Chapter 1

A young brunette paced herself as she strode along the border of Suna. It was very dark and that is when she is at her weakest. She had been walking for a few days and all the border police had just slown her down. Her teammates will be major annoyed. The girl sat and felt the sand. The hidden heat comforted her somehow. I will make it.

-- With Akeia & Terra --

"Where is she?" Akeia yelled. Patience was not one of her virtues.

"Relax. She sent me a message telepathically. She will be here in the morning, the sun will give her strength back and then she will be here faster than she would if she went now." Terra responded. She liked the feeling of leadership.

"Whatever. I going to hunt."

"Bring me back something!"

"Kay!"

-- Max --

After a rest I just felt so much better. It feels like the sun has given me its energy, while the moon does the opposite. Well that doesn't matter now I just need to get to that temple...NOW!! I can only get in when the sun or moon is at its brightest.

I see something. Is that the temple? It looks in pretty bad shape but I guess that's to keep people away.

I tread up the stairs carefully while I think with anxiety. I know so much about my teammates and they know about me but if that's the case why do I feel so nervous. Why do I feel like I'm meeting complete strangers. I am here.(3)

-- Akeia --

I just got back from my hunt. I drank the blood from two deer, a bird thing, and some annoying border patrol guy. (4) Plus I got Terra a moose because I could tell she was getting thirsty. When I got back though Terra looked like she was leaving.

"Max is here." she said.

"Then let's open the door!"

"It's not that simple. The moon or sun has to be at its brightest. Don't you remember when I let you in?"

"Oh right. It was a full moon. So how do we open it?"

"Follow me."

-- Terra --

"Follow me."

I took her to the temple's opening. This door has a long history with this temple. There is a certain way to open it and only certain people can open it. Like me or Akeia because of our shadow powers.

"Akeia can you fill in that design with your shadow? Just snake it through."

"I'll try." Akeia said. She wasn't too confident.

"I'll fill in this one.

-- Akeia --

Terra took me to the door of the temple and said to fill it with my shadow. It didn't seem to hard, but I usually use my shadow to kill not to make some design. And this design was intricate. A repeating floral frame with the shadow goddess inside. But I'll try.

I felt my shadow coming out of my hand. My demon knew what to do so it wasn't hard but Terra looked like she had some difficulty. She moved her hand like she was tracing the door with her hand but it was shaking.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

"Of course. This is just a bit tiring. It drains energy but, you can't really tell can you?" she trying not to be harsh.

"Oh... Yea...Ok."

"It's fine, don't worry about me. Besides Max is here. "

-- Max --

I walked up the stairs of the temple and pulled the door open. All I could see was darkness. I subconsciously walked through the fog, my hands reaching out feeling the walls. Then I saw light, and my teammates. I smiled when I saw them.

"Hello." I said smiling even bigger.

1. The girls can speak to each other with they minds but Terra and Max use it the best.

2. I don't know if I should have demons talk in this.

3. Terra and Akeia live in a shadow world which you can go to through the a shadow temple.

4. Terra and Akeia can leave and come back at any time

I'm sorry if my story is confusing right now. In one or two chapters things will clear up. Plus Naruto and the gang with come in. :)

P.S. I will try to make my chapters longer. I try to aim for a thousand words but it is hard for me. So that's why sometimes it's 'I paced myself along the border' instead of 'I walked along Suna's border'.

Please review. And please don't vote for pairings yet !!
