The Naga and the…human?
Part 1:

People walked past each other on the sidewalks, humans and nagas. This was one of the hybrid cities, where humans, nekos, and nagas could all live in one place. The nagas and the humans made an agreement many years ago, because usually nagas would eat the humans but the humans would attack and kill of plenty of the nagas until they could agree on a compromise. The nagas protect the humans and in turn the humans help the nagas hunt for non-sentiments', plus allowing the nagas into the human school systems until they get too big, along with other gifts. Like crafting giant weapons and teaching the nagas how to use them, like bows and arrows, or spears. This has gone on for about one hundred years with no problems so far, even if the two races weren't very comfortable around each other. The nagas felt a primary instinct to eat the humans and the humans felt weird being so small. Most of the new generations had no clue about the old fights between the two races, or the humans knowing of nagas wanting to eat humans. In fact humans and nagas were friends like normal kids, until around high school. That's when the nagas start to get too big for the schools and just leave to live until they're old enough for a job, and when the humans start feeling uncomfortable around the giants and just tend to stop talking with them. And the nagas are okay with that because that's when they start wanting to eat them, but keep that a secret. In fact almost everyone does that, almost.

Lucas was finishing a science paper when he heard the bell ring, so he packed up his books and left Neva High School. He started off on his walk to get back home, he wasn't in a rush do to the fact his parents don't get back for another hour and if he's later than that they'd understand.
"High Schoolers" they both said constantly. It was a bit annoying but it at least let him hang out around town. He walked past the last building in the human block and reached the naga block, which was full of giant trees, just like the jungle but still had the road and sidewalk. It creeped him out a little but he kept walking, no use just standing around if he was creeped out. Another few steps and he heard a low growl; he instantly turned around to see nothing there. Another growl came from behind him, and again there was nothing when he turned. He took a few steps back before he started to walk faster forward to get the heck out of that block. But he didn't get far before he was snatched off his feet and forced into darkness. He struggled in his new prison, but it only took a second to recognize the soft, warm surface around him.
"Ha, Ha Julie, real funny" he said matter of factly. Then light was shown in for him to see a familiar pair of green eyes and light brown hair as Julie un-cupped her hands.
"Aw, how did you know it was me?" she said innocently
"No one else has the nerve to snatch the mayor's son off the sidewalk except for you, plus you're the only one I'll let do that" he said proudly. She just messed up his black hair and held her hand to her shoulder. Lucas sat down on her shoulder covered in an orange t-shirt (the humans insisted that they make the nagas clothes). Julie slithered out of her hiding spot in the trees and moved towards Lucas' house,
"You should have seen your face Lucas, you were so scared I thought you would pee yourself"
"Yah, yah Jules real funny. Comedy gold, just don't do that so often so I don't have to keep looking over my shoulder everyday when I come to your neighborhood." She did something like that anytime she can. Those two have been friends since they were in kindergarten, and even when Julie got too big for school he still hung out with her, mostly because he never saw her as a threat so he remained comfortable around her. Julie had the instinct that she should eat him ignored it, he was her best friend after all. They were both 17 and were always together after Lucas finished school, and in each other's lives. If one got sick one would always visit the sick one, even if that got the other sick too.
"So how was school?"
"Oh you know, the usual boring classes and teachers, how was your day?"
"Oh pretty good; I learned how to shoot a bow by my dad"
"Cool, my parents won't let me near the weapons, not after I 'lost' the revolver." A few years ago Lucas took his father's favorite revolver and had Julie hide it. After he stopped looking for it he began to carry it around strapped to his leg. Anything to defy his parents right?
"Yeah, can you still manage to sneak it into school?"
"Yeah, after that operation last year I got that metal thing in my leg so all I got to do is say that it's my medical problem and the scanner doesn't go over my leg"
"yeah sorry about that, but at least I know not to swing on a tree with you on my shoulder anymore"
"don't sweat it, it lets me take this to school without getting caught." He said before pulling up his right pant leg to show the gun. Then they continued to talk and go to Lucas' house.
A highlight of being the mayor's son is that Lucas' yard is big enough stand in. they were rich before his dad was the mayor so that was never a problem. Lucas lived on the fifth floor so Julie crouched down and took him off her shoulder and held her hand open to let him into his room through the window.
"Thanks for the lift"
"Your welcome"
"Well, I guess I'll see ya tomorrow Jules"
"Alright, bye little guy"
"I'M NOT LITTLE YOUR JUST HUGE!" he yelled at her but she was already gone. She always enjoyed picking at the touchy subjects.
