Chapter 1: The Dream and Beginning

"Is this the best that you can do Setsuna-sempai?" laughed Tsukuyomi, jumping away from her.

"No it's not!" Sakurazaki Setsuna unleashed an attack, "Hyakka Ryoran"

Hundreds of flowers flew around Tsukuyomi, but she evaded each one.

"Come on Setsuna-sempai, I know that you can do better." Tsukuyomi's eyes seemed to glow, "You can't beat me when you're still a human."

Setsuna's hand shook in fear.

"Setsuna-sempai you can't beat me in that form." Tsukuyomi stepped forward.

Setsuna shook more and backed away "S-Stop it!"

"Do you wish to become stronger? Strong enough to control your demon form?" a voice asked, "If that is your wish, I shall grant it."

"Gah!" Setsuna shot up from her bed in sweat. After looking around, she calmed down a bit. "It's just a dream…just a dream…"

'You can't beat me when you're still a human.' Tsukuyomi's cold voice rang in her mind.

Setsuna grabbed her sword and walked out of the room. It was around two in the morning, so it was still dark out.

'Damn that Tsukuyomi…why now?' Setsuna pulled out her sword and decided to practice, 'But whose voice was that? It didn't sound like anyone I know…'

"When will you answer my question Sakurazaki Setsuna?" the same voice rang in the air.

"Wh-Who's there?!"

"Answer my question and I will answer yours."

"…I…I don't want help!"

"If that is so then show me…show me who you really are."

"I…I…can't…"

Silence was in the air until the voice decided to break the ice.

"Sakurazaki Setsuna you are never honest with yourself but wish to become stronger is this correct?"

"...Yes."

"Leave your pactio card and come to the river below. I will be waiting."

Setsuna hesitated. Was she going to trust this voice that could be nothing but an illusion? Shaking her head, she dug out her pactio card and left it on her bed, leaving soon after. She looked back sadly, whispering 'I'm sorry' before she jumped down from the air ship they were on.

"Sakurazaki Setsuna I presume?" a boy about her age with black hair and blue eyes walked over to her.

"Are you the one that told me to come here?" Setsuna stared at him suspiciously.

"What if I am?"

Setsuna narrowed her eyes, "What can you do to help me with my demon half?"

"Train." he raised his hand into the air and darkness surrounded them.

Setsuna opened her eyes and noticed that they were in a different place.

"Where am…?" Setsuna looked around and saw the boy sitting on top of a rock.

"This is my personal world that no one can find or enter." he hopped off the rock, "Don't worry about your friends since they won't notice you're gone. Not until four years pass."

"Four years?!" Setsuna was surprised.

Kyo: Sorry if it's short right now! I'll try to make the next chapter longer! Anyways hope that you please read and review!

Konoka: What are gonna do to Set-chan?!

Kyo: Nothin' -whistles innocently-

Konoka: Noooo! You're gonna kill her! Set-chan!

Kyo: I won't, but I can't make any promises….anyways here's a short preview!

Preview:

"What exactly is this training and how will it help me?"

"Quit with the questions 'cause what you're askin' me is not important." Kaito scratched his head, "Will you accept the training?"

Setsuna stood there for a moment before answering, "Yes. I accept."

"Good. Now for the conditions. Normally no one could handle this type of training, but you are an exception. Why you wonder? Because you're a hanyo that's been through hell and back if you know what I mean." Kaito smirked at the surprised expression on Setsuna's face, "Now I must warn you that this training alone can kill you, even after you've mastered what I'm about to teach you can still bring you to death."

"In other words…I can still die if I use whatever you're going to teach me?"
