Chapter 2: Dangerous magic and the return.
6 months had passed and Kira was having a great time in NYC. Affinity was training both Sage and her in the ways of the Sain and their new powers. The training was hard, but for once, it was something Kira was good at other then art. One thing that frightened Kira was her power. At first she didn't mind the lighter and more peaceful part of her magick, but it was the dark side of herself that she feared. Like she told Affinity many times she didn't want to kill and destroy. Affinity would just chuckle and tell Kira that she would understand when she actually met the evil demons and vampires. Oh and how right Affinity was. Kira loved all of herself now, though she still hated to kill.
While in NYC Kira found out how many things she was actually good at. It was so different then Japan. The culture was different in and yet still a little bit alike. Kira realized that she was actually good at sports, while at school she didn't want anyone to notice her so she always didn't give sports a try, but here she was accepted. Kira found herself changing not only in body, but in mind. Kira remember the day that her body changes finally finished and still she was in shock when ever she looked in the mirror.
The short and scrawny girl was no longer, but in her place was a 5'8", curvy, and busty young woman almost to adult hood. Her once deep orange eyes (orange in some of the mangas) was now a silvery blue, like the moon, during a cloudless night. Her semi curly blond hair was still just down to her butt, but the sparkle in it was amazing. Her hair shimmered like stars. Kira laughed to herself thinking about what Harumi would say if she saw her now.
Especially if she saw Kiras' hair streaked with pink, which Kira got professionally done for a movie. Along with getting her hair dyed for a movie Kira also had to get the painful procedure of getting piercings . One in her belly button, 3 in her ears and one in her ear cartilage. If Sage would have had it her way, Kira probably would be having a lot more considering how many Sage herself had. And her excuse was "You're a Sain, you gotta look the part."
Kira sighed and walked down the stairs to meet Sage. Her 3 inch Prada heels clicking with every step. Kira was kind of disgusted with herself she was a fashion plait now and it was weird to her. The girl who once didn't like to reveal herself and wasn't outgoing was now a famous model and star. She thanked god that Sage told people Kiras' fake name: Kiara Hartley, alias to Kira Aso.
"Ki, come on we'll be late to the club. Do you have your fake idea?" Sage screamed from downstairs.
Kira descended down the stairs and smiled at Sage.
"Yes, I have it. Could you tell me again why we have to go clubbing today?"
"Well you see Affinity noticed a few sketchy guys at the club and she says they're vamps, maybe even demons. You see, this club that we are going to has been having some trouble, seems like there have been cases of people found dead or missing. So we are off to kick butt. You with me or not?"
Kira laughed and put her hair up in a pony tail. "Well someone has to watch your back and make sure you don't get your ass whooped."
"Ouch that was low Ki."
"Sorry, but still you know you need me or else you'll end up getting into some kind of trouble."
"But of course." Sage said sarcastically
Kira shook her head and ran out the door grabbing her car keys. Sage had tried many times to teach Kira how to ride a motorcycle, but motorcycles always reminded Kira of Rei and her heart was still bleeding. Anyways Kira was completely content with her baby. Her silver Jaguar XKR convertible.
"So you riding with me this time or am I going to have too ride with you Sage?"
"Well I guess I'll ride with you. It's pretty cold out."
"I'll say and I am so happy you didn't make me wear a skirt. Leather pants are fine for me thank you."
"Your just jealous because I have longer legs!"
Kira looked at Sage oddly.
"WHAT! It was only a joke."
"I know, but what freaks me out is the fact that you are getting cornier every day."
"Shut up!"
~~~~~~~
Kira and Sage arrived at the club when it was in full swing. The many dancing bodies were sweating, people were drunk and couples were either making out or were so drunk that they were having public sex. Kira turnd away from the perverted scene and looked around. The club was pretty clean, that is if you discounted all throw up and sweating bodies passed out on the floor. Kira eyed a group of guys at a corner. They glowed and she could sense it in her blood. They were vamps and they were up to no good.
Sage came to her side also looking warily at the vampires.
"What do you think they're up to?" Kira questioned
"I don't know, maybe they needed some humans to play with."
"Shit they're leaving." Kira whispered harshly watching the group of vamps leave with a couple of human girls.
"Come on lets go." Sage hurriedly grabbed Kiras' hand and pulled her towards the exit.
The group of 7 vampires were outside waiting for them.
"We were expecting you." a blond vampire said to them. "We have been dying to kill you Sains. You have been getting in our way far to long." The vampire charged at Kira claws and teeth out ready for blood. Sidestepping Kira brought her hand up and punched the vampire in the chest making the blond vamp stagger. Kira leaped back to her spot next to Sage and nodded. Sage had a feral smile upon her face, palms turned up towards the sky glowing with black light. Running towards the group of vampires Sage relased the black energy hitting 2 vamps and turning them to dust.
The blond vampire jumped towards Kira slashing at her with claws and drawing blood on Kiras' arm. Kira growled her anger rising. Red light formed around her, eyes glowing yellow. The blond vampire jumped into the air and flew away. Kira turned and looked at the remaining 4 vamps. She released her red energy at them turning them into dust.
"That was easy, too easy. Do you think that was planned?" Sage asked wiping sweat from her for-head.
"I have no idea, but you're right that was way too easy. I wonder why that other vamp ran away. Should we go after him?"
"Nah, he's not worth it. We'll probably end up killing him later anyways." Kira nodded she knew Sage was most likely right. The vamp probably already flew away and they were to tired to go after him. Groaning Kira followed Sage back in the club while wondering who ever brought on the idea that you could kill a vampire with a stake in the heart? Didn't people know that you had to kill a vampire or Demon by hand, magic, or a Sain weapon?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6 more months passed since that day at the club and Kira was finished with her training. Sage and Kira had surpassed all their teachers put together and yet Kira felt that something terrible was going to happen and she didn't have enough power to stop it.
Laying down upon her bed Kira sighed and thought of the past 2 months and of a mysterious warning.
~~~~~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sage and Kira walked out of the art studio laughing.
"OMG! That was so funny. Did you see that vamp just flip and his head went right into the toilet. Oh that was hilarious." Sage sad laughing so hard tears were in her eyes.
