Disclaimer: Okay time for some business talk as I like to call it thank you very much, okay so I am not exactly that formal or am I?
As you may now notice this 'Prologue' is actually supposed to be rated 'E' for everyone, but it will not be because I cannot seem to do that in this website still the rest of story will be rated 'M' please take note that not every chapter is meant to be rated 'M' just some for particular scenes.
Okay now, that was just one thing. Second, this story is written by me and a friend who shall not be named by her real name. Her name is not mentioned, because I do not think she owns an account and I will not give her name unless I have her permission, I do have her permission to post this story so do not think about flaming me perish the thought if it crosses your mind.
Just one problem though I cannot remember if I have tried posting this story yet. This story can be found in another website now I will not mention the website since I do not at all desire to get in trouble since the way I put it might sound as advertisement and I do not like to advertise for that reason. Yes if you desire to ignore this tidbit it is forgiven to do so.
Third thing this story is probably very different from any other Fushigi Yuugi fan story that has ever been written. Me and my friend know that we are not the owners of Fushigi Yuugi, but we have been working together to get about everything right and yes that means a lot of research has been done now that I think on it I am the only one that has done the research which I am quite good with so it's okay I still love my friend. The only thing that is quite helpful though is that I already know a lot of Chinese history considering that I am 10 Chinese when placed in a percentage status. Although that really doesn't matter, yeah just forget I said that it's not in your plate as a reader to care I think.
Okay well I think that is all I have to say for now; I just hope that you enjoy the story as much as we enjoyed writing it. Oh yeah and we are still writing it and I know I am crazy; not that that is any of your business. Just be sure to enjoy it, wow I hope I have modified it right this time, yes it might be silly but I like to do a lot of modifying it only feels right to me.
Once again my friend and I do not own Fushigi Yuugi and we do not get paid for our work. We only do this for fun just like about everyone else. We also think there should have been a continuation to the story, but sadly there was not. Anyways I'll stop talking now because this might turn out to be longer than the prologue. Remember though it is still a work in progress so do not think an ending will come so soon even if we have it pretty much figure out. I also have another story to take care of I am merely doing this to get my brain working I am having trouble with my other story, but again enough if enough.
[00 Prologue
It is said that time passes by very differently between the times inside a book and the time in the world outside of it. It is not for certain to some yet.
Still if this is indeed true and without using any of the very complicated math known to man it has already been nearly ten-hundred-thousand years since the death of the Suzaku no Miko or in other words the Princess of Suzaku.
It is said that Miaka Yuuki had lived a very happy life with her husband Taka or Tamahome as some may have called him, before the time of his rebirth. Only the closest of her friends and family of Miaka knew why Tamahome had a different name.
To some Taka was a mere rebirth or mirror of Tamahome with recovered and later to be fully restored memories, but to Miaka to her he was the same old Tamahome she had fallen in love with.
Nevertheless, he was not Tamahome, surely born in different places, because of the strong love between the two he was allowed to be in her world. Treated as individuals Taka and Tamahome they still had shared the same feelings, especially the love and bond they both held for Miaka Yuuki, which caused the two to fuse and become one. Then again many already knew that.
In another note, outside the book of "Shi Jin Ten Chi Sho" or also known as the book of "The Universe of the Four Gods" only merely ten years had passed since Miaka and Tamahome/Taka had forgotten about their old friends. Unexpectedly the memories simply banished as did the book.
As the memories banished so did the learnt lessons.
That is why it is said that one day while it was pouring outside Miaka was quite the restless one. She only having one thing in mind, knowing that the following day was their wedding anniversary she had forgotten to buy Taka an anniversary gift. Reluctantly at the nagging feeling she had Miaka disobeyed Taka and left to buy his wedding anniversary gift, but she still left a note behind, so that he shan't worry about her. If there was one thing she hated was making him worry.
By the time that Taka took notice of her note and that she was gone, the news was already being broadcasted of the mysterious death that had occurred while he had been taking his shower.
Forgive me for leaving on a storm like tonight's Taka, but you must understand and forgive me. Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary and I just couldn't let it pass, I had to go out to buy you a gift.
I promise I will be home soon.
♥Miaka always
Just as he read her left behind note and as he overheard the broadcast coming from the radio as well with the sinking feeling in his heart he knew Miaka she would not be coming home tonight or to him anymore. He felt as though his own heart had stopped beating along with hers.
It was foolish of her to leave in such weather, especially at night. Of course, then again no one predicted that she would die in such a horrible car incident. If only she would have listened to Taka that horrible accident she had, would have never happened.
Many years later many remember that night that Miaka died, but it was her death that was the mysterious part of all. When the medics had found her dead body and had finished examining her dead body, she was in perfect condition it looked as though she was merely in a deep sleep, but something about her was missing and it was irreplaceable. They had informed Taka that night that her death was indeed quite the mysterious one.
True no harm had come her way and she could very well be alive, but something in her was missing, which made her incomplete. Her ghost as some call it, which made her who she was, was simply gone. Everything about her was well and functioning, but she was in a coma that she would never return from.
Her body, all it came to be was an empty shell.
Everyone that loved and grew to love Miaka including Taka himself had taken the news of her death in a matter that nobody did not want to understand. All they did was let her go and prepared for her burial.Others simply let her go afterwards not allowing her to be a so distant memory, but Taka was not ready to let go. With a hard effort eventually he did let her go even if he did not like the fact that all she would be was simply a memory.
After Miaka Yuuki's burial, Taka decided to hide himself from the world slowly falling into a deep depression, and that's when it all began. Seconds began to pass, which later turned to hours. The hours turned to days. The days turned to weeks. The weeks began to pass turning into months, which later then turned into years.
After ten very long and lonely years Taka still could not take all of the loneliness that he carried according to his left behind will. Just then out of his new found nature, one night he found what he called the 'perfect' night. It reminded him so much of that night in which Miaka had died, in fact it had been ten years ago that day that she had died.
He went out on a walk and he took notice of a lone red star up in the partly clouded sky, once the clouds had cleared the lone star shone brighter through his eyes. He felt awkward taking the walk alone that he went back home and walked into the balcony of the lonely bedroom. He took notice that the star appeared to be the brightest when he had stepped onto the balcony as though he was somehow a lot closer to it. As he looked at it he took it as a single sign.
Taka finally did what many had expected him to do back ten years ago when she had died and did not want to permit her to be a mere memory. His death was not a surprise to everyone, well except those who knew of his 'real' past and had not forgotten while he himself had.
Although when his body was found lying on the balcony of his bedroom a strange phenomena had occurred. A strange symbol had begun to appear on his forehead. Out of every single body in the room only one person felt that he knew what the symbol truly meant.
When he was left alone with Taka's body on the balcony he kneeled down on his knees next to Taka's cold, but somehow still warm body. Trying to blink his tears away he reached his hand out to take Taka's fading hand into his own shaky hand.
"Now I understand why you have waited so long to pass on Taka I mean Tamahome," he whispered to Taka's lifeless body. He just couldn't withhold his tears anymore that he finally began to let them go, "Do whatever it takes to bring back my baby sister Miaka Tamahome," he continued whispering as he watched Taka's body fully disappear engulfed by the fiery red aura.
As Taka's body crossed over to the other world where Tamahome had come from and where Taka had once laid a new book appeared in his place.
Once he had recovered he picked up the book with shaky hands and read its title in a husky voice, "Crossover between the Four Gods."
