Prologue
The mythical beasts gathered at a cape in Japan. To one side there stood a forest, ancient and deep. On the other side, an ocean crashed against the shore. There was a pair representing every species. Their presence was sensed by the Lord and Lady of the Mystic Isle, so they came. Two humans were flung to the ground before the fairy folk.
"Lord and Lady," a dragon began, "these two have attempted to destroy us." Lady Titania glared at the mortals and called upon her fairy magic.
"You humans are now transformed. What you were no longer is with you. Now, as half-immortal, you transform into cats to protect life. This is a curse to appear every twenty generations in your family. Such is your punishment for your destructive attempts."
There was a bright flash of light, then the meadow only held the two humans. "I guess we shouldn't return to the village we're from. They would try to kill us." the man declared. Sorrow was hidden deep within his voice; as the village had been the only home he'd known. What had possessed him to take on that mission? Now both knew, the wandering woman and the brave defender, that someone had wanted to get rid of them. Yet in doing so, they had caused a curse to fall upon their victims. Blame fell not on those of the Fairy Isle, but upon the ones who set them up for the fall.
"You heard the Lady as well as I. We now must protect all life because of this curse. The cats within are now awake, and we must find a way to exist with them." the woman muttered. They left the clearing, heading deep into the woods. And in that forest, they hid while they learned how to protect what lived on the world. Only once mastered did they venture out once again. Now they were known as Aiden, the Fiery Ones. Not much escaped them for they were two in one.