"Sage have you ever wondered why it's just male vamps and demons we always fight? It's like there are no such thing as females."
Sage looked up and a look of curiosity over took her face. "You know I never thought of that. Why don't you ask Affinity when we see her. We'll be there in a few minute anyways."
Kira nodded and got lost in her thoughts.
"Ki we're here." Kira looked up and stared at the black marble mansion, that seemed like it came out of a horror movie with its eerie glow and the vines that climbed the walls like slugs stuck to a leaf. Gargoyles surrounded the mansion as if guarding the treasures that laid within. Kira was always awed by the mansion.
Sage opened the door and both woman entered. The inside of the house was very different then the outside. The walls were white and it had a homey feel to it. A middle aged woman with firey red hair and sparkling blue eyes walked up to them.
"Hello dears. I have been expecting you." Affinity led the girls into a hidden archway in the dark. A animal screeched and Kira jumped, her heart fluttering at a fast pace.
"What the hell was that Affinity?" Sage harshly whispered.
"HUSH!" Affinity glared at both of them. Her eyes icy with warning.
Both young woman stayed silent as they walked behind Affinity. Affinity stopped at a blood red door and the door creaked open. The room inside was beautiful. Plants surrounded the room making it look like a jungle. The walls were a emerald green matching the glorious colors of the plants. A pretty young woman sat upon a rug, her eyes closed. The air around her glittered and crackled with power. Kira looked at the young woman and knew she was Sain, though her powers needed training. But when it was trained she would be pretty good at fighting vamps.
The girl opened her eyes and Kira was met with a pair of emerald eyes that sparkled with mischief. Her black hair floated around her like a cape of ebony.
"Ladies this is Katrina. She is 18 and half Sain as well as half human. Her parents sent her to me to train her. The other teachers and I decided that instead of us training her it should be both of you, since after all, 1 of you alone is more powerful then all of us teachers combined." Affinity told the two young woman. "I shall leave you 3 to get acquainted."
"WOW! I never thought that I would ever meet the two most famous and beautiful Sains ever. And I want you to both know I have seen all your movies and your fashion shows. WOW Lydia and Kiara Hartley. Who would have thought!" Katrina's eyes glazed over with happiness.
Kira groaned in her mind. She didn't want to have to teach an obsessed fan. It was creepy. Kira was still shy and her confidence was still lacking. Stalkers and obsessed fans always reminded her of her step-father, who had no life.
"Katrina honey. UM well my real name is actually Kira. I go by the name Kiara so people don't stalk me."
Kira new it was all a lie. She didn't want Katrina to know about Rei or her others friends in Japan. At least not yet.
"And my real name is Sage. Un like Kira her I use an Alias because I don't want nasty vamps and demons to ruin my career."
"How is that possible?" Katrina looked puzzled. "I mean, you look like you always do on screen. How can you make it so the vamps and demons don't know it's really you."
Sage smiled in approval. "Well you see the first lesson you will learn from us is that magic is the best tool against vamps or demons. We are magicked so that when we are on screen or anywhere as Lydia and Kiara Hartley to vamps and demons we look nothing like our real self. But to you humans we look the same."
"OH……"
Kira laughed, maybe the girl wasn't so bad after all. "Kat we also want you to know that since your with us you will have to put up with paparazzi, stalkers, obsessed fans, and stupid oglers. Also you, yourself must never under any circumstances act like a obsessed fan. Got that?"
Katrina nodded a little scared of Kira, who looked very serious. Sage cracked up.
"Kat don't mind Kira. She hates Obsessed fans, stalkers and the shidig of the famous world. You should see how she acts when guys try to approach her. She is such a shrew. She always gives them the cold shoulder and if they don't leave her alone she gets nasty, swearing, kicking, hell even biting. Usually though, the guys just shrivel up and runaway with tails behind there legs when she gives them her bitchy glare."
"Sage I am not bitchy. Kat, I'm not bitchy, really. I just don't like most guys."
Katrina laughed and nodded. "I know how you feel. Augh such perverts."
Sages' mouth opened and closed like a fish. "Noooooooooo….. Kira how could you, she hates guys almost as much as you. Now what am I going to do? I'll be all alone."
Kira laughed. "Kat don't mind her she's such a drama queen."
"I see you have gotten to know each other better. That's good. Sage, Kira, Your training has officially finished. We have taught you both all we could, now you must teach yourself the rest." Kira nodded. "Also ladies Katrinas power is connected to plants and weather. So that means that Kira, since you have weather, death energy, fire, healing, shadow and midnight magic than you must train her in weather magic. Sage since you have plant, destruction, water and premonition you will train her in Plant magic. Both of you together should train her in combat and telekinesis. I also have something to tell you. It is my time to go soon. I may look middle aged, but I am already past my prime. I made my will and everything I own will go to you three. My money, my houses, my company VDX and my secrets." Affinity croaked
The three girls looked at each other oddly. "I know it's confusing right now, but I must tell you before it's too late the blond dark angel is my son and Elsi his half sister will be our destruction."
"Who's Elsi?" Katrina asked confused. Both Sage and Kira had a look of bafflement upon their faces.
"Elsi is my daughter. She is half Demon, ¼ Sain and ¼ human. A long time ago there was a prophecy.
A creature shall awaken
And darkness shall descend
Though hope is yet not gone
For warriors shall arise
To battle the evil being
And light the ebony skies
"That was only a little bit of the prophecy. My daughter found it and was enthralled by it. She left me to search for the evil and she has found a way to bring it back. It is a riddle and she has not yet found out the meaning. Please my dears protect this world and kill my daughter." The 3 young woman gasped at Affinitys' plea. "She found the riddle and sent it to me. I will tell it to you now so you can stop what she wants to happen. I don't know if I am doing the right thing though. I know my daughter expected me to tell a few Sains. She wants that to happen. She needs them to arise the dark one. But I know you three can defeat her.
