Chapter 1: a knock at the door

Ren sat in the Library of Tao Manor. He and his sister had moved back soon after the Shaman Tournament finished, and of course, Yoh won. The two have kept contact with the rest of the group and visited them at times but Ren has had to take on a lot for the Tao family since his father let him take over the family(I dunno when that worked out so let's just go with then on).Jun, Himself and the servants were the only one's in the house since Ren had decided to give his mother, father and grandfather a break an gave them an all expenses paid vacation and they were due to return the following day. Everyone else was asleep, though Jun would keep coming down and attempting to pursue Ren to sleep, and every time he would tell her he was not tired. He was sitting reading a book with his reading glasses on, the lamp on the side table on and a cup of green tea sitting on the table. It' was raining outside and every now and then you heard thunder from outside. Just then Jun came then to the room, Ren looked up and sighed,

"Jun I don't want to go to bed I'm not tired," Ren said before she could say anything,

"I know I'm just worried about you, with all the extra work that's been piled on you since our father Handed the leadership of hte family to you and you've not been sleeping a lot and it's not good for you," Jun said,

"Yeh, I'll be up soon," Ren lied, Jun just left the room and walked up stairs. Ren sighed again rubbing the top of his nose, shaking his head slightly, 'Maybe I should get some more sleep,' Ren thought and closed the book on his lap and stood up. He picked up the green tea and lugged it down (Ow that would burn your thou) then set it on the side table on top of the book. Then turned out the light.

He went though to the main hall and started to walk up the stairs when there was a loud knock at the door. Ren stopped and turn to look at the door,

"What the…" Ren started, and then the knock came again," OK, OK I'M COMING!" he said going back down the stairs. He walked up to the large front door's and opened them and a soaking wet hand immediately grabbed onto his chest, Ren was shocked,

"Please…help me," said a quiet female voice in front of him, it was difficult to hear over the battering of the rain on the ground though. He looked down to see a girl of about 16 kneeling on he ground in front of him, he couldn't see her face yet but she had long raven black hair and her white cloths were torn and dirty, and she was in pretty bad shape too. Ren knelt down in front of her and looked at her face. There was a verity of cuts scattered over her face, she was quite pale and she had deep piercing orange eyes with a cat likeness to them, her ears were faintly pointy too," Please help me…there coming for me," she said again,

"Who? Who's coming for you?" Ren asked, searching the horizon over the top of her head,

"Please…help me… I'll do anything… just help me," She whispered, a hint of fear in her quiet voice. Ren kept searching over her head but saw no one or nothing, he sighed,

'Father's gonna kill me for this,' Ren thought, "Ok, I'll help you," Ren said helping the girl up and inside, closing the door behind them she looked at him gratefully,

"Th-Thank you," She said before passing out in his arms, her head resting on his shoulder. He rose a hand and placed it on the back of her head, stroking it slightly,

"It's ok," he said to the girl, knowing she can't hear him, "You can give me some answers in the morning."
