Prologue
**
A time where humans called it X-years

===============================

In the middle of a war zone, stood two individuals. On the left is a red haired Mazoku
with ruby red eyes holding a large dark energy blade. On the right stood a golden haired
dragon maiden holding a golden energy blade that could match her opponent's. They
looked at each other knowing that this would be the final duel between them, as only one
would leave this battlefield alive. Furthermore their strength was almost exhausted. One
last hit would finally determine their fate and the fate of the world. It would either be
destroyed or preserved. Gathering their remaining strength they jumped for the last time
and exchanged blows.

/Slash!/ \Slash!\

The battle finally had a result. The red haired Mazoku fell down into the arms of the
golden haired dragon. He looked into the dragon maiden's ocean blue eyes with his last
remaining strength and said, "So...this...is.... the...end...huh!!...Cei-chan" The golden
haired dragon just looked at the red haired Mazoku sadly, holding back tears in her
beautiful ocean blue eyes.

"Don't cry Cei-chan..we knew...this day would arrive sooner or later..." said the red
haired Mazoku. He stopped and continue after he'd caught his breath and said, "It is
against...their ...will...if we...don't...fight."

The dragon broke down and cried in silence. The Mazoku forced a cocky smile while he
wiped the tears away. "Please...stop...crying...Cei-chan especially...for
someone...like...me, but hey just just look ...at...the...bright...side, from this day forward
your...rid...of...me. After all...you complained that I...annoyed...you...for...so... long"

As if he triggered some memory she cried more intensively making the already
marshmallow brained Mazoku become more panicked. After a while she finally calmed
down and spoke in a soft but firm tone, "Namagumi...I...I love you".

The red haired Mazoku was rendered speechless but joy was unmistakably written all
over his face. Before he could say another word the golden haired dragon exclaimed,
"Therefore be prepared, I will hunt you down no matter where you are! And mark my
word I WILL find you." Then the dragon paused and waited for the Mazoku reply.
"Well...that...sounds like....fun Cei-chan", the Mazoku said and gave his love one last
smile while he slowly closed his eyes forever and vanished.

After the Mazoku vanished the golden haired dragon started muttering a spell under her
breath and slowly began to form a golden sword. She looked at the sword for a moment
then stabbed it through her heart, swearing an oath: "I will find you no matter where you
are Shabranigdo!"

Somewhere deep in the sea of Chaos a blond haired woman watched the incident take
place. She sighed sadly as she began to work on a spell to reprocess those two souls so
that they could be reborn. Even though Shabranigdo worked for her rival, she silently
hoped that those two would find each other in their next life.