Eternity I shall sleep
Till the light will fall
Bring to the world damnation
For to darkness I call
To find my entrapment
Follow the trail of blood
And when thee has found me
Give to me thy blood
To arise me from my slumber
A Sain must come to me
And give to me her heart
This Sain who is my queen to be
Destroy Sains thrice
When I shall awaken
The world will be doomed
For darkness is eternity
And earths ultimate destiny
That is the riddle. The only problem for Elsi is that she does not know who the queen to be is. You must stop her."
Affinity collapsed and breathing hard.
Kira, Sage, and Katrina ran to their old friend. Affinity slapped their hands away.
"You don't have enough time to dabble around. Go try to find out where Elsi is. That is my final wish. I have only a few minutes left. Take this letter and find my son. Goddess bless my dears." and with those as her last words Affinity died. The three young woman cried silent tears for there lost friend and there they decided there fate. Just by a single choice to protect the world and do as Affinity wished.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That was 2 months ago and still they could not find where Elsi was. Even with all the magic they had it was almost impossible to find her. Katrinas' training was going well and the fights with the vampires were getting to easy. Kira had a queasy feeling. Something was definitely not right. Not only was the vamp and demons fights getting easier, but more obsessed fans were irritating her. Kira needed to get out and away from the popularity. Even when she went to school there were fans there. At least one thing was going right and that was that the movies that starred her were not yet in Japan and hopefully when they did get there no one would recognize her. Hell who would?
"Ki you there?" Katrina asked poking her head threw the open door. Kira smiled
"yea Kat I'm here. So what did you want to know?"
"Awwwwww come on Ki, I don't always want something from you." Kira raised an eyebrow.
"Really?" Katrina humphed and sat at the edge of Kiras' bed.
"Ki tell me, whats your favourite magic?"
"Well I would have to say….. Shadow and midnight!"
"How come I never see you using them?" Katrina asked curiously.
"Because, They're the most dangerous to use and the most rare."
"Really? How rare?"
"Well lets see the only other known person who has had Shadow was 1,000 years ago. And Midnight only comes from certain females from my mothers side, just like Sage and her destruction magic." Kira smirked at the look of awe on her best friends face.
"Ohhhh…… Hey Ki?"
"Hmmmmmm.."
"Do you miss Rei?"
"Kat I knew I shouldn't have told you about Rei. Your way to curious. Just like Sage."
Kat giggled. "No way I am not that curious!"
"Ok about Rei. Well you see I miss him, a lot! I guess you could say I still love him, but he loved the old Kira I guess."
"Kira your still the same. So what if you have more confidence, your more outgoing, and your look has changed? Your still clearly you. Your still nice to people, you still love to draw, you still hate most guys, and your still a little shy. The important things about you haven't changed. Deep down your still the same. Anyways everyone changes and I bet Rei has changed too. Who wouldn't after 1 year?"
"Your right. I'm sorry, I guess I still am the same deep down. Just like you're the same klutz we all know and love even though we tried to get you out of it."
"Exactly! Hey wait a minute!" Kat sighed and threw herself down onto the bed. "You know I so envy you and Sage. You guys are gorgeous and you don't even have to use make up and the fact that you guys eat so much and not gain one single pound. How is that fucking possible?"
"You think I'm beautiful?" Kira asked surprised. She didn't think herself beautiful, she always thought herself as plain.
"Augh and that's what pisses me off, you don't even know it. Oh well, hey at least now I'm famous with you guys."
"Yeah, isn't it funny a obsessed fan turned conceited because she's a star now. How can you like it?"
"How can you not?" Kat screeched.
"You and Sage are to much alike!"
"Hey stop talking shit about me!" Sage screamed as she walked threw the door. Kira looked up and saw the serious look on Sages' face and she knew something was wrong.
"Sage what's wrong?" Kat asked worried.
"I found out where Elsi is and none of you are going to like it." Sage said sitting down on the bed.
"Sage just tell us." Kira demanded
"Elsi is……. She's in Japan. I'm sorry Kira." Kira just looked at Sage in shock. She shook her head and fell back upon the bed. Japan… the place she wanted to get away from. Away from her past.
"Fine we'll go to Japan." Kira sighed out.
"Ki are you sure?" Kat asked worried.
"I'm positive! We have to do this for Affinity." Sage nodded.
"Alright then. It'll take about 2 weeks to get everything together. Affinity has a house, well not really a house, more like a mansion in Tokyo, it's one of the ones she gave to us. There is also a college there that is pretty close by the mansion. I think it's called Tokyo University. So while we're there you don't have to worry about schooling."
"Tokyo? Well at least it's not anywhere near Rei. I guess I'll take some art classes and business classes to learn more on how to take over the company." Kira said
"Don't you think we should sell the company?" Kat asked
"No it would be rude to Affinity. She gave us the company to take care of for her." Sage told Kat.
"Don't you think it's a little late to be trying to get into TU?" Kira questioned
"Actually didn't you two send in a application for TU?" Sage looked at both Kira and Kat
"Yeah I sent mine!" Kat said cheerfully.
"Kira?"
"Yeah I sent it, but I wasn't going to accept. I did it because you told me too." Kira looked down at the floor.
"Ki I understand don't worry. What's the odds that Rei is going to go to TU? And I thought you said that he didn't want to go to college."
"yeah that's what he said, but you never know."
"Oh well, We'll see when we get there hmmm….. Anyways I am going to apply for a teaching job there. So you both better start packing your clothes because I don't know How long were going to be there."
"Please tell me I can bring my baby?" Kira begged.
"Yeah you can. I'm going to send my Motorcycle ahead of time. Ship it."
Kira sighed. "Thank God. I think the acceptance letters are going to come this week."
"Well start packing and off we go to Tokyo!" Kat screamed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
JAPAN
"Rei, you still miss her don't you?" Tatsuya asked
"Yeah man, what's there to say? The girl I loved I let get away. Did Harumi ever tell you where she went?"
"No. She just said that Kira left with her sister. I was wondering why she was crying that day when Kira came to talk to her. Kira must have told Harumi not to tell us until after she left. Wonder why she didn't want us to know."
"Tatsuya!" Harumi ran towards him and gave him a hug. "Hey Rei."
