Title: Phoenix Tears
Disclaimer: The only people in this story that I own are Kira (my character), Serenity (her mother), Akito (father), Rinoku (pronounced Rin-oh-ku, my OC's brother, and will be introduced in another chapter), Nohaka, and… well I'll tell you the chapter that they're introduced. Anyway, Amaya Ainiku, Seiya, Donte, and Inu-Risa belong to my friends. In addition, Kumo and Hana Ainiku belong to the owner of Amaya.
WARNING: This story is rated R and will contain Lemons, Limes, and violence. While I am the main author, there will be one or more co-authors so not all of the scenes are mine. I have posted descriptions of the OC(s) and some are very, very long, however I will include vague descriptions here and there in story. The main reason the story is so long is that I'm exceedingly picky about the grammar and punctuation so I'll be treating this story as if it was school work and worth ¾ of my grade. I will add a lot of slang and will over exaggerate ramble even more so ". I'll also probably write some stuff that won't make any sense till later chapters just so ya know, and the year will be 2004 since that is when I originally wrote this chapter. Also Kira's dream/memory is kinda very long, so please bear with me. Which reminds me, I take a long time working on the chapters so it could be a while before I can update mainly because this is my FIRST fan fiction, so please be as nice as you can in your reviews/flames?

The right one was black symbolizing the Dragon of the Darkness Flame and the left one was gold symbolizing the Dragon of the Lightest Flame. Scarred on her back were the words (in Japanese) 'Forbidden Child born of a White Ice Phoenix and a Blue Flame Fire Cat–Nohaka'.

Chapter 1: Kira's memory, a new power, and meeting Hiei
War, bloodshed, and tears are all she grew up around. Being a demon in such an era is both a blessing…..and a curse, especially one born with mixed blood of a Fire Cat…..and an Ice Phoenix. Her father a demon lord, and her mother his lady. She is both the most dangerous…...and the most vulnerable. Her full name is Kirako Miyuki Rei Eukima, more commonly known as Kira or….The Dark Huntress.
Zzz-Dream/Memory sequence; is July 16, 1420; 9:24 pm; in the Makai-zzz
"Mommy!" I shouted, running into my Mother's open arms.
"What is it, Kitten?" She asked, gazing at me lovingly and smiling at my little body that is excessively small for my age.
"Mr. Ainiku-sama wants to talk with us in the throne room," I chirped, smiling happily.
"Mr. Ainiku-sama? You mean the Caption of your father's guard?" She questioned, surprise clearly etched on her features.
"Yes mommy, I may only be two years old but I know who Mr. Ainiku-sama is", I stated with an exasperated sigh.
She just grinned, her silvery-gold eyes shining with delight. "Come, let's go Kitten," she said softly.
I looked up at my Mama, a puzzled look on my face and my eyes full of confusion. My eyes are a beautiful blue-gray outlined with navy, and my cat-like pupils are outlined with gold that turns green the closer to the blue-gray it gets.
Half way to the throne room I stop dead in my tracks, and sadness filling my eyes. Mama, sensing that I had stopped, stops herself and turns to see what's wrong.
I, seeing my Mother's questioning gaze, answered forlornly "Something very bad is going to happen, Mama."
My Papa chose that moment to seemingly pop out of nowhere. He looked from Mama's confused face to my dismal one. Confused, he asked what was wrong. Mama turned from me, to Papa and told him what happened. Papa walked over to me and kneeled down so that he was eye level with me. "Kira, nothing bad is going to happen", he said as he looked into my eyes.
"How can you be so sure, Papa?" I questioned, the symbol on my forehead glowing mysteriously. It was a golden crescent moon facing upward with a turquoise Mercury symbol in the middle of it.
Papa raised his hand and stroked the three magenta, slash-like markings on my right cheek, so similar to his own. The markings are a sign of the Blue Flame Fire Cat royalty. The markings on my forehead are from her mother, it's a sign of the Ice Phoenix royalty. "I'm not Kitten, I can't see the future," he stated, not noticing the glowing symbol on my forehead due to my unruly, black with turquoise tipped bangs hiding it from view.
I just nodded in response to Papa and smiled, offering my hand to him "Lets go, Ainiku-sama is waiting for us."
Papa stood and took my offered hand. With that we went to the throne room to meet Kumo Ainiku and his mate Hana. Hana is Mama's older twin sister; also they're both White Ice Phoenixes. Once inside, Mama darted over to her sister and glomped her. Papa eyed Uncle Kumo with a sly grin and I just stood there with a puzzled expression.
Uncle Kumo stepped forward "I'm having a baby!" he said, dancing around excitingly.
"No, I'm having the baby," stated Aunt Hana with a smirk, then looking at Mama, continued "and it's a girl."
Mama squealed causing me to jump in surprise and stared at her with wide eyes. 'Mama never squeals, Aunt Hana sure……Mama HELL NO!' "Do you have a name picked out?" She asked, her long, flowing, bird-like tail twitching with excitement, as was her wings.
"Yes we have," Aunt Hana replied proudly "her name will be Amaya Kori Hana Ainiku."
I looked at my Mama and asked calmly "Mommy, where do babies come from?" causing everyone to sweatdrop.
She smiled nervously and replayed "Well mommies and daddies work really……really hard in their bedrooms……on their beds……uh, calling the stork!"
"Smooth," whispered Aunt Hana.
"Oh…..Mommy, do you want a baby?" I asked innocently.
"No. Why?"
