Heyyyy everyone!! Ok so here's what's going on. An idea for another story just popped into my head one day and whenever I try to update the one I have up now I get writers block because all I can think about it the new idea I have!! So I'm not putting my other one on hiatus or anything. I'm just going to be working on both at the same time. So if it seems like im not updating one for some time it's because brilliant ideas are spewing out of my brain for the other story. So I will now have two stories up for all you lovely people to read!! Well I hope you all like this new story! Enjoy!!
Family Life
Taro Higurashi met the love of his life just as he was building his business career. He was tall and handsome with his straight hair and bluish-gray eyes, generous, and quickly on his way to the top career wise. She was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen. She was slender, had thick wavy hair, full red lips, and milk chocolate eyes. She was kind and sincere. Her name was Kun-loon. They quickly fell in love and were married with the blessings of their parents.
Only a year after they were married was the couple blessed with beautiful twin girls. Kagome and Kikyo. The twins were always compared to porcelain dolls with their pale skin and ruby lips. The only difference between the two girls was that Kagome had her mothers wavy hair and her fathers blue-gray eyes while Kikyo inherited her fathers straight hair and her mothers chocolate eyes. Shortly after they were born, Taro's business took flight and became the number one manufacturer and seller of nano technology to businesses all over the world. He moved his family into a large mansion and made sure that his girls had the best professors come to their home to teach them. Not only did he make sure that they excelled in their studies but he also encouraged them to take part in extra curricular activities. Kagome decided to take up vocal lessons while Kikyo wanted to try art lessons.
When the girls hit their sixth birthday something awakened in them and Kun-loon realized that the spiritual blood that had laid dormant on her side for generations had finally awakened again. She contacted an old friend of her mothers to come train the girls in their powers. That's how Kaede came to live with them at the mansion. She trained them in archery, sword fighting, hand to hand combat, and in their priestess powers. By the time they were seven both girls could hit the bulls eye with an arrow, knew basic defense, and could somewhat erect a protective barrier around themselves.
This was also the year that their baby brother, Sota, was born. It was a happy time for everyone in the Higurashi household. That is, until Kun-loon was attacked by a demon on her way home from the play ground with Kagome, Kikyo, and Sota. The demon was very low class but he took them by surprise and Kun-loon was killed before the girls could erect a barrier to protect themselves. The demon was killed once it hit the barrier but they did not act in time to save their mother.
Ten Years Later
Kagome and Kikyo grew up into beautiful young women. Their bodies filled out beautifully and had the faces of angels. But this did not make them snobby like most heiresses they knew. They were devoted to their studies and extra curricular's. Kikyo was an accomplished artist. She had one of the many rooms in their house set up as her art studio which was filled with finished and in progress works. She hoped one day to have her art in museums all over the world right along side those of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. Kagome turned out to be one of the best singers of her time. She had the voice equivalent of the famous American singer Whitney Houston (and don't even say it's not possible because it is. Watch Oprah) and almost peed her herself when Ms. Houston herself made a special appearance at Kagome's 15th birthday party so they could sing a duet together. But she did not want to become a famous singer herself. Nor did she want to write her own songs. She was perfectly content with singing songs already out there just for fun. But her family insisted on being able to have CD's of her singing so her father turned one of the rooms in their mansion into a recording studio for her. She gave CD's to family members as long as they promised not to sell them. Sota was only ten years old and had everything that he could dream of. But it did not make him spoiled. He didn't take anything for granted because he knew all too well that it could be ripped away from him someday and he didn't want that to happen again.
They were to take over their father's company when he retired. Kagome and Kikyo agreed to this as long as they got to have their own lives as well. Kikyo wanted to become a famous artist. She wanted to be known for her talent, not because her daddy was rich. Kagome was giving vocal lessons to children younger and the same age as her and she ultimately wanted to become a chorus and vocal teacher. Sota…well he was just content with being a ten-year-old boy right now.
But not all was well in their lives. Ever since Kun-loon died, Taro sheltered his children, in fear of something terrible happening to them. Kikyo resented demons after seeing her mother killed by one. The only one she could tolerate was Shippo, a six-year-old fox demon Taro took into their home when he found the boy wandering the streets. His family had been killed in a terrible fire. Shippo instantly took a liking to Kagome and rarely left her side. She was planning on legally adopting him once she turned eighteen. But Kagome longed for the world outside the walls of her home. Sota just wanted to see him family happy. This is how they came to be sitting in their fathers study with determination on their faces.
"Dad…we want to go to public school."
