It is a tale as old as time, a brown-haired beauty is rescued from a pack of rabid wolves by a beast, the two fall in love with each other, together discovering their mutual interest in tormenting peasants of the nearby village. In this tale a red-headed potential beauty queen is saved from a vicious gang by a shadowy beast in human form, the beauty found her strength in the beast's predator/prey mentality and helped the beast to find a target for her anger against anything weak, in the form of her former best friend.
For almost almost two years the beauty and the beast lead a campaign of torment against beauties former friend, rumor mongering, destroying her possessions, causing bruises and intimidating her, when no one in authority was looking, and sometimes when they were. It was in the opening days of year two thousand eleven, when they trapped the girl in a metal coffin full of blood and insects, leaving her to die.
The girl screamed and begged for release, but no one was willing to help her. As sounds faded into into a setting sun, the girl came to realize she was left here to die, she began to pray within her own soul for salvation from anyone or anything to save her.
Flickers of light began to appear within her tomb, and the girl gasped in wonder at the lights, even as she began to lose consciousness as a vision of two immense spiraling beings imprinted into her mind. The girl gasped for another breath and the light that was forming in the casket was drawn into her throat, she could feel it burning her very soul. With a final scream of soul searing pain, there was a burst of light and all was silent.
The hallway was silent, scorched metal, half melted into the walls, within a locker, the door half bent, a single hand of blue crystal frozen in time reached for freedom.

In an alternate universe, deep in space far beyond what man has explored in the modern age, the greatest scientific genius in the universe, Washu Hakubi (Eagle-feather Excellence) is deep in the bowels of her laboratory. The diminutive scientist had the appearance of a 12 year old human child, but in fact, was over fifteen thousand years old (as far as she knew). Her long flowing floor length pink hair, framed her face like the legs of a crab, as she easily made her way skipping, into the deepest parts of her inter-dimensional lab.
Washu was in the midst of conducting routine maintenance on her equipment, while various systems monitored her other experiments, a spring cleaning one might say. She checking the devices that maintained the dimensional pocket he rlab was in, when she received an alert about an unknown dimensional breach located in an alternate universe.
"How interesting," Washu grinned to herself, a glint of intrigue shone in her eyes, even as she summoned her holographic keyboard in front of her.
Being the curious person she is, Washu activates a remote system to monitor and retrieve any data about the breach.
Suddenly, alarms ring out across the laboratory, as a power surge rocks through Washu's equipment, causing the entire dimensional pocket to shake like it was an earthquake. At the same time an massive energy spike in the breach her instruments had detected, interacts with the monitoring systems in the lab and with a surge of ionized atmosphere, a hole in the fabric of the universe erupts open in front of Washu. The rupture pulsed, even as all available sensors recorded data to multiple systems.
A critically injured teenage human girl, falls out of the portal just before it closes, leaving the girl dying at Washu's feet.
