Konnichiwa, minna-san! I'm back again. I've gotten interested in Fairy Tail and I totally recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it. Don't let the name fool you, it's not about princesses and pixies. Anyways! I have decided to start another fanfic (again). I'm still contemplating what to do for the next chapters of the other stories I'm (supposed to be) working on. Any ideas? Bring it on!
Summary: What if the Kyuubi was actually the result of a Dark Guild experiment?
Warning: Mild gore
The Kyuubi Incident
Prologue
The Birth of Kyuubi
Some people say Dark Guild mages are evil. Some say they're stupid. Some say they're weak. But no event or any other large-scale world-domination plot could compare to the sheer miscalculation of this spectacularly stupid experiment being performed by a Dark Guild known as Black Cougar.
In a dark, circular basement room, eerie red-orange flames licked at the blackened wicks and creamy wax of the melting candles left dripping in the iron candle-holders placed around the room. Dark shadows were cast upon the dour grey color of the stone walls, some moving to-and-fro as multiple figures in dark-purple cloaks chanted in an ancient tongue and waved their limbs about. They flicked their wrists in sync and thin red tendrils of silky light burst from their palms. The tendrils were absorbed into the pulsing crimson lacryma crystal in the center of their little circle. They clapped their hands and spun on their heels and clapped, clapped again. They fed the crystal little bursts of their magic energy, once before they danced, spun, and wheeled, and twice after they circled and chanted. They repeated this cycle, again and again, for the next ten minutes. Then they stopped.
The crystal glowed a deep, brilliant scarlet color, turning the room into a fine shade of grey-crimson. Red-orange-yellow flames spewed and fumed from the crystal. A delicate ring of blue-white fire spun at the base of the crystal.
One of the mages took a solid crystal of Etherion residue from the confines of his cloak. He heated up the crystal with a little flame, before tossing it into the raging red mass of flames spouting from the lacryma crystal. The flames glowed a heated white color. The mages gathered around, eager to witness their creation with their own eyes. The flames leaped and roared, a bubbling mass of energy hissed from the surface of the crystal. Then it all went downhill.
The crystal turned as black of charcoal, and its flames spun out of control. A hateful, malicious presence filled the air, making the mages shudder from the sheer power of the killer intent. The lacryma crystal exploded into thousands of little shards, but the flames swallowed them greedily. The mages were forced to backpedal quickly as the fire spun into an uncontrollable storm. It roared. A thunderous boom split the air. Two demonic red eyes opened in the chaotic mass of fiery flame and crystal. The mages shivered as a massive head and snout, complete with a malevolent, shit-eating grin on a long maw, formed above the flames. It cackled.
Nine thick tendrils of red energy burst from the stormy flames, which quickly solidified into nine, blood-red tails. The grinning head opened its jaws and swallowed the remaining flames, forming the rest of the gigantic body. A huge, fox-like creature towered above the terrified mages. The room had long-since crumbled like wet sand.
"Foolish humans," it rumbled, lifting a paw into the air. The mages scrambled to get out of the way, but the paw smashed down on a few of them, crushing their bodies like twigs.
It threw its head back and roared at the brilliant white moon hanging above in the dark night sky. It slapped its tails to the ground, making the earth quake and rumble. It dipped its head close to the ground, its long rough tongue lolling out and licking the bloody corpses. With its great maw, it gathered the cadavers in its mouth and crunched them, blood bursting from the sides of his jaws. The remaining mages were petrified at the sight of their former comrades being devoured before them.
The great red fox roared again at the moon, slammed its nine tails against the ground, and vanished into a little burst of light. One of the survivors fell to his knees, shivering.
"What have we done? What have we done?" he gasped, his fingers clawing at the ruins of the room.
But no one answered.
Um, just a prologue. I kind of have in mind what the story will initially be about.
Kyuubi – Nine-Tails. It does not fully translate into "Nine-Tailed Demon Fox" unless you add "kitsune" at the end. So "Nine-Tailed Demon Fox" would be Kyuubi no Kitsune (Fox of Nine Tails).
I hope the prologue was interesting. I would like to hear your comments and criticisms (flames make me angry, but constructive advice will work).
Thank you for reading, and please review. I am new to Fairy Tail.
