Chapter 1
Who am I
Ok so this is a new story I've been working on. It's been a joint project with Tsukiko the Inu-Goddess and I found it quite an enjoyable project. So without further ado here's chapter 1 of the story. ENJOY
December 7 1940
The sounds of gun fire fill the streets of New York as a young girl runs from the hail of bullets. She keeps repeating the same few lines in her head.
My name is Kotone Christopher I'm 12 years old. My hair is violet and by eyes are blue. I'm an orphan and all I have of my parents are a locket with their photo. I don't know who these people are but they want me dead. Is it because of my parents or because I'm different from everyone else? I don't know all I know is I must survive
She turns the corner and is struck by a bulletin the arm.
" Damn it who the hell are you people!" she yells.
2 hours earlier
A car pulled up to the orphanage on 21st street. 4 men got out of the car and walked in side.
"We're looking for a girl with pointy ears" one of them said.
"Aaa you must mean Kotone, follow me" Sarah said from behind the desk said.
He started to walk up the stairs.
"She is a good girl, but she can handle herself in a fight. Most people call her elf but she can act more like a demon when she gets mad." she said.
"That's why we're here because she is a demon" the lead man said" she is a danger to the world."
"Kotone no she might be a little hotheaded but she's no demon she's kind and sweet but don't get her mad." She said( DAMIT are these people really from the order I so I need to be careful)
They walked towards a door and he opened it. The men stepped in and looked around.
"Kotone you have visitors" she yelled.
"Who are they" said Kotone.
"Some men who say you are a demon..." she said but was cut off mid sentence.
"A demon huh well do I look like a demon. " she said.
She came out of the shadows of the room and stood in front of the men.
"Do I look like a demon to you?" she asked.
The reply she got was the brandishing of firearms.
"What are you doing this is an orphanage not a target range!"yelled Sarah
"They really are here to try to kill me they think I'm a demon." said Kotone
"By the order..." he was cut off mid sentence by a knee in face.
"Blah blah blah like I said before I'm no demon, but when you pull a gun on me your asking for it."she said.
The others start shooting at her and she takes off running towards the stairs. One man turns and shoots but hits something he was not aiming for. Kotone stops at the top of the stairs.
"SARAH!" she yells and runs toward the falling woman don't you dare die" she said.
"...r...u...n... no...w" she croaked.
She laid her down. Now she was pissed they come and try to kill her and end up killing Sarah.
"ARG IM GOING TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF Y'ALL" she yells.
She runs and jumps on the side of the wall and pushes off and aims for one of the men and lands a kick square on the face. He is sent flying back. The others turn and shoot. They miss by a long shot. She punches and hits the man in the temple he is sent flying down the stairs. The other points and shoots but misses as well she brakes his arm and punches him in the throat. She turns and see Sarah dead but smiling. She knew what her last thoughts must have been. That's the Kotone i know never takes any shit. She turns and runs down the steps.
Preset time
"I'll ask once more WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE!"she yelled.
"We are the Order of Magdialin." said a lady dressed in black " We exercise demons, and you are a demon."
"The hell I am I don't know anything about you or your Order, but I'm no demon." she yelled.
Just as she said that the volley of bullets started once more. She took of running towards the people and dogeing the hail of fire. She ran up to about 5 feet and jumped high and came down on top of one of the men with a gun.
"You all are really starting to piss me off." yelled Kotone.
Someone charged her and she dodges it and follows by a swift uppercut. The man is sent flying back.
"The only thing I want to do is find out who were my parents!" she yells.
"Demons do not have parents!" the lady dressed in black yells.
"I do have parents!" she yells as she points to the locket.
The men surround her and gets ready to shoot. She runs up to one side and knocks the gun out of his hand she crouches and kicks almost straight up and balances on her hands. She pushes up and knees someone in the face. He is knocked out in an instant. When she lands she takes off running.
"Dam it she got away!" said the lady dressed in black.
( 10 minutes latter)
Kotone hides on a fire escape latter outside of an apartment. She pulls out a pocket knife and cuts off the tail of her shirt and ties it around the gun shot wound.
"It'll have to do for now." she said " first I need to find out about these people I'm being hunted by and why they were dressed like my mom."
She freezes as a man with a gun comes running down the ally way. He turns on a torch and shines it around below.
"Dam it I hope he doesn't see my blood."she thought.
He walks right under her and over the small pool of blood and works his way down the ally way.
"That was close..." she said
*PING*
A bullet hit the railing behind her and ricochet off.
"She's down here" he yelled followed by 2 more shots.
Dammit he must have saw the blood but made it look like he did dent.
She jumped down and took off running. Just as she turned the corner she was in front of a man in blue holding a gun. She roundhouse kicked him and grabbed the gun and took off running once more.
"Hop in"yelled a man in a car. She ran for it and dove in.