"Why are you so happy?" Rei asked
"OMG, you'll never guess. This American movie I heard about is finally out this week in Japan. Starring my favorite actresses. Lydia and Kiara Hartley as well as Kat Witman. (a/n: You knew it was coming.) Anyways it's called Destructions Retribution. It's has a lot of fighting as well as romance. You see Alexiana Droy, played by Sage Hartley is an assassin who is after Jay Lander Played by, some hot guy and his wife Zoe, played by Kat Witman is the one who wants him dead. But trouble arises when another assassin comes into the picture, Layla Sorday played by my ultimate favorite actresses Kiara Hartley. (a/n: no she doesn't know who Kiara really is.) She's like this really evil chic who hates Jay Lander and his cousin Roman Lander. I don't know why though. Anyways she fights all these other people who want her dead because it was her fault for some blown up city or something like that. So Layla meets up with Zoe and Alexiana and that's all I know about it."
"ok, so how do you know about these actresses?" Tatsuya looked at Harumi curiously.
"They're also models and I have been reading about them for the last 2 months."
"OOOOOkay."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2 WEEKS LATER
"come on hurry up. KIARA" Sage screamed
"Why do we have to go to school so soon. I mean we just got here two days ago." Kira whined "And don't blame me for being late. It was you guys who took so long in the freaking shower." Kira walked to her Jaguar XKR her "Baby". She was wearing dangerously low hip hugger jeans that had paint splatters all over it. Her top was a tight black sleeveless shirt with no back, held up from a small tie in the small of Kiras back and around her neck. The shirt was split in the middle showing her flat stomach and pierced belly button. Her favorite black combat boots were on her feet. A big black Gucci bag was hanging on her shoulder. Half of her hair was up the other half was left down. Around her neck was a black choker with a diamond in the middle. Her ears were adorned with diamond studs.
Kat was already in the car. She was wearing black pants and a tight emerald peasant top. On her head she wore a black cab hat off to the side. On her feet she wore emerald colored Heels. Around her neck a emerald necklace lay.
"Lydia we'll meet you there." Kira yelled and zoomed out of the mansions drive way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With Rei, Harumi, and Tatsuya.
"I can't believe you got me to go with you guys to college." Rei glared at Tatsuya.
"Come on man, they have a great racing team here, and a lot of classes that you need. I mean you can't always pay for getting your motorcycle fixed. So you can learn how to do it yourself."
"Yeah Rei, Tatsuya is right. And anyways if you want to be a Pro then keep racing here and you'll definitely make it." Harumi told Rei.
"Yeah I guess your right, but why do I have to take history? And…….." Rei was cut off by a loud scream.
"WHAT THE HELL! IT WAS SO NOT MY FAULT WE'RE LATE."
"YES IT IS KI."
"NO! WAS I THE ONE WHO WAS IN THE SHOWER FOREVER? NO! IT WAS YOU AND LYDIA."
"SO? LIVE WITH OUT A SHOWER!"
"EXCUSE ME? WHO'S THE ONE LATER THEN ME? LYDIA IS, SO I WOULD HAVE HAD TIME ANYWAYS."
"YOU KNOW YOU'RE REALLY BEING A TOTAL BITCH ABOUT THIS."
"YOU'RE THE ONE BLAMING IT ON ME KAT"
"GRRRRRRRRRRRRR…."
Rei looked at the teacher waiting for their new teacher. The womans' vein was throbbing she looked ready to explode. The yelling got louder until it was in front of the door.
"YOU KNOW YOU ARE REALLY PISSING ME OFF KAT!"
"WHY…….." The door opened and Kat was interrupted.
"YOUNG LADIES WILL YOU PLEASE BE QUITE."
Rei was staring at the old woman yell. That was a first.
"WHY DON'T YOU SHUT UP YOU OLD HAG!" Kat screamed
"OLD HAG?!" the old woman shrieked.
Rei looked at the girls who just came in. The one who yelled old hag was pretty, but it was the one next to her that caught his eye. She reminded him of someone and she was absolutely gorgeous. The two girls walked towards two seats in the front and sat down not even listening to the old woman who was ranting away. Both girl took off there jackets and all the guys in the room started to drool, ogle or have a nose bleed. Rei could see the blond girl roll her eyes.
The door opened again and a young woman in about her early twenties enter. She was wearing a business swuit and had a brief case. The old woman saw her and smirked.
"Hello. Miss Hartley, I presume." The old woman asked
"You presume correct."
"Well this is one of your classes and I have a few trouble makers for you."
"And who would they be?" Miss Hartley said eyeing both Kat and Kiara who were smiling innocently.
"These two Miss Hartley." The old woman smirked.
"I see and what do you have to say for yourself girls?"
Both girls just stayed smiling innocently not even saying anything.
"Kiara, Kat, just tell me already."
"Fine." Kat sighed. "I was blaming Ki for us being late and she denied it. I started yelling and then she yelled back and then I called that old hag over there a old hag."
"Yes and Lydia you gotta admit she is an old hag. I mean look at her and she's so creul." Kiara/Kira said.
Lydia/Sage smiled and shook her head. "ma'am you may leave now."
The old woman stuttered. "But aren't you going to do anything about them?"
"No because it is my fault they were late."
Sighing the old woman left.
Sage turned around and looked at her students. "My name is Lydia Hartley. But call me Lydia" Harumi gasped.
"OMG. That's who I thought you were, but I wasn't sure."
At the sound of Harumis voice the two new girls and the new teacher looked at her. All three seemed to pale.
"That must mean that you," Harumi pointed at Kira. "Are Kiara Hartley and You" Harumi pointed at Kat. "Are Kat Witman."
Kira audibly groaned. She looked at the rest of the students and her eyes lingered when they locked with Reis.
Harumi stared at Kira. "Whats wrong with her?" She asked.
Sage and Kat laughed. "She hates stalkers, obsessed fans, perverted guys, guys in general and her own popularity. She's not a bitch though, that is unless your one of the things she hates." Both woman said simultaneously as if they rehearsed that line many times.
Kira groaned again and banged her head on her desk. "This fucking sucks! Someone kill me now"

Chapter 2: Dangerous magic and the return.
