Disclaimer: I don't own Fushigi Yuugi or any of the characters associated with it. I do, however, own Shibien and her eight seishi and miko. I am not making any money off of this and I don't have Watase-san's permission to use her characters. Please notify me if you decide to archive this fic anywhere else. Arigatou! ^.^
Summary: AU. In the world of the Book of the Four Gods, there exists a legend beyond that of the Four Cardinal Gods: Genbu, Byakko, Seiryuu, and Suzaku. In this legend, eight warriors would be called upon, in a time when the Star Warriors of the Gods are in conflict, by a fifth God - and now the time has come for the Warriors of Shibien, the Goddess of the Central Direction, to fulfill this legend even at the cost of their lives.
Author's Notes: I spent enough time watching the show and researching the subject to know one thing: I am crazy. I actually found out there was a fifth set of constellations in the legend, that fall under the name of Shibien, the purple palace. This set actually does have eight constellations instead of the usual seven everyone is used to... Now If ANYONE knows what the real symbols are for those and the titles PLEASE email me at evapilot03@hotmail.com with the info. I would be very grateful 'cause I had to make up symbols to go with my characters with out ANY idea of what the real ones are...
Prologue - Burning Comfort
"I am so sorry, Aki," her twin brother, Akira, comforted. The two nineteen-year old siblings held each other as their house became a police crime scene. Their fifteen-year-old sister, Kei, had been a somewhat violent and explosive girl. But not this bad. Never this bad.
Aki nursed her broken left arm tenderly, while Akira nursed a wound on his right thigh. They had come home from a miserable night out with a couple of friends to see their little sister in the process of murdering their parents.
Kei had stabbed their father several times as their mother watched in horror. Aki had tried to hold her sister back, knowing her father was probably already dead. Kei had pushed her off into a coffee table, breaking her arm. Then she had pulled out a gun and shot their mother and grazed Akira. Then she had raised the gun to her head and pulled the trigger.
Now both Aki and Akira were not only covered in their parents' blood and their own, but Aki had been splattered with brain matter and more blood from Kei.
Suddenly both felt a burning sensation: Aki on her broken arm and Akira on his right. On Aki's arm blazed the symbol "yumi" in a blinding purple light while the symbol "uta" burned on Akira's in the same purple.
They felt the Light surround them, comforting and warm. Then they disappeared, leaving several astonished policemen behind them.
~*~*~*~*~
Yuki tossed his beautiful mane of long silver hair over his shoulder. People admired him not only for his immense beauty, but also for his strength. The seventeen-year-old boy had never had the benefit of a mother since she had abandoned him and his father at the age of three and she had never been heard from again.
And he had still turned out okay. His father hadn't been the kindest man, but he had at least cared and took care of his son. That was until a month ago when he had died. The doctors had said it was a heart attack, but Yuki just couldn't accept that his father had died that way.
But Yuki never showed his pain and hid behind his good looks.
A sudden burning sensation from his right thigh made him gasp. He looked down to see the "kori" symbol burning purple. "Ah. The comfort of ice," he muttered closing his icy blue eyes. The cool embrace of the purple light surrounded him, soothing. And he disappeared in that comfort.
~*~*~*~*~
Hikari hated his family. He didn't know why he continued to visit them. All during his childhood he was always being hit or yelled at. Usually for no reason. And today he had finally had enough. He had grabbed his stuff and left, never intending to return in his life. Ever.
Even now the beatings occurred and the 23-year-old man felt the fear and dread the same as when he was younger.
Brown bangs moved to cover black eyes and a nasty bruise appearing on his right temple and eye. His body ached like hell. Not a square inch didn't hurt.
But the oddly comforting burning on his stomach helped him get through the pain. Glancing down he noticed the "ken" symbol was blazing violet beneath the fabric of his shirt.
He smiled as the sensation spread through his body and engulfed him in violet light. He just didn't want to stay in this world any longer.

*Note: kori means ice, ken means sword, uta means song, and yumi means archery or bow (as in a bow and arrow). ^.^
Kali: *gets on knees, begging* PLEASE REVIEW!!! I need input.... or else I will slaughter the poor innocent souls that get in the way of my desperate need to destroy my story.
Aya: It's not that bad.
Kali: *glares at Aya* So you say....
Eagle: Honestly, Kali-chan. Don't kill anyone... the police would only suceed in catching you.
Kali: *glares at Eagle* That's it! I'm borrowing the FTO or Quey's gundam, Sandrock, and destroying something....
Quatre: Just refuel it when you're done!
Kali, Eagle, and Aya: *sweatdrop*
Eagle and Aya: Just review before Kali-chan goes crazy.... -er.... crazier....
