How could I have left him to die?! Him and his damned pendant! Why'd he have to go and get himself killed!
"Stupid bat. . . ." mutters a lonely thief.
A silver-haired kitsune is punching and kicking the cave wall of his hide-out in anger, tears brimming at the edges of his amber eyes.
"Youko?" questions a quiet voice from behind him. "What's wrong? Where is Kuronue?" says the voice as he turns to it, showing a young, human woman with tired, green cat-like eyes, black hair and black cat ears, a small child with white hair and green eyes clinging to her, holding a bundle of green blankets.
"He won't be coming back. . . ." says the man, Youko.
"No! You're lying!" yells a young woman with golden-brown hair and violet eyes, holding a baby wrapped in black blankets, dark wings sticking out. "He isn't! He isn't dead! I refuse to believe it!" the woman screams at him, making the young boy, the baby, and the green bundle start crying. The woman with black hair quickly opens the blankets to reveal a baby with white hair, green eyes, and black fox ears.
"Shhh. . . . It's alright, Sakura. It's alright. Kohaku, come with me back to your room," says the woman as the infant starts calming down. "Yan Lin, come. Miriam doesn't like it when you yell." The other woman follows, though rather reluctantly.
"He can't be dead, can he? Can he, Kadma?" asks the woman with violet eyes, Yan Lin.
"I don't know, Yan Lin. I don't know," whispers the other woman, Kadma. When they reach the room, she walks over to two cradle-like plants and sets the infant, Sakura, down. Yan Lin does the same, but with her child, Miriam, and with an actual cradle. Kadma picks up another bundle, this time amber, and opens it to reveal another infant with black hair, but with amber eyes and black cat ears. This infant's a little bit fussy.
"Feeding time already, Toph?" Kadma smiles sadly at the child, Toph, before bringing out a bottle filled with honey and milk (A/N: don't ask.) and brings it to Toph's lips.
"May King Enma have mercy on his soul. . . ." whispers Yan Lin.
The boy, Kohaku, watches everything, memorizing what he sees. . . .

Forgive me, my child. Forgive me.
A woman is running, holding an infant to her chest. "There she is! They're near the edge!" Other women are running after her and her child.
The women catch up to her just as she reaches a high cliff over a small blizzard of clouds. "I'm sorry, my sweet child," she whispers to the child as she jumps off the ledge, still holding the child to her chest, tears in her eyes. "I'm sorry my sweet Solstice. . . " As they fall down, far down, into the dark abyss below, she whispers, "May King Enma have mercy on our souls. . . ."

How could he leave us?! How could Kurama let him die?!
A woman murmurs the name, "Kuronue. . . . ."
How could you leave me and our child?

They made it. I know they did.
A woman with white hair and light-blue eyes is holding an infant to her chest, standing in front of a grave, the grave of her best-friend and her daughter.
"Don't worry, Rin. They're still alive, I can feel it. How is Crystal?" A woman with blue hair and ice-blue eyes walks up, and nods towards the child in the other woman's, Rin, arms. Rin hands the other woman the child, Crystal, so she could see for herself. Ren notices how she smiles when she holds the child.
"You miss him, don't you, Hina? You're lover? The fire demon," asks Rin, straight to the point as always.
"Yes, but not as much as I miss my son. I wish I had been able to runaway like my sister, Eve," says the other woman, Hina.
"You can't have everything in life. . . ."
Or in death. . . . .

End Notes-thingy: Yeah, yeah, I know. It's short, but it's just the prologue. The story'll get exciting in the next chapter (hopefully). Okay, to help you figure it out, Kurama had two daughters and a son(the son and eldest daughter have no known heirs). Kuronue had a daughter(both Yan Lin and Kadma left with their children, because Yan Lin blamed Kuronue for the death of her lover). Hina, Hiei and Yukina's mother, had a sister name Eve who fell in love/had sexual intercourse with a fire dracomancer(humanoid dragon) and had a daughter whom she refused to give her up, even if it meant killing them both. And no, they're not dead. (well, the daughter isn't. not sure about the mother quite yet.) Hinata's best-friend was another Koorime by the name of Rin. Rin somehow found herself in the Ningenkai (human-world, for you HP freaksand yes, I'm one too. there's an interesting story about that phrase, but I'll save that for another chapter/day) and got pregnant with a human's baby. Because the father was a human, the child inherited all Koorime traits, blah blah blah. Read, review, relax. Flames will be used to roast marshmallows.
