Hello! First story ever, so... just tell me if it sucks, okay? In this story, you won't see Sanzo-ikku for a long time. I'm just fed up with all this thing about Sanzo-ikku! Now, don't get me wrong, I AM a Sanzo-ikku fan and a BIG SANZO fan, but I believe that there are more characters in Saiyuki and I'm centered on Lirin. Why? Simply because it's different! Let's see what the kitten can do when things get awful! 'Shin no Tobira' means The Door of Death, btw!

Disclaimer: I don't own Saiyuki.Which sucks!



SHIN NO TOBIRA


Introduction-Old Stories


"It was a time of chaos when heaven and earth were as one…


…and humans and demons -the youkai- lived together in peace. The foundations of civilization and religion were raised and reinforced in this
land of Togenkyo…"

"'…the paradise known as Shangri-La', yeah, yeah. All this bullshit is old news. Anything new?''

"It became necessary for four heroes to travel…"

"…ah shut it! Aren't you bored hearing about this freaking, endless journey to the West? It's annoying! It's been fourteen years and they're still on the way! SO annoying!"

She was mad. The young, blond Kami was standing next to a pool of boiling water and she was mad. A throbbing vein appeared next to her mouth. The peaceful Heavens were perfect: no crime, no death, no unfair actions… the peaceful Heavens were boring.

Especially for her.

"Shangri-La has a million-lifetime history. Knowing only that incident from five hundred years ago with Son Goku is—at the least—shameful! I'm not saying it's not important, but…"

She exploded.

"THERE ARE FAR COOLER THINGS, DAMMIT!"

"Relax!" A male voice came from behind her.

"Okay, okay. All those aside, let's follow another group, 'k? A group which shall take us throughout the legends of Shangri-La."

"The only problem is that this group doesn't exist yet, isn't it?" the male voice again.

"That's right! So, we're gonna start the story from the very beginning! That's why it's totally pointless for you to wonder who we are or what we're talking about. What's REALLY going on, darlings, is something that started…"

"...Five thousand years ago!"


Okay! Small, I know, but this is just the introduction. My next chapters will be longer, I promise! If you didn't get one thing, it's allright! As to who is talking and what on earth they're talking about is to be revealed within the story! Just drop a line saying: 'Hey, I'm here and I'm waiting!" I promise this story won't dissapoint you! This intro WILL have some connection to the story, don't worry! (Hey, that ryhmes :P)

At any rate I BEG YOU ON THE KNEES, REVIEW!

Ja ne!

Greece out!