6 months had passed and Kira was having a great time in NYC. Affinity was training both Sage and her in the ways of the Sain and their new powers. The training was hard, but for once, it was something Kira was good at other then art. One thing that frightened Kira was her power. At first she didn't mind the lighter and more peaceful part of her magick, but it was the dark side of herself that she feared. Like she told Affinity many times she didn't want to kill and destroy. Affinity would just chuckle and tell Kira that she would understand when she actually met the evil demons and vampires. Oh and how right Affinity was. Kira loved all of herself now, though she still hated to kill.
While in NYC Kira found out how many things she was actually good at. It was so different then Japan. The culture was different in and yet still a little bit alike. Kira realized that she was actually good at sports, while at school she didn't want anyone to notice her so she always didn't give sports a try, but here she was accepted. Kira found herself changing not only in body, but in mind. Kira remember the day that her body changes finally finished and still she was in shock when ever she looked in the mirror.
The short and scrawny girl was no longer, but in her place was a 5'8", curvy, and busty young woman almost to adult hood. Her once deep orange eyes (orange in some of the mangas) was now a silvery blue, like the moon, during a cloudless night. Her semi curly blond hair was still just down to her butt, but the sparkle in it was amazing. Her hair shimmered like stars. Kira laughed to herself thinking about what Harumi would say if she saw her now.
Especially if she saw Kiras' hair streaked with pink, which Kira got professionally done for a movie. Along with getting her hair dyed for a movie Kira also had to get the painful procedure of getting piercings . One in her belly button, 3 in her ears and one in her ear cartilage. If Sage would have had it her way, Kira probably would be having a lot more considering how many Sage herself had. And her excuse was "You're a Sain, you gotta look the part."
Kira sighed and walked down the stairs to meet Sage. Her 3 inch Prada heels clicking with every step. Kira was kind of disgusted with herself she was a fashion plait now and it was weird to her. The girl who once didn't like to reveal herself and wasn't outgoing was now a famous model and star. She thanked god that Sage told people Kiras' fake name: Kiara Hartley, alias to Kira Aso.
"Ki, come on we'll be late to the club. Do you have your fake idea?" Sage screamed from downstairs.
Kira descended down the stairs and smiled at Sage.
"Yes, I have it. Could you tell me again why we have to go clubbing today?"
"Well you see Affinity noticed a few sketchy guys at the club and she says they're vamps, maybe even demons. You see, this club that we are going to has been having some trouble, seems like there have been cases of people found dead or missing. So we are off to kick butt. You with me or not?"
Kira laughed and put her hair up in a pony tail. "Well someone has to watch your back and make sure you don't get your ass whooped."
"Ouch that was low Ki."
"Sorry, but still you know you need me or else you'll end up getting into some kind of trouble."
"But of course." Sage said sarcastically
Kira shook her head and ran out the door grabbing her car keys. Sage had tried many times to teach Kira how to ride a motorcycle, but motorcycles always reminded Kira of Rei and her heart was still bleeding. Anyways Kira was completely content with her baby. Her silver Jaguar XKR convertible.
"So you riding with me this time or am I going to have too ride with you Sage?"
"Well I guess I'll ride with you. It's pretty cold out."
"I'll say and I am so happy you didn't make me wear a skirt. Leather pants are fine for me thank you."
"Your just jealous because I have longer legs!"
Kira looked at Sage oddly.
"WHAT! It was only a joke."
"I know, but what freaks me out is the fact that you are getting cornier every day."
"Shut up!"
~~~~~~~
Kira and Sage arrived at the club when it was in full swing. The many dancing bodies were sweating, people were drunk and couples were either making out or were so drunk that they were having public sex. Kira turnd away from the perverted scene and looked around. The club was pretty clean, that is if you discounted all throw up and sweating bodies passed out on the floor. Kira eyed a group of guys at a corner. They glowed and she could sense it in her blood. They were vamps and they were up to no good.
Sage came to her side also looking warily at the vampires.
"What do you think they're up to?" Kira questioned
"I don't know, maybe they needed some humans to play with."
"Shit they're leaving." Kira whispered harshly watching the group of vamps leave with a couple of human girls.
"Come on lets go." Sage hurriedly grabbed Kiras' hand and pulled her towards the exit.
The group of 7 vampires were outside waiting for them.
"We were expecting you." a blond vampire said to them. "We have been dying to kill you Sains. You have been getting in our way far to long." The vampire charged at Kira claws and teeth out ready for blood. Sidestepping Kira brought her hand up and punched the vampire in the chest making the blond vamp stagger. Kira leaped back to her spot next to Sage and nodded. Sage had a feral smile upon her face, palms turned up towards the sky glowing with black light. Running towards the group of vampires Sage relased the black energy hitting 2 vamps and turning them to dust.
The blond vampire jumped towards Kira slashing at her with claws and drawing blood on Kiras' arm. Kira growled her anger rising. Red light formed around her, eyes glowing yellow. The blond vampire jumped into the air and flew away. Kira turned and looked at the remaining 4 vamps. She released her red energy at them turning them into dust.
"That was easy, too easy. Do you think that was planned?" Sage asked wiping sweat from her for-head.
"I have no idea, but you're right that was way too easy. I wonder why that other vamp ran away. Should we go after him?"
"Nah, he's not worth it. We'll probably end up killing him later anyways." Kira nodded she knew Sage was most likely right. The vamp probably already flew away and they were to tired to go after him. Groaning Kira followed Sage back in the club while wondering who ever brought on the idea that you could kill a vampire with a stake in the heart? Didn't people know that you had to kill a vampire or Demon by hand, magic, or a Sain weapon?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6 more months passed since that day at the club and Kira was finished with her training. Sage and Kira had surpassed all their teachers put together and yet Kira felt that something terrible was going to happen and she didn't have enough power to stop it.
Laying down upon her bed Kira sighed and thought of the past 2 months and of a mysterious warning.
~~~~~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sage and Kira walked out of the art studio laughing.
"OMG! That was so funny. Did you see that vamp just flip and his head went right into the toilet. Oh that was hilarious." Sage sad laughing so hard tears were in her eyes.
"Sage have you ever wondered why it's just male vamps and demons we always fight? It's like there are no such thing as females."
