*Sneaks in and hope nobody notices me. I take one step.*
(Misael) Took you long enough.
GAH! *jumps about 2ft into the air*
(Yuma) Seriously, Blaze! How long does it take? I mean, I know I procrastinate, but c'mon! Pretty sure it's been over a year!
I'm sorry! I'm terrible with time!
(Kotori) And I thought Yuma was bad...
Oh shut up! Look, I'm back now, see? Now will you all shut the f-
(Haruto) *opens door* ...Kaito? Get in here!
(Kaito) *from another room* Why?
(Haruto) She's back!
(Kaito) *comes running down the hallway and stops at the open door* Oh wow. The impossible IS possible.
You guys are mean! T_T
Prologue: A New Threat
Earth. As beautiful as it is old. This was one of the few views she had been able to look at since her banishment. She looked down on the world with a void, emotionless expression. So many people, and so many fools amongst them. Yet, all of them had one thing in common; they had no idea she existed, meaning not a single one of them knew of the massive threat she posed. She had the power to erase them all from existence, as if they never were alive to begin with. At least, she had the power once. She would do anything to get it back. Absolutely anything. She'd sell her soul to the Devil himself if she could just to get one single taste of the power she craved so badly. With that power, she became a Goddess for a short while, with the power to return the world to a pristine state; a blank canvas, just waiting to be turned into a masterpiece. Her masterpiece. If only those two idiots hadn't sacrificed themselves to lock her away for 5000 years. Everything would be perfect, made in her image, and they wouldn't have had to be reborn, just to lock her away again. They could've simply died by her hand, slumbering peacefully for the rest of eternity. She couldn't wait for her prison sentence to be over, so she could finally have revenge! Retribution! Justice! Her sky blue eyes shone with realisation, positively gleaming with excitement.
After all, she would be free in about a week.
It was a bright Saturday morning, and Yuma, for once, was up and ready to start the day. He unfortunately had to cancel all plans to hang out with Vector and Alit, but it wasn't without reason. He had to meet a friend he hadn't seen for what seemed like millennia. The only problem was, his sister thought he was still going to visit Vector and Alit, so if she found them without him, suspicions would, of course, arise. He grabbed his bag and headed out the door, thankfully with no questions asked by his family. Their meeting point was park in the centre of the city. Luckily, nearly nobody was at the park in the morning, so it was a perfect opportunity for them to speak privately. As he approached the entrance to the park, he immediately spotted his friend's hair. It wasn't easily missed after all. It was bright red, spiky, and it reached her lower back. She turned around to face her friend, showing one emerald eye to him, her other eye covered by her scarlet locks. Her eye stared into his ruby ones, before they both smiled at each other, baring their teeth. They could tell that neither of them had changed, except for their clothing choices. Yuma wore his usual attire, whilst the girl wore a dark green T-shirt, a black leather jacket with matching fingerless gloves, along with dark blue, straight-legged trousers and red and black trainers*.
"Hey, Yuma. Lookin' good, I see."
"I could say the same to you, Inferno."
"Too bad we had to meet in these shitty circumstances, am I right?"
"Seriously? You're still swearing? Geez, you never change."
"Seriously? Still wearing the same colour combination? Geez, ya never change."
"Touche."
"So, anything interesting happen while I was gone?"
"Oh, you have no idea."
Yuma spent the rest of the morning explaining everything that had happened in the past two years, whilst Inferno listened patiently, with an impressed look on her face.
"Man, you've been busy, huh?"
"Yeah! I can't wait for you to meet everyone! Most of them are super nice!"
That made Inferno lose her calm demeanour for a moment and caused her to tense up.
"What do you mean, 'Meet everyone,'? You know I can barely tolerate people as it is!"
Yuma just sighed. He forgot all about Inferno's aversion to people and how much she disliked social interaction. He spent the rest of his time with her that day showing her around the city whilst trying to avoid anything that was outside her comfort zone. Soon, the sun was setting and it was time to say goodbye for the day. Yuma looked towards Inferno with a goofy grin spread across his face.
"This was fun, huh?"
"Yeah, I guess it was…" Inferno looked away for a moment before adding, "Too bad it won't be as much fun at school."
"Wait, what? You're actually going to start school here!?" Yuma gasped. This was very unlike Inferno.
"Don't get the wrong idea. I'm going to stay the fuck away from any other students, and it's only so I don't look suspicious during the week, so don't try to introduce me to anyone!" Inferno stated, her voice getting a bit louder. Yuma, however, just laughed and started to walk back home.
"I'll see you Monday then!"
"Yeah, I suppose ya will, ya dumbass!" Inferno hollered back and started to walk back to where she was staying, an expression of steel on her face. However, if you had a very, very good eye, you could see a small smile making an appearance.
So yeah. That just happened. If you don't know, this is a rewrite of a story I started a while back, but never got around to finishing. What I'm going to do is that I'm going to go over all of my characters and completely re-design them before continuing. This is an AU of the original anime, which I unfortunately don't own. I think that's about it for now...
See you later!
