Prologue

A Stab in the Dark

Neko: This is my newest Fanfic. Yeah me! Anyhow, this is probably one of my oldest stories I've been writing. It's already 40 pages long in my notebook… geez. So, this is book #4, and there are 2 original characters: Tanya Torsson, and Ayume Pike. It's mainly about Tanya. These two are introduced in this very short chapter. On with the chappie!

Tanya Torsson's blue eyes watched Manfred from the dark. "You know, it would be easier if I just-"

Manfred glared at her. "I want to do this my way!"

"Your ways slow!"

"So?"

Manfred's grandfather, Ezekiel Bloor, snapped at Manfred,"Let your girlfriend help you."

Manfred grumbled, but told Tanya,"Whatever."

Tanya stared hard at the bones in front of her, and they soon stared to align themselves. Tanya was telekinetic, and could move things with her mind.

Ezekiel smiled. "She's so much more helpful then your other girlfriend, Zelda."

Manfred growled. "She was never my girlfriend!"

Tanya looked at the two," You're getting hit from all sides today aren't you?"

"Yes."

There was a sudden knock on the door that made the three jump.

"Tanya, can you get that?" Ezekiel asked.

Tanya shrugged. She walked around the table, her blond hair swinging. She opened the door to find Charlie's Aunts, and Ayume.

"Well if it isn't Ayume Pike. I haven't seen any on your family since Asa flunked 4th year."

Ayume raised her black eyebrows, "That would be why, sir."

Tanya glanced at Ayume's shaking stature. "Ayume, are you sure your all right? You look like your going to transform, and we don't need a white dragon in the room right now," Tanya said.

Ayume shook her head. "I all ways get like this when I come here. The fumes drain my energy."

One of the Aunts snapped, "If you girls are done talking, we need to do this now."

Tanya shrugged. "Whenever you're ready, I'm game."

The group watched as the bones began to glow when the lightning split the sky. Suddenly, Tanya cried out in pain, as the lighting bolt hit the generator. Ayume was curled in a ball on the ground, silently suffering.

Then, to top it off, Manfred sneezed.

Tanya leaned against the wall, drenched in cold sweat. "What was that? I just got a premonition that this was a mistake! What's going on?"

Ayume sat up. "I just felt like my soul was being forced from my body! What was that all about?"

Manfred offered Tanya, and then Ayume hands, helping the two girls up. "I think it had something to do with Borlath," he said.

Tanya rubbed the back of her head, "Whatever it was it isn't good news."

Ayume nodded, and the girls looked out the window, both thinking in there heads this isn't good for anyone.

Neko: As you can tell, my writings improved. I've gotten a load better. Anyway, I'll have chapter 1 up sometime. I'm working on chapter 2 of Unwanted Flames, and Chapter 1 of my newest story, The Dark Flame, which is an Avatar: The last Air bender fic.

Afterthoughts(New): Am I the only one who noticed all my titles are violent?