"Because I heard you and Daddy trying to call the stork last night," I stated, causing Mama to turn beet red and everybody else to laugh.
Nohaka, a snake demon and Mama's best friend, came rushing in screaming "ATTACK! ATTACK! THERE'S AN ATTACK ON THE CASTLE!"
"Are you sure, Nohaka?" Papa demanded, probably hoping that someone was just playing a prank.
"Yes milord, I am sure," she replied frantically.
Nobody but Uncle Kumo noticed that my eyes had taken on a cat-like shape and turn a solid blood red with wider, cat-like pupils (think Kilala/Kirara's eyes from Inuyasha). He also noticed that I was glaring evilly at Nohaka and emitting a hiss-like growl from deep in my chest. By the look in my eyes, and who I was glaring/hissing at, Uncle Kumo probably had an inkling suspicion that I knew who was responsible for the attack. 'But that's impossible,' he thought, eyes widened slightly in shock then narrow in suspicion 'unless she's a telepath, but that's even more impossible, Serenity and/or Akito would have told Hana and myself if she was.'
'They were going to tell you, Uncle Kumo, but she walked in,' I stated in his head, hardly registering the amount of venom that I put in the word she.
"Kumo!" at Papa's commanding voice, Uncle Kumo snapped out of his shocked daze. "I need you to round up the army." Then turned to Aunt Hana and Mama "I need the both of you to take Kira and run," getting a series of nods in reply.
Mama rushed forward and picked me up, my eyes having already returned to normal. After Mama had me in a position where I could be safe and not dropped while running, we ran out of the room with Aunt Hana………and Nohaka.
With the girls; 10:06 pm
We managed to get out of our maze-like castle/mansion and were darting through the mass of servants, guards, and attackers. Amazingly the castle hasn't been set on fire nor is it being completely destroyed (A/N: you'll find out why in another chapter). When we were a mere 10 ft from the tree line Aunt Hana and Mama were grabbed from behind while I was snatched out of Mama's arms. They were being held with their hands behind their backs with knives at their throats by two fire demons, and had an ofada on each of their back, except Nohaka. I was being held by my wings by her.
Nohaka then threw me onto the ground below her and stepped on my right wing, smirking when she heard the bone crack. I could just winced in pain as my poor, beautiful black and turquoise wing was fractured.
"Nohaka! Why? Why did you betray us? Betray me?" Mama managed to cry out (A/N: yes, yes, crony I know), tears streaming from her eyes and hitting the ground as glowing yellow tears-gems with a pink light in the center of each. Blood trickling down her neck, were the knife was cutting into her, and onto her snow white kimono.
"Why? Why!" Nohaka said mockingly with an evil cackle. "I'll tell you why. You had the nerve to mate with a creature that is forbidden to your kind and you produced a child! However," she paused to unsheathe a short sword with a black, 2 ft blade "I figured out to kill you as your punishment. Since phoenixes can't normally be killed, I'll just use your daughter's blood to counter act with your blood and kill you!"
"Don't you dare touch her!" Aunt Hana and Mama both screamed in unison.
"Oh I dare," Nohaka hissed, and then used the sword to cut open the part of my dark blue kimono that was right in between my wings. Again using the sword, she carved into the center of my back (A/N: remember YYH is a Japanese anime, therefore this is written in Japanese) "Forbidden Child born of a White Ice Phoenix and a Blue Flame Fire Cat – Nohaka". I just glared at a spot on the ground to keep myself from screaming in pain, my eyes were beginning to turn red again.
Once Nohaka was done she began to walk toward Mama, sword raised. Papa ran out of the, now, burning castle/mansion in time to see Nohaka plunge the blood stained sword into Mama's heart.
I tried not to listen to my Mama's blood curdling scream as she died, the sound will forever be etched into my brain. Papa rushed forward in a blind rage to kill Nohaka, failing to the fire demon that wasn't restraining Mama's sister. Aunt Hana and I watched in horror as the fire demon darted forward and severed Papa's throat with the knife that he was holding.
The demon holding Aunt Hana loosened his grip enough for her to break free, grab the knife, and nail him in the head. Turning toward me, she yelled "Kira, run! You have to get out of here!"
Hearing her voice, I snapped out of my shocked daze and stood, wincing slightly from the pain in my wing. I could only nod in understanding having lost my voice. Forcing down the bile that was rising in my throat I turned and fled into the forest that was surrounding Papa's territory. About 1 kilometer out of his territory I started to her a baby's crying coming from the direction I was heading.
As I walked cautiously into a clearing the crying suddenly ceased. Confused, I stopped to look around the clearing. After about 3 minutes I spotted it. Hanging from a tree was a cocoon of bandages with a power seal wrapped around it multiple times. On closer inspection I noticed a pair of crimson colored eyes (A/N: sound familiar anyone?) staring down at me from the parting in the bandages. Realization hit me like a ton of bricks. The crying that I had heard came from the owner of those beautiful eyes. They belonged to a, male, and a Forbidden Child (/hint, hint nudge, nudge/) if my nose was anything to go by.
Panic coursed through my body causing me to momentarily forget about her pain. 'I have to get him down from there!" I thought. Spreading out my wings I was reminded that one was fractured, and if used to much it could break. Never the less I slowly and clumsily flew until I was about 1/3 of a yard from him. With my arms outstretched, I flew forward, my finger-tips beginning to brush against the wrappings. Then there was a sickening crack and my scream of pain as I plummeted toward the ground…..
END OF DA CHAPPIE!
