Sasu: I am soooo sorry that last chapter was so short. I didn't think it'd turn out that short once posted. Guess I should've gone as far as when Hiro…no I wont say it. It'll ruin this next chapter. -pounces on HyperRyu-chan69- Yay! My first reviewer! Thanks for the review and as a reward here's the next chapter! I guess not that many people like Hiro-Yuki stories –clenches fists- but I wont let that get me down! Sorry it sucks so bad but I've never written fan fiction before. I'm more of an original writer. Here's a prologue of one of them. It's long. Just an F.Y.I.

Sorry the thing is so long too.


Title Unknown (Prologue and part of chapter 1)

Meiji Era-9:00AM

Darkness covered the sky as crows flew out of the dark forest. The rising sun was shadowed by what seemed to be a growing black cloud. Near by in a small hut, a young boy and his father prepared to go fishing.

"Akito honey! You and Kyo be careful, okay?"

"Ok! Bye! See you later." Akito replied to his wife. Placing his hand on his son's shoulder, they headed to the forest. As they reached the entrance, Kyo noted the darkening sky.

"Father. What's going on? Why's the sky getting dark?" he asked, pointing to the sky. Akito looked up and his face darkened.

"I don't know son. But why don't we find out?" Kyo looked at the forest and then at his dad.

"Ok dad. Let's go." They glanced at one another briefly and walked into the forest. They headed towards the heart of the forest, following no specific path. As father and son got closer they saw a small light which grew bigger and brighter the nearer they came. Suddenly they came upon a clearing where a large fire roared and crackled. They watched as a hooded figure danced around the fire all the while chanting. Noticing a small wall of stones behind the figure and the fire, Kyo guided his dad over. Once there, they crouched down, watching closely. Kyo surprised his father by swinging around suddenly to face him.

"Dad! That man! That's the old man who got exiled from the village a few days ago." Akito was now alert and as he watched the figure, he saw that his son was right. He looked down at Kyo gravely.

"Something's not right here. We need to head back to the village and tell people before something terrible happens." A blast exploded behind knocking them to the ground as the fire grew spontaneously bigger. Akito, upon instinct, had shielded his son and now helped him on his feet. They spun around to see what had conspired. A chill ran down Akito's spine as they watched a sinister looking man step out of the fire. Quickly, Akito pulled Kyo back behind the rocks, waiting for the dark ones to leave so that they could escape.

"Master. It's good to have you back among the living again." The voice of the old man carried to where they hid, oblivious to their presence.

"Yes. It's been many an age since I walked upon this fowl land. I must cleanse it of its impurities." The new voice instilled fear into the hearts of both listeners, freezing them where they sat. "It seems, my servant, that we have a couple of spies listening in on our…innocent conversation. Come. Let us greet them" and so saying he walked around the rock pile and stood towering above the "spies". Akito slowly stood up to face the dark master.

"What do you want? Why are you here?" shaking, Akito confronted the man, hoping he would leave them alone.

"Heh. Foolish man. You have no right to speak, and in that, no right to live. Therefore I shall set things right." He snapped his fingers and Akito burst into flames.

"Run Kyo! Warn everyone now!" Akito told his son as the flames engulfed him. Kyo watched helplessly as his father died.

"No!" Anger overwhelming him, Kyo also confronted the dark master. "Why'd you kill him? Why?" The dark master looked at the boy thoughtfully and then chuckled slightly.

"You, my boy, are perfect. Go and tell everyone that you meet that I, Ashona Minuzagi, have returned. You will be spared for this task to be done though if you seek me for revenge, I will kill you. Now go!" Kyo stood for a moment, still shocked at his father's sudden and abrupt death.

"I hate you." He shouted, choking down tears as he ran off into the woods.

"Heh. That boy won't stop till he finds me and avenges his father. Ah ha ha ha ha ha! Now the plan is set. It's time for my true resurrection to take place." The old man was somewhat scared by his masters doings but he foolishly overlooked it.

"Master. What are your plans?" Reminded of his faithful servant, Ashona turned around to face him.

"I have no need for trifles such as you to get in my way." Ashona smirked evilly as the old man started to back away.

"Master. Surely you don't mean to….ahhhhhhhhh!" the old man's scream echoed through the forest as he, like Akito, burst into flames with Ashona's cruel laughter following.

Present day-1:47PM

"Gosh! That plane flight took forever. I'm glad we're back on ground." Sammi and Kristy jumped into a cab while Kristy's parents took another. "So Kristy. What's this great place I hear we're staying at?"

"Well, it's called a dojo." Sammi looked at Kristy skeptically and then faced forward in the cab. "Don't worry Sammi, we'll be there soon. You'll see." As soon as she had spoken they pulled up to the entrance gate of the dojo.

"This better be good." Sammi mumbled as she got out of the cab. Kristy's father, Kevin, unlocked the gates and opened them ceremoniously. "This place is a dump!" Sammi spouted, receiving a glare and a bandana over her mouth in return. "Hef! Kriffie!" were Sammi's muffled cries as Kristy playfully swung Sammi over her shoulder and marched into the gates.

"Welcome to my grand estate where you shall be staying for the remainder of the summer, my dear Sammi." Kristy laughed melodiously and let Sammi down, running into the dojo claiming that the left half was all hers.

"No fair Kristy!" Sammi ran in after her to remind Kristy that they were going to share a room. She skidded to a halt, staring in wonder at the décor of the room. "Wow! This stuff must be ancient!"

"Sammi. Go get your cousin and tell her that we're going out to eat. I'm hungry after that long flight."

"Ok Uncle Kevin. I'll be right back." Off she ran quick as lightning looking for Kristy. Turning down the hallway to the left she tripped over something and landed on Kristy.

"Oof! Geez Luis Sammi! Why don't you watch where you're going?"

"Well," she replied, "maybe if you weren't lying in the middle of the floor I wouldn't have fallen on you. What were you doing on the floor anyways?"

"Actually, I'm not quite sure myself." Sammi looked at her strangely. "See, I was just walking down this hallway and then the next thing I know your on top of me. I think somewhere in between the walking and you on top of me, I might've passed out or something."

"I see. Are you sure you didn't trip over the same thing I did and hit your head too hard?" Kristy shook her head. "Oh well. What was that thing I tripped over anyways?" Kristy got up and went into a nearby room coming back with a lighted candle. "Does this place have any electricity?" Kristy laughed. "Didn't think so." Bringing the candle over to where Sammi had hit her foot and tripped, Kristy found a small hole in a board slightly bent upward. Wedged into it was a red jewel. She pulled it out and after staring at it for a bit, stuck it in her pocket. "Hey Kristy. What'd you find?"

"Just a bent up board. It can be easily nailed back down. Come on, let's not worry my parents. They went back to the main room where her parents stood waiting.

"Ready to get some chow Kristy? I can show you how good I am at using chopsticks." Kristy and Sammi laughed at his boast. "What? I was being serious.

"It's ok honey. They just don't understand how simple you are." Marene, Kristy's mom, looked at the girls with a smile on her face and they giggled.

"Thank you Marene. I knew you understood." After a look at the girls and then rethinking what his wife had just said, he gained a hurtful look. "Come on Marene. Am I really?"

"Yes dear. Simple and slow. But enough of this, I'm hungry and those taxis aren't getting cheaper by the minute." With that, they headed out the door and got into the taxis.


Well. Now that that's over. I shall post the next chapter of "Love after tomorrow" separately.

Sasu: Read and Review this please! Oh and Kristy and Sammi have japanese names. Sammi's is Momou. (heh) and Kristy's is Sanane. Last name for both is Ishousen. Weird yes but oh well. Enjoy!
