A Kitsune's Desire

Chapter 1: The Yearning

Why…. What is my purpose in this flesh and fur if I feel the need for so much more…

Thus the thoughts of the cunning nine tailed fox whose beauty knew no bounds. Her sleek ivory fur glistened with the touch of the moons gentle glow. Honeyed orbs stared deep into her reflection. Was this her fate to live and die without knowing… no… feeling truly alive as she belonged. Her mind flooded with her desires and wishes as she rose to her feet. Slowly the lithe fox turned away and padded further into the enchanted forest, he grace unfaltering.

However it was not long before her sensitive nose caught a scent. She came to an abrupt halt, ears moving back, orbs staring into the direction where the scent of metal, gunpowder, and blood came. A pang of curiosity struck her and before long she found her body being drawn in the direction of the scent. The closer she drew near she heard the grisly cries of dying mortals and the sound of battle.

Humans… always are doing the unnecessary. Foolish as they may be I feel drawn to them.. Why? What gives them such a drive other than to merely survive… I must know… silly me… now I am being the fool…

Ahri was at war with her own thoughts such as the battle that lay ahead. No hesitation was shown as her movement increased till she was racing towards the battlefield. Bodies of men bleeding out lined the dirt. It was a horrific scene for anyone to come upon but the fox was not phased. Smoke rose up around the barren waste which once was a green meadow deep within the enchanted forest.

So much death..

Suddenly something caught her attention. A faint blue glow illuminated the body of a man who was in the last few moments of his life. He wore a tattered cobalt robe. He wasn't that of an ordinary mortal… magical energy leaked from his broken body.

Ahri paused for a moment and her gaze caught his. To him she appeared as a white blur… perhaps even a specter for his vision was already fading into dark. She felt as if she could see straight into the man's soul and slowly approached him, eyes still locked with his. For whatever the reason he reached out to her, perhaps thinking she was an angel of sorts come to take him to his final rest, but indeed he was wrong.

With that she moved her muzzle to meet his frail hand. A lust rose up within and before she knew it the soft blue glow engulfed her as the man's soul penetrated her very being. Senses were overwhelmed and Ahri became intoxicated on this strange form of power which built up inside. The soft white fur on her form dissipated as the light swirled more vigorously around her. Fox like appendages began to take the form of arms and legs. Paws turned to hands and feet. Her soft muzzle lost its fur as it receded to take the shape of a mortal's petite nose and soft feminine lips. Ebon strands of hair began to cascade down this new body, adorning every curve it fell upon in a flattering manner.

Even with such drastic change her tails remained but grew in size to fit this new shape, black furred ears poked through the soft ebon strands atop her head, and 3 black whiskers remained on each cheek but did not take away from her grace.

The blue light pulled away from Ahri till it formed a blue orb that swirled with the power of souls from the battlefield as well as a magical essence collected from the forest. This would later become known as The Orb of Deception.

A softer light engulfed her nude form till silk cloth formed her elegant wardrobe. Among her new outfit was a ruby top with detached sleeves that flared out the closer they were to her soft hands, embroidered with a golden pattern. Ivory cloth lined the outside of each and the color scheme continued with the skirt. The ruby hue however was the pattern this time and the trim was that of the gold. An intricate tassel hung from the silk chest flowing down and ending before reaching the earth. Ebon flats lined with the same ruby hue fit her feet to perfection. White stockings rose from them with ruby ribbons wrapped gently around, this was cut off a bit below her knees by the same hued silk that held it all together.

Instinctively she rose to her feet, satisfaction filling her very heart and soul. She was reborn anew yet not foolish enough to think she was a mortal. No… she knew better than this. As a creature of high intelligence her mind told her this transformation was far from complete and as far as that went she already knew she would probably need to retain souls for now to keep this new form.

I am refreshed… more powerful then I once was. Given a chance at a new life perhaps now I can find my answers. My path may be littered with obstacles but my will to survive is strong.

Ahri's gaze moved to the orb that hovered around her before moving to the open sky littered with tiny flecks of light all surrounding the moon at its fullest.

"No one will stand in my way." smooth voice filled the smoky air with such a strong confidence that if any were to hear it they would in fact believe it themselves. The corners of those soft lips rose as the fox began moving away from the desecrated grounds, briefly stopping if she detected a soul that had quite not escaped to the afterlife yet. What happened was simple really. All she did was hold The Orb of Deception near her victim and drain whatever life essence remained before moving on.

A new feeling struck her that she couldn't quite figure out. It was that of guilt. As a fox she never felt many emotions a mortal would feel. She'd take what was needed to survive and life would go on. The feeling of guilt was not one she liked, and with guilt came pity upon the poor souls she devoured with the orb. With a quick shake of the head she pushed it to the back of her mind brushing it off.

I must do what is needed to survive as I have done before. I am not wrong in my quest for new possibilities and meaning. I will take what I need.

Mortality was dawning on her but she used such thoughts to keep herself reassured. There was never a line for right and wrong as a fox, only the need to do what it took to stay alive, it was kill or be killed. With this change her new life began.

Notes: Not 100% sure where I am going to take the story yet but I will go as it comes :) I wanted to cover Ahri's base story before I went deeper into this. Of course there will be more since I only covered the beginning of it and didn't even get to her joining the League of Legends thus far. Also there will obviously be other League of Legends characters when I get to it. ^.^ Ahri being my favorite however bases it all around the sexy fox we all know and love. Positive suggestions to the story may be considered. :) Anyway enjoy!