Sage looked up and a look of curiosity over took her face. "You know I never thought of that. Why don't you ask Affinity when we see her. We'll be there in a few minute anyways."
Kira nodded and got lost in her thoughts.
"Ki we're here." Kira looked up and stared at the black marble mansion, that seemed like it came out of a horror movie with its eerie glow and the vines that climbed the walls like slugs stuck to a leaf. Gargoyles surrounded the mansion as if guarding the treasures that laid within. Kira was always awed by the mansion.
Sage opened the door and both woman entered. The inside of the house was very different then the outside. The walls were white and it had a homey feel to it. A middle aged woman with firey red hair and sparkling blue eyes walked up to them.
"Hello dears. I have been expecting you." Affinity led the girls into a hidden archway in the dark. A animal screeched and Kira jumped, her heart fluttering at a fast pace.
"What the hell was that Affinity?" Sage harshly whispered.
"HUSH!" Affinity glared at both of them. Her eyes icy with warning.
Both young woman stayed silent as they walked behind Affinity. Affinity stopped at a blood red door and the door creaked open. The room inside was beautiful. Plants surrounded the room making it look like a jungle. The walls were a emerald green matching the glorious colors of the plants. A pretty young woman sat upon a rug, her eyes closed. The air around her glittered and crackled with power. Kira looked at the young woman and knew she was Sain, though her powers needed training. But when it was trained she would be pretty good at fighting vamps.
The girl opened her eyes and Kira was met with a pair of emerald eyes that sparkled with mischief. Her black hair floated around her like a cape of ebony.
"Ladies this is Katrina. She is 18 and half Sain as well as half human. Her parents sent her to me to train her. The other teachers and I decided that instead of us training her it should be both of you, since after all, 1 of you alone is more powerful then all of us teachers combined." Affinity told the two young woman. "I shall leave you 3 to get acquainted."
"WOW! I never thought that I would ever meet the two most famous and beautiful Sains ever. And I want you to both know I have seen all your movies and your fashion shows. WOW Lydia and Kiara Hartley. Who would have thought!" Katrina's eyes glazed over with happiness.
Kira groaned in her mind. She didn't want to have to teach an obsessed fan. It was creepy. Kira was still shy and her confidence was still lacking. Stalkers and obsessed fans always reminded her of her step-father, who had no life.
"Katrina honey. UM well my real name is actually Kira. I go by the name Kiara so people don't stalk me."
Kira new it was all a lie. She didn't want Katrina to know about Rei or her others friends in Japan. At least not yet.
"And my real name is Sage. Un like Kira her I use an Alias because I don't want nasty vamps and demons to ruin my career."
"How is that possible?" Katrina looked puzzled. "I mean, you look like you always do on screen. How can you make it so the vamps and demons don't know it's really you."
Sage smiled in approval. "Well you see the first lesson you will learn from us is that magic is the best tool against vamps or demons. We are magicked so that when we are on screen or anywhere as Lydia and Kiara Hartley to vamps and demons we look nothing like our real self. But to you humans we look the same."
"OH……"
Kira laughed, maybe the girl wasn't so bad after all. "Kat we also want you to know that since your with us you will have to put up with paparazzi, stalkers, obsessed fans, and stupid oglers. Also you, yourself must never under any circumstances act like a obsessed fan. Got that?"
Katrina nodded a little scared of Kira, who looked very serious. Sage cracked up.
"Kat don't mind Kira. She hates Obsessed fans, stalkers and the shidig of the famous world. You should see how she acts when guys try to approach her. She is such a shrew. She always gives them the cold shoulder and if they don't leave her alone she gets nasty, swearing, kicking, hell even biting. Usually though, the guys just shrivel up and runaway with tails behind there legs when she gives them her bitchy glare."
"Sage I am not bitchy. Kat, I'm not bitchy, really. I just don't like most guys."
Katrina laughed and nodded. "I know how you feel. Augh such perverts."
Sages' mouth opened and closed like a fish. "Noooooooooo….. Kira how could you, she hates guys almost as much as you. Now what am I going to do? I'll be all alone."
Kira laughed. "Kat don't mind her she's such a drama queen."
"I see you have gotten to know each other better. That's good. Sage, Kira, Your training has officially finished. We have taught you both all we could, now you must teach yourself the rest." Kira nodded. "Also ladies Katrinas power is connected to plants and weather. So that means that Kira, since you have weather, death energy, fire, healing, shadow and midnight magic than you must train her in weather magic. Sage since you have plant, destruction, water and premonition you will train her in Plant magic. Both of you together should train her in combat and telekinesis. I also have something to tell you. It is my time to go soon. I may look middle aged, but I am already past my prime. I made my will and everything I own will go to you three. My money, my houses, my company VDX and my secrets." Affinity croaked
The three girls looked at each other oddly. "I know it's confusing right now, but I must tell you before it's too late the blond dark angel is my son and Elsi his half sister will be our destruction."
"Who's Elsi?" Katrina asked confused. Both Sage and Kira had a look of bafflement upon their faces.
"Elsi is my daughter. She is half Demon, ¼ Sain and ¼ human. A long time ago there was a prophecy.
A creature shall awaken
And darkness shall descend
Though hope is yet not gone
For warriors shall arise
To battle the evil being
And light the ebony skies
"That was only a little bit of the prophecy. My daughter found it and was enthralled by it. She left me to search for the evil and she has found a way to bring it back. It is a riddle and she has not yet found out the meaning. Please my dears protect this world and kill my daughter." The 3 young woman gasped at Affinitys' plea. "She found the riddle and sent it to me. I will tell it to you now so you can stop what she wants to happen. I don't know if I am doing the right thing though. I know my daughter expected me to tell a few Sains. She wants that to happen. She needs them to arise the dark one. But I know you three can defeat her.
Eternity I shall sleep
Till the light will fall
Bring to the world damnation
For to darkness I call
To find my entrapment
Follow the trail of blood
And when thee has found me
Give to me thy blood
To arise me from my slumber
A Sain must come to me
And give to me her heart
This Sain who is my queen to be
Destroy Sains thrice
When I shall awaken
The world will be doomed
For darkness is eternity
And earths ultimate destiny
That is the riddle. The only problem for Elsi is that she does not know who the queen to be is. You must stop her."
