave contract and have my own life. To marry the man I love dearly and to raise our children how we see fit and not give them away the moment they are born. This contract is barely legal slavery and it is now null and void since I am pregnant.”

 

“Your contract is not a slavery contract! I do not write those contracts. I have a copy of the contract as well to make sure there have been no changes.” “The contract on the table here is not one I or Kazuo will ever sign. Trying to force us to will get very bloody very fast.” Several huge tigers walked up to the meeting place at that point and the men all turned pale and pointed guns at them.

 

I laughed. Those wont do anything to them except make them mad. The man with the contract in his hand almost screamed as my mother changed to her half tiger form in front of him. “Meet my clan. We will fight to keep one of our family free and it will get ugly so perhaps we could just dismiss this contract and let us all leave in peace without any bloodshed.”

 

The man had no choice really but was curious so he picked up and began reading the contract on the table. The more he read the angrier he seemed to get. “This is not the contract! Who put my house seal on it? I do not deal in slavery! It is not profitable for business and so therefore this false contract is openly declared to be counterfeit! Whoever wrote this will die for this!”

 

“My father wrote the contract sir and when I found it I decided instantly to break it. I will not sign it.” He agreed by ripping the contract in half. “Your father is beyond my reach or he would be dead this instant. I would like to have you read the contract I came to discuss with you and Kazuo.” I read the contract with Kazuo right by my side. I never even noticed when he slipped an arm around my waist out of habit. The new contract was only one year of service to his company with generous benefits if I agreed to consider Kasuo as a suitor and possibly even an eventual husband. We would go to school at a very good engineering college and then go to work for him for a year to pay off the college cost.

 

“I know of your engineering ideas and my company needs bright people like the two of you. Kazuo is the father isn't he?” “Yes. I love him sir and I do want to marry him if he'll have me.” Before we could go any further with the talks my father was brought screaming and cursing at my mother to the table. “In light of this deceit played on all of us I offer you a peace offering as it were.”

 

My father screamed as we handed him over to the yakyuza boss. The man smiled at my mother and shook her hand politely. I agree to the peace and accept the gift you give me. He will be taken care of for his role in this deceit. I want no war with your clan. The last one cost us both too much and was not good for either of us. I think if you two will look over this contract and invite me to the wedding then this mess will be considered as settled.”

 

Kazuo and I agreed to look over the contract carefully but until we had an attorney look at it we would not seriously consider signing it. Everything had settled down quickly and without bloodshed except for the man I had injured for slapping Amy. Kazuo and I apologized for the deception with Amy and the delays we had staged to help get out of the contract my father had created.

 

Four weeks later we signed the new contract and announced our official engagement as well. We had a double ceremony with Elizabeth and Kiara getting married with us. Amy and David got married in Hawaii and honeymooned there as well with their little one. Amy ended up going into theater work as she loved the work. Her husband has been with her through all of the chaos of the theater life and has even given her another little boy who she named Richard. Kiara and Elizabeth stayed in town and went to a local college. They run the movie rental place over on fifth street and have adopted a little girl from India. Never could pronounce her name though. As for Kazuo and I, we are doing fine.

 

I had a little boy and we named him Mitch. Both of us are still in diapers and expecting baby number two in three months. We still work at the company designing rockets and aircraft and loving every second of it. We make good money and are a hit at the few performances we give with our music. Dad was never seen again and no loss in my opinion. Mom finally remarried a year ago to a guy in her clan and is happy with her new husband.

 

Life is very crazy and chaotic it seems but that's how it goes for us. We fly. Work at what we love, raise our family, and still find time for our music which we love playing even if just for each other. Let's face it, Life is very good for us. Can't wait to find out if the new one is a boy or a girl. We find out next week.

END

Thank you all for reading this weird little tale.
