Shadowed Fury

An: All right people. I know some of you were hoping for the next installment of Red Dawn, but sorry got a bit of writers block on that one. I noticed a common trend in some of the reviews people actually liked my OC Kyouran. So in honor of those reviewers I have decided to write Kyouran's story. So here it is. Don't own Naruto blah blah blah…. So onward with the story.

Prologue

Glittering red eyes were the only thing visible in the dark cave. The small sounds of the cave echoed softly. A baby's cry rang through the cave like the toll of the death bell. The scent of death wafted to the demon's nose. The crimson orbs vanished as pain washed through the figure. A woman dressed in gray walked forward. He recognized the midwife from his mate's clan. Something told his instincts that he should hate this woman with everything he had but he shoved his instinct down. She was the one taking care of his small family. She shoved the bundle none to gently into his arms making the baby squall in protest. A soft snarl escaped him at her treatment of the child. Then did it occur to the man what had happened. Leaning down he scented the baby softly. It was a girl, a daughter to the Shadow and Fox Clans of the Land of Fire. There was strength in her even at this young even he could tell. Her power would be through the roof if she could harness for the good of her precious people.

"Be warned Kitsune," the old woman rasped. "You and that abomination will be hunted for the death of the princess of the Shadow Clan."

"Touch my daughter and I'll kill you."

"Her name shall be Kyouran," she hissed. "She is the darkness of both clans."

"She is the bridge between the clans."

"She will bring down the fury of the clans on all those who she comes to love."

"Our daughter will be stronger than you think and protect those her come to mean the world to her."

The midwife scoffed at his words.

"She won't live to see the sunrise once the Shadow Clan discovers the loss of their princess."

He wanted to tear this woman to shreds but he dared not to. The old woman vanished which caused the baby to cry a bit as she was startled awake. Her eyes were already amethyst like her mother's eyes. His heart ached knowing that his beloved mate wouldn't be able to know and teach her daughter everything she knew. He brushed his thumb over the dark down on her head. Her ears were delicately pointed and on her right cheek was a single black slash mark. Her tail was black tipped in white. Leaning down her took in her scent. Once he was able to discern what she smelled like she smelled like honeysuckle and a twinge of a wind swept forest. Her power even for a newborn was very strong and beat steadily like the pulse of a heartbeat. A soft growling noise escaped her lips. He smiled softly down at the baby. Her name seemed to suit her.

"Don't listen to what that woman said my Little Fury. You will be great someday and you'll fight for your precious people."

A soft growl was the only sound that he could make out. He smiled softly as he nuzzled the top of his kit's head. She leaned into hi touches. He was sure when she assumed the guise of her fox side her ears would be twitching softly. The male fox rose gracefully knowing he would soon have to find food for his Little Fury. His gaze drifted back to where his mate had bore his daughter. He knew her clan would've taken her body back to their lands to be buried or burned. His heart was heavy as he retreated to the cave to find a place for his little family. He knew that his own clan wouldn't take her in because of her mixed breeding. Though, he couldn't completely ignore his duties to the fox clans of the Land of Fire as the humans called this stretch of land. Looking down at his daughter he saw the strength and knew that even if he should fall protecting her she would be strong enough to carry on. With purposeful strides he left the cave to begin his journey on raising his daughter, his precious Little Fury. The road would be long and tiresome, but he would instill the code of honor that all demons and shinobi strived for.