Affinity collapsed and breathing hard.
Kira, Sage, and Katrina ran to their old friend. Affinity slapped their hands away.
"You don't have enough time to dabble around. Go try to find out where Elsi is. That is my final wish. I have only a few minutes left. Take this letter and find my son. Goddess bless my dears." and with those as her last words Affinity died. The three young woman cried silent tears for there lost friend and there they decided there fate. Just by a single choice to protect the world and do as Affinity wished.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That was 2 months ago and still they could not find where Elsi was. Even with all the magic they had it was almost impossible to find her. Katrinas' training was going well and the fights with the vampires were getting to easy. Kira had a queasy feeling. Something was definitely not right. Not only was the vamp and demons fights getting easier, but more obsessed fans were irritating her. Kira needed to get out and away from the popularity. Even when she went to school there were fans there. At least one thing was going right and that was that the movies that starred her were not yet in Japan and hopefully when they did get there no one would recognize her. Hell who would?
"Ki you there?" Katrina asked poking her head threw the open door. Kira smiled
"yea Kat I'm here. So what did you want to know?"
"Awwwwww come on Ki, I don't always want something from you." Kira raised an eyebrow.
"Really?" Katrina humphed and sat at the edge of Kiras' bed.
"Ki tell me, whats your favourite magic?"
"Well I would have to say….. Shadow and midnight!"
"How come I never see you using them?" Katrina asked curiously.
"Because, They're the most dangerous to use and the most rare."
"Really? How rare?"
"Well lets see the only other known person who has had Shadow was 1,000 years ago. And Midnight only comes from certain females from my mothers side, just like Sage and her destruction magic." Kira smirked at the look of awe on her best friends face.
"Ohhhh…… Hey Ki?"
"Hmmmmmm.."
"Do you miss Rei?"
"Kat I knew I shouldn't have told you about Rei. Your way to curious. Just like Sage."
Kat giggled. "No way I am not that curious!"
"Ok about Rei. Well you see I miss him, a lot! I guess you could say I still love him, but he loved the old Kira I guess."
"Kira your still the same. So what if you have more confidence, your more outgoing, and your look has changed? Your still clearly you. Your still nice to people, you still love to draw, you still hate most guys, and your still a little shy. The important things about you haven't changed. Deep down your still the same. Anyways everyone changes and I bet Rei has changed too. Who wouldn't after 1 year?"
"Your right. I'm sorry, I guess I still am the same deep down. Just like you're the same klutz we all know and love even though we tried to get you out of it."
"Exactly! Hey wait a minute!" Kat sighed and threw herself down onto the bed. "You know I so envy you and Sage. You guys are gorgeous and you don't even have to use make up and the fact that you guys eat so much and not gain one single pound. How is that fucking possible?"
"You think I'm beautiful?" Kira asked surprised. She didn't think herself beautiful, she always thought herself as plain.
"Augh and that's what pisses me off, you don't even know it. Oh well, hey at least now I'm famous with you guys."
"Yeah, isn't it funny a obsessed fan turned conceited because she's a star now. How can you like it?"
"How can you not?" Kat screeched.
"You and Sage are to much alike!"
"Hey stop talking shit about me!" Sage screamed as she walked threw the door. Kira looked up and saw the serious look on Sages' face and she knew something was wrong.
"Sage what's wrong?" Kat asked worried.
"I found out where Elsi is and none of you are going to like it." Sage said sitting down on the bed.
"Sage just tell us." Kira demanded
"Elsi is……. She's in Japan. I'm sorry Kira." Kira just looked at Sage in shock. She shook her head and fell back upon the bed. Japan… the place she wanted to get away from. Away from her past.
"Fine we'll go to Japan." Kira sighed out.
"Ki are you sure?" Kat asked worried.
"I'm positive! We have to do this for Affinity." Sage nodded.
"Alright then. It'll take about 2 weeks to get everything together. Affinity has a house, well not really a house, more like a mansion in Tokyo, it's one of the ones she gave to us. There is also a college there that is pretty close by the mansion. I think it's called Tokyo University. So while we're there you don't have to worry about schooling."
"Tokyo? Well at least it's not anywhere near Rei. I guess I'll take some art classes and business classes to learn more on how to take over the company." Kira said
"Don't you think we should sell the company?" Kat asked
"No it would be rude to Affinity. She gave us the company to take care of for her." Sage told Kat.
"Don't you think it's a little late to be trying to get into TU?" Kira questioned
"Actually didn't you two send in a application for TU?" Sage looked at both Kira and Kat
"Yeah I sent mine!" Kat said cheerfully.
"Kira?"
"Yeah I sent it, but I wasn't going to accept. I did it because you told me too." Kira looked down at the floor.
"Ki I understand don't worry. What's the odds that Rei is going to go to TU? And I thought you said that he didn't want to go to college."
"yeah that's what he said, but you never know."
"Oh well, We'll see when we get there hmmm….. Anyways I am going to apply for a teaching job there. So you both better start packing your clothes because I don't know How long were going to be there."
"Please tell me I can bring my baby?" Kira begged.
"Yeah you can. I'm going to send my Motorcycle ahead of time. Ship it."
Kira sighed. "Thank God. I think the acceptance letters are going to come this week."
"Well start packing and off we go to Tokyo!" Kat screamed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
JAPAN
"Rei, you still miss her don't you?" Tatsuya asked
"Yeah man, what's there to say? The girl I loved I let get away. Did Harumi ever tell you where she went?"
"No. She just said that Kira left with her sister. I was wondering why she was crying that day when Kira came to talk to her. Kira must have told Harumi not to tell us until after she left. Wonder why she didn't want us to know."
"Tatsuya!" Harumi ran towards him and gave him a hug. "Hey Rei."
