The Serpent And The Butterfly

Prologue

Chouno "Papillon" Koushaku, also known as The Creator, sat up in his bed breathing heavily. Had he had another nightmare? Was it even a nightmare? Who knew? All Chouno could remember was that the alchemic warriors had thwarted his plans. More than once. "One day I will be a beautiful butterfly and escape this place!" Chouno smirked, then got out of bed and got dressed. When he was all ready for the day he thought to himself Today will be Kazuki Mutous requiem.

Meanwhile, Kazuki dashed out of his dormitory and headed to school. "This time I won't be late!" Tokiko Tsumura, Kazukis partner and somewhat boss stood high atop a telephone pole lurking down as Kazuki hurried by. "He may have grown in power, but his maturity hasn't improved at all." "Heh, got that right." Tokiko turned suddenly and jumped at the sight of Tokiko and Kazukis alchemic sensei Captain Bravo. "Captain Bravo S-sir!" Tokiko still looked stunned "where did you...?" "The art of surprise" Captain Bravo grinned, then looked serious again. "Does he know?" Tokiko shook her head reluctantly and replied. "Not yet, and the "Papillon" Mask Creator hasn't surfaced yet either.

The wind began to grow stronger and brisker, the clouds darkened and the daylight sky began to churn spiral ward. "Hm!?" Tokiko and Captain Bravo looked up and gasped in unison, only to see a giant funnel like hole in the sky. A serpent emerged and sent an ear splitting roar all around, the serpent then coiled up and there was a sudden flash of luminescence and a boy (or so it looked like) began to fall from the sky. The boy quickly snapped back into the real world and landed quietly on top of the schools north tower. "Hmm... so the others must not have made it through alive, either that or they haven't entered yet." Then, the boys' eyes caught site of Kazuki running out of the school, his eyes followed the alchemic warrior until they caught the glance of Tokiko and Captain Bravo. This oughtta be good, he smirked. There was another flash of light and the boy was now Tokiko. This newcomer was a shapeshifting homunculus and now Tokiko, Kazuki, and Captain Bravo had a new enemy besides the "Papillon" Mask Creator to worry about. The only difference was: this enemy was indeed a force to be reckoned with.
