Author's Notes
DISCLAIMER:
Claymore, in all its elements, belongs to Norihiro Yagi
All the characters and story elements that are not part of the official Claymore storyline belong to me
Who am I?
I am kstefan88, 24 of age, from Germany. At the moment I am doing my "Abitur" (comparable to the A levels in Britain) in order to study Physics or Mechanical Engineering. I enjoy Manga, Claymore and One Piece the most, as well as Anime, taking endless walks and writing.
What is this going to be?
For about six months I have constantly been thinking about "what is going to happen after the Organization's fall?" In endless hours of thinking about all the possibilities I more and more got a picture of what I would like it to be like.
However, I don't like writing already existing characters that much so it was clear to me that I will make my very own characters to play the important roles. On that behalf I decided that, to properly introduce them, I will dedicate this story that you are about to read to them.
I am not going to alter the official storyline crucially. After the Organization's fall this work or the follow up story will with almost absolute certainty create an alternate universe.
Note: this is my first bigger work in the English language, so please be gentle. If you see something that hurts your eyes, however, feel free to tell me.
Status quo at the beginning:
Luciela's Era had ended with her awakening. Half of the warriors are dead. The strongest one remaining, Rafaela, got stripped off her number and had to go into hiding. Even though this scenario had been predicted by some, the Organization was not properly prepared for it. They were short on hands and stuffed all more or less capable warriors into the spots that were to fill.
One of them was number 40, Jacqueline. After she had been turned into a half-human, half-Yoma being her hair's color still remained raven. Therefore she was considered a failed experiment but still got a rank due to the lack of warriors.
During her jobs she grew stronger and gained abilities the Organization was not aware of. As time went by, however, she finally got the chance to prove what she really was capable of.
Anything else?
I plan on releasing one chapter every two or three weeks, but I am not going to rush anything here.
And now I hope that you'll enjoy it :)