"Why are you so happy?" Rei asked
"OMG, you'll never guess. This American movie I heard about is finally out this week in Japan. Starring my favorite actresses. Lydia and Kiara Hartley as well as Kat Witman. (a/n: You knew it was coming.) Anyways it's called Destructions Retribution. It's has a lot of fighting as well as romance. You see Alexiana Droy, played by Sage Hartley is an assassin who is after Jay Lander Played by, some hot guy and his wife Zoe, played by Kat Witman is the one who wants him dead. But trouble arises when another assassin comes into the picture, Layla Sorday played by my ultimate favorite actresses Kiara Hartley. (a/n: no she doesn't know who Kiara really is.) She's like this really evil chic who hates Jay Lander and his cousin Roman Lander. I don't know why though. Anyways she fights all these other people who want her dead because it was her fault for some blown up city or something like that. So Layla meets up with Zoe and Alexiana and that's all I know about it."
"ok, so how do you know about these actresses?" Tatsuya looked at Harumi curiously.
"They're also models and I have been reading about them for the last 2 months."
"OOOOOkay."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2 WEEKS LATER
"come on hurry up. KIARA" Sage screamed
"Why do we have to go to school so soon. I mean we just got here two days ago." Kira whined "And don't blame me for being late. It was you guys who took so long in the freaking shower." Kira walked to her Jaguar XKR her "Baby". She was wearing dangerously low hip hugger jeans that had paint splatters all over it. Her top was a tight black sleeveless shirt with no back, held up from a small tie in the small of Kiras back and around her neck. The shirt was split in the middle showing her flat stomach and pierced belly button. Her favorite black combat boots were on her feet. A big black Gucci bag was hanging on her shoulder. Half of her hair was up the other half was left down. Around her neck was a black choker with a diamond in the middle. Her ears were adorned with diamond studs.
Kat was already in the car. She was wearing black pants and a tight emerald peasant top. On her head she wore a black cab hat off to the side. On her feet she wore emerald colored Heels. Around her neck a emerald necklace lay.
"Lydia we'll meet you there." Kira yelled and zoomed out of the mansions drive way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With Rei, Harumi, and Tatsuya.
"I can't believe you got me to go with you guys to college." Rei glared at Tatsuya.
"Come on man, they have a great racing team here, and a lot of classes that you need. I mean you can't always pay for getting your motorcycle fixed. So you can learn how to do it yourself."
"Yeah Rei, Tatsuya is right. And anyways if you want to be a Pro then keep racing here and you'll definitely make it." Harumi told Rei.
"Yeah I guess your right, but why do I have to take history? And…….." Rei was cut off by a loud scream.
"WHAT THE HELL! IT WAS SO NOT MY FAULT WE'RE LATE."
"YES IT IS KI."
"NO! WAS I THE ONE WHO WAS IN THE SHOWER FOREVER? NO! IT WAS YOU AND LYDIA."
"SO? LIVE WITH OUT A SHOWER!"
"EXCUSE ME? WHO'S THE ONE LATER THEN ME? LYDIA IS, SO I WOULD HAVE HAD TIME ANYWAYS."
"YOU KNOW YOU'RE REALLY BEING A TOTAL BITCH ABOUT THIS."
"YOU'RE THE ONE BLAMING IT ON ME KAT"
"GRRRRRRRRRRRRR…."
Rei looked at the teacher waiting for their new teacher. The womans' vein was throbbing she looked ready to explode. The yelling got louder until it was in front of the door.
"YOU KNOW YOU ARE REALLY PISSING ME OFF KAT!"
"WHY…….." The door opened and Kat was interrupted.
"YOUNG LADIES WILL YOU PLEASE BE QUITE."
Rei was staring at the old woman yell. That was a first.
"WHY DON'T YOU SHUT UP YOU OLD HAG!" Kat screamed
"OLD HAG?!" the old woman shrieked.
Rei looked at the girls who just came in. The one who yelled old hag was pretty, but it was the one next to her that caught his eye. She reminded him of someone and she was absolutely gorgeous. The two girls walked towards two seats in the front and sat down not even listening to the old woman who was ranting away. Both girl took off there jackets and all the guys in the room started to drool, ogle or have a nose bleed. Rei could see the blond girl roll her eyes.
The door opened again and a young woman in about her early twenties enter. She was wearing a business swuit and had a brief case. The old woman saw her and smirked.
"Hello. Miss Hartley, I presume." The old woman asked
"You presume correct."
"Well this is one of your classes and I have a few trouble makers for you."
"And who would they be?" Miss Hartley said eyeing both Kat and Kiara who were smiling innocently.
"These two Miss Hartley." The old woman smirked.
"I see and what do you have to say for yourself girls?"
Both girls just stayed smiling innocently not even saying anything.
"Kiara, Kat, just tell me already."
"Fine." Kat sighed. "I was blaming Ki for us being late and she denied it. I started yelling and then she yelled back and then I called that old hag over there a old hag."
"Yes and Lydia you gotta admit she is an old hag. I mean look at her and she's so creul." Kiara/Kira said.
Lydia/Sage smiled and shook her head. "ma'am you may leave now."
The old woman stuttered. "But aren't you going to do anything about them?"
"No because it is my fault they were late."
Sighing the old woman left.
Sage turned around and looked at her students. "My name is Lydia Hartley. But call me Lydia" Harumi gasped.
"OMG. That's who I thought you were, but I wasn't sure."
At the sound of Harumis voice the two new girls and the new teacher looked at her. All three seemed to pale.
"That must mean that you," Harumi pointed at Kira. "Are Kiara Hartley and You" Harumi pointed at Kat. "Are Kat Witman."
Kira audibly groaned. She looked at the rest of the students and her eyes lingered when they locked with Reis.
Harumi stared at Kira. "Whats wrong with her?" She asked.
Sage and Kat laughed. "She hates stalkers, obsessed fans, perverted guys, guys in general and her own popularity. She's not a bitch though, that is unless your one of the things she hates." Both woman said simultaneously as if they rehearsed that line many times.
Kira groaned again and banged her head on her desk. "This fucking sucks! Someone kill me now"
TO BE CONTINUED
WEIRD ENDING I KNOW!
So she's finally back in Japan and she finally sees Rei again after 1 year. What more could a girl ask for? I hope no one is confused with the Alias's.
HAHA, if you want more you better review. I know it's been a while, but I promise if I get a lot of reviews then I'll be very happy and I shall write faster! I promise! See you next chapter!
