Chapter 1: The Passing of 'it'
"King Enma, there is a package for you" a green ogre said as he knocked on the large doors.
"Bring it in" Enma's voice boomed as the door began to open. The ogre stepped through.
"King Enma, there are holes in the package..."
Enma looked up at the package in the ogre's hands. He had been waiting for it for three years, and it had finally come. "Set it on my desk."
"Hai." The ogre set it on the desk and left the room.
As soon as Enma couldn't see him anymore, he let an enormous smile grace his furry features. Quickly, he opened the package and looked at it's contents. Inside was a small silver and black animal, looking nothing more than a statue in a tight ball. He gently picked it up out of the box. When it didn't awaken, he frowned.
"Wake up!" He yelled, shaking it a little bit. Growling, he set it down and glared at it with his right hand holding up his head. He sighed before getting an idea. "KOENMAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!"
Somewhere on the other side of the castle, a little boy with an overly large hat cringed as the whole place shook.
Enma waited impatiently for his son to come to him, but after five minutes, he grew annoyed. Right when he was about to yell again, Koenma walked in.
"You called for me father?"
"Yes. Come in and close the door." Once that was done, He handed his son the animal. When it didn't wake up, he glared at it again. "Give that to Botan and tell her to give it to Genkai."
"Yes, father." Koenma went to leave but stopped short at his father's voice.
"Put it in this box when you do send it."
"Hai father." Koenma placed the animal back into the box and left the room to go back to his office. Once there he taped the opening shut and left the holes untouched. "BOTAN!"
A blue haired girl in a pink kimono appeared before him. "Yes, Koenma?" She asked curiously eyeing the box.
"Take this thing to Genkai." He passed her the box in which she caught and nodded before disappearing.
---With Botan---
She eyed the box curiously as she walked up the steps of the shrine, trying to look into the little holes. "What could it be...?"
Reaching the top she was greeted by an ice maiden with crimson eyes and blue-green hair walking to the kitchen with a tray of dishes.
"Hello Yukina!" Botan said happily, running up to her.
Yukina turned to see Botan and smiled. "Hello to you too. Have you came to see Genkai?" she asked curiously, looking at the box.
"Yes, is she here?"
"No, she just left a few minutes ago saying something about visiting a grave." Yukina said aprehensively. "What's in there?"
Botan shrugged. "I don't know, but it's for Genkai."
"Well, she should be back later, are you going to stay here and wait for her?"
"Yup! If you don't mind, that is. I'd like to see what's in here." Yukina giggled at Botan's expression of excitement and annoyance.
"I don't mind. Maybe we should set that in the dining room for when she arrives, ne?"
"Alright!" The two then began to talk as they sat down.
"What do you think is in there Botan?"
"I'm not sure Yukina... maybe some sort of artifact."
"But there are holes in the box. The thing inside must be breathing if they cut holes in it for oxygen."
"If it were alive I would have sensed movement by now. The thing hasn't moved at all, other than when the box tipped and it shifted."
"Okay. But I really want to know what's inside of it..."
"I do too... but we have to wait until Genkai gets back. Enma would have my head if he knew I opened it."
They both gave a sigh and continued brooding over what could be inside of the package.
It was raining by the time Genkai got back three hours later, the sun was gone from the sky, and the moon was high over head. She looked at the two talking women in the dining room and sat down right between them, startling them enough to jump back a ways.
"Oh, Genkai, your back" Botan said as she walked back to her seat and sat down.
"You startled us."
"I see that. Now what's that?"
"Oh, it's a package for you from Rekai." She handed the package over to Genkai who then began to open it.
Taking out the ball of fur, she had only one question. "What is it?"
"Ummm..." Looking closer and poking around at it, Botan replied, "I think...it's some sort of animal..."
The head moved up when Genkai set it down.
"A fox!"
To Be Continued...
Short story:
There once was an elephant that was on top of a parachute holding a machine gun and a sword strapped to his waist. On the ground were a bunch of squirrels with nuts, shooting the nuts out of their mouths like machine guns.
