A/N: Hey this is like my second naruto story. I am trying my hardest to do some better writing, so please no flames. This is just a prologue, so nothing really happens.

Prologue

Once upon a time, there was a princess, who lived in a marvelous city in the Land of Snow. But even though it was always winter there, she had never gotten to see the snow. She could only imagine what the snow was like.

One day, she escaped from the bodyguards her father had sent to protect her, and wandered out into the forest. She watched in wonder as the snow fell gently around her, marvelous in it's beauty.

She sat out and played in the snow for hours and hours, until the sun started to set. She figured it was time to go home, but she only had one problem. She was lost, and had no way of finding her way back home. The princess wandered for hours until the sky was dark, and no sun was showing.

Lost, cold, tired, and hungry, she curled up into a little ball, trying to keep herself warm. But before she was able to get too comfortable, a pack of wolves surrounded her. They were just about as hungry as she was, and she was about to be their next meal.

Just then, a pure white fox appeared out of nowhere, and chased off the wolves. The fox looked into the girl's eyes, and she was spellbound by their bright blue color. The fox closed it's eyes, and a bright glow seemed to surround it, blinding the girl. When she opened her eyes again, it was gone. The princess then realized that the fox that had saved her was a spirit in disguise called Byakko, the snow spirit.

The girl then stood up, and followed the fox's tracks out of the forest, until she came to a clearing. In the middle was a clear lake. She was puzzled by how the water didn't freeze despite how cold it was. When she looked into it, and upon her reflection, a marvelous white fox looked back at her, it's fur as white as the freshly fallen snow.

She ran back to where the fox had saved her life, and noticed her clothes in a pile from where she was sitting. She then looked down, and instead of hands and feet, she found claws and paws. She then disappeared from sight, to a place unknown.

But as always with a new Spirit, there is a darkness lurking within it, threatening to break free.
