Okay. This Fanfic crosses over with xxxHOLiC but it is not the major component although it does start out that way in the prologue. So it has not been placed in the crossover section. Also I own nothing but Liliana and other possible OC's. Enjoy!
Prologue: The Shop
Liliana stood stunned in front of the woman dressed in a black dress with white moons on it. She did not know why she had entered the strange building in the first place. Two girls with strange colored hair, one blue and one pink danced together singing about a 'customer for their mistress' to her right while a young man in glasses stood to her left.
"You're wondering why you are here are you not?" The woman asks.
She nods.
"Well don't. It was inevitable that you would come. Nothing could prevent you from coming."
"Why?"
"Your future hinges on this very moment."
"How would you know that?" Liliana asks.
"It has been fated."
"But why?"
"You have a wish." The woman smiles.
"Everyone has some sort of wish. What has that got to do with it?"
"Everything. This is my shop. A wish granting shop."
"Really?"
"Yes. And your thinking you could ask for a different life with the one? Are you not?"
"How? I don't even know you."
"I can do it." She pauses. "The name is Yuko Ichihara."
"Seriously? You can?"
"Yes but I will require proper payment."
"What is the price?"
Yuko smiles. "It seems payment is something that will come with time if things go the way I think they will, but getting you there will be somewhat a hassle. So payment for getting you there will be your necklace." Yuko holds out her hand.
Liliana hands it to her somewhat reluctantly.
"Watanuki? Will you fetch her?"
"Yes." He leaves the room.
"So, what is your name?"
"Liliana Blackthorn."
"It is a pleasure to meet you. I am sure we will talk again after today. The ties have already formed."
Watanuki returns holding a bamboo pipe gilded in black silver and hands it to Yuko. Yuko opens it and something like a fury snake with cat like ears slithers out. It is all black aside from its snout and the tip of its tail which is white. The creature entwines itself on Yuko's arm.
"This is Kuroko. She is a special type of Pipe Fox Spirit. She is now yours and will guide you." The fox slithers onto her arm.
"Good luck" Yuko says eerily.
And Liliana's vision goes dark.
