The dark
A veil hiding truth…
A cape for the shadows…
A crown for the unrighteous…
The dark is all I see
Why am I here?
What's my Purpose being locked here?
How old am I now? How long have I been here?
Where is here?
My life had been taken away by some cage, a bloody prison. I had only the cloth on my back and the chains on my legs, arms and the collar at my neck.
Coughing slightly I looked up, through my bangs, my hidden life… a sorrowful one, no pathetic. Harnessing my energy to keep my life on a line, maybe I should just end it… I shouldn't say that. Coughing harder this time I start to choke. My hands reach for my throat, scratching at it, praying for an end. My suffering continues, the collar squeezing harder leaving more burns on my neck as blood oozes down. The blood collects onto my garments, adding it to my previous stains, "S-top," my voice hoarse calling to my captors, "stop..." the collar tightened and my anger flared slightly, my hands started twitching.
My body went limp as I started hearing TV static while the voices of others invaded my mind, "Kamaria, stop this nonsense." my limbs were sore, blood leaked own the chains as they squeezed. Am I a doll for amusement? Yea, that's probably right.
-Spirit World- Koenma's Office-
"Koemna, sir. I think you should take a look at this!" the blue ogre, named George, walked into his boss' office waving a paper frantically. The toddler waved his hand nonchalantly, while he intensely watched his spirit detective's recent case, "But Koenma sir! This is-"
"Quiet George, I told you not to disturb me." he glanced angrily at the ogre.
"Koenma! You-"
"George..."
"-should read-"
"GEORGE!" The ogre hastily handed the paper to Koenma, who intern hastily stamped and threw it back, "Now that's settled, go get Botan and STUB DISTURBING ME!" Koenma slammed his fists on the desk and the blue ogre sped out the door. Muttering he went back to watching the end of his spirit detective's current case.
-Human World- Spirit Team-
"And down you go… SPIRIT GUN!" the detective dished off the extermination of some upper D-class demons, "Kuwabara do ya need help with the ass kicking?"
A red-headed Elvis impersonator waved an orange energy sword, "I don't need your help Urameshi!" Kuwabara finished of his demons and ran stupidly towards Urameshi.
"Time to report back to Botan-"
"I will see you soon my love Yukina!" Kuwabara skipped off in a random direction.
"Idiot! The temple is this way!" Urameshi pointed in the opposite direction.
Urameshi and Kuwabara approached the temple, Kuwabara ran off exclaiming his affection for Yukina. The detective shook his head and headed for the temple doors when it was suddenly opened for him, smacking him right in the face.
"Yusuke! Was your mission a success? I would hope so 'cause then you wouldn't be here…huh?" she looked down to see Yusuke heaped over the group in quite the mess. She nervously laughed and started poking him until he sprang up.
"So ya got the next mission?" Botan handed him the file, "Illegal use of demonic plants, thievery, abduction, other lame stuff, this sounds like your everyday demon. When do we start?"
"Kuwabawa's staying while you, Hiei and Kurama will take this assignment."
"Well then tell the shrimp and the fox to get their asses over here so we can start this mission!"
"Yusuke, Hiei and I were already here. We were informed and were waiting for our arrival." The red-head fox concluded.
"Well then let's get this mission started!" Yusuke formed his trademark gun and the team left.
-Back to that lonely cell-
I came to this cell at a young age, according to most, I was nearly twelve years old. The memory was fuzzy at first but slowly I began to remember the time before I came here...
-Flashback-
I was up before dawn, watching the sun peek above the clouds, the quiet calming me. A few minutes later I heard shuffling as the staff members were starting their day, getting the orphanage ready. I stole a glance at my roommate who was much older than I, she was still sleeping but soon she would be waking. I stealthily headed for an exit, but it didn't faze my roommate.
"Sophia, don't you take one more step!" I winced as I continued to reach for the doorknob when I heard the same voice, "Did you hear me? Get away from that door... please?" I sighed and backed towards the voice.
I turned to face my roommate, "Marie, is their something you require?" I tossed my head to the young woman who treated me kindly, giving me my English name. She lived in Europe before her family moved to Japan, she lived with them for a bit until they died. I've roomed with her since I came here. She had soft blue eyes with blond hair.
Her smile softened, "You forgot your shawl," she placed the white shawl over my baby blue dress, "Do tell me or your adventures when you return."
I nodded with a small smile, "Your'e the only one who believes me. Everyone else says I'm," I paused for dramatics, "delusional!" I waved my hands while making a face and Marie laughed lightly.
"Others lack the knowledge, or faith, to see what clearly what is there... shoo now, you don't want stay for all the other kids to wake." I groaned slightly and nodded, walking out the door to start my adventures.
The autumn breeze blew my hair, whirling it, I took i the scenery around me. The trees reflected a burst of warm colors, orange, red and yellow. Jack-o-lanterns were scattered and leaves danced in the air, gracefully landing to the ground. I smiled and ran into the woods to a semi-secret place of mine.
I approached an area where trees were thick but I found a small clearing-like circle. I twirled around, smiling, laughing, and hugging myself. I was just enjoying the small moment were I let my childish urges free.
A glint of silver caught my attention and I stopped, "You came back?" a fox appeared and I smiled. I started talking to the silver fox, I had a good feeling he could understand me. I stared into his golden eyes, "Can I know your name?" the fox slowly shook his head, "Oh, that's alright," I let a small sigh fall from my lips.
My head was up in an instant the moment I heard heavy footsteps. I looked at the fox, "I think we should hide... maybe spy a 'lil," I grinned and climbed up and thick-branched oak and hid in its limbs.
"Were is that damned fox?" a large brute with horns asked.
"Yoko Kurama?" a batlike woman screeched.
"Who else do we know is a silver fox?" a sly voice asked, I took a closer look and noticed this figure appeared catlike. He had black tresses for hair, tanned skin and what appeared to be tattoos across his skin. I blinked, so the fox's name is Yoko? I moved my arm slightly and the catlike man whipped his head and my direction with narrowed eyes, "Seems like we have a little spy."
I panicked and started to nimbly climb the tree, trying to evade the man below me. We were always about a few yards away, I continued scrambling when I neared the top. I panicked, noticing the figure approaching quickly and I did the only thing I could do, I jumped.
The fall was slow, too slow. I had my eyes closed waiting for impact when my eyebrows knitted. I slowly opened my eyes to see myself in the air, I took a deep breath and heard a faint beating noise. I turned my head and noticed wings sprouted from my head, the sight shocked me. My flight stopped and I continued my plummet down to ground where I caught a glimpse at the silver fox before I blacked out. Was the fox sad?
-Flashback End-
I paused remembering that day and sleep slowly crept to my exhausted body. I closed my eyes to succumb to a sickly slumber.
Review, Favorite, Follow Plz? I just started this story because of a small idea I wrote down during school. It soon developed to this chapter, I wanted to write more but I kinda wanted to get it done as well.
