A/N: This is a short prologue for my upcoming story. It's my first story here so R&R. Future chapters will be longer.
Lightning flashed across the darkened sky as the two lone figures glared at each other from across the bloodied land. They stood as two lone, yet living, monuments on a field of corpses. They stared; one gripping a halberd made from the minerals of the Earth in his bloodied hand as he leaned on it a grin spreading slowly across his features; the other gripping two blood soaked katana made of an unbreakable crystal in her pale hands as she glared hatefully at this man's grin.
He charged at her knowing what he would do, knowing what she would do, and knowing why. She charged at him knowing what he knew, and not caring. They had done this before, countless times in fact, always getting the same result. They fought relentlessly, tirelessly, passionately. They loved the bloodshed and hated it.
They paused for an instant; his weapon caught in hers, and looked into each other's eyes, which was all it took. He stared at her icy violet eyes, into them, seeing the same thing he always did when this happened: a cold, senseless blood lust. She stared back at him staring into his golden eyes rimmed by black lids. She stared into those eyes wondering how he could make such a warm color look so cold. She saw his grin acquire a mischievous twist and felt her back forced up against a hard wall of sand. Before she could think his one hand slipped from the halberd and pinned her one wrist to the wall forcing her to drop the katana in that hand.
She glared at him as his other hand did the same to her other wrist and saw his feral eyes scan over her body. She knew what he was seeing. He saw her deep purple hair, done up artistically so it wouldn't get in her way during the battle, tinted with red from those she had slain. He saw her lips curled back in a vicious snarl revealing those oh-so-inhuman canines; her ice blue kimono, embroidered with the image of a griffin with ten tails from the hem all the way up to her hip, torn and bloodied with her blood as well as others; he saw everything.
He smirked at her revealing his own inhuman canines as he saw her staring at him. Like she knew what he saw; he knew what she saw. She saw his raccoon-like eyes and his devilish grin framed by his spiky and unruly sand colored hair stained red with blood from the battle. She saw his blood red robe, embroidered with the image of a raccoon-like creature, the tanuki, torn and slashed. She saw everything and he knew it as he stared at her smaller yet fierce and strong form pressed against the wall and leaned in closer to her so that his forehead was pressed against hers.
"I hate you." She snarled at him making him chuckle a low and deep sound.
"And I hate you." He said and, for the first time, she grinned at him something in her eyes changing.
"You are a pain in my ass…" she said pulling away from him easily since, in all truth, she was stronger than him.
"Then why didn't you kill me? We both know you could have done it…could still do it." the man stated and she looked at him with eyes that said it all.
"Don't make me say it again…you already know." She begged and he smiled wickedly.
"Oh…but I really want you to…besides…I won…and I demand a prize." He said and leaned closer to her ear and gently but firmly nipped at it earning a squeak from her and spoke pleadingly, "Please…say it…before it's too late."
She looked up into his black rimmed eyes…deep into his golden orbs with her own violet ones and smiled.
"I'm yours…all yours…and no one else's my blood stained warrior prince." She said as they finally felt the other presences around them, surrounding them and he smiled.
"That's right…you're mine, not his…oh and one more thing…" he said as he picked up his halberd and she her two katana.
"Yes?" she asked as they got into a battle stance back to back.
"I'm yours…all yours…and no one else's my blood stained warrior queen. Remember that forever." He said as the figures started running and screaming 'Traitors!' at the two tired demon lovers, "Remember that."
"I will." She said and he grabbed her by her waist and kissed her one last time as he transported her away from the battle and she shouted, "I will always find you! I will travel the ends of the Earth just to find you!"
"Say it again!" he called as he joined battle with the henchmen of his rival, the one who sought to own his warrior queen.
"I'm yours…and no one else's!" she called to the winds one last time.
