Mine; Prologue

The door closed softy with the slight click of it locking and the light from the hall way was gone once again. The sound of foot steps across the old wood floor reminded her that she wasn't alone, nor would she ever be. Mismatched green and blue orbs looked up, staring at the pale feminine face with the deep indigo eyes, the feeling of a cold bony hand sliding around her neck to push her hair up with the same bony fingers that did every night.

"Akito.." Her own hand found the thin wrist and pulled it away softy before leaning her cheek in to it. "How are you this fine evening?"

Akito's thumb stroked the girl's cheekbone, His eyes soft and narrowed. Sighing he moved his hand from her cheek and sat on his knees in front of her.

"Awful." He slid both hands over her cheeks guiding her closer to him to show her face in the pale light that was in the room. "Seeing my lovely Hyou makes me feel much better though." That cruel, all knowing smile crossed his lips before he leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to the girl's own lips. He knew she would not flinch or push him away because she belonged to him. She, Fair skinned and dark haired girl belonged to him, not like the others belonged to him but in a sense of owning a pet.

The girl stayed seated, her hands at her side wile Akito's lips where pressed against her own, with her eyes closing and drawing in the smell of spices and incense she drifted for a moment before her senses stopped and Akito backed off.

"Aubrey, Tell me again about the Hyou." The skinny God yawned and slid down, resting his head against her legs wile looking at her waiting for her to begin.

Aubrey pulled in a deep breath before beginning the tale. "Centuries ago when this family was young, and Hidden from the rest of the world. We where admired for our beauty and abilities.." she paused and her body froze wile Akito pulled her down, one slender arm draping over her side to keep her close to his body, sighing she continued.

"The Nezumi with his ability to trick and get what he wanted, the Oushi with his strength…" Aubrey continued going in order of the Juunishi, finally ending on the feline "And the Neko, The strong agile Neko that the Kami loved most of all." She watched Akito wrinkle his nose and stiffen at the thought of the ugly creature that was part of this family.

"But in addition to the 13 creatures there was the Hyou, the quiet and strong girl who was guardian of the Kami along with Ondori. Her creature, the large black feline with sleek fur and thick muscles was quiet and friendly, she killed when needed.." Aubrey could feel the slow warm breath against her arm, her eyelids heavy with sleep. "..She loved the Kami as much as the Kami loved her.." Akito's face loosened and he smiled.

Aubrey shifted and rolled over, Akito's arm around her tightening as if she was going to leave. Her eyes made contact with the creature lying in the corner of the room, its tail swaying behind it like an angry snake going to strike, the girl sighed and closed her mismatched eyes wile the large feline stared at the window then to the two bodies on the floor.

The creature stood up and moved closer to the two only to stop a foot away from the kami, lying down it blinked its own mismatched eyes, emerald green and midnight blue shifting colors to neon and red as it looked quickly at the scurrying rat as it moved across the room.
